1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,239 Speaker 1: Joined out by wide receiver and we I like to say, matey, 2 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: welcome to the NFL. It came against the Denver Broncos 3 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: Alec Pierce eight catches eighty one yards. You got a 4 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 1: quarterback looking for you. You've proven that you can take 5 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: the ball down the field for a lot of yardage 6 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,920 Speaker 1: and stuff, something that this offense is missing. What's been 7 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 1: the click? When did it start that you said, Hey, 8 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:20,439 Speaker 1: I can stay here. I know I asked you this 9 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: at the end of training camp, but hey, I belong 10 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: here and I make plays here. Yeah, I think, you know, 11 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 1: after having week one, um, I think I went out there. 12 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: You know, Week two I was out with the concussion. 13 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 1: But after that, you know, going into week three, I 14 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: kind of just told myself I was gonna go out 15 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: there and just and just let it loose and just play, 16 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:38,960 Speaker 1: you know like I always didn't, and just have fun, 17 00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: you know, and just play loose. Hey, I gotta go 18 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,280 Speaker 1: back to it. And it just shows that, you know, 19 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: you're a strong minded athlete as well as an elite one. 20 00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 1: That first one that dropped that people are talking about, Hey, 21 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:49,480 Speaker 1: you got to get it out of your system. Stuff 22 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,480 Speaker 1: like that. As a rookie, it came in. How long 23 00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: did you sit on that? You know, it's probably the day, 24 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: you know, happened the night of, and then I woke 25 00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: up the next day, you know, and I told myself, 26 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: I want you know, I was, I was gonna make 27 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: something else, just like the great ones. Man, just like 28 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,839 Speaker 1: the great ones. I'm telling you talk to Peyton Manning 29 00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: about his first few clicks in the NFL Alec Pierce. 30 00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: Now you talk about confidence you had, as Jeffrey said, 31 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: eight catches for a career high eighty one receiving yards 32 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: on Thursday Night football last week in Denver? What did 33 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: that game do for your confidence? And what do you 34 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: think that game did for Matt Ryan's confidence in you? 35 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: Three big catches on that final drive of regulation to 36 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,320 Speaker 1: set up the Colts with the game tying field goal. Yeah. 37 00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: You know, for me, you know, I just kind of 38 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 1: proved to myself that the things that I already felt 39 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 1: in New you know, that I can that I can 40 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: go out there and make plays at this level. Um 41 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: And then I think, hopefully for the team, I think 42 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: it's just you know, build confidence with the quarterback that 43 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: you know, I'm a guy that he can throw the 44 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: ball too. And you know not hopefully I'm gonna come 45 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 1: down with it. You know, he's gonna he's not gonna 46 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 1: be worried about the defense making him play. It's either 47 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,559 Speaker 1: gonna be me or nobody. Yeah. Yeah, that's Alec Pierce 48 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: with US rookie wide receiver for the Colts, second round 49 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 1: draft pick out of Cincinnati. So your four games in 50 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 1: for yourself, what are the biggest differences in the action 51 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: in the speed compared to college football? Now here with 52 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: the NFL and then and coupling with that, where do 53 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: you think the game has slowed down for you through 54 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: about a quarter of the season. Um, yeah, I think 55 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 1: it's a lot different from college. You know, in college, 56 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: I think a lot of times I was getting a 57 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: lot of man coverage, a lot of press. So it's 58 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: just you know, gone out there. You don't have to 59 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,520 Speaker 1: identify much of the defense. You just gotta go out 60 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: there and just trying to beat the man in front 61 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: of you. It's a lot more I've gotten a lot 62 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,080 Speaker 1: more off coverage this year and kind of zone looks, 63 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 1: so you gotta you know, there's more thinking involved with it, 64 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: so kind of got to think more as a receiver 65 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 1: and you know, diagnosed defense and adjust your route based 66 