1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: I thought it was a productive practice yesterday with the Jets. 2 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:06,800 Speaker 1: I thought we got a lot accomplished. It was good 3 00:00:06,840 --> 00:00:13,039 Speaker 1: to see another colored jersey guys going against different skill sets, competitiveness. 4 00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: I thought we practiced the right way. Um. Coach Salad 5 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: and his team, I thought did a fantastic job, and 6 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:22,360 Speaker 1: we try to reciprocate it. So we got a lot 7 00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: out of it. It was. It was good work. Where 8 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: do you stand on playing time in the game after 9 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 1: that man of practice. We're gonna talk about it today 10 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:35,360 Speaker 1: after practice and probably tomorrow morning, and then we'll have 11 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,919 Speaker 1: a feel of exactly what we want to do with 12 00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: Science said too that sign of Graham and left the 13 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:47,519 Speaker 1: brocle Graham was still yeah, he wasn't ready to go, So, um, 14 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:52,640 Speaker 1: figure we'll get Ryan. Letn't kick some more. You always 15 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 1: have Jamie if we need it. But that was that 16 00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: was the thought we had at Travis Um too. For 17 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: for receiving guys playing time in that preseason game. Is 18 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,640 Speaker 1: it just deciding how much we want guys to player. 19 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 1: Are you insisted on having your starters playing that game? 20 00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: Not necessarily? Yeah, I think we've got a lot of 21 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: good work. Um, we'll have another good day to day. 22 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,360 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that as a coaching staff and do 23 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: what we think is right for for our team. Where 24 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,080 Speaker 1: we're at this point. How much of a relief was 25 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: it to get the news about disease. I'm sure you 26 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 1: saw him pull up and it didn't look good initially. Yeah. Yeah, 27 00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: any time, any time you get you know, better news 28 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,440 Speaker 1: on an injury that it may or may not be 29 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,319 Speaker 1: I think if you're always happy as a coach, but 30 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: he'll be day to day. We'll just keep on grinding through. 31 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: That injury possibly threatened his week one availability. Uh, I 32 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: don't know yet. I don't know. No, I just say again, 33 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: day to day, that's where he's at. When he's out 34 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: there is when he'll be out there. If anyone right 35 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 1: now that you know will not be right. Point that 36 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: some guys haven't been seen in you know, years old. No, no, not. 37 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 1: I mean we'll get to that point, but but not 38 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: at this point. Bright. What kind of a summer have 39 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: you seen from Oce Shane. He's sort of been the 40 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: filling guy while you're outside each of them. Yeah, he 41 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: I think he's not a good job. He's been ready 42 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: to go, he's been available, he's been improving. You know, 43 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: he's a big body guy, got heavy hands. That's a 44 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: good job of setting the edge. I think he's picked 45 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:22,399 Speaker 1: up the defense well. Drew has done a good job 46 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: with him. So we need that from We need that 47 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: from our guess. Will you give Brown some reps on 48 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,959 Speaker 1: the edge? Because the numbers past that could that could 49 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: happen based on where we're at, that could happen. I'm 50 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,679 Speaker 1: not gonna say it's definitely gonna happen, but um I 51 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: addressed that with the defensive staff, just to make sure 52 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,520 Speaker 1: those guys are ready in case we need it. On 53 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: the field. Yesterday we were we're watching the offense. Uh yeah, 54 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: he didn't he didn't do anything relatively out there. But 55 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: he's getting he's getting better. Bright what's one I just 56 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: I just put him down for for for yesterday. He's 57 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: had it. He's had a lot of reps um. He'll 58 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: be fine, Ryan, What would you say is the most 59 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 1: surprising thing that you've learned about Daniel Jones since coming 60 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: into the building, Whether it be on the field or 61 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 1: or off, the true pro works extremely hard. He's in 62 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: real early, stays real late. He's good with his teammates, 63 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 1: he's a good communicator. You know, he's improved every day 64 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: since we've been here. How much just saying in training camp? 65 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: But um, good young quarterback to work with? Sense? Has 66 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:32,399 Speaker 1: he improved specifically? M really with everything? Again, it's hard 67 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: to learn a new offense and execute it, um, right 68 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 1: off the bat. There's so many moving pieces when you're 69 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: installing a new offensive scheme, from cadence to play call 70 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: two reads, to protection systems, to check with mes, two 71 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: audibles too, you know Nascar or fastball terms. There's a 72 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: lot to learn. Um. So each day, I think he's 73 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,480 Speaker 1: making progress with it. Um, presuming you haven't made a 74 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: determination on this yet, at what point do you want 75 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: to decide who's gonna be year play caller week one 76 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: offensively when we when we play that week? Yeah, Mike's 77 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: note a good job. Um, we'll just we'll call this 78 00:04:09,560 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: one and we'll revisit, like we revisit all of it. 79 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 1: But he's done a lot of confidence And like, right, 80 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: I think you knew Zavier when he was a freshman 81 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: at Alabama, right, yeah, yeah, So what what kind of 82 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: leadership skills did you see from him when he was 83 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: coming into college that and and what have you seen 84 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: from him, I would say I was more focused on 85 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: on the offensive side of the ball in general. Um, 86 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: I'll just speak at my time here with the Giants. 