1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,960
Speaker 1: You walk us through your version number one of what

2
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: happened after the game with Jalen Ramsey and number two, Um,

3
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,799
Speaker 1: regardless of of who threw the first punch there, do

4
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: you regret putting yourself in a situation where you approached

5
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:20,400
Speaker 1: him after the game? And oh yeah you um, you know, honestly,

6
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: it's Dallas week. I don't even want to backpedal um

7
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: and discussed that because I don't think, you know, going

8
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 1: back to that's gonna help us this week. And I

9
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:31,479
Speaker 1: really don't want to draw any more attention or put

10
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: any more highlights out there that don't have anything to

11
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 1: do with Dallas. So I just kind of want to

12
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:40,840
Speaker 1: keep moving forward and you know, get a win this week.

13
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:44,160
Speaker 1: Just do you regret it at all? Anything that happened

14
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:49,960
Speaker 1: after the game though? Uh, next question, Actually you're gonna

15
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: like this question either, Golden, But I was just gonna

16
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: ask if there was anything, uh you know, what you

17
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: say to your your nieces or your sister after that,

18
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: after that happened. Uh, you know, my sister and I

19
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: talked about it, and we talked about it in detail,

20
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 1: but that was it, um Again, Like I couldn't you know,

21
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 1: I want to move forward to this week because that's

22
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 1: what's important. And then my other question would be have

23
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: you heard anything from the league on it, like do

24
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: you expect to be able to play against Dallas or

25
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: is there a possible discipline? You know, I'm not sure

26
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 1: what's gonna happen. I'm just practicing, trying to get ready

27
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: for for Dallas. That's I mean, we're hungry for a

28
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 1: win right now, and that's that's all that matters. And

29
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 1: I don't want to draw any attention away from what's important,

30
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: which is Dallas in terms of actual football. I guess, um,

31
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 1: I guess when when you look at how your first

32
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,920
Speaker 1: three games have gone, have you played up to the

33
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,319
Speaker 1: standard that like you you want to play up too?

34
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: Are you asking individually or collectively? Yeah? Individually, yeah, I'm

35
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,640
Speaker 1: absolutely not. Um, there's things I definitely want to do better,

36
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: and there's ways I want to figure out how to

37
00:01:55,960 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 1: help our team win. Um. You know. So yeah, we're

38
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,040
Speaker 1: are all still figuring it all out. UM, but we're

39
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: excited about this week. UM. So far, we've had a

40
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: great week of practice, UM, and we're looking forward to

41
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: getting out to Dallas and competing and trying to get

42
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 1: out there get out of there with a win. Gold

43
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,080
Speaker 1: I wanted to ask you about the Cowboys defensive backfield.

44
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: It looks like they've had some struggles back there. They've

45
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: had some different guys coming in out of the lineup

46
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,799
Speaker 1: and whatnot. What have you seen from that group and

47
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: is there are there struggles maybe a little deceiving to

48
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 1: the talent that they have. Um, well, you know, weekend

49
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 1: and week out, no matter who you are in the NFL,

50
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 1: you're going against some superior athletes, and you know, there's

51
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,960
Speaker 1: a lot of really good receivers. But you know, I

52
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 1: see a very talented UM secondary over there. Um. You

53
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: know the young guy they get just brought in Digs,

54
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 1: He's he's a long guy who can who can play

55
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: Jordan Lewis, Uh, he can play some good ball and

56
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:58,800
Speaker 1: their safeties as well. So you know, Um, you know,

57
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 1: I think they are a good secondary. Um. I think

58
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a great challenge for us, But you know,

59
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: I think we just need to go out there and

60
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: execute the best we possibly can and everything will work out. Hey, Golden, Um,

61
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,320
Speaker 1: just wanted to go back to Sunday real quick. Um,

62
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: did you addrust team at all about what happened, and

63
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,919
Speaker 1: what was your reaction to everybody kind of jumping to

64
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: your defense as quickly as they did. Like I said,

65
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: I really don't. I'm trying not to relive any of that.

66
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: I'm trying to move forward because in my mind, it

67
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,840
Speaker 1: doesn't really matter. UM, you know what happened, you know

68
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: outside of the you know we lost, we lost last week. UM,

69
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 1: you know, whatever happened happened. I just, you know, want

70
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: to just move forward with this week's game, UM, and

71
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: trying to get a win. All right, Well, what needs

72
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 1: to be different in this week's game? I mean, you

73
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 1: guys are averaging like Lesston well points a game and

74
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: seems pretty inconsistent. One needs to be different against the Cowboys,

75
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: who have given up more points than anybody in the league.

