1
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:02,520
Speaker 1: Your work week is over.

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:03,080
Speaker 2: Plan.

3
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: If you don't come in tomorrow, don't bother coming in.

4
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:07,720
Speaker 3: Monday for the weekend.

5
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,639
Speaker 2: This is the last word. The off Season Home of

6
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 2: the Colts with Jeffrey Gorman and Matt Taylor.

7
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,120
Speaker 3: Mayte Boys and the Colts. How you been, partner, I'm good, buddy.

8
00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:21,599
Speaker 1: Happy Friday, Happy weekend.

9
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 3: What's up? They're getting ready to go to Boston. We'll

10
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,040
Speaker 3: talk about that later. Got some entertainment news coming up

11
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 3: from the show. Hopefully we can sprinkle in a little

12
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 3: Cincinnati Reds talk always all right, little dab talk about

13
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 3: how what a job David Bell is down there?

14
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:38,720
Speaker 1: The game tonight? Do it? Oh first game after the

15
00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: All Star.

16
00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,200
Speaker 4: Let's go, boy Brewers back to back, front and back

17
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:44,440
Speaker 4: sandwich between the All Star break with the brew crew.

18
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 3: I am not looking for the bad in this team

19
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 3: at all, but I will say this, give me another

20
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:53,240
Speaker 3: arm or two or three. Just give me another arm

21
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 3: or two before you go into this playoff hunt. And

22
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 3: good on you Red Legs, because I'm telling you they're

23
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 3: getting the rounding states that are.

24
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: Around the Ohio Red's Country.

25
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 3: All of a sudden, you know, you and Joey Vado,

26
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 3: you know what. I had an argument that almost led

27
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:09,759
Speaker 3: to fisticuffs a couple of months ago.

28
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 4: Exactly, he's a Hall of famer.

29
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 3: I mean, he's he's going into the Hall of Fame.

30
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 3: Plus he's a lot of fun all right, baseball talk

31
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 3: on the back very awkward human. I heard an interview

32
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 3: with him, very awkward. It was so funny. He was

33
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 3: like talking about the weekend. That's all he wanted to

34
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:27,160
Speaker 3: talk about, was the artist the weekend rather than the

35
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 3: run that the Reds have been on, and about his

36
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 3: love for him. He's, you know, reciting lyrics.

37
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 4: Like great ballplayer, a centric dude, you know, entertaining, funny

38
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:36,679
Speaker 4: but also just awkward.

39
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,480
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, a little bit very much. But he'll be

40
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 3: waltzing into the Hall of Fame Joey Vado when it's

41
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 3: all said and done. And right, by the way, I'm sorry,

42
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:44,559
Speaker 3: I know it's a football show, but Max Clark number

43
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 3: three overall, how do you where you went to college?

44
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: Yeah?

45
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,520
Speaker 3: That's right. And my Detroit Tigers, who are now on

46
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 3: the back burner because I jumped on the Cincinnati Reds bandwagon. Yes, sir,

47
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 3: Now they got the young kid. What a phenom he is.

48
00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 3: He runs like the wind. He's got a hose on him.

49
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 3: He throws seeds. He's going to hit for power, gonna.

50
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,840
Speaker 4: Hit for five tool, five tools, just like show that's go, boys.

51
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 3: Let's talk some football coming up on tonight's show. We're

52
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 3: gonna preview the training camp coming up in a couple

53
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 3: of weeks, and you can find out all the information

54
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 3: on Colts dot com. Make your plans with the family

55
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 3: and the kids and everybody who've got aunts and uncles

56
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 3: from out of town, bring them out there. It's gonna

57
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 3: be a lot of fun. We're also gonna be talking

58
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 3: about the defensive secondary of this Colts defense. You talk

59
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 3: about a few holes that need to be filled, mate,

60
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 3: who are they gonna turn to at cornerback? Isaiah Rodgers

61
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 3: gone suspended twenty twenty three season, released by the Colts.

62
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 3: Don't forget face on face gone so to find Gilmore's Yeah,

63
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 3: I mean with those guys, that's a lot of reps

64
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 3: over there. Also gonna hear from Kenny Moore coming up

65
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 3: on in the show. But Mayte, we talked about this

66
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 3: defensive secondary second year under Gus Bradley. Let's start there

67
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 3: with the Isaiah Rodgers departure. Who are they gonna turn

68
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 3: to at the outside cornerback position. What is this defensive secondary,

69
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 3: especially in the outside cornerback position.

