I said, nah, 0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:39.159 my growin ain't got that no more brown, ain't got 0:00:39.159 --> 0:00:40.240 what these young boys. 0:00:40.000 --> 0:00:43.000 Need no more. Man. This game is fast, man, I 0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:43.360 feel that. 0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:46.080 It is fast, and it is a lot of a 0:00:46.120 --> 0:00:49.440 lot more lateral than people understand. But I want to 0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:51.440 talk to you from the beginning because you grew up 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:53.960 in Detroit. I'm sure you wanted to go to Michigan 0:00:54.040 --> 0:00:57.080 or Michigan State. And you know there there's been this 0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.800 story out there of you and the Michigan State locker room. 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:01.520 You know what I mean, when you were young, when 0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:03.800 you're being recruited and trying to get there and they 0:01:03.800 --> 0:01:06.040 didn't even get your offer, and then you know. Obviously 0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:09.520 years later everybody left wishing, you know, what if, what if? 0:01:09.560 --> 0:01:11.720 What if? But tell me, tell me how you felt 0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:12.160 about that. 0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:15.720 Man, I remember that day, like as you'll can see 0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:16.839 the video, I was real young. 0:01:17.319 --> 0:01:19.000 I froed like five seven in that video. 0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:21.920 That was my freshman year and like that was my 0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:24.880 first time being in like a big locker room. 0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:26.399 Like a locker room was a big school. 0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:29.520 Obviously, I'm from Detroit, so Michigan, Michigan State, those are 0:01:29.560 --> 0:01:31.760 the schools that you grow up on to go to, 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:33.000 you know what I'm saying. 0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:34.800 Obviously my dream school is Oregon. 0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:37.160 I ain't gonna lie because they had swag, you know, 0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:39.640 the unis all that was fired. But like Michigan State 0:01:39.840 --> 0:01:41.760 was the one where I'm like, if I could go 0:01:41.800 --> 0:01:44.920 to like a Michigan school, like that'll probably be the 0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:46.920 That'll probably be the one, right. 0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:49.480 Yeah. A lot of people ain't believe in me when I. 0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:52.480 Was making that video, and you know, it's just it's 0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:55.560 a blessing to be where I am today. I remember 0:01:55.600 --> 0:01:59.640 I was at a football camp and the DC from Michigan. 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:02.680 I'm like, man, what I got to do to get 0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:03.640 offer from Michigan? 0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:07.160 He was like and we don't really be we don't 0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:11.120 really like lanky corners, we don't really like longer corners. 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.480 And it was I forgot his name. I forgot his name. 0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:17.200 I can't remember his name, but he was. 0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:19.320 He probably ain't there no more. Yeah he was. He's 0:02:19.320 --> 0:02:19.919 not there no more. 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:22.239 He was in DC when I was like in tenth grade, 0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:23.519 you know what I'm saying. 0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:25.919 And you know it was, it was. It was kind 0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:26.679 of crazy, man. 0:02:27.560 --> 0:02:29.960 All of that was just motivation hit to keep me 0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:32.000 going and to push me to get where I are 0:02:32.040 --> 0:02:32.440 in today. 0:02:32.560 --> 0:02:35.080 You know, yeah, I mean we all need the chip 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:36.799 on the shoulder. And you know I was the same 0:02:36.840 --> 0:02:38.240 way when I was coming out, you know what I mean, 0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:40.000 just a skinny kid. I might have been one hundred 0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:44.000 and forty pounds, soaking wet, like my sophomore year, six ' three, 0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:45.240 super uncoordinated. 0:02:45.639 --> 0:02:45.880 Uh. 0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:47.639 You know, I got a little better as it got older, 0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:49.440 because I went from like five seven like you were 0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:51.600 your freshman year. Yeah, So I was that in the 0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:53.560 eighth grade and then by ninth grade, I was like 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:56.120 six two and a half and then so you had 0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:58.200 your gross spurt in tenth grade, I'm guessing. 0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:00.200 Uh, yeah, it was the end of tenth grade into 0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:00.760 tenth grade. 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.000 Talk about how that was because I was super uncoordinated 0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:05.880 when it happened. It was like it happened so fast, 0:03:05.880 --> 0:03:07.600 and you like, all of a sudden got these long 0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:10.280 strides and you're like, bro, what happened to my little body? 0:03:10.639 --> 0:03:13.520 Yeah? Man, it was kind of weird, man, Like my 0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:15.240 torso took a little minute to grow. 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:18.559 So it's like my legs and my arms was just getting. 0:03:18.280 --> 0:03:21.560 Longer, and it's like my torso stayed real small, Like 0:03:21.560 --> 0:03:23.200 I was like I was supposed to be an NBA 0:03:23.320 --> 0:03:25.840 or something. So it's kind of weird. Like my running 0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:28.880 for was changing. I was looking a little ugly. I'm like, bro, 0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:31.519 what's going on with me? It's a a minute to 0:03:31.560 --> 0:03:33.880 get used to, man. But I just remember I used 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.240 to pray every night, like God, please let me hit 0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.880 a gross purt please. This is when I was playing receiver, 0:03:38.960 --> 0:03:41.560 because like that's what I wanted to do. But they're like, man, 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:44.320 you're not gonna be able to play receiver. Too short? 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:48.440 Maybe slide what about corner? They're like, nah, I don't 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:51.200 know about that. Like, you know, the game is evolving 0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:53.240 a little bit more. You at least got to be 0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:56.480 like five ten, five eleven. I'm like, bro, like this, 0:03:56.720 --> 0:03:59.000 this just not working for me, you know, so right, 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:01.000 no guy, my first. 0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:01.800 No question. 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.520 He did, and all of it probably helped you, you 0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:07.440 know what I mean, because you did get some receiver experience, 0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:09.160 and you know what I mean, I think that's what 0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:11.920 helps us. All is at least helped me is playing 0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:14.120 receiver for so long, just being able to see the ball, 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:17.080 catch it, recognize the angles and the trajectory and all 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:20.240 that nonsense, and just knowing how to high point it 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:22.120 and all that good stuff helped me a lot. 0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:23.719 Yeah, yeah, I agree. Man. 0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:26.800 So when did you make the decision to officially like 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:28.719 I'm playing corner the rest of the rest of the time. 0:04:29.160 --> 0:04:31.719 Man, Actually, it wasn't really even my decision to make. 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:35.560 I went to King High School, Detroit King High School, 0:04:35.600 --> 0:04:39.479 and we was playing against our our rivals cast Take. 0:04:40.320 --> 0:04:41.839 You know. It's it's some people that went to cast 0:04:41.880 --> 0:04:43.600 Take that you might know. If Donovan Peoples. 0:04:43.400 --> 0:04:47.000 Jones, he played receiver, he went there, you know, Jordan 0:04:47.080 --> 0:04:50.800 Lewis went there, you know, and our corner, the receiver 0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:53.280 ended up running like a glance route. Our corner ran 0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:56.280 into our safety. Our safety got up, he was fine. 0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:58.800 Our corner he broke his jaw, so he couldn't go 0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.039 in there, and I would isn't even a backup corner. 0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:02.720 But they didn't trust in the backup that we had, 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.080 and they're like, it's somebody that we can trust, like 0:05:05.480 --> 0:05:07.800 even though he probably don't got the experience like that, 0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:09.800 could just go in there and just you know, make 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:10.520 some plays. 0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:11.080 You know. 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:13.400 They threw me in there, and mind you this is 0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:16.479 I'm going to get people who four star guys, you know, 0:05:16.640 --> 0:05:19.320 strapping them. I'm like, maybe I can do this. And 0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:22.799 this was right before we started our playoff run, and 0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:25.000 they told me like, yeah, you're gonna be starting for 0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:27.520 the rest of the playoffs. 0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:28.000 You know. 0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:31.279 That's that's what happened. Like I feel like my whole 0:05:31.360 --> 0:05:34.320 life and why I am where I am today is 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:38.000 based on me just making the most out of opportunities. 