Speaker 5: was like, nope, we want you to be forty six.
Speaker 5: Stay forty six. Since I try to switch it. Right
Speaker 5: when I made the team, I'm like, can I get
Speaker 5: like an eighty number?
Speaker 1: And they was like nope. Really yeah.
Speaker 5: There was like Mike Morris wants you to have forty six.
Speaker 5: I'm like, what's up with this dude? Like he wants

Speaker 5: when I came in the league two thousand and six,
Speaker 5: our jerseys was like the fish net jersey. So it
Speaker 5: was like that, and it was a four to six,
Speaker 5: so you know, it was the big boy. Yeah, hey, no,

Speaker 2: the Niners, Like, was that your seven you left? H yep,
Speaker 2: you're seven, You're seven, and then you went you went
Speaker 2: to the Titans, Like how was that departure? Like how'd
Speaker 2: you feel about that? As you grew up in California?
Speaker 2: You're little key in California. Besides, it's D three missouris
Speaker 2: spot you went to in college.
Speaker 4: At the time.
Speaker 5: I did because I knew they was gonna go back
Speaker 5: to the championship game they lost that year. But you
Speaker 5: know what, I don't think I'm actually involved in, Like
Speaker 5: I don't get carried away with like me leaving the
Speaker 5: team or going to a different team.
Speaker 4: I was like, who's gonna pay me?
Speaker 5: I need to be the starter because I'm in my mind,
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, burning my dog.
Speaker 4: But my mind, I'm like, I'm better than this guy.
Speaker 5: You know, That's how I think about anybody when I
Speaker 5: go in the field. I'm better than him. So I
Speaker 5: just need the opportunity to show that. And the Titans
Speaker 5: was like we got Craig Stevens, but he the blocker.
Speaker 5: Once they said that, I said, oh, hell yeah, that's
Speaker 5: what I was.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it worked out, bro. I mean, I ain't
Speaker 1: even gonna lie.
Speaker 5: I was disappointed when I first got to Tennessee obviously,
Speaker 5: because sucked. We sucked. We didn't have a we didn't
Speaker 5: have nothing. We didn't we didn't even have a steam room.
Speaker 5: When I first got here, I had to think about that.
Speaker 5: We have a steam room and Kotel was I mean,
Speaker 5: the whole whole facility was bad. But they started to
Speaker 5: grow as we started to win, so that was good.
Speaker 1: What was the relationship like with Vernon?
Speaker 3: Because I got to play Vernon and Washington and the Vernon,
Speaker 3: I feel like, I know, it's way different than the
Speaker 3: Vernon that you know.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, the Vernon you know, Now that's that's not
Speaker 5: the same Vernon when.
Speaker 3: It all smiles, very professional, just the nicest dude.
Speaker 1: Oh he always did. Always seemed very buttoned up.
Speaker 3: Like see some of the old photos of him in
Speaker 3: the club shirtless and ship like that. You're just like,
Speaker 3: who in the fuck is this? Oh yeah, he it's
Speaker 3: not the Vernon. I know it all, bro, because Vernon
Speaker 3: was quiet, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: Vernon was quiet before he had his wife and doing
Speaker 5: all the stuff he doing. Now whatever he got going on.
Speaker 5: This is the past Vernon.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, it's no longer happening.
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah yeah. So when I met Vernon, you know
Speaker 5: what I'm saying, he was click clack to me. That's
Speaker 5: what I called him clean because everybody know him from
Speaker 5: click clag. Obviously, any cried during the draft, so I'm like,
Speaker 5: is that the dude that cried? But I didn't see.
Speaker 5: I didn't know how big he was video I'm crying.
Speaker 5: I want to see why I've seen him right, I'm like, oh, bro,
Speaker 5: he is huge. But he didn't know who he was,
Speaker 5: but I did. You know what I'm saying, They thought
Speaker 5: I was urning homeboy didn't even play in the league
Speaker 5: at first, because he'll.
Speaker 1: Be like, man, I like that girl. I'll run over there,
Speaker 1: what's up, what's your name?
Speaker 4: Tell me.
Speaker 5: I'll be like, you know who that is. They're like, no,

Speaker 5: click clack. I said, yeah, that's click clack. They like
Speaker 5: what I'm like, bring all your homegirls, let's do it.
Speaker 5: So he he loved me because I would just get
Speaker 5: any and everybody.
Speaker 1: For this dude. Any one that that's my dog man
Speaker 1: he was emotional.
Speaker 4: Yeah the draft.
Speaker 1: Okay, this is the video of him to crying. He's, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: we don't need the fake crying video.
Speaker 7: Bro.
Speaker 1: He said he was doing like acting now right, and
Speaker 1: he's like, well, give us, give us a scene and
Speaker 1: he starts crying. Yeah, he acting right now, man.
Speaker 4: He and that is hilarious.
Speaker 3: You were like you were like the best sidekick of
Speaker 3: all time. Basically you will go to the unstanding is
Speaker 3: an outstanding. He doesn't care about he's.
Speaker 2: Legit like the people we talk about that like, have
Speaker 2: no shame in talk talking to somebody walker.
Speaker 5: I don't care like he and I knew he was
Speaker 5: the first round. See, Vernon flew me everywhere DC, Miami.
Speaker 5: I never paid for anything. So it was just like, shoot,
Speaker 5: what'd you say? We get the man, that's nothing. We
Speaker 5: end up we stand in a pithouse in Vegas wherever,
Speaker 5: he get me my room. I'm like, man, what girl
Speaker 5: you want? That's nothing. That's why they called me d
Speaker 5: Love because they like that boy good, that boy good.
Speaker 5: I go anywhere and just just talk man and make
Speaker 5: it happen. So, man, Vernie became real close like that.
Speaker 5: And then just in the game, you know, if he
Speaker 5: didn't know what he had, I'll tell him and stuff
Speaker 5: like that. So that kind of worked out well for
Speaker 5: him too, and uh vice versa, so well.
Speaker 1: He you legit had to tell him, he said in
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl, you got to I have to tell
Speaker 1: him if he earning Slant.
Speaker 5: And sometimes it'd be like, you know what I mean,
Speaker 5: the players would be you know how we have one
Speaker 5: word player. Yeah, And sometimes I guess he's just then
Speaker 5: studying him as much as he should have, and.
Speaker 4: Like, man, what I got right here?
Speaker 1: I'm like Verdie Slant, Like you get the ball? Getting
Speaker 1: the ball? That is crazy?
Speaker 2: What is Harrball when you were like when you were
Speaker 2: at San Francisco?
Speaker 1: Was he one of the best coaches you ever had?
Speaker 1: Halball could be coming back in the league. No, he's not,
Speaker 1: could be rumored.
Speaker 4: I really think he's gonna leave Michigan.
Speaker 1: I think we've talked about this.
Speaker 2: I think it really turns into what's his team looked
Speaker 2: like next year?
Speaker 1: If he thinks he.
Speaker 2: Had my team might fall off for the next couple years.
Speaker 2: I could see him dipping. Yeah, he's not gonna say roster's.
Speaker 1: Right in the NFL, Like you know, you go, you
Speaker 1: get into a better situation.
Speaker 5: But I'm saying he gonna take a pay cut he
Speaker 5: leave Michigan, he gonna get paid less to be an
Speaker 5: NFL owner.
Speaker 1: What was he getting paid now?
Speaker 3: But to Taylor's point, like you could look at the
Speaker 3: raw certain think like, you know, Michigan might not be
Speaker 3: where the're at right now. When the playoffs the second
Speaker 3: year in a round did before you, you know, ultimately
Speaker 3: get fired. You think they're gonna fire Jim. I don't
Speaker 3: think so. I'm just trying to play long game, like
Speaker 3: you just have to think ahead.
Speaker 2: Got to think ahead because the due j all tastes
Speaker 2: a season and a half, sometimes just a season.
Speaker 1: But Jim is thirty six. Come on, bro, he ain't leaving.
Speaker 2: That's five years thirty six. You never know, You never
Speaker 2: never really never know.
Speaker 1: You never fucking know whatever he did? What was what
Speaker 1: was your experience like with him as the head man?
Speaker 4: Best coach ever?
Speaker 1: Oh? For real?
Speaker 4: I love Jim.
Speaker 5: Jim the reason why I was able to do it.
Speaker 5: I did other coaches when they wouldn't even put me.
Speaker 5: They put me on the field to be a fullback,
Speaker 5: just go lead block. Jim was like, you got so
Speaker 5: much talent and he had coached me in the Las
Speaker 5: Vegas Bowl, so he knew exactly who I was. So
Speaker 5: at the end of the day, he was like, I
Speaker 5: need you to be pretty much a quarterback of this
Speaker 5: offense too, so I can play multiple positions. And he
Speaker 5: was just real, man, just I like coaches like that.
Speaker 5: He never beat around the bush. He was the type
Speaker 5: of dude where would put a basketball in the court.
Speaker 5: According the locker room you come in in the morning,
Speaker 5: he's shooting. He shooting free throws, like he like, come
Speaker 5: get a one on one, Like he wanted to get
Speaker 5: a one on one physical though, like he bumping you,
Speaker 5: you gotta toss him around to get the rebound, like
Speaker 5: he ain't scared. And I'm like, this is the type
Speaker 5: of coach I like, ready to fight. And I don't
Speaker 5: know if I should bring himself. But that Detroit game,
Speaker 5: that's what really made me like that man. You know
Speaker 5: when he went over there and uh slapped cuzzole in
Speaker 5: the back and kept moving and.
Speaker 1: I don't think I he shake him, but he slapped
Speaker 1: them in the back.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: He just had that kind of like mentality like he's
Speaker 1: got the mind, bro. When he started doing that, like like, uh,
Speaker 1: you got real serious, because it seems like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: he's like, what the fuck the other coaches he didn't
Speaker 1: like that. He didn't like that because he was like, man,
Speaker 1: once our kick is ass, I'm gonna go over there
Speaker 1: and I don't wanna shake slap a minute back as
Speaker 1: hard as I can. And he did it. He said
Speaker 1: that before, he said that before the game. Yeah, beef.
Speaker 4: I think they have beef because they right now.
Speaker 1: They used to coach with each other back in the
Speaker 1: day for at the Titans. Now, no yet, he's like
Speaker 1: a defensive liaison.
Speaker 4: Are you serious?
Speaker 1: He's there, he walks around there all time. I'm pretty
Speaker 1: sure it's him.
Speaker 4: I won that won that too.
Speaker 1: I just thought about that. He's still there. Look at him.
Speaker 4: He didn't like that.
Speaker 1: Boom, get your away. Oh my, y'all look at him.
Speaker 1: Y'all love that. I love how he said it to
Speaker 1: the seventy six.
Speaker 2: That's Anthony, just Anthony, like like Madonna last name. He's
Speaker 2: just dude. That is that's a fucking move right there. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it is a nice little flex. Yeah he did that. Man,
Speaker 2: he was uh, he talked about doing it and he
Speaker 2: did it. I was like, damn, this dude, crazy.
Speaker 1: Who is if Hardball is the best coach you ever had,
Speaker 1: who is your least favorite coach you had in the NFL?
Speaker 5: Uh? Damn man, That's that's tough. I hate to say that.
Speaker 5: You never know who maybe ended up working for one
Speaker 5: of these coaches.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're trying to coach, You're trying to get
Speaker 1: in a coach on.
Speaker 4: No, maybe down the line, it may happen.
Speaker 5: You know what I mean When I feel like I'm
Speaker 5: old and not really think.
Speaker 8: You'd want to work for Rabel, I work with Ray, Bro,
Speaker 8: you don't want to do coaching, honestly, think I was
Speaker 8: like Rabel.
Speaker 1: Huh, it's definitely not Rabel. I like Ray.
Speaker 5: But I'll have to say Singletary is probably my least favorite.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's because and he he was old school. We
Speaker 3: hit every day.
Speaker 5: It was crazy, the way we practiced, the way he
Speaker 5: talked to us.
Speaker 3: It was just it was like a little disrespectful, little disrespectful.
Speaker 1: Really you see what he did to Vernon? Yeah I
Speaker 1: saw that.
Speaker 3: But but you never know, like he's you know, he's
Speaker 3: got the image of him Stulf like you know, you
Speaker 3: watch his football life and everything.
Speaker 1: The way he's he's he know.
Speaker 3: He he's football inside and out, so you just never
Speaker 3: know what the context is.
Speaker 5: I mean, he a family guy, obviously had his family there.
Speaker 5: But don't mean every coach ain't a good coach. I mean,
Speaker 5: just because you played the game at a high level,
Speaker 5: don't mean you're not a coaching, you know what.
Speaker 1: I Meaneah, So were you were you on that team
Speaker 1: with Vernon when he did that? Vernon? Yeah? I was.
Speaker 1: I was on Vernon. Deserve that, na, man?
Speaker 5: He look, bro he Vernon dropped like two passes that game.
Speaker 5: He caught a pass and then like flick the ball
Speaker 5: on a person, got a personal foul, took it back.
Speaker 5: He tells. He goes, you ain't that good to be
Speaker 5: doing that. He tells Vernon that on the sideline. So
Speaker 5: Vernon loses his his crack, Like who are you talking to?
Speaker 5: He said, I'm talking to you. Go to the locker room.
Speaker 5: You're done.
Speaker 1: Oh no, it was that simple.
Speaker 3: There was no like, there's no context like this earlier
Speaker 3: in the week or nothing, no history with Vernon.
Speaker 5: Oh no, he just never liked it. Vernon because he
Speaker 5: made a rap song right after that. He came, Oh,
Speaker 5: Singletary made a rap song, y'all? Think I'm playing.

