It's just me playing my style of football. 0:00:44.479 --> 0:00:46.400 It's kind of your reaction to one you learned back 0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:47.200 peop weren't kicking. 0:00:47.080 --> 0:00:50.360 Out the fifty year offs. It's a blessing in disguise, really, 0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:52.720 you know, you see guys go both sides of it 0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:54.760 and get paid either way. And at the end of 0:00:54.800 --> 0:00:56.760 the day, I'm just focused on being the best teammate 0:00:56.840 --> 0:00:59.840 that could be, being the best player that I could be. 0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:01.760 In just going out there and improving myself, going out 0:01:01.760 --> 0:01:03.080 there and playing a game that I love to play 0:01:03.280 --> 0:01:05.679 at a high level. I don't forget after that, you 0:01:05.680 --> 0:01:07.520 don't have no one has to be here right now. 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:09.600 But after that, especially in really it happens. 0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:12.720 What makes you lean in and work harder versus distancing 0:01:12.760 --> 0:01:13.679 yourself to be happening. 0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:17.039 Just trying to get better. Uh, obviously requined, it's it's 0:01:17.040 --> 0:01:19.280 here now again the uh off season with us, So 0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:21.360 just trying to build that chemistry and then trying to 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:23.560 learn Mike more, trying to learn the defense more. Tryna, 0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:25.120 you know, all all of us just get on the 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:27.920 same page. That's my main focus right now. Yeah. 0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:30.560 Yeah, was that hard to do mentally? Just after note 0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:32.240 and you're y I you know, you see the social 0:01:32.319 --> 0:01:34.760 media stuff, take away the the Ravens logos and whatnot. 0:01:34.840 --> 0:01:37.080 But so, I mean there's an emotional attachment to that, 0:01:37.160 --> 0:01:38.880 right and then it's about to be here in the 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:40.720 buy Ina That tak me just like, what's that journey? 0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:40.840 Like? 0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:43.759 I think that's anything in life you go through emotion sane. Uh, 0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:45.560 at the end of the day, Uh, it may take 0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:48.040 some all the some others longer take it over and 0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:50.320 I just uh, I just had many talks from many 0:01:50.320 --> 0:01:53.560 people and different outlooks on it, and uh, I just 0:01:53.600 --> 0:01:55.800 came the realization that everything is not a bad thing. 0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:58.840 And uh the front office talk to them a little bit, 0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:01.040 and just they keep me around, didn't let me know 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:02.600 where it really was and how they feel and stuff. 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:04.520 So at the end of the day, you know, this 0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:05.800 is the place that I wanna play at. This is 0:02:05.800 --> 0:02:08.120 where I wanna be. And uh, however the chills fall, 0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:09.640 I'm I'm happy. How I'm happy with it. 0:02:09.680 --> 0:02:10.679 You got to take you touched on it. 0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:13.079 Put an opportunity to go through a full pre season 0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:15.200 and a full season was real qun. I mean both 0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:16.919 you guys seem to bring the best out of each 0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:18.919 other last year. How much you're looking forward to having 0:02:18.960 --> 0:02:19.680 a full year with it? 0:02:20.000 --> 0:02:22.200 Yeah, uh I can I can't wait. Uh it's just 0:02:22.360 --> 0:02:25.480 tho us two guys is just uh I actually put 0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:27.560 us as the best linebacker do or no discussion about it. 0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:29.440 Uh if you turn on the tape and you will 0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:31.320 see it. So at the end of the day, we 0:02:31.360 --> 0:02:33.280 get a full off season to go with each other. Now, 0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:36.040 full train and count full whole season. So now we 0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:37.680 just we just gotta build a chemistry. 0:02:37.919 --> 0:02:39.520 I mean mostly don't mind about uh. 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:40.680 Uh, you know you on the scale. 0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:42.600 And either way, what's your idea of playing a way 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:43.240 for this year? 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:44.320 And what do you like right now? 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:45.120 It's so you go. 0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:47.600 Uh, I think this year I should stay around two thirty. 0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:47.800 Uh. 0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:49.840 Last last year I was in between two forty, two 0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:52.239 forty five and stuff. So uh I think this year 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:54.919 two thirty, I'll be in a lot lot better shape, uh, 0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:56.960 be able to finish games a lot better than I 0:02:57.000 --> 0:02:57.560 did last year. 0:02:57.919 --> 0:03:00.359 Is that just because you're playing not I don't like anymore? 0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:02.200 You can kind of play a little Uh. I think 0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:03.760 it's just whatever you're comfortable with. 0:03:04.000 --> 0:03:04.120 Uh. 