1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,720
Speaker 1: Obviously you've had a few new faces in the secondary

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 1: just within the last you know, a couple of days. Curious, Um,

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:09,799
Speaker 1: you know what Logan Ryan's Brandt brought brought to the field,

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:11,719
Speaker 1: got him all these all these new faces. What we've

5
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:16,239
Speaker 1: seen from those guys, Well, he's just uh uh well

6
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 1: season vet. You know, he brought a lot of wisdom

7
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,920
Speaker 1: to this defense playing his defense before, so he's uh,

8
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:22,439
Speaker 1: he's talked to us about how they're gonna try to

9
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: attack us and whatnot. And he played he's played band

10
00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: them before quite a few times. So he brought a

11
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 1: lot of knowledge to the defense. And then I right,

12
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 1: you know, um he came over from the Broncos. You

13
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: could tell just off his side. You know, he brings

14
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 1: a lot of size. I can run as well. Um,

15
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 1: bringing his overall his athleticism to this defense. Thanks chess Ryan.

16
00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: Hey James, uh good, how are you are you? Are

17
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 1: you a guy who likes to travel with the other

18
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,440
Speaker 1: team's best receiver? Do you take a lot of pride

19
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 1: in that? Do you prefer to just whatever your assignment is?

20
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: The last Giants top cornered jack Rabbit wanted the number

21
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,000
Speaker 1: one receiver. He took a lot of pride in that

22
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 1: is that how you feel or you do whatever is that. Uh,

23
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 1: I'll just take a lot of problems just getting the

24
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,680
Speaker 1: job done whatever coaches, the coaches want me to do. Uh,

25
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: the whatever assignments, assignment they give me at the beginning

26
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 1: of the week, I just take pride in getting that

27
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: job done on Sunday, Monday, Thursday, whichever night we play on.

28
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 1: If that means going into the slot, what's your comfort

29
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: level there? You know a football player, you know, um,

30
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,399
Speaker 1: you gotta make you gotta be comfortable being uncomfortable. So

31
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 1: wherever they want me to line up, I'm gonna play playball. Jordans, Hey, James,

32
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: I'm wondering what's the mindset when you're playing a quarterback

33
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: who's coming back from a serious armage. Did you just

34
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,200
Speaker 1: automatically assume he's gonna, you know, be back to what

35
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: he was beforehand. Do you say, okay, I want to

36
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 1: let's let's see what he does earlier in the game.

37
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 1: How how do you approach that? Uh? We just gotta

38
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: approach him based off his history. You know, it's it's

39
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 1: track record, you know, big being a strong arm um.

40
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 1: You know he's been in the game for seventeen years,

41
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: and I'm sure he had his is a few injuries

42
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: that that people don't know about. So he's able to

43
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: take care of his body and he's gonna make the

44
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 1: checks at the line. You know, he's smart, he's been

45
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: around for a long time. UM, and of course he

46
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 1: has a strong arm. Appreciate it. Chris, Hey, James, how

47
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: you doing. I'm good about you, James good Man, Thank you, James.

48
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,679
Speaker 1: You'll be matched up a lot against Juju Um Monday night.

49
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 1: Talk about what this guy. The challenges this guy presents

50
00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:37,239
Speaker 1: to you. Uh, well, usually he's a strong receiver, has

51
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 1: some size to him, has strong hands so he's able

52
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 1: to play through contested catchers and whatnot, make strong catchers

53
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: at the point of attack. UM has size so he's

54
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: able to go up and get forrad the ball on

55
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: jump ball situations as well. James, is that anybody you

56
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 1: could compare them to that you played the NC South

57
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: or anything like that. Uh? Not really. I don't really

58
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: like to make comparisons, uh as far as receivers or

59
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: any defensive player or offer as a player at that.

60
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: At that fact, you know, everyone's different. Everyone has their

61
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: own strength and weaknesses. All right man. Thanks for up Monday.

62
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: Appreciate Patty. Hey Jeames, how are you doing? Good? About

63
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 1: you doing well? Sorry about the video here. I was

64
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 1: just curious from on the whole, how deceptive is the

65
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: Steelers passing game in terms of the routes that they

66
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: asked the receivers to run and the options that come

67
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: off of those rounds. Um. I wouldn't. I wouldn't necessarily

68
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: say the deceptive. I mean, what you see is what

69
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: you get. You know, they're explosive offense that likes to

70
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 1: take shots down the field based off the film that

71
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 1: we've seen. UM. So, of course they have some great receivers.

72
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: You know, they got Juju James Washington. Uh. You know,

73
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: they drafted Chase Claypool. He can run, He's a big receiver. UM.

74
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: And they also have a Deyance Johnson, you know, a

75
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: speed guy that can give article down the field as well.

76
00:03:54,320 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: Thank you. Oh no, I'll take two more Ryan games.

77
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: The outside perception and you probably changed quite a bit

78
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: with your contract this offseason, you know, one of the

79
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: higher paid cornerbacks in the league. Does that change anything

80
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: for you in terms of pressure, expectations, how you work?

81
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: Just obviously people are viewing you different than they're reviewing you.

82
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: Maybe last year. UM, I trying to have to pay

83
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,479
Speaker 1: attention to outside noise. UM. You know, even when I

84
00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: was in Carolina, you know, they put a lot of

85
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say pressure, but they asked me to go

86
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: out there and go out to no more receivers. I've

87
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,320
Speaker 1: been doing that for a while now, you know. I

88
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 1: just try to go out, go by my own business

89
00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: and go out there each and every Sunday, Monday or Thursday,

90
00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: whichever night that we play. UM, and just trying to

91
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 1: play to the best of my ability whatever it is.

92
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: That's all I can do, is play to the best

93
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 1: of my ability. Last one here, Pat Leward James from

94
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: your experience, just as a corner, you know, like you

95
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 1: guys are brought in some new guys really late here

96
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 1: Isaac Yadam, I think you know Ryan Lewis on the

97
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 1: practice squad. How difficult is it as a core owner

98
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 1: to acclimate and contribute immediately to a new defense like that? Um?

99
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 1: Is it a position where if you play enough man

100
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 1: to man you can you can jump in and it

101
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: doesn't take you know too much as far as uh,

102
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: you know, learning the system or is it complicated and

103
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,520
Speaker 1: it's gonna take some time? Um, I guess it just

104
00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 1: depends on what was was scheming system you're going to.

105
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: I know Ron and I I went on Ron for

106
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: the most part, and then even Logan they played in

107
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 1: the system before, so they kind of know what's going

108
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: on once they once they get here. UM. I you know,

109
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: as a corner, especially playing outside, you know you're gonna

110
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,799
Speaker 1: you're gonna play pretty much the same thing, just based

111
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,600
Speaker 1: off the The hardest thing to learn is the terminology.

112
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: You know, quarters, quarters, cover two, covered three, man, it's

113
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: gonna be man. Couple three is gonna be covered three

114
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: for a corner outside, So that's not really hard to

115
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 1: pick up. The hardest thing to pick up is the terminology.

116
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: So once they pick up the terminology is kind of

117
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it's easy, but it's it's um, it's

118
00:05:58,640 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 1: easier to learn it after that.
