33
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 3: with one of my all time favorites, Cowboys Special Teams

34
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 3: A c J.

35
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 1: Goodwin.

36
00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 5: Thank you for being here.

37
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 4: We really appreciate almost what I had said.

38
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 3: I appreciate that I've said many many times. If the

39
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 3: Cowboys had permanent captains, CJ. Goodwin would be easily the

40
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 3: captain of the special teams. And it's been an adventurous

41
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 3: year for the whole team, but on special teams. And

42
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 3: so what this will be is kind of a it'll

43
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 3: be kind of a year in review. But I think

44
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 3: you know, because we've talked about it before. I just

45
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 3: don't ever think that enough people really know the CJ.

46
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: Goodwin story.

47
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 3: So We're going to retell some parts of it because

48
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:41,920
Speaker 3: there's an old saying in comedy that there's no old jokes,

49
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 3: only old audiences. So if people haven't heard parts of

50
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 3: a conversation you and I have had before, then we

51
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 3: may as well have never had it for their benefit.

52
00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 4: Right, Okay, how you feeling physically?

53
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,920
Speaker 1: I feel great. I feel great. I feel the best

54
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: I felt in years after a long season like this.

55
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 3: Of course, last year you get you were hurt. But

56
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 3: tell me about feeling gra Have you done something different?

57
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 3: I mean, you're ten years in.

58
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 4: Eleven That's when I said eleven years is uh?

59
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 3: And you're I mean you're you're showing as much energy

60
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,880
Speaker 3: and enthusiasm as you have in.

61
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 4: All the years you've been here. Certainly, why do you

62
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 4: think you feel so if you changed something? Is it mental?

63
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 5: What do you think?

64
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: Sleep? Honestly? Sleep? I think that the older I get,

65
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 1: the more tired I get at night. So I was

66
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: just going to bed a little bit earlier. Man. Honestly,

67
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: I do the same. I get my massages every week,

68
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: I do I stretch. Uh. This is my routine. But

69
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: the coaches and the Tchinese staff do a good job

70
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 1: of taking care of us. We had a day called

71
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 1: Staydy on Fridays and they take good care of us

72
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: through two hours where we's mandatory we do body work.

73
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 1: And that's that's that's been a that's been a blessing

74
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: in my career as well.

75
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 5: That is something that Mike does.

76
00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 3: We all had to kind of it used to it

77
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 3: when he came in twenty twenty and then that was

78
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 3: a COVID year, so that almost doesn't count.

79
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 5: But he has a practice. It's not a full.

80
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 3: Pads, knockdown practice, but y'all practice on Saturday, right, and

81
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 3: most teams that I've been around have not practiced on Saturday,

82
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,920
Speaker 3: practice on Friday. And so that stay it's an acronym.

83
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: Right, Nobody knows what it means.

84
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 3: Sta, you know what it means, Nicole, I've seen it.

85
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,640
Speaker 3: Maybe we'll maybe we'll find it. But it's an acronym

86
00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 3: for a system that is designed. It's a recovery system

87
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 3: for your body.

88
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 1: Right.

89
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 3: And then he believes in the ramp up on Saturday.

90
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 3: Do you think obviously you think that's been an effective

91
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 3: that both Friday and Saturday, just a different way of doing.

92
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 1: It today, school Friday, school Saturday. It took some adjusting

93
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: because nobody has ever been through that with him. But

94
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,840
Speaker 1: we learned to love it. We learned not love it.

95
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,520
Speaker 6: How has it changed over the years that you've been here?

96
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: Has no that Saturday? As soon as he came, he

97
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: brought that with him. So we've been doing that. But

98
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: wherever else I've been, it's been Friday is our fast Friday.

99
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,039
Speaker 1: Saturday is like a walkthrough. So he just flipped that,

100
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: it's it's cool, okay.

101
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 3: John Fossil spoke today. The coordinators talked to us on Mondays.

102
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 3: So this was the last time that we'll get to

103
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 3: talk to them formally this year. And he was and

104
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 3: he was talking about the unusual year it's been for

105
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,920
Speaker 3: special teams, and when it was talking about you, he said,

106
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 3: of course, what what a tremendous influence on younger players,

107
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 3: What a what a terrific athlete you are, And so

108
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 3: he's got a lot left in it. And so that's

109
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 3: one of my questions for you. How do you feel

110
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 3: like you've got a lot left in you?

111
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: I do? I do. It's not up to me, unfortunately,

112
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,600
Speaker 1: it's up to the NFL and and GM saying saying

113
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: my value, But yeah, I feel like I know for

114
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: a fact that I can do another one and play

115
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,920
Speaker 1: and player at a high level. But after that, I mean,

116
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: it's up to God. But yeah, yeah, I know, I

117
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: know I got some some left in me. Yeah.

118
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 3: What what tells you that and what feeds your hunger

119
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 3: to keep doing it after eleven years?

120
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 1: I love the game for one and I and I

121
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: love being around the young guys, seeing that, seeing their

122
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 1: transformation in the league. It's cool, man, even getting to

123
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: be around, you know, some of the stars and having

124
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,280
Speaker 1: the influence on them. Of those guys, I talked to

125
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:31,720
Speaker 1: CD today, It's about some man and man stuff and

126
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: it was like, man, I'm in there talking to CD.

127
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: He's really listening to me. Yeah, So like just being

128
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: around stuff like that, Man, it's it's it's a blessing. Man.

