1
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: Kean would take me through what you did to get

2
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: ready for year two this off season before coming here

3
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:21,079
Speaker 1: to OTAs.

4
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it was a lot of me time

5
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,240
Speaker 2: figuring out what I needed to get better at as

6
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:29,319
Speaker 2: a person, as a leader, and as a player. So

7
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,920
Speaker 2: I spent some time in Hawaii. I did training there,

8
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 2: body weight training, and then kind of empted up to

9
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 2: wait later in the training. But it was an awesome experience.

10
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 2: Got to clear my mind and get ready for year two.

11
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: Did you meet up with the herbigs at all? Yeah?

12
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 2: So it was us through there again.

13
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 1: Cool.

14
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 2: We all stayed under one roof, so the competitive aspect

15
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 2: was there every day all day, which I loved. That

16
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 2: camaraderie was awesome and we got after it.

17
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: When you say the meed time to figure out being

18
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: a better player, better leader, how do you do that?

19
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:05,759
Speaker 2: Just kind of figuring out how you learn and didn't

20
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 2: those times to aks the other vets questions. Nobody's playing ball,

21
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 2: so everybody kind of got the same schedule, and you

22
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 2: can reach out to those vets who may not play here,

23
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 2: but just reach out to those vets who kind of

24
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 2: know what it's what it's been like to get from

25
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 2: year one to year two.

26
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:23,399
Speaker 1: And who did you lean on?

27
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,399
Speaker 2: I asked Lane Johnson questions it so it was old

28
00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 2: lineman Lane Johnson, Yeah, John Runny and I talked to

29
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,360
Speaker 2: a little bit Nate Nick, But like we just all

30
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 2: came up with a plan that was best suitable for ourselves.

31
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 1: Was there anything you did difference to prepare your body

32
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,600
Speaker 1: for the physicality and a long NFL season, especially getting

33
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: off of your rookie season.

34
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 2: A lot of recovery, a lot of mobility work, just

35
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 2: making sure I'm taking care of my body not only

36
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 2: in a weightlifting aspect, but the recovery aspect as well.

37
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: It was here I think Dorian ot Is a mini

38
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: camp last year whre Larry Ogunjobi said he felt like

39
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: you were a dancing bear. Do you still still feel

40
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: like you are that dancing bear? Just yeah, yeah, oh yeah.

41
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 2: I got my hips loosened up and everything, so I'm

42
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 2: ready to go.

43
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 1: And then what goals after exit interviews with the coaches?

44
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 1: Did you kind of set for yourself as you head

45
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 1: into year two?

46
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 2: Just really that that taking that next step maturity wise,

47
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 2: being a voice that could step up for this team

48
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 2: and being that leader who's more comfortable with this role

49
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: and expanding my role. So that was my kind of

50
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 2: mindset going into this offseason. It's how can I expand

51
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 2: my role? How can I get lost guys to listen

52
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 2: to me? And it all just came down to being myself.

53
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: And do you feel like during ot is so far

54
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: you've been able to use your voice and implement some

55
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:37,800
Speaker 1: of those things you wanted to work with?

56
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely, or like I said, like, yeah, I feel

57
00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 2: like I have. I've always had like a natural flock,

58
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 2: like just my personality and in general people attracted to me,

59
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 2: so I was I was sure to keep those guys

60
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 2: at it and the young guys who came in, take

61
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,240
Speaker 2: 'em under my wing and do what I can do

62
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 2: to help.

63
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: What was it like to see Cam Hayward back here

64
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 1: at the facility?

65
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: It was great you came in today and you you

66
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,119
Speaker 2: could definitely have to tell the energy. Everybody who who

67
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 2: hasn't met 'em kind of looking at him figuring out

68
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 2: what and I'm just looking like watching everybody perspective. But

69
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 2: it was great to have him back in the building.

70
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 1: What does a guy like him and LARRYO mean to you?

71
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 1: And just helping you develop into the NFL player.

72
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,799
Speaker 2: I feel like those are two selfless guys like I.

73
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 2: Sometimes I feel like the questions were stupid, but they

74
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 2: would answer 'em with with honesty and let me know

75
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 2: that they ain't no stupid questions. So, just being the

76
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 2: guys that I lean on, my vets to ask any questions,

77
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 2: whether it's on or off the field, they're they're always

78
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: your Alright.

79
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: Can we talk a little wrestling a little bit? Yeah? Okay,

80
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: if you were to go against Zach Fraser, who would

81
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: win me? No questions as I'm gonna say me favor

82
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: for everybody. Okay, then let's do this. What if Zach

83
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: Fraser and Logan Lee went against each other.

84
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 2: I'm a D lineman, so I gotta go with the

85
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: D line.

86
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 1: Okay, D lion side. Does Peyton Wilson have a chance

87
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: of taking either of those guys down?

88
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 2: Taking them down? Yeah, he'll look scrappy, so I I

89
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 2: he got a chance first round. He a little scrapy guy.

90
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: Over the past few years, they've dropped a lot of wrestlers. Uh.

91
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,600
Speaker 1: How is that being incorporated in terms of maybe other

92
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: people asking questions about it? Or do you guys just

93
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 1: talk amongst yourselves about it.

94
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 2: Uh we. I feel like we don't talk about it

95
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,000
Speaker 2: as much as people think we do. Okay, but it's

96
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 2: just kind of that understanding of who who we are

97
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 2: and wrestling like it's just a little another little mini community,

98
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 2: just a different sport. Everybody you know, played basketball and

99
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 2: stuff like that, but wrestling was the gritty, grimy sport.

100
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 2: So it's it's nice to have that little community in

101
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:35,400
Speaker 2: the building.

102
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,480
Speaker 1: I know in Wisconsin you had some of the defensive

103
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: guys like Nick do some wrestling stuff with you. Is

104
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,080
Speaker 1: that the case here?

105
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 2: Not really, uh not yet. I'm actually I just found

106
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 2: a little spot, but just to roll around and stuff,

107
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,480
Speaker 2: get get used to falling in certain ways, moving and

108
00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 2: body in certain ways.

109
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

110
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 2: I kind of talk to Nate about doing it, he says, down,

111
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 2: but we haven't got to it yet. Okay.

112
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 1: Very cool. Well, thanks for your time. We appreciate it.

113
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:00,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you for he