0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:38.320 You know. 0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:40.799 That's what happened in high school that I got to college. 0:05:40.880 --> 0:05:44.760 I get to college, I'm like six strength, six string cornerback. 0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:47.800 You know, I'm sitting in the back of the classrooms, 0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:53.320 six string quarterback, not really playing. And I remember we 0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:58.520 had to go against UCS. They had guys like Gabriel Davis, 0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:03.000 Trey Nixon. They had some guys and you always was 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:04.680 known for their hurry up. They have one of the 0:06:04.720 --> 0:06:08.640 receivers run a go ball and then sell him out 0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:10.599 and have another one come do the same thing, and 0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:12.880 it's like, if you at corner, you probably gonna get beat. 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:14.760 So I remember at the beginning of the week, like 0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:18.320 everybody's gonna have to play. You know, uh Ama, you 0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:20.080 even gonna have to play. This is before they even 0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:22.080 calling me sauce. Like my coach is not calling me sauce. 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:25.080 They amas, you probably even gonna have to play. They 0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:28.640 put me in there, they run they run a sit 0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:31.200 route because it was real basic offense room. Then man, 0:06:31.200 --> 0:06:32.719 if you're playing on top, they're gonna sit it down. 0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:36.000 I'm in cover three. I'm in cover three, and this 0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:37.720 is like not a match Cover three. 0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:39.000 We need to be bailing. 0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.400 But I'm like, bro, I was watching film, Like he 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:43.120 told me you gonna play. He tells me I'm a place, 0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:45.360 So I'm watching film all week. I'm like, all right, bet, 0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:46.880 this is the play that I'm gonna make. 0:06:47.440 --> 0:06:49.000 Man. I act like I was bailing soon as he 0:06:49.080 --> 0:06:53.680 set it down. Picked at six. Yeah, and that's when 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:55.640 that's when everything started. You know what I'm saying. 0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:59.880 That's real, bro that because people don't understand the like balls, 0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:02.359 you gotta have to really like watch the tape, but 0:07:02.400 --> 0:07:04.400 then go out there and do what you what you're 0:07:04.440 --> 0:07:07.039 thinking you can do exactly like it's one thing to 0:07:07.080 --> 0:07:09.120 watch it and be like, man, I can make this play. 0:07:09.160 --> 0:07:10.840 I can make this play. I can try this dig 0:07:10.880 --> 0:07:12.280 I can do this. But then you get out there 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:14.120 and bullets start flying and you're like, oh, well, I 0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:15.840 don't want to. I don't want them to double move 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:18.240 or I don't want them to you mean, like you 0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:19.640 shot your gun young. 0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:22.680 Yeah, young man, I could have I could have liked that. 0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:25.120 The average person who going there young like, man, this 0:07:25.200 --> 0:07:26.800 is my first time. I don't know if I'm play 0:07:26.800 --> 0:07:29.360 again and I messed up. Let me just do my job, coach, 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:32.080 let me just you know. But you know, I always 0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:33.840 I had a good camp. I had a good camp 0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:36.400 my fresh year. So I'm like, I'm gonna show them that, 0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:39.080 you know, I'm not just a freshman, any old freshman. 0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:41.600 I'm gonna show them like I was. I was supposed 0:07:41.640 --> 0:07:43.800 to be here. You know, I shot my gun and 0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:46.040 you know I was started it all. 0:07:46.600 --> 0:07:48.240 Bro. Bro, that's mindset. 0:07:48.520 --> 0:07:51.520 That's really that's a really cool mindset because that's what 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:53.400 makes you special, you know what I mean? And that's 0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:55.720 in every aspect because that applies to everything. 0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:56.120 You know. 0:07:56.480 --> 0:07:58.840 There are so many people there corner corners in the 0:07:58.880 --> 0:08:01.600 league right now that watch tape and see stuff that 0:08:01.600 --> 0:08:03.200 they can make a play on. But in the back 0:08:03.240 --> 0:08:05.480 of their mind they're like, but what if and you 0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:06.640 don't play that what if game? 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:09.560 You're like, go get it. Yeah, I tried not to 0:08:09.560 --> 0:08:10.520 play that with have game. 0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:13.760 I'd be lying if I said I didn't didn't at times, 0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:16.880 Like I remember, We're just playing against Minnesota, and I 0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:20.000 kept second guessing a little bit because they. 0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:21.960 OC is nice. He's nice. 0:08:22.840 --> 0:08:25.760 He is probably like one of the best OC's that 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:27.520 I've ever played against, like ever. 0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:29.480 So like I'm gonna watch. 0:08:29.640 --> 0:08:31.640 I watched them and I'm like, Bro, they have the 0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:35.319 same exact stems, the same exact everything, and they're running the. 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:36.040 Opposite rode off of it. 0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:39.160 Also, they'll literally have a void from two and they'll 0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:40.480 make you think it's a dig and have a dig 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:42.560 and go off of it a boy from two and 0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:44.640 actually run a dig, they have a void from two 0:08:44.679 --> 0:08:45.959 stem in and run an out route. 0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:46.560 You know. 0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:51.120 So I'm like, bro, they really like he's nice. That's 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:53.360 probably one of the only games this year where I 0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:56.600 was like, I was sticking, like, bro, do I really 0:08:56.640 --> 0:08:57.960 want to gamble against him? 0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:01.240 And then they o see they see the head coach 0:09:01.360 --> 0:09:02.439 right right, come on. 0:09:03.080 --> 0:09:04.720 So I'm looking on the side and I just see 0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:07.200 his face. He got that face like he played quarterbacks. 0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:09.920 So you know, I'm thinking, like, all right, he looking 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.280 to lax, like what's going on? Like what's about to 0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:13.720 have been here? You know what I'm saying. 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:14.560 It was. 0:09:14.679 --> 0:09:17.320 It was kind of crazy, man, But yeah, gotta get it. 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:18.840 You gotta get him his flowers. 0:09:18.880 --> 0:09:20.840 You know. Yeah, he's one of the best out there 0:09:20.920 --> 0:09:24.040 right now, and he's he drawing him up like everybody's 0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:26.640 you know, Kyle Shanahan McVay. They all doing them spray 0:09:26.679 --> 0:09:30.160 releases offs a condensed split. And so when they get 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:33.160 those spray releases. I started to when I was young. 0:09:33.320 --> 0:09:35.480 I just pressed everything and I ended all that shit 0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:37.480 and and then I just have to just fight in 0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:38.880 the run game, you know what I mean, Because sometimes 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.640 they cracked and they get they get outside and so 0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:46.360 I just have to react quick. And you know, every 0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:48.200 now and then they get me. But for the most part, 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:50.120 the past game was dead, you know what I mean. 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:52.240 So if it's if it's third and something, or if 0:09:52.280 --> 0:09:55.040 it's second and long or something, I'm up there. I'm like, hey, 0:09:55.040 --> 0:09:56.960 I'm about to dead all this ship, and y'all gonna 0:09:57.000 --> 0:09:58.720 have to show me that y'all can get to the 0:09:58.840 --> 0:10:02.920 edge in this past game. And as I got older, 0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:05.080 we had to start peddling. I still, you know, I mean, 0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:06.560 I don't like the pedal. I like to butt to 0:10:06.559 --> 0:10:09.720 the sideline everything. Yeah, And so I would I would 0:10:09.720 --> 0:10:14.880 back up like like two yards outside, probably like eight 0:10:14.960 --> 0:10:17.520 yards deep, butt to the sideline, and I would I 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:20.480 would shuffle, id shuffle for two steps as they stem 0:10:20.800 --> 0:10:23.000 and I I, damn there be at like an angle 0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:24.800 so that I could break for the post or I 0:10:24.840 --> 0:10:27.160 could break for that out and you know what I mean, 0:10:27.200 --> 0:10:28.760 I settle down on that curl. 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.640 But that messes the problem. 0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:35.800 The NFL season is rolling along and contenders are separating 0:10:35.840 --> 0:10:38.400 from the pack.

You know, we had big red 0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:48.280 and we used to play this sixth technique. Then Cliff 0:13:48.320 --> 0:13:50.240 came in. He wanted to be in a nine and 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:52.440 he would always I would always say, man, you're making 0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:54.720 me get in the sea gap now, like just no, 0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:56.760 you got to close it.