129
00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:41,200
Speaker 6: What's more left? Do you feel like you have to

130
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:42,119
Speaker 6: show in this game?

131
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 1: I don't feel like I have too much to prove

132
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: to anybody. It's it's more about me proving that I

133
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: can still play at this level. Once we go through

134
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,359
Speaker 1: my story, you'll see why, Like where kind of my

135
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: hunger goes comes from. And you know, I'm proving it

136
00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 1: to myself that I belong here.

137
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 3: Absolutely, so that mentor leader, father confessor kind of thing

138
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 3: that you're talking about with CD. This is not the

139
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 3: first year you have been in that role. I'd say

140
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 3: it's been you know, maybe about three years anyway, would.

141
00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: You agree it's it's been a few years.

142
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 3: When do you think you kind of felt like that

143
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 3: was something that was becoming part of your value to

144
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 3: the team.

145
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 1: Uh, definitely when when Mike and coach Bones Gay, Uh,

146
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 1: it kind of you know, they they've added me to

147
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: the leadership council. They've just seen how it was in

148
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 1: the locker room just right away. Year two with them, Yeah, yeah,

149
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 1: twenty one, yeah, twenty one, Yeah, they added me to

150
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 1: the leadership council and it was cool. They just see

151
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: how it was in the locker I just talked messed

Speaker 1: to everybody all day and they just you know, everybody

153
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: laughs and you know, I can take a joke. So

154
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 1: and they and the coaches kind of seen me manure

155
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: through the locker room. They were like, man, you know,

156
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:57,360
Speaker 1: you can really be, you know, an asset to this

157
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 1: team off the field. So it was it was cool

158
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,440
Speaker 1: to be thrust into that position and I'm very appreciate it.

159
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 6: How has your go ahead, How has your leadership role

160
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 6: changed over the past few years or since you've been here?

161
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 7: Uh?

162
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 6: Or has it changed at all? How you approach and

163
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,360
Speaker 6: you know you have different guys coming in every year,

164
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 6: so how has your leadership role kind.

165
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: Of it changed from being more of a brother to

166
00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:27,040
Speaker 1: a I don't want to like an uncle, if that

167
00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: makes any sense. They actually some guys actually call me uncle.

168
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 1: But now it's like I'm talking to them like, you know,

169
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 1: like like an uncle. Now it's it's pretty cool. It's

170
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: pretty cool.

171
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 5: And so when they come in now they see that

172
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 5: right away, right.

173
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: Right, they see that right away. I'm O G. Now

174
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 1: you know, everybody they want to they want to clown

175
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: and O G. You know thirty something one time, age

176
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: thirty four in real life is is pretty you know,

177
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: pretty young. But in football it's like, yo, you're you're

178
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,400
Speaker 1: an old guy, you know what I'm saying. So they

179
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: look at me like, man, I've been through a lot

180
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: of things in the NFL, and you know, I've been

181
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: through probably what they went through other than getting a

182
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: hundred million dollars, but yeah, I've been through a lot,

183
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:10,400
Speaker 1: so they can you know, they know I've seen it already.

184
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 3: Well, you know, it's interesting when players come in the league.

185
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 3: You came in the league as a free agent with

186
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Steelers. But I don't think it matters if

187
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,800
Speaker 3: a guy comes in as a free agent or a

188
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:25,320
Speaker 3: first round draft choice. You've all been the best players

189
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 3: in college and the very best players in high school.

190
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 3: So why would you not have big dreams think of

191
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,800
Speaker 3: I can do whatever it is.

192
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 4: Why would you not.

193
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 3: Think you're gonna make hundreds and hundreds of millions of

194
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 3: dollars when you come in.

195
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 5: So at some.

196
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 3: Point that realization comes to you that Okay, I'm not

197
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:53,079
Speaker 3: gonna be that guy, but I'm this guy, And how

198
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 3: does that get to be enough?

199
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 5: That's a question you asking on.

200
00:09:58,240 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, okay, I like that one. I like that

201
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: unpacked this a little.

202
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:02,560
Speaker 4: That's while we're here.

203
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 1: Nah, this being a star in your role, just having

204
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 1: that that pride in what you do. It doesn't matter

205
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: about the hundreds of millions of dollars. I've worked the

206
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: regular job before, I've worked for every two weeks I

207
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,880
Speaker 1: was get eight hundred dollars, So I kind of understand,

208
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 1: like I would rather much rather be a star in

209
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,679
Speaker 1: this role than you know, working on a farm and

210
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 1: you know, being being a farm man, so you look

211
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 1: at it as a blessing. Uh, you know counts your

212
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:32,199
Speaker 1: blessings always. But like I said, being a star in

213
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 1: that role, whatever role it is, be the very best

214
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: at it. Uh. And I mean this is the lowest

215
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,319
Speaker 1: role in the NFL. Is you know, you look at

216
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: it like, man, it's a blessing to be here anyway,

217
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,079
Speaker 1: and you can be a star in that role absolutely

218
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: all right.

219
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,839
Speaker 6: How much do you find yourself kind of teaching that

220
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 6: to guys that come in and have that same type

221
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 6: of journey as.

222
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: You do, is you have, it's a blessing because we

223
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: have coaches that teach it as well. So I just

224
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: follow their lead and they have me in the room

225
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 1: that has been through that. So like Bones, for instance,

226
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: he's very transparent with guys. Will tell guys two days

227
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,160
Speaker 1: before the game, hey man, this is what they're saying

228
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: about you. This is probably why you're not gonna play.

