You and I had the 11 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: privilege of helping the United Way of Greater Nashville do 12 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,360 Speaker 1: something really cool. I'll let you pick up the store. 13 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: Absolutely we were able to do a Q and A 14 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,640 Speaker 1: with none other than Kevin Byard. Such a cool opportunity 15 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: to get to talk to Kevin Byard, bring him to 16 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: the fans who can't find a better community guy than KB. 17 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: And this was a reward to people who have helped 18 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: out the United Way of Greater Nashville, something special for them, 19 00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:21,840 Speaker 1: something inside for them, for a guy who has been 20 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: one of the best community guys that the Titans have 21 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: had in recent years in Kevin Byron. Oh absolutely. I mean, 22 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,959 Speaker 1: there's no better person to talk to, especial if you 23 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 1: want to talk about community involvement than Kevin Byrd. He's everywhere, 24 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: he does so many things. He and his wife Clark 25 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: have started their own foundation and are doing a lot 26 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: through that. His partnership with the United Way has been 27 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 1: wildly successful. So it was cool to have the opportunity 28 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: to chat with him a little bit, and the United 29 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: Way of Greater Nashville was kind enough to let us 30 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: share that chat with you. So here is the special 31 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 1: stakeholder event the United Way of Greater Nashville. Myself and 32 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 1: Amy Wells with Kevin Byrn. So great to be with you, 33 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: and Amy, who's finishing her eighth year with the Titans, 34 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: here with me. And we have known Kevin Byard for 35 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 1: over five years now. Amy, you remember when we met 36 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,800 Speaker 1: him at the Senior Bowl in twenty sixteen. Oh my gosh, 37 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: we met him in a rain storm at the Senior Bowl. 38 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: This wasn't a regular meeting. We were blowing all over 39 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 1: the place. It was the worst weather, and Kaby still 40 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: did an interview with me outside in a storm. And 41 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 1: then a couple months later he's a Titan. So what 42 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: a fun journey we've been able to watch. Absolutely, I 43 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,960 Speaker 1: know you remember all of that well and remember that experience. 44 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: But as I watch you in those photos and I 45 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 1: think about you leading the charge for the United Way 46 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,520 Speaker 1: this year, I just think about your upbringing and how 47 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 1: you know personally what these sorts of outreach programs and 48 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 1: this sort of assistance means. Which is why I'm sure 49 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 1: the United Way and doing this was not difficult, because 50 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,880 Speaker 1: these things are near and dear to your heart. Absolutely, 51 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 1: I mean, United Way has done a great job over 52 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: the years reaching out to the community, helping as many 53 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: ways as possible, and that's what I'm all about. Obviously, 54 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 1: I come from home of beginnings. I understand the importance 55 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: of being able to reach back. When you get to 56 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: a certain level or a certain platform that you had 57 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 1: in life, it's always good to reach back and try 58 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: to bring people along. You have no clue you know 59 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: what that could do to somebody's day, year, a month. Obviously, 60 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: twenty twenty was a tough year. So I thought that, 61 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: you know, it was my right, my duty as a person, 62 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 1: not just a player, just as a person. To be 63 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: able to reach back and help out as many way 64 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 1: as I possibly could. All Right, so we're going to 65 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: take questions from all of the people who are with 66 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 1: us today via the chat. Amy, any explanation that you 67 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: want to give about how we're going to do the questions, well, 68 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: I mean, there's not a whole lot of explanation to 69 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: give other than type all the questions you have into 70 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: the chat. I'll be watching it and I'll be sure 71 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: to ask them of KB. We already have some questions 72 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: rolling in, So I'm excited. Let's do it. I've got 73 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: a couple to open though. First of all, you've got 74 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: two children in your house. Two Yeah, how are you 75 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 1: and Clark surviving that? Right now? Steep wise, that may 76 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: be the most important question. Honestly, Um, we're really not 77 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: getting too much sleep at all. Honestly, I think everything Obviously, 78 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: one's the off season hit. You're thinking, Okay, it's time 79 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: to kick back, relax, you know, get some sleep, get 80 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 1: my body some rest. But I mean I haven't got 81 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,880 Speaker 1: a full, nice sleep the entire offseason yet. Obviously, my 82 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: son we're trying to sleep trading him now as we speak. 83 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: But I mean, I wouldn't you know. I wouldn't trade 84 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:46,839 Speaker 1: it for the world. I mean, I love my kids. 85 00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: I have a bunch of fun with them every day. Obviously, 86 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: we're being still cooped up in the house to a 87 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 1: certain extent, so spend as much time as I can 88 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: around him, because I wasn't able to do it a 89 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: lot throughout the season. So it's been fun. But sleep 90 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: iss I've been That's really not in my vocabulary right now. 91 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: All right, So it's been four weeks. I'm gonna ask 92 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 1: one more and then I'm gonna let a be take it. 93 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 1: It's been four weeks. You've had a chance to catch 94 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: your breath and reflect on the twenty twenty season. What 95 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 1: jumps out to you about the Titans year in twenty twenty. 96 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:19,279 Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing that jumps out to me 97 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: is that we won the FC South. I haven't been 98 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: able to win the FC Stufts. I've been here. I 99 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: know the Titans have been done in a really long time. Obviously, 100 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: once the season's first over with, the first thing, the 101 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: first thing that's in the forefront of your mind is 102 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 1: the last loss that you took. Obviously in the playoffs 103 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: against the Ravens, so very disappointed. We wasn't able to 104 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 1: finish the season the way we wanted to the goals 105 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: that we set, which is obviously get to this game 106 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,279 Speaker 1: that we're gonna have on Sunday and try to guard 107 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: there and win it. But we didn't. But when I 108 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,520 Speaker 1: sit back and reflect on the season, we had did 109 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: a lot of great things. You know, Derek Henry, I 110 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: was able to watch him, you know, break history and 111 00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: witness history, so it was a beautiful thing. But that, 112 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: you know, the way this season ended for me and 113 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: for the team gives us a lot of hope and 114 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: motivation going into next season to go out there and 115 