1
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: Joins us. Now we're going to start with questions. Will

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:08,520
Speaker 1: begin with Michael Burley, followed by Zach Coox, Bill, how

3
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:12,080
Speaker 1: are you good? I have a question about you're running

4
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: backs beyond Damien and Romandre with Kevin Strong and Hry

5
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: Pierre Strong and Kevin Harris. Haven't seen much of them.

6
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 1: We haven't seen much of them. What have you seen

7
00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:23,560
Speaker 1: from them in their progress this year in practice and

8
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 1: uh in the meeting rooms? Um? Yeah, I mean they're

9
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 1: they're making progress like um, you would want to expect

10
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 1: rookies too. Pierre has played a little more in the

11
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 1: kicking game. UM. And Um. Again, those guys get a

12
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,560
Speaker 1: lot of carries in the scout team periods, um, along

13
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,080
Speaker 1: with JJ and so you know, we have confidence in

14
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 1: all those players and they're they work hard, they're getting better. Um.

15
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 1: There's a couple of good players in front of them. Thanks, welcome,

16
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: Thanks Zach Coxfeld with Chris running Hey, Bill, I know

17
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: stacks aren't everything for pass rushers, but Josh and Change

18
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: has been able to be pretty consistently productive over these

19
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 1: last couple of weeks in that area. Just in your

20
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: view of what has allowed you to have that kind

21
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: of production? Yeah, well, I think the biggest thing for

22
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 1: Josh this year has just really been his availability. Josh

23
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: is a good athlete, and he has good speed off

24
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: the edge and good pass rush techniques, but may you

25
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 1: build that through timing, consistency and running games of your

26
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 1: teammates and so forth, and and he's done that since

27
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 1: he's been here, but this year he's been able to

28
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,400
Speaker 1: do it on a more consistent basis in practice, in

29
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: training camp and really build that continuity as opposed to

30
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: kind of being in and out of things and sometimes

31
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 1: not fully being available for some of the roles that

32
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: this year he's really been available for on really almost

33
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: a daily basis, So that I think that's helped him

34
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: as much as anything, just his consistency and the continuity

35
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,119
Speaker 1: he's been able to establish on the practice field, which

36
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: is carried over into the games, which is carried over

37
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: into higher production and more opportunities. Great, thank you here.

38
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:33,079
Speaker 1: You're a Chris Ryan, followed by Andrew Kellyan. Hey Bill,

39
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 1: how are you good? Chris? I had kind of a

40
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: big picture question about players the offensive skilled positions. Obviously,

41
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 1: you're seeing a lot of really talented guys, you know,

42
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: over the last a couple of weeks. Do you feel

43
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: that these players are you know, better, faster, quicker, more

44
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:53,880
Speaker 1: talented than guys of the past. Have we've seen an

45
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: evolution in that area where guys are continuing to get

46
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 1: better or I certain guys playing in air m that's

47
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 1: a good question. Um. I don't know. I've seen a

48
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: lot of great players at that position through the years,

49
00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: so I'm not sure about you know, the comparisons, um,

50
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,519
Speaker 1: but we've certainly had to cover um, you know, whether

51
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: it's the Marvin Harrison's who's in the Hall of Fame

52
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: or Randy Moss who we've had or covered who's in

53
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame. Um, you know, players like that.

54
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 1: We can rattle off quite a few more. But that's

55
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: those players are pretty good. They demanded a lot of

56
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: attention and if you didn't give it to them, um,

57
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: and they had good quarterbacks, they were able to rack

58
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: up a lot of yards. So I don't know, it's

59
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: an interesting question, um, but certainly there's a lot of

60
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: great skilled players in the game now, but I think

61
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: that's always kind of been the case. Yeah, it was

62
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: starting to launch tell about that, and he said, you know,

63
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: basically like Mahomes is the same as the random Cunningham was,

64
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: but perhaps he's given more wee way to do things

65
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 1: like do you feel that these schemes have changed, but

66
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 1: a guy like Huntingham or Warren Moon could do similar

67
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:18,279
Speaker 1: stuff to whether it's homes or Kyler Murray, Well, I

68
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: agree with I would agree with him on that. I

69
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 1: think the schemes have changed. You see the quarterbacks in

70
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: the shotgun way more than they were, you know, fifteen

71
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: twenty years ago, and certainly before that. You see way

72
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: more passes than we've seen. If you go back to

73
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:39,280
Speaker 1: some of the earlier Super Bowls, twenty passes in a

74
00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 1: game kind of thing, you know, now you get that

75
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 1: before the end of the first half. So and certainly

76
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:51,800
Speaker 1: a lot of the passing plays that are you know,

77
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,919
Speaker 1: extensions of running players getting the ball to two guys

