1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:00,920
Speaker 1: How's Daniel doing.

2
00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 2: He's doing better. He'll be out here today practice doing

3
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,200
Speaker 2: some stuff. See where we're at.

4
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: Has he been cleared for contact?

5
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, well he's cleared for to throw. So that's what

6
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 2: he's going to do today is is throw.

7
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 1: I hope he technically limitation. What is he to do

8
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:23,759
Speaker 1: to get cleared for contact at this point? And that

9
00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:24,119
Speaker 1: is that.

10
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 2: Whenever, whenever the doctors tell me he's cleared, right now,

11
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 2: he's able to throw.

12
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,199
Speaker 1: So that's what we're gonna do. So does he go.

13
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: Is there like a day where he has to go

14
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 1: back and get checked where he can get cleared to

15
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:37,239
Speaker 1: for contact part? Yeah?

16
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:40,400
Speaker 2: I mean I think he gets evaluated pretty much every day,

17
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 2: so you know, when they tell me he's cleared, that's

18
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 2: why it'll be clear. Is is it your impression that

19
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 2: he has to be symptom free to stop that clearance process?

20
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

21
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 2: I'll just say when the doctors and the trainers tell

22
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 2: me that he's ready to go, that's when he'll be

23
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 2: ready to go. Rid me update at NBC game on

24
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 2: his injury and like how he was feeling it into

25
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 2: his shoulder, Does that reflect it's more serious than we

26
00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 2: initially understood No, I mean he's out here today. He'll

27
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 2: be throwing pat and I would say, you know, he's

28
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 2: he's eager to come back and he wants to play.

29
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 2: But obviously, just like any player, if they're not ready

30
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 2: to play based on the doctor's evaluation, we won't put

31
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 2: him out there.

32
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:17,960
Speaker 1: But he's getting better.

33
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,040
Speaker 2: That's why we're gonna have him out here today. No,

34
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 2: he's gonna come out here. He'll throw, do some individual

35
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 2: he could he could do some stuff in on the

36
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 2: look team as a quarterback, but we'll see, we'll see

37
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 2: where we're at with that.

38
00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:46,279
Speaker 1: But he can do that. Yeah, that's but he's healthy.

39
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: He's definitely your starting quarterback. Correct. How about Andrew Thomas?

40
00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 2: Andrew Thomas will not participate, but he is getting better.

41
00:01:56,200 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 2: He's gonna be doing stuff with the trainers. He's he's

42
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 2: getting closer. I'd say same with the other guys. To

43
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: the guys that the people that won't practice, just f

44
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:14,440
Speaker 2: y are Evan. He won't practice his ankle part. John Michael,

45
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 2: Andrew and Wandell with his knee, which is kind of

46
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 2: a preventive thing coming off the game.

47
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 1: John Michael, what what happened there? What's going on? Like that.

48
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: You guys, he's got a shoulder and that's that. So

49
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: he hasn't practiced in two weeks. Still not a person

50
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: that I.

51
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: Mean has has not practiced, no, and won't practice today.

52
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 2: And Neil is that his ankle he played swallowing a

53
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 2: little bit, so we're gonna rehab them.

54
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,760
Speaker 1: It's an eye are candidate, m I don't think so.

55
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: He's just now you're starting left tackle. I will see.

56
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,720
Speaker 2: We've got a bunch of new guys today, So replaced

57
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 2: one Josh with another Josh have pew Tyree's back, So

58
00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 2: a lot of new faces today that we'll put in

59
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: there and start working with.

60
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,839
Speaker 1: How do you think you did it left tackle? When

61
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: you look at it?

62
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought he did some good things. Again, he

63
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 2: hasn't played tackle in a while. You know, we had

64
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 2: talked about it, like I said before, But we'll give him,

65
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 2: obviously some reps out there, make sure we get him

66
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 2: ready to go.

67
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 1: What idea that you like somebody?

68
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 3: I mean, he's said he's under three hundred pounds bigger

69
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 3: at that position.

70
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: Oh, he's a pro.

71
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 2: He's played a long time, so you know, he does

72
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 2: a good job of standing in front of the guys,

73
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 2: and he's got quick feet, you can get to the

74
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 2: second level. He's got a lot of experience.