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: try to work as hard as we can to get 116 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: to that same place again. But obviously continue to advance, 117 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: continue to advance, and try to go have a chance 118 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: to win the Super Bowl. All right, I'm gonna start 119 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: in on these questions in the chat again. If you 120 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 1: have a question for Kevin Byer, just type it in there, 121 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 1: we'll ask him. It's okay. So the first question, because 122 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: we're talking about the twenty twenty season, let's look ahead 123 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: to twenty twenty one a little bit. There's some new 124 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 1: defensive leaderships. Shame Bowen is officially the defensive coordinator. What 125 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: adjustments or changes do you think that we will see, 126 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: especially to the defense in the comings year. Yeah, I 127 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: mean I think first, you know, this ear in the offseason, 128 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,880 Speaker 1: you're probably talking about, you know, personnel. Obviously, we're gonna 129 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: have we got some creatives. Obviously, we're gonna have some 130 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: guys come in, We're gonna have some guys return. I'm 131 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: excited to see that, to see, you know, what we 132 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: do as a defense and start shaping out, you know, 133 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: our roster and things like that. I mean, but I 134 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: see a lot of change for us, just mentality wise. 135 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: Obviously we didn't have the success that we wanted to 136 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,599 Speaker 1: have this year defensively, and I think coming into you know, 137 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 1: this season, we had to have a chip on our 138 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: shoulder to understand that we have to be better, just 139 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 1: hold ourselves accountable to all the mistakes that we did, 140 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: you know, and just learn from them and just try 141 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: to go out there and put our best foot forward. 142 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: We obviously have a great offense, and I think we 143 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: need to be able to compliment those guys as we 144 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: want to be able to, you know, take this thing 145 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: to the next level. Now in the twenty twenty season, 146 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:21,320 Speaker 1: there were a lot of challenges for all teams in 147 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,679 Speaker 1: the NFL, but especially the Tennessee Titans, other than COVID, 148 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: because we know that was a worldwide challenge. What was 149 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: a big obstacle that you overcame overcame Um, I mean, 150 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: I would say, obviously other than COVID. One of the 151 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 1: challenges that I felt like I had this year, just 152 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: on a personal level, was just not really being able 153 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: to be around the guys as much as I wanted to. Obviously, 154 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: at the beginning of the year, we had some a 155 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: little small restricts as far as going to be a 156 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 1: certain amount of guys being out, but as the season 157 00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: went on, obviously we couldn't really be around each other anymore. 158 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: It was pretty much good to work, go home, go 159 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: to work, go home. And I think when you're talking 160 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: about NFL pool, when you talking about football, that's the 161 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: biggest thing. The camaraderie of being able to go out 162 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: and go I have dinner with the guys. Uh. That's 163 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: something that it wasn'tn't necessarily bother me, but something I 164 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: definitely missed. And I'm hoping that, you know, obviously we 165 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: can get past this COVID that we can get back 166 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: to doing that, because that's one of the things that 167 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna remember when I'm done playing balls, like going 168 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: out to dinner with you know, a door Jason, Kenny 169 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: mccaro and those guys. Um. But that was something that 170 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 1: you know, we obviously overcame, but because we was able 171 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: to you know, stick together and obviously you know, fight 172 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: through all the adversity and like I said, one the 173 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: AFC South and got into a playoff game. So in 174 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty season, not a lot of fans in 175 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: the stands. What was your biggest motivation when there weren't 176 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: fans there to cheer you on? It was just personal. 177 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 1: Obviously we go into every single week with the key 178 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 1: of the week, with the message of the week, understanding 179 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 1: that you know, we're gonna have to bring our own juice. 180 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I was actually I think we were blessed 181 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: the Titans that we actually had fans at the stadiums 182 00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 1: because we would go to other stadiums like the Baltimore 183 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,959 Speaker 1: Ravens and they were you know, crickets in the stadium. Uh. 184 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: It was definitely a different experience for sure. I Mean, 185 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 1: we opened up the season on Monday night, uh in Denver, 186 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 1: like nighttime, and it was weird. I'm not even gonna 187 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: just looking the fans all a lot of bright lights 188 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 1: and just no fans in there. But it's something that 189 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: obviously every team faced throughout the year, and I think 190 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 1: we handled it pretty well. Kevin, let me ask you 191 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 1: a question about statistics and what they mean. You led 192 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: the team in tackles this year with one hundred eleven. 193 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: Good thing, bad thing. Doesn't matter that a safety led 194 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 1: the team in tackles. I mean I would. I mean 195 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 1: I think usually when a safety usually leads the team 196 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: and tackles, to kind of collect to say that we 197 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,839 Speaker 1: weren't that good, and statistically we really weren't. Honestly, I 198 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,080 Speaker 1: wouldn't like to lead the team and tackle. I would 199 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: like to lead the team and interceptions, but it didn't 200 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: happen this year. I usually do, but it didn't happen. 201 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 1: But obviously we still had a lot of team interceptions. 202 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: I think it was like top five in the league 203 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: when it came in this episode. And I've always talked 204 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 1: about it before, being a leader on the team, it 205 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 1: doesn't matter if I get one of interceptions, zero interceptions 206 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: as long as we're winning in producing and stuff like that, 207 00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: and I can care lesson Like I said, we wont 208 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: THENFC South. So I'm very happy to those things, but 209 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: I'm always hunging for more. I talked about it my 210 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 1: India press cameras. I want to be able to lead 211 00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: a team in tackles, interceptions, forest bumbles, all those great stats. 212 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you know, it's 213 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: all about team's success for me. All you mentioned a 214 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: bunch of things that you have been accolades, that you 215 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: have achieved in your career. With so many exceptional moments, 216 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 1: what are you the most proud of stuff? Most proud moments? Um, 217 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,719 Speaker 1: You know, I have had some good moments. I kind 218 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 1: of talked about my second year in the league. I 219 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: caught an interception against Blake Borders and they got us 220 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 1: into the ur You know, my first playoff birth it 221 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 1: was at home. It was a really fun moment. And 222 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: I also remember picking off Lamar Jackson two years ago 223 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: to playoffs. That was probably one of my most proudest moments. 