00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 1: Um, you never lost an opener in Alabama? Um really

00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: didn't come close. Did you ever lose any an opener

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: in any any other um um season of your life

4
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:12,920
Speaker 1: in high school or earlier than that. I don't believe

5
00:00:12,920 --> 00:00:16,360
Speaker 1: I have. You have. You don't believe I don't believe

Speaker 1: not oh and one does? Does that help a springboard

10
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:31,320
Speaker 1: a team when you want to know when you win

11
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 1: that first room, I mean the first game of the

12
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: first game, it's a long season. Um, when loser drawers,

13
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 1: you want to go out there and compete, fight hard,

14
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 1: and just you know, you guys an opportunity to get

15
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 1: better as well, Oh and one, one and oh. I

16
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: mean it's going to be a week too, you know. So,

17
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,240
Speaker 1: um and and have you found in all these years

18
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: where you were want to know that a lot of

19
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: people said how good the team was, you know what

20
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 1: I mean? And sometimes it's true and sometimes it's not.

21
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: But there's a lot of overreaction to the first game

22
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 1: win allom, isn't there? Yeah? Yeah, but I mean that's expected.

23
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: I mean the first game, the first time people have

24
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: got the opportunity to see a team in live action,

25
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 1: So everybody's gonna have their own takes, you know. So

26
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: I'm just focused on going out there and you know,

27
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: competing the best way that I can and uh, with

28
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: my team must succeed. Thank you, I'm cannavan. It took

29
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: me out of order. Um heaven, what did I assumed

30
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 1: during the off season? You did a lot of prep work.

31
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,320
Speaker 1: How much is to throw you off when a guy

32
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 1: like Harold Landry, who's pretty much lined up on would

33
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: have been on your side, gets hurt. Do you have

34
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: to go to plan B Now? No, I mean that

35
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: that doesn't change anything. I mean, they're gonna have a

36
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: guy that's in his place that I'm gonna have to block.

37
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 1: So I mean that doesn't really change anything for me

38
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 1: at all. So would you look at Autry or would

39
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: you look at everybody? Yeah? I watched film on everybody.

40
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: I have studying all the with guys, thank you. Brian's

41
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: on Leavy, Hey haven't. So I'm just curious it's here,

42
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 1: like your NFL debut, your first real game is here.

43
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: What emotions do you feel you have any family coming

44
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 1: to it? Like, what how you feel in six days

45
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,119
Speaker 1: out about the opener? I feel amazing, I feel awesome. Man,

46
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: my mom and my dad they're going to be at

47
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 1: the game to support me, and just a blessing. Man,

48
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: Just a testament, you know, to the hardwork that it

49
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 1: took to get here, for sure. But I'm just excited,

50
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: just excited to go out there and play ball. What

51
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: do you think for you the biggest difference will be

52
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: from the three pre tea game. Expect much marks dotted

53
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:53,040
Speaker 1: like we know, skill guys, quarterbacks keep everything kind of

54
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: simple and the trenches will there be a big difference

55
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: between real games and the games you've already played. That's

56
00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: what I'm being to see. Haven't played a regular season

57
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 1: game yet, so I'm excited to see, uh what what what?

58
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: What that shows? For sure? In the preseason, Um, I

59
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,080
Speaker 1: feel like I got some good looks in preseason, good competition,

60
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,079
Speaker 1: and a lot of good experiences to learn from. So

61
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,839
Speaker 1: I feel like it would be the same week one.

62
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: But regardless, football is football. The fields a hundred yards

63
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: long and fifty yards wide. That's never gonna change. What

64
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: has Andrew told you about the start of his rookie year.

65
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 1: He played pretty one well. Week one, he hit some

66
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: rough patches. He obviously had a great second year. What

67
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: has Andrew told you about his rookie year that might

68
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: relate to you, guys, because obviously you're different people, but

69
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: both came from top programs, both high draft picks, both tackles.

70
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: What is he told you about? Maybe right in the

71
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: roller coaster as a rookie. I love Andrew. Andrew is

72
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: a great guy, a great mentor, for sure. He just

73
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 1: told me, man, just to focus on what's what's inside,

74
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 1: was going on inside? Don't really, dello focus on what's

75
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: going on outside. Uh, just focus on getting better. I mean,

76
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: regardless of you know, what type of product is out

77
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 1: there's put out there on Sunday, the goal is to

78
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: get better the next week, you know, just flip the

79
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 1: page and focus on getting better than next week and

80
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: just continue to make positive growth as a Player's uh,

81
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: pretty much what he's been telling me. Thanks and Valentine,

82
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 1: Hey Evan, how are you? The chance talked a lot

83
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 1: about process on offense all summer, about not necessarily production,

84
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: but process. What's kind of a process for you too?

85
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,200
Speaker 1: Can you just talk about what you learned about the

86
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,880
Speaker 1: NFL and maybe where you think you got better throughout

87
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:49,239
Speaker 1: the summer. Yeah, the NFL definitely more technical league, for sure.

88
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: So I have to have to become more of a technician. Uh,

89
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 1: couldn't just rely so much on just my you know,

90
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 1: raw authoric says in my town, you know, So I

91
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 1: have to become more of a technician as well. Working

92
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: on my past as I set angles, I feel like

93
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: I'm more comfortable in my sets. I'm using my hands

94
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: more and I feel like I'm more balanced as well.

95
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: But I mean, obviously I have a lot of a

96
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: lot of work that still needs to be done, but

97
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: I feel like my game is trending in the right direction.

98
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: Thank you. We'll take one more. Tom rock Evan, we

99
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 1: started asking you about what being one and oh can

100
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 1: do for teams. You do you have to sort of

101
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 1: change your mindset, uh, in terms of what what losses mean.

102
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: You know, when you're in college, one loss put you

103
00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: on the precipice. Two losses basically ended your season. You know.

104
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: In the NFL, I don't I don't think this team

105
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 1: is gonna go seventeen and make maybe, but uh, do

106
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: you have to prepare for for losses differently, Um, never

107
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,160
Speaker 1: really had to prepare for losing because I've never really

108
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 1: lost too much in the past. Um, I hate losing.

109
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: I've always have and uh, you know, losing here is

110
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: not something I'm going to focus on. The goal is

111
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 1: to win. I mean, you never go that you're gonna win,

112
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: You're gonna lose. But I'm not going to focus on lose,

113
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna do everything in my power to help

114
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: this team win. You know, if you come up short,

115
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 1: because you're gonna learn from it and move on to

116
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,239
Speaker 1: the next week. Do you think you'll have to learn

117
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: how to do that. You've never had to really come

118
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: back from from losses. Yeah, I'm sure that's going to

119
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:21,479
Speaker 1: be an adjustment for sure. I mean, nobody likes to lose.

120
00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: I hope no one likes to lose. So I'm sure

121
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: that's going to be an adjustment for me. But it's

122
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: one that you know, I feel like i'd bear to

123
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 1: get past.
