1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: How y'are doing? It felt great? It feel great to 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:08,960 Speaker 1: play football. Honestly, I'm just trying to embrace it all 3 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: so the game down continue to get better every day. 4 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: Um not really, because I don't have time to really 5 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: think about what I have to prove to people who 6 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 1: don't I don't want to say they don't matter, but 7 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 1: I have to keep proving that to my coaches that 8 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,159 Speaker 1: I deserve to be here. So I'm not on the 9 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 1: team yet, trying to make sure I can stay here 10 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: and continue to be here. So that's what I'm trying 11 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,200 Speaker 1: to prove a point to, not really to people who 12 00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:39,839 Speaker 1: didn't give me the call. You know, I want to 13 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,879 Speaker 1: and listening honestly because I want to be great. I 14 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,520 Speaker 1: want to be in a position where they can depend 15 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,480 Speaker 1: on me, trusting me and tough downs. At the same time, 16 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,480 Speaker 1: we got a lot of great players on our team, 17 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:50,879 Speaker 1: and all I have to do is listen, you know 18 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: if if I'm doing what they tell them to do, 19 00:00:52,840 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: and I'll just stick around. Definitely, definitely, because I was 20 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 1: getting a lot of texts about all I heard you 21 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,520 Speaker 1: were doing great in practice and all, but it doesn't 22 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: mean anything because we didn't have a game yet so 23 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: just the fact that I can go out there and 24 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: show that I deserve to be here for now, you know. 25 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm just trying to keep pushing forward contacts. Yeah, um, 26 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 1: even before this, we could practice the Lions practicing against 27 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: ourselves for two weeks. I mean that's a tough group 28 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 1: of guys. You see what they did today to show 29 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: they put on the day and just going against them 30 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 1: every day, I feel like I got better and I 31 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:45,720 Speaker 1: kept trying to take one step forward every day, and 32 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: I just I feel like it prepared me for this 33 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: week and today are two weeks into your first half 34 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,800 Speaker 1: of CAM and grab a guy, are you running starters? 35 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: And then out here and great game. I wouldn't say surprised. 36 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,560 Speaker 1: I'm I mean I'm thankful, you know, God put me 37 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: in a position I'll had to do with take advantage 38 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 1: of it. So yeah, surprise, it wouldn't be my out 39 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: go to word. But I'm just I'm not satisfied either. 40 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: At the same time, I just got to keep going 41 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: forward and hopefully more is to come. You definitely just 42 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: hit on it. The fact that he trusted me to 43 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: even throw that ball. I mean that's kind of something 44 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:32,799 Speaker 1: that I want from all the quarterbacks and hopefully I 45 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: can keep improving on that trust and just they'll give 46 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:42,360 Speaker 1: me a chance to make plays. Oh, I've seen a guy. 47 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,799 Speaker 1: They were kind of scrambling around trying to figure out 48 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: who had who, and I saw somebody come late and 49 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: he just he ran right at me, try to get 50 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: hands on me. I just knew I had to fight 51 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: through it and get to where my quarterback needed me 52 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: to be. Get my eyes to him early so he 53 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: didn't have to take too much pressure and he just 54 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 1: gave me a chance. Y M. Yeah, Oh definitely. I 55 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: switched over to a receiver pretty late in my career, 56 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: so I just feel like whatever receiver room, I'm man, 57 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 1: whatever meeting, I'm man. I try to just watch the 58 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: guys who've done it. Like I said, we got Jewels DT. 59 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: It's a lot of great guys who've done it the 60 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: right way for a long time, and I'll have to 61 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: do is just watch them and just they'll show me 62 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: the right way, honestly. And we got a great coach 63 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: with Joe, so we just as long as I'm paying attention, 64 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: I feel like I'll get to where I need to be. 65 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: Thank y'all.