224 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: I mean that game was electric. Obviously, Lamar Jackson was 225 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 1: the NDP that year, and to get an interception at 226 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: that point in time of the game. It kind of 227 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: sparked our rilly. We was able to kind of blow 228 00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: those guys out. I mean, but obviously you know they 229 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: got the better vers this year. But that's probably one 230 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: of my most this moment. So I actually have a 231 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: picture of you know that it's gonna go my man cave. 232 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 1: So it's pretty exciting. Like I said, to pick off 233 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: the MVP that year, it was pretty cool. Now we're 234 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: talking about clinching playoff berths here, how hype was the 235 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:15,960 Speaker 1: locker room after the Week seventeen game against the Texans. 236 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 1: Y'all just had just clinch the AFC South and Derrick 237 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: Henry hit two thousand yards. It must have been wild. Listen, 238 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna like that game right there, obviously 239 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 1: sitting on the sidelines knowing that, you know, we only 240 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: had a few few seconds, I think, like less than 241 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 1: a minute. I actually trying to go get in field 242 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: goal range, and AJ caught that pass and we got 243 00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: in the field goal range. Like I'm literally I almost 244 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: caught an auster just sitting on the sideline like I'm 245 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: sitting there praying. I didn't even want to wash the 246 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 1: kick because, like I said, it was just a really 247 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: a nerve wrecking moment and then you hear the dok 248 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: and it went in. I mean that would just like 249 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:54,839 Speaker 1: you really can't duplicate those type of feelings and emotions, 250 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: you know, outside of football. Yeah, I wouldn't really wish 251 00:11:57,640 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: that everybody in the world can actually experience, you know, 252 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: how I feel to be out there. But like you said, 253 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: in the locker room, man, it was incredible. Like you said, 254 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: I witness history, watched there into two thousand. I was 255 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: so happy for him, so happy for the guys, and 256 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,120 Speaker 1: like I said, man, just to feel in the locker room, 257 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously must be finally ran into everybody jumping around, 258 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: you know, Darren Bates got his musicly blasting in the 259 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: locker rooms. Pretty cool experience. I want to ask you 260 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: where were you on the sidelines and what could you 261 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 1: see during the Sam Sloman field goal? When did you 262 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: know it good? So, like I said, I was sitting 263 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 1: on the bench right and so usually where the defensive back, 264 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 1: says Ris me Kenvin McCarroll DD coach, were actually just 265 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 1: like kind of huddled up in a little area, And 266 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: at first I'm like, when I obviously be got a 267 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 1: field goal range. You know, I'm putting my head down. 268 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: I'm literally praying. I'm like, please, guys, let Sam Sloman 269 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,079 Speaker 1: hit this field goal. And so the first time he 270 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: kicked it and called time out and he made the 271 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: kid so a lot of times, you know, when those 272 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: type of things had he made the kick him like, man, 273 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: does he have to gain make it again? And so 274 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 1: when he kicks the ball again, obviously you see that 275 00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: the bass kind of drifting towards the bow post and 276 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: it went duint and I thought he missed it. Honestly 277 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 1: I did. So my ods went directly down to the 278 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:07,200 Speaker 1: rest of the seat because I didn't really have an 279 00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: angle to be right behind the ball to know if 280 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 1: it went in or not. So I was kind of shot. 281 00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,000 Speaker 1: I was scared. And then I finally seen the rest 282 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:14,960 Speaker 1: put their hands up. Man, I didn't even have the energy. 283 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 1: I was so like stressed out that had the energy 284 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: to actually just run in the field and meet everybody 285 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: on the field. Man. I was just so happy that 286 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: we made the field goal. I was drained at that point. 287 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,760 Speaker 1: It it was crazy. That was a great Titans moment, 288 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: by the way, great moment right now for David Abbey 289 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 1: you're our first prize winner. Today, Amy Wells will be 290 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: giving away three prizes and David has won the first gratulations. 291 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: All right, Kevin Byrd, I've gotten about thirty questions similar 292 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: to this, So we're just gonna put it all out 293 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: on the table right now. Who are you cheering for 294 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl? Who am I chair for in 295 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,839 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl? So, like, I mean, obviously, since I've 296 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,439 Speaker 1: been in the league, I've always watched all the Super Bowls. 297 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: Never actually went to the Super Bowl game, though you 298 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 1: know we're allowed to buy the tickets. I can't necessarily 299 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,319 Speaker 1: sounding room for anybody. I have a couple of guys 300 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: that went to MTSU played for the Kanna City Chiefs 301 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: Award number thirty five in a linebacker, so I'm obviously 302 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: I'm rooting for those guys. Honestly, I just want to 303 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: see a really good game. I mean to think that 304 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 1: you know, Mahomes against Brady, you know, the Goat against 305 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: probably the future Goat. It's gonna be incredible game, incredible matchup. 306 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: I'm really just hoping the game. I wouldn't say I'm 307 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 1: hoping for a hot scoring game because I usually like 308 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 1: to watch good defenses. But I'm hoping to come down 309 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: at the end fourth quarter whoever quarterbacks has the last 310 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: you know, the ball, the last to you know, to 311 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: drive it to win the game. That's what I'm hoping for, honestly, 312 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:36,800 Speaker 1: because I like, I want to be in the edge 313 00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: of my seat watching a really good game. Now, the 314 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 1: NFL community is a pretty small community. You play with 315 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 1: a lot of different people who move on to other teams. Obviously, 316 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 1: has that impacted the way that you watch games, knowing 317 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,320 Speaker 1: that you know guys on both teams and having personal 318 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 1: relationships with people, Yeah, absolutely, I mean I watched. I mean, 319 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm a guy who watched a lot of films throughout 320 00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,000 Speaker 1: the week anyway, So I'm always watching film on my guys, 321 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: seeing what they're doing throughout the league. Everybody knows I'm 322 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:05,880 Speaker 1: really Me and Logan Ryan really good friends. Obviously left 323 00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 1: the Titans this year, so I watched all his games. 