They caught 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:21.080 it up exactly, They picked it up. 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:21.280 Man. 0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:23.080 So just to be able to see him out there 0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:26.040 having fun, man celebrating. You know, that's a blessing to see. 0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:28.600 Yeah, you got to pick against Atlanta. I think that 0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:30.920 was his first one. Yeah, I had to. I gotta 0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:32.840 go talk to him because you can't slide on picks. 0:17:32.880 --> 0:17:34.440 I'm like, well it's too hard to get him. 0:17:34.440 --> 0:17:35.600 I'm running faver. 0:17:35.920 --> 0:17:37.680 You look, you look at all my picks. Boy, I'm 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:40.080 cutting across the field. I'm making this play last as 0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:40.840 long as I can. 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:43.600 Exactly exactly. I didn't even know he slid on that. 0:17:43.960 --> 0:17:45.119 I just see him posted. 0:17:45.160 --> 0:17:48.760 I just seen him the picture him catching it. 0:17:48.880 --> 0:17:51.200 They ran a couple of yards and then, like you can, 0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:56.840 then slid and I was like, no, yeah, triping, But 0:17:56.960 --> 0:17:59.159 talk to me about getting drafted. And as high as 0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:01.000 you got drafted, was that where you wanted to go? 0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:04.040 Is that where you expected? Because I mean it's a 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:06.080 short list of corners that they went top four. 0:18:06.600 --> 0:18:09.320 You know, I really thought that New York was where 0:18:09.320 --> 0:18:11.320 I was going to end up. You know, I love 0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:15.440 their coaching staff. You know, Houston, the official there, the 0:18:15.920 --> 0:18:19.480 thirty visitor was smooth. I feel like they scheme wasn't 0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:23.240 really for me. Right when they had that coaching staff 0:18:23.280 --> 0:18:26.280 Obviously they got a different coaching staff. Now that's similar 0:18:26.280 --> 0:18:28.119 to the scheme that we played in New York, you know. 0:18:29.800 --> 0:18:31.960 You know, so when I got when the Jets called 0:18:31.960 --> 0:18:34.040 me Bro, it was just it was a blessing. Man, 0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:35.800 it was a blessing. That's where I wanted it to be. 0:18:36.600 --> 0:18:39.760 Obviously I got the name SAW, so my marketing people 0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:41.639 was already they were like, oh, yes, yes, you know 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:42.280 what I'm saying. 0:18:42.720 --> 0:18:45.480 But with a football perspective, you know, because that's the 0:18:45.520 --> 0:18:46.000 main thing. 0:18:46.040 --> 0:18:47.960 You know, I was blessed to be able to, you know, 0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:50.879 come to New York, and you know, I'm still blessed 0:18:50.880 --> 0:18:53.359 to be able to be playing well. 0:18:53.200 --> 0:18:54.440 Tell telling people some stuff. 0:18:54.440 --> 0:18:55.879 They know, you know what I mean, because you know, 0:18:56.600 --> 0:18:59.159 you know, New York market is crazy, the media is crazy, 0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:01.600 as you've experience for the last two years, the good 0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:05.120 and the bad. Talk about how how this journey has 0:19:05.119 --> 0:19:07.680 affected you, your family, you know what I mean, who 0:19:07.720 --> 0:19:09.960 you brought with you, you know what I mean, Like, 0:19:10.760 --> 0:19:12.960 I know this has been a blessing for your family, 0:19:13.000 --> 0:19:15.119 But just talk about how the impact that you've been 0:19:15.160 --> 0:19:15.600 able to have. 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:18.439 Man, it's a blessing. Man. 0:19:20.040 --> 0:19:22.800 The area I come from, I think it's the most 0:19:22.840 --> 0:19:24.479 dangerous part of Detroit, you know. 0:19:24.600 --> 0:19:26.320 So for me to be able to. 0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:29.359 Just move my my mom out the hood, you know, 0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:31.240 and the stuff that I've seen growing up is like 0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:34.239 stuff that a lot of people my age during that 0:19:34.240 --> 0:19:37.600 time wouldn't have seen. So it's just all things that 0:19:37.640 --> 0:19:41.520 motivate me and all things that I consider my why so, 0:19:41.680 --> 0:19:44.359 just to be able to move my immediate family out 0:19:44.400 --> 0:19:46.840 of the hood and stop all the stuff that they 0:19:46.920 --> 0:19:49.239 was going through, you know, it's a blessing. And to 0:19:49.240 --> 0:19:50.959 be able to come to New York, you know, it's 0:19:50.960 --> 0:19:54.040 a blessing because the fan base they've welcomed. 0:19:53.680 --> 0:19:55.000 Me with Oprah arms. 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:57.320 Obviously it's gonna be some good and it's some bad, 0:19:57.440 --> 0:20:00.600 especially like and I mean it's an the most humble 0:20:00.680 --> 0:20:02.720 way is possible, you know, especially when you coming in 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:05.400 the league and you have as much success that I've 0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:06.760 had in New York. 0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:09.560 You know, I feel like people be waiting to see 0:20:09.560 --> 0:20:11.080 you not have your best game. 0:20:11.480 --> 0:20:15.240 So what I've learned is like, obviously every game that 0:20:15.240 --> 0:20:17.439 I play is not going to be the greatest, you know, 0:20:17.520 --> 0:20:21.240 but I don't think I really have like horrible, horrible games. 0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:25.040 It'd be like all right, cool, I played decent this game, 0:20:25.400 --> 0:20:27.879 But my decent games they look at it is like 0:20:27.920 --> 0:20:31.040 I played horrible, right, But if it's somebody that's not 0:20:31.119 --> 0:20:33.880 in the New York market, it's like my decent game 0:20:33.920 --> 0:20:36.399 would be like a pretty good game for the person 0:20:36.440 --> 0:20:38.560 who's not in the New York market, you know. So 0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:42.640 that's what this year has made me understand, because obviously, 0:20:42.680 --> 0:20:45.080 if we were winning, it wouldn't be a huge deal. 0:20:45.560 --> 0:20:48.800 But you got when we're not winning as much, you know, 0:20:48.880 --> 0:20:52.320 it's an extra emphasis on everybody, you know, especially when 0:20:52.359 --> 0:20:55.360 you have these diehard Jets fans who were like they've 0:20:55.359 --> 0:20:57.200 been waiting for us to make the playoffs for the longest, 0:20:57.200 --> 0:20:58.640 They've been waiting for us to win the super Bowl 0:20:58.680 --> 0:21:01.840 for the longest. So I understand, you know, I understand 0:21:01.840 --> 0:21:04.280 where it all comes from. 0:21:03.520 --> 0:21:03.760 You know. 0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:08.440 And yeah, yeah, I mean, look, if anybody feels you 0:21:08.440 --> 0:21:10.080 you know, I wasn't in a New York market, but 0:21:10.119 --> 0:21:12.840 I had a lot of spotlight on me and our team, 0:21:12.920 --> 0:21:15.600 you know, because the success we had and leading the boom, 0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:17.080 and I just talked the most shit, you know what 0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:20.600 I mean, I'm talking cash out there, like I'm not 0:21:20.680 --> 0:21:22.720 really feeling all this nonsense they talking about. 