1 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:08,200 Speaker 1: Welcome to a special edition of the From the Podium podcast, 2 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:12,119 Speaker 1: where OTAs are underway here on the Cross Country Mortgage Campus. 3 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: I'm Jason Gibbs. On today's podcast, you'll hear from four 4 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: of our players as they begin to ramp up their 5 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: off season training. First, though, let's hear from head coach 6 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: Kevin Stefanski after Wednesday's OTA session. 7 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 2: We Uh, he did see Deshaun Frow yesterday. But from 8 00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 2: what you were able to see, how much see progressed 9 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: in terms of his old recovery and how much more 10 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,120 Speaker 2: are you seeing from from what you've seen previously. 11 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think he looked like himself. To me, I've 12 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 3: been able to watch him the last couple of weeks 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,919 Speaker 3: now that we've gotten in the phase two, so I've 14 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 3: seen him throw. He's making great progress and we will 15 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 3: continue to just follow the medical team on this. 16 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 4: But he looks like himself. 17 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: Can you give us a taste of what the plan 18 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: is like? How often he is growing? 19 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 3: Kind of the rotating days, we're rotating days for that 20 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 3: for now. Uh, that will change as we get into 21 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 3: mini camp as obviously when you get into training camp, 22 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 3: But for right now, he'll be thrown every other. 23 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 5: Day, Hey, Kelen, when you sign Nahim, what what kind 24 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:18,480 Speaker 5: of conversations that you have with Ken about how he 25 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 5: can healthcare, offense. 26 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 3: Cast You know, it's so helpful when you're signing a 27 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 3: guy that comes from a team where you have a 28 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 3: coach on on the roster can fill you in on 29 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:32,120 Speaker 3: what that person's about off the field, how they're on 30 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 3: the field, what they're like in the meeting room. So 31 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 3: Ken was able to give us a great picture of 32 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,479 Speaker 3: Naheim and who he is as a person and a player. 33 00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 6: So we're excited about his skill set. 34 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,960 Speaker 3: I think everybody's seen him over the years make a 35 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 3: ton of plays because I was curious and often thing. 36 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 7: We can kind of work down the gym if you 37 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 7: look at the defense, good in your wine. Now you 38 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 7: finish one in various uses and maybe. 39 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 8: The season doesn't end. 40 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 4: That's a performance we're hoping for. 41 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 7: But how do you as a coach quart at NOWS 42 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 7: when you're looking at. 43 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 3: Later, you know, bloping in the plan for including when. 44 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 6: You finished first. 45 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 4: This on many it's really interesting. 46 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: Year to year things change and every year stands on 47 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: its own merit. And I could let coach Schwartz speak 48 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 3: specifically to it, But I know Jim and I know 49 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 3: the conversations we've had. We want to be better on defense. 50 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 3: There are plays that we feel we're left out there. 51 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 3: I think if you talk to coach as he watches 52 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 3: the tape over the course of the season, he was 53 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 3: surprised we're able to stop anybody. You know, he feels 54 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 3: like we can be so much better. Some of that 55 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 3: comes from different things we can adjust. Some of that 56 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 3: comes from putting guys in positions to go make plays. 57 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 3: But we are in no way satisfied on defense. 58 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 6: He said that he got. 59 00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 9: Took work out in the rehabling in LA and then 60 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 9: year two. How beneficial is that when guys are able 61 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 9: to get together in the off season and get that too. 62 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 3: I think it can be really beneficial. Cam And as 63 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 3: you know, there's a dead period to it where we 64 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 3: can't talk to the players and we can't have. 65 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 4: Them in our building. 66 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 3: But if they want to go throw on their own, 67 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 3: that's great for us. And I think it just builds 68 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,799 Speaker 3: a rapport obviously on the field, but also builds a 69 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 3: rapport off the field. Does have gettings one hundred percent 70 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 3: after that injury, Yes, and Kim, we saw it. 71 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 10: With Shawn, you know, going through like the mental reps 72 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 10: right doing whatever everything budget throwing apart. Obviously you think 73 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 10: there's value to that, and so what I guess what 74 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 10: is the value for going through those guys right? I 75 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 10: think it's something we always talk about. It's mental reps. 76 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 3: So when you're not getting a rep, whether you're the quarterback, 77 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,959 Speaker 3: you're a running back, you're trying to get a mental 78 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 3: rep every single time. 79 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 4: So I think there's. 80 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 3: A progression to how all of us learn. And I 81 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 3: think as much as we can learn in the classroom 82 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 3: and then we can learn from being out there and 83 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 3: taking the rep. I really think you can add another 84 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 3: element of watching it while it's happening live, so our 85 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 3: guys really do lock in and try to get that 86 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 3: mental rep. Now you're gonna go into the meeting rooms 87 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 3: and watch it again, so you're gonna get another rep. 88 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 3: But I just think it's all of it adds up. 89 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 3: We don't want to be passive observers out here on 90 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 3: the on the football field if we're not in. 91 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 10: It, especially with the switch to whatever changes are with 92 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 10: Kings offensive, that. 93 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 3: Would be even more benefitsolutely, and I think it's important 94 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,119 Speaker 3: year to year it's certainly important this season to lock 95 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 3: in on all those adjustments, and some of those are 96 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 3: are nuanced, some of those are maybe terminology, but every 97 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 3: opportunity you have to cement it in your head is 98 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 3: really important. 