324 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,240 Speaker 1: We text and talked about different stuff throughout the year. 325 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 1: We made a couple of little friendly bets about who's 326 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: going to finish the year with these stats and stuff 327 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: like that. But yeah, I mean it's pretty cool, honestly, 328 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 1: Like you said, to be in the league. It's actually 329 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: kind of crazy to me. I actually just finished my 330 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: fifth year, but to actually going to games and now 331 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 1: I'm knowing a lot of guys around the league and 332 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: we're talking and you know, chit chat before the game. 333 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: I remember when I was a rookie and I used 334 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: to watch guys before pregame and talking to other guys 335 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: like what are you talking to him for? It? Like 336 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: you about to get ready to play these guys. But 337 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,600 Speaker 1: now I kind of understand that because you have so 338 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: many friends around the league is definitely different. Who's the 339 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: most difficult player you've gone up against in the NFL? 340 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: Most difficult? I mean I would have to say Patrick Mahomes, 341 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,760 Speaker 1: and not just because that's the easiest answer, but I 342 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: mean this guy. I mean, he's the best quarterback in 343 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 1: the league right now. I mean what he can do 344 00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: on the field as far as you know, he's pretty 345 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: much out there playing back yard football. I mean, the 346 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: guy can make any throw on the field. He's really 347 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 1: hard to gameplay. And obviously you know Andy reading the 348 00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: Kennsee the chief to have a great offense. I mean 349 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: I can really name everybody in their offense honestly, from 350 00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill to Travis Kelsey. All those are hard to defend. 351 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: But when you have a board a quarterback like Patrick 352 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 1: Mahomes with a run at offense the way he does, Uh, 353 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: you know a lot of times it seems like Darren beat. 354 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 1: You thought Kelsey hard in the past. What's the difficulty 355 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,960 Speaker 1: in defending him? And why is he just so tough? Yeah? 356 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: I mean, for one, I think he's just a really 357 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: savvy route runner. I think he's not only he's a 358 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:34,480 Speaker 1: good rout runner goo football player, he's really smart. So 359 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: I mean he knows I think he knows just as 360 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: many coverages and defense just like a quarterback. So he's 361 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 1: always able to find his way, you know, into open 362 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 1: holes and ready you're playing his own. He's a really 363 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: good route running against man. He knows how to tackle leverages, 364 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 1: different things like that. I mean, he's pretty much a 365 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 1: receiver in the tight ends body. I mean, but like 366 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,000 Speaker 1: I said, he's so good and savvy with his route 367 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: kraft Man. He can beat cornerbacks because I mean a 368 00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: lot of teams trying to put cornerbacks on trying to 369 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,080 Speaker 1: match up with his speed, and he still gets and 370 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 1: so I mean he's a really good player. Uh, probably 371 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: the best time in our league right now. Kaybe How 372 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:07,320 Speaker 1: do you spend your time in the off season? What 373 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 1: do you do to prepare for the upcoming season, but 374 00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,560 Speaker 1: also to relax a little bit. Yeah, I mean so 375 00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: obviously it's changed over the years. Obviously I'm a father 376 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 1: or two now, so I mean the beginners office seas, 377 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: I'm spending time with kids, not really doing too much. 378 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: Take and taking my daughter to the park. Uh, just 379 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: having those type of you know, interactions, having fun with her. 380 00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 1: But yeah, I usually take it togein in the off season, 381 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,959 Speaker 1: maybe the first month, first four or five weeks, just 382 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: kind of relaxed, wind down, Uh, catching most of TV shows, 383 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 1: stuff like that. Don't really do too much. Uh, have 384 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 1: been able to do it in type of vacations and 385 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: nothing like that. Yeah, hopefully I'll be able to do 386 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 1: some of that in the future, but usually, you know, 387 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,239 Speaker 1: February middle February March, you know, I start working my 388 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,159 Speaker 1: way back to working out. Everybody knows I trained my 389 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 1: guy Jason spray Down and Mergans Borrel, so I'll begin 390 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 1: with him soon in the future. Um. But yeah, I mean, honestly, 391 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 1: I don't I don't, I don't really go. I don't 392 00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: do too much in the off season. Like I said, 393 00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: I'm really dedicated to you know, my cram and stuff 394 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: like that. So I'm the itching around this time. Actually 395 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,840 Speaker 1: right now I'm itching to start training again. But you know, 396 00:18:05,960 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 1: me being going into my six year, I kind of 397 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 1: understand that, you know, you gotta take it easy, to 398 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 1: take a slow and work your way into it. What 399 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: is Kevin Bayer binging right now? Like? What TV shows 400 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: are you into? So? Actually, I'm really watching this show 401 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 1: called Yellowstone. I don't know if anybody watched it before, 402 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: but it's a really good show. Honestly, listen, I just 403 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 1: start watching the show last night and I'm probably on 404 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,159 Speaker 1: you know, season two, episode three, so I've watched a 405 00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 1: lot of episodes already. This is like a really good 406 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: bench watching show. I would recommend that to anybody that 407 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 1: really loves that really loves good television. Amy Wells, who 408 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: got you into Yellowstone? Mike Keith got me into Yellowstone? 409 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 1: It's his favorite show. John Good I've been missing out, 410 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 1: Bragel Grabel trying to put me on the show. I 411 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,760 Speaker 1: think this is probably around beginning season training. Candy was 412 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,920 Speaker 1: talking about Yellowstone, and you know, I took me forever 413 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,920 Speaker 1: to start watching it, But I'm glad I'm watching it 414 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 1: that I could just be bench through it. I I 415 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: ain't got no interruptions. Now, you mentioned that you do 416 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: some training in murfreys Boro, and obviously you went to MTSU. 417 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: You're from around here or have spent a lot of 418 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 1: time around here. What was it like being drafted to 419 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: the NFL team that was in the area you went 420 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: to college. I mean, it was a dream come true, honestly. 