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: on that. Is that a huge difference from college to 67 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: the pros When it comes to having a dB trying 68 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 1: to lock you down one on one. You faced a 69 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 1: lot of man coverage in college. You're you face a 70 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: lot of man coverage in this offense as well, due 71 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 1: to the fact that sometimes they're double team and eleven 72 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: in that. But those players completely different from the college 73 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 1: of the pro level. And are they're more handsy on you? 74 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 1: Are there more? You know? What I'm saying is are 75 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: they more leaning as far as getting hands up in 76 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 1: your face? These dbs? Um, I don't. I'm gonna say 77 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 1: the opposite, because I think there's there's different rules for 78 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: the NFL. They definitely call a lot more. I know, 79 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: college they can kind of like ride you the whole way. 80 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 1: They can, you know, put hands on you the whole way, 81 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: whereas NFL, like technically they're not supposed to put hand 82 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: five or five. Yeah, but I mean it doesn't always 83 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: get called, but they have to be if they do, 84 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: it has to be a lot more subtle. You know. 85 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: They can't be just blatantly trying to, you know, rough 86 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: you up at fifteen yards down the field. So yeah, 87 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: definitely kind of a little bit of different techniques. Um. Yeah, 88 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: so I'm getting used to that. Yeah, I can tell 89 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 1: that like Paris Jones us right now, when do you 90 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: think that Matt Ryan? When when did that come to 91 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 1: Matt Ryan, the leader of this offense that says, hey, 92 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: I got a good one out there in fourteen and 93 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: I'm not afraid to go to them. When did that 94 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: trust happen? Um? You know, I hope it just keeps 95 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 1: on building every week. I mean, I'm not sure if 96 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: there's been an exact moment um. I'd like to say, 97 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:50,680 Speaker 1: I thought I camp I was trying to, you know, 98 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: go out there every day, improved, improved to the offense. Um, 99 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: But I'm I'm not sure if they I couldn't pinpoint 100 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: the exact moment. And you know, hopefully, well it's on. Man, 101 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: it's eight verse eighty one versus Denver, it's on. I 102 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: want to go back to last Thursday for you, your 103 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 1: first NFL primetime game. What was that like playing under 104 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 1: the lights for you? Oh? It was it was awesome 105 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: As an incredible moment um. I love playing at night 106 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: you know, I love playing those nighttime games. I know 107 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: they're wearing the NFL um But yeah, it was super cool. 108 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: You know, it was a great atmosphere out there in Denver. 109 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 1: Super cool to see that stadium. So that how difficult 110 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 1: was it for you playing those those two games in 111 00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 1: five days physically on your body to get ready for 112 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: that Thursday night game. Physically on my body? It wasn't 113 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: as bad. I'm sure there's a lot of other guys, 114 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: um just being younger and not having the probably snapcount 115 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: that some guys have, but um, it was. It was 116 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: definitely a lot. Mentally, just a fact like we we 117 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: just did walk throughs all week. We didn't do a 118 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: full speed practice unless you know, that's what guys needed 119 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: to do. You know, normally our first full speed practice 120 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 1: the weeks on Wednesday. You can't. We can't do that 121 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: the day before the game. We're packing up and flying 122 00:04:56,839 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 1: on Wednesday. So we just did three walk throughs and 123 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: mentally we were able to get those rets. But just 124 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: you know, physically, is that the first time you're actually 125 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 1: running those roused and catching the ball wasn't it was 126 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: in the game. So like what's the night before games 127 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: like for you, you know, we haven't just seen in 128 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: the routine we do. Uh, I'm talking about personally. I 129 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 1: know you've got coaches meetings. I know you got, but 130 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: you preparing for the game at this level. Yeah.

Good for you, 147 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: What a great story that is.