78
00:04:54,960 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: in space wherever that's our pos or little bubble passes

79
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: and things like that. More receivers on the field and

80
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 1: fewer blockers on the field just gives quarterback more guys

81
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,000
Speaker 1: a throw too. And so you know, I think we've

82
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: seen the schemes and the game definitely changed to statistically

83
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: where you see a lot more passes, a lot more completions,

84
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: a lot more yards, a lot fewer rushing attempts. So yeah,

85
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: I agree with that. Thanks, You're welcome next special and

86
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: you're killing him fall away to Karrena. Hey, Bill, I

87
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: wanted to follow up in your answer to a question

88
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,359
Speaker 1: Phil had yesterday regarding a possible changeing offensive play caller

89
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 1: because you said you feel good about this system be

90
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,240
Speaker 1: having place, include the offensive staff, you would whatever the

91
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: process is specific to the offense. What makes you feel

92
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 1: good about it. Yeah, Look, I'm not saying that we

93
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 1: can't improve in every area, because we can so and

94
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: we'll continue to try to do that. And so that's

95
00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: across the board, plays, plays, coaches, decisions, etc. Like We're

96
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,280
Speaker 1: always trying to improve all the time. We'll continue to

97
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: do that. So that's that's where we are, That's where

98
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,479
Speaker 1: we have then that's probably where we always will be.

99
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,800
Speaker 1: It's always trying to do a little bit better and

100
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 1: try to find the best ways to be successful. Yeah,

101
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: I think it's more in the question. You know, the

102
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: positive things that are coming out from the current system

103
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: in places understand are always trying to get better, always

104
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: doing things with the intention to win. Where are you

105
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:38,640
Speaker 1: encouraged within the current offensive system. Yeah, and again, success

106
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: comes through consistency, and that's really what we're trying to

107
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 1: build towards. Always more consistency, more production, and we'll continue

108
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 1: to try to work towards that. Next question to Clarino

109
00:06:55,960 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: will be marketing Bill. I believe bar Horizells will come

110
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: to start practicing next week. Do you expect him to

111
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: travel out west with you this weekend or is that

112
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,640
Speaker 1: not something that you'll really be able to know until

113
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 1: later in the week. Right, Well, we won't make any

114
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:20,920
Speaker 1: decision until UM it's time to make that decision. But UM, Yeah,

115
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: Christian's making good progress. We'll evaluate it, UM, and we

116
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 1: do daily. We see him daily and he's working hard,

117
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: making progress. But we'll see exactly where he is and

118
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 1: what he'll be ready to do and when he'll be

119
00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: ready to do it. UM. So we'll talk to the

120
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:43,280
Speaker 1: UM you know, the medical and training staff and strength staff,

121
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: the people have been working most closely with him trying

122
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,600
Speaker 1: to get him ready for that. UM. You know, the

123
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: time frame that the legal allows UM is obviously relevant

124
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: because we can't exceed that or we can't go in

125
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: front of that. But ultimately it comes down to what

126
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,160
Speaker 1: the player's physical status is and what he can do,

127
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 1: and so that determination will be made by the by

128
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: the people that are working with him on that that

129
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 1: rehab and and and then that process. So um, yeah,

130
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 1: well we'll see how it goes here at the end

131
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: of the week. Thank you, Yeah, you're welcome. Sure, thanks.

132
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: Mark Daniels called by Kyrie Thompson, bill um, sort of

133
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 1: similar question one, Marcus Cannon. Is he in a position

134
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: where you know you can return and play for you

135
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: this season or you know, is he done due to

136
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: his injury? And kind of follow up to that would

137
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 1: be just what has to improve your past protection? I

138
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: know this year you guys have allowed your more saction

139
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 1: to last year. The numbers sometimes in this league, and

140
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 1: we would ask to them from there. All right, well, Marcus,

141
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: a situation like everyone's every player who's um is dealing

142
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 1: with anything or is on injury reserve would be you know,

143
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 1: a case by case basis, and and those injuries are

144
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:03,640
Speaker 1: are a little bit different. Injuries are different, so they'll

145
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 1: be treated differently based on the different individuals. But again, yeah, collectively, offensively,

146
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: it's about you know, overall team execution. Some of the

147
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: you know, things are all the things that we can

148
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 1: talk about are are somewhat interrelated. I mean, obviously the

149
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: passing game is a function of protection, timing, coverage, decision making, etc.

150
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: So sometimes there's good protection and not good throwing opportunities.

151
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: Sometimes they're good throwing opportunities not to protection and so forth.

152
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: Sometimes it could be a combination of things. So it's

153
00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: really about the execution, you know, of the individual plays.

154
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: You know, we've had good plays, we've had bad plays.

155
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 1: They haven't all come on the same type of play.

