1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,040
Speaker 1: What's your understanding of the head coach position right now

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: for for this organization? UM, I don't I don't really

3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: know how to answer that. I mean the same thing

4
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: who was yesterday? We just had our exit meeting, UM,

5
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 1: and it was business as usual. UM, just just team

6
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 1: uh with things that we need to work on, things

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,280
Speaker 1: that we did good this year. UH. And what he

8
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,880
Speaker 1: liked for us to do an all season UM, and

9
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: that's what that is? What it is? What was his

10
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:35,159
Speaker 1: what was his overall? What was the theme of his address?

11
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,200
Speaker 1: I guess to the squad, UM, just gotta be better

12
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 1: all around, every single one of us. We've gotta be better.

13
00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: We know that we have the talent within the locker room,

14
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: we have the right mindset, we have the right group

15
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,000
Speaker 1: of guys, UM, the right work, I think, but we

16
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: gotta get better. We gotta you know, we gotta have

17
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: the results. And that's a critical all season and we

18
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 1: gotta go out there and in all season make sure

19
00:00:57,760 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: we use the time wisely and get better. From I'm Jones,

20
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: Hey six, what what disappointed you, maybe personally and and

21
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 1: team wise about this season? The most? UM? I would

22
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 1: think probably you know last year obviously we didn't make

23
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,479
Speaker 1: the playoffs, but we were in a position the last

24
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: week to put ourselves in a position to make the

25
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 1: playoffs and coming back and you think that the team

26
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,240
Speaker 1: we have the same team, we added key players. UM,

27
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,440
Speaker 1: so the opportunities is going to be better and we

28
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: want to have your hope of for better season. But

29
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: it's just the things that you can't control. It's a

30
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: lot of adversity, UM, a lot of you know, guys

31
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: banged up by injuries. UM, having to have God to

32
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,880
Speaker 1: step up play new roles. So I would say that's

33
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 1: the biggest thing, because the biggest thing that disappointed because

34
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: we have a lot of talent um to be successful,

35
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: but we just gotta find a way, find a way

36
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: to do it, and it's gonna be adversity throughout the way.

37
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: But it's got to keep what and keep working. And

38
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: how sure are you that you're going to be a

39
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 1: better version of yourself next year? Um, I'm almost hundson

40
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,880
Speaker 1: short to be can play honest, Uh because on that

41
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: focus on things that I can control, and I can

42
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: control my work out there. I can control my effort

43
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 1: and my attitude this off season and this all this

44
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: all season is going to be all about getting myself

45
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,799
Speaker 1: in tiptop shape, get my body back to the phone

46
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,519
Speaker 1: where I need to be so I can be the

47
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 1: player that I know I am all shorts than he. Um.

48
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: I'm wondering how much have you learned over the course

49
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 1: of a couple of years here as far as um,

50
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 1: the way you came in, Um, what people said about you,

51
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 1: then maybe what people say about you now? You know

52
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: what you care about, what you don't care about. You know,

53
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: the rise and fall of a guy who has been

54
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: the face maybe of the franchise for a couple of years.

55
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: He here, Um, what have you learned about maybe becoming

56
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,919
Speaker 1: a star, not becoming a star, becoming a person people loved,

57
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: and becoming a person people maybe don't love so much. Um.

58
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,079
Speaker 1: I didn't learn nothing, really. UM. I always knew that

59
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 1: my mom always so much since I was a kid.

60
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: No matter you're doing good, you're doing bad, people are

61
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: gonna have something positive to say or something negative said.

62
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: I just got to block it out. It's kind of

63
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 1: hard to do that in Big Apple, especially in the

64
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,120
Speaker 1: day we live in social media. I'm acting on social media,

65
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 1: so you can go on your phone and not even

66
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 1: look for something and they'll pop up. But my mindset,

67
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 1: you know, I had this conversation you say, with my family.