87 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: I think for for a younger player, he has no 88 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: problem speaking up. He's a good communicator. He knows the 89 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: defensive system very well. Um. I think he's just a 90 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: great job with not just the defensive backs, but communicates 91 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 1: with the linebackers, the front guys, uh, the offense. He's 92 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: really been been a pleasure to be around. You have 93 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: specific numbers of position to be making theft three, you 94 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,480 Speaker 1: need an x amount of tight end like you or whatever. No, 95 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,559 Speaker 1: I think it each year. It's varied from the teams 96 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,600 Speaker 1: that I've been on, and I'm certain it will vary 97 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,280 Speaker 1: this year. We try to do the best your jobs 98 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: you can of creating the most competitive roster that you 99 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: can have. Sometimes it's heavy on one spot, lighter on 100 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: the other spot. I think, you know, the kicking game 101 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: always has importance, and really all those back end jobs. 102 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 1: So I'm sure it'll be a little different than it 103 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: was a year before, or five years or ten years. 104 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: How about quarterbacks? With that, you know, the tractic squad 105 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: rules changed about two years ago three years ago. Does 106 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: that affect how you how you do that? You know, 107 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,839 Speaker 1: would you keep three quarterbacks on the active proster? We could, Yeah, 108 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,719 Speaker 1: we could. I'm not saying we will, but I think 109 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: every everything is on the table at this point. Um. 110 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: You know, this will be an important week for for 111 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: a lot of players, or the last game to evaluate them. 112 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: And then you know, we'll have discussions. We've had them, 113 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 1: will continue to have them. Um, but I wouldn't rule 114 00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: anything out. You've been in the sleeve when you would 115 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: have your your final cuts and then you guys roll 116 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,559 Speaker 1: right into the game. We the fact that they've built 117 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: in now over the last couple of years is extra week. 118 00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 1: How does it alter your preparation for Week one? What 119 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: you've got to do? No, good question. We'll we'll focus 120 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 1: on ourselves still here coming up this week. UM, I 121 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 1: think you can overdo preparing for a team, you know, 122 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: both as a coaching staff and as players. You know, 123 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: at least that's what we've done the last four years 124 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,239 Speaker 1: and I was at Buffalo. So we'll focus on improving 125 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: the things we need to work on. And again it'll 126 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,960 Speaker 1: it'll get some time, guys to get rested up and 127 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: healed up, and um, you know, hopefully we'll have as 128 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 1: many out there as we can. Have you decided how 129 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 1: many days of practice you're gonna have next week? Three, 130 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 1: so you'll do Tuesday Wednesday. Yet I think it's Tuesday Wednesday. 131 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: There's a yeah, yeah, good. Do you think do you 132 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: think Daniel had a good practice yesterday? And how do 133 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: you think he's growing in the last few weeks? Yeah, 134 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: I thought he did some good things. I think he's 135 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: you know, again, he's taking steps each day. Pat He's 136 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: he's improving, you know, his eyes, his his vision on this, 137 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: whether it's the second level, the third level, his reads, 138 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 1: his footwork, his ability to to get to check downs 139 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: when we need to. I think he's seeing downfield clearly. Again, 140 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: I think Daniel's improved every day he's been here, and 141 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 1: you know, part of it is just him, the type 142 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: of person he is, the way he works. Um, you know, 143 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: I think we're building. It's we're still got a long 144 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: way to go, but I'm pleased with his progress, his leadership, 145 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: how he's handled things. You each day we've gotten a 146 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: little bit better. Where do you stand on that left 147 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: guard spot? At this point, you've had a lot of 148 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,679 Speaker 1: injuries some Yeah, I think that's probably a better better 149 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: one for for next week or the week after that. 150 00:07:56,680 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 1: I think we'll see where we're at physically. We fully 151 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: have people that have played inside there, and uh, you know, 152 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: in a week or two will we'll make sure we 153 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: have you know, who we think is the is the 154 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: right person in there. We hadn't seen Shane. How's he doing? 155 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: He's coming along, but I wouldn't anticipate him anytime soon. Um, 156 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 1: probably not. You mentioned the other day the idea of 157 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: the urgency seenior guys, you knowing what's coming on Tuesday 158 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: for you. You you've made a point to say you 159 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: want to connect with the guys individually. Is there any 160 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: point over the next forty eight hours that you'll go 161 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:39,640 Speaker 1: to guys who you know are on the bubble and 162 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: and kind of I don't know if it's pep talk 163 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 1: or motivational or you just kind of let things play 164 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: out the way. Yeah, I'm more.
