00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 1: com slash camp. The Colts closed out the preseason on Saturday.

13
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: They host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Kickoff is set for

14
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 1: seven thirty on Saturday night, and the planets for the

15
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: Colts starting units play about a half and getting some

16
00:00:47,560 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: final work on the game field before the regular season

17
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: starts on September eleventh. Then the second and third teamers

18
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: would play primarily in the second half at quarterback. That

19
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: means Matt and Ryan will start the game play until

20
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: about halftime, then Nick Foles in the third quarter. Sam

21
00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: Ellinger's some in the second half, and then Frank Reich

22
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: was non committal if fourth string quarterback Jack Cone would

23
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 1: see the field in the preseason finale. Colts made some

24
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: roster moves on Monday and again today in accordance with

25
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: NFL rule, they had to trim the roster from eighty

26
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: six to eighty one by four o'clock today. On Monday

27
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 1: they wave wide receiver DJ Montgomery and defensive tackle Cvion Patton,

28
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 1: and then today they wave center Alex Mollette and running

29
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,479
Speaker 1: back CJ. Verdell. So that means the Colts have six

30
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: running backs still on the roster ahead of Saturday's preseason finale.

31
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 1: Also of note, the Colts are still carrying four quarterbacks

32
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: as we mentioned, and they're still carrying two kickers heading

33
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 1: into the preseason finale. Rodrigo Blankenship and Jake Verity are

34
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: still in competition as of now, and the Colts, just

35
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: like every team, they're gonna have to trim that roster

36
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: down to fifty three players a week from today at

37
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: four o'clock next Tuesday as they get ready for the

38
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: regular season. All right time for very quick time out

39
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 1: come back. We're gonna visit with Colts wide receiver Mike Stron,

40
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 1: who came off a pup last week, played really well

41
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: against Detroit last Saturday, hauling in a touchdown pass in

42
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,919
Speaker 1: the second quarter. What does that score mean to him,

43
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: How's he feeling health wise, and what's he focusing on

44
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: this last week of camp. That's all coming up next

45
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,800

57
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the preseason finale on Saturday.

58
00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: Kick off of that game as scheduled for seven third

59
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 1: at Lucas Oil stadium and as always you can hear

60
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:04,840
Speaker 1: all the action right here on ninety three five and

61
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 1: one oh seven five the Fan. A man looking to

62
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: close out camp and the preseason strong as Mike Strown.

63
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: He's looking to make the team at wide receiver after

64
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: missing most of the off season. He tore his meniscus

65
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: in OTAs, but came off of pup last Tuesday and

66
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: has immediately made an impact. And then he backed that

67
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: up on the game field against Detroit on Saturday, three

68
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: catches forty five yards in a fifteen yard touchdown catch

69
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: from Sam Ellinger in the second quarter. And earlier this

70
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: week I had a chance to visit with Mike and

71
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: asked him how special that first touchdown of the NFL

72
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: was to him. All be in a preseason game, all right,

73
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 1: me in the world to me? You know, I'm excited

74
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: to be able to, you know, come out here and

75
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: make some place on my team. You know, He's been

76
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: a long process for me. But being back in and

77
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 1: making some plays is real exciting. And you came off

78
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: of pup last week after missing a lot of time

79
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: in the spring and that first chunk of camp, how

80
00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: difficult was that for you to miss that that valuable

81
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: time for you on the field. The hardest part for me,

82
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: you know, it was being away from my team. You know,

83
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: my team made the coaches. That was the hardest part.

84
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: Not being able to practice. It was real difficult. And

85
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 1: but you know right now, I'm you have some great

86
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 1: but mental moving forward and I'm glad to be back.

87
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: What did you do to stay mentally and physically sharp

88
00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: during that time? I guess start first with the mental.

89
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: How did you go about making sure that you were

90
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,359
Speaker 1: on top of the playbook even though you weren't on

91
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: the field. Oh? Yes, mentally, you know, I had to

92
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 1: take a mental approach and I was not able to

93
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 1: go out there and do anything physical. But mentally, you know,

94
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,600
Speaker 1: I stayed in the game, stayed in the playbook, you know,

95
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: continue to meet with the QBS, stay on top of

96
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 1: the game. So from a mental standpoint, I just stayed focused,

97
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: stayed the course. And then physically, I mean, Frank Reich

98
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: talk last week. You've gone from zero to sixty in

99
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: a short amount of time. I know you're you were

100
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: dealing with that need. How did you physically stay conditioned

101
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: while you weren't on the field. You know a lot

102
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 1: of praying, you know, a lot of praying, a lot

103
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: of you know, doing extra work to make sure that

104
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,360
Speaker 1: my buddy is where it needs to be. Um So,

105
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: a lot of extra work, a lot of a lot

106
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: of time with the trainers and making sure you know,

107
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: good to go. It's Mike Stron with US Colts wide receiver. Mike.