0:21:23.040 --> 0:21:25.840 And so you know, every game they want you to fail. 0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:28.560 I god, damn, have an eight pick season my second 0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:31.040 year I'm all pro. They tell me I'm a bum. 0:21:31.240 --> 0:21:34.160 I'm like, I got eight books. I didn't shut down 0:21:34.200 --> 0:21:36.480 everybody y'all put in front of me. And y'all then 0:21:36.480 --> 0:21:38.440 the next year, I lead the league in picks, another 0:21:38.480 --> 0:21:41.320 eight picks, We win the Super Bowl, number one defense 0:21:41.359 --> 0:21:43.240 in the world, up for Defensive Player of the Year. 0:21:43.560 --> 0:21:47.479 They still talking, he's slow. It's the scheme. It's this, 0:21:47.880 --> 0:21:50.600 I said, Why ain't nobody else getting eight books in 0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:54.680 the scheme? Exactly why there's so many people running this scheme. 0:21:54.720 --> 0:21:56.800 It ain't nobody else having it's kind of success. Maybe 0:21:56.840 --> 0:21:59.080 I'm one of them. And then the next year, you know, 0:21:59.240 --> 0:22:01.200 all Pro, and they're still you know what I mean. 0:22:01.200 --> 0:22:02.720 So after a while you got to sit there and 0:22:02.760 --> 0:22:04.680 be like, man, maybe people just want to hate. 0:22:05.080 --> 0:22:06.240 Yeah, yeh. 0:22:07.320 --> 0:22:09.199 They look for you to have one bad play if 0:22:09.240 --> 0:22:10.800 I give up a catch. I gave up a slant 0:22:10.800 --> 0:22:13.000 one time to Keenan Allen. I never forget it. It 0:22:13.080 --> 0:22:17.000 was the twenty fourteen twenty fifteen season, and I mean, 0:22:17.040 --> 0:22:19.359 when I tell you, it was plastered all over ESPN. 0:22:19.400 --> 0:22:21.719 This is a slant and I'm dead tired. It's one 0:22:21.800 --> 0:22:24.440 hundred and twenty. It's like the twelfth player to drive. 0:22:24.640 --> 0:22:27.600 I'm dead out there. I ain't gonna lie. And it's 0:22:27.640 --> 0:22:29.640 like he just came off the sideline. I just ran 0:22:29.720 --> 0:22:33.440 a gold round. I'm like breathing, and so he outside 0:22:33.480 --> 0:22:35.680 released me. So you know, I go for the fade 0:22:35.720 --> 0:22:37.960 and then he's running slant. I just head whip it 0:22:38.000 --> 0:22:39.280 and I'm just like get him to the ground, like 0:22:39.320 --> 0:22:43.360 I'm tired. You know, hey boy, they got that plastered everywhere. 0:22:43.400 --> 0:22:47.240 He's exposed, like they exposed and they finally showed everybody 0:22:47.320 --> 0:22:47.880 he can't play. 0:22:47.920 --> 0:22:51.040 I said a slant. Yeah, Like y'all got to be 0:22:51.119 --> 0:22:52.240 getting me. Man. 0:22:52.320 --> 0:22:54.800 I feel like I think that they don't know what 0:22:54.920 --> 0:22:56.800 we like, what it took for us to get there, 0:22:57.160 --> 0:22:59.399 you know. So it's like they don't understand and you 0:22:59.440 --> 0:23:02.120 have to think about the whole other side where it's 0:23:02.119 --> 0:23:05.119 like people really betting on the games, so it's like 0:23:05.520 --> 0:23:07.760 a lot of the anger be from that, you know. 0:23:08.160 --> 0:23:10.320 So it took me a minute the process, Like, bro, 0:23:10.960 --> 0:23:12.639 I mean I get I just missed the tackle that 0:23:12.680 --> 0:23:15.960 went for like five six yards, but like this. 0:23:15.920 --> 0:23:18.359 Is the end of the world, Like what do we like, 0:23:18.359 --> 0:23:19.960 what are we doing? I play corner. 0:23:20.800 --> 0:23:23.000 I'm not saying corners only need to cover because I 0:23:23.040 --> 0:23:25.439 used to say that a lot corners covered, but like 0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:28.159 a complete corner is the best corner thousand percent. 0:23:28.600 --> 0:23:31.240 But as a corner, matter of fact, not even just 0:23:31.240 --> 0:23:31.600 a corner. 0:23:31.640 --> 0:23:34.320 As a defender, you gonna misscackles every now and then 0:23:35.080 --> 0:23:36.880 you go, that's just what That's just what it is, 0:23:37.240 --> 0:23:41.280 you know what I'm saying. Back linebackers, d lineman, corner safeties, 0:23:41.359 --> 0:23:43.760 everybody gonn miss tacles that you know at some point, 0:23:44.119 --> 0:23:46.600 you know, so that is what it is. But you know, 0:23:46.720 --> 0:23:49.560 sometimes I feel like they think we robots, like you 0:23:49.560 --> 0:23:50.560 know what I'm saying. 0:23:50.440 --> 0:23:51.760 And you're totally right. 0:23:51.800 --> 0:23:55.640 They have unrealistic expectations, like there are miss tackles where 0:23:55.640 --> 0:23:58.600 you're like, man, I'm but one thing I'll say is 0:23:58.680 --> 0:24:01.119 like y'all don't care more than we can, you know what. 0:24:01.119 --> 0:24:03.480 I mean, Like they don't care more than you care. Bro, 0:24:03.600 --> 0:24:04.919 I had a tackle I had to tackle. 0:24:05.280 --> 0:24:07.320 I had to tackle that I missed against the Texans, 0:24:07.480 --> 0:24:08.600 they threw the flat route. 0:24:09.080 --> 0:24:09.720 I'll go low. 0:24:10.320 --> 0:24:12.399 Quincy bumping to me because he's going for the tackle 0:24:12.440 --> 0:24:15.040 as well. So I bounced off of him and I 0:24:15.119 --> 0:24:18.800 bounce off my shorts. They say I watched a TV copy. 0:24:18.800 --> 0:24:20.680 It's like, yeah, man, this is something that they're saying 0:24:20.680 --> 0:24:23.320 that he has to improve. Obviously, I want to improve 0:24:23.359 --> 0:24:28.000 in everything. But it wasn't like I just ran up 0:24:28.000 --> 0:24:29.920 to him and just missed the tackle. You know what 0:24:29.960 --> 0:24:32.360 I'm saying. It's just, yeah, it's just stuff like that. 0:24:32.560 --> 0:24:34.879 I don't really pay attention to it no more. But 0:24:35.480 --> 0:24:37.000 it's just stuff like that where it's like, what are 0:24:37.000 --> 0:24:38.760 we What are we talking about? 0:24:39.000 --> 0:24:41.160 It's just something to talk about, Like they gonna pick 0:24:41.200 --> 0:24:44.680 your game part, They're gonna, they're gonna. They always kept saying, 0:24:44.760 --> 0:24:46.719 you know what I mean, even when I'm having crazy 0:24:46.720 --> 0:24:49.159 two sets, They're like, yeah, but he's slow. I'm like, 0:24:49.400 --> 0:24:51.880 y'all really think I'm out here picking every goal route 0:24:51.920 --> 0:24:54.760 that's out there, and I'm slow, like y'all, y'all, like 0:24:54.840 --> 0:24:57.160 y'all gotta be on drug. Y'all think the receiver running 0:24:57.200 --> 0:24:59.440 four three and I'm just out here running four six 0:24:59.520 --> 0:25:01.879 and I'm just the same speed as him going up 0:25:01.920 --> 0:25:06.399 catch the ball, bringing it down and it just be nonsense. 