Speaker 5: He crazy too.
Speaker 1: He's funny, like he'll come in your room and just

Speaker 1: That's hilarious, Bro, just a monster dipping dude.
Speaker 5: That's funny. That's funny that you know them two dudes.
Speaker 1: He makes funny. Fuck you just fucking hit them all.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you would have liked them too, though, Taylor, I
Speaker 5: promise you we didn't.
Speaker 4: Haven't like that at the Titans.
Speaker 2: Sounds like you guys had a bit of an interesting
Speaker 2: deal over at San Francisco.
Speaker 5: Well, he was at Washington. They went to Washington after
Speaker 5: they came from San Francisco. But in San Francisco, it
Speaker 5: was just like the Titans. We had a different coach,
Speaker 5: a different coaching staff every year. So every year, that's
Speaker 5: why I know so many coaches because they all came
Speaker 5: through the building.
Speaker 1: And the door. It was like, y'all terrible, next, y'all terrible.
Speaker 5: No, Yeah, And I feel bad because the coaches get
Speaker 5: fired even when the players is terrible.
Speaker 4: And we is in San Francisco.
Speaker 5: Partying every night when we is having to lose after
Speaker 5: the game, we have a bus waiting for all of
Speaker 5: us take his party. We was terrible because we didn't.
Speaker 5: We just partied every night. And then what we wanted
Speaker 5: it was San Francisco was like lick, you know what
Speaker 5: I mean. Then as Jim Harball came in, first day
Speaker 5: he did, he came, he was like, I'm about to
Speaker 5: burn the grass, and we all like that, what the
Speaker 5: hell he talking about? That was the first mean He's like,
Speaker 5: I'm gonna burn the grass. Were like, burn the grass.
Speaker 5: He's like yeah, because I want to find all the snakes.
Speaker 5: And then he every day he was releasing catch cash, like.
Speaker 1: Hold on, we may be next.
Speaker 5: So it was just like everybody started to change around
Speaker 5: with yeah, because he was bringing in cats he played
Speaker 5: with at Stanford that wasn't no names. He just knew
Speaker 5: that they worked hard, and he was like, this is
Speaker 5: what I want. This is what I want out of everybody.
Speaker 5: Them cats that came from Stanford was just like running
Speaker 5: hard at practic, going hard, yeah hard. Cat's like, okay,
Speaker 5: letting us know. We don't care about big names right now.
Speaker 5: I'll let you go if you don't do your job.
Speaker 5: So I think so it is too.
Speaker 3: It's like because even if you're on a bad team,
Speaker 3: the media saying, oh, it's the coaches.
Speaker 1: The players are going to feed into that. Be like,
Speaker 1: you ain't got the coaches. You know you're not playing
Speaker 1: well because you're trying to have your job next year.
Speaker 2: On the Ross Doggy Dog World Ude, everyone's trying to
Speaker 2: get their world.
Speaker 1: Everyone is just trying to get theirs.
Speaker 2: What did you like the locker room comparison between the
Speaker 2: Titans and the forty nine ers, Like, what did you
Speaker 2: like find yourself enjoying more?
Speaker 5: I would have to say when I was in San Francisco,
Speaker 5: when I came in the league, it was different, right
Speaker 5: because two thousand and six it was hazing. It was
Speaker 5: just like, you know, they can treat this a little different.
Speaker 1: You know they could do a lot.
Speaker 5: So it was almost where you I think that's why
Speaker 5: I had that mentality when I got to the Titans.
Speaker 5: I didn't really if you was rookie, I ain't talked
Speaker 5: to you unless I thought you was gonna be good
Speaker 5: or you did not.
Speaker 2: You're not talking to anybody stories about I've said this
Speaker 2: in the podcast. Before Delaney would literally walk up. Guys
Speaker 2: would walk up to Delaney in his locker and he'd
Speaker 2: be doing his little routine, his little skin routine or
Speaker 2: whatever might no one took longer getting getting ready after practicing.
Speaker 3: This man the speaker there and like he's got to
Speaker 3: have a full and it'd be like.
Speaker 1: A third or fourth round draft pick.
Speaker 2: He dude that was drafted be like hey, mister Walker,
Speaker 2: like nice to meet you, and he'd be like, I'm
Speaker 2: not gonna shake your hand.
Speaker 1: If you make the team, i'll know your name. And
Speaker 1: he would just go back to doing whatever.
Speaker 2: And he would see these poor casts like so like defeated,
Speaker 2: so deflated Walker, just because like I did mostel any
Speaker 2: of them in the summer.
Speaker 5: I liked it when you came in. I kind of
Speaker 5: was like I watched it, but I'm like, okay, this
Speaker 5: dude crazy. And then you had got into a lot
Speaker 5: of other stuff on the fighting just up, so I'm like,
Speaker 5: I like, oh, I see I like old Liman's like that.
Speaker 5: I don't want an old lineman where I can come
Speaker 5: up and to be like I could probably beat this
Speaker 5: dude up. Like that shouldn't be the case in football.
Speaker 5: The old lineman should be like, I mean we can fight,
Speaker 5: but you know they beat me up. Yeah, But if
Speaker 5: I can be like, I can whoop this dude. I
Speaker 5: don't want him as an old lineman. So when Taylor came,
Speaker 5: I was like, let's see he went to Michigan teem crazy.
Speaker 5: But then we played like this flag football game and
Speaker 5: this dude was out there running rounds catching passes. I'm like, oh, okay,
Speaker 5: this he caught a pass on me. I kind of
Speaker 5: slacked on them.
Speaker 3: I kind of was just sitting back and he got
Speaker 3: me behind me.
Speaker 1: This is fucking mind, dude. He scored a touchdown. I'm like, okay.
Speaker 5: And then after that I started hanging out with Taylor,
Speaker 5: and I was like, I like this dude.
Speaker 4: So I talked to Taylor before that.
Speaker 5: I knew he was gonna be a player anyway at
Speaker 5: the end of the day because I just hung out
Speaker 5: with him.
Speaker 4: But any other dude that came in, they.
Speaker 1: Had a brand new car, like chain on him. You
Speaker 1: ain't this ship, don't know, And I'm pockets. Every time
Speaker 1: you own the pockets, you pockets.
Speaker 5: I had a nickname for anybody if you did anything
Speaker 5: you did I didn't like. I probably was gonna say
Speaker 5: it jokingly, but it wasted, but I meant it. And
Speaker 5: you know what, I'm saying I think Cash felt that,
Speaker 5: but to me, that's how I feel like I would
Speaker 5: make you better, Like I don't think you good because
Speaker 5: you're not good yet.
Speaker 1: Who is that safety that went to I think he
Speaker 1: went to Nebraska.
Speaker 2: Oh oh oh, I wanted to fight that one that
Speaker 2: you practice. Something happened. Delanny did one of those real jokes.
Speaker 2: He was just like disrespecting this man.
Speaker 5: That's when the eye the eye watchers first came out
Speaker 5: and he brought one and I walked up said, damn,
Speaker 5: bro you're gonna go broke.
Speaker 1: And he would have legit took you that. He went
Speaker 1: to the car.
Speaker 4: He remember he ran to the car and everything.
Speaker 2: He was in your face like he was like about
Speaker 2: to legit fight Delanna. And Delanny was his like her laughing.
Speaker 1: I was like, he's like in his face like this close.
Speaker 9: He was, You ain't gonna do shiit nothing. Your uncle Tom?
Speaker 9: I said, why am my uncle Tom? The coaches because
Speaker 9: the coaches gets your dick. I'm like, because I'm the
Speaker 9: uncle Tom because they kissed my dick. Har Am I
Speaker 9: the uncle Tom. You're gonna get me cut? Bro, I
Speaker 9: can't get you cut.
Speaker 5: You can get you cut that's what I was just
Speaker 5: talking to him, like they come out side. I said,
Speaker 5: come outside for what? Come outside so I can whoop you.
Speaker 5: Bro it's cameras outside while we're gonna go outside. I'm
Speaker 5: just joking with him the whole time, just trying to
Speaker 5: like egg him on. But he was so mad. I said, bro,
Speaker 5: all I said was your eye watch was expensive. While
Speaker 5: you bad, I said, you're.
Speaker 1: Gonna go broke, broke. That's what different than being like,
Speaker 1: hey man, that's a pretty expensive one. Like I questioned
Speaker 1: this man because he had like seven kids too.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and he had he brought like he had like
Speaker 5: the DB's, was buying all types of cars, and yeah,
Speaker 5: they were going a little crazy.
Speaker 4: It was going.
Speaker 1: Crazy, and I weren't good. That a't gonna be easy
Speaker 1: on my guy. Damn O. He was my roommate my
Speaker 1: senior year in college, but that was we were home.
Speaker 3: So yeah, he literally fought he fought a safety of
Speaker 3: oars over a bag of fucking chips, I believe while.
Speaker 1: He got his new teeth.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I believe he fought another safety of ours over
Speaker 3: a bag of chips from Jimmy John Chips where we
Speaker 3: were bowl prepping and they came in and so uh
Speaker 3: uh the other the other safety Harvey came in and
Speaker 3: took chips out of his bag. He's like, come on, man,
Speaker 3: I ain't playing that, and then they like said something
Speaker 3: back and forth. I'm like sitting in the second. It's
Speaker 3: like early in the morning, We're about to have a
Speaker 3: defensive meeting. They get up and start scrapping leg Yeah. Yes,

Speaker 3: remember Cody.
Speaker 1: Holliseing, Yes, he killed him. He was killing Cody? Are
Speaker 1: you the most are you ever going to be the
Speaker 1: most talented? Killed him because you went up to that
Speaker 1: little wall. I went over to the wall. He's a
Speaker 1: wall now like guys.
Speaker 2: That like exemplify like what we want the Titans to be.
Speaker 2: And he was like a three time winner, really three
Speaker 2: time winning.

