Yeah, he can still 77 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 1: play men. He still comes off the edge and does 78 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: what he needs to do to you know, cause having 79 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: in the backfield, So you think that's about him with something, No, 80 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: that's not. That's not that's not my job on job 81 00:03:54,560 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: to play middle linebacker. It's easy. We got an opportunity 82 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: to be a really great defense. Um.