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:06.680 Uh, they're not too too strict Onna wait here. They 0:03:06.840 --> 0:03:09.280 just whatever you could play at and you're good at 0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.239 and you're in shape, that's what they let you roll with. 0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:12.760 But I feel like best for me is just being 0:03:12.760 --> 0:03:15.120 a slimmer, uh, being able to still fly around, then 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:16.400 the game still be being me. 0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:19.520 As you're going into the year in your contract here, 0:03:20.120 --> 0:03:22.000 do you ever think about, I mean, whether you have 0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:22.360 a future. 0:03:22.360 --> 0:03:23.960 Do you feel like you have a future still here 0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:24.560 in Baltimore? 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:24.880 Uh? 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:26.679 Yeah? Uh, But like I said at the end of 0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.200 the day, I ain't focused on the future. I'm just 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:30.520 focused on right now. And I think if I take 0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.240 care of my business and do what I'm supposed to do, 0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:33.720 all that's gonna fall into place. 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.880 And now when you have good this year with this defenses, right, Okay, Now, 0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:38.600 last year you you, I know, the one of the 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:40.720 emphasis was you wanted to really show you could be 0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:43.720 at all a three down linebacker. And as the year 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:44.680 went on, you were able to show that. 0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:46.560 What's kind of your focus going into this year. What's 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:47.600 the next place of your game? 0:03:47.640 --> 0:03:51.120 You wanna see just staying going, just staying consistent, going up, 0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:54.160 always just getting better, uh, never taking a step back. Think, 0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:56.440 the biggest thing for me was to consistent over over 0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:58.240 the years, me and consistent and stuff. So I think 0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:00.680 now it's just the point of me just playing my 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:02.840 game and playing out our level and planning consistently. 0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:05.920 Did you feel like a gun player still? I mean, you're. 0:04:09.440 --> 0:04:12.400 Brooks coming in. There's twenty five, twenty six. I'm like, 0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:16.520 y'all are old, but I mean four years in and 0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:19.120 still feel like I'm just getting here. So I mean, uh, 0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:22.000 it's just I'm a bus to be this young and 0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:24.800 being going into year fours. Souh, you know, I just 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:26.599 think you parents having me when they did. 0:04:27.760 --> 0:04:29.760 Seeing how that the defense was last year in the 0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:31.719 core of that coming back this year, then you see 0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:33.680 what they're doing on offensive for all the gidiations from 0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:37.520 aar locked up. What's I mean, where's your expectation for 0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:39.360 this team? Is it kind of like a super Bowl bus. 0:04:39.320 --> 0:04:39.640 Kind of thing? 0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:40.120 What do you feel? 0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:42.479 I think everybody around the locker room is saying super 0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:43.880 Bowl is I don't think it's super Bowl bus. I 0:04:43.880 --> 0:04:45.279 think it's just super Bowl because you know how to 0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:48.760 bust mindset an any year you come in your mindset 0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:50.840 to get to the super Bowl. So, uh, with the 0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:52.960 keep with the pieces we got with the defense, we 0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:56.320 got the offense, we got the new coordinator, Uh everything, 0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:59.720 special teams, we got head coach, everything, the whole organization. 0:04:59.839 --> 0:05:01.719 Every than we got we need. We got right here. 0:05:01.920 --> 0:05:02.920 We don't need anything else. 0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:05.279 And talks about living in the now, and I see 0:05:05.279 --> 0:05:07.120 you change into your NiFe slides really quick. 0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:09.640 How big is comfort when you're dressing yourself in comes 0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:10.080 an outfit. 0:05:10.680 --> 0:05:14.240 I'm not a big outfit guy, super country long sleeve shirt, 0:05:14.480 --> 0:05:17.640 some shorts are sweats and some sandals and I'm good, 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:18.880 that's rude. 0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:21.560 We just talked to to market. You know, played against 0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:23.080 someone the practice field for a couple of years now, I 0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:23.560 G it's just. 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:24.520 How valuable is it? 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:26.560 Kind of a receiver like that, just from growing up 0:05:26.600 --> 0:05:28.520 as I can, I can go get your first time. 0:05:28.560 --> 0:05:28.880 Basically. 