It'd be very intentional about the big picture 34 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: each phase. They've also been intentional about each play, each drill, 35 00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 2: each lift, trying to do everything they can to be 36 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 2: as good as they can be. 37 00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 5: One of those lines, obviously Lamar even one of them, 38 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 5: when it's just the importance of you know, when you 39 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,160 Speaker 5: get being out here just early in the process and 40 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,720 Speaker 5: it's a long ways off but the start of the season, 41 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 5: but when you get in like, what does that. 42 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 6: Speak to us? Think contemporary play? 43 00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I just it's it's the same. It's 44 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: the same for all the players, you know. And obviously 45 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 2: Lamar is our quarterback, you know, and he's he's he's 46 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 2: our guy, you know, And I've said many times I 47 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 2: think he's the best. He's the best in football. So uh, 48 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,919 Speaker 2: he works hard at it. It means a lot to him. 49 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 2: He's been studying it, he's been training. You can tell 50 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 2: kind of shape he's in right now. You can see 51 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 2: by the way through the ball. You guys all saw 52 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 2: it today. He was on point with the offense. Uh, 53 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 2: he's ready. You know, he's ready to get going. And 54 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 2: uh had a heck of a day to day and 55 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 2: you know, just keep building on it for tomorrow. But 56 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 2: I think he you know, what you saw today with 57 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 2: him is probably indicative of everybody and they all they 58 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 2: all get to that point in their way. Uh, but 59 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 2: they're all there and they're all working, and that's what 60 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: we'd like to see keep than you could go to 61 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 2: him in the V well, I mean, you know, he's 62 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 2: a young player for sure, Mike, So there's not any 63 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 2: one thing I think any player needs to work on. 64 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: But for Trent, it's going to be just processing the game, 65 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 2: you know at the position. So uh, that's that's a 66 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 2: function of study for sure, but just also reps and 67 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,360 Speaker 2: confidence and learning the off learning the defense, understand what 68 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: the offense is trying to do. 69 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:03,240 Speaker 7: Uh. 70 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 2: Then when you get out there processing the game, reacting 71 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 2: and I guess putting that physical ability which is so prolific, 72 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 2: you know, putting it to good use. 73 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 8: John, you guys added Dean J. Hopkins to the offense 74 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 8: this year. What have you seen from him? And what 75 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,120 Speaker 8: what kind of like you've seen you bring in some 76 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 8: of these veteran guys like him and OBJ in the past, Like, 77 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 8: what kind what are you looking for. 78 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 3: Out of de help with this Gus? 79 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you know, DeAndre for for us is 80 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,079 Speaker 2: gonna be a First of all, I think he's a 81 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 2: heck of a football player. And you know he's obviously 82 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: you saw him today, right, He's a gifted guy, talented guy. Uh, 83 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 2: but he's gonna be a he's gonna be a big body, 84 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 2: contested catch receiver for us, you know, certainly. Uh and uh, 85 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: he's moving great. Plus he brings all that experience. He's 86 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 2: been in the big games before, He's made plays in 87 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: the big games. He knows how to make plays. It's 88 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: not gonna be any situation it's gonna be too big 89 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 2: for him. But uh, you know, I just thought he 90 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 2: and Lamar looked really good today out there together, and 91 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 2: it was nice to see. 92 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 9: The coach fields aded Cooper watch, where do you see him, 93 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 9: and how do you see that advantage in this quarterback room. 94 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 3: He's looked good. 95 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 2: I mean he's been out here, he's been learning the offense. 96 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 2: You know, he's picking it up from scratch for him. 97 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: It's all new, all the terminology and everything, and and 98 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:19,719 Speaker 2: he's been working really really hard at it. And I 99 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 2: think he's pretty much, you know, on his way to 100 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 2: getting it down, uh, processing all the pre snap stuff well, 101 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 2: which is hard in the new offense. And then he 102 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: just gets the ball out really quick. I mean the 103 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 2: passing game, that ball he makes decisions, boom the balls out. 104 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 2: You know, he's a quick decision maker. That's what he's 105 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,520 Speaker 2: always been. And we see it out here. 106 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 6: To see him now a guy you know every time 107 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 6: out there with the guys. 108 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:40,480 Speaker 10: Who I've seen him with it. 109 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 11: He came to see him out there with little better 110 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 11: for the freshment. 111 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 3: I think he's doing a good job, you know. 112 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 2: For yeah, I don't think he's really flashed yet because 113 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 2: he's just trying to be in the right spot right 114 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: now and make the right call. The safeties have a 115 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 2: lot of communication, but I haven't seen him make a 116 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 2: mistake yet. 117 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 3: With the communication. It looks really good as an athlete. 118 00:04:59,320 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 10: Uh. 119 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 3: And you know, with our Darius. 120 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 2: Situation, it's a lot on his plate right now, so 121 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 2: he's gonna have to step up. But that's why we 122 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: drafted him in the first round. 123 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 12: If you can get to another year, you knew for 124 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 12: moving the injury. 125 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 9: Looks like he's he's got his bursts out there. 