0:25:06.520 --> 0:25:09.679 And so you gotta understand. You got to keep the 0:25:09.720 --> 0:25:11.200 main thing the main thing, you know what I mean, 0:25:11.440 --> 0:25:14.560 get better with what you can, get better at, work 0:25:14.560 --> 0:25:18.120 on your craft, and keep just challenging yourself because nobody 0:25:18.160 --> 0:25:20.480 wants it better than more than you. Nobody has higher 0:25:20.480 --> 0:25:22.119 expectations for yourself than you do. 0:25:22.680 --> 0:25:24.320 And Bro, it had been, it had been days where 0:25:24.320 --> 0:25:25.080 I couldn't sleep. 0:25:25.560 --> 0:25:27.879 I'm giving up a twenty yard past and that's my 0:25:27.960 --> 0:25:30.320 only completion and that's my only reception of the. 0:25:30.320 --> 0:25:32.720 Day allowed on me. Bro, Just like, Bro, I really 0:25:32.720 --> 0:25:34.920 could I could have. I really should have. 0:25:35.640 --> 0:25:39.480 I'm my biggest credit. Y'all don't gotta Hey, I wanted 0:25:40.000 --> 0:25:42.280 I wanted the baddest. My coach don't want it more 0:25:42.320 --> 0:25:44.360 than me. Y'all don't want to. So just like you said, Bro, 0:25:44.640 --> 0:25:47.280 like I'll really be having them days where it's like, Bro, 0:25:47.359 --> 0:25:50.119 I'm over I over critique myself, you know what I'm mean? 0:25:50.640 --> 0:25:52.080 That's just right I am. 0:25:52.440 --> 0:25:56.520 And And they sometimes let the results like dictate they feelings, 0:25:56.520 --> 0:25:59.040 like like when I'm playing well, I'm preparing well. When 0:25:59.080 --> 0:26:01.720 I didn't play well, still prepared well. I guarantee you 0:26:01.800 --> 0:26:03.480 I still put the time in, put the work in, 0:26:03.600 --> 0:26:06.040 put the energy in. I gave it everything I had. 0:26:06.160 --> 0:26:08.359 They just had a better day than me. That happens. 0:26:08.359 --> 0:26:11.239 I'm a human being, Like I might have stumbled on this, 0:26:11.280 --> 0:26:13.159 I might have saw something different than what it was, 0:26:13.400 --> 0:26:15.320 but I guarantee you, I still put the work in 0:26:15.440 --> 0:26:17.640 to get there. You're like, it's gonna work out for you. 0:26:17.640 --> 0:26:19.680 You stay with that formula, brother, it's gonna work out 0:26:19.680 --> 0:26:21.440 exactly like it's opposed to. And it's gonna work out 0:26:21.440 --> 0:26:24.200 like that for the team. Sometimes it's just being able 0:26:24.200 --> 0:26:27.879 to have that mindset and allow other people around you 0:26:27.960 --> 0:26:31.920 to elevate too. It's hard because we play corner, so 0:26:32.000 --> 0:26:34.720 corner is such an individual. Like I'm in this world, 0:26:35.920 --> 0:26:38.040 y'all don't understand. I got a lot of space and 0:26:38.080 --> 0:26:39.640 a lot of great athletes I gotta. 0:26:39.480 --> 0:26:41.080 Deal with all day exactly. 0:26:44.200 --> 0:26:46.639 But in order to be a great defense and a 0:26:46.640 --> 0:26:48.439 great team, and y'all have been a great defense. But 0:26:48.560 --> 0:26:50.880 since you've been there, you know, with Salah, and we're 0:26:50.880 --> 0:26:53.600 gonna talk about Salah in a little while, but you 0:26:53.800 --> 0:26:55.879 just got to keep encouraging each other. And it's a 0:26:55.920 --> 0:26:58.159 lot of what Davante's talking about when he came in. 0:26:58.320 --> 0:26:58.760 You know what I mean. 0:26:58.840 --> 0:27:01.840 That's when in culture it's about celebrating. Like if you 0:27:01.920 --> 0:27:05.800 start practices, you think we were crazed dogs and we 0:27:05.920 --> 0:27:08.160 on the sideline. You you sitting there looking at all 0:27:08.160 --> 0:27:10.959 pros on the sideline getting super hyped for this practice. 0:27:11.000 --> 0:27:14.359 Squad kid make batting the past down and you're like, bro, 0:27:14.480 --> 0:27:16.520 who's this day getting excited for? Is he been gonna 0:27:16.560 --> 0:27:18.480 make the team? It's like, it ain't about him making 0:27:18.520 --> 0:27:21.960 the team. It's about us celebrating everybody's success. Like I 0:27:22.080 --> 0:27:24.879 care about him winning. We worked hard, he in the 0:27:24.960 --> 0:27:27.040 film room, we in a film room winning. We see 0:27:27.040 --> 0:27:29.560 how how hard he working, how much better he's gotten, 0:27:29.720 --> 0:27:31.679 and we want him to show, want to show how 0:27:31.760 --> 0:27:34.080 much we care that he's out there putting the work 0:27:34.119 --> 0:27:36.800 and he's having success. And when you do that on 0:27:36.840 --> 0:27:40.160 a big scheme, everybody feels like they matter. Everybody's putting 0:27:40.200 --> 0:27:42.520 in the work. So then everybody wants to say put 0:27:42.560 --> 0:27:44.159 the same effort in that you're putting in. 0:27:44.600 --> 0:27:47.120 Yeah, yeah, I feel that. Sure. 0:27:47.880 --> 0:27:50.280 Yeah, But talk to me about Salad because you you 0:27:50.359 --> 0:27:52.960 talked about playing for Salah and obviously you've been playing 0:27:52.960 --> 0:27:54.920 for Brick the whole year and and you know he's 0:27:54.960 --> 0:27:55.840 been your coordinator. 0:27:56.160 --> 0:27:58.719 That move just seemed crazy. I talked to DJ about it. 0:27:58.760 --> 0:28:01.199 He seemed to be like, call off guard by it, 0:28:01.320 --> 0:28:04.040 and just you know, it just was unexpected, not you know, 0:28:04.119 --> 0:28:06.320 you guys don't have any control over what happens and 0:28:06.600 --> 0:28:09.159 who gets hired and fired, but talk about your mindset. 0:28:09.200 --> 0:28:10.480 When that happened and I. 0:28:10.480 --> 0:28:13.280 Was shot, you know, I wasn't on Twitter, uh during 0:28:13.320 --> 0:28:15.840 that time. So my agent just text me. He was like, 0:28:15.880 --> 0:28:18.520 how you feel about the news, And I didn't even 0:28:18.520 --> 0:28:21.199 know what he was talking about. I just asked him, like, 0:28:21.359 --> 0:28:24.000 is it bad bad news? Like or is it just 0:28:24.080 --> 0:28:26.800 bad news? It's like bad bad news. And I just 0:28:26.840 --> 0:28:29.720 typed in the New York Jets and that's all I 0:28:29.720 --> 0:28:32.320 could see. That's all I could see on Google Bro. 0:28:32.440 --> 0:28:35.040 So I'm like, man, it's crazy. Wouldn't expecting it because 0:28:35.320 --> 0:28:37.720 our record wasn't even that bad at the time, you 0:28:37.800 --> 0:28:39.280 know what I'm saying. I don't remember what it was, 0:28:39.360 --> 0:28:42.480 but it wasn't and three. Yeah, it was two and three, 0:28:42.560 --> 0:28:44.880 So you know, it kind of kind of caught me 0:28:44.960 --> 0:28:45.360 off guard. 0:28:46.080 --> 0:28:46.240 You know. 0:28:46.280 --> 0:28:47.800 I remember I text him, told him I love him, 0:28:47.800 --> 0:28:49.880 and I appreciate him because he he really was a 0:28:49.960 --> 0:28:52.240 huge reason why my family life shames, you know. 0:28:53.160 --> 0:28:56.000 So you know, we still talk. You know. He called 0:28:56.000 --> 0:28:58.800 me the other the other which was it like a 0:28:58.840 --> 0:29:01.200 week ago, a week some change ago, and was like, hey, 0:29:01.240 --> 0:29:03.240 make sure y'all out there having fun. Man, I see 0:29:03.320 --> 0:29:04.960 all of Hey. 0:29:05.280 --> 0:29:07.440 It looks like y'all not having as much fun right now. 0:29:07.480 --> 0:29:10.240 Make sure y'all celebrating everything. I'm like, you're right, coach, 0:29:10.520 --> 0:29:12.280 you know, And it starts with me. Let me make 0:29:12.320 --> 0:29:14.560 sure I'm not making this just feel like a job. 0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:16.680 Let me make sure that I'm treating this like it's 0:29:16.720 --> 0:29:18.600 my passion, because it's really what it is is this 0:29:18.720 --> 0:29:21.760 is my life. And you know, I addressed that with 0:29:21.800 --> 0:29:24.320 the defense, and you know, I feel like we all 0:29:24.360 --> 0:29:26.520 took them to it's a matter. 