68
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna allow people that have no impact on

69
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: the success that I have or have an impact in

70
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 1: my life. Uh, dictate my feelings, whether it's I don't

71
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: try to see something or I see something. It's like,

72
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,960
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I'm very blessed. I'm

73
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: playing the sports I love at the highest level. Um,

74
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: there's a lot of people that would kill to be

75
00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: in my position. So I'm gonna take advantage of that

76
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 1: opportunity that God's blessed me with and keep working. And

77
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 1: like I said kind of in a radio interview with Kim, Um,

78
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: for everyone that you know outside in the world that

79
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,920
Speaker 1: we're fans may not be fans right now. For you

80
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: guys that are going to write probably something positive or

81
00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,920
Speaker 1: mostly something negative is offseason about me. Just make sure

82
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: you guys stay on that side of the table when

83
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: things turn around. Three more Fruce back grind down leaving

84
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 1: the Jordan's Bruce take thieve gentleman drafted you showed a

85
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: lot of confidence in you. What's your reaction to his retirement? Yeah,

86
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,039
Speaker 1: that's sad. The scene retire. UM, I'm always forever gonna

87
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 1: be grateful and thankful for Mr Gentleman. He's gave me

88
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 1: an opportunity to to live on my dream, UM, and

89
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 1: to come and play for amazing organization. And you know, obviously,

90
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: you know I wish we were able to have a

91
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 1: lot more success, but that things that he taught me

92
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 1: and things I learned from him. UM, I'm gonna continue

93
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 1: to carry on my career and the little messages that

94
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 1: he's given me or the conversations that we have, UM,

95
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 1: I know I'm gonna take with me and it's gonna

96
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,719
Speaker 1: help help me catapult my career in the right direction

97
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: and finishing off the way how I wanted to be

98
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: and how he perceives it to be too and sick,

99
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: when what will it take for this team to turn

100
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 1: it around? In your mind? And you do you do?

101
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: You believe it could be done. I do believe it

102
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 1: can be done. I think you see every year, UM,

103
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 1: throughout the National Football League, a team that did not

104
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: do so well the year before, UM, and the next

105
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: year they're in playoff contention. UM. It's just you know,

106
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 1: this off season, you gotta make some the off season

107
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: players we gotta come. We've got work and our ownership

108
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,240
Speaker 1: and coaches, you know they're gonna do the right thing.

109
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: So to add key additional pieces that we needed for

110
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 1: a team, and we're gonna get healthier. We have guys

111
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 1: like Blake come back, and it was gonna keep working,

112
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 1: and I think those things that it's gonna be necessary

113
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 1: to happen for to make the turn of right. Don Levy,

114
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,960
Speaker 1: Hey sick, I'm I'm wondering what do you think the

115
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,159
Speaker 1: new GM means for you from a business standpoint? Obviously,

116
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: get him and what was your biggest supporter? Now there

117
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 1: will be somebody new when you want to contract extension,

118
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 1: when you go to it, there'll be somebody new. Um.

119
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 1: And obviously not every GM believes that running back is

120
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: you know, worth paying top dollar two. So I'm curious

121
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: what you think the GM change means for your future.

122
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 1: Uh no, clue, I can't control that. Um, that's not

123
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,600
Speaker 1: just about my pay grade. I don't make those decisions.

124
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: So you know where we bring in My mindset is

125
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 1: that I'm here, I'm a leader of this team, and

126
00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the manset and all season just

127
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 1: get better and try to prove all areas of my

128
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: game so I can be the player that I know

129
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 1: I am and help the team get back to the

130
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: right direction. Last one for Jordan's hey, sick one. We

131
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,480
Speaker 1: know we often struggled this year. I mean there's a

132
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 1: secret to anybody. I'm curious if they came to you

133
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: and said, hey, what is your like? How? What what

134
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 1: would you like? How can how can we fix this?

135
00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: Where where would you start there? Um? You know, uh,

136
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: I think just as a whole, we gotta be better

137
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 1: to be honest, every single one of us. We have

138
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 1: a lot of talent, but you know, it don't matter

139
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 1: how talented you are if you're not going there and

140
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: every results. So it don't matter who we bring in,

141
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: who we bring in. If we don't go out there

142
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 1: and make the players that need to be made h nothing,

143
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: nothing's gonna change to be honest. Um, So we gotta

144
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,120
Speaker 1: put it on us. We gotta take that responsibility. We

145
00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: gonna have that mindset that whoever we bring in here,

146
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 1: obviously you know they're gonna put us in our right positions.

147
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,840
Speaker 1: And when they put us in our positions as players,

148
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,720
Speaker 1: as myself, as KG, as Daniel. Um, you know, we

149
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: gotta make those plays when the plays come. So that's

150
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: the only thing that I see