Speaker 1: course he loved buddy. He loves I mean there's a
Speaker 1: good reason. Yeah, the guy's a dog. Yeah. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: he's pretty good, monster, Jeff.
Speaker 3: There was a clip and practice where Jeff kind of
Speaker 3: like swung on somebody or like push up to the
Speaker 3: play and you know how to you know how Ray
Speaker 3: would be on anybody that first year, like doing stuff
Speaker 3: like that, Like he's cussing, he's cussing him out, and
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, Jeff, hey, anybody who wants to who
Speaker 3: wants an example of leadership, Big Jeff, I know you're
Speaker 3: frustrated right here. This is exactly how you be a leader.
Speaker 3: Anybody else does this, you'll get cut a big Jeff.
Speaker 1: You know, I love your brother. That's what Cash used
Speaker 1: to say about me. Like, hey, remember.
Speaker 5: Terry used to say that he'd be like on our
Speaker 5: bye way he said, any he said, three guys, sip,
Speaker 5: where's y'all?
Speaker 1: He'll be like me, me, you and like that Marcus, Yeah, market,
Speaker 1: where's the hand?
Speaker 5: They said, if anyone else get in trouble, there y'all
Speaker 5: getting cut.
Speaker 1: Them. Three guys are on the team. But what else
Speaker 1: get any trouble you're getting Biskey was so funny.
Speaker 2: We would be doing, uh, installing our offensive game planner.
Speaker 2: Busk held be in the kitchen eating grits. Yeah, office coordinator,
Speaker 2: offensive coordinator.
Speaker 5: When they would ask him, so one year, Malarkey would go,
Speaker 5: he would ask anybody a question about the office. He'll
Speaker 5: be like, what you got on whatever? Thirty two? Trap together?
Speaker 5: Tell him that.
Speaker 1: He go, Terry what what? What is? Uh? What is
Speaker 1: this play? What everyone got? Terry Black offensive court? He
Speaker 1: didn't even know that. He wouldn't say. It's like that too,
Speaker 1: Like you make a bunch of noises and guys just
Speaker 1: start laughing, start laughing. Our game planning then was so easy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like we literally like ran it on first and
Speaker 2: second down and then third down was like, hey, I
Speaker 2: hope we can make this third dun conversion.
Speaker 5: Well that's what we was. We was gonna run, run, run,
Speaker 5: and if we can throw, we'll throw.
Speaker 1: And then we'll just throw to Delaney. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, most of the time, we're gonna run it.
Speaker 3: And now you were like the tight end that you
Speaker 3: didn't get as much notoriety as all the other big
Speaker 3: name tight ends. But I remember like in Washington, you guys,
Speaker 3: I think you guys came to Washington and it was
Speaker 3: literally fifteen Literally red Zone is just all like, hey,
Speaker 3: Rahie Morris, I remember it. He would be like this
Speaker 3: motherfucker can play like we have got to double this
Speaker 3: dude Like he ain't gonna have He ain't up there
Speaker 3: in all the headlines with all the mother nights I is,
Speaker 3: but he's better than all of them.
Speaker 5: Just trust me when I tell you that. And you know,
Speaker 5: I get a lot of grief on that was speaking
Speaker 5: on that, but it was just because we wasn't winning
Speaker 5: a lot of games. Obviously a lot of people didn't
Speaker 5: watch us. But why is it if your team don't
Speaker 5: win games, even if you perform at a high level
Speaker 5: that we not talked about are rated higher because your
Speaker 5: team not doing well, but you still doing performing at
Speaker 5: a high level. Every time you play another team, they
Speaker 5: trying to stop you. They can't stop you. Why is
Speaker 5: that an issue? But that's just what the leads.
Speaker 1: The media market, is there.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean if you look at the Titans media market
Speaker 2: compared to like Phillies or any of the New York
Speaker 2: New York teams.
Speaker 3: Oh, it's it's you can And I remember when I
Speaker 3: came in Rack Rack was because Rack was with me
Speaker 3: in Washington, and I remember like the first cold practice,
Speaker 3: like there's like a few reporters standing out there and
Speaker 3: Racks like, hey, come, you ain't gotta worry about it
Speaker 3: out here, Like they don't. They don't like make headlines
Speaker 3: to try and tear people down because DC's like a
Speaker 3: stepping someone to like ESPN's and shit.
Speaker 1: So there's drama all the time.
Speaker 3: You can imagine the drama between the RG three, the
Speaker 3: Kirk Cousins, that saga, just everything bro.
Speaker 1: I mean we still see with Dan Snyder and all that.
Speaker 3: But it's like I came to Tennessee and it just
Speaker 3: didn't seem It's the media stuff seemed non existent.
Speaker 1: At the time. There's like one villain and that's it exactly.
Speaker 1: There's just like it's just very small.
Speaker 3: It's like a small sa Like if you were doing
Speaker 3: that in Dallas, I'm sure you'd probably still be getting love.
Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
Speaker 5: Oh, but you know what, And I told when I
Speaker 5: AJ went to Philly, I say, it's you're gonna see
Speaker 5: it's gonna be different. You know what I'm saying, You're
Speaker 5: gonna start seeing a lot of different stuff. And look
Speaker 5: at him, Look where he at, Look what he doing?
Speaker 1: What's different stuff? Are you talking about?
Speaker 5: Like social media platform, getting endorsements outside of football, making
Speaker 5: getting the revenue outside of football. That's how you grow
Speaker 5: your revenue outside of football in a bigger market.
Speaker 4: I'm watching him.
Speaker 5: He's doing commercials, he doing all these like partnerships he's getting. Man,
Speaker 5: I'm like, that's what I like to see. I mean,
Speaker 5: I hate, I don't want to hate on nobody to
Speaker 5: ever play with us. I want to see everyone I
Speaker 5: ever play with just be successful and get the bread
Speaker 5: that they deserve, because why do it?
Speaker 4: Why not?
Speaker 1: Forever?
Speaker 4: Off forever?
Speaker 5: And honestly, you know what I'm saying, Tennessee is starting
Speaker 5: to grow. It set us back though. When we first
Speaker 5: this season first started, they talked about Tennessee, Tennessee, Tennessee,
Speaker 5: Tennessee the team, Tennessee the team. You know, we was
Speaker 5: getting all the primetime games and now all of this craziness.
Speaker 4: You're gonna the games was falling back.
Speaker 5: We ain't gonna get them primetime games now watch and
Speaker 5: that's what I'm telling you. We kind of because instant
Speaker 5: so we can get them headlines. We can still get
Speaker 5: them prime time games. But I don't know what it's
Speaker 5: gonna look like after you.
Speaker 3: Can you can be shitty like like I know, I
Speaker 3: said Dallas already, but you could be Dallas and be shitty,
Speaker 3: but you're still gonna get primetime game.
Speaker 1: You'll get times.
Speaker 5: When they was not playing well, they were still getting
Speaker 5: prime time games no matter what, because what Dallas market
Speaker 5: is huge.
Speaker 2: Jerry Jones did an excellent job, you get what I'm saying, incredible.
Speaker 2: But the Titans are getting better. And here's the issue too,
Speaker 2: is like their offense. Our offense isn't flashy, Like it's
Speaker 2: not something that's gonna put up a bunch of points
Speaker 2: through and stuff like that.
Speaker 3: So unless you're still winning consistently, like you about in
Speaker 3: King Henry's being King Henry going after a record, you're
Speaker 3: not gonna get like, you're not gonna get those times
Speaker 3: slots on you're that stuff fa Like now that they've
Speaker 3: dropped the couples can be like damn, you know you
Speaker 3: see all the head like.
Speaker 2: Flexing games already, know, like the Chargers game, they flexed
Speaker 2: that to some of that football. Yeah, it's just how
Speaker 2: you hope it doesn't happen to the Titans because you
Speaker 2: want them to be successful, But like we gotta get
Speaker 2: you gotta be more consistent, like you're saying, but like
Speaker 2: that is that happens like very Ye's the best coach
Speaker 2: you've ever seen as far as like coaching a team.
Speaker 2: They're going to right the wrongs, but you lose three
Speaker 2: in a row so quick. Like when I was watching
Speaker 2: the game yesterday and saw in the third quarter of
Speaker 2: the fans booing, It's like, bro, you guys don't remember
Speaker 2: eight nine years ago when we could barely win.
Speaker 1: We won five games in two years.
Speaker 3: I was at the stadium, buddy, you were there, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I was, And it's just like, dude, you can't.
Speaker 2: It was tough, Like the Titans fans have been given
Speaker 2: a gift. Now I understand, like the standard is getting
Speaker 2: higher and high and there it's been below the standard
Speaker 2: the last.
Speaker 1: Three weeks a few weeks, yeah, the last three games.
Speaker 1: But like when we got here, it was not that. No,
Speaker 1: we didn't didn't have a standard day. There was no standard.
Speaker 1: It was just like, hey, we're in the NFL.
Speaker 2: How legit would go home and I'd be like old
Speaker 2: people would be like, hey, you play football is yeah,
Speaker 2: but the Titan's like, oh are wena?
Speaker 1: I was like, no, that is in the NFL. Team
Speaker 1: have an NFL team called the Titans like legit, like
Speaker 1: Titans had been put on the map.
Speaker 2: I just think yetta give a little bit of grace
Speaker 2: obviously firing John Robinson the AJ trade, Like that's that's
Speaker 2: fucking tough. You think like, hey, how is it going
Speaker 2: to get better? Like le is gonna make it better?
Speaker 2: Get they gotta get some legit talent in there.
Speaker 3: The league is though, like it's a performance based like
Speaker 3: the industry in general, it's a performance based world. And
Speaker 3: some people think like some of the criticisms are like
Speaker 3: you had the core guys with like Derek and everybody
Speaker 3: else going at the high level, like you had that
Speaker 3: little window and people are now talking about is that
Speaker 3: window fizzling out because Dereks getting older? It's like, damn
Speaker 3: the opportunity that we had to that the Titans had
Speaker 3: to like be greater go after a Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: Did they kind of fuck that up or mess that
Speaker 1: up the way? I don't think er.
Speaker 2: I think Derek's getting older, obviously, because that's how years work.
Speaker 2: But I don't think his like talent or like how
Speaker 2: good he is has changed. I think you've you've had
Speaker 2: injuries in the offensive line, You've treated your best receivers,
Speaker 2: and now you can stack the box like it is
Speaker 2: much that's more difficult for him to get the consistent
Speaker 2: yard tier is getting without a j Julio, like even
Speaker 2: even Ferkster when he's going off, like you know what
Speaker 2: I'm saying, Like Jnu Smith has gone now Corey Davis.
Speaker 3: The frustrations of you had AJ, you had Derek, you
Speaker 3: had all you had these guys at this point in time.
Speaker 3: You trade Aj away, you do all these things, and
Speaker 3: now it's like, fuck, what are they even gonna look
Speaker 3: like if they make it to the playoffs now?
Speaker 2: But a dramatic change in the Titans locker room next year,
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, a dramatic turnover.
Speaker 4: It's like chess pieces.
Speaker 5: You know what I mean that that that move that
Speaker 5: they made with AJ didn't work out, You get what
Speaker 5: I'm saying, Like and it did not work out, and
Speaker 5: a bigger trickle effect happened off of that, just by
Speaker 5: us playing AJ and what he did. I felt like
Speaker 5: that was a trickle effect. They was like, we didn't
Speaker 5: want to get rid of AJ, but we did, and
Speaker 5: then now look what happened. You know what I mean,
Speaker 5: Look what this guy is doing in the league right now,
Speaker 5: No question he's.
Speaker 1: Going crazy him like you know, he's just hypereat year.
Speaker 1: But anytime you can go in and put him numbers
Speaker 1: like that in your old squad and you're old, know
Speaker 1: that you're part of the like a front runner for
Speaker 1: the super.
Speaker 3: Bowl right now? Ten and one bron eleven and one.
Speaker 2: Yes waen fucking off, dude, went all he's feeling good,
Speaker 2: like you win.
Speaker 1: Right now, be happier than.
Speaker 4: His happy for AJ. But don't get me wrong.
Speaker 1: I was. I was.
Speaker 5: I'm still happy for the Titans. We're still in the
Speaker 5: division leaders. It doesn't really matter. We can get in
Speaker 5: the playoffs and start playing great playoff football and get
Speaker 5: back to who we need to be. I feel like
Speaker 5: we'll get if we get to the playoffs, we can
Speaker 5: get some of the old line healthy, because I think
Speaker 5: that's where it starts. Just getting our whole line back healthy,
Speaker 5: because that's key. We got to be able to protect
Speaker 5: Ryan and let Derek run the ball obviously, because I
Speaker 5: know Ryan gets a lot of bad critic about holding
Speaker 5: the ball doing this. I feel like he's just trying
Speaker 5: to make plays. He trying to do something to get
Speaker 5: the team going, get the motivation going. And at the
Speaker 5: end of the day, it's gonna take all eleven of them.
Speaker 1: And he's been hurt too. He is injury.
Speaker 5: Keep coming out. He hurt because he know he got
Speaker 5: to play. Like honestly, he gotta play, you know what
Speaker 5: I mean.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, the best chance for the Titans to win
Speaker 1: is with Ryan. I mean that's why you say that
Speaker 1: being healthy.
Speaker 3: To remember I was telling you I was like the
Speaker 3: Titans defense, they only got like four five starters out
Speaker 3: there from.
Speaker 1: I didn't know that. I did not know that at
Speaker 1: the original.
Speaker 3: Eleven at the beginning of the year, like they you know,
Speaker 3: just out there playing. But he's on a bum there. Yeah,
Speaker 3: he hurt.
Speaker 5: Like our whole D line and our whole old line
Speaker 5: just hurt right now. They just once we get them healthy,
Speaker 5: I feel like it will be a change.
Speaker 1: And losing Harold the playoffs.
Speaker 3: That's the biggest thing that identity going into playoffs.
Speaker 1: It's literally all the fucking.
Speaker 2: The thing that worries the Titans fans though, is that
Speaker 2: usually this is the time of year Titans are playing
Speaker 2: their best football and obviously dropping.
Speaker 1: No that's making people worried. Kevin said it the best.
Speaker 5: He said, usually around this time, this is when people
Speaker 5: was playing playoff football, right and we ain't doing that
Speaker 5: right now. And that's true, and that's what we got
Speaker 5: to do. I think if they get that at that
Speaker 5: mindset that this is the playoffs now, it starts right now.
Speaker 5: If we want to get first seed, have home field advantage,
Speaker 5: we need to start right now because that's what's gonna
Speaker 5: keep us in his playoffs, gives us better opportunity to
Speaker 5: win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1: So do you find yourself identifying more with Titans over
Speaker 1: Starns Titans? For sure? You said there stapping that sword
Speaker 1: in the ground. I saw, yeah.
Speaker 5: I'll be at the games all the time. I'll be
Speaker 5: low key though. Man, this last game, I man, it
Speaker 5: was crazy. I thought it was I you know what,
Speaker 5: our fans are starting to get crazy too, because we
Speaker 5: was walking out. They was ready to scrap with them
Speaker 5: Jaguars because then them Jaguars fil was duval.
Speaker 4: Yeah that I'm like, I.
Speaker 1: Mean they haven't want I haven't won. Yeah in Nashville.
Speaker 1: How many days was us in thirteen? I have not
Speaker 1: won a natal thousand days or something like that.
Speaker 2: We went to and fourteen my rookie year, and one
Speaker 2: of those wins was against Jacksonville.
Speaker 1: After all, they went and leave one like they finally
Speaker 1: did it.
Speaker 2: On the the commentaries were basically saying, like this Jaguars
Speaker 2: team is fired up.
Speaker 4: Fired up in the crowd everything. I'm like, Wow, you.
Speaker 2: Don't really think about that as the Titans player, Like
Speaker 2: you don't think, oh man, they want to beat us
Speaker 2: so bad. You just think it's a division opponent, you know,
Speaker 2: you don't think there's like a rivalry there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're just kind of playing. Yeah, they had it
Speaker 1: out for us.
Speaker 5: I was sitting there some dudes that dove all in
Speaker 5: my face out literally almost smacked them, like I forgot,
Speaker 5: I don't even play, let me chill out, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they are fucking I mean good for them though,
Speaker 2: because they're They're franchise has been in the dumps, yeah
Speaker 2: the entire time.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they got a coach.
Speaker 2: They got a coach right now like the only time,
Speaker 2: like twenty sixteen they had they were good.
Speaker 1: Other than that, it.
Speaker 3: Was when did they have to run to the Super
Speaker 3: Bowl twenty sixteen? They went to the FC Championship, AFC Championship.
Speaker 2: No, they lost to who they lose the Patriots? Steelers?
Speaker 2: What they beat the Steelers? They lost the Patriots in

Speaker 2: the on the offensive line got fine. The kicker is
Speaker 2: a specialist like the I think Bo Brinkley got fined,
Speaker 2: got fine. Yes, they were like no haircuts and then
Speaker 2: literally that night that night we did haircuts. Everyone got haircuts.

Speaker 5: call was Chance. Yeah, still is still is. Whenever we
Speaker 5: had a dummy call, like it ain't a play, we
Speaker 5: called it Chance. Yeah, because he would jump off side
Speaker 5: on the dummy call every time.
Speaker 1: Chance was the best that he was the best guard
Speaker 1: in the league at that three thing. He didn't move.
Speaker 1: He didn't move like slanting a gap or anything like that.
Speaker 1: You couldn't beat Chance.
Speaker 4: You can't beat him, but that boy moved. Oh but
Speaker 4: and if it was a pool play.

Speaker 1: my god, movie football team. That's just trash.
Speaker 3: But our defense, yeah, you get you get two guys
Speaker 3: pulling and running in sho that was that looked so terrible.
Speaker 2: Michael Griffin is like the most noteworthy name on this
Speaker 2: saying that. And drell Casey Griff was he was terrible
Speaker 2: that year. He was he was still a name. But
Speaker 2: it was like definitely in the back.
Speaker 4: Of Brian rack Pole, Derek Morgan, dre.
Speaker 3: Where Brian Williams oh ship would Yeah what what what
Speaker 3: had twelve tackles that year.
Speaker 1: Wood was the dude that was always underrated on our time.
Speaker 2: We have so many tackles and like not even be close,
Speaker 2: I know, not even but he wouldn't even be like
Speaker 2: a uh.
Speaker 1: Not even an alternate, not even an alternate. Yo, that's crazy.
Speaker 1: They did would I thought, what was a great player?
Speaker 3: And again that's the game, uh, Tennessee being that Tennessee market,

Speaker 2: not very smart hand up going to Brown Doc Brown
Speaker 2: Da ended up making a Pro Bowl with them, I know, not.
Speaker 3: With us with the Buffalo Bills because he led the
Speaker 3: league and tackles and then and then and then nobady
Speaker 3: got him in free agency. Yeah, he's not like a
Speaker 3: one for like two and a half up to four
Speaker 3: million dollars making a Pro Bowl And that's actually he
Speaker 3: took my spot. And that's when Tom Suleis said, hey,
Speaker 3: because he saw the scourge about it and he's like, hey,
Speaker 3: I got what you called, fuck you money.
Speaker 1: I don't have to split reps. That's literally that whole.
Speaker 1: That's that whole. Really.
Speaker 3: Zach Brown came and he was like he murdered somebody
Speaker 3: in a preseason game. And just from there it was
Speaker 3: just cover one. Running back was sitting down the flat,
Speaker 3: he was just over him. Quarterback throws it out to
Speaker 3: him and he's just damned near. Dude was athletics.
Speaker 1: Athletics never worked out, but it was like champ and
Speaker 1: high school. When he would talk to you couldn't understand
Speaker 1: what he was saying.
Speaker 5: He was really Alabama, where are you? But where are
Speaker 5: he from? Though he's from d C.
Speaker 1: Is he Yeah, he's like Florida. You get out of Wednesday.

