1
00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:07,120
Speaker 1: Cann event Hi Channel. In a season like this where

2
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:10,640
Speaker 1: you don't have any preseason feedback, how much do you

3
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:16,319
Speaker 1: have to trust on everything you've learned in terms in

4
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 1: terms of what the players, myself, the code, What were

5
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: you looking at everything in in terms of coaching your

6
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,159
Speaker 1: players things like that. I think you always have to

7
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,720
Speaker 1: rely on your base and your philosophy. You know. Really,

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:28,280
Speaker 1: our practice tape is what we have to go on

9
00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: based on how we compete on a daily basis and

10
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 1: the progress we see. The biggest thing we do is

11
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 1: monitor own players improvement. We know what the standard is.

12
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 1: We explain to our players every day. They know if

13
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 1: they've met it or not. We're very honest about the

14
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,640
Speaker 1: progress are making. You know, it's not about pointing out

15
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 1: that they did something wrong. It's it's helping them to

16
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: understand how to correct it and do it right. And

17
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 1: that's our goal on a daily basis. Leonard, Hey, Joe,

18
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: how you doing? What do you How do you feel

19
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:02,279
Speaker 1: about your corner back position as a whole, and what

20
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: do you like about Brandon Williams a guy you guys

21
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:08,120
Speaker 1: are expected to sign and what do you hope to

22
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 1: seeing Cavary Russell a guy that it sounds like you

23
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: guys are gonna work out well, Pat, I'm gonna leave

24
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 1: anybody who's not on our roster yet until something is finalized,

25
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 1: and I'll speak on them freely. Um in terms of

26
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: our cornerback position, they're young, and they're improving. You know,

27
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,160
Speaker 1: we've seen daily improvement. You know, it travels over from

28
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 1: the individual drills to the competitive releases that one on

29
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: one drills, to the group pass and seven on seven

30
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 1: and then in the team full eleven all eleven drills,

31
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,559
Speaker 1: and you see on a daily basis, they're improving. Listen,

32
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: they're young, they're learning the speed of the game, they're

33
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: learning how to handle multiples. There's gonna be things that

34
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,000
Speaker 1: every day are new to them. You know. It's not

35
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: that they make mistakes, it's that they don't have they

36
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 1: can't repeat mistakes. So that's our goals coaches. Get them

37
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: out there, make sure they learn from their own experiences

38
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: and from their other experiences of the teammates so they

39
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 1: don't have that mistake as well. But I like the

40
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: way they're working. They're definitely competing. Jerome bled and might

41
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: try do a phenomenal job with that group as a whole,

42
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,000
Speaker 1: you know, developing with a lot of you know, leadership

43
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 1: within that group, you know, coming from certain guys who

44
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 1: have been here and in the league for a few years,

45
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: and they're definitely doing if they can't help the young guys.

46
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:13,839
Speaker 1: Thanks Lombardo and Joe. How's it going, Matt Good? Good? Hey? Um?

47
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 1: When you're in these really ultra competitive situations like the

48
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 1: scrimmage on Fried sounds like today's practice got pretty spirited

49
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 1: towards the end. What can you learn about a young

50
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: quarterback in these situations? It might even be more valuable

51
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 1: and better than learning about them from preseason games. Well, well,

52
00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,239
Speaker 1: it's a preseason game or practice. It's competitive situations that

53
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: you really find out about your team. You know, these

54
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: are professional athletes. Everybody looks good run around and their underwear,

55
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: you know, but it's when the pads going, they get popping,

56
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: when it gets heated out there, when the situations get tight,

57
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 1: that's we really find out about guys, and you find

58
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,919
Speaker 1: out about you know more so, when something goes wrong,

59
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: how they respond, you know, So putting them in heated competition,

60
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,639
Speaker 1: mistakes are going to get made, you want to see

61
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 1: how they respond to that mistake. And it's not just

62
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: the coaches want to see it. All the players on

63
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: the team want to see it as well because they

64
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: look at that guy and huddle every pling. I know

65
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: that he's wearing the thing. But for a kid like Daniel,

66
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,400
Speaker 1: who this is your first time working for, and when

67
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 1: you have the quote unquote live bullets flying with a

68
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 1: pass rushing and pads and defensive backs playing press coverage

69
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,919
Speaker 1: and all that, what have you seen maybe from him

70
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: in those settings where it is live and you got

71
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: a lot of you know, physical play on the outside

72
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: of wide receiver. What have you learned about Daniel in

73
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: those settings that maybe you didn't see you're all going

74
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: in camp, Well, I think you knew the guy had

75
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: a lot of toughness from just watching the tape last year.

76
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 1: And this guy took some shots and he got up

77
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,200
Speaker 1: and he made mistakes. You saw him improved. He comes

78
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: to work every day, so you know he's committed to

79
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: the team. You know what you see from him and heated.

80
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: You know. Situation like that to me is when I

81
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: stand behind the huddle, is I like to see his poise.

82
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: I like to see how they handle it when those

83
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: bodies are collapsed at times in the pocket. I like

84
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: to see how he reacts to him. Maybe your receivers

85
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: and get open right away, or someone slips and falls,

86
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: how he handles moving on the next part of the progression.

87
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: To me, it's a lot about hearing them in the

88
00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: huddle and how they communicate with their teammates when things

89
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 1: get going faster. Are they panicking or does their voice

90
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: have a commons to it that settles you know, ten

91
00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: guys around dugan a Joe just curious how much you

92
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: know moving inside today impacted practice and what you think

93
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:17,840
Speaker 1: about the way the guys came out there to do

94
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,919
Speaker 1: the last couple of periods. Look at sudden change. You know,

95
00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:22,480
Speaker 1: we had lightning. You know, it's the only thing that's

96
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: gonna ever put us inside is lightning. So we had

97
00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: to move in. We go right to it. The guys

98
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,279
Speaker 1: understand there's ever weather situation, we have to go inside.

