WEBVTT - Nick Bosa Recaps His Offseason Training, Highlights Defensive Lineman | Press Pass

0:00:02.480 --> 0:00:04.160
<v Speaker 1>I'll inspired the mustache.

0:00:05.000 --> 0:00:07.240
<v Speaker 2>Uh no, I kind of been rocking it in the

0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:09.120
<v Speaker 2>off season change up.

0:00:12.960 --> 0:00:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Do you feel like the defensive line group has shaped

0:00:15.000 --> 0:00:17.160
<v Speaker 1>up with all the new additions that you've added during

0:00:17.160 --> 0:00:17.800
<v Speaker 1>the off season.

0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:22.360
<v Speaker 2>Do you think what was it good? I liked how

0:00:22.360 --> 0:00:25.120
<v Speaker 2>it was going. I liked how the edge guys were

0:00:25.160 --> 0:00:28.639
<v Speaker 2>starting to develop and get used to the scheme. Floyd

0:00:28.640 --> 0:00:33.519
<v Speaker 2>looks great, which is expected, but yeah, I like I

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:34.720
<v Speaker 2>like all the additions.

0:00:34.920 --> 0:00:35.760
<v Speaker 3>Really good. Dudes.

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:38.880
<v Speaker 2>We had a nice d line dinner before we left

0:00:39.240 --> 0:00:41.599
<v Speaker 2>to get to know each other a little bit, and

0:00:41.640 --> 0:00:42.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm excited.

0:00:44.400 --> 0:00:46.640
<v Speaker 1>Did you talk to Brandon and Yuget all about your contract?

0:00:46.960 --> 0:00:49.360
<v Speaker 1>About the contract negotiations, I know you just went through

0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 1>YOURMS as well.

0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:52.760
<v Speaker 3>I talked to him early in the off season, but

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:54.880
<v Speaker 3>not for a while.

0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:59.240
<v Speaker 1>It can be really tough what you hear from the organization,

0:00:59.400 --> 0:01:01.080
<v Speaker 1>and you have to let some of that go.

0:01:02.240 --> 0:01:06.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's business, and I think everybody understands that. Sometimes

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:08.600
<v Speaker 2>when the players are in the position you were last

0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:11.280
<v Speaker 2>year and it goes on, there's a criticism that you're

0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:13.920
<v Speaker 2>being selfish trying to get the most amount of money

0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:14.240
<v Speaker 2>you can.

0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:18.360
<v Speaker 3>How did you sort of navigate that criticism, I just

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 3>don't pay attention.

0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Have you been able to talk to Drey at all

0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:24.200
<v Speaker 1>and what are his spirits like.

0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:26.039
<v Speaker 2>If you have, Yeah, it was just in the weight

0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:30.680
<v Speaker 2>room with him, and he seems really good. He's sticking

0:01:30.720 --> 0:01:34.119
<v Speaker 2>to the plan, doesn't want to get ahead of the plan,

0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:36.360
<v Speaker 2>even though he's starting to feel really good. So just

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:39.319
<v Speaker 2>trying to stick to what the trainers have for him

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:42.640
<v Speaker 2>and be ready when that plan is set for.

0:01:44.160 --> 0:01:46.080
<v Speaker 1>What did you change anything up at all in your

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:48.960
<v Speaker 1>off season workouts? How would you describe kind of what

0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:50.480
<v Speaker 1>you put yourself through in the off season.

0:01:51.360 --> 0:01:54.920
<v Speaker 2>It was a good, good offseason. Took it slow after

0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:58.360
<v Speaker 2>a really long year. I think I kind of built

0:01:58.360 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 2>it up better than I have in the past. But

0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:05.320
<v Speaker 2>me and Joey did a really good job and I

0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:07.600
<v Speaker 2>think I mean as good as shape as I'll be in.

0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:12.120
<v Speaker 2>And we've made some tweaks here and there, nothing too crazy.

0:02:12.160 --> 0:02:16.680
<v Speaker 2>But I think it's gonna be good results yourself.

0:02:16.360 --> 0:02:17.919
<v Speaker 1>Having to change things up a little bit more, just

0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:21.120
<v Speaker 1>because you continue to go deep into these postseasons and that.

0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:22.040
<v Speaker 3>How do you feel that.

0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:25.000
<v Speaker 2>Kind of wear and tear at up over Yeah, there's

0:02:25.040 --> 0:02:28.600
<v Speaker 2>plenty of time in the off season to take it slow,

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:32.560
<v Speaker 2>and sometimes I get antsy and want to get after

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:35.920
<v Speaker 2>it quicker. But as I go in my career, I

0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:39.760
<v Speaker 2>understand that you have to be you have to build

0:02:39.760 --> 0:02:42.400
<v Speaker 2>it up at the right times, and especially when you're

0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:46.959
<v Speaker 2>playing twenty game seasons, just building it up slow and

0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:49.160
<v Speaker 2>peaking at the right time. And this year was much

0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:52.079
<v Speaker 2>easier with knowing when I'm going to report. Last year

0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:55.400
<v Speaker 2>is tough with I was kind of in no man's

0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:57.600
<v Speaker 2>land for a month and a half not really knowing,

0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:00.440
<v Speaker 2>so it's tough to really set it up the right way,

0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:05.480
<v Speaker 2>but much much more structured this year. When you go

0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:11.040
<v Speaker 2>through so many excruciating playoff losses, is doubt ever creep

0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:12.079
<v Speaker 2>in your mind, like can this?