Speaker 3: how he's got back spasms.
Speaker 1: Oh he always had back makes something up every time.
Speaker 4: He always had back spasms.
Speaker 1: But I don't know how.
Speaker 5: I remember playing against Ill used to we use a
Speaker 5: love Compton name because your last name we are like
Speaker 5: well Compton.
Speaker 1: Yeah, every time talking about when you guys came out
Speaker 1: to Washington. He came that game.
Speaker 2: We shouldn't have lost that game. Yeah, yeah, we had
Speaker 2: me in a blender that game, you rec was.
Speaker 3: That's when he had them commercials going talking about, you know,
Speaker 3: the pyramid the commercials are.
Speaker 1: Is that what it was? All State? Maybe that's just
Speaker 1: the voice connection. I think it was just in d C. Though.
Speaker 4: I think it was in d C though only.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'm saying he got a Pro Bowl like
Speaker 1: he was. He was like the man he was. I
Speaker 1: think he made three Pro Bowls. It was like the
Speaker 1: man too.
Speaker 4: He was the starting linebacker.
Speaker 1: It was. It was yeah, you know because when he
Speaker 1: came to Tennessee, I'm like, ship, we get will comp Yeah,
Speaker 1: what happened?
Speaker 3: Draft was sunk brof Yeah, ball my boys man from
Speaker 3: back home, and we traded up and drafted Sean Evans.
Speaker 1: I'm sitting there like, fuck, man, know what time it is? No,
Speaker 1: you know, you definitely know. But he was hurt the
Speaker 1: entire train. He still just starts like that's just how
Speaker 1: it fucks. And it's kind of sad. It's like that.
Speaker 5: And I tell people that all the time, Like if
Speaker 5: you get drafted, you more likely gonna play. I don't
Speaker 5: care how if you're not even good and they see
Speaker 5: you not even getting good, they said, we gotta throw
Speaker 5: him out there. We gotta showface. You gotta see if
Speaker 5: he can be good. He may not look good, but
Speaker 5: he may be an athlete when he.
Speaker 3: Really need the GM or the owner to be like, hey,
Speaker 3: we kind of fucked that up because we're play him
Speaker 3: because you guys made the investment. But you guys are
Speaker 3: gonna have to know like he ain't it, He ain't it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it does suck that way, like the draft picks get
Speaker 3: more lives and like you get minimal and when you're
Speaker 3: sitting there and then that happens, like fuck, you already
Speaker 3: know what time it is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because that's why unless you.
Speaker 3: Signed a monster deal and you're just fucking man coming
Speaker 3: off a Pro Bowl, I mean yeah, if you sign
Speaker 3: a monster deal and they know you the bad, you're
Speaker 3: gonna be good.
Speaker 5: You just be hurt, but we'll you get to yourself.
Speaker 5: Don't worry. We know what you can do, because that's
Speaker 5: all what it comes down to. We know what you
Speaker 5: can do, right, you know what you can do. That's
Speaker 5: why man Rabel was cool because very wele like you.
Speaker 5: I played you every year when I was Houston. You
Speaker 5: destroyed us, you blocked us. I know what you can
Speaker 5: do get healthy. And that's just how me and him
Speaker 5: kind of kept it. But I respected him so much.
Speaker 5: I even went out to practice when they was like
Speaker 5: this your day off, I'll be like, no, let me
Speaker 5: show face for the team so they don't think that
Speaker 5: I'm just not doing anything because I didn't do a lot,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: When what a life to lift?
Speaker 3: Man? Bro? He really you weren't somebody like you know,
Speaker 3: you weren't somebody who looked at like fucking Delanea gets
Speaker 3: all this bullshit because you.
Speaker 5: Know I practiced hard though I would. I'm the crackback
Speaker 5: kind of guy. I'm gonna running crack back on you.
Speaker 5: I'm gonna score touching now, I'm gonna get in your
Speaker 5: face like I took this. I took practices like playing
Speaker 5: it as a game, because then if I play it
Speaker 5: as a game, when I'm in the game, it seemed
Speaker 5: like practice. You get what I'm saying that it wouldn't
Speaker 5: be hard. That's trustful. That's why always wore my game pans,
Speaker 5: always did that because.
Speaker 2: I want to kind of make that happen because that
Speaker 2: really wasn't a thing in Tennessee. And then you start
Speaker 2: wearing the game pants up and look, Key starts seeing
Speaker 2: more specialists are more like DB's are doing that. Now,
Speaker 2: more receivers are doing that.
Speaker 4: Everybody doing it.
Speaker 1: Everyone does that. It's just better for you.
Speaker 5: Just your pants don't feel as tight, so when you
Speaker 5: get to the game, they kind of already like I've
Speaker 5: been doing this all week, so then I don't have
Speaker 5: to stretch them out.
Speaker 4: I'm normal, It's normal to me. I'm used to it.
Speaker 5: I just had ways of just going about just trying
Speaker 5: to perfect my game, so it just made it easier
Speaker 5: on Sunday, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: The fucking man, dude. No, I wasn't the man, you know,
Speaker 1: I was just you're the man. You were the man.
Speaker 1: I was just helping me next you know that you
Speaker 1: were the man. No, I Marcus didn't have anybody at thirty.
Speaker 4: But yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: That's how I just imagine, like if we had AJ
Speaker 5: and we had the Derek Harry we have now, when
Speaker 5: I was playing, like geesh, like you know what I mean,
Speaker 5: Damn I always think about.
Speaker 1: You had the Marker who was a stud, but the
Speaker 1: Marca was a stud.
Speaker 4: The Marker was a stub, but you get you.
Speaker 5: We had Derek Harry into Marko at that time, and
Speaker 5: I feel like our offense was based around DeMarco, so
Speaker 5: our plays didn't fit Derek right. But I thought Derek
Speaker 5: every time he got in, he'll bust for like twenty thirty. Yes,
Speaker 5: Derek could probably tell y'all if y'all ask him this.
Speaker 5: I he used to be like, if we put Derek in,
Speaker 5: we're gonna win. We let Derek spand we're gonna win.
Speaker 5: I always used to say that to him, like, because
Speaker 5: DeMarco was great, don't get me wrong.
Speaker 1: But I knew what Derek Harry is. Derek, he'd be like, okay,
Speaker 1: hurt every week. Yeah, when Demark went, DeMarco had the
Speaker 1: plan I had after him.
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. DeMarco never practiced.
Speaker 1: He didn't do nothing.
Speaker 5: You know, he just come out playing the game, always
Speaker 5: had chewing his mouth at practice, with his hat on,
Speaker 5: standing outside while looking at the plays.
Speaker 4: Didn't do nothing.
Speaker 1: So I knew DeMarco was getting to that time, because
Speaker 1: then you got to think about it.
Speaker 4: Where in Dallas he had well almost three hundred carries
Speaker 4: when he was in Dallas.
Speaker 1: Ye, he ran him.
Speaker 2: They went to Philly for one year and it didn't
Speaker 2: really work out. They traded him to us.
Speaker 1: And he was but I remember Derek being like, really
Speaker 1: I didn't know him the way I know him now,
Speaker 1: but you could tell like he was.
Speaker 2: Super discouraged his rookie year. Yeah, Derek, because he went
Speaker 2: from Heisman like the man in the.
Speaker 5: Dry I was at the draft room with him. He
Speaker 5: was just falling. I'm like, we're gonna get him. I
Speaker 5: literally said that. I said we're gonna get him, you know.
Speaker 5: I said, we're gonna get Derek. I guarantee him when
Speaker 5: that when it came across.
Speaker 1: And I told y'all I was in the back, Like
Speaker 1: I told y'all were getting Derek. Were about to be unstoppable,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, when you get Dereck Henry, it was
Speaker 1: like you didn't And he was so big even then,
Speaker 1: so big.
Speaker 4: When I saw him in the green room, I was like, yo,
Speaker 4: that that ain't Derek Harry.
Speaker 1: That's a d end. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I'm like, that's the DR's what you look at and
Speaker 3: you're like that's a fucking pro ass football player.
Speaker 1: That's what.
Speaker 2: When you were a kid and you watched, you think
Speaker 2: all of them looked like Derek, You're like, oh not,
Speaker 2: everybody's really not like that.
Speaker 1: In the bag, like like Dreel Casey, You're like, you
Speaker 1: say the lead. Yeah, I'm a fan. But man, he

Speaker 5: too I'm too out of it now. I don't even

Speaker 3: Now, Like you're like, fuck, man, yeah, I'll be at
Speaker 3: the games like one, can I do this anymore?
Speaker 5: Like I know if I get hit, I think I'll

Speaker 1: How like your brain low Ki gets callous to the hits.
Speaker 1: Like the first week of camp, you're like, I got

