00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 1: welcome and I appreciate you doing this. Thank you, And

7
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: it's no problem. Okay, it's uh tell me, uh you are?

8
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: But if it's a transition or not. I always thought

9
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: you were a nose tackle coming in. You're not really

10
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,360
Speaker 1: playing nose in this scheme or maybe you are? Are

11
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: you all over the front or tell me about your

12
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: role and I do you like it? Do you like

13
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 1: the way you're fitting in? Uh? Yeah, I definitely like

14
00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: how offensive defense. You know what I'm saying, uh, is

15
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 1: that they're grounding away everything. Didn't even wherever they needed

16
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: to be at all players they needed to play left

17
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,279
Speaker 1: end any situation. I'll be able to play it. But uh,

18
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: I mean, just wherever they tell me I gotta go.

19
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: I just try to do that job as the best

20
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 1: of my ability, you know what I mean. As I

21
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: was preparing for this you know, I'm always fascinated by

22
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 1: defensive lineman, especially those tackles. Defensive lineman, whatever the role,

23
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:19,280
Speaker 1: your role is to occupy, get off, make plays. But

24
00:01:19,319 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: you gotta be in the nitty gritty. What does it

25
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 1: take to play this position? Tell me about because it's brutal.

26
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: People who watch football see wide receivers, you guys running around,

27
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: but you have a brutal position. Tell me about. I

28
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: just I mean, I mean one word that comes to mind,

29
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:35,560
Speaker 1: and it just takes grit, you know what I'm saying.

30
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 1: You gotta want to win a fight. You gotta want

31
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: to be in there. You can't be down there and

32
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: not want to be in there and not want to

33
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 1: play the run and not want to do these things.

34
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,680
Speaker 1: But then you don't get blown out of there. So

35
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: you gotta be built for You gotta be made a

36
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 1: little different, you know what I'm saying everybody, and not

37
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: made to be intrenched. So, um, you gotta just you,

38
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: I mean kind of just be a tough guy. You know,

39
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: just know what your job is. It's just not the

40
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: staying through the down. Is there ever a time third

41
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: quarter you're getting up for the fiftieth time that game?

42
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: Some Lineman's on top of your saying, Man, I wish

43
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 1: I was a wide receiver. Definitely not. Man, I love

44
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 1: what I do. You know what I'm saying, I wouldn't

45
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 1: be here. That's how I look at I wouldn't be

46
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 1: here if I wasn't doing this. So uh, I mean

47
00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,440
Speaker 1: I love it. I embrace it, and you know what

48
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: I mean. I just go out there, try to get

49
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: the job done. And no point during the game, while

50
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: like I want to play different. Why are you good at?

51
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 1: What is it about you that makes you good at?

52
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: You've been playing a long time? First round pick? Why

53
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: are you fit for this? Um? I mean, I think

54
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 1: it takes it just that, it takes a whole bunch

55
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: of things. I mean, you got to kind of know

56
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,639
Speaker 1: about the position. I kind of know what the job is,

57
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 1: I know, with the aspect of you and all those things,

58
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: and then you just go out there and within those

59
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: guidelines and try to, you know, just disrupt the offense

60
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:43,919
Speaker 1: or do whatever you can. It just needs to play.

61
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: I played on the inside. Final question because it fascinates me.

62
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: Have you ever seen you know, not naming names? Have

63
00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 1: you ever seen a guy who's playing at you that

64
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: you're like, man, this guy ain't gonna make it. This

65
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: guy is not put on this earth to be a

66
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: those tackle, but he's here. Especially when you get to

67
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 1: the league, I'm sure there's some guys who just can't

68
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,079
Speaker 1: do it. I say, once you get to the league,

69
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: I mean everybody's kind of at that level where everybody's

70
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 1: playing good. If you made it here, obviously they've seen

71
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 1: something in you for you to build this level. And

72
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 1: everybody got different skill sets. So I can't look at

73
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 1: one guy and be like, oh, you're not You're not

74
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,679
Speaker 1: made fence because he might not be like the best

75
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 1: runs stopper, but I mean he might get up the

76
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 1: field real well, or he might do something really good

77
00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 1: in a different position. I might be missing that, you

78
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: know what I mean. So, I mean everybody kind of

79
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 1: got their own little room at the end, like their

80
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,240
Speaker 1: own kind of body type, the kind of get off,

81
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: they own get off kind of whatever the defense is,

82
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: you know, they're kind of working within that. But I mean,

83
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: whatever that steam is, whatever that's go technique, if that's

84
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 1: based two gap, whatever it may be like that, that

85
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: players within that steam. So tell me about this run defense.

86
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 1: There's been so much talk about it, it has struggled

87
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 1: here in the last couple of years. What is different

88
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: about you guys, I know the past of the past.