156
00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,960
Speaker 1: Not everything falls into the same bucket, you know, three

157
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 1: step drops, five step drops, deeper drops, play action, quarterback

158
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 1: movement plays, et cetera. Third down plays, first down plays.

159
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: So it's it's really there are a number of different

160
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: things that you know that go into to this discussion,

161
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: and I appreciate the question, but it really it transcends

162
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: a lot of you know, overall execution of the particular

163
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 1: play that was called against the team and the defense

164
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 1: that we're facing, and whatever plays haven't gone well, we

165
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: have to address either better design or better execution or

166
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 1: better timing or something so that you know, we don't

167
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:47,680
Speaker 1: have negative plays. Thank you, Yeah, thanks, Next question, Kerry

168
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: Thompson for what everyone was our coach. We talked to

169
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,480
Speaker 1: a bunch about Marcus Jones as as a return man

170
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 1: and what he did on offense last Thursday, But he

171
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,600
Speaker 1: also got some early action on defense, had a good

172
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 1: play on a gave Davis. I believe where has how

173
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 1: far has he come defensively, you know as as a

174
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 1: cornerback and what about you know, his skill set in

175
00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:16,680
Speaker 1: his development made you want to put him out there,

176
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: you know, in such a big game against those receivers

177
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 1: last Thursday, Well, we were um a little short at

178
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:32,680
Speaker 1: corner compared to where we usually we're with Jalen Mills inactive.

179
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 1: So um, that's I'd say, that's certainly part of the

180
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,199
Speaker 1: answer to the question. But um, again of the big

181
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 1: thing for Marcus was his availability and ability to practice

182
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,160
Speaker 1: and and work on his fundamentals and techniques and improve

183
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: and and so he didn't have a lot of that

184
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:00,680
Speaker 1: opportunity in the spring. Uh. And then was um a

185
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 1: couple of weeks to lay getting back into that in

186
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,960
Speaker 1: the into training camp. And I'd say at that point

187
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,079
Speaker 1: there were some other people that were ahead of them,

188
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 1: not necessarily because they were um, you know that he

189
00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: was deficient. He just hadn't had a lot of opportunity

190
00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 1: to uh to even be out there, and so um

191
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:27,160
Speaker 1: and overall, our our cornerback depths has been pretty competitive. Um.

192
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: You know, Jack had a good had a good training

193
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:34,040
Speaker 1: camp and and you know has has made some solid

194
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:38,120
Speaker 1: plays for us in that area. And so again it's

195
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 1: just how many of those guys can you get on

196
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 1: the field, you know, Miles Jalen, John Jones, Jack Um

197
00:12:46,640 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 1: and so forth. Not to mention the you know, the

198
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 1: competition at safety um with you know, our four players

199
00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: there that have a lot of playing time. So um.

200
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: So again, Marcus has continue to work hard, continue to

201
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: improve his fundamentals, have gotten betters, communication, experience, anticipation, all

202
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 1: those things. But just having a chance to do it

203
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 1: um has been a big, big plus for him. And

204
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 1: as he's gotten more opportunity, he's gotten better. He's gotten

205
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,359
Speaker 1: more comfortable with his teammates, They've gotten more comfortable with him, communication,

206
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,760
Speaker 1: you know, recognizing things, making adjustments, that type of thing.

207
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: So it's it's been a combination of all those but

208
00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: just you know, having him out there on a on

209
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 1: a daily basis and him getting the opportunity to do

210
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: it has been beneficial to him and certainly the rest

211
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 1: of the secondary appreciate it. Yeah, you're walking, Thanks Christian,

212
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: everyone was our fulvictul Pury, Hey, coach, I wanted to

213
00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: ask you about Marcus as well, and just how you

214
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: guys go about deciding, you know, how many snaps he

215
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,120
Speaker 1: plays in each phase of the game, you know, and

216
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,960
Speaker 1: not overworking him or is there a limit to you know,

217
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 1: being able to play him on offense, defense, and special

218
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 1: teams at a pretty good clip right, Well, I'm sure

219
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 1: there's a limit here. Um. You know, his roles in

220
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: the kicking game have really you have been in the

221
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 1: two return phases and uh and on some kickoff coverage

222
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:18,400
Speaker 1: UM plays. And then defensively he's played both inside and

223
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: outside and you know, offensively played a handful snaps last week.

224
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: So we'll just continue to evaluate that and try to

225
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 1: again find ways that, um, that he can help the

226
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: team that that would be most beneficial to his utilization.