Speaker 1: Ship. You enjoy it, you enjoy the afterlife.
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean I work for the I kind of work.
Speaker 5: I don't work for the NFL, but I kind of do.
Speaker 5: I work for the Legends community. So I mean it's
Speaker 5: I get paid to pretty much be around football players
Speaker 5: all day and talk to football players.
Speaker 4: So it's life kind of easy.
Speaker 1: Nic, That's cool, That's awesome, you know because a lot
Speaker 1: of guys struggle.
Speaker 3: No, they do it the way you were going the
Speaker 3: way you were unfortunately had to go out through injuries
Speaker 3: and stuff like that. As I'm just asking how it's been. Yeah,
Speaker 3: because some dudes like you know, you know how it is. No,
Speaker 3: I know that kind of life. I got to figure
Speaker 3: this out for real.
Speaker 4: Yeah hell yeah.
Speaker 5: But I you know, luckily, I'm old. So thirty eight, man,
Speaker 5: I kind of came out at a good time. I
Speaker 5: think that's that was long enough, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5: Of course I wanted to play. I ain't get a
Speaker 5: Super Bowl ring. That hurts, you know, That's what we
Speaker 5: played this game for but I feel like I made
Speaker 5: great friends, got to experience a great, great life just
Speaker 5: playing in San Francisco, in in Tennessee.
Speaker 4: So I think I'm fine with all that. I know,
Speaker 4: I'm fine with it, y'all good.
Speaker 2: You know, it's toughy when you see people leave and
Speaker 2: you can just tell them kind of scrambling like what's
Speaker 2: my life going to be like now?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Yeah, because like you know, you when you hurt like
Speaker 5: that like me and you are, and you got to
Speaker 5: spend the whole time away from football kind of and
Speaker 5: you almost be like, damn, like this is what life's like. Yeah,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, because then you got to
Speaker 5: start doing other stuff like I was doing so much.
Speaker 5: When it was almost time to come back, I was like, damn, dude,
Speaker 5: it almost hit me like do I really want to play?
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying. Then I was like, nah,
Speaker 5: I'm gonna play. I mean, because I always in my
Speaker 5: mind always be like, damn, do I want to play this?
Speaker 5: This is my twelfth surgery. Then I think about it
Speaker 5: all the time.
Speaker 4: Then I come in. I'll tell Taylor. He'd be like
Speaker 4: you you you back.
Speaker 1: I'll be like last year brah last year, five years
Speaker 1: in a row, last year a row.
Speaker 5: You're like, I heard that last year. I'm like, no,
Speaker 5: this is the last year. So I always joked about it.
Speaker 5: But sometimes when you joke about it, you need to
Speaker 5: make that come true. And I think that's what I
Speaker 5: was doing. Like I knew it was gonna come true
Speaker 5: at some time, so I just kept joking about it
Speaker 5: till it was real.
Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: For us? At one point it does Tom Brady, Yeah.
Speaker 4: I mean Tom a quarterback.
Speaker 5: If we was able to play quarterback, would I still
Speaker 5: be able to play with this leg?
Speaker 1: Of course, you're not gonna get his hit as much as.
Speaker 5: As a tight end would, or you ain't got to
Speaker 5: kick back as much and try to block the dude
Speaker 5: running at you full speed at weigh as much as
Speaker 5: you was leaning on you and doing stuff like that
Speaker 5: them Is that that helps the injuries occur? You know
Speaker 5: what I mean, When you're the quarterback, I'm sitting back there.
Speaker 1: Like, especially when the rules are now too all them
Speaker 1: rough pass across that one yesterday in Miami was wild, bro.
Speaker 4: That was a regular tackle.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he put his arms down everything too, Like I
Speaker 1: know I can put my full body way, let's.
Speaker 3: Kiel yourself going down through the middle. And you're like, fuck,
Speaker 3: let me put his arms down and stuff. I mean,
Speaker 3: as a defensive player, how do you want me to
Speaker 3: think about that? When I'm trying to beat this dude
Speaker 3: and I see him about to throw the ball and
Speaker 3: I'm just coming at him to try to stop him
Speaker 3: from throwing the middle, Like, come on, man, it is
Speaker 3: ridiculous because I hold every play, so you know, and
Speaker 3: I think about not holding, but I do it.
Speaker 1: Imagine dude like in the sixties playing us, Like.
Speaker 5: Who, I can't block you just by putting my hands
Speaker 5: on you. No, I can only block you by holding you.
Speaker 5: And I see when I train a little topic like, bro,
Speaker 5: I hold every play. You're not holding, you ain't winning.
Speaker 5: I promise you that d Lineman gonna toss you.
Speaker 1: You know what, got to get in there. He can.
Speaker 5: He can grab you and throw you whatever, and that's
Speaker 5: not a holding. But if I grab him and hold him,
Speaker 5: I'm holding. But he can grab me on the side
Speaker 5: of my path and fling me to the side to
Speaker 5: make the play, But that's not holding. So what's the
Speaker 5: difference of me grabbing you and pulling you closer to
Speaker 5: me and so they can't see it, right. Yeah, so
Speaker 5: that's what I tell cats. I'm gonna cheat every play.
Speaker 1: And uh no, that's real when you reflect back on
Speaker 1: your career and you look at just the test the Titans,
Speaker 1: and he said this that you're not the best tight
Speaker 1: end in Titans history.
Speaker 2: Why what is the argument for you to be the
Speaker 2: best to Titan? He's not, he said, he's not. He said,
Speaker 2: Frank Whitechack still got him. I don't know you put I.
Speaker 5: Think they I think they got me listen higher than Frank,
Speaker 5: but he got me beat on some stuff though.
Speaker 1: You said, when you're doing your retirement speech.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I say, because we we were two different
Speaker 5: type of players. Though when Frank played the game, he
Speaker 5: was just like an extended lineman. You can catch the
Speaker 5: ball and do all of that stuff. But the only
Speaker 5: reason why, only reason why, I said, Frank, because what
Speaker 5: Frank did and the Music City Bowl, and yeah, I
Speaker 5: mean the legacy that he carries.
Speaker 1: The City miracle music and yeah was it the music
Speaker 1: the Music City Miracle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they really hang on to that still, no, I know,
Speaker 3: And and what he did in that and just the
Speaker 3: legacy has in Tennessee.
Speaker 1: I just don't compare as the same type of player.
Speaker 3: You know what I mean. I feel like you were
Speaker 3: in Tennessee with the down years, did you feel like
Speaker 3: the notoriety was a high?
Speaker 5: No, you know, because if you were do it like, Hey,
Speaker 5: that dude had Mason, he had Eddie, Joe, he had everybody.
Speaker 5: So he had studs on his team and we did.
Speaker 5: But didn't, you know what I mean. So I just
Speaker 5: don't compare. I don't know, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: If you feel like you would have got more pro
Speaker 3: bows or made a couple of runs of the Super Bowl,
Speaker 3: like maybe that justify justify.
Speaker 1: So you're like the best player in like the worst
Speaker 1: team that you know, the Uh.
Speaker 2: But when you're talking about how if you're if you're
Speaker 2: killing it and you're in a small, medium market, how
Speaker 2: are you not getting as much individual accolades. That's like
Speaker 2: the same situation we're talking about right now. Like at
Speaker 2: the end of your career, if you look at the
Speaker 2: numbers and it's like you probably were the best tight end.
Speaker 1: Yeah, more tds in two less seasons? Oh really need
Speaker 1: more tds and two less seasons. Yards five thousand, four
Speaker 1: hun five dozen for white check. He got more than
Speaker 1: me Tony oh fifty six and.
Speaker 2: He had forty four as this watcheck he's got fifty
Speaker 2: eight hundred blaians.
Speaker 3: Oh he had a go todinn again, they're what four
Speaker 3: hundred yards off? Yeah, I mean you guys seem pretty similar.
Speaker 3: You got thirty two yards a game, he's got thirty three.
Speaker 3: And you say he's got more touchdowns with.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he got more touchdowns.
Speaker 2: Hes got more touchdowns than Atlante the Titans than with
Speaker 2: seven seasons.
Speaker 1: Okay, I thought that was flipped had more. Oh, I
Speaker 1: have more receptions averaging eleven teams. They actually they actually
Speaker 1: tie twenty eight.
Speaker 6: I was I was adding San Francisco. Oh okay, we'll
Speaker 6: both had twenty eight touchdowns with Tennessee.
Speaker 1: But Franks was in nine years and it is close.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's close to a real good that's not and
Speaker 5: it's just it's just a different, different look. They went
Speaker 5: to the super Bowl, lost in the super Bowl, you know, Yeah,
Speaker 5: that's crazy so that I look at stuff like that,
Speaker 5: and if we would have went to the super Bowl,
Speaker 5: played in Super Bowl, won a super Bowl, I mean,
Speaker 5: then you could compare them things I didn't even get
Speaker 5: to play in the in the in the AFC Championship
Speaker 5: game with you guys like.
Speaker 1: You have been nice, be nice to have them, nice
Speaker 1: to have them. It's also you look at the other
Speaker 1: way too, like you even realize you're you're on IR.
Speaker 1: That stuff sucks.
Speaker 2: That's why I'm like, yeah, the one the only positive
Speaker 2: about being on IR is like you're Wednesdays and Thursdays
Speaker 2: when you're like, I'm kind of just hanging out and
Speaker 2: the boys are grinding right now. But then whenever Sundays
Speaker 2: or the game comes along, there is definitely a deep pit.
Speaker 2: I'm like, damn, I wish I was just out there
Speaker 2: at the especially when you see like your position not
Speaker 2: having as good of a day as and then you
Speaker 2: play the game in your head like I would have
Speaker 2: been doing this, but really you never.
Speaker 1: Really know, like.
Speaker 3: Both too though, like okay, maybe not maybe not for
Speaker 3: both of y'all, but speaking from my shoes, if I'm
Speaker 3: injured and the dude behind me is playing bad, yeah
Speaker 3: you play the game like I wish I was out
Speaker 3: there helping the team. But if they're playing good, like
Speaker 3: fuck yeah, you want them to be playing I Mean,
Speaker 3: I just sounds selfish, but that's the nature of the
Speaker 3: fucking game.
Speaker 1: You know what, It's the nature of the game. You're human.
Speaker 1: That's why.
Speaker 4: Because you're human.
Speaker 1: What around were you were?
Speaker 3: You you were drifted low right, It's around like cutting
Speaker 3: our teeth into the league or getting our getting cutting
Speaker 3: ourselves a role in the league.
Speaker 1: Like when Rashaun got drafted in the first round. You
Speaker 1: kind of know what time it is.
Speaker 3: And for me to like get an opportunity to play
Speaker 3: again or to like show that I got filmed, I
Speaker 3: need somebody to get hurt.
Speaker 1: Not that I want them to get hurt.
Speaker 3: You just need an opportunity to present itself because I'm
Speaker 3: not gonna get fast tracked like somebody who has a
Speaker 3: pedigree that's like, oh, or they get paid a lot.
Speaker 1: Like that's just how that that is.
Speaker 3: And once I did get to start in Washington and
Speaker 3: for those couple of years that you're referring to, it's
Speaker 3: like when I would get hurt, You're like, it's one
Speaker 3: of those things you don't want to be out long
Speaker 3: because you it's not like the guy behind me or
Speaker 3: next to me doesn't look athletically same or better than me.
Speaker 1: I just like know the game, so I already.
Speaker 3: Just I just need to know that I cannot he
Speaker 3: can't display something good, because then the question's gonna be
Speaker 3: able to do we even need a play cop again, Yeah,
Speaker 3: because I don't have the backgrounds you're going to back. No,
Speaker 3: that's kind of spot when he comes back, even if
Speaker 3: the do behind him is playing better, that's just not
Speaker 3: that's not my reality in the NFL.
Speaker 1: So I don't know about it. But to make it end,
Speaker 1: they put that it. They do that.
Speaker 5: They for you though, they say, look, we're gonna draft
Speaker 5: this cat to challenge you, even though did he not
Speaker 5: in the higher draft pick, Like say you win first round,
Speaker 5: this dude went fourth. But if you get hurt and
Speaker 5: this fourth round and start balling out, I get what
Speaker 5: we'll say, Taylor making how much?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all happened much Do we need Taylor do this?
Speaker 5: And and my mom sat. I was kind of on
Speaker 5: that too, Like when I got hurt, I'm like, damn,
Speaker 5: I want my dudes to do well. But if they,
Speaker 5: like you said, if they do too well, it's like,
Speaker 5: do we need this dude anymore? And that's what happened.
Speaker 5: If I'm the dude to do balling, No, it has
Speaker 5: nothing to do.
Speaker 1: It's what the owners think in the ga it's and
Speaker 1: that's going ship.
Speaker 5: And then when John got start going and they knew
Speaker 5: they can, they found a way to get John to
Speaker 5: the ball, like, Okay, we can't throw it to them deep,
Speaker 5: but if we give him a handoff or a screen
Speaker 5: or like a quick pass, the man is explosive. He
Speaker 5: can house it. They start seeing that like, well, Delanney's
Speaker 5: eight million. After this year, johna is under a million,
Speaker 5: who do keep? Let's release s Delaney and see what
Speaker 5: Johnno can do. And then he did it again and
Speaker 5: next year when after I was gone, So it was
Speaker 5: just like it's.
Speaker 1: But you're gonna like you're dabbing out. You're like John,
Speaker 1: who's your boy?
Speaker 4: That's my dog.
Speaker 5: So I was even I'm happy for him when he
Speaker 5: getting off. I would tell them all the time, you
Speaker 5: you here to replace me at the end of the day,
Speaker 5: when I'd be like, draft the fucking tight end. Yeah,
Speaker 5: they're gonna draft the tight end.
Speaker 1: And when I fall off that tight end that they drafted,
Speaker 1: it's going to replace me. That's part of the game.
Speaker 1: And I know that, and it's not that I'll be
Speaker 1: I'm not salty of the player.
Speaker 5: I'm salty of the GM and them because they don't
Speaker 5: really have loyalty to us.
Speaker 1: They don't they don't care really at the end of
Speaker 1: the day. Like, but is there a reason to be
Speaker 1: salty when you already know that's the situation.
Speaker 5: But still, after all all the work we built, all
Speaker 5: the stuff I did for the team, everything I put
Speaker 5: into the team, and and to do it just to
Speaker 5: release that player, not even let them play out their contracts.
Speaker 4: That's crazy to me, you know what I'm saying, Like.
Speaker 3: It's a saltiness until you understand that that's the nature
Speaker 3: of the business. Right, Like you to say you've been
Speaker 3: in fourteen years. Yeah, when when you're older and you've
Speaker 3: you've got several years under your belt stuff like that,
Speaker 3: you kind of just see it for what it is
Speaker 3: because you understand that that's a game. But when you're
Speaker 3: when you're trying to fucking cut your cut your teeth
Speaker 3: in the league and like trying to carve out a
Speaker 3: role like playing balls all you want to do, like
Speaker 3: you want your situation will work out.
Speaker 1: That's just the way it is. And again, it's not like.
Speaker 3: You feel it's not like you're upset that the player
Speaker 3: out there is well, like it's like for showing playing
Speaker 3: tell me that questions like you're trying to help out
Speaker 3: as much as possible. But I'm sitting there knowing if
Speaker 3: I'm going to get a situation or extend my career,
Speaker 3: I'm going to need somebody to play bad enough for
Speaker 3: me to go out there or get injured.
Speaker 1: And that's just like the nature of being in that
Speaker 1: kind of spot. We'll see.
Speaker 5: I was the guy cass was like, I need to
Speaker 5: land to get hurt so I can get in obviously,
Speaker 5: because I was just starting, dude. When you just starting, dude,
Speaker 5: most of the time to do it in the back,
Speaker 5: like the only way I'm gonna get in if that
Speaker 5: dude get hurt. They not saying they want you back,
Speaker 5: just like.
Speaker 3: Okay, maybe he's dumb and doesn't know the playbook well
Speaker 3: to where it's like he'll be a liability out there
Speaker 3: and then eventually in in the middle of the game
Speaker 3: or about hey, go in there and go and you
Speaker 3: gotta be fucking ready to play.
Speaker 5: You gotta be ready to play. And that's the thing
Speaker 5: about being in the league now, you better be ready
Speaker 5: to play. It's the next man up and that's what
Speaker 5: our model in Tennessee is the next man up.
Speaker 1: They really about that. That that is for sure. Yeah
Speaker 1: I never had that.
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously our situations were different in the beginning,
Speaker 2: but like whenever I was hurt or anything, I never
Speaker 2: thought now granted, no one when I got hurt, no
Speaker 2: one ever played where I was like nervous. No one
Speaker 2: ever played for the level where I was like, oh damn,
Speaker 2: they might not want to keep me. That as like
Speaker 2: my time with the Titans coming to an end. You
Speaker 2: look at who's playing right now and you're like, hey,
Speaker 2: I hope I need you to ball because.
Speaker 1: I don't want to.
Speaker 2: I don't want to leave after Brandon Hopkins, Mike Ruiz
Speaker 2: and myself, and there's been like a lineage of good tackles.
Speaker 2: I don't want that to be a drop off after.
Speaker 2: Like you're kind of rooting for the team now because
Speaker 2: I've only been with one team the whole time.
Speaker 3: Like, if you're sitting there looking at I want to
Speaker 3: get another contract with this team, you kind of needed
Speaker 3: to in a spot to where hey, we want Taylor
Speaker 3: to come back on Tennessee because this spot's not this
Speaker 3: spot's not cut this this spot's not like doing well
Speaker 3: enough like you kind of you want. You want to
Speaker 3: be wanted, you want to be missed.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: If you're hoping they do well, you're on the back
Speaker 3: part of your contract. So it's like, Okay, we'll go
Speaker 3: ahead and shave this catch, yeah, because we'll.
Speaker 1: Get somebody cheaper.
Speaker 5: But see, that's what it's his scenario different because if
Speaker 5: you look at what he got hurt, just like I did,
Speaker 5: no injuries, or but seeing my said John new play
Speaker 5: well and first, or they had two tight ends that
Speaker 5: were there doing their thing.
Speaker 4: They like, long, we can keep these two.
Speaker 1: Fergus drafted Harvard kids said oh ship, we.
Speaker 3: Got mak it.
Speaker 1: But he would get minimum. Yeah, it's the middle.
Speaker 5: See now you look at Tennis Sis when he hurt.
Speaker 5: They they passing the left tackle around like a baton.
Speaker 3: Hey, bow honey, who turn, Yeah foe honey yo turn
Speaker 3: do this bow honey yo turn?
Speaker 1: Going on Boydanni's all wrong now, right, He'm not saying
Speaker 1: I'm not saying he bro I'm not saying he not.
Speaker 1: He not good.
Speaker 5: He's just he ain't playing his best football right now.
Speaker 5: And that and at the end of the day that
Speaker 5: it shows you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: If you're Dennis, you have to see this moment as like,
Speaker 3: this is my opportunity to carve out a true role
Speaker 3: to even look forward to next year, like trying to
Speaker 3: dethrown the kick and be like, hey, let's cut out
Speaker 3: this money and save that on cut dialler because we
Speaker 3: got somebody who's established. Like that's like, I'm just talking.
Speaker 3: I love how we're just talking the mental the mindsets
Speaker 3: of each different spot because we've all been in like
Speaker 3: situations where it's either I R or something where you're like, man,
Speaker 3: what are you sitting there watching the game? You're like,
Speaker 3: am I about to get place? If you're all the
Speaker 3: way wrapped up in the end the playing football.
Speaker 1: I knew it. I was telling people. They was like, man,
Speaker 1: what about next?
Speaker 4: I said, Bro, I'm getting released.
Speaker 1: They like, now you know?
Speaker 4: I said, you ain't seeing John nu what John who
Speaker 4: been doing?
Speaker 1: At first? Bro? They why would they pay me eight million?
Speaker 5: They don't even pay them, both of them that combined,
Speaker 5: all three of them combined, and like half not even
Speaker 5: half that.
Speaker 1: So I am out of there.
Speaker 5: When I was doing treatment in John Car, I was
Speaker 5: already knew I'm like, what up, John? He like, hate
Speaker 5: to do this, Delanne. I'm like, man, I know what
Speaker 5: time it is.
Speaker 1: John.
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, like, yeah, you hell a player.
Speaker 5: Da da da d hate to do this, so we
Speaker 5: don't want you to take a pay cut. We just
Speaker 5: can't even tell you to take a pay cut after
Speaker 5: what you did. We just want to give you the
Speaker 5: opportunity to go find another team. But at this point,
Speaker 5: I'm still hurt, so yeah, cut me on while I
Speaker 5: was hurt, so you know, they had to settle me
Speaker 5: out and do all of that crazy stuff.
Speaker 4: But I knew it was probably done for me.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean when I when I got this a cl
Speaker 2: I went to John's office, like before I went to
Speaker 2: California to get my surgery. I was like, hey, man,
Speaker 2: I know what's going to happen after this year, and
Speaker 2: I just wanted to tell you thank you for everything,
Speaker 2: thank you for believing to me, blah blah, legit like
Speaker 2: and you know he hit me with, well you never know.
Speaker 2: I was like, listen, we don't got to do this.
Speaker 2: Like just I'm just letting you know. I know what's
Speaker 2: about to happen, and I love you and appreciate you,
Speaker 2: and we kind of like we tell you.
Speaker 1: I feel like that's the case because you were talking
Speaker 1: about on kid. This is actually great fucking transition.
Speaker 2: Pladies, gentlemen, we interrupt this episode to bring you Duke Cannon.
Speaker 2: It can be hard to find a good, lasting, last
Speaker 2: minute holiday gift for the boys, but don't panic. Duke

Speaker 2: bigger than the average bar of soap and it is
Speaker 2: made with active charcoal and the masculine scent of a
Speaker 2: what's that word, bergamont and black pepper. Listen, I don't
Speaker 2: know what bergamon is, but I have smelt this and
Speaker 2: it smells fantastic.
Speaker 1: If you want to give someone a.
Speaker 2: Gift that if they want to give someone a gift
Speaker 2: they won't hate and immediately return after Christmas. Do the
Speaker 2: boys a favor and buy Duke Cannon at your local

Speaker 2: brick of soap. I put it in the little pouch,
Speaker 2: I squeeze it up and I but all over my body?
Speaker 2: Did I walk out of that thing? And I feel
Speaker 2: like a million domestic It is incredible. If you want