89
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,840
Speaker 1: What is different about this front that gives you confidence

90
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: that this is going to be a unit that can

91
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: stop the run? I know it's the emphasis. I just

92
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 1: think that, you know, but all stars, that is trust,

93
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 1: you know. I mean, you gotta trusted your teammate's gonna

94
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: be in their gap, and they gotta trust that you're

95
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: gonna be in your gap. And y'all just gotta kind

96
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: of work work together, you know. I mean we're all

97
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 1: building that that, you know, that relationship where we know

98
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: how each other plays, and we know how they fit

99
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: on these things and this and that, so we could

100
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: play well off each other. That's gonna go well to

101
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: the run game. Not even gaps open and stuff like

102
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: that for people to hit in preecess for big yards. So, um,

103
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 1: that's where it all starts at, and that's what we

104
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 1: want to start at. So everybody just we just want

105
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,400
Speaker 1: to be fundamentally sound in the run game, you know

106
00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: what I mean, you're getting the way they in those

107
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: fastest situations. Kind of a different topic, but I want

108
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 1: to get to it. Texas to the SEC. It's a

109
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 1: big move, um. But you know, I mean, I'm glad

110
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 1: that they, you know, trying to trying to better themselves.

111
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 1: Get I mean, I'm not gonna say better because there's

112
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,159
Speaker 1: some great competition in the Big twelve too, so but

113
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, whatever they see over there in

114
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:52,679
Speaker 1: SEC that they want to make that move for, they

115
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: have their own reasons. But I mean, I'll be watching,

116
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,359
Speaker 1: you know, and I'll always be room for Texas. I

117
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,720
Speaker 1: got you. We're in the middle of a work week

118
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: for the these guys, so explain to fans. We're not

119
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: gonna be too long with Malcolm today. So I gotta

120
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:07,400
Speaker 1: get to this question. Two thousand and seventeen AFC Championship game,

121
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: you're playing the Jackson. Did you ever think that it

122
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: was over at game point? Malcolm? Because this team had you,

123
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: did they not? Uh? Man? The one the one thing

124
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 1: I've always learned a boy playing in the NFL is

125
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 1: to never give up, you know what I mean. And

126
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,000
Speaker 1: that's that's something that's gonna steal in me. I've learned it.

127
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,480
Speaker 1: Ere Like there's so many different times in my career.

128
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 1: So even whatever the scoreboard may say, there's always that

129
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: chance until ever read zero zero. So I think in

130
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: assistance that we were in there where everybody had, we

131
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: didn't lose no hope throughout the whole game because you know,

132
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: I mean, everybody just knew, you know, I mean, just

133
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: never give up, Just keep on trying, just keep on

134
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,240
Speaker 1: playing the next play, the next this, the next st

135
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 1: not to you know, sit there in festor on the

136
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 1: pass and what the scoreboard might say not not the

137
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: biggest supposed to plays that they had that game, But

138
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 1: I mean, just keep on working towards the next player,

139
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, just well, we'll sit down and

140
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: see where is that when it says zero zero. Okay,

141
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: this may be different from the perspective where you were playing.

142
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: But I gotta ask this because Fan and want to know,

143
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 1: have you talked to him about it and was miles down?

144
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,560
Speaker 1: Has it never come up between the guys. I think

145
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 1: since I've been here, well we've all been about the now,

146
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 1: in the future of the of the organization, you know

147
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 1: what I mean. And uh, I mean we kind of

148
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,160
Speaker 1: bring up those moments because you know, you want to

149
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 1: feel those moments again that they had here getting to

150
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 1: the scampionship. But like I said, we all just we

151
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: kind of just looking towards the future and we all

152
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: just try helping you to get better at this point.

153
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: I mean, it might have came up, but we didn't

154
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:29,800

Speaker 1: like a lot of people as a mistakes, you know

204
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. It was like I've been around some

205
00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: people like I could. One person was with my cousin,

206
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: you know, growing up. He was real good at football,

207
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,120
Speaker 1: and there's some things happened in his life. You know,

208
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: things happen to everybody's lives. But you know, I mean

209
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: when people make mistakes, you know, everybody could go through

210
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 1: and make that same mistake, or they could go through

211
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: and learn from those same mistakes. Him. I think I

212
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: learned from those mistakes and I just try to, you know,

213
00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,200
Speaker 1: get as far as I could, because a lot of

214
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 1: people have talent that didn't kind of you know, reaching

215
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 1: the peak of their talent, or that caught up with

216
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 1: some other thing out there. So you know, I just

217
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: that's a real big thing on me, just trying to

218
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: learn from other's mistakes so I don't end up, you know,

219
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 1: in the same condition or whatever it may do. Fantastic answer, Malcolm,