70
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: Look to you, now you're right.

71
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 4: I mean no position group is more up in the

72
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 4: air than this defensive secondary, particularly at corner And I

73
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 4: think it's going to be a fluid situation, meaning that

74
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 4: the guys that are out there day one of training camp,

75
00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 4: that doesn't necessarily mean that's going to be the starting

76
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 4: defensive secondary week one of the regular season. I mean,

77
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 4: now that the top three cornerbacks from last season are gone,

78
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 4: that means your only consistent starter that returns is Kenny Moore,

79
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 4: and he's primarily a nickel corner. So you look at

80
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 4: a Dallas Flowers. You got one hundred and seventy four

81
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:29,239
Speaker 4: snaps to end last season. Got more of a run

82
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 4: on defense towards the end of last year because of injuries.

83
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 4: Darryl Baker Junior, he was on the Colts practice squad

84
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 4: last year, played a bit on special teams. He was

85
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 4: running with the first team defense in the spring. But

86
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 4: I think that was primarily because you had some highly

87
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 4: tautted rookies that were unable to be out there because

88
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 4: of injuries. Right, you had Juju Brentz, Darius Rush, they

89
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 4: were banged up in the spring. I think it's going

90
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 4: to be wide open right now, and you don't have

91
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 4: any concrete answers going into training camp. Every day of

92
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,839
Speaker 4: training camp, every day of those joint practices with either

93
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 4: the Bears or the Eagles, those are going to hold

94
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 4: a lot of important chips, if you will. And putting

95
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 4: this puzzle together on who is going to give the

96
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 4: Colts some stability at cornerback given all that you lost

97
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 4: in the off season, Mayday, we got rookie cornerbacks that

98
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 4: are going to see the field this year. Obviously, Juju

99
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 4: Brench you talked about Darius Rush, which one of those

100
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 4: rookies is gonna make the biggest impact. And the reason

101
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 4: I'm asking at is, of course you're thinking the second

102
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,719
Speaker 4: rounder is going to be and he's a freak.

103
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 3: He's got a long reach on everything on Juju obviously

104
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 3: couldn't go at it when the OTA's were going on here,

105
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 3: but guys need to play reps. You mentioned Flowers and

106
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 3: guys that have been here with Baker, etc. How much

107
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 3: you think about Darius Rush coming in and making an impact?

108
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I think both of those guys squarely

109
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 4: in the mix, and again, unfortunately they were unable to

110
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 4: participate in the offseason workout program. Not sure where they

111
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 4: stand going into training camp, but I still think it's

112
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 4: probably Brins because of where he was drafted. He's physical,

113
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 4: he's an athletic specimen posted a relative athletic score of

114
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 4: nine point ninety nine, making him literally one of the

115
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 4: most athletic cornerbacks in the history of the draft. So

116
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 4: you love the way that he plays, and just like

117
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 4: all the other cornerbacks drafted in this class, really big

118
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 4: wingspan for Brin's eighty three and five eighths wingspan ninety

119
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,600
Speaker 4: ninth percentile for cornerbacks measured at the combine in the

120
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 4: last two decades. And don't forget about Rush, don't forget

121
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 4: about Jayalen Jones, who the Colts drafted in the seventh round.

122
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 4: But I think if he's available to play most of

123
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 4: training camp and the preseason, I think Brince has a

124
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 4: chance to be the starter. I think Rush will fight

125
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 4: for playing time just because of how he's wired the

126
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,719
Speaker 4: traits that he has as well, but I think Brince

127
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 4: is probably your guy on paper that you'll like to

128
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 4: see the most impact.

129
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,160
Speaker 3: We need Rush to do something though, Matt getting him

130
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 3: in the fifth round obviously they talked about this before

131
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,920
Speaker 3: he was drafted. Huge size, physicality, and a high motor

132
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 3: shows all strong ball skills at the catch point and

133
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: the ability to track deep throws meaning he can run.

