1
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:04,520
Speaker 1: Happy Friday, everybody, and we'll sell then these are years

2
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:08,719
Speaker 1: good morning football headlines from NFL Network. Ken Newton, who

3
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: is heading into his second year in New England, will

4
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: be looking behind his shoulder when training camp opens up

5
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:17,159
Speaker 1: the summer, the Patriots selecting quarterback Mac Jones with the

6
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:20,520
Speaker 1: fifteenth overall pick in the twenty twenty one NFL Draft,

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,360
Speaker 1: and a coach Bill Belichick saying all the qbs have

8
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: a lot to work on, but was very complimentary about

9
00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: Newton's commitment to the team. Cam's been here, um, you

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 1: know all the way through. Um he was here you

11
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: know at the beginning, and you know, has been been

12
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: a consistent participant. You know, it continues to give us

13
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:44,800
Speaker 1: the usual, um you know leadership. Cam's camp's very professional

14
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 1: and I'm sure that he'll, you know, continue to work

15
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 1: hard to do his best out there like he's always

16
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,519
Speaker 1: done forced. It's never been anything about that from the

17
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: day he got here. Now, one QB that has no

18
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,000
Speaker 1: threat of a rookie taking his spot is New Rams

19
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: quarterback match Stafford Angeles, paying a hefty price to acquire

20
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: the former Detroit Lion, giving up two future first round picks,

21
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: a third round pick, and of course quarterback Jared Goff.

22
00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: It might be a concern to some, but not Ram,

23
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: said coach Sean McVeigh, who likes what he sees and

24
00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 1: Stafford so far. Your impressions of Stafford here the first

25
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: weed seeing and throw the ball at just all the

26
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 1: you know, I guess you know, the arm, talent and

27
00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,959
Speaker 1: everything that you've heard about. To see it up close

28
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: and personal here, what do you think, Look, good man,

29
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: there's some zip on that ball? Yeah, I look, you know,

30
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 1: I'm right there with you. No, it's and I think

31
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 1: we're in the early phases of it. But you know,

32
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: certainly the way that he's handled things up to this point,

33
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: been very pleased. It's enjoy to be around every single day.

34
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: The consistency that he comes in to work with is

35
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: definitely something that he makes it really fun and I know,

36
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: been pleased with what he's done up to this point.

37
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: For Ram. Tad Gurley visiting the Lions and took a

38
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: physical Thursday. According to our very own Tom Pallisero, the

39
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: All Pro running back starting fifteen games last season for

40
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: the Falcons and rush for nine touchdowns. Happy twenty fourth

41
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: birthday the Giants quarterback Daniel Jones, the sixth pick in

42
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: the twenty nineteen NFL draft, is looking to make the

43
00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: leap in his third season under center for the g Men,

44
00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: and knows that he can't do it alone. It's gonna

45
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: take the entire offense. You know, it's on all of us.

46
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,239
Speaker 1: It's on all eleven guys to you know, do their job,

47
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 1: every player to step out, and you know, that's how

48
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 1: we're gonna make big plays. Is everyone doing their job.

49
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,399
Speaker 1: And it's not on any one person more than the other.

50
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 1: It's it's about everyone executing together as a unit. And

51
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: you know that's how we're gonna create exposed to plays,

52
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: you know, and be a productive offense. Earlier this month,

53
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: Tyrn Matthew tweeting out and then deleting that he probably

54
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: wouldn't get a contract extension with the Chiefs. Addressing the

55
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: Thursday issue, Matthew walked it back a little bit, saying

56
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:58,480
Speaker 1: he knows it's a business and he needs to control

57
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: what he can control. Aaron Rodgers still a no show

58
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: at OTA's. He's getting support from former Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith,

59
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: who knows what it's like for a team to draft

60
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: his replacement Smith's and not mincing words on Fox Sports

61
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: one about what the Packers have done the Rogers. It's inexcusable.

62
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: It's absolutely and I think sixteen years this guy's been there. Here,

63
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: you're on the doorstep of the Super Bowl, and you

64
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 1: don't go out of your way to communicate that and

65
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,959
Speaker 1: to show that he's you know that, hey, you're wanted.

66
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: It's maybe something we're doing. Sorry, and you know, but

67
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: like you don't make sure that everybody's on the same

68
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: page and feeling good about that. I think you know,

69
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: it's not just football, that's any business or team. The

70
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: Jets drafting Zach Wilson second overall, and the rookie QB

71
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: is off to an impressive start. Head coach Robert Salis

72
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: saying Thursday that Wilson has been relentless and wanting to learn.

73
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: It's a good decision maker with the live arm. Sounds

74
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: like Jets fans said, something to be excited about. And

75
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 1: it's been a bumpy start for Drew Locke in Denver,

76
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 1: where he now finds himself impeting with Teddy Bridgewater for

77
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 1: the starting quarterback job. Locke turning to the former Broncos

78
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: QB Peyton Manning for some help in the film room,

79
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: Manning telling the Denver Post that they watched some of

80
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 1: Manning's old film and talked about what he liked about

81
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: different coverages. You know, QB stop. Well, my time is up.

82
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: I hope you have yourself a great weekend. By the way,

83
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: it just heads up, we're on bay Can next week,

84
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: so we won't be back with another podcast until Jane seventh.

85
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: An a compassing team until then, and we'll celeber and

86
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 1: those who would get more in football headlines from NFL