227
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: I don't think he's been you know, overtaxed in any

228
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 1: of those areas, but as you point out, potentially could

229
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: they add up. Sure, We've dealt with this before with

230
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: other players that have really been more offensive players. Like

231
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: Troy Brown and Edelman who have also played defense. Of course,

232
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 1: both those players returned kicks and and we're involved in

233
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,520
Speaker 1: the kicking game as well. So um, and we've had

234
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,120
Speaker 1: some experience with this type of you know, this type

235
00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 1: of player, this type of thing before, um, but each

236
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,320
Speaker 1: case is a little bit different and we'll we'll see

237
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 1: how it goes. But um, you know, he's a player

238
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: that has some um good skills and we'll we'll try

239
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: to see how it all plays out. And as quickly

240
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,000
Speaker 1: has he got any experience in your system with with

241
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,880
Speaker 1: downfield routes or you know, we posted saw him like

242
00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,480
Speaker 1: on the screen or a jet motion or something like that.

243
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:34,600
Speaker 1: But but has he run any any of the route

244
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: tree at all? Right, Well, he's you know who only

245
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 1: played a handful of plays here against Buffalo and and um,

246
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: but yeah, well we'll see what we'll see what he

247
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 1: can well you know, what he has done what we'd

248
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: be able to get to and again, some of that's

249
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,760
Speaker 1: a function of other factors, you know, outside of him,

250
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 1: not just what he can do, but what you know,

251
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: what where other people would go and how they would develop.

252
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: So we'll just have to wait and see if its

253
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: certainly he has been explosive with a ball in his hands.

254
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: We've all seen that. Thank yous are two final questions

255
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 1: will get full hurry fallow by Dakota Rangel. Hey, Bill,

256
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 1: wanted to ask you something that Troy Brown mentioned the

257
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: other day what he was asked about Tai Kwon board

258
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 1: and he said something to the effect of, you don't

259
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,520
Speaker 1: necessarily have to be catching a lot of passes to

260
00:16:30,560 --> 00:16:34,760
Speaker 1: have an impact on the game. Have you seen markers

261
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: of progress from Tai Kwon and some of those other

262
00:16:38,120 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 1: areas just based on the fact if if you're looking

263
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: at the box scart scores, you know, really since that

264
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,640
Speaker 1: Cleveland gave me great the two touchdowns, he's been sort

265
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: of quiet terms of statistical production. But are you seeing

266
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:55,160
Speaker 1: him advance in other areas? Yeah, definitely, Yeah. I think

267
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,880
Speaker 1: Troy put it well. Um yeah, I certainly wouldn't argue

268
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 1: with that. Is there anything in particular that has struck

269
00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 1: you about his progress over the last several weeks here?

270
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, it's been it's been consistent. Um again, Um,

271
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 1: similar to the conversation we just had with Marcus Um.

272
00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,679
Speaker 1: You know, Ty was a little bit limited in the spring,

273
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 1: got off through a good starting training camp, got injured

274
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 1: in the Carolina game, miss the rest of preseason, miss

275
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,960
Speaker 1: the old hood part of the season, work back in

276
00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 1: now he's for several weeks now, he's been out there

277
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,200
Speaker 1: on a on a regular basis, practicing every day, playing

278
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: and um again, taking the box score out of it,

279
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 1: just in terms of assignments, execution adjustments, playing multiple positions

280
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: based on the formation, things like that, all those have been,

281
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: um been progress for him. So the more he can

282
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: be out there, the more he can have the opportunity

283
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: to play and learn and get experience and improve. Um yeah,

284
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 1: the better. And he's done all that. Thank you, welcome.

285
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:20,160
Speaker 1: Last question to Cardinal Yeah, Bill, kind of a random

286
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:24,120
Speaker 1: question Chris's question and mentioning of LT earlier. I'll be wondering,

287
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,320
Speaker 1: and I know you're focused on your own team and

288
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:28,199
Speaker 1: your own players. I don't even know how much you've

289
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 1: been able to watch with him. A lot of people,

290
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 1: former players and coaches have compared Michael Parsons to Lawrence Taylor.

291
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 1: I just wondering when you think of those comparisons whether

292
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: they're fair. Maybe not from a career accomplish from the

293
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:44,679
Speaker 1: standpoint obviously, but like a raw town standpoint. Yeah, you know,

294
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 1: we saw parsons last year and that was pretty early

295
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 1: in the season. Um you know, we don't. We don't

296
00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,960
Speaker 1: see a lot of them, so um yeah, I'd be

297
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:54,959
Speaker 1: a hard question for me to answer. I appreciate it,

298
00:18:55,840 --> 00:19:03,320
Speaker 1: but yeah, b yeah, that's not not taking any away

299
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: from anybody. It's just I haven't really seen a lot

300
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:08,719
Speaker 1: of it. Um, be hard for me to put anybody

301
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: ahead of LT, but but maybe ours, I don't know. Thanks,

302
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: thank you, Thanks coach, Thanks everyone, all right, thank you
