1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: Talk about what your biggest objective was when you were going, uh,

2
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 1: going to the roster, particular with regards to not so

3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,399
Speaker 1: much to which one you would select, but areas we

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: know what, particularly in with regard to both lines out

5
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: of twenty.

6
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:19,120
Speaker 2: One there, Well, I think you can never have enough

7
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,360
Speaker 2: bigs number one, you know, guys that can play. And

8
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:25,600
Speaker 2: we felt really good about the those twenty one guys

9
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 2: obviously well enough to keep all of 'em. And uh,

10
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 2: I think you're just trying to put the best fifty

11
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 2: three together.

12
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 3: Sometimes you go heavy in certain areas.

13
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 2: Sometimes injuries play apart, sometimes availability plays a part. So

14
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: we just felt those were the best fifty three for

15
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 2: the for the time being. You know, the roster's never done.

16
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 2: You know, we're gonna keep looking. We're gonna keep you know,

17
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,599
Speaker 2: competing and putting the guys in a position where they

18
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 2: have to compete to keep their spots.

19
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 4: Just how difficult was it making those final couple of decisions.

20
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 4: It's never easy, you know, this is a tough day

21
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 4: for all thirty two clubs, you know, and because you've

22
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 4: you've invested so much time in these guys, right and

23
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 4: in the development process, and and uh.

24
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 5: Like to Trent said, it's it's not done.

25
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 4: Obviously, we get a chance to you know, hopefully get

26
00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 4: some guys back, you know, on our practice roster, and and.

27
00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,320
Speaker 5: You know, keep uh you know, keep improving the roster.

28
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 6: You think that there's difficult decisions didn't wind up being

29
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 6: really hard when it came to the secondary and decisions

30
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 6: you guys made.

31
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 4: There the secondary. Yeah, yeah, I think I think every

32
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:39,199
Speaker 4: position is tough. It It just goes without without saying

33
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 4: I think, you know, there's there's obviously some some veteran

34
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 4: players that were there competing in the secondary that that

35
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 4: we also felt, you know, comfortable with some of our

36
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 4: young players in the development we had, and it's just

37
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 4: you know, again it's just you find the best fifty

38
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 4: three and and we're not done obviously, and and we've

39
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 4: got to continue to uh improve and and and but

40
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 4: you know, the guys we have, we're confident in and

41
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 4: you know, we uh, let we go play. That's gonna

42
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 4: be the next question to say more about how Jerry

43
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 4: and and DeAndre players like that played and drank.

44
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 5: Can't the preseason games.

45
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that that's that's that's a lot of it,

46
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 4: you know, And and I think I think it's a

47
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 4: credit to the coaches too. And it goes back to

48
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 4: what I've been saying all spring is in summer is

49
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 4: the development, you know of our entire roster and and

50
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 4: I think that's what showed up and in these games,

51
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 4: and and you know, these guys, these guys have earned

52
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 4: earned these spots.

53
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 7: And Sean talked in the spring about no more.

54
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 1: Reliance on of free agency like eighteen and the twenty

55
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: three guys from the last two draft classes made throwing

56
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 1: the roster.

57
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,239
Speaker 7: Is that kind of speak to that priority as well?

58
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 2: Well? Again, you know, Mike, you keep the best fifty

59
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 2: three guys, you know, in regardless of age.

60
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 3: You know, you're does that play a factor?

61
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, when when things are equal or close to equal

62
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 2: and you're looking at upside potential where they're at currently,

63
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: you know, there's there's so many things that go into it.

64
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 2: But like coach said, everybody that's in those rooms earned it,

65
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 2: you know, and now it's their job to keep it,

66
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: you know, as we as we progress through and they

67
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 2: know what we and that's just the business.

68
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 3: We're all in it. It's it's what have you done

69
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 3: for me lately?

70
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 8: Where have you guys kind of loved it with cig

71
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 8: I know it was way or released with the injury designation.

72
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 8: Is that kind of you're going to let him explore

73
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 8: the market or is that maybe a down the line regiion.

74
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,920
Speaker 2: Well, the way that works when when you have a

75
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 2: guy that gets injured and you do an injury settlement

76
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: with them, it's the length of the injury plus three

77
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 2: weeks before you you know, we can get them back.

78
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 3: Other teams could make a.

79
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: Move earlier in that, but we you know, we got

80
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 2: to wait at least seven weeks before that becomes an

81
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 2: option for us.