99
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: We just continue with practice and we move along. Sometimes

100
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: it alters a little bit. We have to go from

101
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 1: two spot drills to one spot drills, and we try

102
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 1: to find a way to you know, maybe lengthen the period, slightly,

103
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,680
Speaker 1: pick up the tempo so we can get everybody their

104
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: reps um. That's really the biggest hindrance right there. But

105
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: the second cleared out, we got outside fast we could.

106
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,360
Speaker 1: And this is sort of a random question. I feel

107
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 1: like I've noticed some of the defensive backs they have

108
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,120
Speaker 1: like tennis balls or something like tape to their hands.

109
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:55,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I assume that might be to not grab,

110
00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: but I don't want to assume. So is that what's

111
00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: the what's the reason behind that? Yeah, to be honest,

112
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 1: we we're teaching them not to. You know, we're not

113
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: gonna accept penantly, so we'll find a little trick we

114
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 1: can to go ahead and teach them. Thanks are Hey, Joe,

115
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,720
Speaker 1: they are. I just wanted to ask you about I mean,

116
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:19,279
Speaker 1: obviously things got a little heated there with Lorenzo and Evan. Uh,

117
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: maybe not so much how you wanted to see how

118
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,440
Speaker 1: they reacted, but how everybody else, how the entire team

119
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,600
Speaker 1: that reacted. That's really the first time that we've seen

120
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: the situation like that in camp so far. How did

121
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 1: you see things play out? And you know, I don't

122
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: know if pleased is the right word, but the fact

123
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: that not no one else really got involved, it seemed

124
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: to calm down pretty quickly. No I think our players

125
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: understand the emiss and importance of how we have to

126
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: practice and how it carries over any games. We've talked

127
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: at lengthen and team meetings about you know, why we're

128
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: not fighting on the field. There's a number of reasons,

129
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: but you know, probably the most obvious important is it's

130
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: a penalty in the game. You throw a punch in

131
00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,640
Speaker 1: the game, you're thrown out of the game. It's gonna

132
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 1: be a fine, it's gonna appealing for the team, and

133
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,320
Speaker 1: you don't get to play anymore. You know, those guy's

134
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:03,839
Speaker 1: got into a little bit just a heat and grabbing

135
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 1: scuffle today. You know, the teammates guy over there to

136
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 1: break it up. Obviously they're frustrated within competition, but you

137
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 1: know what they handled the right way. They're hugging and

138
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,359
Speaker 1: kissing after practice. They put it behind him and you know,

139
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 1: White brothers, they'll move on. It's Marl be smiling, laughing

140
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: at each other. Jordan's hey Joe, what's going on? Hey Jordan, Uh,

141
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: I'm curious what have you seen from Nick Gates. Obviously

142
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 1: that you guys, you know have the center competition. You've

143
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: talked about this before and now Spencer Polly is, you know,

144
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: banged up yesterday. Now he's sitting on the side. So

145
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 1: what have you seen from Nick so far? You know, again,

146
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 1: with a lot of our guys level of improvement. But

147
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,280
Speaker 1: you know, Nick's a guy that we got here. We

148
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 1: knew he had a lot of flexibility position wise, he

149
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: had to learn the center position. I think he's definitely

150
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 1: got who's you know, just locked in to doing everything

151
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 1: he could to give himself a chance. He's improved, you know,

152
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,280
Speaker 1: in the short amount of time being able to be together.

153
00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: He shows a good command out there in terms of

154
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 1: understand the offense, communicating the calls um and he's got

155
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: a toughness about him like inside, you know, and Spencer

156
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 1: brings the same quality, especially a tough dude. He's a

157
00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: smart guy. You know, you can run the show out there.

158
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: He understands what we're trying to do. He understands what

159
00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: the defense is trying to do. He's a great communicator

160
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: on the line of scrimmage in the huddle. Both those

161
00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: guys in a tremendous job compete. Where would you say

162
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: that competition is right now? Scratch even okay, Rock and

163
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: then this will be the last one. Joe. I know

164
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: some quarterbacks that uh like to get that first hit

165
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 1: out of the way in the preseason game. Is there

166
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,920
Speaker 1: any thought at all to taking the red jersey up

167
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: with Daniel at some point before September four? Steam, you know,

168
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: we've talked about it. I mean with quarterbacks, you want

169
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 1: to go ahead and be calculated and how you start

170
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 1: banging around. I don't think we're gonna throw him in

171
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: any you know, you know, royal rumbles or anything like that.

172
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: But you know, at some point will pop his pads

173
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: a little bit in the controlled environment. You know, maybe

174
00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 1: that's with you know, a young guy who understands just

175
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,360
Speaker 1: kind of you know, hit him a little bit. But

176
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: I'm not in a hurry to go ahead and just

177
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: beat the hell out of him Tom. But you know,

178
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 1: at some point we'll prepare his body for you may

179
00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: take in the first team. And and the other question

180
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: was it it looked like um Peppers had to leave

181
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: again today. It seemed like the same issue cramping is.

182
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 1: There's there's something that could be done there, you know what,

183
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: I know we were rotating a lot of guys. He

184
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 1: was playing throughout practice. I have to check. I mean,

185
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 1: he's a guy that sweats a good bit um. We

186
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,120
Speaker 1: obviously put a lot on our guys today, so I'll

187
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: check and see how where he was on the On

188
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 1: the back end, he was a good spirits After practice

189
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,559
Speaker 1: we're talking, so I'll check on all. Your back to

190
00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: the locker room. I have an answer for you right

191
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: there time. Okay,
