Your body is 5 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 4: probably a little beat down at the end of the season. 6 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,480 Speaker 4: I'm not sure if anything require anything surgery or just 7 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 4: what would your process like after the season. 8 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:16,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, no surgeries, but definitely putting emphasis on getting my 9 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,079 Speaker 3: body back to one hundred percent. Took some time off 10 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 3: to really recover, and then just being proactive about doing 11 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,560 Speaker 3: my rehab, even if it's not bothering me, Just trying 12 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 3: to do stuff to stay on top of it, to 13 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:28,640 Speaker 3: prevent injuries as much as possible. 14 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: Gotcha. 15 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,000 Speaker 4: And there's been a lot of addition to the offensive 16 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 4: line already, and you know, maybe more to come. How 17 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 4: much do you just want some continuity at left guard? 18 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 4: It feels like there's sort of been a lot of 19 00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:41,919 Speaker 4: turnover there in your career. Would be nicer just get 20 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 4: a guy and just keeping there. You guys can grow together. 21 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see what they decide for who's playing that spot. 22 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 3: But it's the NFL, the nature of the businesses. People 23 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 3: get injured, you know, people get traded. Things happen, So 24 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 3: you got to be able to play with whoever's next 25 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 3: to you and that's the mindset I try to have. 26 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: Gotcha.

But 32 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: what conversations have you had with Karen and what do 33 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: you kind of make of of what he's going to 34 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:17,479 Speaker 1: do with you guys. 35 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, right now, we're still going to you know, getting 36 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 3: to know each other phase, not just Karen, but a 37 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 3: lot of guys in the room. And right now it's 38 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 3: just going over like the introductory stuff of the offense, 39 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 3: just the terms that we use, just the way he 40 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,760 Speaker 3: envisioned certain plays and stuff like that. It's just the 41 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,200 Speaker 3: first day, so we haven't gotten deep into it, but 42 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 3: just trying to get on the same page with all 43 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 3: the new guys. 44 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 2: What's your first impression of Karen then, because it is 45 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 2: really in the process. 46 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 3: I think energetic. Right now we're not on the practice 47 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 3: field yet, but just in meaning rooms, he's been energetic. 48 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 3: It seems like he enjoys coaching and so well, you know, 49 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 3: we'll see how it goes. 50 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: Thank you, Canavon, Hey, Andrew, how are you doing. 51 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 3: I'm gonna heart you good. 52 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 5: Daniel was on with us a couple of minutes ago 53 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 5: and he said, you know, his goal is to get 54 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 5: back on the field and time for training camp. You 55 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 5: know how hard the guy works. You know it seems 56 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 5: that when sakuon at the ACL, it took him forever. 57 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 2: If anybody can come back, do you think it's Daniel. 58 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 3: I'm excited for DJ. He's definitely a hard worker. I 59 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 3: know everyone that has that ACO surgery is different for 60 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 3: each person their recovery time. So I trust the trainers, 61 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 3: you know, to make the right decision, and I trust 62 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 3: DJ to do everything he can to get back whenever. 63 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 1: That is sorry rookie mistake, and I'm not a rookie. 64 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: Can you hear me, Andrew? Yes, I can, thank you. 65 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 6: The new offensive line coach comes from the school of 66 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 6: Dante's Garnakia, who had such an incredible you know run 67 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 6: obviously in that role, and Scarnakia once told me, if 68 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 6: you give me the effort, I can coach the rest. 69 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: And I'm getting seen. 70 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 2: You now have a coach who feels that way. 71 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 6: Do you like that dynamic with a coach who you 72 00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 6: know knows he can help a player and then obviously 73 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 6: the results will speak. 74 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 3: For themselves definitely. I mean, the first thing he said 75 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 3: in Medians today is he wants he wants tough players 76 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 3: and then we can we can figure out the rest. 77 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 3: And that's what you want from a coach. You don't 78 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 3: want to have or speaking like, if I was a coach, 79 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,679 Speaker 3: I wouldn't want to have the coach effort. I only 80 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 3: want to focus on the nuances of the game and 81 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 3: technique and things like that. So as long as we 82 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 3: bring the effort, bring the toughness, then you know he's 83 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 3: going to do his job to coach us up. 84 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 6: And how about the idea that you know, just to 85 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 6: stay healthy, what would that mean to you in particular, 86 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 6: speaking only for yourself, Like if you could just have 87 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 6: every game where you at least felt good enough to. 88 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 3: Be out there, that would be a dream come true. 89 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 3: It's a tough game that we play. A lot of 90 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 3: things you know are out of your control. But I'm 91 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 3: just doing my best to have a positive mindset and 92 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 3: do all the rehab and stuff I can just to 93 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 3: prevent injuries as much as possible. 94 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 2: Thanks so much, Brian dun Maybe, hey Andrew, thanks. 95 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 1: For doing this no problem. I'm curious. 96 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 7: I know one of the things through your career has 97 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 7: been you've always been a lead by example guy, and 98 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 7: you've kind of put it on yourself to be a 99 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 7: little bit more outspoken with the other offensive lineman. I'm 100 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 7: curious if you have thought at all about forget the 101 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 7: offensive line room, like being a voice of the team 102 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 7: or a face of the franchise now, because if you 103 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 7: look around, three of your more outspoken g guys, say Quon, 104 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 7: Xavier McKinney and Adorri Jackson are not here anymore.

I think that 111 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 3: started a little bit, especially towards the end of last year. 112 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 3: I'm just trying to motivate guys. Obviously we weren't in contention, 113 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 3: but just trying to help guys as much as I could, 114 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 3: and you know, addressing the offense and things of that nature. 115 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 3: Just trying to do more of that and be a 116 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 3: better leader. 117 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: I'm curious too. 118 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 7: I was reading, you know, I do the offensive line 119 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 7: scouting reports and whatnot, and I came across the kid 120 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 7: from Pat Steve's like supposed to be a top twenty pick, 121 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 7: Go Forshan, who said he. 122 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 1: Models his game after Andrew Thomas. 123 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 7: Is that crazy for you to think that four years 124 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 7: ago you were coming in the draft.