134
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 3: He's a fantastic fit. All the X out there had

135
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 3: called for this Gus Bradley defense. So we are going

136
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 3: to be looking for, you know, these rookie corners to

137
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 3: make some sort of impact, whether it's Brent's, whether it's

138
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 3: you know, Rush and so on, and find out who's

139
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,719
Speaker 3: gonna fill out this roster. Let's go deeper. Julian Blackman. Yeah,

140
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 3: making the switch from free safety to strong safety this

141
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 3: offseason huge news. It's just in the Colts community. It's

142
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 3: like a guy going from wide receiver to tight end

143
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 3: a little bit, Matt, I mean it really is on

144
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,600
Speaker 3: the defensive side. So all eyes are gonna be on Blackman.

145
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 3: Do you think he's the front runner to start the

146
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 3: season at they at the starting position rather to strong safety.

147
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do, And I think to your point, I

148
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,480
Speaker 4: think this is a fish and water move for Julian Blackman.

149
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 4: I think moving from from free to strong that's big

150
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 4: and he can do it considering his his versatility, his athleticism.

151
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 4: He's also physical, right, He's a willing tackler. He's a

152
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 4: guy that loves barking, he loves to communicate, he loves

153
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 4: to get guys lined up in the right areas. And

154
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 4: I think Jeffrey he's just one of your best overall

155
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,120
Speaker 4: defensive players. He's just a really good football player. So

156
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 4: you just want to find him a position on the field.

157
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 4: Just get him on the field. And I think with

158
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 4: the emergence of Rodney Thomas last year at free safety,

159
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 4: that has allowed the Colts some flexibility to experiment with

160
00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 4: Julian Blackman at strong safety, and by all accounts in

161
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 4: the offseason workout program, it's going pretty well. And personally

162
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 4: for Blackman, it's a really big year for him. Right,

163
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 4: He's going into the last year of his rookie contract.

164
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 4: He's gonna hit free agency in the offseason. If he

165
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 4: plays well, especially this year at strong safety, that could

166
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,440
Speaker 4: be a big feather in his cap. He could say

167
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 4: to other NFL teams, he could say, Hey, I can

168
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 4: play free, I can play strong. I've even played nickel corner. Yeah,

169
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 4: there's nothing I can't do, and that would make him

170
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 4: very attractive in free agency going into next off season.

171
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 4: And so I know we're going to talk about Nick

172
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 4: Cross here in a minute, but that would certainly make

173
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 4: it interesting for the Colts and deciding what they would

174
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 4: do with Blackman and Nick Cross, knowing they've got him

175
00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 4: on a rookie contract for at least two more years

176
00:07:58,160 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 4: after this year.

177
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, you brought him up. Keep going, Nick Cross. We

178
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 3: saw what happened last year. Early in camp, early in

179
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 3: the season, he was the guy and then that sort

180
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 3: of went south a little bit. And Hey, it's tough

181
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 3: to go from the college game to the professional game.

182
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 3: Some guys prosper in it and thrive and some guys say, hey,

183
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 3: I need a little bit more time. Where are we

184
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:17,640
Speaker 3: at with Nick Cross? But a lot of people like him,

185
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 3: great size, great physic quality, athlete like he is. What again,

186
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,679
Speaker 3: a guy like that on the field maintain Like you said,

187
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: Rodney Thomas and Blackman potentially the starters last year. What's

188
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 3: it mean for Nick Cross?

189
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 4: Well, the Colts loved him. I mean they moved up

190
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 4: high in the draft to get him, right, They traded

191
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 4: up in the third round in twenty twenty two to

192
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,120
Speaker 4: bring him in here, and he was looking good in

193
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 4: training camp last year. It appeared that he was the

194
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 4: front runner to start. In fact, he did start the

195
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 4: first couple of games, but then in week three the

196
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 4: Colts prioritized, you know, wisdom and experience in leadership, moving

197
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,680
Speaker 4: to Rodney McCleod at that position, and then he just

198
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 4: never gave the position up. He played very well every day,

199
00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 4: is going to be a competition in training camp, played

200
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 4: very well last year on special teams for the Colts.

201
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 4: In fact, he led the team and special teams tackles

202
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 4: last year with ten. So again I just go back

203
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 4: to what I said, It's going to be very interesting

204
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,360
Speaker 4: to see where the Colts are at between Blackman and

205
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 4: Nick Cross once this season ends, because they're going to

206
00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 4: have to have a decision to make on Blackman in

207
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:20,320
Speaker 4: free agency, potentially knowing they like Nick Cross, they moved

208
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,439
Speaker 4: up to get him and he still has two years

209
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 4: left on that rookie contract.