0:29:27.960 --> 0:29:28.160 Yeah. 0:29:28.560 --> 0:29:30.360 I mean, I respect that he wants he still wants 0:29:30.440 --> 0:29:32.200 y'all team to do well, you know, And that's all 0:29:32.240 --> 0:29:33.720 he keeps when I talk to him. He's like, bro, 0:29:33.800 --> 0:29:35.440 I want him to make the playoffs. I want I 0:29:35.520 --> 0:29:37.720 want to see my guys have success. They earned it, 0:29:37.840 --> 0:29:40.400 they deserve it, you know. And and that's hard, you 0:29:40.440 --> 0:29:42.400 know what I mean, because I'm a spiteful kind of dude. 0:29:42.480 --> 0:29:43.960 So you you you know what I mean. And I 0:29:43.960 --> 0:29:44.960 don't think it has anything to. 0:29:44.960 --> 0:29:46.680 Do with y'all, but the owner doing that to me 0:29:46.800 --> 0:29:49.200 as a person personally, i'd be like, man for all that, 0:29:50.160 --> 0:29:52.120 I'm done with all this, you know. But y'alla ain't 0:29:52.160 --> 0:29:54.400 that kind of guy. You know, he's still like he's 0:29:54.480 --> 0:29:57.560 hurt by that. You know, he thinks he should have 0:29:57.600 --> 0:29:59.600 been given an opportunity to have a full you know, 0:29:59.680 --> 0:30:03.479 seven team games with airing at the helm and his guys, 0:30:03.520 --> 0:30:05.040 you know what I mean, let him see that it 0:30:05.080 --> 0:30:07.280 ain't gonna work, or it is gonna work. I think 0:30:07.360 --> 0:30:10.280 y'all still got a great team, just when it comes 0:30:10.320 --> 0:30:14.200 to defense, like even missing tackles, like when you swarm, 0:30:14.320 --> 0:30:19.680 it don't matter, like everybody gets there, then nobody even 0:30:19.720 --> 0:30:21.680 noticed you missed the tackle because the next person hitting 0:30:21.720 --> 0:30:25.280 him up half a second later. And so miss tackles 0:30:25.360 --> 0:30:27.920 only show up when the effort of everybody isn't there. 0:30:27.960 --> 0:30:29.880 And I'm not talking about your staff, monsters, Because it 0:30:29.920 --> 0:30:32.440 looked like Quinn be all over the place like project roaches, 0:30:33.400 --> 0:30:35.600 and so does Quincy and so does CJ when he's 0:30:35.640 --> 0:30:38.840 out there, and the d line. But it has to 0:30:38.960 --> 0:30:42.920 be like habits in practice, Like every single play, we 0:30:43.000 --> 0:30:45.080 only out there three faux plays before they rotate the 0:30:45.160 --> 0:30:47.920 twoes in. So it's like, for three fold plays, can 0:30:48.000 --> 0:30:51.440 everybody get to the ball, Like even backside corner, can 0:30:51.520 --> 0:30:53.479 you just come tag off? Even if you tagging off 0:30:53.560 --> 0:30:55.400 right as he goes into the huddle? Fuck it Like 0:30:55.480 --> 0:30:58.520 it's a mentality. It's a mindset every single time. So 0:30:58.640 --> 0:31:01.600 then when we get out there on game, like it's given, 0:31:01.680 --> 0:31:03.080 like you don't even have a choice. Your body just 0:31:03.120 --> 0:31:05.240 starts going. You're like, man, what my dope, Mama still 0:31:05.280 --> 0:31:08.120 running all the way over there, they already tackling. But 0:31:08.680 --> 0:31:11.400 when it becomes happened, you start running, you start having fun, 0:31:11.480 --> 0:31:13.240 and you start hitting people, and you start like you 0:31:13.320 --> 0:31:15.520 start swarming, and people don't want to go play with you. 0:31:15.960 --> 0:31:18.080 Right right now, I feel like I feel like I 0:31:18.120 --> 0:31:20.320 definitely feel like when you run into the ball, that's 0:31:20.360 --> 0:31:23.080 when it starts like having fun out there, like because 0:31:23.080 --> 0:31:25.720 you sacrificing your energy for the man next to you. 0:31:26.200 --> 0:31:28.600 You know, I'm speaking on behalf of Like if you 0:31:28.720 --> 0:31:31.160 the backside corner, are you gonna make the play? 0:31:31.640 --> 0:31:34.160 Probably not, but you never know. You never know what's happens. 0:31:34.200 --> 0:31:36.120 So you know, that's just one of those things where 0:31:36.120 --> 0:31:38.360 it's like, man, we all got to be swarming. Like 0:31:38.400 --> 0:31:41.640 you said, if everybody swarming, somebody miss a tackle, getting 0:31:41.680 --> 0:31:45.640 cleaned up right right now. But we're like, if it's 0:31:45.760 --> 0:31:48.560 not no effort, then he gonna miss it. If somebody 0:31:48.640 --> 0:31:51.600 miss a tackle gain another team yards, then it's like, 0:31:51.920 --> 0:31:53.360 such a sens has to make that play. 0:31:53.600 --> 0:31:55.080 Such sess has to make that tackle. 0:31:55.400 --> 0:31:57.640 What is he doing when it's so much it's a 0:31:57.680 --> 0:32:01.240 team sport, getting into team, eat off, run it to 0:32:01.320 --> 0:32:03.720 the ball, all of that, all of that, and it 0:32:03.800 --> 0:32:06.520 takes everybody, and a rising tide lifts all ships. 0:32:06.560 --> 0:32:10.160 If everybody's swarming, everybody looks good, everybody, you know what 0:32:10.200 --> 0:32:12.440 I mean, nobody's looking like they're missing tackles. It just 0:32:12.560 --> 0:32:15.280 looks like, damn, this New York just defense is all 0:32:15.320 --> 0:32:17.280 over the place like what has gotten into them? Like 0:32:17.360 --> 0:32:19.719 they craized dogs. And a lot of times that's used 0:32:19.760 --> 0:32:21.239 to be how we work, you know what I mean, 0:32:21.320 --> 0:32:23.600 Because and I give Earl Thomas a lot of credit, 0:32:23.640 --> 0:32:24.480 you know what I mean, we had a lot of 0:32:24.520 --> 0:32:27.080 talent on this defense. But when you talk about practice 0:32:27.880 --> 0:32:30.720 a tone Cetter at practice. That boy is full speed 0:32:31.000 --> 0:32:35.440 and walk through practice. I don't give a damn if 0:32:35.480 --> 0:32:38.360 we in a hotel ballroom like full speed. If you 0:32:38.400 --> 0:32:40.920 don't want even to go full speed, take him out. Yeah, 0:32:41.360 --> 0:32:43.920 And so if he going at that pace, we must 0:32:44.000 --> 0:32:46.120 go at that pace. So it ain't no choice. It 0:32:46.160 --> 0:32:48.040 ain't know, like, man, we're gonna go. So we're gonna 0:32:48.080 --> 0:32:49.920 go this what pace we going today? Ain't nobody ain't 0:32:49.920 --> 0:32:52.160 no question. And then the offense just has to deal 0:32:52.200 --> 0:32:53.920 with what we have to deal with because they're like, 0:32:54.120 --> 0:32:56.120 we already know these boys. Is like, coach, don't put 0:32:56.160 --> 0:32:57.800 the ones against the ones. You already know what these 0:32:57.880 --> 0:32:59.760 dudes are on. Man, just put the tools out there. 0:33:00.120 --> 0:33:02.320 Even feel like dealing with him, Yeah, yeah, now. 0:33:02.280 --> 0:33:05.160 I feel that it's crazy.

So basically, 0:39:34.480 --> 0:39:36.239 if y'all want to get food that y'all can eat 0:39:36.280 --> 0:39:38.400 for a few days, go ahead. If y'all want to 0:39:38.400 --> 0:39:40.520 get some drinks that y'all have with you, but don't 0:39:40.600 --> 0:39:42.160 just get stuff and just leave it on the table. 0:39:42.239 --> 0:39:44.160 Like I don't heard all type of rookie dinners where 0:39:44.200 --> 0:39:45.719 people just get hell and stuff and just leave it 0:39:45.760 --> 0:39:47.200 on the table. They ain't even gonna touch it. But 0:39:48.120 --> 0:39:51.040 with me, it wasn't even events and the players that 0:39:51.120 --> 0:39:54.200 tried to get over on me. It was the restaurant. Oh, 0:39:54.640 --> 0:39:57.680 the restaurant was bringing flashes in for five k apiece 0:39:58.360 --> 0:40:01.640 were just looking like, hold on, I get the bill. 0:40:01.719 --> 0:40:04.719 It's said like twenty some thousands.