0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:15.200
<v Speaker 3>Will we ever win a Super Bowl?

0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:21.280
<v Speaker 2>It does when when you lose the games, but I

0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 2>think that passes and then you get to work and

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>you really have no other options but grind it out again.

0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 1>A lot of guys say, like, right afterwards, you can't

0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:36.680
<v Speaker 1>imagine trying to climb the mountain again.

0:03:36.880 --> 0:03:39.640
<v Speaker 3>It seems like too much. At what point the off season.

0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:44.120
<v Speaker 2>Or I think by the end of the off season,

0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm always ready to get back to work. That's kind

0:03:47.320 --> 0:03:51.120
<v Speaker 2>of the nice thing about having two halves of your year.

0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:54.120
<v Speaker 2>I spend half my year in Florida and half my

0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:56.960
<v Speaker 2>year out here, so by the end of the season,

0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:58.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm ready to get home, and by the end of

0:04:00.680 --> 0:04:02.320
<v Speaker 2>my time at home, I'm ready to get to work.

0:04:02.440 --> 0:04:03.560
<v Speaker 2>So it's a good split.

0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:08.800
<v Speaker 3>Dad was a D lineman.

0:04:08.840 --> 0:04:10.760
<v Speaker 1>Do you guys, do you guys talk D line?

0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:12.440
<v Speaker 3>D lines were so technique rich.

0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:15.600
<v Speaker 2>Do you guys talk D line play and get offs

0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 2>and moves and that kind of thing.

0:04:17.240 --> 0:04:18.880
<v Speaker 3>Does he want to talk to you and Joey about

0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:20.760
<v Speaker 3>that kind of stuff? No, not really.

0:04:21.360 --> 0:04:26.400
<v Speaker 2>He's from a different era, a lot different, a lot

0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:27.440
<v Speaker 2>different game back.

0:04:27.279 --> 0:04:35.560
<v Speaker 3>Then, and he gives me his observations, but not too

0:04:35.640 --> 0:04:37.560
<v Speaker 3>much advice from Dad.

0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:40.240
<v Speaker 1>Drake Jackson Ben, I know he wanted to be a

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 1>sponge when he first caught here. How is he that?

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:44.200
<v Speaker 1>I know he's been around but.

0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Injured, he said, how is he doing? He's doing great.

0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.920
<v Speaker 2>It's tough when you're injured. It's kind of lonely and

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:56.279
<v Speaker 2>you don't feel a part of it. Everybody's going out

0:04:56.279 --> 0:04:58.120
<v Speaker 2>to practice and you're in the weight room and in

0:04:58.160 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 2>the training room all day, so it's kind of a

0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:04.840
<v Speaker 2>tough road and gets lonely, so just trying to support

0:05:04.920 --> 0:05:08.920
<v Speaker 2>him through it and hopefully gets back to himself. The

0:05:09.040 --> 0:05:11.200
<v Speaker 2>Chargers were making a lot of moves early in this

0:05:11.279 --> 0:05:12.880
<v Speaker 2>offseason and cutting.

0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:15.200
<v Speaker 1>Did you ever allow your mind to think, Okay, if

0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.599
<v Speaker 1>Joey was available, what it would be like him on

0:05:17.640 --> 0:05:18.240
<v Speaker 1>the other end of you.

0:05:18.960 --> 0:05:19.400
<v Speaker 3>I did.

0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:24.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was fun to think about, but I think

0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:26.640
<v Speaker 2>he wanted to stick with the team and be a

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:29.920
<v Speaker 2>part of hopefully they're turning it around. I think they

0:05:29.960 --> 0:05:32.320
<v Speaker 2>have the people to do it, but haven't really had

0:05:32.360 --> 0:05:34.680
<v Speaker 2>the everything come together.

0:05:35.839 --> 0:05:36.799
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I'm excited.

0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:38.560
<v Speaker 2>He's been there for a long time, so it would

0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:40.480
<v Speaker 2>be a shame if he left when they turned it around.

0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:43.000
<v Speaker 3>If you have a chance to meet Steph forty nine k,

0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:46.080
<v Speaker 3>the Instagram influencer that kind of mixed you, and what

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:49.120
<v Speaker 3>do you think of the impressions? I haven't met her.

0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:54.719
<v Speaker 3>They're good. I guess they kind of annoyed me in

0:05:54.720 --> 0:05:59.599
<v Speaker 3>the beginning, but I'm over it, so I guess I

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:00.320
<v Speaker 3>guess good.

0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:03.680
<v Speaker 1>Do you watch the Olympics in episode? Have the favorite sport?

0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:12.080
<v Speaker 3>I haven't watched yet. I don't know. I'm not not

0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:14.200
<v Speaker 3>too big of an Olympic. I like the gymnastics. It's

0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 3>fun to watch soccer.

0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:21.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you have a chance to watch receiver And what

0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:23.000
<v Speaker 1>did you think if he did watch?

0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:26.479
<v Speaker 3>Like, is there anything you took away from your teammates watch?

0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:33.560
<v Speaker 3>I didn't watch it. No in the episode. Yeah, well

0:06:33.800 --> 0:06:37.479
<v Speaker 3>I think my dad told me. What was it? George

0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:41.279
<v Speaker 3>has his birthday party? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:44.679
<v Speaker 2>I was hoping they didn't have a mic too close

0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:48.599
<v Speaker 2>to me at the party.

0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:49.000
<v Speaker 3>Thanks.