82
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 8: You have an injury that just felt like that was

83
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 8: the right mover.

84
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 2: Well, it was this significant injury and it's going to

85
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 2: keep him away from ball for a while. You know

86
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 2: that at least four weeks of the season, could be longer,

87
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 2: could be shorter. You know, it depends on how quickly

88
00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 2: he heels and how the rehab goes. But that's the

89
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 2: timeline right now.

90
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 6: Are are there any concerns that just stress in the

91
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 6: past rush situation at all with Eric hasn't played yet

92
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,239
Speaker 6: obviously come back from injury, and Miles in that group

93
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 6: obviously very top heavy and comfortable with Trayvon and Josh,

94
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 6: but it don't look like there's a lot of bodies there.

95
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,679
Speaker 3: We feel good about the group again.

96
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 2: We've got three guys that have played a lot of

97
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 2: football at Eric. Eric's in good shape, he's ready to go.

98
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 2: He's been We've been smart. He's been smart and how

99
00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: we're bringing him along. He's a pro. He knows his

100
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 2: body well. You can see him out there moving around.

101
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 2: He's moving really well. There's always a chance for injury

102
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 2: and I don't care how many guys you have.

103
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 3: Guys go down, the next man's got to come up.

104
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 2: But we feel good about that rotation. We've got some

105
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 2: guys on the inside. It can flex outside, so there's

106
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 2: some flexibility with what with the way the roster was constructed,

107
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 2: that group, how what does it.

108
00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 6: Say about Cole and what he was able to do

109
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,359
Speaker 6: in a pretty short order to be a part of that.

110
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 4: It's a credit to to Miles to to really come

111
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 4: in and and learn the system, learn the defense, you know,

112
00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 4: show us his his skill set and and earn at spot.

113
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 7: What'd you like about it? Says he what?

114
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 5: What?

115
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:30,679
Speaker 7: What did you see from him? During Dragon?

116
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 8: Him?

117
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 5: To keep him for me too?

118
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 4: It goes back to last year, you know, having him,

119
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 4: having him here last year and what we saw every

120
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 4: day going against you know, our offensive line. And he's

121
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 4: a he's a big, powerful, you know, lengthy guy with

122
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 4: with some athleticism, and then that showed up in camp,

123
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 4: you know, and and just his skill set fits you know,

124
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 4: fits the scheme and and he's he's done a nice job.

125
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 4: How important guys are on that bright and squat because

126
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 4: they to be kind of the next wave. Yeah, and

127
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 4: it's like Trent said, I mean, you know it's kind

128
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 4: of the next man up if there's an injury, next

129
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,720
Speaker 4: guy up. And and you know we didn't have that

130
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 4: last year, but he was he was ready to go.

131
00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,080
Speaker 4: And uh, you know those guys, you know, a guy

132
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 4: like himself that was on our roster, you know, competing

133
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 4: every day last year, came in, came in this year

134
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 4: ready to go, eager to to you know, make the

135
00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 4: make the team.

136
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 7: What's the next whatevers twelve or so hours life for

137
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,599
Speaker 7: you guys to start waking. You guys got people you

138
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 7: know you want.

139
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: Back on the right and.

140
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,239
Speaker 7: Squad, but they're available out there just sort of waiting

141
00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 7: kind of hoping that gets those guys get through the

142
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 7: waiver claim and stuff. What's that like for you guys?

143
00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 7: Is nerve wracking? He's you know, draft day or something

144
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 7: too or.

145
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 4: Well, you know, you you you sit here today and

146
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 4: you let you know a number of players go and

147
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 4: at the same time, you know, you want to communicate

148
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 4: with them and the guys that you want back. And

149
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 4: but you know, you got thirty on other teams that

150
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 4: you know, we say all along that are looking at

151
00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 4: our roster too as we're looking at others, and you know,

152
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,200
Speaker 4: obviously there's a plan in place that if we don't

153
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 4: get the guys we you know, we get the next

154
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 4: guy and and you know, we'll fill out the practice

155
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 4: roster with the best sixteen.

156
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,760
Speaker 8: As much as you're able to share, I guess kind

157
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 8: of the situation with Shotley, knowing the longest tenured jab War,

158
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 8: knowing he said that this was probably his last year,

159
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 8: I was curious if there's anything you're able to share

160
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 8: on that front.