75
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: So as long as they can do their job, got

76
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 1: a shot to return that to you.

77
00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 2: I don't know, yeah, m.

78
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: Anything else? What is what?

79
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 2: What as a guy who you know deals a lot

80
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 2: with offense, Well, what can be done to improve yours?

81
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 1: Have to catch? You know? Is it guy you just

82
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: have to break tackles or is it lots of combination?

83
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: Everything, it's getting up field, making a guy miss ball place.

84
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: Everything plays into it. You know, if you're beating man, coverage,

85
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 2: escaping man, if you're in zone, split defenders, that's it's

86
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:18,920
Speaker 2: about what it is.

87
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: I mean how important is that for an offense to

88
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 1: kind of you know, you have to catch?

89
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean just you know, getting something out of

90
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 2: nothing or something out of what. Yeah, I mean, I

91
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,680
Speaker 2: mean that's you always want to stay in favorable situation.

92
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:30,680
Speaker 2: So a five yard pass, you know you'd like to

93
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 2: turn into an eight yard gain, a nine yard game,

94
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 2: you know, first down, make it second one second to five,

95
00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: make it first down.

96
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 1: It's definitely important. Guys. Then Ahan Robinson, they played very

97
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:42,799
Speaker 1: much the last two games.

98
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've we've been in a little bit less base,

99
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,160
Speaker 2: been playing in a more nickel with the guys, and

100
00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 2: that's that's been the reason. But you know, we'll work

101
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 2: with him, maybe some different little spots here based on

102
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 2: how we're getting played to make sure he gets in

103
00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 2: there more.

104
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: What have you seen from Jalen High? You messed the

105
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: other day? You want to You want to play your receivers,

106
00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:03,480
Speaker 1: You want them to get what do you what do

107
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:04,839
Speaker 1: you see from him? And that makes you want to?

108
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:06,120
Speaker 1: I think he's ready for it now.

109
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 2: Well, I think you know he's he's fast, and he's

110
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 2: got to play. You know, you can't there's nothing you

111
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 2: can go out here and practice and do that, which

112
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:16,600
Speaker 2: is important, but you've got to get some game reps

113
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 2: and and run routes against you know, dbs that are

114
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 2: playing in the NFL in a competitive, competitive way. I

115
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 2: think he's each week he's gotten a little bit better.

116
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: And there's a lot to learn when you're a young player,

117
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 2: but he's he's done a good job of of practicing

118
00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 2: the right way of preparing. I think he's got some

119
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 2: some good talent and play him.

120
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,880
Speaker 1: How did Saquan come out of Sunday night?

121
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:44,359
Speaker 2: And there is there motivation to get him to be

122
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,719
Speaker 2: more than a limited participant in practice or do you

123
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 2: think that's kind of the way.

124
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 1: This thing is.

125
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 2: No, I'd say, right now, we're going to make sure

126
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 2: he gets to the games the way we need to

127
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 2: make sure he gets the games. He'll be a limited

128
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 2: guy today, but he'll do stuff. I'd say the ankle

129
00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 2: wasn't any worse off, just natural bumps and bruises from

130
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 2: haven't played for a while, So I'd say he's in

131
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 2: a good spot. What did he What did he give

132
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 2: you sunday, maybe that you hadn't had it in previously runs?

133
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 1: Does that allow you to be more balanced as an

134
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 1: offense too?

135
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, like I said, it wasn't I mean

136
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 2: we were I don't know how many carries it was

137
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 2: for not many yards. But again, if you're able to

138
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 2: stick with it based on how the game is being played.

139
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,839
Speaker 2: He gave you some some big runs that you know,

140
00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,119
Speaker 2: skip two or three third downs and you get twenty

141
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 2: five yard runs.

142
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: That's important. I guess my questions does when you have him,

143
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: does it stick? Does it make it easier to say

144
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: we're going to stick with this? Well?

145
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it depends on the situation of the

146
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 2: game too, based on the score.

147
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 1: But sure, I mean, and you can.

148
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 2: Give him the ball. Again. He didn't have many yards

149
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 2: there at first, but the game was competitive. The control

150
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 2: of the game was good, and you know he made

151
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 2: some and I'd say the line block some you know,

152
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:57,840
Speaker 2: some of those long ones. There were some some good

153
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 2: sized holes higher what took long.