421 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: Obviously in my draft class, you know, we had guys 422 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: like ty J Sharp, who got drafted from alway from 423 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 1: you Mass had to come to Nashville, and you know, 424 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 1: they was asking me about, you know, places to go 425 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. So just being able to not 426 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: really have to adjust as far as where I'm at 427 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: trying to figure out where to go and where to 428 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 1: live and stuff like that. I was already had to 429 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: lay of the land. And obviously my fan base, my 430 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 1: fan base was always here. Uh So it's like I said, 431 00:19:38,840 --> 00:19:41,800 Speaker 1: it's been a blessing to come into the situation to 432 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 1: be able to, you know, play in front of like 433 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,240 Speaker 1: you said, where I went to college. Um, it's crazy 434 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 1: because I go around anywhere out here in Nashville. I'm 435 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: at a grocery store or whatever, and you know, I 436 00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 1: meet somebody went to MTSU and I'm MTSU Grand So, 437 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's kind of like I'm in a 438 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 1: special fraternity. Honestly. Now, you said, guys are asking you 439 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: where you eat? Do you have a favorite hot chicken 440 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: joint in Nashville? Favorite hot chicken? I like Princess. I 441 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: actually have a handy Bees not too far from my house. 442 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: Hot chicken is pretty good. I actually I'm really more 443 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: Wings guy, obviously being with a high school down Atlanta. 444 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: I like hot wings, the small little hot wings. But 445 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: I enjoy hot chicken therey now now. I try not 446 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: to eat too much of it, but I do enjoy 447 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: it every now again. Has anyone broken your MTSU interception record? 448 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm I'm hopeful. I wouldn't say I hope, 449 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: but I'm sure that that record will last for a 450 00:20:32,760 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: little long time. I know some guys that's getting close 451 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: to it. I know a guy down that's down there 452 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: right now, Blanket Ship. He's a really good safety. I 453 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: think he's come back for a senior, so hopefully he 454 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 1: gets a turn of interceptions, he has the opportunity to 455 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: break it. You know, records are meant to be broken, 456 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 1: you know. I'm just happy to kind of set that standard. 457 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:51,439 Speaker 1: We had a few good safeties since I've been there. Uh, 458 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: Javante Moffa, who's with the Browns right now. Just happy 459 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: to be, you know, example for those guys, and you know, 460 00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 1: hopefully somebody breaks this sooner or later. Let me ask 461 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: you about the process leading up to the draft right now? 462 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: What do you wish that you had known when you 463 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: were going through it, like February March April into the draft. 464 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: What do you wish you to known in twenty sixteen 465 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: that you could tell somebody now who's going into the 466 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one draft. That's a good question. Um, I 467 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: would say that, you know, no matter you know. Obviously 468 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: I didn't get invited to the combine and I was 469 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:34,439 Speaker 1: really upset about that at the time. But one thing 470 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: I didn't let it do. I didn't let it get 471 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: me discouraged. Uh. You know, I know a lot of 472 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 1: guys tend to do a lot of combine training leading 473 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 1: up to it. Um. I would tell guys that you 474 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:47,399 Speaker 1: know you're gonna run one to forty and you're never 475 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: gonna have to run a forty yard dash again. You know, 476 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: really focus on your craft, focus on being a football player, 477 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: focus on getting ready for training camp. Uh, that's probably 478 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,240 Speaker 1: I think that's the biggest thing because obviously, you know, 479 00:21:57,320 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 1: everybody wants to run, have good numbers, good forties, all 480 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: that good stuff for the protect. But forget about the 481 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 1: football aspect and make sure that you're coming back, you know, 482 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 1: in tip top shape because you know, once it's time, 483 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: you know, for your clease to hit hit the turf. 484 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: You know, it's all about trying to go out there 485 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 1: make an impression and trying to go out there and 486 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: help teams win ball game. So that's probably something that 487 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: I was stressed to all the guys that's coming to 488 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,880 Speaker 1: the process. And also, you know, it really doesn't matter 489 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 1: when you get drafted, you know, right if your first round, 490 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: second round, third round, no round, it's all about what 491 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: you do when you get there. You know, we had 492 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: some guys I've been here make a really good impression 493 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 1: being undrafted the rookies and get a lot of good 494 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 1: playing time and have successful career. So you know, I 495 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,120 Speaker 1: don't think you know, if you're drafting the first round, 496 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: if you're getting drafted in the eighth round, it's all 497 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:43,400 Speaker 1: about what you do when you get there. You were 498 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: hard on yourself after the season. You've always been a 499 00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: player who's been self critical. Why were you so hard 500 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 1: on yourself? I think that's just it's just in me. 501 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 1: I'm real hard. I feel like that nobody can be 502 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: harder on you than you can be on yourself. You know, 503 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: I don't really I don't really get caught up in 504 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 1: with you know, people may say on social media or 505 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 1: anything like that. I'm really like, I watched more film 506 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: than a lot of people, and I watched film myself. 507 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 1: I'm always highly critically. Even if I have a good game, 508 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 1: I still talk about things I could have did better. 509 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: So I'm always gonna be critical myself. And that's just 510 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 1: me being a leader on the team. I always gonna 511 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 1: try to hold myself accountable first, because I can't look 512 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: at anybody else and say, hey, you need to do 513 00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:26,360 Speaker 1: a job without me saying it to myself. So, um man, 514 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 1: that's just who I am. That's why I'll always continue 515 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: to be until I'm done playing. I'm always gonna be 516 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: hard on myself. I'll never let anybody else tell me 517 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: what I don't because I feel like before somebody tell 518 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 1: me what I need to do better, I've already thinking 519 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: to myself so and that's always going to continue to 520 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: allow me to have this chip coming into every single 521 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: year trying to be the best player I can be. 522 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: Who are some of the coaches who have maybe influenced 523 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 1: you in your career?

I really enjoyed 635 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 1: when he plays. You know how he leaves his team, 636 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 1: leaves his guys out there. Uh. You know, I think, 637 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 1: you know, once his all said and done, Uh, you know, 638 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: I think he'll be a Hall of Fame caliber player 639 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 1: just by you know, the impact that he's having his team. 640 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 1: You know, he's probably going golf to win. You know, 641 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: a couple more Super Bowls being there with the Chiefs. 642 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: Uh So, Now I really enjoyed watching him.