76
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: I can only speak for the offense, and I think offensively, UM,

77
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: I think we just need to be a little bit

78
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 1: more detailed. UM. I think we need to be fundamentally

79
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: more sound. UM. A lot of a lot of the

80
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: things we've done have been self inflicted. UM, so we

81
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 1: just want to we just gotta be a little bit sharper. UM.

82
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: I know that we're working hard every single day of practice.

83
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: We just need to put it together on Sundays or

84
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 1: whenever we're playing. But you know, you look back at

85
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 1: that film if we just do you know, if a

86
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: receiver does something slightly different than that third down, the

87
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: ball is completed and we moved the sticks, so things

88
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: like that. Um, you know, we just gotta be better

89
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 1: at Golden. I know you want to move forward, but

90
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 1: in order for that to happen, how important was for

91
00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:42,159
Speaker 1: you to go talk to coach Joe Judge about everything

92
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: that happened in order to sort of move it forward? Uh?

93
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: You know, Joe just kind of asked me what happened

94
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 1: and I told him, and you know, he took my

95
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 1: word for it, and then you know he moved on

96
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 1: and that was That was kind of it. And what's

97
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: what's this sweep than like for you? I mean, obviously

98
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,160
Speaker 1: it did attract a lot of attention. So how much

99
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,280
Speaker 1: has that sort of entered the picture for you this

100
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: week and been part of your preparation going forward? You know,

101
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: really I haven't really thought about it at all. Um,

102
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: you know since really Sunday and Monday. Um, you know,

103
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 1: I I try not to you know, when I when

104
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: I play well, I try not to read all the stuff,

105
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 1: and when I don't play well, I try not to

106
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: read it. So I'm pretty consistent with that. So I

107
00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 1: haven't really thought about it too much. UM, you know,

108
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 1: just kind of been trying to get focused. I mean,

109
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 1: we're just we're trying to get a win anyway we

110
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 1: possibly can. So I'm putting all my focus on that

111
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,719
Speaker 1: and seeing what I can do better, uh, you know,

112
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: as a receiver, how I can help the receivers. Um,

113
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 1: you know, make some more plays. I know football is

114
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: a team game, but when your defense plays as well

115
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: as it did on this past Sunday on the offensive side,

116
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: are you guys sitting there going sorry guys, or or

117
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: are you just sitting there and saying, well, we'll get

118
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: you next week or whatever. You know. I think we're

119
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 1: I think offensively, we hold ourselves to a high standard

120
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: and and we haven't met that. UM. And that's you know,

121
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: we we just take ownership for what we are doing. UM.

122
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: We do acknowledge that the defense has been playing very well. UM.

123
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 1: And you know, you have to score points to win

124
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 1: games and point like in the story, so we're trying

125
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,240
Speaker 1: to figure out ways to isolate guys make more plays. UM,

126
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, stay on stay on pace, you know, make

127
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 1: it third manageable and also make the plays, you know,

128
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: don't turn it over. Things like that. So we're just

129
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 1: trying to you know, do those things. But you know,

130
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: we we definitely see how how well the defense played

131
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: against a very explosive you know defense last week or

132
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: offense last week Golden in practice today, how did your

133
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 1: brun look? And was it good to have him back

134
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,039
Speaker 1: on the field. Yeah, definitely was nice to have him back,

135
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: just let to see him out there and his personality. Um.

136
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 1: I didn't get a chance to focus in on him

137
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: to see what he was doing so much, just because

138
00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 1: I was too focused on figuring out what's the next ariad?

139
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: You know what, what players we have, you know why

140
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:04,840
Speaker 1: I can do to you know, give him the same

141
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 1: page with with DJ. So I didn't get a chance

142
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 1: to actually look at him. I look at him on

143
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: film tonight though. And when it comes to um punt

144
00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 1: returns uh coach coach Baghett, he said, a lot of

145
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: that has to do with with you and him sort

146
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: of communicating about who who goes out to feel those punts?

147
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: How does that? How do those conversations work? Uh, you know,

148
00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,400
Speaker 1: I just stay ready for punt return. I'm always no

149
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 1: matter if I'm the start or not. Um, that's how

150
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: it's been my career. You know, I have a pass,

151
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: and then I understand that there's gonna be times where

152
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: Pep or whoever it is might need to breathe, or

153
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: something happens, or shoelace breaks, whatever it is. So I'm

154
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:48,160