154
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,360
Speaker 1: I mean, he's been fast since he got here. I mean,

155
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: you're a rookie. It's a hard position to play receiver.

156
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: I coached it for six years.

157
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 2: There wasn't many rookie receivers that I've had that have

158
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 2: played right away. Dean Branch comes to mind one of them.

159
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: But it's a it's a learning.

160
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 2: Experience when you're a young receiver. There's a lot of

161
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 2: different things that happened that maybe didn't happen to him

162
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,280
Speaker 2: in college relative or whether it's press coverage, certain adjustments,

163
00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,000
Speaker 2: things like that, and that happens for most I mean

164
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 2: the position. When I coach receivers, you know, it takes

165
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 2: a little bit of time for for younger players. So again,

166
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 2: he's a he's a young guy that's you know, still learning,

167
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 2: and you know he'll get some opportunities.

168
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: You mentioned making any changes here offensive play calling, right, No,

169
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 1: you mentioned the physicality part of it. For he's not

170
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: the biggest guy. Is that one of the biggest challenges

171
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 1: you think for him?

172
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 2: No, I just think just as coaching the receivers, it's

173
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 2: it's really everything in this league. It's the whether it's

174
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 2: press coverage, the dis guy, is that you're getting the

175
00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,080
Speaker 2: verbiage that you're hearing. There's so many things that go

176
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 2: into it for a young player, for a receiver, and

177
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 2: I've you know, I dealt it firsthand when I coached

178
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 2: them for you know, six years or whatever it was.

179
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 2: It's a challenge and every chance, every spot is challenging

180
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 2: coming from college to the pros. But you know, receivers,

181
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 2: there's there's a lot Just the play calls too in

182
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 2: the huddle are a little bit different. So not much

183
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 2: different than the younger guys that I've been around. You know,

184
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 2: we'll just keep bringing.

185
00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 1: Among the grand CASI you're back on the practice fund.

186
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll see how We'll see how that goes.

187
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 3: The letter you wanted to younger players particularly the season

188
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 3: isn't over, do you know if you address the team

189
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,560
Speaker 3: at all like that or yeah, I see That's that's

190
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,959
Speaker 3: probably the locker room conversation.

191
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 2: Something asked, our focus is on on this week, and uh,

192
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 2: you know, got a good division team coming in. That's

193
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 2: that's three and three that just won their last game

194
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 2: against Atlanta, close one, had a close one against Arizona

195
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 2: in the first game, they were close one against Enver,

196
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 2: took Philly to overtime. You know, the Chicago game was

197
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 2: what it was in the Bills game. But you know,

198
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 2: they're doing a good job. They're three and three and

199
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:09,120
Speaker 2: coming off win.

200
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,240
Speaker 3: Is it a hard sell to convince guys that is

201
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 3: everything still.

202
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: Available to you?

203
00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 2: And no, we just focus on the stuff that we

204
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 2: can control, and that's that's where our focus is. You regret, Yeah,

205
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 2: things happen every year, so you never you know, get

206
00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 2: everybody back. That's the nature of the NFL free agency

207
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 2: stuff like that. So Nick's a good, good player, tough guy.

208
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 2: I appreciated his time here and he's doing a good

209
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 2: job there.

210
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: Yeah.

211
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,319
Speaker 2: They throw it a lot, you know, they drop back

212
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 2: and pass a lot and he slings it. He's not

213
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,480
Speaker 2: afraid to turn it loose, stands in the pocket, has

214
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,599
Speaker 2: a good arm. You know, he's he's not afraid to

215
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 2: fire it. So he's uh, he's a tough competitor. Liked

216
00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:59,040
Speaker 2: him coming out, and he's done a good job there.

217
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: And what's some challenge about the commanders the defensive Fronto's

218
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 2: four good first rounders up there. They've been together for

219
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,320
Speaker 2: a while. Coach del Rio does a good job, played

220
00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 2: them a bunch since I've been here at Buffalo. You know, talented, talent,

221
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 2: t you guys from Bama inside that are talented, and

222
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,719
Speaker 2: the edge players are top notched players. So they get

223
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 2: pressure with four cover with seven, I know, mixing pressures.

224
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 2: You know, they certainly did against us the last couple

225
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: of games. So good team.