161
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,559
Speaker 2: Not at this time. You know, he had a really

162
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 2: good run here is that run over? You know that

163
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 2: remains to be seen, but its just applause. It's hard

164
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,120
Speaker 2: to stay in this league a year, much less ten,

165
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 2: you know, so hats off to him and what he's accomplished.

166
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 2: And you never say never jells.

167
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 7: Killed Johnson's special teams aces.

168
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 9: But they have institutional knowledge is why they've been around

169
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:52,600
Speaker 9: here for a number of years.

170
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 7: How valuable is that for your coach to have guys

171
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 7: who have been through.

172
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 3: Some flyers here before.

173
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 4: Thanks, very valuable. Both guys have been staples, you know,

174
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 4: on special teams, and that's I think it's just it's

175
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 4: a credit to them, But I think it's a it's

176
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 4: a message to the young players on our roster that

177
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 4: if you want to if you want to play in

178
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 4: this league and you want to play on the club,

179
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 4: is is you you bust your tail on special teams.

180
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 4: And both of those guys have kind of come up

181
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,960
Speaker 4: through that and have done a nice job, and they've

182
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,320
Speaker 4: earned their spots to.

183
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 7: Overtake those guys too, right if they're that for a long.

184
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 4: Time, Yeah, it is, I mean, you know, and it

185
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 4: seems like every year you try to you try to

186
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 4: find that that the next guy. And and these guys

187
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 4: they're prosy. They know how to come in every day

188
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 4: and work hard, and they're diligent about you know, their craft.

189
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,520
Speaker 5: And and I've earned the spot.

190
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 2: The new rule being able to designate guys that return

191
00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,920
Speaker 2: from high art without having to put them.

192
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,119
Speaker 7: On FI through roster more flexibility.

193
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 8: Is that give you?

194
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 7: How welcome other change is that?

195
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:54,000
Speaker 2: Well?

196
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 3: I think it's a very positive change for the league.

197
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 2: You know, you get you get two, you get a

198
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 2: too of eight throughout the course of the year that

199
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 2: you can designate for return.

200
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 3: So it's definitely an advantage.

201
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 2: You don't have to play the roster gymnastics like you

202
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 2: used to with veteran guys, cutting them and bringing them back,

203
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 2: so it just made sense to do it.

204
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:14,560
Speaker 3: I'm glad the league went to that.

205
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 7: You spoke to this yesterday. But trying to as good

206
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 7: as you feel about the overall debts.

207
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 3: As you've been in, is that for me?

208
00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 5: Oh?

209
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 2: You know, coach, and I will tell you, we feel

210
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 2: good about the fifty three guys. You know, you're only

211
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 2: as good as what the records you put out there is,

212
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 2: you know, so that remains to be seen. But this

213
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:42,280
Speaker 2: group of guys, they work hard, they're great teammates, they

214
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:46,319
Speaker 2: love coming to work every day. So from that standpoint,

215
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 2: we feel really good about the locker room. How good

216
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 2: it ends up being we're gonna find out eighteen weeks

217
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:52,800
Speaker 2: from now.

218
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 7: Want a little bit more on Shadley. You've been one

219
00:09:57,120 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 7: of those guys been in the league for a while.

220
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 6: And a much more called him the patriarch in that

221
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,600
Speaker 6: room yesterday to us?

222
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 7: Was that a heart?

223
00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 6: Is that a little bit more difficult of a conversation

224
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 6: than maybe even some of the other ones.

225
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 7: Like how do you feel about it?

226
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is, you know, because of of his tenure

227
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:19,319
Speaker 4: and and his commitment, and his the longevity that he's had,

228
00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:20,679
Speaker 4: you know, here in Jacksonville.

229
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 5: And and it's it's.

230
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,079
Speaker 4: Always hard, you know, it's tough when when they've been

231
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,040
Speaker 4: a staple in the community and and on your team

232
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 4: and in your organization for for as many.

233
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 5: Years as he has. And and I.

234
00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 4: Just appreciate the his his hard work.

235
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 5: You know, he's another one of those guys that he

236
00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 5: he kept working his tail off.

237
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,600
Speaker 4: Right, and then there was he would get an injury

238
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 4: in the offensive line and he would go in and

239
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 4: he he's just mister reliable and and it's it's tough

240
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 4: to make make those make those decisions.

241
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 8: Speaking of the offensive line, Cole as well as Javon,

242
00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,640
Speaker 8: how did they earn a roster saw.

243
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 7: Here on the Social three.

244
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,559
Speaker 5: I just think Cole has had.