126 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 7: What do you see from here an the year? 127 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that, you know, I saw the burst 128 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,239 Speaker 2: he ran the he ran the little double move rail route, 129 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 2: made a beautiful catch over his shoulder. 130 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 3: Uh. It looked like he. 131 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 2: Had to speed and then just ability to adjust and 132 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: track and just not heavy. 133 00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 5: You know. 134 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,840 Speaker 2: Last year he probably you could tell he was thinking 135 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 2: through the knee a little bit. It seemed like I 136 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 2: haven't seen any of that so far this spring. So 137 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,799 Speaker 2: it's good to see. 138 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 6: And I've just scheduled out. 139 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 7: Do you have a better idea whether. 140 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,239 Speaker 10: That going practice is the summer. 141 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 2: Yes, we're looking at the Colts and the commanders probably. 142 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 10: Uh. 143 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 2: For the joint practices, we just got to get the 144 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: details worked out. But those are the ones we're trying 145 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,799 Speaker 2: to set up right now with colts, one day at peace, 146 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: one day with the colts, one day with the Commanders 147 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 2: that it's. 148 00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,160 Speaker 9: Pretty early because you guys don't play them that reseason game. 149 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,720 Speaker 2: Who we played in the first preseason game? Yeah, we 150 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 2: played well, unless has that not been announced the preseason schedule. 151 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 2: We played the Colts, We played the Cowboys. You play 152 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 2: the Commanders, so it'd be Colts with a practice, Cowboys 153 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 2: no practice, Commanders with a practice. 154 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 5: John. 155 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 13: The last time we spoke to you, justin Tucker was 156 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 13: on this team and that move has been made. I 157 00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 13: know some time has passed, but just from your perspective 158 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 13: that roster move, were you involved in that decision and 159 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 13: what was that decision making process? 160 00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 4: Like? 161 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 2: It was a complex decision making process, and you know 162 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 2: you're I'm a part of it, Eric Sashi, Ozzie Steve 163 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 2: is a big part of those kind of decisions. I mean, 164 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 2: you're talking about, you know, arguably the best kicker in 165 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 2: the history of the game, you know, And like we said, 166 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,120 Speaker 2: it's multi layered, it's complicated, but you've got to in 167 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 2: the end, it all backs up. It all comes back 168 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 2: to what you have to do to get ready for 169 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 2: your team to play the first game. And I think 170 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 2: if you step back and you take a look at 171 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 2: all the issues and all around. For Cass, you can 172 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 2: understand that, you know, we've got to get our football 173 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 2: team ready and we've got to have a kicker ready 174 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 2: to go, and that that was the move that we 175 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 2: decided to make. So in that sense, it's a football decision, 176 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: you know, And now we have to spend all of 177 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 2: our focus in our time to get these kickers ready 178 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 2: and we've got a competition going on and get those 179 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 2: guys ready to go make kicks. So that's that's all 180 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: I'm thinking about. Like, from my perspective, it's like, we 181 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 2: got to have a kicker out there making kicks, you know, 182 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: and what's the best way to get that done? 183 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 6: Football kick today is Was that? Was that just the 184 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 6: planed rotation? 185 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 2: Or Yeah, Tyler kicked yesterday, so they're kicking every other day, 186 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 2: so you'll see Tyler kick tomorrow. 187 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:38,080 Speaker 6: When you said it was. 188 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 14: A football related decision, I guess there was a lot 189 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 14: of people not clear on it because the guy hasn't 190 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 14: kicked in a while. So how can you touch it 191 00:07:47,320 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 14: as a football decision when you know the last time 192 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 14: you kick was January? 193 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 2: I got, yeah, I mean that's a good question. I 194 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: just think it's like you just like I just said, 195 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 2: it's it's many layer decisions. You know, if it was 196 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 2: just a black and white, simple thing, then it would 197 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 2: be easy to understand. But I think anybody can sit 198 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 2: look at the whole thing and perspective and say, Okay, 199 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: we've got to have a kicker ready to go. And 200 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 2: there's a whole lot of moving parts of that deal, 201 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 2: you know, and it's just the reality of it, and 202 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 2: you're you're faced with that. So as an organization, we 203 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 2: made a statement about it. I thought it was really accurate. 204 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 2: I saw she did a good job with that and 205 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 2: thought it through, and that's where we're at. 206 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:22,640 Speaker 14: Any surprise, the NFL hasn't announced anything. 207 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 3: I don't even I don't even think about that, Like 208 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 3: I don't even know. 209 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 2: I just trying to We're just trying to get the 210 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 2: guys ready for practice and have a good practice. John 211 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 2: Jenkins still to be a raven or some fault and 212 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 2: there no, we got to have a roster spot. So 213 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 2: we're just waiting for the roster spot for Michael Pierce 214 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 2: uh to uh post June first, post you and one. 215 00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 3: Then we'll get John in here next week. 216 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,360 Speaker 15: John A Disa, Isaac and TJ.

That's what they want, 225 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 2: and they should be in the mix for that. 226 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 4: With I say it likely.