I 644 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 1: want you to take that step further because I mean, 645 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: here's the guy. He's five nine, one hundred and ninety pounds. 646 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 1: I've always wondered is he a corner? Is he a safety? 647 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: Is he I don't really know what he does specifically 648 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: in terms of that position that scheme thing. Right, he's 649 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: so good what makes him so special? You know? I 650 00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 1: think he's one of those positionless players. You know, you 651 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 1: have certain guys on teams, like, for example, like Jamal Adams, 652 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:04,480 Speaker 1: like a lot of guys like he is safety. Is 653 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: he a pass rusher? You know, He's one of those 654 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 1: guys that you just put him out there and he's 655 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: gonna make plays. And that's one thing that I already 656 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: respect at the time. Mat It's like you said, he's 657 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: a small guy. He's not big, but I mean he 658 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 1: has a really good heart as far as you know, 659 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: He's not let anybody pump them down. He's fearless out there. 660 00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 1: Like I said, I really enjoy how he plays. And 661 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: you could just tell if you ever hear him being 662 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 1: miked up in a game. I mean, just the level 663 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: of energy and passion that he plays with, it's pretty impressive. Kevin, 664 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 1: who was your role model growing up? My role model? 665 00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: I mean obviously my mom. The watching her work as 666 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,120 Speaker 1: hard as she could to give us everything that she 667 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: could was definitely a role model for me. I definitely 668 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: learned how to work hard because of her and from her. 669 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 1: It's funny because even like sitting around the house and 670 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: stuff like that when I was young, when I was younger, 671 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: I was doing a lot around the house chores when 672 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 1: I was really really young, and so now I'll be 673 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: sitting around the house and like cleaning bad to other 674 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: stuff like that. Just like I don't know, I'm just 675 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: I'm not one of those type of guys. I'm just 676 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: really I get in the dirty work, like I could 677 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: do it anything around the house that I need to do. 678 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: I'm really a hands on guy. But at the end 679 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: of the day, she said, she's a down to earth person. Obviously, 680 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 1: I love her to death. Probably gonna go down there 681 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: and about two weeks ago celebrate her fiftieth birthday, So 682 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 1: it's a big mallstone for her. We're gonna throw a 683 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: big part. It's gonna be pretty exciting. You're so involved 684 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,240 Speaker 1: in the community in Nashville, and we see you in 685 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: a lot of different ways. Who was kind of your 686 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: mentor or example to show you the importance of getting 687 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: involved in the community. Um, as far as being obviously 688 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 1: with the Titans, Jarell Casey was a guy who I 689 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 1: really looked up to, and westpe Williards as well. I mean, 690 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 1: both of those guys are true vets, especially Westley. I mean, 691 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: Wesley was a real good mentor for me. He kind 692 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:54,360 Speaker 1: of probably was the one or the better or if 693 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,880 Speaker 1: not the best team I've ever been around, just watching 694 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 1: howke carried himself. He's a really good fan man, such 695 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 1: a Darrell U Ben Jones as well. Ben Jones really 696 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: gets in the community as well. I mean a lot 697 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: of guys. I mean that's something that when I got 698 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 1: into this league, I wanted to emulate and you know, 699 00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:11,360 Speaker 1: kind of watch the older guys and how they carried 700 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,200 Speaker 1: themselves and things that they did, uh, and kind of 701 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: wanted to put that into myself and mold me as well. So, yeah, 702 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: those are two guys I definitely looked for sure. Kevin 703 00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: talk to me about some of the young Titans that 704 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,640 Speaker 1: you're excited to see more of in twenty twenty one. 705 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:30,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm excited to see Christian Fulton. I'm excited 706 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: to continue to watch them, you know, developed as a player. Uh. 707 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: You know, obviously most of the rookies from last year, 708 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 1: not just only on our team, but just around the 709 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,800 Speaker 1: league was kind of slowed down a little bit. You 710 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 1: obviously had a couple of stars that you know, kind 711 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 1: of robbed this year, but you know, not having the 712 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: OTA's um and all that stuff and kind of actually 713 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:48,960 Speaker 1: getting thrown into the fire going straight to train the camp, 714 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: that's kind of difficult for you know, to ask the 715 00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 1: most rookies. Uh. I mean we obviously did the virtual deal, 716 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 1: but not being at being able to be out there 717 00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,720 Speaker 1: in the field kind of slow slow down progress to 718 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: some of those guys. And obviously Chris, he had a 719 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: hamstring injury that kind of kept him by the most 720 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 1: of training camp. Came back was kind of you know, 721 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,120 Speaker 1: was kind of doing this thing a little bit. Then 722 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 1: I had the knee injury was out for a while. 723 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: So I'm really excited to see him with a full 724 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: offseason to be able to rehab and get all that 725 00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,479 Speaker 1: stuff situated to see how he comes back next year, 726 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 1: and I think he's gonna come back a strong. I 727 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 1: think he's gonna come back and have a great season. 728 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 1: He has a really good attitude, He's a smart player, 729 00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: really talented. So I'm excited to see how he does 730 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 1: this year. Kabe, You've had so many great moments at 731 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 1: Nissan Stadium throughout your career as a Titan. What is 732 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 1: your top Nissan Stadium moment? Top Nissan Stadium Momentum so 733 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 1: a lot. I talked about the interception I had my 734 00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,840 Speaker 1: second year. My third year, I remember we beat the 735 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles in overtime. Corey Davis caught to touchdown. That 736 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 1: was incredible. Twenty nineteen, we had a goal line stop 737 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:56,239 Speaker 1: against Los Angeles Chargers that was incredible. UM. A lot 738 00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 1: of great moments at Nissan honestly, UM, those will probably 739 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: be the top three because, like I said, I mean, 740 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,520 Speaker 1: I've had some some individual accolades, but sometimes when you're 741 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 1: sitting on the sideline, you get the matter of fact 742 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 1: watching Derek Henry just this past season against the Houston 743 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 1: Texans running almost ninety some yards again and then score 744 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: a touchdown and over the time. I mean, because sometimes 745 00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 1: when you're on the field, it's exciting, but being on 746 00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 1: the sideline and obviously get to watch everything playout. Do 747 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:24,080 Speaker 1: you just see the crowd just erupts and goes crazy 748 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: and fireworks goes off. It's pretty specialized. I've been a 749 00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 1: part of a lot of special moments in Nissian and 750 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,200 Speaker 1: that was just a few of him. Derek was in 751 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 1: your draft class, and yeah, he's obviously been on an 752 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: arrow up almost since he got here. Why do you 753 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: think he has improved the way that he has to 754 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 1: become the elite runner in the NFL? You know, obviously 755 00:34:46,560 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 1: Derek has always had crazy talent. I don't think he's 756 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,960 Speaker 1: ever had a lack for that. I mean, the guy 757 00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 1: was I mean you see his middle school pitchers. I mean, 758 00:34:54,239 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 1: it doesn't even look fair. It looks like it was 759 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: supposed to. It's suppos to look at his birth certificate 760 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,400 Speaker 1: or something like that. But I mean, obviously won the Heisman. 761 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 1: We got drafted together and then, yeah, I mean we 762 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: all know that when we first got drafted, DeMarco Murders 763 00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: our lead back. I mean DeMarco Murders a Pro Bowl guy, 764 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,640 Speaker 1: a really great running back and you know, he had 765 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: to stay patient and once he finally got his opportunity 766 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 1: to be the full lead back, and I think it 767 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,600 Speaker 1: kind of started. I think it was twenty and eighteen, 768 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: you know that last month in December where he just 769 00:35:21,320 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: went on a tear. I mean, I don't think we 770 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 1: went to the playoffs that year, but I mean he 771 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 1: went crazy, That's what I would say. He went crazy. 772 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: And December he started to being known for you know, 773 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 1: November December back. But I was really proud to see 774 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: this year that I mean, he took it from you know, 775 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,920 Speaker 1: September all the way through throughout the playoffs to be 776 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:39,759 Speaker 1: able to really be a when a runner throughout this 777 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:43,280 Speaker 1: league having fall success that he's having things gonna continue 778 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 1: to have success. And if he keeps running like this man, 779 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: he's gonna run a suffer into the Hall of Fame. 780 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: And I'm definitely excited to see that happening. Yeah. Peter 781 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,840 Speaker 1: King actually talked about that today that he thinks Derek 782 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 1: is on that track right now. He is. Yeah, Amy, 783 00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 1: want to ask you, do we ever a second winner? 784 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:09,879 Speaker 1: Winner is Stephanie Salmon, So congratulations, Yeah, that's that's absolutely fantastic. Hey, 785 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: let me as keep it another year, team mates, what's 786 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:15,760 Speaker 1: it like covering a J. Brown in practice? AJ? Brown's 787 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 1: a dog That's I mean, that's one. That's one thing 788 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: I'll just put it. He's a dog man. I mean, 789 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: like I said, it's certain special things that you get 790 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: from being the sideline watching stuff happening on the sidelines. 791 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,520 Speaker 1: When we was playing the Buffaltore Ravens this year and 792 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 1: he caught that planning broke Like I don't know how 793 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:34,960 Speaker 1: many tagle was he broke, but he broke a lot 794 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:37,279 Speaker 1: of tagles and drank everybody into the end zone. I mean, 795 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 1: he's just a special player. I just even remember. I 796 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:42,640 Speaker 1: think it was his rookie year. So you know, me 797 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 1: and the dvs Me, Logan, Kenny, all of us, we 798 00:36:45,040 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 1: use the out in the field fifteen minutes before practice 799 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 1: doing our little warm up bill. You know, AJ comes 800 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 1: out on the practice field, He's like, you know, I'm 801 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: around one day all up today. You know, he's come 802 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: out there talking trash these guys a rookie, you know 803 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:57,800 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So honestly, you know we're getting on 804 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,839 Speaker 1: his head, we're getting on them whatever. But so watch 805 00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 1: his improvement from you know, rookie year to now. I 806 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:07,320 Speaker 1: mean this guy, I mean, if you get all you 807 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:08,480 Speaker 1: gotta do is get the ball in his hands, and 808 00:37:08,480 --> 00:37:09,960 Speaker 1: I think he'll do the rest. I mean, going to 809 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,919 Speaker 1: get them in practice. It's pretty impressive. Obviously, he's dealt 810 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 1: with some injuries and stuff like that this year, so 811 00:37:14,719 --> 00:37:17,440 Speaker 1: he wasn't able to practice it every single week. But 812 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,640 Speaker 1: like you said, I mean, he's a dog. That's That's 813 00:37:19,640 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: the only way I can really explain it. Some some 814 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:23,719 Speaker 1: guys to have it, some guys don't. He definitely has it. 815 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 1: There's a lot of uncertainty about what this offseason is 816 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 1: gonna look like. The commissioner discussed that today. We don't 817 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: know what the organized team activities are gonna look like. 818 00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,800 Speaker 1: We don't know about mini camps. See, there's just a 819 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 1: lot we don't know how two part question one, how 820 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,399 Speaker 1: much will it help you to go into this offseason 821 00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:50,359 Speaker 1: handle the unknown because you had to do it last year? 822 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 1: And number two, how much do you hope there's at 823 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 1: least some organized program, even if it's a scale down version. Yeah, 824 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 1: I mean for the first question, I mean, honestly, I'm 825 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:07,480 Speaker 1: anticipating our offseason to look similar, if not exactly, you know, 826 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 1: how it was last year. Honestly, I mean, obviously it's 827 00:38:11,239 --> 00:38:13,319 Speaker 1: a lot of unknown still, which you know, we all 828 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:14,880 Speaker 1: don't really like, but I mean, it is what it is. 829 00:38:15,680 --> 00:38:17,760 Speaker 1: But I would definitely anticipate us to the going virtual 830 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:20,200 Speaker 1: first and then maybe you know, as the year goes 831 00:38:20,239 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 1: on and may be able to come back together as 832 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:25,680 Speaker 1: a team to get organized. But I think with last year, 833 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: something that I learned from the last year, especially going 834 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 1: to this year, that I'm gonna try to do my 835 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 1: best as a leader to try to get the guys together. Obviously, 836 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:36,440 Speaker 1: hopefully COVID is its slow downs as much, probably get 837 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 1: these vaccines out and stuff like that, but I want 838 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 1: to be able to try to get the guys together. Obviously, 839 00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 1: who knows what the rules gonna be. I don't know 840 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 1: they're gonna set any rules or anything, so I don't 841 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 1: want to break any rules. But you know, if it's possible, 842 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,839 Speaker 1: I want to get the dbs together, the linebackers or whatever, 843 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 1: you know, brace some guys in town during a certain 844 