245
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 4: A really good training camp and he's again he's he's earned,

246
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 4: he's earned a spot, right and and Javon has really

247
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,959
Speaker 4: proven to that that over over the course of when

248
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,200
Speaker 4: we when we got him to to now the improvement

249
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:28,320
Speaker 4: right and just a young offensive lineman that you still

250
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 4: want to invest some time and and continue to.

251
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 5: Work because there's a skill set there that is very.

252
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 4: Usable and we feel comfortable with that.

253
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 7: That's right. How how good you think you guys have

254
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 7: built special teams?

255
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: Obviously drafted the kick or Logan has been one of

256
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 1: the best, but all the other core guys that that

257
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:49,760
Speaker 1: were just mentioned.

258
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 2: I think we feel good about a nucleus of guys,

259
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 2: a core group of guys. There's never enough depth, you know,

260
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 2: And obviously when you go with this man any Biggs,

261
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 2: as we went with it, it thins out that core

262
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 2: a little bit. So we're gonna continue to look at

263
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 2: that and what we need to do to potentially beef

264
00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 2: that up. But again, the roster's never completely set, you know,

265
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 2: You're you're constantly looking. I think Heath and Luke do

266
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,480
Speaker 2: an outstanding job of coaching those guys and getting them

267
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 2: ready to play. Sometimes you gotta have guys that are starters,

268
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,720
Speaker 2: step up and step in and pill rolls.

269
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 3: So we're gonna look at all our options. But again

270
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 3: we're gonna that's what you do. You just keep looking.

271
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 7: Just a clarification that the two guys you put on

272
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 7: that are today, does that count against the eight that

273
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 7: you can bring back, or that neat addition.

274
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 3: To it, does it counts against the eight?

275
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 2: So you total of eight those two counts that were

276
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 2: down to six.

277
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 7: Do you have any update on.

278
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 8: Keeling in particular, dowgits four weeks minimum a find as

279
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 8: they sense of that injury that you held up right now.

280
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:53,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's still dealing with the toe, you know, and

281
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 2: how long that takes. You know, we're gonna bring them

282
00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 2: back as quickly as we can, but those things can

283
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 2: be tricky, especially for that position when it's a big toe.

284
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 2: So you know we're gonna be smart with it, but

285
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 2: we got to get him rolling at some point here, Doug, how.

286
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 6: Much of a transition for Trevor, Uh, not having CJ

287
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 6: in the room is is that different?

288
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:22,679
Speaker 5: You know? CJ has been He's been really good with Trevor.

289
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,760
Speaker 4: You know, and and and obviously it'll it'll take some

290
00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 4: some getting used to, some adjustments. But mac Is is

291
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 4: definitely you know, his veteran I think presence. Uh, he's

292
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:42,400
Speaker 4: played a lot of games, just like CJ has and

293
00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 4: those two have a really good relationship as well.

294
00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 5: And we've seen it. I've seen it. I've been I've

295
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 5: spent time.

296
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 4: In that room, and I see the dialogue that goes

297
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 4: on not only in there but on the field, and

298
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 4: and you know, it'll take a it'll take an adjustment period.

299
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 4: But but they're pros, you know, and they Max supports Trevor,

300
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 4: you know, and and and we.

301
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:08,720
Speaker 7: Just roll how much does when you went through it

302
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,680
Speaker 7: from the players. So when you're sitting there talking these guys,

303
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 7: do you flash back on your own experiences? When you know?

304
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:16,400
Speaker 5: I do?

305
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,280
Speaker 4: I mean I think I was released six times, yeah,

306
00:14:21,320 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 4: six six times in this league as a player early on?

307
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 5: It does?

308
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 4: I mean it still bothers you, you know, I can.

309
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 4: I had my own son, I had to cut him twice.

310
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 4: I mean, you know, so it it it bothers you,

311
00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,040
Speaker 4: you know, And and you do flash back to you know,

312
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 4: those times, and you just feel for the player. But

313
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 4: at the same time, I also encourage them too that

314
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 4: it's not the end, right because again there's there's other

315
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 4: clubs that are looking and the needing to fill fill

316
00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:53,160
Speaker 4: out their rosters and practice squads and all that kind

317
00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 4: of stuff.

318
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 5: So it's not the end. It could be the start

319
00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:02,600
Speaker 5: for many of them. Forgiving no comment.

320
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 8: One other White clarification, Trent, I know you guys, wait,

321
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 8: Patrick Barton injured, would he revert back to the Pathway

322
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:13,120
Speaker 8: program or how do you go?

