13
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 2: I think each you know, as I keep getting older,

14
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,320
Speaker 2: just my passion for the game has has grown, and

15
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 2: you know, I found that this is truly what I

16
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 2: want to do. And you know, I'm just fortunate to

17
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: be in a football family and I'm just you know,

18
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 2: honored to continue that.

19
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 3: Nate Atkins, I was just curious if you could just

20
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 3: describe your game, your style of play at tight end.

21
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 3: Do you see yourself more as like an F tight end,

22
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 3: wide tight end or how would you describe it?

23
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,160
Speaker 2: Whatever the team's asking me to do, let me do,

24
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 2: whether that's the receiving game or the blocking game, run game, whatever.

25
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 2: You know, I see myself as a you know, a

26
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 2: big athletic tight end that can move the chains and

27
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 2: make plays happen. And I want to get the ball

28
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 2: in my hand. So but you know, I've I've said

29
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 2: that since day one of this process of whatever the

30
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 2: team asked me to do, is that's what I'm gonna do.

31
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: Zach Kiefer, Well, what's your familiarity with the Colts offense?

32
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: You know, they just drafted a quarterback a couple of

33
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 1: nights ago. They got some pieces here. And then secondly,

34
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 1: what was your interaction with them through the draft process?

35
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: Was this a team you had circled or is this

36
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 1: a total surprise?

37
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, no, I mean obviously there's a lot of

38
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,959
Speaker 2: excitement going on up there. So just excited to be

39
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 2: a part of that. And you know, I had a

40
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 2: great meeting, you know, with coach Manning, and you know,

41
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: I thought we you know, we had a good meeting

42
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:53,639
Speaker 2: and got along well, and you know, I'm just excited

43
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 2: to get to work with him. So I think, you know,

44
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 2: I wasn't expecting this call, but I'm glad it happened.

45
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 1: Why weren't you expecting the call? Just had other teams

46
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:03,840
Speaker 1: you thought.

47
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 3: With Mike Call.

48
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think it's it's all kind of

49
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 2: secretive in the process, so you just you never really know.

50
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: So I guess I don't really know who I was expected.

51
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 3: All right, we'll do a couple more here. James Boyd, Well,

52
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 3: how did you get through? I guess the waiting game?

53
00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: And just what did you do to But I don't

54
00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: know by ther time?

55
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 2: Did you allow your most to get involved with it

56
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 2: because it's such a less changing experience. Yeah, you know,

57
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 2: it's obviously it felt like it was. It was just

58
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 2: going longer and longer and getting anxious. So I just

59
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 2: finally stood up and was just walking around and talking

60
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 2: with my family, and then all of a sudden my

61
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,519
Speaker 2: phone started ringing. I was I wasn't expecting it, and

62
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: I was like, all right, this is it. Let's go.

63
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,400