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,960 Speaker 1: couple of days and have our own little OTAs you 845 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:56,480 Speaker 1: know it. Rather if it's you know, during OTA's I 846 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,160 Speaker 1: mean during the virtual period or whatever, I want to 847 00:38:59,200 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: be able to get the guys together, man, because I mean, 848 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 1: obviously I know the defense, be able to you know, 849 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,480 Speaker 1: work over some different kicks and stuff like that, and 850 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:07,239 Speaker 1: just be able to get together as a group. I 851 00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: think that's very important. I think that's something that we 852 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,720 Speaker 1: missed a lot last year, being able to get together 853 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 1: with each other, you know, outside the building that I 854 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,120 Speaker 1: think in the game of football, that's very important, having 855 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 1: a brotherhood outside of you, like you said, outside of 856 00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 1: the building. Now, I know we're starting to wrap up 857 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 1: a little bit, so I want to get to his 858 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 1: man of these questions as we can. If you weren't 859 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 1: playing football, what job would you like to have? Oh? Oh, 860 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: if I wasn't playing football, Oh, that's a good question. Um, 861 00:39:37,840 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 1: But I was younger, I was always want to be 862 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:43,600 Speaker 1: a lawyer. I don't know. I'm not gonna stare say. 863 00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 1: I don't know why, because my mom always said I 864 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 1: was really argumentative and she felt like I always feel 865 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 1: I can win every single argument. My wife said the 866 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: same thing, So I probably would be a lawyer, and 867 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,399 Speaker 1: I probably win a lot of cases honestly, because I'm 868 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: always I'm to stay a good case versus anything so 869 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 1: even if I'm dead wrong, nice got that chip on 870 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 1: your shoulder. Okay, there's one more. I want to get 871 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,720 Speaker 1: in really fast because I think it's such a funny question. 872 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,800 Speaker 1: Who is the one teammate you would put money on 873 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 1: in a UFC fight? Oh, in a UFC fight, think 874 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: it over, don't rush for this. Oh. I mean I 875 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:27,439 Speaker 1: know I would say a UFC fight. Hm, who would 876 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 1: you say, Mike? Let me mean, I'm gonna here, what 877 00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:32,800 Speaker 1: you gonna say first? Who would you? Darren Henry? That's easy, 878 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 1: It's like you have seen. It is one of those 879 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 1: sports where you know a lot of time, size doesn't matter. 880 00:40:40,800 --> 00:40:45,240 Speaker 1: Many that are going kids saying guys, no martial arts. 881 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:49,959 Speaker 1: Um would be the other one. That's my pick. Darren Bates. 882 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 1: Who Darren Bates? Yeah, Darren basically pretty good. I was 883 00:40:53,800 --> 00:41:00,439 Speaker 1: gonna say, um, probably the Derek Maybe aj Um Darren 884 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:04,800 Speaker 1: Base is a good choice. Shoe. I think Roger Sapho 885 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 1: might win in any type of fight. Honestly, I'm probably 886 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:09,879 Speaker 1: gonna pick Roger. I mean, if you guys haven't seen 887 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 1: m man all in a wrestling man he might beat Derek. Honestly, 888 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: that guy's huge. The thing about Rogers. That's crazy, is 889 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:22,919 Speaker 1: what an athlete he is. For that exactly. The only 890 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,240 Speaker 1: guy that I've ever seen with that sort of size 891 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 1: Bruce Matthews, the Hall of Famer, right, that kind of 892 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 1: athlete too, but Rogers bigger, and I think Rogers a 893 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,479 Speaker 1: better athlete. I mean, you just don't You just don't 894 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,439 Speaker 1: find I mean, Jeff Simmons is another one who has 895 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 1: that for sure, that size and a different sort of athleticism. 896 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:49,040 Speaker 1: But people don't realize that about sath I mean, guys 897 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 1: are built different. Man, He's definitely built different. A mean, 898 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,800 Speaker 1: you got us a third winner. I have a third winner. 899 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:03,680 Speaker 1: It is Rod Headley. Oddly congratulations you are a final winner. 900 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,360 Speaker 1: All right, So I've got a final question as we 901 00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 1: get ready to wrap up. And my final question is this, 902 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:14,000 Speaker 1: a lot of NFL players spend their off season not 903 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,600 Speaker 1: only trying to get in shape and to improve, but 904 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 1: to improve in one certain area, like they'll say flexibility 905 00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: or you know, leg strength or whatever. Do you go 906 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 1: into an off season like that, and if so, what 907 00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 1: is that for Kevin Byard in this offseason? Yeah, I 908 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:33,879 Speaker 1: mean the off season I think it's a really good 909 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: time to work on your weaknesses. Um, and every off 910 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:38,839 Speaker 1: season I try to go into you know, each off 911 00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 1: season working on our weaknesses. But again I try to 912 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: work on you know everything, just being well rounded. I 913 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: mean you stayed some stuff, some flexibility. Uh. Actually started 914 00:42:48,080 --> 00:42:51,120 Speaker 1: next week, I'm start doing my pilates. Uh. Yoga. I 915 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:52,920 Speaker 1: haven't done a lot of yoga in the past couple 916 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:54,279 Speaker 1: of years. I did it a lot my first year 917 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,399 Speaker 1: or two in the league, haven't done the past years. 918 00:42:56,680 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 1: It's gonna start doing my yoga again. Um. Doing to 919 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,160 Speaker 1: rehab a art work, getting massagests. I think especially year 920 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 1: around this time of the year, you know, guys have 921 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 1: some lingering issues or lingering injuries, and I don't want 922 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 1: to bring it to the next year, so I want 923 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:11,400 Speaker 1: to make sure I'll nip all that stuff in the bud. Um. 924 00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:14,720 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think working on flexibility, I mean getting 925 00:43:14,719 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 1: I think getting in shape. I wouldn't say it's easy 926 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:19,960 Speaker 1: or nothing like that, but I mean, as I say 927 00:43:20,080 --> 00:43:21,880 Speaker 1: at the same position, I mean, I run all day anyway, 928 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 1: so I'm just gonna run. I think as long as 929 00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: you run, you're getting shape pretty fast. So that's something 930 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna run a lot. Uh. But as a football 931 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,160 Speaker 1: player with the team, work on my footwork, work on 932 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 1: my strength, um, working on my mental Honestly, last year 933 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:39,399 Speaker 1: I did this cool thing. I don't know if guys 934 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:41,839 Speaker 1: have heard of the Oculus headset and the virtual little 935 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:45,320 Speaker 1: headset deal that's out right now. It's called neural Trainer. 936 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 1: I had this company that has neural Trainer where then 937 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 1: you kind of work on uh like quick reaction. Um, 938 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:53,759 Speaker 1: it's all type of differ It's pretty cool. I don't 939 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 1: know if guys can check it out, but it's called 940 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:57,759 Speaker 1: neural Trainer, and I think it really helped me out 941 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 1: last year. Um, so I'm gonna gonna do some more 942 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:01,880 Speaker 1: that this year. So I just try to whip on 943 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: everything here.