210
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 3: All right, Nick Cross, we know what time it is,

211
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:27,080
Speaker 3: may Te. We got to talk about the leader of

212
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,319
Speaker 3: this defensive backfield, a fellow that you and I are

213
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 3: gonna sit down with in a minute but Kenny Moore

214
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,679
Speaker 3: coming back from a year one in Gus Bradley's defense

215
00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 3: to year two.

216
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, no doubt about it. And we're gonna hear from

217
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,000
Speaker 4: Kenny Moore coming up in just a second. I think

218
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,079
Speaker 4: it was a good off season for him, very candid

219
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 4: in the spring about how last season went and wanting

220
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 4: to get on the same page with the coaches and

221
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 4: the staff on how he can be more of a

222
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 4: playmaker and have more of an impact in this defense

223
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,680
Speaker 4: more so than he did last year. Last year just

224
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 4: so up and down off the field and on the field.

225
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 4: I mean last spring obviously had the hold in if

226
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 4: you will, if you want to call it that, over

227
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 4: the contract, and then last season didn't record a turnover

228
00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 4: passer rating of one seventeen that was the highest number

229
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,000
Speaker 4: of his career, missed five games with that ankle injury,

230
00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,000
Speaker 4: and just said at the end of the season that

231
00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 4: he and the coaches just didn't click.

232
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 1: Well.

233
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,839
Speaker 4: I think he's kind of rectified that here in the offseason.

234
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 4: He's back for another year. By the way, he is

235
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 4: the longest tenured defensive player the Colts have going into

236
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 4: a seventh.

237
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 3: Seas about that young kennymore, Yeah, poached right now, He

238
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 3: wasn't poached from the New England. He was poached from

239
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 3: New England. Come off, that's not a poll, you know

240
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. Yeah, I'm saying like we didn't take

241
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 3: him off the practice squad, but as soon as he

242
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 3: got cut, Chris Baller jumped on it. Love Kenny Moore

243
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 3: coming out of El dast.

244
00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 4: To state absolutely, it doesn't seem like he's been here

245
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 4: that long, but seven years. He's a leader and he's

246
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 4: going to have to be the biggest leader in that

247
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 4: secondary because of all the newness around him. I just

248
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 4: think Kenny took some time to reflect and now he

249
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,680
Speaker 4: understands what he needs to give to this team. And

250
00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:00,200
Speaker 4: I think the Colts also have a better understanding of

251
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 4: what Kenny can do from a versatility standpoint in this

252
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 4: defense as a playmaker and utilize him better. And I

253
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,679
Speaker 4: think just everyone seems to be on better footing going

254
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 4: into this sack. So we're gonna hear from Kenny Moore

255
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,079
Speaker 4: coming up on a minute. That's Matt Taylor right there, folks,

256
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,320
Speaker 4: voice of the Colts. He's getting ready.

257
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,559
Speaker 3: Don't forget we got the five K, the Colts five

Speaker 3: K coming up year in and year out. It's eleventh

Speaker 3: iced tea or whatever adult beverage and have a stroll

Speaker 3: in the park for five kilometers.

263
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 4: Grabbing a soda might defeat the purpose.

264
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,600

297
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,320
Speaker 3: not to sit down with Kenny Moore. It was a

298
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 3: few days back because everybody took off for the island

299
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 3: and everything. And before he went out the door, Yes, sir,

300
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,600
Speaker 3: I said, Kenny, you said, Kenny, I say, man, can

301
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:25,079
Speaker 3: we just catch up a little bit find out about this. Yes,

302
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 3: And we talked about some things he's discussed, why he

303
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,720
Speaker 3: thinks the Colts secondary is poised for a great season,

304
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 3: and the leadership skills that he brings to this young

305
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,360
Speaker 3: defense in year two under Gus Bradley.

306
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 5: I think, like anything, you gotta do your due diligence,

307
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,440
Speaker 5: you know, having the first year in the defense on

308
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 5: to the second, it's a lot of things that we

309
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:44,760
Speaker 5: can clean up, a lot of communication that we can

310
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 5: fit and just having the extra time with the guys

311
00:13:48,400 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 5: obviously hanging out off the field and then even on

312
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 5: the field or in the meetings. Every second counts, so

313
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 5: you know, just telling the guys, you know, the way

314
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:57,640
Speaker 5: that we win the football games in the fall is

315
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 5: right here in the spring. So just trying to make

316
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 5: every day account. Obviously I wasn't here last spring, but

317
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 5: being in the room now, being on the field now,

318
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 5: to build that time with the teammates and have a

319
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,559
Speaker 5: shown face and just to build that time, it means

320
00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 5: a lot to me personally.