229
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 1: You don't get that from a lot of coaches around

230
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 1: the league. So that's that's a blessing to have that.

231
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: And he basically saying, like yo, when you get that

232
00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:21,520
Speaker 1: hat on, do whatever you gotta do. Make sure you

233
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: don't get they don't take the hat away from you.

234
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 1: One thing that I always like to say to the

235
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: younger guys, though, is whatever got you here? Like whatever.

236
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,240
Speaker 1: If you're strong, be strong, If you're fast, be fast.

237
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 1: Anytime that you're on that field, anytime that the film

238
00:11:35,240 --> 00:11:38,040
Speaker 1: is on, you make sure that you're that guy, that

239
00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:41,560
Speaker 1: that that work that you were when they picture. So

240
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,240
Speaker 1: guy's been living by that. You know. We got a

241
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:45,360

Speaker 4: So thanks for looking that up.

270
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:19,880
Speaker 3: And and you know, it doesn't look this year like

271
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:23,640
Speaker 3: it's worked because of which it's kind of a joke

272
00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 3: because obviously mentally it's a great thing for you guys

273
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:32,800
Speaker 3: after a practice week, But what's the injury getting used to?

274
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 3: The injury stuff being everybody in the world, and by

275
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 3: the way, this is not the only team going through it,

276
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,320
Speaker 3: all right, what do you think of that?

277
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: It just hit us this year. The injury bug just

278
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,720
Speaker 1: hit us this year. It's a part of the game.

279
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:46,960
Speaker 1: You have years like that. I just wish it wasn't

280
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: this year when we really had a you know, a

281
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: good shot if everybody was happy to, you know, make

282
00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:53,920
Speaker 1: a run. But it's a part of the game.

283
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 6: What do you do as one of those leaders in

284
00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 6: this room or in this team in general, how do

285
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,440
Speaker 6: you keep the mental there, like the mental strong for

286
00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 6: this team when you are dealing with so many, so

287
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 6: many injuries.

288
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: The good thing about our team is we do have

289
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 1: a lot of young guys, so and we got a

290
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,400
Speaker 1: lot of guys free agents coming up too, So everybody's

291
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 1: playing for something. Young guys are playing for, you know,

292
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 1: more snaps. Guys are free agents, are playing for their careers.

293
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,359
Speaker 1: So it's not really hard to keep everybody going just

294
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 1: because everybody's kind of back. It's kind of against the

295
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:24,960
Speaker 1: wall right now.

296
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 3: You came in with Pittsburgh eleven years ago. There was

297
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 3: a time, and my question is going to be whether

298
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 3: you came at the tail end of it or the

299
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 3: beginning of a new time. When you understood because they

300
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 3: told you very clearly that special teams was your way

301
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,200
Speaker 3: to get onto the roster, but you didn't want to be.

302
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 5: A special teams player. That's not why you can't.

303
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,400
Speaker 3: And I just have a sense that today that's not

304
00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 3: necessarily untrue, except there are guys who.

305
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,800
Speaker 5: I think really embrace.

306
00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 3: The role of playing on special teams. Now, is that

307
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 3: a fair statement, average statement?

308
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 1: Absolutely, there's guys when everything every team has a like

309
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: a special team Jays, guys who don't get a lot

310
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:11,240
Speaker 1: of snaps on offensive defense, but that they're a guy

311
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:14,240
Speaker 1: on special teams. We highlight them. Every game. We high

312
00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 1: like three guys, they call them red red dots. So

313
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 1: every game we have three opponents on their team that's

314
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: their special team Jaces, and those guys won't see offensive

315
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,919
Speaker 1: defense stamps at all. So you embrace that role. I mean,

316
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: like I said, it's a blessing benis league. No matter

317
00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,640
Speaker 1: the capacity at your end, you just want to be here.

318
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 5: But you didn't feel that way when you signed with

319
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 5: the Steelers.

320
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: Did you. No, absolutely not. I wanted to be I

321
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: wanted to be CD Lamb for sure. Yeah. I was

322
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 1: a wide receiver, so yeah, I want.

323
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 4: Well you didn't want to be CD Lamb because four.

324
00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: No age me? Yeah, but well now I was with

325
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: Antonio Brown, so of course I wanted to be like

326
00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 1: like those guys.

327
00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,440
Speaker 6: So what was it that ultimately clicked in your head

328
00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,440
Speaker 6: and said, hey, I want to what helped you grow

329
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 6: into that embracing the role of being a special teams guy.

330
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,359
Speaker 1: That was when I went to Atlanta. That's when I

331
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: first made the roster, and special team was just something

332
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 1: that I could play. I played very well and that

333
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 1: will helped me get on the team obviously, and helped

334
00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 1: me get some snaps on defense as well. So as

335
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,120
Speaker 1: long as I'm on the team, I mean, I don't

336
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: care what it is. But then what switched for me

337
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: is after Leonard released me, I got to another team.

338
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,880
Speaker 1: I can't remember. I went Arizona. Yeah you don't want

339
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 1: to me, but yeah, I went to Arizona and that

340
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,960
Speaker 1: was just my role. Like I didn't even really practice dB.

341
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 1: Then I got to Dallas. Played a little dB here

342
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:35,919
Speaker 1: and there, but there was.

343
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 4: A little Cincinnati sprinkled in there somewhere, wasn't there.

344
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 1: Oh yeah that was on Yeah, that was on practice.