99 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 6: Guys. You guys have to screen moment offense, the offense hostage, and. 100 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 2: I know the talks new contexts and change, But how 101 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 2: beneficial is this time when. 102 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,239 Speaker 11: For those things you have worked into. 103 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 3: The offense now that guys are to have I think 104 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 3: this time is so extremely important for all coaching staffs 105 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 3: when you do have some new coaches in so much 106 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: of it is getting on the same page. And I 107 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 3: don't care how many conversations you have in February, March 108 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 3: and April until you get on the grass and you 109 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 3: rep a play and then the coverage maybe changes. Then 110 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 3: there's another conversation that has to happen off of that. 111 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 3: So I think Ken and the offensive staff are doing 112 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 3: a great job of having these meetings where there's certain 113 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,839 Speaker 3: there are times that we got to talk through, we 114 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 3: got to come to a decision, we got to work 115 00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:59,799 Speaker 3: through it, and that's just the natural part of having 116 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 3: some new coaches telling like. 117 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 10: The wine doing some stuff Jaed on the side. You know, Jack, 118 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 10: do you have a better sense of way? Jed and 119 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 10: Jack might be able to crank. 120 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 3: They're all doing really well in their rehab. I don't 121 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: know when the exact moment's gonna be, when when those 122 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 3: guys are ready to to practice, but they're all doing great. 123 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: The first player up is Pro Bowl right guard Wyatt Teller, 124 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 1: who discusses what it's like having a new offensive line coach. 125 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,840 Speaker 2: How different weird has it been to have a different 126 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,799 Speaker 2: person at the front of the front of the meeting 127 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: room than the over line room. 128 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, no, it's uh, it's a transition. 129 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 2: You know. 130 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 11: I've had a lot of my friends send me Tennessee 131 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 11: Titans videos of the heavy bag and all the toys 132 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:42,840 Speaker 11: we used to play with. And before those guys, before 133 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:44,560 Speaker 11: it was viral, we were doing that. You guys all 134 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,840 Speaker 11: saw it. It was It wasn't fun, but it was 135 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 11: good work. And you know, I know that he's gonna 136 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 11: get those guys working down there in Tennessee. 137 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 6: Here we're working. I mean, I'm sweating. Uh, it's a 138 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 6: it's a good day. 139 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 11: But it was you know a lot of work. I mean, 140 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 11: techniques and stuff like that are slightly different. But at 141 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 11: the end of the day, I mean, there's so many, 142 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 11: for lack of better term, there's so many ways you 143 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 11: can skin a cat. It's the same stuff x's and 144 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 11: o's or x's and nose. Technique is gonna change slightly. 145 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 12: But what's it been like working with Andy and Roy then? 146 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 12: And just your first impressions of them, it seems like 147 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 12: Andy especially is pretty like hands on. 148 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, well I would say Bill was pretty hands on. 149 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 11: He'd get in your face if you if you messed up, 150 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 11: but no, very much. So it's just a very different energy, 151 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 11: you know, Bill. I don't think Bill was the one. 152 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 11: I mean he would he would raise his voice, but 153 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 11: he wasn't the one who's screaming. Usually he'd get coach 154 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 11: Peters to start screaming at us if we really messed up. 155 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 11: But no, you know, coach Andy's he's awesome. You know, 156 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 11: he's he's getting after us, making sure we're run in, 157 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 11: making sure that we're you know, going to the right 158 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 11: places and everything like that. I mean, that doesn't change 159 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 11: from coach to coach, But yeah, I know it's it's 160 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 11: a little bit of a transition. 161 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 6: It's it's different, but at the end of the day. 162 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 11: He learned under Bill, so a lot of his techniques, 163 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 11: a lot of his jargon is Bill stuff. 164 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 6: That's an offense. 165 00:06:58,279 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 9: When you guys are looking at some of these changes 166 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 9: that have implemented with ten doorsy, I know, in control 167 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 9: of that offensive coordinator position.

So I said this every single year 241 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 11: and I'll say it again. If we execute, we're gonna 242 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 11: be a really hard team to beat. Right if we don't, 243 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 11: you know, if we turn the ball over, which you know, 244 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 11: we're all. 245 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 6: A part of it. 246 00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 11: You know, sometimes I wish that, you know, I made 247 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 11: a joke earlier today that I was like, I just 248 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 11: wish I was a little bit faster.

I think, Uh, with him, he's very aggressive. 540 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 14: He's not gonna be scared to call whatever whatever he calls, 541 00:21:58,320 --> 00:21:59,959 Speaker 14: and he's gonna trust us and believe in us. So, uh, 542 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 14: they might come times or you're gonna be why do 543 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 14: you call that? And that's because he has a really 544 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 14: really big belief in his guys. And uh he's gonna 545 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 14: ride with his guys over his own instinct, I guess 546 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 14: because he trusts us like that. So uh, that's the 547 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 14: one thing I'll say. We're gonna be aggresive and he's 548 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 14: gonna help our basking and get better. 549 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 6: You were really successful as a kick returning guy. 550 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:20,120 Speaker 2: As you look at the new new kickoff rule, I'm 551 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,359 Speaker 2: kind of like saying that, what are what are kind 552 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 2: of your thoughts on the opportunity that are there, especially 553 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 2: for for for the return them. 554 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 6: I'm super excited for the opportunity. 555 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 4: One. 556 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 14: I think it's gonna maybe favor towards running backs or 557 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 14: somebody who's gonna hit the hole. It's not gonna be 558 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 14: like you can just run across the field how people 559 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:38,840 Speaker 14: used to do back into They are super fast guys, 560 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 14: So I think personally for me, it'll be great.