323
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 9: Like, what's the rules there?

324
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 2: Well, he goes back to it reverts back to the

325
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:18,479
Speaker 2: counts against.

326
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 3: The the ninety right.

327
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 2: Uh, he's on IR for the season, seasoning ending injury. Uh,

328
00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,040
Speaker 2: so we'll rehab him and try to get him ready

329
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 2: for next year.

330
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:29,720
Speaker 7: The Pathway program.

331
00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 2: That opens up a spot. We can now have another one. Yes,

332
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:35,920
Speaker 2: you think you.

333
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:38,640
Speaker 6: Were getting when you traded for mac and and what

334
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 6: do you think you've gotten out that he's been here?

335
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 2: You know, we we all felt, you know, it was

336
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 2: it was a obviously the staff was heavily involved in it.

337
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: The coaching staff.

338
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:50,760
Speaker 2: You know, we felt we were getting a guy that's

339
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,560
Speaker 2: played at high level football in this league. You know,

340
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 2: sometimes things turn a different way, Uh, Uh, they go

341
00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 2: through a bad stretch. But you know, Max in a

342
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,760
Speaker 2: real good place. He's a good football player. He loves football,

343
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 2: he loves being in the building. He's an energizer. You know,

344
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 2: we got exactly what we thought we were gonna get.

345
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 9: Did you not get the past rush help that you

346
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 9: thought you would get out of Gift Center?

347
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 7: Or was a compensation that they offered Just let's let's.

348
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 2: Just go ahead, And you know, I think, Gee, I

349
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 2: think a lot of things factored in there. I think,

350
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 2: you know, Travis did a nice job for us. He

351
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 2: had a nice preseason, he had a nice offseason. Training

352
00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 2: camp obviously did well enough that multiple teams were interested

353
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 2: in him. You know, we just felt really good about

354
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 2: where Miles was at and where we think we can

355
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 2: get him. And the compensation factored into it. So there

356
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:50,560
Speaker 2: were a lot of things at play. But Travis did

357
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 2: a nice job and I think he'll do a nice

358
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:53,320
Speaker 2: job for Seattle.

359
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 7: How Naigel was Savage's ability of playing bigle safety two

360
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 7: That can use a lot of Plaxville when you guys

361
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 7: would making decisions on the back end.

362
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, the more guys can do, the more

363
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 2: flexible your roster is. The more things you can do

364
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 2: and numbers wise and where you count guys and stuff

365
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 2: like that. So it does give you flexibility. So you're

366
00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 2: always looking for guys that can o line, D line,

367
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,080
Speaker 2: multiple position guys, linebackers, they can play, you know, two

368
00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 2: positions and special teams. The more they can do, the

369
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:28,760
Speaker 2: better off it is for us in terms of the

370
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 2: roster building.

371
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:34,120
Speaker 8: Back to Miles, was there a moment where maybe compare

372
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 8: to where he was when he got here in May

373
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 8: to where he is today that for either of you

374
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,639
Speaker 8: that you were like, okay, like he could be on

375
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:42,800
Speaker 8: the fifty three mins roster, he could contribute year one.

376
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:44,920
Speaker 2: I think if you look at just the first game

377
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,120
Speaker 2: he played in as a young guy against Kansas City, Yeah,

378
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,439
Speaker 2: there's gonna be some growing pains there always is what

379
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,359
Speaker 2: rookies and especially you get into the regular season games

380
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 2: and they heat up a little bit and the you

381
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 2: know you're going against the ones, and you know things

382
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 2: change and he's gonna have to be a.

383
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 3: To adjust to that.

384
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 2: But I think you saw early on and it's hard

385
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 2: to find six six two dred and eighty pounds that

386
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,640
Speaker 2: runs four six and is thirty six and seven eighth

387
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:09,120
Speaker 2: arm length.

388
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 3: They don't. They're not just dropping off of trucks every day.

389
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:13,120
Speaker 3: Yere So.

390
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 7: Head coach is worrying all the time on everything. But

391
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 7: like as having a rookie kicker, is that ad any

392
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:23,399
Speaker 7: additional anxiety for you? She'll know how that idea.

393
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 4: Let me think back, I think I had a rookie

394
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 4: kicker in seventeen. So, No, Camp's done a great job.

395
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:37,800
Speaker 4: He's done a great job. He's earned it, strong leg accurate.

