1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,200 Speaker 1: Whether the change for you in this Tevens were keep 2 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: hearing how like different it is, but for you the 3 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: things change a lot. I think for me, I'm just 4 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,560 Speaker 1: trying to learn to understand uh, multiple positions as they're 5 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: not just my own, but to know where my help 6 00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:16,079 Speaker 1: is defensively, whether it's or his own, where somebody may 7 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: be driving or man, if you have rists and coverage, 8 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: if we don't just understand what the weaknesses and trying 9 00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:23,119 Speaker 1: to make sure that I'm on top of that and 10 00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: then working from there. What sort of your mindset now 11 00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 1: that you're sort of the definitive number one cornerback in 12 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: this defense, the guy who perhaps will be asked to 13 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,839 Speaker 1: cover the top receiver just about lead by example, and 14 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 1: like you said, understanding that's the position of the man 15 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 1: and taking for responsibility and accepting the role um um 16 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 1: that's given to me um So I think you know 17 00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 1: that's my my mindset. Obviously, if you're given a role, 18 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,159 Speaker 1: you gotta believe that you can do it and do 19 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: it at the highest ability. In that aspect, just taking 20 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: the day at a time at practice, in the classroom 21 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: or in the meeting room, whatever may be, just trying 22 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 1: to get those rests mentally and physically, so I can 23 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: go out there and be prepared and then do it 24 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 1: at high level. Got talked to you a while ago 25 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: and you said the possibility if James Bradberry would be 26 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: released would be devastating. Is it? It hurts? You know, 27 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: that's a guy that when I came in, Um, we 28 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,839 Speaker 1: bounced ideas of each other's different techniques, how he plays. 29 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, UM, I can 30 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: say a game the brother in the process of knowing him, 31 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 1: So at the end of the day, it's like you know, 32 00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: your brother going off to college. I'm a younger brothers, 33 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: so you see him leave, go somewhere else. But at 34 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 1: the same time, you know, still being in touch with 35 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: him and happy for him at the end of the day. 36 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: You know, as soon as he signed up, was happy 37 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 1: for him, told him, you know, we're gonna have the 38 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: jersey spot whatever it may be. Um, since we played 39 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: him twice a year. What about landing in Philadelphia? Uh, 40 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 1: that sucks.

How is 70 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: he handling that? And he missed a lot of actions 71 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: last year that this isn't really the position where he 72 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: was drafted the plane right, No, it was what's crazy 73 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: is um? You know? I actually when we got a 74 00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: right and watched this film and I've seen it, you 75 00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: see for my damn because press he can play well. 76 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: When I found it he went with Alabama prior and 77 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 1: I said, oh, that's why you're pretty good, because he 78 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: was like, you're really an Alabama DV. So you know, 79 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: a Robins is very talented, and you know it's all 80 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 1: about working and I think you know your aspect coming 81 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: from wherever you come from, where you get drafted to 82 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: eventually play one day and be ready. And I felt 83 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: like a rob stayed the course even though when he 84 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 1: got he was you know, banged up, and he came 85 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: in and played and played highly well. Um, and I 86 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 1: put on his resume now. So in situation happened like this, 87 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 1: you know it gets an opportunity to come play. So 88 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: I feel like he did did what he needed to do, 89 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: continue to work hard, continue to stay himself and stay 90 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: focused throughout the whole process. You look at it and 91 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: they say can you Can you be a shutdown number 92 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: one corner and the defense that asks you to play 93 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: a lot of man coverage. So what is your confidence 94 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: level that you can be that that guy? Um, it's 95 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: me believing in myself and the conference that I have 96 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: is put in the work. I mean the confidence come 97 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: from um mental and physically being prepared. So at the 98 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,720 Speaker 1: end of the day, no matter what the situation is, 99 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: no matter what the task is, you go out there 100 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: and you're confident in your prep and mentally being prepared 101 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: what you're doing. I mean, the scars is the limit 102 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: better than that's on you. So you could be physically prepared, 103 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: but if you're not mentally prepared for the task, it's 104 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: not gonna get done. The same thing vice versa. You 105 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 1: can believe it, but if you didn't put into work 106 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: physically and get all eruption, then that won't happen. How 107 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: do you think you can get better from I think 108 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: all aspects of my game, I can get better improved communicating, um, alignment, 109 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: signment and technique. No matter what I did good, I 110 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: can get better. And whatever I did, um not as well. 111 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: To try to focus more on that and improve more 112 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: on that, and I think on you know, it's you know, 113 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,719 Speaker 1: it's crazy talking to Steve Smith today and he was 114 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:47,120 Speaker 1: talking about whatever you do, try to make a player day. 115 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: And you know, the play that you think that you 116 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: did well, you look on film, it might not be 117 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: as good as you think. And the play that you 118 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: didn't think was good end up being a good play. 119 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 1: You know, the ones that you don't know you don't 120 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: take the aspect in and coming and taking everything, um, 121 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: you know personal and treating that first rep it's like 122 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,480 Speaker 1: it's the last rep and having that mentality. So I 123 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: think improving in the aspect as every play, um is 124 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: my last play and going out there and give them all. 125 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: Was that pick six and play you thought you did 126 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: well for sure? Um? And what's crazy is before we 127 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: actually talk, you know something similar about the end of 128 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 1: meeting room about quarterback being on the center. It is 129 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 1: that in the third and watching the moves and what 130 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: may happen quick game offers you know, plash and deeper 131 00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 1: development route. So you know, it was crazy before that play. 132 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: We actually was talking about the inn the film room, 133 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: and then we come out here actually seeing and I 134 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: think that takes like you're saying the test to how 135 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,239 Speaker 1: do you get better? And we always talk about taking 136 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: the classroom to the field or whatever it may be. 137 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: So I've seen it or listen to it. Didn't actually 138 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: see that route, but I listened to it, and then 139 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 1: you know, understand that's the first move, second move, third move, 140 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: trying to react and talking to Steve Smith about that. 141 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: So um, I think that's in the test to Steve 142 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: and coach wink and and coach wrong, you know, about 143 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: trying to take the next step in the next level 144 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: by um dissectly everything what makes what makes your out 145 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: zone concept? I thought zone concepts weren't missed in this system. 146 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 1: I thought it's old man that knows Jone. I mean, 147 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: I feel like everything it turns into man at the 148 00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,600 Speaker 1: end of the day. We ever come down to Medeve 149 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 1: and I'm playing, you know whatever, this is his zone 150 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 1: pretty much got him a man of match or let's 151 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 1: say we went third down, and we're not just gonna 152 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: play us. Say it's like third and thirty and three 153 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: thirty five wins on let'say called cover three. You're not 154 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 1: just gonna bell and protect your third. Let's say dude 155 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: runs U thirty five. He runs like an a yard out, 156 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, you're gonna match 157 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 1: it because it's starting short. You're not just gonna stand 158 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 1: your third because that's what your task tells you to do. 159 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,480 Speaker 1: Think it is about being a football player and understanding 160 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: of what's going on.