Speaker 3: And back to this episode you're talking about on k
Speaker 3: Adams last week, I saw you go back and forth
Speaker 3: with Buck Rising or Paul Carson one of them about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Buck Buck was Buck was on one of four
Speaker 2: five in the good Fight for your boy out there.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So I feel comfortable to ask about it, like do
Speaker 3: you still do you actually feel like that's the reality
Speaker 3: of the situation?
Speaker 2: I get cut, Yeah, h yes, I do. I think
Speaker 2: you only fourteen million dollars next year. I've been I've
Speaker 2: had two acls and three years now. The way the
Speaker 2: ACLS work and all that stuff in the back end
Speaker 2: that like you and I have talked about that that
Speaker 2: whole story will come out eventually that but obviously not
Speaker 2: right now. But when you look at somebody and you're like, oh,
Speaker 2: they've had two injuries in three years, Like it's pretty
Speaker 2: cut and dry, it would be wildly egotistical for me
Speaker 2: to stid and be like, all the Titans mean me
Speaker 2: next year, they could go draft somebody, they could trade
Speaker 2: for somebody.
Speaker 1: Doesn't need Like, that's that's.
Speaker 2: Always a hard Now, if I was gonna if I
Speaker 2: was gonna give an argument for myself, left tackles one
Speaker 2: of the hardest positions to say, hey, we need a guy.
Speaker 1: You're just gonna go out there. There's five or six
Speaker 1: in the league that you do it on a consistent.
Speaker 3: Base, everybody calling for your everybody that would that would
Speaker 3: call for your head. At certain points, it's like you
Speaker 3: can realize you can't just go find the Taylor Lawan
Speaker 3: out there that can.
Speaker 1: Come on.
Speaker 5: You can't just you can't just trade. It ain't an
Speaker 5: easy trade to trade for.
Speaker 1: No way Ola got released. What isn't that there?
Speaker 4: This is real.
Speaker 1: It's like he's been bowling, No do we know? Why
Speaker 1: do nothing? He's been hurt, he wasn't. He's on short
Speaker 1: term my r for a little bit. See the captain too,
Speaker 1: he was, Yeah, it was a look, that's just this
Speaker 1: is what a perfect example. Yeah in front of you,
Speaker 1: this is scary old. Look he's quick too. Yeah, he
Speaker 1: broke my finger. He's the one that broke this one.
Speaker 1: Somebody you know on teams you ain't want to have
Speaker 1: to block.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he is a he was a workhers. I watch him.
Speaker 1: I follow him. That's why boy home man, just buddy.
Speaker 5: But you don't think though, because you told that to John. Right,
Speaker 5: So John, only one knows that you came up there
Speaker 5: and actually did that. I'm sure no one else knows
Speaker 5: that you said you came up there and said.
Speaker 4: That that you know, this may be it.
Speaker 1: I said, oh, I said, saying in the rabels. I
Speaker 1: know you got like, no, it wasn't that. This may
Speaker 1: be it for me. On the Adams podcast, Adam, you
Speaker 1: know I saw that when you did that. I was
Speaker 1: kind of like, whoa Taylor you you threw it out there.
Speaker 1: But you know it's not like for me, it's not
Speaker 1: about like retiring. But the whole come, yeah, the whole
Speaker 1: thing was is like I have a.
Speaker 2: Really hard time when I see football players, being like, man,
Speaker 2: the coach is fucking me.
Speaker 1: Man.
Speaker 2: If I could just get out there, I would ball on. Oh,
Speaker 2: I can't believe they're releasing me. It's like I remember
Speaker 2: watching these dudes and being like, I will never be
Speaker 2: a person that lives in the in the fantasy world
Speaker 2: that much to an extent as football players, we all
Speaker 2: live in a fantasy world, of course, but when I'm
Speaker 2: looking at this situation, it's like almost like my own
Speaker 2: pride has to get in front of it, being like
Speaker 2: I know I'm going like, I know I'm gonna get cut.
Speaker 2: I know the writings on the wall for me with
Speaker 2: the Tennessee Titans this year, it's been in a phenomenal
Speaker 2: nine years.
Speaker 1: I absolutely love it.
Speaker 2: And we'll see what you're saying, like, yeah, the argument
Speaker 2: would be, like, you know, aside from being hurt to
Speaker 2: the last three years, like consistently, like you've boys been
Speaker 2: balling for a long time, and so like if they
Speaker 2: wanted to come and have a conversation, obviously I'm always
Speaker 2: up for a conversation.
Speaker 4: And they're going to have a conversation, but it's gonna.
Speaker 1: Be a oh yeah, okay, it's gonna be a pay
Speaker 1: cut issue about that.
Speaker 3: On upp and Adams too about uh the retirement? Do
Speaker 3: you think about the end and stuff like that. It's like,
Speaker 3: if nothing were to happen, would you be sued up again?
Speaker 3: For the Tennessee Titans, if.
Speaker 1: Nothing were to happen, nothing were to happen, they were
Speaker 1: like they didn't even say, hey we're gonna cut you.
Speaker 1: This said, hey, we're just oversation. Just report. You don't
Speaker 1: hear nothing.
Speaker 4: You just report to camp and.
Speaker 1: They ain't draft nobody.
Speaker 3: Because I feel like, if you don't hear nothing all
Speaker 3: the way upto the draft, you're kind of thinking.
Speaker 4: They gonna draft somebody, but for sure, but.
Speaker 1: They don't better draft somebody. You sit there, You sit
Speaker 1: there and play the game like yeah, you gonna drive something.
Speaker 1: Fuck yeah, gatuation.
Speaker 5: But say they don't draft nobody the draft, somebody they
Speaker 5: use like okay, Tey, they're gonna be a mentor.
Speaker 1: We're gonna use them for a minute to a third rounder. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we use them as a mentor. And you're not gonna
Speaker 1: pay somebody fourteen million dollars to be a mental well.
Speaker 3: Because they still you're still gonna play. That's gonna show
Speaker 3: that they're a development. They're gonna they're gonna develop, and
Speaker 3: you're gonna still be the.
Speaker 1: Guy the other year.
Speaker 4: That's what for another year to give them.
Speaker 3: It's next year, like your last year on your deal. Yeah, oh,
Speaker 3: next year, that's big day.
Speaker 1: Let's just say, what's that.
Speaker 4: That's a big payday for you.
Speaker 1: No, my whole contract was like really loaded. No, I
Speaker 1: was very frontloaded. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Technically, if you look at my contract, what I'm getting
Speaker 2: paid now, it'd be like bottom half starters right now.
Speaker 5: Well, and you got you took up to a twenty
Speaker 5: five percent pay cup because you went on I R.
Speaker 1: No, I I had no split my contract spell. I
Speaker 1: got the best agents. I have the best agents in
Speaker 1: the world. Shout out.
Speaker 5: I got that whole ten million because they didn't expect
Speaker 5: me to get hurt when I broke my ankle.
Speaker 1: I didn't play a game. Yeah, I gotta pee. I
Speaker 1: gotta keep on that story. So they I never really
Speaker 1: was asking you, I never really I never really got hurt.
Speaker 5: So they didn't even put a clause in my contract
Speaker 5: for that first one.
Speaker 1: But that second I R though, that check looked a
Speaker 1: lot different. You had to split what was that a split?
Speaker 1: Probably fifty percent. Yeah. The one time I went on
Speaker 1: I R.
Speaker 3: Fortunately, I was under a tender year, so all of
Speaker 3: it's guaranteed. So that was like like nice, it's usually
Speaker 3: you just get that ship split and they tendered you
Speaker 3: and washed it. Yeah, so I would so being undrafted,
Speaker 3: I was on PEACEQUL my whole first year. So I
Speaker 3: had to go like first or I had to go.
Speaker 3: I had to go exclusive rights free agent, so you
Speaker 3: either signed data line or you can't play for nobody
Speaker 3: else playing.
Speaker 1: For the minimum.
Speaker 3: It was like six hundred thousand, so I mean, obviously
Speaker 3: like lovely, but at the same time you're like you're like, damn,
Speaker 3: I'm a.
Speaker 1: Starter and I gotta.
Speaker 3: Exclusive rights free agent, thinking I could be a free agent.
Speaker 3: Then I was restricted and then unrestricted. So I was
Speaker 3: watching it for like five years.
Speaker 5: Touch free you even touched it. But when they seven
Speaker 5: when I first hit for agency, what was it tender
Speaker 5: for middle linebacker at that inside line?
Speaker 3: I got? Uh it was it was it was one point, yeah,
Speaker 3: which I was aired up. That's a that's basically that
Speaker 3: the Titans. He was equivalent to that. But that was
Speaker 3: like the highest I got in the year. What's because
Speaker 3: all the other stuff was for I always got the
Speaker 3: big performance pay by.
Speaker 4: Because you played every you played it.
Speaker 1: I just got the I just got the Titans one
Speaker 1: from a couple of years ago. It was like six figures.
Speaker 1: That was when you those are the ones you don't
Speaker 1: see coming out. I know, it was wild. I bet,
Speaker 1: I bet. I was like, oh damn, that's what.
Speaker 5: That's crazy though, like that they can do that to
Speaker 5: unrestricted free agency, it's a it's a it's.
Speaker 3: Tough getting unrestricted free agency because even if you're the man,
Speaker 3: you get franchise that you know, obviously you still get
Speaker 3: good money, but like you know, it's tough to like
Speaker 3: make it all the way to unrestricted free agency.
Speaker 4: What was the tax barket in Washington at that time?
Speaker 1: It was high.
Speaker 3: When I got here, I was like, oh, fuck, you're
Speaker 3: saving a ship a little more money, bro.
Speaker 1: I saw you saw fifty I think it was fifty
Speaker 1: two percent of your check in d C. Here you're
Speaker 1: seeing like, yeah, I know, I was.
Speaker 3: If you get bonuses, if you get signing bonuses that
Speaker 3: don't go through like you're seeing like, I know, but
Speaker 3: you better at.
Speaker 1: Tennessee, they don't take all the out though. Tennessee, they
Speaker 1: didn't take. They don't take all the tame.
Speaker 5: You gotta tell them to take all the taxes out
Speaker 5: to no, not, you're gonna have to pay a shipload
Speaker 5: of money.
Speaker 2: You think you got way more than way more money
Speaker 2: than you do. You're like, damn, I got this.
Speaker 1: Actually damn me. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah. The only lovely part being like on the lower
Speaker 3: is just you got bigger the performance bonuses.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I know that on the list. That makes you
Speaker 1: feel a little bit better about your name.
Speaker 5: But that just showed that y'all becoming Most of them
Speaker 5: guys that's on that list are always key players in
Speaker 5: the league down the road though, because they played early.
Speaker 5: They didn't get drafted, but they played early and they
Speaker 5: know the game, so they go to another team.
Speaker 4: They usually get a payday and they become somebody.
Speaker 1: So Tennessee Titans next year. All remains the same.
Speaker 2: If everything was the same, they didn't say nothing like
Speaker 2: the whole draft thing and all that perfect case scenario.
Speaker 2: Here is what I would answer that question. If the surgeon,
Speaker 2: if this rehab goes better than the last three we
Speaker 2: have went, and I truly, in my heart of hearts,
Speaker 2: feel like I would be the same dude or I
Speaker 2: would be close to the same person I have been
Speaker 2: in my career, then I would absolutely go back and
Speaker 2: play for the Titans. But if I don't think I
Speaker 2: can be him, then what do.
Speaker 1: You think you could be him? And they sit you
Speaker 1: down and talk about a.
Speaker 2: Hut they cut, Well, I'd have to value how much
Speaker 2: is that pay Turt?
Speaker 1: How much is everything?
Speaker 2: Because there is there is a level of when you
Speaker 2: play this game long enough and you make the paychecks
Speaker 2: I've been able to make, like the balances of what's
Speaker 2: worth it and what's not for your health does play
Speaker 2: a lot into especially having a five year old and
Speaker 2: a mater ye old now.
Speaker 1: And it's yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously, if I can be the same player
Speaker 2: or close to the same player I have been in
Speaker 2: the past, then yes, I would go back and play
Speaker 2: for the Titans. But if I really don't think, if
Speaker 2: I think, hey, like this is not necessarily like I'm
Speaker 2: not going to be who I thought I could be.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to watch the demise of myself. I
Speaker 2: said on a case podcast, I'm not gonna watch the
Speaker 2: demise of Taylor Lawan. I'm not gonna be a dude.
Speaker 2: That's like he's hanging on. He's here, he is again,
Speaker 2: He's doing it again. You know what happened to Taylor?
Speaker 2: He was great, but then this happened and that happened,
Speaker 2: and he's he's still in the league. Damn me, he's
Speaker 2: still in the league. Now, I just want to be
Speaker 2: the dude that's like remembered as a guy, you know.
Speaker 2: So I just think, like with you with your career,
Speaker 2: like you will always be looked as Delaney Walker, someone
Speaker 2: who helped change the franchise of the Titians.
Speaker 4: Because I never went nowhere else and played and had
Speaker 4: it now fall.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, it was just like, hey, like the abrupt
Speaker 2: end came for you. And if this is that situation
Speaker 2: to be a similar thing, I'd be looked at as
Speaker 2: a guy who is argably the best tackle in Titan's history.
Speaker 2: I would be a guy that helped change the culture
Speaker 2: of an entire team. And that is something that from
Speaker 2: a legacy standpoint, I am incredibly proud of, incredibly proud of.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: And that's a good way to go because if you
Speaker 2: go and go somewhere else for less than you keep
Speaker 2: getting hurt, you keep puttering along, then all of a
Speaker 2: sudden You're like, like Jason Peters, who's on Dallas Cowboys
Speaker 2: practice squad at forty years old.
Speaker 1: It's like, what's going on with Jason Peters? You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying? And I got mad love and respect
Speaker 1: much respect for him.
Speaker 5: I saw him yes on the Dallas I thought he
Speaker 5: was done too, like and then I saw he was
Speaker 5: going to Dallas.
Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, first bout Hall of Famer.
Speaker 3: But I think he went to the peace squad because uh,
Speaker 3: Tyron Smith got injured right, Yeah, he got a hamstrand
Speaker 3: Hampshire right away, but he didn't do that to Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 2: Mayfeel Yeah, when they off waivers, that's a different situation.
Speaker 2: Here's a free agent for a long time. I still
Speaker 2: don't think he's a forty year old man and put
Speaker 2: him on practice squad unless something's up.
Speaker 3: But that that's that's that's that's that's why the rules
Speaker 3: are like now right, the way that they can manipulate
Speaker 3: the roster. It's like put him on practice squad from
Speaker 3: David Johnson was just on practice squad not too long
Speaker 3: and got.
Speaker 1: Doing with everybody. They put everyone on practice for a
Speaker 1: week or two weeks, and then you have to make
Speaker 1: a decision. You're gonna activate. Yeah, just you gotta be
Speaker 1: Johnson on it. I mean four years ago he was
Speaker 1: the best you got traded for like a second round pick, right,
Speaker 1: that was the d hop trade.
Speaker 3: Well this is the this is the Yeah. Some dudes
Speaker 3: are just they just want to play ball. Some teams
Speaker 3: you can be the man on in another office you
Speaker 3: go to and you just not don't fit that system.
Speaker 3: You just have the man and that's just what it is.
Speaker 5: And I see it the line, I see casts gold
Speaker 5: places and I'm like, dude, what happened to him? It's
Speaker 5: just the system that then, or the coach don't like him,
Speaker 5: or I can't. I hate to say the other coach
Speaker 5: you don't like him, but sometimes you know your coaches,
Speaker 5: and I always.
Speaker 2: Sometimes the coach doesn't like him, and that's okay. But
Speaker 2: the amount of times you hear the coach doesn't fuck
Speaker 2: with me, I'm like, you're a fucking liar through maybe
Speaker 2: that ship I call that's the whole thing. Man, the
Speaker 2: coaches and fuck with me, man, I've seen you drop
Speaker 2: the ball.
Speaker 3: Don't pretend like with coaches for anybody that's good. I
Speaker 3: know I was exactly baddest student in high school. I
Speaker 3: was probably one of the baddest kids in high school
Speaker 3: at my high school, and the coaches love me. They
Speaker 3: hated me, but they love me.
Speaker 5: You get what I'm saying, Like they would not let
Speaker 5: me date they daughters if they had, if I had
Speaker 5: the opportunity and be like, hell know, he gonna get
Speaker 5: shot before he eighteen, Like that's what they thought, you
Speaker 5: know what I mean? But they football player? Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 5: can you send me a FaceTime video to my student?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Remember I was Remember I wasn't gonna be though.
Speaker 3: But because more often than not, it's something that you like,
Speaker 3: you basically hurt your own situation.
Speaker 4: Yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 1: It's not. Usually the only time a coach doesn't like
Speaker 1: the players.
Speaker 3: If their personalities clash and the coach is trying to
Speaker 3: like build something culturally inside that they're like, yeah, I'm
Speaker 3: not gonna.
Speaker 1: This dude seems like he's he can if you're good enough.
Speaker 1: But sometimes does not matter. Sometimes he goes to be
Speaker 1: too big on that. I don't know.
Speaker 2: With Malarkey, Malarkey and I didn't like each other, and
Speaker 2: I liked it, but he made it a point.
Speaker 1: I made it a point to be disrespectful to him.
Speaker 4: He can't do nothing, though, but they.
Speaker 1: Couldn't do nothing. You can't do nothing. You were you
Speaker 1: were like you were the investment. Yeah, but I was
Speaker 1: still in my rookie contract then yeah.
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying, like, he's not gonna you were
Speaker 3: the guy like you were starting and you were the
Speaker 3: first round draft pick, Like he's not gonna be able
Speaker 3: to implement what he if he didn't like you, or
Speaker 3: if you were kind of on the cuffs, like if
Speaker 3: Delaney was old the new coach came in and raved
Speaker 3: didn't fuck with you, and he's like, I'm building the
Speaker 3: fucking culture. You're either in or you're out, or you
Speaker 3: want to miss practice a lot. You're somebody you can
Speaker 3: make an example of. If you feel good about who
Speaker 3: you got to mind you, Oh, that'd be big news.
Speaker 3: But then John Yu and fergl you know, we come up,
Speaker 3: but it'd be like a situation like that.
Speaker 5: I feel like no, and you're right, Like you gotta
Speaker 5: think Malarkey was a headstrong coach and at that time,
Speaker 5: Taylor was was coming to who he was and Malarkey
Speaker 5: don't like kind of like that, like.
Speaker 1: He wants everybody if the line was like this, everybody
Speaker 1: need to be on the line. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: It ain't gonna be like that.
Speaker 4: It ain't gonna be like nah, we all gonna be even.
Speaker 5: And that's because that's how the only reason why I know,
Speaker 5: because he was my tight end coach and he'll be
Speaker 5: like you may be here, but we all here.
Speaker 1: Yeah. You know what I'm saying, malarkey, him as a
Speaker 1: tight ends coach and him as a head coach. People
Speaker 1: dramatically differ.
Speaker 4: You're different, very different.
Speaker 5: Awful because like I'm not gonna see her in line.
Speaker 5: Like when he was my tight end coach, like a
Speaker 5: father to me, you know what I'm saying. I loved him, Yeah,
Speaker 5: like he was drink beer, will here, bring bear, his
Speaker 5: family taught. We have some good conversations in the type.
Speaker 5: But when he became the head coach, I kind of
Speaker 5: got scared of him, you know what I'm saying. It
Speaker 5: was like, what can I tell him now? I don't
Speaker 5: want to because he looked at it differently. You know,
Speaker 5: if you tell him something now, it's kind of offending him, Like,
Speaker 5: oh wait, I'm the head coach.
Speaker 4: You shouldn't be talking to me like that.
Speaker 5: So I kind of got scared of Malarkey when he
Speaker 5: became the head coach because he did change a little bit.
Speaker 4: Like Taylor said, he was a whole different.
Speaker 2: Difference between Mike Malarkey as a tight ands coach and
Speaker 2: the head coach. When he was a Titans coach. I
Speaker 2: be head coach, He'd be like, calling Mike, you're in
Speaker 2: the league. I would call him Mike. And he became
Speaker 2: the head coach a weakened him being the head coach.
Speaker 1: I was like, hey Mike.
Speaker 2: He's like, hey, it's coach. It was that dramatic of
Speaker 2: a difference. He was awful, dude. I'm so you hate
Speaker 2: to see him switch up, like the only the only
Speaker 2: issue with Mike getting fired was Russ Grim also having
Speaker 2: to leave because.
Speaker 5: He was the He didn't want y'all know he got
Speaker 5: fired because of that, right. He didn't want Russ to leave.
Speaker 5: Any't want Terry to leave.
Speaker 1: I think it was more Terry than Russ. We had
Speaker 1: a great off line.
Speaker 4: Think it was morer too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I heard no, I heard that. I heard they
Speaker 2: were like, hey, you got to fire Terry and he's like,
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna. I also heard he was out no
Speaker 2: matter what I know.
Speaker 1: I he called me and he said he was in.
Speaker 1: And then I a day later, I heard that, Okay,
Speaker 1: so this is what I heard.
Speaker 2: I heard before Kansas City in twenty seventeen, they're like,
Speaker 2: if you don't win this game, you're out. But I
Speaker 2: heard that John already made that decision in his head,
Speaker 2: like he's done him and Amy already talked. He won
Speaker 2: against Kansas City. We got our we got our asses
Speaker 2: kids against the Patriots. After that, I heard what you
Speaker 2: what you just said? I heard that, hey, you can stay,
Speaker 2: but you have to release.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I heard it was I heard it was we're bisky.
Speaker 5: But then someone else said it was the whole coach staff.
Speaker 5: They wanted him to fire the whole coaching staff, and
Speaker 5: he said he wouldn't do it. And I don't know,
Speaker 5: but I heard it was Terry or like they need
Speaker 5: to get rid of Terry but him and Terry was like,
Speaker 5: Harry's the man too.
Speaker 1: I love man.
Speaker 5: Terry still be texting me sometimes Terry and him was
Speaker 5: like this. But then when I was like, damn, he
Speaker 5: wouldn't just just fired Terry, Terry would have understood that.
Speaker 1: Got to understand. It's the business the business. If he
Speaker 1: had set him in his office is to Terry this situation.
Speaker 1: They told me, I'd have to fire you, Like it
Speaker 1: just is what it is, buddy, you gotta go, you
Speaker 1: gotta go, but just what it is. And then everybody
Speaker 1: was like, oh, it just wasn't Terry. It was everybody.
Speaker 5: And I was like, he definitely wasn't gonna fire russ I.
Speaker 5: At the end of the day, he can't fire that
Speaker 5: dude is to go.
Speaker 1: He couldn't do it. He's the best, He's the best
Speaker 1: coach I've ever had. Couldn't do it. So I like,
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer all of that. You he can't do it.
Speaker 2: Changed the off ofs the line. I know the year
Speaker 2: he got there twenty sixteen, we were the best office
Speaker 2: line the league.
Speaker 5: And I'm like, they dugg So obviously if he he
Speaker 5: not gonna fire that man, I guess he gotta go.
Speaker 4: So he loyal. He loyal to his family, his friends.
Speaker 1: And one loyal to me. He was not, dude, I
Speaker 1: remember something happened. He loved me though he loved you.
Speaker 2: That's why it's a funny conversation to have with you,
Speaker 2: because we have two dramatic different viewpoints.
Speaker 1: On Mike.
Speaker 4: I know, but when he became the head coach, I'm
Speaker 4: with you.
Speaker 5: When he became to hitch up big time, I was
Speaker 5: scared to talk to him when he became the head coach.
Speaker 2: So he something happened. We played Detroit when we won,
Speaker 2: like last second, I think, who was the dude that
Speaker 2: played for Houston for a long time? Playing the team
Speaker 2: for like oh Andre Andre Johnson. Yes, he made it
Speaker 2: the last catch, and I like, I played well that game.
Speaker 2: But oh that Friday, I started yelling at Mollarkey, like
Speaker 2: he and I got an argument. Remember he kicked me
Speaker 2: out of practice. Oh yeah, mister, when you were talking
Speaker 2: about like when you're so mad you can't do nothing
Speaker 2: that he legit start crying. I went into his office
Speaker 2: and I was like, I don't understand it. I don't
Speaker 2: know why you come at me like I'm doing the
Speaker 2: best I can to help like this team, blah blah blah,
Speaker 2: and I'm legit crying at him. I was so mad,
Speaker 2: so mad, and he just looked at me and goes,
Speaker 2: that seems like your problem and sent me out.
Speaker 1: From then on, I was like, fuck this guy.
Speaker 5: Sometimes I feel like if he's seen himself and y'all
Speaker 5: like players. He treated y'all like that because something like
Speaker 5: I don't know, because he would show us like footage
Speaker 5: of him playing and he kind of was like that
Speaker 5: the white dude that worked hard and yeah yeah, he
Speaker 5: would just be like he would treat them the worst.
Speaker 2: And he treated Supernow real bad, real bad, really bad.
Speaker 2: Superno was like, no matter what you knew, that kid
Speaker 2: was gonna throw his head into people before supernown got comfortable,
Speaker 2: because I think that the last year he got a
Speaker 2: little too comfortable, got in too much of a home
Speaker 2: when Supernoll was like chipping my shoulder back against the wall,
Speaker 2: super Doll, Oh my.
Speaker 1: God, the dog go pass.
Speaker 5: I go fight anybody, hit anybody, and pass it as
Speaker 5: hard as he can. Layout do the most dirtiest stuff.
Speaker 1: Bro. Bro, What did he say to that one Canadian kid? Bro?
Speaker 1: Because none of us liked him. I know she would
Speaker 1: go hard, getting practice hard.
Speaker 2: He was like tackling dude and practice like yo, fucking stop.
Speaker 2: And he was like Supernos one day, gets up to practice,
Speaker 2: gets up in the team meeting and Mark's like Philip,
Speaker 2: Superno wants to say something, and superanizs like, hey, guys,
Speaker 2: I want to apologe apologize to you.
Speaker 1: Like I said, I think he said racial slur.
Speaker 4: I think he called him a dirty Muslim.
Speaker 2: He say dirty he said Muslim, but the way he
Speaker 2: said it, the way he was talking like in the meeting,
Speaker 2: I'm like, Yo, does Philip call somebody the nword?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 5: Because that's what he was like. Man, they came to
Speaker 5: me like, oh, he Phillip said something racist. I said,
Speaker 5: what do he say? They was like, I'm like, he
Speaker 5: he what he say? And he was like he said
Speaker 5: something I don't even know.
Speaker 2: It's like I think he said Muslim, Muslim or something,
Speaker 2: but all he said was Muslim.
Speaker 5: And I'm like what I was like, But this dude
Speaker 5: can see every black song, every every he ain't got
Speaker 5: no racist in this.
Speaker 1: I say. He crazy as hell, yeah, but he ain't racist.
Speaker 1: Because they all wanted me.
Speaker 5: They all wanted me to do something to him, and
Speaker 5: I'm like, I ain't doing nothing to feel like y'all
Speaker 5: don't do something to him.
Speaker 1: Probably was your best friend of the team.
Speaker 5: It was my best friend. Yeah, that's why they would
Speaker 5: come cross. Every time phil did something dirty to somebody, they.
Speaker 3: Came and cried to me. I'm like, tell him, Yeah,
Speaker 3: talk to him. What are y'all scarful as?
Speaker 1: Tell him?
Speaker 5: Yeah, because I mean, I don't know, Phil got it.
Speaker 5: He got a problem, you know what I mean? He
Speaker 5: re ready to fight all the time and do the
Speaker 5: craziest stuff. So I think everybody on the team was
Speaker 5: just like shook or feel a little bit because what
Speaker 5: he did in practice, Like he when Phil first got there,
Speaker 5: I was like, man, dude, you're gonna get hurt.
Speaker 4: I used to tell him, Hey, slow down, bro, like
Speaker 4: you're going four.
Speaker 1: Board, go run fifty yards downfield?
Speaker 3: Fifty yards downfield? Kickoff returns just hit somebody. He was
Speaker 3: he was injured when I was there, Yeah, bro, basically
Speaker 3: just talked about how.
Speaker 1: That was when he was That was when he was
Speaker 1: getting comfortable.
Speaker 2: That when you got there is when Phil like kind
Speaker 2: of like he got a little dog kind of left
Speaker 2: a little bit and he was more like all right,
Speaker 2: like I've they.
Speaker 5: Gave him to like that for so long. Yeah, they
Speaker 5: gave him two million. Once they gave him the money,
Speaker 5: he he kind of shut it down a little bit.
Speaker 1: Of a Phil's listening to this, that's toughing friend to here. No,
Speaker 1: you know, he gave him that two mil My boy,
Speaker 1: was like, hey, I'm the third not the fourth. Yeah, bro.

