1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,679
Speaker 1: Was a Broncos Country team. Reporter and host Sidney Jones

2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:05,359
Speaker 1: here coming to you from the newly renamed the Centurial

3
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:08,920
Speaker 1: Health Training Center. Coming up on today's episode of Broncos Now,

4
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: we'll recap a Rookie Mini Caamp that took place this weekend,

5
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:21,280
Speaker 1: your head coach Sean Payton's thoughts and more. Thennver Broncos

6
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,080
Speaker 1: hosted nearly sixty players for this year's of.

7
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 2: Rookie Mini Camp.

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: Head coach Sean Payton spoke following Saturday's practice, and he

9
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 1: discussed how he approaches Rookie Mini Camp every year and

10
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: what do he expects from these young players, really trying.

11
00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 3: To look at every one of these guys, evaluate them properly,

12
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 3: with an open mind and knowing that history would tell

13
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 3: us that, you know, there's players that get overlooked and

14
00:00:46,320 --> 00:00:50,160
Speaker 3: it's not a science. So I would say this yesterday

15
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:56,520
Speaker 3: we were inside the challenge always with these practices are

16
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 3: tempo and then educating them on staying up and you know,

17
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:06,279
Speaker 3: working together without pads. I would say in my sixteen years,

18
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 3: the practice we had yesterday and today, just relative to

19
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 3: the OTA tempo was was very good. So we try

20
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 3: to show them a lot of film beforehand of what

21
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 3: it looks like because some of them, you know, may

22
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 3: maybe coming from college programs that that haven't had practices

23
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 3: like this. So I've been pleased that way. Obviously a

24
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:35,919
Speaker 3: lot of teaching going on and and and then the PM.

25
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 3: You know, we're kind of really in a walkthrough mode.

26
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: Coach Bin also went on to talk about how he

27
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 1: balanced on field work and a film study this weekend.

28
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:49,559
Speaker 3: It's all of it. It's it's it's it's getting getting

29
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 3: prepared and then also understanding, hey, you're you're currently behind

30
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 3: the group that's been here and so that you're not

31
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 3: going to make it up this weekend, but you're currently

32
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 3: behind that group relative to conditioning level, a lot of things.

33
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:12,080
Speaker 3: And so it's beginning that process of the physical, the mental,

34
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 3: and then the stuff that's outside of football, you know,

35
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 3: getting acclimated to, you know, the way we want to

36
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 3: do things. And so the itinerary, you know, is always

37
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 3: tinkered with and each year we look at it and

38
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,920
Speaker 3: adjust it and change it. Sometimes we change it because

39
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 3: rules change. But there's a balance to all of it.

40
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 1: The team oled twenty seven tryout players among the fifty

41
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: eight guys that participated in rookie camp this weekend, and

42
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: head coach Sean Payton detailed what do you hope to

43
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: see from them?

44
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 3: For me, my biggest fear is that somebody that's out

45
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:57,560
Speaker 3: here for three days ends up somewhere else playing well.

46
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 3: And so trying to really trying to look at everyone,

47
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 3: not just the draft picks, but the guys that are

48
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 3: here for three days, and and the challenge sometimes because

49
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,919
Speaker 3: you know, we're not in pads. If any one of us,

50
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: you know, we're just here for three days, we're going

51
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 3: to go pretty hard and try to make an impression.

52
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: We also heard from the twenty twenty three draft picks

53
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: this weekend. Here's what safety J'all Skinner, inside linebacker Drew Sanders,

54
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: wide receiver Marvin Mims, junior cornerback Riley Moss in the

55
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: center Alex Fortheyce had to say following Saturday's practice.

56
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 4: He's a football player, you know what I mean. That's

57
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,080
Speaker 4: really the best way to describe it. You know, things

58
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 4: I could work on, just covering those smaller slots, you know,

59
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 4: really just getting acclimates of the NFL game. But I'm

60
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 4: just a ballplayer, you know, and do everything to contribute

61
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 4: you know, do everything for us to win, you know,

62
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 4: do things like that. So I just want to, you know,

63
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 4: just because it's continued to become a better player and

64
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 4: just develop in every way. You know, there's not one

65
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 4: thing I want to concede in development. And I just

66
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 4: got here. You know, I'm not I'm not, you know,

67
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 4: nowhere near I was supposed to be. So just con

68
00:03:58,040 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 4: see you to develop every day, you know, just learn

69
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 4: from the when I've everyone around. So I'm pretty excited

70
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,640
Speaker 4: just to get back to football. You know, I'm enjoying

71
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 4: the you know, you know, learning a new defense and

72
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 4: you know, being out there with new teammates and I'm

73
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 4: just having to blast. It's a dream come true, honestly.