108
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 1: How much more comfortable are you now compared to last

109
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: year as a rookie? Um? You know, the more the

110
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: more I'm out there, the more uncomfortable, you know, so

111
00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: being you know, from like you said last year, being

112
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: a rookie, you know, the first time coming in, you know,

113
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: it's always it's always the area where you got to

114
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 1: you know, get comfortable and get you know, get adjusted

115
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: with the team. But you know, I'm just a lot

116
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: more comfortable now and excited you know, for the process

117
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 1: moving forward, decided for the season, I mean the regular

118
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: season coming up. You know, it's real exciting. I mean

119
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 1: it was it was crazy last year. I mean, COVID

120
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: was still still ongoing. You had the protocols, you were

121
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: a rookie. You know, obviously a lot of quarterback carousel

122
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: around that position, around you trying to make the team

123
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,760
Speaker 1: coming from a Division two school. I mean, can you

124
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: describe just all that you were dealing with, uh, you know,

125
00:05:57,720 --> 00:05:59,599
Speaker 1: on the field and off the field last year as

126
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 1: a rookie trying to make this team. Yeah, you know,

127
00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: it was a lot that went with it. You know,

128
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: me coming from a small school, A lot of people

129
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: look down on me because of that, you know, and

130
00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 1: that was another obstacle I had to overcome and just

131
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: keep you looking down down down on me because I

132
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: came from a D two school. But you know, I

133
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 1: have a big heart, and I'm not, you know, worried

134
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: about that. I'm just ready for what this team has

135
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,440
Speaker 1: to offer. You know, I'm excited. You know, you're looking

136
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: good offense, defense, special teams, and I feel we could

137
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,559
Speaker 1: go all the way this year. Yeah. And what ways

138
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 1: has the game kind of slowed down for you? If

139
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: we can focus on the field for you, Mike being

140
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: able to being able to you know, I'm recoverage this

141
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 1: read um, you know, convert off a certain um zones,

142
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: you know, different stuff like that. Um Um, it's just

143
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 1: becoming more annoutable, uncomfortable for me. It's Mike strown again

144
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,480
Speaker 1: as a wild ride last year again drafted and shining

145
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,839
Speaker 1: in camp and then inactive down the stretch. Were you

146
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 1: able to kind of take some things away from last

147
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 1: year off the field that can kind of help you

148
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 1: going forward? Um, you know, just just staying mentally there,

149
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: you know, staying staying focus. That's the biggest thing. You know, people,

150
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: you know, when you're in a situation like me, you

151
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: tend to, you know, kind of drift away. But my

152
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:14,200
Speaker 1: whole mentality is, you know, my time is coming, and

153
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,640
Speaker 1: you know I believe that one hundred percent. But also

154
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: you know, saying that, you know, I'm just here to

155
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: do whatever I can for the team. You know that

156

176
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: on the field with him again, missing a lot of

177
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: the spring and then the early portions of training camp.

178
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: Have he learned anything about him or has anything about

179
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 1: him surprised you that you didn't know before you actually

180
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: got in the huddle with him. For me, it's just

181
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 1: watching his routine, you know, even pre snap. You know

182
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 1: what he's looking at, you know, things that he's seeing

183
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 1: just his routine throughout the day. You know, those are

184
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 1: the things you know, I pay attention to do. You know,

185
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: I like to ask myself, you know, what what does

186
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 1: the fourteen year event like him do throughout the day

187
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: and what are some of the things that he's looking at?

188
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: Pre snap you know, stuff like that. So watching his

189
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 1: routines and seeing what he does, it's kind of the

190
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: things that I pay attention to. Mike Stron is our

194
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 1: know he's he's played the game. UM. So you know

00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: the for the coats, you know, and for him. You know,

199
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:22,320

208
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: evolve as a coach as well? How have you seen