345
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: But that was why I didn't make the roster because

346
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:45,240
Speaker 1: I didn't play a lot at corner. So you know,

347
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I was a special team guy. Luckily they

348
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,119
Speaker 1: had a great special teams coach as well and h

349
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: and Simmons that the league's name is, but he wanted

350
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: me on the team. But you know, it happened going

351
00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,239
Speaker 1: on practice squad. Then Dallas picked me up off their

352
00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:05,439
Speaker 1: practice squad KO specifically for special teams. Yeah yeah, and

353
00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:08,639
Speaker 1: then uh, you know I kind of flourished that special teams,

354
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 1: but you know, still play a little bit of the

355
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: corner if need be. Then when the new staff got here,

356
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 1: it was like, hey, that's what you do. Make sure

357
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,040
Speaker 1: the locker room is good, and you know, just do

358
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: what you do.

359
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 3: Before I forget this because I was literally thinking about

360
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:32,199
Speaker 3: this today that you are a great example of making uh,

361
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,399
Speaker 3: the way you put it was great being a star

362
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 3: at understanding your role being a role player. Now, once

363
00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 3: upon a time that was a curse you called someone

364
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 3: a role player. You just insulted, right, am I right?

365
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 1: You are right.

366
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:50,440
Speaker 3: But but you are the best example I know of

367
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:54,159
Speaker 3: of someone who said, Okay, I have a role and

368
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:57,200
Speaker 3: I will make that role a big deal.

369
00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 5: Was that a process? Is that something that came naturally

370
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:01,879
Speaker 5: to you? Did you have to learn it?

371
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 1: Now? It's a it's a process. It's definitely a process. Cause,

372
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 1: like you said, you wanna be, you know, a star,

373
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: you wanna be a the a offensive defensive guy, it

374
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,679
Speaker 1: may not shake out for you. So I'm gonna be

375
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,520
Speaker 1: the best at whatever I do. And thankfully I played

376
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,280
Speaker 1: well enough that I'm considered one of the best at

377
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 1: what I do. So anybody, if you're here and you

378
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 1: get at him and on Sunday, go be the best

379
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,920
Speaker 1: at whatever it is. If you're a if you're a snapper,

380
00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:32,760
Speaker 1: if you're a holder, be the best. So, I mean,

381
00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,720
Speaker 1: that's just that's just the process that you have to

382
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:35,080
Speaker 1: go through.

383
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:37,840
Speaker 5: Who changed you from wide receiver to quarterback?

384
00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 1: Atlanta? His name was Mark Watmanuel. He was the dB coach.

385
00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:51,119
Speaker 1: Week seventeen of twenty fifteen. I was running the route

386
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 1: and I broke down pretty good whatever, and he was like, man,

387
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 1: whyon't you like the fastest way you can get on

388
00:21:59,000 --> 00:21:59,560
Speaker 1: the field.

389
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 5: Is he's the dB coach.

390
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 3: So that's like being in high school and you might

391
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:05,440
Speaker 3: be a really good football player.

392
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,600
Speaker 5: But the basketball coach, he said, you know what you

393
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 5: ought to do. You ought to come over here and

394
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 5: play basketball.

395
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 1: It was the reverse for me. I did yeah, but

396
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: he moved me from offensive defense and that next year

397
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:18,840
Speaker 1: I ended up making the team.

398
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 6: Where did you What did you like playing better wide

399
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 6: receiver cornerback? Which one? I know you said you want

400
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:26,399
Speaker 6: to be a seed lamb.

401
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 1: No, No, I actually I like playing corner way better. Yeah.

402
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: I would much rather hit somebody than get hit. I

403
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 1: don't know how to do this. He's just getting teed

404
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: off one like that. It's crazy.

405
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, before we get away from Pittsburgh. This is

406
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:42,520
Speaker 3: a part of the story you have told many times,

407
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,840
Speaker 3: but I think it's so great. One of the greatest

408
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,520
Speaker 3: cornerbacks that ever played the game, Mel Blunt, Hall of Famer.

409
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:50,880
Speaker 3: I still think you might have been the best cornerback

410
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,040
Speaker 3: I've ever seen because he was. He's he's like six

411
00:22:55,359 --> 00:23:00,160
Speaker 3: five still, Yeah, it's still but I mean he was

412
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 3: built when he played. He was built like a linebacker,

413
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 3: not like a cornerback. And he would hit you and

414
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 3: you stayed hip till two weeks from now, right right?

415
00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:10,479
Speaker 7: Uh.

416
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:12,679
Speaker 4: He influenced you in other.

417
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:16,440
Speaker 5: Ways than football. Yeah, yeah, tell that story places very much.

418
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: So. He's he's like like a guardian angel for me,

419
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:25,160
Speaker 1: I guess and my family. Our families are really close.

420
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:30,199
Speaker 1: But he my first encounter with him, my brother and

421
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: his middle son are the same age. So they played

422
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: on the same AAU basketball team. And I was at

423
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,199
Speaker 1: the game watching him and he seen me. I had

424
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: two ear rings in and I was sagging my pants

00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,360
Speaker 1: then it was legal, I don't know how, but now

429
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,880

Speaker 1: on my farm.

435
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 3: Now was this just because he saw you and there

436
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 3: was something about your appearance that to him didn't go

437
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 3: with what he thought you could be.