74
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 5: I mean ever since I was a little kid, just

75
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 5: looking up watching on.

76
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:14,520
Speaker 4: TV and just to be here.

77
00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 5: It feels surreal.

78
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 2: But you know, it's here.

79
00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:18,919
Speaker 4: So just time to take care of business, you know,

80
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:19,360
Speaker 4: do I.

81
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 6: Can you know, make plays, you know, that's that's the

82
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 6: biggest thing, you know, especially playing dB, you know you

83
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,159
Speaker 6: have to be able to you know, affect you know

84
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 6: the game and you know, hopefully you know, get the

85
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 6: ball to the offense. So I think that's the biggest thing,

86
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 6: and then you know, doing whatever I need to do

87
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:33,720
Speaker 6: and do it at one hundred percent.

88
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 5: Well, I think my coaches in college, you know, early on,

89
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 5: they really pushed me to play right tackle through left

90
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 5: tackle pretty much wherever I could be of service. So

91
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 5: I think that definitely helped elevate my game, the understanding

92
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 5: of the offensive line and the offense what we're trying

93
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 5: to do. So for me, that was really ended up.

94
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 5: You know, it was kind of frustrating at first because

95
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,040
Speaker 5: it's it's hard to master all those positions, but then

96
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 5: kind of once you start to figure it out, you

97
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 5: start to appreciate it a lot more, and so I

98
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 5: appreciated my coaches doing that. Now where I'm at, just

99
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,800
Speaker 5: kind of having a better understanding of offensive schemes and

100
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 5: stuff like that.

101
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: Now, joining me here inside the Broncos podcast studio to

102
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 1: recap the weekend is fellow team reporter Phil Malani. Phil,

103
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 1: thanks for joining me today.

104
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 2: Thanks for having me said, yeah, of course, it.

105
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: Was a busy weekend. Here, another busy weekend. I feel

106
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: like the past couple of weeks I've been really busy.

107
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: But with Burgie Minniicamp, there were fifty eight players that

108
00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 1: were here. I mean that's a lot, especially the last

109
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 1: couple of years.

110
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought, you know, it was interesting.

111
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 7: Champagne said, like his biggest thing was, you don't want

112
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 7: to have a player leave your Ricky mini camp, go

113
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 7: to another team and have success there and then he's

114
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 7: back here reading about it.

115
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, he said that was his biggest fear. Yeah, exactly.

116
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:45,320
Speaker 7: So, Yeah, the Broncos getting a look at a lot

117
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,600
Speaker 7: of different guys and just trying to find the right

118
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 7: fits here for the Broncos.

119
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 2: Definitely.

120
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Phil, we were both here on Saturday, saw the

121
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: viewing period of practice. Was there anyone out there that

122
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: kind of caught your eye? Anyone that stood out to you?

123
00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 7: Well, I think the funniest moment, I guess, or I

124
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,599
Speaker 7: don't know if it was funny for Ben Denucci. But

125
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 7: Champayton after practice said that during practice he was hanging

126
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 7: out with the ownership group talking to Greg Penner there

127
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 7: and he was saying, Hey, this guy Ben Denucci. He's

128
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 7: been playing pretty well. And fans probably know Danucci from

129
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 7: Hard Knocks a couple of years ago, really heavily featured

130
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 7: when they were with the Cowboys. So he was talking

131
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,320
Speaker 7: up Danucci and right when he's doing that, he throws

132
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 7: a pick six to Drew Sanders. So that was a

133
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 7: funny moment.

134
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 2: I think.

135
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,560
Speaker 7: And then he said, well, I guess he could work

136
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 7: for Walmart, you know, he can be a greeter there

137
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 7: if it doesn't work out in football. But nice to

138
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 7: know that Drew Sanders is out there making plays, you know. Yeah,

139
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,479
Speaker 7: And I think that's a guy that a lot of

140
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 7: fans are interested in just seeing what he could be

141
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 7: like because he was a guy who was all world

142
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,440
Speaker 7: coming out of high school, went to out Bama for

143
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 7: a couple of years, then transferred to Arkansas and a

144
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 7: lot of people thought maybe he'd go pretty early in

145
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,080
Speaker 7: the draft, but Broncos were able to get him in

146
00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 7: the third round, and so I think there's some intrigue

147
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 7: to know what's this guy gonna bring to the team

148
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 7: and is he gonna be this pressure type player and

149
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 7: what that means.

150
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 2: And so nice to just see him and all of

151
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 2: the guys really, you know.

152
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 7: Just to put a face to the voices that we

153
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 7: heard over a draft weekend and.