Speaker 2: we'll get your boy.

Speaker 1: I bet what's he doing. They talked about you either
Speaker 1: scrapping with Jarell or like doing something. I'm just thinking
Speaker 1: like once a year, me and me to do games.
Speaker 5: They would be like, man, what's up with seventy seven?
Speaker 5: I'd be like, he always talking taking his helmet, office.
Speaker 1: My fucking in hair.
Speaker 5: I don't know, but he calmed down. You started to
Speaker 5: calm down. Used to be now, I used to be
Speaker 5: Taylor because Taylor be bro. They would have like talking
Speaker 5: it to that. I'm like we in a huddle, Taylor
Speaker 5: in that that playing Oakland.
Speaker 1: That Herbstreet was getting you on that one. Yeah, Herbstreet
Speaker 1: came Hurvestreet came after him. Yeah one time for that.
Speaker 2: It was against Oakland, right, Yeah, It's such a funny
Speaker 2: situation in Herpstreet because I love him, we're good friends.
Speaker 1: Now come on the bus, and I know he will,
Speaker 1: he absolutely will.
Speaker 2: But yeah, he did like called me a fake tough guy,
Speaker 2: like I'm the reason this and that like went at
Speaker 2: me hard that damn. He really fucking killing me right there.
Speaker 2: And then he did apologize at a press game. But
Speaker 2: I legit had a slim shading myself after that game.

Speaker 1: I'm the problem, No you, I'm the fucking issue. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: I just had a couple of times I got a
Speaker 2: bunch of penalties against Kansas City one year two, and
Speaker 2: I had a slim shady myself then, because that's how
Speaker 2: you get him, bro, if you fucked up and you're like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm a fucking paller, everyone's like.
Speaker 6: I remember like four times people were like, don't even
Speaker 6: think about fucking tweeting Taylor after like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, because I used to get penalty.
Speaker 1: Is any fight breakout here?
Speaker 4: Come hit people?
Speaker 5: Like running to the crowd face first, all in the
Speaker 5: I'm like Taylor, and then I don't know, out of
Speaker 5: nowhere the one game Marcus get hit, I see Taylor
Speaker 5: sitting on the floor.
Speaker 1: Bro, Denver, that was the Denver Broncos. I'm like, where
Speaker 1: the hell does Taylor? No, it wasn't.
Speaker 2: It wasn't Marcus. It was Harry Douglas. He does Harry
Speaker 2: sleep har Yeah, in the in the knee and he
Speaker 2: had to go out for a play and he was like,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna get your ass and the next play I
Speaker 2: keep like tossing everybody big fight. Once I realized it
Speaker 2: was Marcus, I was like, I gotta say, I sat
Speaker 2: in the fifty yard line just they wanted.
Speaker 3: You to be they wanted you to be better, so
Speaker 3: you're like being over your man like extra, I turn around.
Speaker 3: He indian sturs middle hold that picture.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was like my my coaches said I couldn't
Speaker 2: play with the other and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: Bro.
Speaker 2: That was because I remember a big fight breaking out
Speaker 2: and my hand like perfect opportunity and I literally sat

Speaker 3: Yeah, I look like because I'm used to saying Taylor
Speaker 3: just come I'm gonna usually grab tailor like he.