438
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,320
Speaker 1: It had to be because he didn't He didn't know

439
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,119
Speaker 1: me other than from my brother, and you know, he

440
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:21,119
Speaker 1: didn't he never spoke to me before, so it had

441
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 1: to be something. But he said, I'll give you the job,

442
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 1: but first you got to take your ear rings out

443
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:28,440
Speaker 1: and pull your pants up. I was like, I never

444
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:33,120
Speaker 1: wore ear rings again. Yeah, but yeah, So I worked

445
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,640
Speaker 1: for him on the farm for a year. It was

446
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,919
Speaker 1: it was some labor you bailed hay. Yeah, yeah, we

447
00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 1: did all that. I was more cutting grass and attending

448
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: to the horses. We did some stuff with the cows.

449
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 1: I don't know what it's called, but I'm from West Virginia,

450
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: but I fancied myself a city yet.

451
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:51,480
Speaker 5: But you shoveled out some stalls.

452
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 1: I did all that. Yeah, I did all that. Yeah,

453
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,439
Speaker 1: And it was it was fun. It was. It was

454
00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:57,159
Speaker 1: actually funny because you got to be around horses, you

455
00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,520
Speaker 1: got to see their personalities and whatnot, and it was

456
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,360
Speaker 1: it was cool. And then it was on a youth home,

457
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: so he was a boy's home. So he put me

458
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: up there as a youth counselor for six years after that,

459
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,200
Speaker 1: so I worked him seven years total.

460
00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:12,960
Speaker 3: So the guy you are the CD Lamb today, that's

461
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 3: who you were back then when you were a youth counselor.

462
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm not influential to CD, but yeah,

463
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 1: I'll take that. I'll take that. I mean that's where

464
00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 1: it started, right, Okay, Yes, yes, how.

465
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,200
Speaker 6: Much did you enjoy that working with mel?

466
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,080
Speaker 1: It was, man, it was, it was actually cool. Because

467
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: he's a real down to earth guy and his wife

468
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 1: is just a bottle of fun too. So this is

469
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 1: a great family.

470
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,440
Speaker 6: And when you look back at just the fact that

471
00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:40,920
Speaker 6: he saw something in you, how much do you appreciate

472
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 6: that now that you are older.

473
00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,000
Speaker 1: That's a that's a blessing. Man. You gotta, you know,

474
00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:48,880
Speaker 1: pay that forward. You gotta pay that forward. I mean,

475
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 1: he wanted to fire me plenty of time, but his

476
00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 1: wife saved me so many times. Yeah, okay.

477
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,720
Speaker 6: And he also came into play obviously later in your

478
00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 6: career in Pittsford, obviously needing m call. Yes, I know,

479
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:05,760
Speaker 6: we'll get to that in a second. Okay, stories go ahead.

480
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 4: We're on that track. We'll take our break in a

481
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 4: minute after.

482
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, you were obviously trying to get an

483
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,160
Speaker 6: opportunity to play at the NFL level, and he made

484
00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 6: the call to Pittsburgh just to on your behalf in

485
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:21,960
Speaker 6: order to get you there. What does that mean to you?

486
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 2: Then?

487
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,720
Speaker 1: I am at the world because he never seen me

488
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: play football. He just heard that I was pretty good.

489
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: He heard that I was a pretty good athlete. He

490
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,560
Speaker 1: knew my numbers from the Pro day, and he knew

491
00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,080
Speaker 1: I was getting other calls from different teams, but nothing materialized.

492
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 1: So he made the call just because of what he

493
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: thought my character was. He was like, man, I can

494
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:42,360
Speaker 1: put my name behind this guy because I know he's

495
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: a good dude. He just made the call. Nothing was promised,

496
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 1: of course, and he was like, man, you just get

497
00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: a workout and whatever happens happened. And I didn't. I

498
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 1: didn't get signed that day, but I remember, like yesterday

499
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: I got the call voicemail saying I can get up here.

500
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 6: Toldy min Walk if I need to do you have

533
00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 5: Slater, right, all right?

534
00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: Yeah Slater and Slater was a you know, a great

535
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,600
Speaker 1: competitor when we played, A real humble dude, very nice dude,

536
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 1: and every time we played against each other, man, it

537
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: was always a great matchup. I got points from me

538
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:52,480
Speaker 1: out of town. There's a few guys, Rudy from he

539
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 1: was with Green Bay, Rudy number twenty out there. It

540
00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:58,920
Speaker 1: was a good friend of mine as well. I mean,

541
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:00,520
Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys you probably want of the names,

542
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 1: but these are really good, really good guys to play against.

543
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 4: But if I had more to go on than Rudy.

544
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,280
Speaker 1: Them trying to think of his last name, that's he's

545
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: gonna be mad at me when I tell him I

546
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,360
Speaker 1: forgot his name after this. But and J. T. Gray

547
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 1: from uh, New Orleans, he's a really good uh he's

548
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 1: a Pro Bowl guy almost every year. He's really good.

549
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 1: There's a lot of guys, man, I like guys at

550
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,000
Speaker 1: my position that was a you know that run gunner

551
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: and all that. So those those guys right there, man

552
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,720
Speaker 1: a really good dude. The romant.

553
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 3: When we had Hunter Lipke here a few weeks ago,

554
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 3: we're in number forty, and I asked him if he'd

555
00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,640
Speaker 3: ever heard of Bill Bates, and he of course he

556
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 3: hadn't because he's you know, he's fifteen years old. But

557
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 3: Bill Bates was now he was a safety. He played

558
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,200
Speaker 3: safety at Tennessee and he was He came into the

559
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:55,160
Speaker 3: team as a free agent. He was a safety, but

560
00:32:55,520 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 3: then he was the first Pro Bowls Special teams.