0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:32.520 Remember, I think Mark, Uh, he's just deceptively fast. 0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:33.000 Uh. 0:05:33.120 --> 0:05:34.520 I think you look at him on film, you don't 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:36.000 think he's that fast. Well, once you get into him 0:05:36.000 --> 0:05:39.840 in person, Mark and Roll and his routs, best routes 0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:42.560 out of the tight end group. Uh, just he's everything. 0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:45.880 Yeah that you want a tight end her reliable, great hands, 0:05:46.200 --> 0:05:48.680 the runner routes, big guy, he go up and get 0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:50.560 the ball and he he does it all. So when 0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:52.160 you got a guy like that, that's why he got 0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:52.800 paid what he got. 0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:54.200 Patrick. 0:05:54.200 --> 0:05:56.000 Have you got to look at those uh air conditioned 0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:59.640 helmets down at LSU. Yeah, I see that. I I 0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:01.120 don't think gotta need to. I think at the end 0:06:01.120 --> 0:06:03.159 of the day, we've been fine without them. 0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:03.479 Uh. 0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:05.919 If that helps, I mean, go for it. If not, 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:07.720 then I mean I'm I'm good without it. I don't 0:06:07.720 --> 0:06:08.000 need it. 0:06:08.040 --> 0:06:09.359 So you. 0:06:11.600 --> 0:06:14.960 So Mark, you added some of some pieces at wide 0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:17.799 receiver around here a part of this pass and attack. 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:20.280 How good this pat could this pass attack be? 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:21.880 If you I think it's super exciting. 0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:24.440 You know, I just uh from being out here for him, 0:06:24.600 --> 0:06:27.840 you know, the last two days and obviously seeing as 0:06:27.880 --> 0:06:31.880 they run some routes he was run some incredible routes 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:34.720 today getting open and then obviously OBJ and and some 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:37.320 some of the other young guys that I'm excited about. 0:06:37.360 --> 0:06:38.800 I think it's gonna be a dangerous offense. 0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:42.839 I've really loved with, you know, coach Monkins, you know, 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:44.719 had to teach and the way he's teaching and his 0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:49.320 energy that brings very enthusiastic. So I think the sky's 0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:51.839 the limit. I think for us it's just about you know, 0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:54.600 taking charge, taking control of this offense, making it ours 0:06:54.640 --> 0:06:57.080 and just keep on going and keep on working. 0:06:57.240 --> 0:06:57.440 Mark. 0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:00.000 But you know you've ever been here a couple day 0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:03.200 for your conversation, because what really stood out about him 0:07:03.200 --> 0:07:05.279 knowing he's gonna be off just fired. 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:05.480 Man. 0:07:05.480 --> 0:07:08.080 He's super enthusiastic about what he's teaching. He really believes 0:07:08.080 --> 0:07:10.520 in his stuff, and you know it makes us believe 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:13.840 in it too. So you know, his offense is definitely 0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:18.080 very player friendly. He's very very player friendly, and I'm 0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:20.120 just excited to get around him, you know, pick his 0:07:20.160 --> 0:07:22.560 brain and continue to grow as a player, but as 0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:24.600 an offense and get this thing rolling. 0:07:24.720 --> 0:07:26.480 Is there any concern there are not enough balls to 0:07:26.520 --> 0:07:28.840 go around with all these additions in the past. 0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:30.440 Game, I don't really care. 0:07:30.600 --> 0:07:32.360 You know, I'm not one of those guys that cares 0:07:32.400 --> 0:07:35.520 about that.

And that's what makes a team great, 0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:47.200 is the unselfishness all these you see. 0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:50.000 That as a possibility, defenses can just time man, only 0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:51.160 eager that you might. 0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:54.040 Have more offers, you know, maybe you know, uh, yeah, 0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:56.520 you know the last you know, I guess five years. 0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:57.840 It's been you know, a lot of attention. 0:07:57.960 --> 0:08:00.720 And you know, I'm blessed to be able to to 0:08:00.760 --> 0:08:02.520 be around these great players right now and have a 0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:05.320 lot of pieces to help me out.

I'm gonna go out and do 0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:10.440 what I do, win my one on ones when my 0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:12.880 you know, double teams and just play ball. 0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:16.760 Last offense obviously was very tight and centric in the 0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:17.320 past and game. 0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:20.600 Aren't you seeing any of those same in this new offense? 0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:23.760 Very featured, you know, he features everybody though, And uh yeah, 0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:25.360 I think that's the great part about it is that 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:29.600 we're gonna be able to be extremely you know, you know, 0:08:29.680 --> 0:08:32.560 diversify what we're doing, you know, outside receivers, inside receivers, 0:08:32.600 --> 0:08:36.599 tight ends and different reads.