396
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:40,800
Speaker 4: He's done a nice job on the with the with

397
00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 4: the new kickoff you know, rule and keeping things in

398
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,159
Speaker 4: the you know, in that in that landing zone and

399
00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 4: just uh, we're you know, we're excited of his growth

400
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 4: and development.

401
00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 3: You practice what you've.

402
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 6: Preached in terms of the development stuff, the entire offseason,

403
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 6: district camp and what the roster looks like.

404
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 7: The league's not very patient.

405
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 6: Well, you guys have to practice a little bit of

406
00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 6: patience kind of what Drake was saying.

407
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 7: Some of this Rowan pays at.

408
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 4: Times, yes, But at the same time, when you when

409
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,679
Speaker 4: you look at the I think when you look at

410
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:23,199
Speaker 4: the you know, starting eleven offensively, starting eleven defensively, you

411
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,399
Speaker 4: know these are there's some veteran guys that have played

412
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 4: a lot of football, and you know, okay, Brian Thomas

413
00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 4: on offense, he might be the only really the only one,

414
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 4: right that's that's young back there.

415
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 5: Defensively, you know, you're you're you're rolling, you're.

416
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 4: Rolling some veteran guys, you know in that defensive line,

417
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 4: and and you've got you know, some veteran linebackers that

418
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 4: that that have been here.

419
00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 5: You know.

420
00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 4: And then and then then there's those those those one

421
00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:55,159
Speaker 4: offs like the Ventrel Millers right who have really developed

422
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:58,360
Speaker 4: and can can give you some time, not only defensively,

423
00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 4: but in the special teams.

424
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,840
Speaker 5: The secondary he is is another place.

425
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:04,639
Speaker 4: You know, Antonio Johnson, the steps that that he's made,

426
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 4: where Tyson Campbell is, you know, the addition of of Darnell.

427
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 4: I mean, there's some there's enough pieces that are you

428
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,480
Speaker 4: going to have a few pains here and there, probably,

429
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 4: But but I think these guys have played enough football

430
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 4: and feel comfortable in the scheme that it's gonna it's

431
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,199
Speaker 4: gonna be, you know, better than than than not.

432
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 7: The versatility of some of the interior defensive linemen and

433
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 7: maybe even linebackers have an impact on how the bedroom

434
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 7: was shaved.

435
00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, like I said earlier, there's there's guys on the

436
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 2: inside and that inside seven they can move, especially in

437
00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:46,879
Speaker 2: rundown situations that can flex out, So that that.

438
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:50,080
Speaker 3: Ability, that versatility does help us certainly.

439
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 8: Speaking of that group, you see her from where he

440
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 8: was the role he played this time a year ago,

441
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,360
Speaker 8: where he has now dug How would you describe.

442
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:04,840
Speaker 4: That he is proved tremendously, you know, from a on

443
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 4: the ball outside backer, off the edge rusher, which he's

444
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,520
Speaker 4: proven to do in camp this year, to a stack

445
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,040
Speaker 4: backer to special teams too. Again, one of the young

446
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 4: players that you know when you talk about development and growth,

447
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 4: he's really he's really taking that to heart and and

448
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,399
Speaker 4: he's put himself in a really good position to help us,

449
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,120
Speaker 4: you know, special teams and and also on defense.

450
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:34,439
Speaker 9: Attle World good Cole bang Landin's camp and traded here

451
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 9: a couple of years ago. But how do you stand

452
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 9: out and what can he do for you on this

453
00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 9: offensive line?

454
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 4: If right now you look at it, and yeah, as

455
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:50,600
Speaker 4: well as he's played, I mean, he's your fourth tackle, right,

456
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 4: I mean, and and that's a that's a good thing

457
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 4: to to to have, right to have that depth, try

458
00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,000
Speaker 4: trying alluded to it earlier. I mean, you know, to

459
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 4: have that kind of up in your offensive line, it's

460
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 4: find another team that has, you know, four tackles, you know,

461
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 4: and and can play either side. So we're very blessed

462
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,159
Speaker 4: obviously to be in this position, and he is. He

463
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 4: has definitely had a tremendous camp and and has done

464
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 4: a nice job.

465
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 7: Get any work at cons at all.

466
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 5: And did he work into the hole.

467
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 3: If he did, I don't think.

468
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:30,879
Speaker 4: I don't think he did. He kept him outside, He

469
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 4: stayed outside.

470
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 5: Yeah, Okay, thank you, Thank you guys.

471
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,120