561
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 5: Player in the league.

562
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 3: They created the special team's Pro Bowl spot for Bill Bates. Wow,

563
00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,880
Speaker 3: because of how good Tom Landry was. The head coach

564
00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,400
Speaker 3: put him on special teams. Did a little punt returning,

565
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:14,880
Speaker 3: but he wasn't really a punt returner.

566
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:15,239
Speaker 1: He was.

567
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 5: He was just a demon.

568
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he and smart, you know when you say

569
00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:22,440
Speaker 3: Slater that. And now there's a bunch of those guys.

570
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 3: So what I need I need you to play another

571
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 3: year or two because I want so. The Cowboys have

572
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 3: a wall just outside their locker room where every player

573
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 3: who's ever played in a Pro Bowl that would be

574
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 3: the Pro Bowl Games, but has been picked for the

575
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 3: Pro Bowl, his name and the years are up there.

576
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 3: And I think Bill Bates and Jim Schwantz are those

577
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 3: the only two scott who were Cowboys.

578
00:33:48,760 --> 00:33:49,680
Speaker 5: So I need to see C. J.

579
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 4: Goodwin up there because I think you've earned that.

580
00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:56,720
Speaker 1: I've been an alternate a few times, probably four times alternate,

581
00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 1: never never made the never made the cut. But I'm

582
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 1: not too worried about the program. I want to win

583
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 1: a Super Bowl.

584
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 5: I understand. I understand.

585
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:05,480
Speaker 3: Those are all things that happen when the team is

586
00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 3: good and there's only so much you can control that

587
00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 3: you just have to control your own position. The young

588
00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:18,320
Speaker 3: men coming into the league, you touched on this earlier,

589
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,479
Speaker 3: but I'm interested to know the young men coming into

590
00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:28,880
Speaker 3: the league now, are they more eager to be to

591
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 3: embrace the role of playing special teams? I think immediately

592
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:36,760
Speaker 3: Janie Thomas and marquispell coming in together. Once upon a time,

593
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:40,800
Speaker 3: Everson Walls, who's a great cornerback. He and Michael Downs

594
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 3: were rookie free agent safeties both from Dallas, who made

595
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 3: the team the same year as rookie free agents because

596
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,439
Speaker 3: of what they did in preseason on special teams. That

597
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,839
Speaker 3: do you see guys more eager to embrace the role now?

598
00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 1: Absolutely? Yeah, Absolutely, That's just the culture that Bones carried.

599
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,319
Speaker 1: It really is like he makes it fun to be

600
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 1: on special teams. Uh, even even Mike he emphasized the

601
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: special team. We have a special team award. It's people

602
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,279
Speaker 1: are embracing that role when people actually want to be

603
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:14,280
Speaker 1: stars in that role, like Marquis bar If he wouldn't

604
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 1: have got hurt. He'd have been a Pro Bowl guy

605
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 1: this year. Just but I mean, it would have been

606
00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:20,359
Speaker 1: hands down, he'd have been in the Pro Bowl. It's

607
00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: just I mean, like I said, Bones, he curates that

608
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:26,879
Speaker 1: that type of vibe man, that energy, like it's never

609
00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:29,360
Speaker 1: a dull moment in there. And he knows that this

610
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,640
Speaker 1: is not people's dream to play Special Teams, so he

611
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 1: makes it like fun, you know, like his meetings are

612
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,120
Speaker 1: always fun. He's always knocking on somebody or he's always

613
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,480
Speaker 1: got a trick up his sleeve. It's it's always just

614
00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:39,960
Speaker 1: a good time.

615
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,399
Speaker 6: I love how you mentioned Bones because that's everyone who

616
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 6: plays Special Teams obviously talks about the culture like you

617
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 6: mentioned that he's created and how much confidence he instills

618
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,120
Speaker 6: in every one of those guys in his in that room.

619
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:52,720
Speaker 6: How much confidence has.

620
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 1: He instilled in you, uh, the utmost confidence man. He

621
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 1: instilled confidence by placing me in the leadership ro Like, no,

622
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 1: I have to be confident, and then what I do

623
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 1: is because those guys are looking at me for their

624
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 1: confidence sometimes. So you know, we had a rough game yesterday,

625
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:14,200
Speaker 1: but Special Team not gonna quit, Like We're not gonna

626
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:15,839
Speaker 1: do that We're still gonna run all the way down

627
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,200
Speaker 1: the field as hard as we can, just because like

628
00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 1: that's our culture. We're gonna fight. They're gonna throw thirty flags,

629
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:23,719
Speaker 1: but that's our culture. We are. We are going to

630
00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:24,279
Speaker 1: fight to the end.

631
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:25,879
Speaker 3: What I was gonna say, as a matter of fact,

632
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 3: you're not gonna quit. Matter of fact, we might be

633
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 3: at the end of the game and maybe nearly over,

634
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,200
Speaker 3: and all of a sudden there may be a fight

635
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 3: carrying right up to time.

636
00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,239
Speaker 5: Where were you on the field? Weather broke out, and

637
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:39,240
Speaker 5: what did you see?

638
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 1: I could have I actually could have been over there

639
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: first after the three guys.

640
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 5: Well you're too smart for that now.

641
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:46,440
Speaker 1: Now it was just like, oh, we got it. It's

642
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,440
Speaker 1: two against one. We're gonna win that one. So I

643
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:49,840
Speaker 1: just start running.