Uh, it's midweek right now. I 150 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,360 Speaker 1: got the Jaguars, a team that that didn't allow any 151 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 1: points to this offense, and uh, you know what you're 152 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: looking for early on in the week facing this team. 153 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: It's on the flip side right at Lucas Oil Stadium. Yeah, 154 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 1: you know, they're they're incredibly talented team. You know, I 155 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: was down there watching the game when we played them 156 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: in didn't scorning points. You know, they really get up front, 157 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 1: they get after the quarterback and then Yeah, they're just 158 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 1: an incredibly talented team. And I think a team that's 159 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 1: kind of up and coming. You know, they got a 160 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 1: good a lot of good young players. So um, we 161 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: just got to you know, lock in this week and 162 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: and do our best to prepare for that. It's Alec 163 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: Pierce with US rookie wide receiver for the Indianapolis Colts. 164 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: I know you talked about this during training camp, going 165 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: up head to head with Stefan Gilmour every single day 166 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: and how much better that made you. How much is 167 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: that paying off for you, you know, five games into 168 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: your rookie season. Oh, it's paid off a ton. You know, 169 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 1: he's he gave a great look every day in practice. Um, 170 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,160 Speaker 1: just kind of learning the way he plays. I feel like, 171 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: you know, he's probably a guy that a lot of 172 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:07,919 Speaker 1: corners look up too, So a lot of guys probably 173 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: study his technique and try to play like him because 174 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: of how much success he's had. So because I have 175 00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 1: noticed a lot of a lot of corners kind of 176 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: play that that same kind of technique he plays at 177 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: the line, so and that was something that was pretty 178 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: new to me. I've never really seen a lot of 179 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 1: like softer press. So it definitely, you know, was great 180 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: to have those those weeks against him because I kind 181 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: of learned how to attack that and what to work 182 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 1: with and you know what's not gonna work. And when 183 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: he shuts down a player like Courtland Sutton and gets 184 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,200 Speaker 1: a pick in the end zone and gets the game 185 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: winning past defence there on fourth Downd, he just on 186 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 1: the sideline, you just say, see, yeah, yeah, it happens 187 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: to other people. The guy's pretty good, right, Yeah, It definitely. 188 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: It definitely makes you feel better about yourself. Now everyone's 189 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: gone through it, so I love it. That's Alec Pierce 190 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: just off the field a little bit. Do you read 191 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: do you read the papers, Do you read the internet? 192 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: Do you read about this football team? Do you read 193 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 1: about what you're saying about you individually? No, honestly, I 194 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: don't really much. No, no, maybe if maybe, if somebody 195 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: send it to me. Um, But now I don't really 196 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 1: go out like searching and all that. Gotcha. We'll keep 197 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 1: on the great path. And like I said, great, great start, 198 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: early start to your NFL career, talking rookie records along 199 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: the way, Alec Peerce maytag got one more, and I'm 200 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 1: gonna let you finish this because I love this about 201 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: this kid. He's world class. I said it. He's world 202 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: class when it comes to volleyball. Alec Pearce, if he 203 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: committed to volleyball, would be playing at the highest level 204 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 1: right now. But obviously I'm glad you switched and went 205 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: to the NFL. But a little fun fact about you, 206 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: Midwest kid, great at volleyball and your love for the 207 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: game and one state championship right in high school, right yeah, 208 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: talk it up. But if we weren't undefeated that year, 209 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,480 Speaker 1: I think we lost one game, but we had one match, right, 210 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,200 Speaker 1: one match? Yeah, and we were you know, we were 211 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: really good team. Uh, pretty much everyone on the team 212 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: one on the d one volleyball except for me. Yeah, 213 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: you and one other way you were going somewhere else. 214 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: That's awesome. I love the story. That's very cool. Now, 215 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 1: did you how how attracted at an early age were 216 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 1: you to volleyball and and how how much did you 217 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,400 Speaker 1: you fall in love with that sport over time? Yeah, 218 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: so my my mom actually played volleyball at Northwestern UM, 219 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: so she just kind of early on, like I enjoyed 220 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: playing like we'd play like Pepper who was just like 221 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: passing the ball around and I always loved, you know, 222 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 1: doing that and playing that and kind of grew into 223 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: I think middle school we had a we had a 224 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: team from middle school and started playing that started playing 225 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: some club outside of outside of the school. Oh yeah, 226 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: So it was kind of really into pretty early for 227 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: for volleyball. I know a lot of kids probably just 228 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: would start in high school because it's not like a 229 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: really kind of main sport. But that's probably why we 230 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,720 Speaker 1: were pretty good. Did he help you become a better 231 00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 1: wide receiver play? Yeah, and that's a that's a great question. Yeah, No, 232 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,280 Speaker 1: I think it really did. I think it really helped 233 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: with like like tracking the ball, high pointing it right, 234 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: you're leaping ability right, definitely, definitely that. Yeah, yeah, well, 235 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: al I thanks so much for the time, man. We 236 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: really appreciate your stopping by.