Speaker 1: That's so funny. I can't believe that.
Speaker 3: Like all the dudes who have extra antics, like after
Speaker 3: playing stuff, the labels just easily to.
Speaker 1: Say it's fake tough guy. Yeah, because anytime I've been
Speaker 1: in another room and they're going over the old line.
Speaker 3: I feel like that's all decordinate would say, go ahead,
Speaker 3: seventy seven back. Yeah, he's good, he can do some
Speaker 3: good things, but he look, he's a fake tough guy.
Speaker 1: You just got to get in his head. But Taylor
Speaker 1: would get my head. That's what he was doing.
Speaker 5: Like, that's what I say when That's why I would
Speaker 5: let him do his talking for a little bit. But
Speaker 5: then when Marcus to be like get Taylor, I'm.
Speaker 1: Like, Taylor, man, come on, get Prance back over press
Speaker 1: over Yo.

Speaker 1: what they call islands in Caladoria. Yeah, there's an islands.

Speaker 5: but everyone liked me because I didn't really bang like
Speaker 5: that and I would play football, so what you.
Speaker 1: Mean didn't bang like that? Just like a part time
Speaker 1: job because like you go back back to where your environment,
Speaker 1: that's where you is. Yeah.
Speaker 5: I never really had to bang because they all knew
Speaker 5: I was a good football player and then no one
Speaker 5: really could beat me up in my neighborhood, so they
Speaker 5: couldn't make me be a game banger. But I hung
Speaker 5: out with them, so I'm affiliated with them because people
Speaker 5: saw me with them, you know what I mean, That's

Speaker 2: Nashville Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Listen up and listening closely
Speaker 2: because you don't want to end up like one of
Speaker 2: those people we all know. Did you know that driving
Speaker 2: high is considered driving under the influence?
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 2: Driving under the influence of marijuana is against the law
Speaker 2: in every state, even states where marijuana is legal. That
Speaker 2: means driving high could get you a duy. And if
Speaker 2: you think law enforcement officers can't tell when you're driving high,
Speaker 2: you're wrong. Your friends can tell, your coworkers can tell,
Speaker 2: even your parents can tell. Everyone can tell. So what
Speaker 2: makes you think that law enforcement officers don't know when
Speaker 2: you're driving high? Driving under the influence of marijuana can
Speaker 2: slow your response time and change how you perceive time
Speaker 2: and speed. So even if you think you're fine to
Speaker 2: drive when you're high, you're not because the bottom line,
Speaker 2: the bottom line is if you feel different, you drive different,
Speaker 2: and driving high is driving under the influence. So remember

Speaker 1: My shout out, no shadow of the week is.
Speaker 2: When you have a friend and you see that friend
Speaker 2: have success and knowing them before that success and like
Speaker 2: being able to be at their moment when they were
Speaker 2: able to have like their defining moment in their career,
Speaker 2: and that that came to us on Friday. Yes, being
Speaker 2: able to see Jelly Roll sell out Bridgetone Arena and
Speaker 2: have the moment he did.
Speaker 1: There was a moment I literally got choked up. He played.
Speaker 2: He came out of the gate hot, three banger songs, Boom, boom, boom,
Speaker 2: and he stops after that third song, kind of takes
Speaker 2: a second, and as he's taking a second, people are.
Speaker 1: Going jelly jelly, the whole fucking crowd.
Speaker 2: I got goosebumps right now, the whole crowd, fifteen thousand
Speaker 2: people are cheering his name, and you can tell he
Speaker 2: is truly taking that moment to realize everything he's done
Speaker 2: in his life that's led up to this, being dealing drugs,
Speaker 2: spending ten years in prison, watching the Music City Miracle
Speaker 2: from juvenile detention center, and now and being in his
Speaker 2: hometown selling out Bridge Stone Arena, one of the iconic
Speaker 2: places to sell out in Nashville, Tennessee. Took that moment
Speaker 2: and seeing the emotions on his face and him bringing
Speaker 2: up all his friends, whether it was Ernest or Hardy.
Speaker 2: He brought his wife up at one point it was
Speaker 2: just such a celebrated moment that he did incredibly well
Speaker 2: that we were lucky en at to be a part
Speaker 2: of and to know Jelly since like the beginning of
Speaker 2: doing this podcast, he legit was a fan of us
Speaker 2: and I didn't even know really about Jelly when I met.
Speaker 2: When I met him was like yeah, Thanksgiving, Yes, and
Speaker 2: I can't. I was like, I gotta start listening to
Speaker 2: this dude. And since then, the sense knowing him and
Speaker 2: there's low key like being his friend and watching him
Speaker 2: have the success he has is like a truly special moment.
Speaker 2: And so my shadow goes to, uh, pretty much a
Speaker 2: Jelly roll. I what an outstanding real dude.
Speaker 6: I don't know if he talked about it at the show,
Speaker 6: but apparently he did not donated all the proceeds that
Speaker 6: whole show to the Metro Juvenile Detention Center.
Speaker 1: Awesome.
Speaker 6: It was like apparently like two and thirty seven thousand
Speaker 6: problems sold out.
Speaker 2: Bridging told me, yeah, I mean that was that he

Speaker 5: everything for him, so that's the way they do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Bro, he really is killing He really is killing it.
Speaker 1: I thought that was a phenomenal shout out. I thought
Speaker 1: you were also. I thought you might's going to talk
Speaker 1: about Ernest.
Speaker 3: I felt at the moment we were having with him
Speaker 3: on the couch when he's playing, like, you know, we
Speaker 3: don't want to give away any secrets, but he was
Speaker 3: playing some bangers to where it's like knowing him before
Speaker 3: that channel.
Speaker 2: That's a good one too, because he is gonna have
Speaker 2: Ernest has got something in the back that we can't
Speaker 2: talk about right now. But if he does what we
Speaker 2: what he's told us he might do, that's good. That's
Speaker 2: just gonna be cool as fun. Yeah, man, it's gonna
Speaker 2: be cool as fun. So we'll tell you guys afterwards.
Speaker 2: But yeah, its fire. It's somebud the creedy he sent me.

Speaker 3: and a half. We got to get to the roadback.
Speaker 3: Last question, But that's true. This is a mount Bus
Speaker 3: Morris episode like this has been phenomenal for to have
Speaker 3: you back on when.

Speaker 1: to hit us up. The BASEketball guys, they probably the episode.
Speaker 1: They it will be like an hour special. It is
Speaker 1: that good. All right, listen, this is the last question.
Speaker 1: We know you have to go. This is the roadback.
Speaker 1: Last question for those of you with Roadback.
Speaker 2: Use code boys on roadback dot com for twenty percent
Speaker 2: off your first purchase. That's our h O B A
Speaker 2: c K dot com and that code will be busting. Sorry,
Speaker 2: that code will be boys B O Y S. They
Speaker 2: work at the best college athletes, from Will Anderson to
Speaker 2: the Boy Michael Mayer to B Jean Robinson. They also
Speaker 2: just dropped new performance joggers, so trust us, these things
Speaker 2: are gonna be worth it. So use code boys to
Speaker 2: get twenty percent off. That's rollback dot Com. Our question
Speaker 2: to you is top three tight ends in the game
Speaker 2: right now? And there's a there's a second question and
Speaker 2: the best one coming up. Who are the top three
Speaker 2: boys out there?
Speaker 4: Travis number one?
Speaker 1: Your boss?
Speaker 5: You don't think so? I mean Travis Cattle two, This
Speaker 5: Kettle is two, and then that's just how I say.
Speaker 5: Is now I got and then.
Speaker 1: Three right now, Greg Kettle Kettle? Who is who is three?
Speaker 1: Right now?
Speaker 5: Who is who's caught my eye at the third? I
Speaker 5: would have to say, that's a tough one. I'm not
Speaker 5: really sure who's been balling in the third.
Speaker 1: In the third place, he's a tight end. I can't say.
Speaker 5: I can't give you because you have one game. You
Speaker 5: can't boy from baltimoregs Andrews. You know what, Andrew's been balling.
Speaker 5: But I wanted to say, O buddy from Philly, but
Speaker 5: he got hurt because he started off ball. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 5: So I'll go with Andrews because the dude from Philly
Speaker 5: got hurt.
Speaker 1: Excuse me, it's backwards calf now he's in his last calf.
Speaker 1: So I go with Andrews.
Speaker 5: I think he he's at the top of his game
Speaker 5: right now, but for sure the top two and them boys,
Speaker 5: they can't be stopped.
Speaker 4: It's uh Travis and Kettle Kettle.
Speaker 1: Kettle Kettle has been hurt all year. Heard he's a
Speaker 1: beast of his new song.
Speaker 5: I'm doing it right now. You're talking about the game
Speaker 5: right now. Who's bawling right now? And that's that's who
Speaker 5: I got.
Speaker 1: You say Kelsey won right away? How far away is
Speaker 1: Kettle from Kelsey?
Speaker 9: Uh?
Speaker 4: Not too far away. But I feel like Travis is
Speaker 4: consistent every year. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: He's had like a thousand yards every year. He consistent
Speaker 1: every year. I gat, I just don't.
Speaker 5: I just don't see nobody else just really even comparing
Speaker 5: with him, especially with Patrick Mahomes right now and what
Speaker 5: they got and it ain't even got a really top
Speaker 5: tier receiver, So he's gonna keep getting fat.
Speaker 4: Now you look at the forty nine ers.
Speaker 5: I know Debo took an injury yesterday, but they still
Speaker 5: got players around they tight in that can take away
Speaker 5: from his numbers.
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's what I look at. Who's an up
Speaker 3: and comer and why is the teacher? I'm gonna think
Speaker 3: you don't think he's just nice? Yeah, I know, I
Speaker 3: think he's nice, But I'm gonna go with my own,
Speaker 3: my own teammate, Chig. I think Chig is up and coming.
Speaker 3: I think he just got it.
Speaker 5: I just I feel like he just gotta understand that
Speaker 5: it's the same as college.
Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: You you that player. It got you here do what
Speaker 1: you was doing in college. And obviously the game is a.
Speaker 5: Little faster, but you have that ability to be that
Speaker 5: person like he gives us sprinkles of it, you know.
Speaker 5: It just gotta be more consistent. I think that'll come
Speaker 5: over years of him just being in the offense and
Speaker 5: and feeling comfortable and knowing that a you that guy,
Speaker 5: So we gonna need you to step up and I
Speaker 5: think he's starting to understand that. So I think Chigg
Speaker 5: is an up and comer, especially with the Titans and
Speaker 5: having Derek. He can be a role for his team
Speaker 5: and makes some big plays and also be up there
Speaker 5: in the top tier with the tight end.
Speaker 1: So that's got to make you feel good. I listen
Speaker 1: to that, right. Yeah, he was legit Walker in camp.
Speaker 1: He was legit doing that to guys too. I was like, Oh,
Speaker 1: this kid's gonna be somebody. Yeah. Yeah, I think he's
Speaker 1: gotten the reference to Landy Walker.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I talked to him a proof right there.
Speaker 4: I think he got it. Man.
Speaker 5: We kind of look similar on the field the way
Speaker 5: we built. I just once he get his you were
Speaker 5: bigger than him, Yeah, I was bigger than him. But
Speaker 5: I think once he get his feet under him and
Speaker 5: and just really understand his role with the Titans, I
Speaker 5: think he gonna be gonna be big. He ain't gonna
Speaker 5: catch up the trafficks in them right away, but it'll come.
Speaker 1: He's also on the offense, huh, like Travis gets the
Speaker 1: ball every time?
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, no, that's what I'm saying. He not able
Speaker 5: to do with Travis. If you watched Travis route Travis.
Speaker 5: But I watched Travis routs. You never know what he
Speaker 5: really doing because he'll run and it'll be someone he'll
Speaker 5: just stop and then he just.
Speaker 4: Throw them the ball. You know some of his routes
Speaker 4: not even routes, he just he was like me.
Speaker 5: And I say that because when you is creative and
Speaker 5: you got the ability to kind of freelance out there
Speaker 5: with the offense, that's how you get the plays. Like
Speaker 5: people will tell you all the time, I didn't run
Speaker 5: the exact route that they told me to run. I
Speaker 5: ran to get open. And that's what he does. He
Speaker 5: runs to get open until and when Chick understands that.
Speaker 5: But he can't do that now because he not that player.
Speaker 5: They'll get upset at him and like, you didn't even
Speaker 5: run the route. But once he get to that point
Speaker 5: where he like, I'm a run kind of the route,
Speaker 5: but I'm getting open, because that's what it's all about.
Speaker 5: If I just ran the route they told me, I
Speaker 5: would have been covered every time. But I did what
Speaker 5: I want to get the ball from Marcus. I'm like,
Speaker 5: I gotta get open. Marcus looking for me.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think once he understand that and get that ability,
Speaker 1: he just really need to watch.
Speaker 5: I will watch a lot of film with Travis too,
Speaker 5: just to understand that route running ability.
Speaker 1: And then how important is it to be on the
Speaker 1: same page as a quarterback.
Speaker 4: Very importucause you.
Speaker 3: Almost gotta think the way they do. It's like, Okay,
Speaker 3: he's seeing the covers, i'na sit right here.
Speaker 1: And that's where it comes down to.
Speaker 5: You really gotta be sync with your quarterback because you
Speaker 5: got to see what he's saying. If you see it's
Speaker 5: a dude sitting over there, what you think the quarterback
Speaker 5: see he's sitting over there, the dude standing right in
Speaker 5: his own don't run over there, because the quarterback gonna
Speaker 5: throw it to you. If you running over there, of
Speaker 5: course he gonna throw it over there. But if you
Speaker 5: stop and give him a landmark, he gonna he gonna
Speaker 5: make the right decision. And it sometimes it's always put
Speaker 5: on a quarterback, but it's the receiver far too.
Speaker 1: The quarterback don't have four eyes.
Speaker 5: He can't be looking over here while he reading the
Speaker 5: coverage and then he see you just crossing the field.
Speaker 1: He gonna throw the ball.
Speaker 4: He thinks you open.
Speaker 5: But you have the ability to look to the corner
Speaker 5: and see that he's sitting there. Stop slow down, dude,
Speaker 5: like don't run at full speed, kind of like slow
Speaker 5: yourself down so he can put it on you. You
Speaker 5: can make a move. It's just a lot of things
Speaker 5: that go into play, but I'll try. Was does that
Speaker 5: the best to me? That's That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: That was that was good? That was an outstanding answer. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just fine in a soft spot, just getting open, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. Coach Bloss, Yeah, Coach BLOSSI back there, baby.