321
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,680
Speaker 4: Last year obviously didn't go the way from a team

322
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,840
Speaker 4: perspective that you guys wanted to go. Certainly from an

323
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 4: individual standpoint, last year didn't go the way you wanted

324
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 4: it to go. How much communication was there in the

325
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 4: off season between you and the coaching staff to make

326
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 4: sure this year collectively everything was trending in a better

327
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 4: direction for twenty twenty three as it pertains to this

328
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,040
Speaker 4: defense and your involvement inside of it.

329
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 5: I mean, just to be right here sitting with you guys,

330
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:41,480
Speaker 5: you know, a lot of communication had to take place.

331
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 5: It was very important to me and individually just to

332
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,240
Speaker 5: honestly just wind back to timeline and talk about everything

333
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 5: that took place, and just to you know, be able

334
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 5: to own up to everything on both sides, you know,

335
00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 5: just have that open space that we can, you know,

336
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 5: talk about what was wrong with me or them or

337
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 5: all of us, you know, spiritually, emotionally, mentally, everything that

338
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 5: that that transpired. And just to be able to clear

339
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 5: the room was something that I'm thankful for, just to

340
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 5: be able to have a voice.

341
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's it's a it's a two way street, right,

342
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 4: I mean, that's a coachy that I mean, Ron Miles

343
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 4: and Gus Bradley, they've talked about they got to do

344
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 4: their part to put you and everybody else on defense

345
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,240
Speaker 4: in the best situation possible. How much respect do you

346
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 4: have for those guys to have the flexibility in order

347
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 4: to to listen and to learn and to grow and

348
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 4: hear from the players.

349
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 5: I mean, just to be in the workplace where you know,

350
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:37,680
Speaker 5: we can, you know, state how we feel and then

351
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 5: you know, you stand on that and then be able

352
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 5: to hear from somebody else's point of view. You know,

353
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 5: maybe down the line something happened and you didn't know

354
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 5: how you know, they really meant by you know, those actions,

355
00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 5: or they didn't know how I meant by you know,

356
00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:53,400
Speaker 5: whatever I said or whatever I did. But to just

357
00:15:53,720 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 5: you know, backtrack and just be in a respectful place

358
00:15:57,240 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 5: to where we can be on common ground. They goes

359
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 5: a long way, and it's something that I'm truly thankful for,

360
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 5: you know, once again, just being side by side and

361
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 5: trying to, you know, win some ball games.

362
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 3: Kenny, you're a veteran. Gone is his face on? Gone

363
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 3: is gil Moore? You look in that room. Now, you've

364
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 3: got some young guys around you, some big, young athletic

365
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 3: guys that we got out of the draft as a veteran.

366
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 3: Is this something a role that you take or does

367
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 3: it just kind of happen the way it happens. These

368
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 3: guys are going to be looking for some direction obviously

369
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 3: following you. You're a top one hundred player in the NFL,

370
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 3: so they see somebody who spent over five years in

371
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 3: the league. Is that a situation or a role that

372
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 3: you'll take?

373
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 5: Any role that I have on the team, you know,

374
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 5: every year is different. I'm gonna take that role and

375
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 5: I'm a treated with honor and respect just to be

376
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 5: in his seat, just to just to be in this

377
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,880
Speaker 5: you know, this type of blessing. You know, we got

378
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 5: Julian Brent's coming in. I was just talking talking to

379
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 5: him a week and a half ago about some other

380
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 5: stuff that you know, we had some stuff off the

381
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 5: field and just to get to know him, and obviously

382
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,680
Speaker 5: we drafted him. Is it's like, dang, that's correct.

383
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: That's crazy.