644
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:50,479
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying.

645
00:36:50,520 --> 00:36:52,440
Speaker 4: Seven years ago, you'd have been in a dead spring.

646
00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,040
Speaker 1: Seven years ago, I've been run over there. I got yeah,

647
00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:57,400
Speaker 1: I got thrown out too, for sure. But I was

648
00:36:57,520 --> 00:36:59,759
Speaker 1: like jogging over there, hopefully they was gonna stop. And

649
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 1: then I've just seen a whole bunch of flags flying

650
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:03,280
Speaker 1: the air, So I just start running up the flags

651
00:37:03,280 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 1: trying to catch them. It was just It was fun.

652
00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 1: I mean it was fun until it got a little

653
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 1: ugly and then you know, we got it off spread apart.

654
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 6: So they're over there brawling, you over there trying to

655
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:12,240
Speaker 6: catch flags.

656
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:13,120
Speaker 1: You think I.

657
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 3: Did not last eleven years and more to come running

658
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,200
Speaker 3: into a burning building.

659
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 1: If it was two against one on their side, like

660
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,040
Speaker 1: and it was one of us and two of them,

661
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 1: I would have broke it up. But it was we

662
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 1: had it.

663
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,799
Speaker 5: Have you looked back at the play, Yeah, what what

664
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:34,680
Speaker 5: do you think of it?

665
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,320
Speaker 1: It was just a football play. I think it's just people,

666
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: you know, getting aggressively. I mean, if I got to

667
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: go on me and you had that all the time, yeah,

668
00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to fight too. And then once they get breaked,

669
00:37:46,120 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 1: once we like breaking up and it is what it is.

670
00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,160
Speaker 1: But I mean, temples were flying. It's a part of again.

671
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 3: But young mister Brown had nothing to be number twenty

672
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:54,480
Speaker 3: one for the Eagles.

673
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:56,319
Speaker 4: He he didn't have anything to be angry about.

674
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:57,239
Speaker 5: They were winning big.

675
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:02,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you're not gonna, let know, like pushing go. Yeah,

676
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 1: I'm not. Nobody was mad, like it's just part of

677
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 1: the game. No, I mean, it was just a fights

678
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 1: happening all the time in football. It's a part of

679
00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 1: the game.

680
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,560
Speaker 6: I want to get back to Bones real quick fast

681
00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,960
Speaker 6: because something that also Brandon Aubry had told me that

682
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 6: as a kicker, if you mess up, he's there to

683
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 6: fight for you. And just having a coach like that,

684
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 6: what does that mean for you?

685
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:25,680
Speaker 1: Man? It will take the blame for something that's truly

686
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,480
Speaker 1: not his folk. He does it all the time. He's

687
00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:31,080
Speaker 1: just a he's just a good dude. Like forget that

688
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 1: he's a great coach obviously, but he's just honestly just

689
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,239
Speaker 1: a really good dude. And it's it's weird because you'll

690
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,439
Speaker 1: never see have a bad day. Like he's been through

691
00:38:38,440 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 1: some some things too, some rough things like in front

692
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:45,120
Speaker 1: of us, and like it's just always just a good

693
00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 1: spirit man, Like I'll always go to bad for Bones,

694
00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 1: like even when I'm not a cowboy, Like he's just

695
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 1: a like he's just a great guy.

696
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,280
Speaker 6: He does always have a good spirit about it throughout

697
00:38:54,320 --> 00:38:55,399
Speaker 6: the building. I love that about him.

698
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,760
Speaker 4: Have you seen him get chewed out and just stand

699
00:38:57,800 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 4: there and take it?

700
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:02,479
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, And one of them was my foulk too. Yeah,

701
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 1: the Atlanta the non stop I could have I could

702
00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,799
Speaker 1: have did better than what I did. But he got you,

703
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:11,160
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, he got you out after after the

704
00:39:11,200 --> 00:39:14,560
Speaker 1: game in the locker room and like I was going

705
00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 1: to go over there like it's my fault, but he

706
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 1: kind of like pushed me back. Yeah, and just and

707
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:20,719
Speaker 1: just took it and was like, man, it's part of

708
00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:21,040
Speaker 1: the game.

709
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 3: He he understands. He's talked about that publicly that he understands.

710
00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:28,440
Speaker 3: If if there's something like a trick play and it works,

711
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,879
Speaker 3: then uh, way to go a head coach for letting

712
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,319
Speaker 3: that go right right, And if it doesn't work, then

713
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 3: the special teams coach is an idiot.

714
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: Yeah it wasn't the head coach, by the way, but yeah,

715
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 1: I understand.

716
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 5: But it's the same prensi, same principle.

717
00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:49,840
Speaker 3: So do you think on balance for the group your group,

718
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,759
Speaker 3: has this been a good year for special or for

719
00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:57,279
Speaker 3: special teams or a year a little less than what

720
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:58,040
Speaker 3: you would have liked.

721
00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:02,279
Speaker 1: I mean, scored two touchdowns, we have three. We have

722
00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 1: three special team touchdowns this year. I don't know any

723
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:10,040
Speaker 1: other year that that happened in for the Dallas Cowboys.

724
00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,319
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know how you and I think

725
00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: turf is on the on the pace the breaker record

726
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:18,319
Speaker 1: on kick return. I don't know how we can say

727
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,520
Speaker 1: that was a bad year, but I mean we haven't

728
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:21,840
Speaker 1: let up any touchdown.