It ain't even off the strimp. 0:40:10.920 --> 0:40:13.040 But like y'all like a lot of this and stuff, 0:40:13.080 --> 0:40:15.439 y'all didn't even eat, or a lot of y'all didn't 0:40:15.440 --> 0:40:18.640 even order. Like only one person ordered some food and 0:40:18.719 --> 0:40:20.960 it was Michael Carter. Everybody else is sitting there and 0:40:21.000 --> 0:40:23.319 they just eating it. But they not understanding, like these 0:40:23.360 --> 0:40:24.960 people trying to get over on it. So they see 0:40:24.960 --> 0:40:27.680 the bill, like hold on because they tried to look 0:40:27.760 --> 0:40:29.640 out like they ain't trying to do no right. They 0:40:29.719 --> 0:40:31.520 wasn't trying to kill you. They weren't trying to kill me. 0:40:31.600 --> 0:40:34.880 So I ended up paying. They're like ten you know, 0:40:35.000 --> 0:40:36.920 other people just throwing there like a thousand, just like 0:40:37.000 --> 0:40:39.839 some little calm thousand and we got the bill pay. 0:40:39.960 --> 0:40:42.440 But I said, like, we can't go there no more, 0:40:42.600 --> 0:40:44.640 like no rooge, I wouldn't even want. 0:40:44.560 --> 0:40:47.440 To do that to the like even stick even though 0:40:47.640 --> 0:40:49.840 even though he doing what he doing with the snacks, 0:40:50.719 --> 0:40:50.920 Like we. 0:40:50.960 --> 0:40:53.239 Got to get it in a different way, like yo, 0:40:53.520 --> 0:40:55.480 y'all gotta get it even if we try to get 0:40:55.520 --> 0:40:58.800 over on them and hit them over the head a 0:40:58.840 --> 0:41:00.279 little bit. Us. 0:41:00.440 --> 0:41:07.200 Plus the restaurant, the yeah, don't kidding like that That's 0:41:07.239 --> 0:41:10.160 what I'm saying, man. So you know, we we definitely 0:41:10.200 --> 0:41:14.160 gotta something, gotta give some gotta for sure. Man, every 0:41:14.239 --> 0:41:18.120 rookie dinner we had, we never had. No nobody drafted, hired, 0:41:18.160 --> 0:41:21.680 and then third, I don't think. And then that was 0:41:21.719 --> 0:41:23.520 like my last year, we had a third round pick. 0:41:23.560 --> 0:41:27.000 I think we had Shaq Griffin went third, and anytime 0:41:27.280 --> 0:41:29.520 I just didn't feel right killing them. We just messed 0:41:29.560 --> 0:41:30.960 with him, you know, I mean, we act, we order 0:41:31.000 --> 0:41:34.360 an you know what I mean, all this other nonsense. 0:41:34.400 --> 0:41:36.680 We'll order big steaks, bill will come out to like 0:41:36.800 --> 0:41:39.560 four grand or something. We'll probably play pay half of 0:41:39.680 --> 0:41:41.360 it and let them pay two grand or something. We 0:41:41.400 --> 0:41:45.320 ain't killing them doing crazy. Feel like that's how it 0:41:45.400 --> 0:41:48.160 should be, you know, as long as the rookie doing 0:41:48.200 --> 0:41:49.240 what he's supposed. 0:41:48.880 --> 0:41:52.279 To do, you know, right, have my snacks or or 0:41:53.040 --> 0:41:54.960 get ignorant. If you don't have a snack, then it 0:41:55.000 --> 0:41:59.360 gets different. But also, I want to talk to you 0:41:59.400 --> 0:42:01.640 off these py calls and holding calls. Don't say nothing 0:42:01.680 --> 0:42:03.239 because I don't want you to get fined. It's been 0:42:03.360 --> 0:42:06.360 some god damn bull crap. And I just said it. 0:42:06.440 --> 0:42:08.680 When DJ was on here, there was like two or 0:42:08.719 --> 0:42:11.919 three games. That Buffalo game was silly. That Buffalo game, 0:42:11.960 --> 0:42:14.319 I said, Hey, this is the first time I'm gonna 0:42:14.320 --> 0:42:16.520 say they cheating these boys. 0:42:16.560 --> 0:42:17.880 Now, if you look. 0:42:17.760 --> 0:42:20.759 Around the league, like you, if you look around the league, 0:42:20.800 --> 0:42:24.239 you will see, like everybody probably got more PI calls 0:42:24.360 --> 0:42:28.000 than they've had they I know, me, I think now 0:42:28.040 --> 0:42:30.160 it's I haven't seen it, but I have more than 0:42:30.200 --> 0:42:31.759 I've had the last couple of years. 0:42:33.360 --> 0:42:35.080 Because we were talking about it in my me room. 0:42:35.640 --> 0:42:40.160 I think DJ, dude, I think bro. 0:42:40.239 --> 0:42:42.759 Really everybody you could think of it, you know. So, 0:42:43.880 --> 0:42:46.359 I mean a lot of the concepts look the same. 0:42:46.400 --> 0:42:48.040 A lot of the corners try to play it the same, 0:42:48.080 --> 0:42:50.320 even if they have different bills. Like so, it's like 0:42:50.400 --> 0:42:54.400 I see the same stuff, same concepts, the same hip slips, 0:42:54.440 --> 0:42:57.400 the sameeness and that same day. And it's like sometimes 0:42:57.400 --> 0:43:03.000 you see it get called sometimes don't. Like I remember, like, uh, 0:43:03.080 --> 0:43:05.160 it was a play on we was playing the Patriots 0:43:05.800 --> 0:43:11.360 and Gonzales. He grabbed devonce arm a little bit and 0:43:11.480 --> 0:43:14.840 they didn't call a piare or holding or nothing like that. 0:43:15.840 --> 0:43:17.760 Me as a corner, I'm like, he's just playing physical. 0:43:17.960 --> 0:43:20.239 That's how I look at it. As a corner, so like, hey, 0:43:21.360 --> 0:43:23.839 if you throw the penalty, he was playing physical. If 0:43:23.840 --> 0:43:25.960 you don't throw the penalty, he was playing piscical. 0:43:26.000 --> 0:43:26.800 It just is who it is. 0:43:27.120 --> 0:43:29.400 And then the other one, they called another one and 0:43:29.719 --> 0:43:31.920 it was his great defense, like he didn't grab him, 0:43:31.960 --> 0:43:33.840 none of that, but they called it. But I feel like, 0:43:34.360 --> 0:43:37.279 you know, the rest aren't human. So I feel like 0:43:37.360 --> 0:43:41.399 sometimes they might call it a flag if they feel 0:43:41.440 --> 0:43:44.200 like they probably missed it previously. Like they might call 0:43:44.280 --> 0:43:46.239 a close one, So say, if it's if it's a 0:43:46.680 --> 0:43:48.759 blatant one, dang, I. 0:43:48.760 --> 0:43:49.600 Ain't call that one. 0:43:49.840 --> 0:43:52.920 If it's one that's a little close or could possibly be, 0:43:53.239 --> 0:43:53.880 they gonna. 0:43:53.719 --> 0:43:56.200 Throw that one.

Right, they 0:44:12.760 --> 0:44:15.520 also have a sheet with every referee name on it. 0:44:16.680 --> 0:44:19.080 Does Brick or chiltte ever go over there with y'all. 0:44:19.239 --> 0:44:21.799 We've been we've been going we started. We started going 0:44:21.840 --> 0:44:26.720 over it after Minnesota game.