154
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 2: Just see what they look like when they went on

155
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 2: a jersey. Yeah, definitely.

156
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, you said it was nice to see a lot

157
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: of the draft picks get out there and get their

158
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 1: feet wet. I know, Marvin Mims Junior, he said, you know,

159
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 1: after he was drafted, he was kind of like, well

160
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: what do I do now? So he was itching to

161
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: get on the field and get over here.

162
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's just nice to just even see them in

163
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 7: person too and be like, wow, Jail Skinner is really tall,

164
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 7: Like you know, you can feel that presence or you know,

165
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 7: I thought that Riley Moss had a big personality, you know,

166
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 7: and like it's just nice to us like get a

167
00:07:56,920 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 7: feel for what these guys are about, because you don't

168
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 7: really get that over the phone or you know, during

169
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 7: the draft they're just so excited, they're not really themselves,

170
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 7: you know. Yeah, so one to just see what they

171
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 7: look like in person out on the field, because we're

172
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 7: so used to when we watched the practice, we're so

173
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 7: used to seeing Broncos players, you know, and like established

174
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 7: NFL guys.

175
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:21,480
Speaker 2: So then when you see the rookies come.

176
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 7: In, you're like, do they fit into what we're normally

177
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 7: seeing out there or are they not as fast? Are

178
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 7: they not as big or this or that. I didn't

179
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 7: feel like that with any of those guys, so that

180
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 7: was good, and then also the personality part of it,

181
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 7: just gonna chat with them in the locker room for

182
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 7: a little bit there, that was sort of interesting. Never

183
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,000
Speaker 7: done that before during Rookie Minnie camp having an open

184
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 7: locker room. Champagne said, Hey, that was just to give

185
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,200
Speaker 7: these guys a taste for what it's like in the season,

186
00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 7: you know, when you go in there. Of course, media

187
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 7: gets forty five minute window there, and so they did

188
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,040
Speaker 7: that for the open locker room period here for Ricky

189
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 7: Mini camp.

190
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 2: Of course.

191
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 7: Champagne said that he was given out gift card to

192
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 7: the most generic answer.

193
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,560
Speaker 2: No, I wonder who want the guy? Yeah, I wonder

194
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 2: who won that.

195
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that that was an interesting little thing,

196
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 7: just to teach these guys a little something about media.

197
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love it. It was really the first time we

198
00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: saw this coaching staff out on the field. Yeah, too practice,

199
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: so that was cool as well.

200
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, you got to see Sean out there with his

201
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 7: orange riser. Yeah, and you know, he was wearing that

202
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 7: Bronco's hoodie for the first time out on the field

203
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 7: and somebody asked him, I think it was Zack Stevens.

204
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,240
Speaker 7: I said, hey, what you know, you feel like you're

205
00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 7: settling in now, and he was like, yeah, I think

206
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 7: so now now it feels real.

207
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:31,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, great to see.

208
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 3: Well.

209
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,440
Speaker 1: Unrelated to Recie mining camp, phil Sean Payton did say

210
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: that Javonte Williams his rehab is going really well and

211
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: he's expected to be able to play at the start

212
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:40,719
Speaker 1: of training camp.

213
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:41,959
Speaker 2: So that's great news. Really.

214
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 7: That was probably the biggest music came out of the weekend, right,

215
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 7: is just the what's going on with Javonta, what's going

216
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,880
Speaker 7: on with that running back room? Because the Broncos, I

217
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 7: think a lot of people thought maybe they'd be adding

218
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 7: to that room. Maybe they would have tried to bring

219
00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 7: back Latavius Murray, you know, just the people thought that

220
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 7: there was gonna be more action this offseason and we're

221
00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:04,200
Speaker 7: at the running back position. But the Broncos obviously feel

222
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 7: like they didn't need to because Javonte's rehabbened well, so

223
00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,040
Speaker 7: they brought in some m JP Ryan of course, but

224
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 7: then I just thought maybe there'd be more than that,

225
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 7: and Sean this weekend was like, hey, we expect Javonte

226
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,280
Speaker 7: Williams to be ready for the start of training camp.

227
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 7: If you're not ready for the start of training camp,

228
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 7: you have to go on pup and that's a whole

229
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 7: long process for getting back out onto the field. If

230
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 7: there's a way for Javonte to avoid that get back

231
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 7: out there, that would be really a positive sign for

232
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 7: the Broncos because last year he was supposed to be

233
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,000
Speaker 7: this breakout player. This second year jump that he was

234
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 7: supposed to make. The offense was supposed to be, you know,

235
00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,720
Speaker 7: centered around a lot of what Javonte could do, and

236
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 7: then for him to just go down so early in

237
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 7: the season, it was so disappointing. And you know, we've

238
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 7: seen guys in the past come back quickly from a

239
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 7: acl like Adrian Pearson did that I think of like

240
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,839
Speaker 7: eight months, So I think this would be a little

241
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 7: more than nine months for Javonte, which would be so

242
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 7: pretty quick quick. Yeah, but if he's able to do that,

243
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,840
Speaker 7: that would be a big thing for this Broncos team.