729
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:23,440
Speaker 3: By the way, for the record, I would like the

730
00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,799
Speaker 3: jury to recognize that I never said the word bad.

731
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:28,479
Speaker 4: I never saw bad.

732
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,440
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, but if it's not great, then it's

733
00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: bad to me.

734
00:40:32,200 --> 00:40:33,840
Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, okay, yeah.

735
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 1: But I think we had a I think we had

736
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:38,839
Speaker 1: a good year. And we fight and we always will fight,

737
00:40:38,880 --> 00:40:39,600
Speaker 1: and we'll fight to it in.

738
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 3: One of the things Bones brought with him is a

739
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:45,800
Speaker 3: reputation for trick plays.

740
00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,040
Speaker 4: Uh. They're genius when they.

741
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 3: Work, and you know it's it's it's like any play

742
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:56,040
Speaker 3: on offense, right, it's a great Cowboys had an offensive

743
00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,600
Speaker 3: coordinator back a couple of decades ago, one of the

744
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 3: greatest offensive coaches ever in the league, Ernie's MPs. Ernie

745
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 3: used to say, I asked him one to ask it

746
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:05,759
Speaker 3: or what what what?

747
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,320
Speaker 5: What's a good call to you?

748
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:11,680
Speaker 3: He said, if it works, And we all know you

749
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 3: can have a brilliant call that doesn't work, but for Ernie, no,

750
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 3: it doesn't work. So if there's a fake punt, uh,

751
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 3: and it doesn't get a first down, and you know,

752
00:41:21,400 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 3: lead to it, then it was a bad play. I mean,

753
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:27,479
Speaker 3: how so there have been a few of those this year,

754
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:32,960
Speaker 3: But how do you view that in gauging whether the

755
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:36,239
Speaker 3: year has been as successful as you all would like

756
00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,320
Speaker 3: it or a little bit less.

757
00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:43,439
Speaker 1: That's just that's being aggressive. I don't. I don't see

758
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 1: anything wrong with it at all. So that's why I don't.

759
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 1: I mean, just because they didn't work doesn't mean we

760
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,160
Speaker 1: didn't have a great year. We had great We had

761
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:52,719
Speaker 1: a great year doing everything else I've been in the

762
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,040
Speaker 1: chick plade that we had. There's a lot of things

763
00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,399
Speaker 1: that you know, people will overlook the fact that Turp

764
00:41:58,480 --> 00:41:59,399
Speaker 1: did that spind move.

765
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 4: It was crazy.

766
00:42:01,640 --> 00:42:04,880
Speaker 1: That's an all time play right there. I mean, we

767
00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:09,440
Speaker 1: did a lot of great things. So three fakes that

768
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:12,719
Speaker 1: didn't work, it's not gonna less than an impact that

769
00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:15,360
Speaker 1: we had on trying to help our team with.

770
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:16,880
Speaker 5: By the way, that was in Washington.

771
00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 4: And of course right before the spin move he muffed

772
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 4: the kick.

773
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:22,920
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, How did that.

774
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:24,879
Speaker 4: Come up in conversation with him when you guys broke

775
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:25,200
Speaker 4: it down?

776
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:33,640
Speaker 1: Is how do you say this? Like PG Turf is insane,

777
00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:38,080
Speaker 1: He's insane, Like to think like yo. All these dudes

778
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,040
Speaker 1: are going one hundred miles literally twenty two miles an

779
00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:41,839
Speaker 1: hour trying to hit me as hard as they can.

780
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,120

Speaker 1: like that.

784
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,000

858
00:49:36,680 --> 00:49:37,480

959
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,839
Speaker 11: to go in the break the back rooms when you

960
00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:00,480
Speaker 11: guys are getting done with the games and they're a

961
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:04,400
Speaker 11: tough loss, when there's the media trying to separate y'all

962
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:07,400
Speaker 11: and say, this person's against this person, this person gets that.

963
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:09,480
Speaker 11: How do you deal with that? What do you do

964
00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:12,120
Speaker 11: as a mentor to your team mates to kind of

965
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:13,920
Speaker 11: not go in the drama?

966
00:54:14,040 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 4: See, the best question of the year is the last

967
00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:17,239
Speaker 4: question we take.

968
00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:20,480
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, you're trying to really do me thirty Okay, Now,

969
00:54:20,520 --> 00:54:23,800
Speaker 1: we're all media trained. We're all media trained. Though we

970
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,360
Speaker 1: have the best media people. Shout out to Scott, I

00:54:26,400 --> 00:54:28,240
Speaker 1: see you back there. Yeah, we have the best media

972
00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:30,440

973
00:54:30,800 --> 00:54:32,920
Speaker 1: I mean, it's the Cowboys over the biggest teams. We're

974
00:54:32,920 --> 00:54:35,960
Speaker 1: all kind of media trained, but you know, we just

975
00:54:36,000 --> 00:54:39,920
Speaker 1: support each other. The one thing that coach always needs

976
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:41,799
Speaker 1: with no matter what type of game, good or bad,

977
00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:44,480
Speaker 1: he always says, protecting teammates. He don't care about anything

978
00:54:44,480 --> 00:54:46,600
Speaker 1: else but protect your teammates and the media. So that's

979
00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 1: what we do.

980
00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 3: And how do you learn to Sometimes we have to

981
00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:56,160
Speaker 3: ask questions that are uncomfortable, but they have to be asked.

982
00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:59,080
Speaker 3: And that doesn't mean you like hearing them. What do

983
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,839