384
00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 5: We were just taking Kenny and it's uh, you know,

385
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 5: we got some mutual friends and you know, again to

386
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 5: know that he was from the East side of Indie

387
00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 5: and you know he was from here and you know,

388
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 5: just to have him in the room. I got a

389
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:15,560
Speaker 5: familiar face already, so uh, just to I just want

390
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,640
Speaker 5: to let the guys know, and you know, I talked

391
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,600
Speaker 5: to them every single day, like we got to do

392
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 5: this together. Like it's not me, you know, telling you

393
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,399
Speaker 5: guys what to do or how it's you know, gonna

394
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:28,280
Speaker 5: be done. But you know, I'm more solely by example

395
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 5: and we're gonna take charge like that. However, I do

396
00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:35,520
Speaker 5: gotta lead more, uh, in a in a bigger role,

397
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 5: and you know, just having the guys over to the house,

398
00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,399
Speaker 5: spending more time with them in the training room or

399
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,320
Speaker 5: before after practice, having that communication through test, you know,

400
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 5: on a daily basis, uh, and just getting everybody to

401
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,720
Speaker 5: to honestly just be more open and have more communication,

402
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,240
Speaker 5: you know, whether it's during the week or on the weekends,

403
00:17:56,240 --> 00:17:57,760
Speaker 5: just just getting to know each other because I know,

404
00:17:58,160 --> 00:17:59,679
Speaker 5: you know, when the bullets started flying and we on

405
00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 5: the field in this third down, we gotta have it

406
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 5: and we we we're depending on each other to be

407
00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:06,679
Speaker 5: in certain spots like I gotta I gotta know that

408
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,359
Speaker 5: you're gonna be there, and I gotta go harder for you.

409
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 5: So you know, the more time that we spend off

410
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 5: the field, the more time we spent on the field,

411
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 5: just just putting that time in, the better will be

412
00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,640
Speaker 5: when when things when, when our bats are against the wall.

413
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,000
Speaker 3: Colt fans, we have a great one here. One of

414
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 3: the best best guys, like I said earlier on on

415
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:25,920
Speaker 3: this roster is Kenny Moore. Lucky to have you. Let's love,

416
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,879
Speaker 3: appreciate you, love the young man watched him. It's a

417
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 3: guy we watched mature right in front of our eyes. Mate,

418
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 3: tATu to go from a young guy who's happy to

419
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,240
Speaker 3: be here and making plays to go to a locker

420
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 3: room leader, Like isn't these young young men around him?

421
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 3: I'm talking last year, even the year before, all looking

422
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 3: up to him and then glue Stefan Gilmore.

423
00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 4: That's right, without Gilmore, without facing Isaiah Rodgers in his situation,

424
00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:49,280
Speaker 4: Even before that, Kenny was a huge leader in the secondary,

425
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 4: but obviously even more so now with those departures and

426
00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,879
Speaker 4: all the rookies looking up to him, Dallas Flowers, Darryl

427
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 4: Baker Junior, all of these guys want to turn into

428
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 4: Kenny Moore and have the career that he's had to

429
00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:04,480
Speaker 4: this point. So he's gonna be a leader vocally, but

430
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,919
Speaker 4: also setting the example on the field on how to

431
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 4: conduct yourself like a pro for all these young guys.

432
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,320

00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,560
Speaker 3: be hearing some of that. I'll talk about that in

467
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:44,920
Speaker 3: a minute. First, I want to get to the Forum

468
00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:46,960
Speaker 3: Credit Union question of the weekend. Don't forget. We're brought

469
00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 3: to you by our friends at Meyer Meyer, the official

470
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,720
Speaker 3: super center of the Indianapolis Colts, proud sponsor of hundreds

471
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 3: of local sports teams across the Midwest. Let's go to

472
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 3: this Credit Union question and I'll talk from Boston Colt

473
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,439
Speaker 3: safety Rodney Thomas, who we spoke of earlier. He recorded

474
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 3: team high four interceptions in twenty twenty two as a

475
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 3: rook before Rodney, who was the last Colts rookie to

476
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,120
Speaker 3: record four picks in a season. That's gotta go back.

477
00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 3: I'm talking, you're going right around the odd, right, I

478
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 3: mean just a little north of the odd. You know

479
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,120
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. When I say odd right, I think

480
00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:19,639
Speaker 3: that's the right thing, isn't that two thousand?

481
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, it can't be Darius Butler because he wasn't a

482
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 4: rookie with the Colts. Right, I'm gonna say Marlon Jackson,

483
00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 4: no good call of safety. He was the safety though,

484
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,240
Speaker 4: But I'm just saying Melvin Bullet ooh.

485
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 3: Good one from Melvin.

486
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,480