244
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 7: Just once again, I feel like they're trying to run

245
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:14,480
Speaker 7: the football here. I mean, they got some big dudes

246
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,400
Speaker 7: up front. They want to SMA play a little smash

247
00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 7: mouth football. So obviously, if Javonte is healthy, that's a

248
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 7: big difference for this offense.

249
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, great news there for sure. Chris Payton also mentioned

250
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: a potential joint practice with the Rams that was they

251
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 1: felt like kind of the big tidbit outside of Javonte

252
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 1: Williams news there. You know, nothing really official yet, but

253
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: he said he's been in talks to Sean McVay, and

254
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: of course that's a home game, so that joint practice

255
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 1: would be here, so that's exciting.

256
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 7: Yeah, he was asked about the schedule and you know,

257
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 7: you mentioned some things there, but yeah, he mentioned that

258
00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 7: in the preseason they were going to play the Rams

259
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 7: and then they're working on doing a joint practice, and

260
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,200
Speaker 7: you know, I think that that just is especially if

261
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 7: it's the last week of the season, of the preseason,

262
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 7: it kind of just is a change of scenery. You know,

263
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,920
Speaker 7: like just in terms of the eyes you're lining up against.

264
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,920
Speaker 7: You know, you're sick of playing against your teammates and practice,

265
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 7: so yeah, just seeing a different color uniform out there,

266
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 7: it makes a big difference. So I think that especially

267
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 7: if you're playing against a team like the Rams, you

268
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 7: know that they're well coached with Sean McVay. You know,

269
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 7: there's not going to be any funny business you hope

270
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,079
Speaker 7: out there, and you can get some really good works.

271
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:26,600
Speaker 7: So yeah, interesting to hear that from him. He also

272
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,560
Speaker 7: mentioned that like after a game against Buffalo on the

273
00:12:29,640 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 7: road Monday night game, instead of leaving right away, which

274
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 7: is how the Rockets have done it forever. Yeah, he said, Hey,

275
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,040
Speaker 7: I think that it's more beneficial to spend the night

276
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 7: there where you're back at like three am exactly exactly.

277
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 7: So yeah, interesting. All these coaches like to do things

278
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,760
Speaker 7: a little bit differently, So that was our first time

279
00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:51,960
Speaker 7: hearing those types of things from Sean both.

280
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,400
Speaker 1: Hopefully we'll hear from some other guys here soon as

281
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: I know. Coach Payton said, they're in phase two of

282
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: the off season program and that's going to ramp up

283
00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: here within the next week or so.

284
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's crazy.

285
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 7: Once a rookies get here, it really feels like the

286
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 7: offseason gets going and then they'll be integrated with the

287
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,040
Speaker 7: vets that have been around for a while and then, yeah,

288
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 7: like you mentioned, hopefully we'll get a chance to hear

289
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 7: from some guys who've been around here. We haven't heard

290
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:21,160
Speaker 7: from Russell, Wilson said since Sean Payton's been hired, so

291
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 7: just to get a little bit of insight from him

292
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 7: on what's been going on talk to guys about learning

293
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:31,719
Speaker 7: this offense. You know, I think that hopefully we'll get

294
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,959
Speaker 7: to know a little bit more about this Broncos team

295
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,960
Speaker 7: once we hear from these guys, and I know they're

296
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 7: not building up hype or talking about expectations and that

297
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 7: type of thing, but just to hear like how the

298
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 7: tone in the building is a little bit different now

299
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 7: with Sean Payton leading the way. That's going to be

300
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 7: really insightful. And we'll know more about this Broncos team

301
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 7: here over the next couple of weeks. But yeah, it's

302
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 7: crazy how fast offseason program gets moving here.

303
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 1: It really is.

304
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 7: Feels like the guys just got back. Yeah, but in reality,

305
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 7: you know, there's like a month left here and then

306
00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 7: uh training camp. There'll be a little break and then

307
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 7: training camp will be here. So yeah, it flies by,

308
00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 7: it does, Yeah, it really does.

309
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,240
Speaker 1: Well. Phil appreciate joining the show today, Thanks for.

310
00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,439
Speaker 2: Taking the time, Thanks for having me said, well.

311
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: I'll do it for today's episode of Broncos Now Broncos Country.

312
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:19,920