I 0:46:00.080 --> 0:46:03.240 don't ever try to, you know, just say certain things. 0:46:03.600 --> 0:46:06.680 It's just you got receivers right now that will be 0:46:07.080 --> 0:46:09.360 running their route, mere route. They leaning up against you. 0:46:09.719 --> 0:46:12.480 So it's like, okay, you leaning up against me. You 0:46:12.640 --> 0:46:15.840 run an inside release, some outside levers right on your outside. 0:46:16.239 --> 0:46:18.800 You're leaning up against me. Am I supposed to just 0:46:18.880 --> 0:46:21.520 do this? Or am I supposed to stay latched like this? 0:46:21.680 --> 0:46:25.560 Hands low? Okay? Cool? But bro, it's just a little different. 0:46:25.600 --> 0:46:25.680 Bro. 0:46:25.800 --> 0:46:29.479 It's look, look, they got DJ for something. 0:46:29.480 --> 0:46:31.360 I taught him as a rookie, and I felt so 0:46:31.520 --> 0:46:34.520 sick about it because I taught him like if somebody pushed, 0:46:35.000 --> 0:46:37.399 like keep the arm and make them one hand, put 0:46:37.480 --> 0:46:40.120 you on sports center, pull through and go for it. 0:46:40.200 --> 0:46:42.359 So it's gonna be like, hey, I got that arm 0:46:42.480 --> 0:46:45.200 pulled through, reach put your other arm and go for it. 0:46:45.760 --> 0:46:48.120 And so he did it, and they called it, and 0:46:48.280 --> 0:46:50.440 I said, bro, they never and there's no way he 0:46:50.480 --> 0:46:52.920 could have saw it because you looking from there the 0:46:53.040 --> 0:46:54.000 receivers back to you. 0:46:54.200 --> 0:46:56.399 He grabbing this on there's no way you throwing out. 0:46:57.040 --> 0:46:59.839 But another thing on that play, he didn't even reach 0:47:00.040 --> 0:47:03.319 and pool and accelerate, like he just had his arm 0:47:03.520 --> 0:47:05.839 and was running like DJ is still running his normal 0:47:05.880 --> 0:47:08.000 speed and just had his arm, like he didn't try 0:47:08.040 --> 0:47:10.040 to like do what you said, like pool and accelerate, 0:47:10.640 --> 0:47:12.440 because you got to think the receiver could have possibly 0:47:12.480 --> 0:47:14.879 flopped it stuff if he did that. He just ran 0:47:15.160 --> 0:47:17.319 and the receiver just doing like I think he's talking 0:47:17.320 --> 0:47:19.640 about the Bills game, but I think I think he's 0:47:19.680 --> 0:47:22.120 had got that one called yeah, because he got that 0:47:22.160 --> 0:47:27.960 one called against New England Thornton and against Buffalo, both 0:47:28.000 --> 0:47:31.279 of the same ones where it's like, is the ball catchable? No? 0:47:32.120 --> 0:47:36.040 Is he slowing his speed down? Lo, the receiver's arm 0:47:36.200 --> 0:47:36.480 is out. 0:47:37.239 --> 0:47:40.320 Is he just gonna run and just be like blocked 0:47:40.360 --> 0:47:43.320 off by the hand and just be running into his hand? No? 0:47:43.960 --> 0:47:46.319 So what he is he gonna do? Grab the arm? 0:47:46.960 --> 0:47:47.120 You know? 0:47:47.440 --> 0:47:50.800 But Bro, the one Jefferson he ran that outer that 0:47:50.880 --> 0:47:54.600 seven cut on DJ and tried to brush off and DJ, great. 0:47:54.400 --> 0:47:58.560 D great defense, great defense. If it's something crazy. If 0:47:58.600 --> 0:48:01.440 it's something bro, this is how it's up. Bro, if 0:48:01.480 --> 0:48:01.719 it's a. 0:48:01.760 --> 0:48:06.120 Crazy PI or crazy holding, we literally be like, nah, 0:48:06.200 --> 0:48:07.239 that's you ain't have to do that. 0:48:07.560 --> 0:48:09.680 I didn't had times about it, told DJ, yeah, you 0:48:09.719 --> 0:48:10.279 ain't have to do. 0:48:10.320 --> 0:48:12.799 That right there because you already and it's been time 0:48:12.880 --> 0:48:14.480 with DJ, so you ain't have to do that right 0:48:14.520 --> 0:48:16.600 there because you're in a good position to trust up speed. 0:48:16.960 --> 0:48:19.040 And that tell us us, bro, you hell a fact, 0:48:19.160 --> 0:48:22.080 Like we always we be coaching ourselves. So by the 0:48:22.160 --> 0:48:24.040 time by the time T come up to us, a 0:48:24.120 --> 0:48:26.640 solid couple a brick come up to us to tell 0:48:26.760 --> 0:48:29.239 us like, hey, yeah you ain't we already it went over. 0:48:29.600 --> 0:48:31.839 We're good, coach, were good. We ain't got to worry 0:48:31.840 --> 0:48:33.880 about it. You know, you know, that's just that's the 0:48:33.960 --> 0:48:37.040 chemistry that me and DJ got. But yeah, man, it's 0:48:37.080 --> 0:48:40.360 definitely been rough. Obviously we've been able to watch football 0:48:40.440 --> 0:48:42.839 and just see like these PR calls and each hold 0:48:42.880 --> 0:48:45.400 costs throughout the league has been crazy. But I remember 0:48:45.440 --> 0:48:48.200 that Minnesota game. We think like, bro, is it is 0:48:48.280 --> 0:48:50.960 it us? Like, is these people have to get us? 0:48:51.040 --> 0:48:51.680 Like what's going on? 0:48:52.160 --> 0:48:54.000 That's what it looked like that game, because they might 0:48:54.080 --> 0:48:56.440 have got you like three times in one drive. I 0:48:56.520 --> 0:48:58.160 think it was like two or three times. And I 0:48:58.280 --> 0:48:59.360 was like, oh, like. 0:48:59.840 --> 0:49:01.759 They got they got me off the they got me 0:49:01.840 --> 0:49:04.680 off the whip off, the whip rout that Addison and 0:49:05.640 --> 0:49:08.520 on even grazed they got me off that. 0:49:08.640 --> 0:49:12.000 I'm like, I was, I went to the sideline. 0:49:12.480 --> 0:49:14.360 I'm understand like if this is my rookie year, I 0:49:15.080 --> 0:49:18.240 threw a helmet kick some all that, but I'm understanding 0:49:18.320 --> 0:49:21.400 like the effect that I got on everybody else, And 0:49:21.480 --> 0:49:24.080 it's like if I do this, then other people go 0:49:24.320 --> 0:49:26.560 if they get mad, they feel like they're good. All right, SA, 0:49:27.160 --> 0:49:28.800 Calm down, you got a lot of football to be 0:49:29.120 --> 0:49:30.800 a lot of It's a lot of football to be played. 0:49:31.520 --> 0:49:34.960 Calm down, you know, but sometimes you can't get a 0:49:34.960 --> 0:49:37.480 little frustrated, you know, right, But that's growth. 0:49:37.800 --> 0:49:40.160 That's growth showing showing a little growth for your three 0:49:40.320 --> 0:49:41.360 year three growth, you know. 0:49:41.600 --> 0:49:45.280 Yeah, So back to this growth. These reps got names 0:49:45.480 --> 0:49:48.160 and they got families, and they people. They normal people. 0:49:48.840 --> 0:49:51.920 And this is a trick they taught me early on. Bro. 0:49:52.080 --> 0:49:54.160 I would know the names. I would I. 0:49:54.160 --> 0:49:56.680 Would probably either know one fact, because we always had 0:49:56.719 --> 0:49:59.080 this researcher that he just would tell me stuff about 0:49:59.120 --> 0:50:00.440 him because he that's just what do you want to 0:50:00.560 --> 0:50:01.399 call bighead Todd. 0:50:01.440 --> 0:50:03.560 We just he just would help. 0:50:03.960 --> 0:50:06.359 And so like, I don't know if they kids went 0:50:06.440 --> 0:50:08.279 to a certain school or if they went to a 0:50:08.360 --> 0:50:10.719 certain score, are they fans of like Bama or you 0:50:10.760 --> 0:50:12.719 know what I mean?

I'm 0:51:25.000 --> 0:51:29.120 not disrupted him at all. After the play he called 0:51:29.120 --> 0:51:31.080 a p I I'm like, ref, what did I do? 0:51:31.600 --> 0:51:33.440 Like you're pulling him? You'll stop him? 0:51:33.760 --> 0:51:34.160 I said. 0:51:34.640 --> 0:51:37.520 I did not pull him at all, like, not even 0:51:37.520 --> 0:51:40.920 a little bit. Like I literally was chested chest and 0:51:41.080 --> 0:51:43.080 I was running like vertical. I wasn't even laaning it 0:51:43.120 --> 0:51:44.439 on him, like I looked. 0:51:44.480 --> 0:51:45.160 I looked through him. 0:51:45.239 --> 0:51:48.439 Then I turned it the last minute hit the ball. Yeah, 0:51:48.440 --> 0:51:51.839 I say, hey, Rev, you tell I looked at him. 0:51:52.320 --> 0:51:52.920 I looked at him. 0:51:52.920 --> 0:51:55.920 He probably bad for me because the way I said that, 0:51:55.920 --> 0:51:57.360 I thought about it, like, did I really say it 0:51:57.440 --> 0:51:57.600 like that? 0:51:57.680 --> 0:52:03.280 I'm like, hey, ref, he said, just let us lay today.

I definitely did say I was 0:52:07.800 --> 0:52:12.000 gonna let them play. But man, that was that was 0:52:12.080 --> 0:52:13.560 one that hurt me. That was the one that hurt 0:52:13.640 --> 0:52:14.319 the heart right there. 0:52:14.640 --> 0:52:17.360 You know right, I'm not gonna tell you it may not, 0:52:17.560 --> 0:52:20.560 it may not do nothing, but just learn that dude name. 0:52:20.600 --> 0:52:22.279 I'm telling you because they got numbers too, so you 0:52:22.320 --> 0:52:23.960 ain't even got it.
