1
00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: It's it's an exciting day, at least for me personally.

2
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 2: I know it's exciting for the guys in the locker

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:07,880
Speaker 2: room as well to get back on the field and

4
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 2: play real football. Kind of talked about it yesterday in

5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 2: regards to just the timing. The time that these guys

6
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 2: will be on the field will change every day throughout

7
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 2: the season. I'll try to, you know, let you guys

8
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 2: know how long practice will be. Today's ninety minutes. Hopefully

9
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 2: we get some good work in.

10
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: One thing. I will say it's a little different than when.

11
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 2: I played because the acclamation period, and I do think

12
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:34,280
Speaker 2: it's good as far as player safety is concerned, you know,

13
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 2: not just jumping right in the pads. And hopefully you

14
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 2: know here in seven days we'll be in full pads.

15
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 2: So excited about that opportunity as well. Today just another

16
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,879
Speaker 2: chance for these guys to display their athleticism and what

17
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:45,919
Speaker 2: they learn in the classroom.

18
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: So we'll see how that goes. Yeah, about seven days,

19
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: I think.

20
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 3: How is your love for the game grown change as

21
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:56,640
Speaker 3: your transition for player to coach.

22
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 2: I've always I've always loved the game like the love

23
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 2: it are you doing to me? It's it's always a

24
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 2: ten out of ten, and you know, as a coach,

25
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 2: you just get another opportunity to help guys develop it,

26
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:08,400
Speaker 2: to come to players that they want to do.

27
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:10,279
Speaker 1: Period.

28
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 3: I think a lot of coaches around the league see

29
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 3: tackling the thing has become more difficult. How do you

30
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:18,039
Speaker 3: get guys ready to tackle and callas their bodies for

31
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 3: that one?

32
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:19,840
Speaker 1: They can't do it as much as they used to.

33
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 2: We'll do We'll do some live tackling once we put

34
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:25,279
Speaker 2: the bats on and seeing that, like in the games,

35
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 2: you're gonna get a lot of live actions, so we'll

36
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: be better tacklers at the end of the season than

37
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 2: we were at the beginning.

38
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: You guys have historically been a great tackling team.

39
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:33,440
Speaker 3: I mean, I think you can go back to your

40
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 3: your playing Daysman, do you have to change much in

41
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 3: that depart Yeah.

42
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 1: Drills are in that specific area. You're tweaking anything there

43
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: as far as your preparation.

44
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,839
Speaker 2: Really and once again, like we've done, we've done things

45
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 2: at a high level for a long period of time.

46
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: It's not like you have to change everything. Uh.

47
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 2: I'm a huge believer of fundamentals and tackling.

48
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 4: Historically, you guys have also started in the red zone

49
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 4: just today tomorrow.

50
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: Is that where you're focus.

51
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 2: So we'll start out in the field the early downs,

52
00:01:58,040 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: and then we'll work on wins.

53
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: Zone sounds yesterday.

54
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,200
Speaker 2: Any long term, no concern at all. I mean he's

55
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,679
Speaker 2: on the active roster still. When he's ready to go,

56
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 2: he'll be out here.

57
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 1: Just start camp is a little sorry, it's a little

58
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 1: different as we talked about.

59
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 3: Are there any of other changes we'll notice out here

60
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 3: that you'll implement this year?

61
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 1: That's been I think the first thing.

62
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 2: You know, I know it's it's small, but just the

63
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 2: music during practice and that helps the time go by

64
00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 2: as well, gets the guys excited. It's the guys pumped.

65
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 2: And look, it's all about competition what I talked about.

66
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: So you'll see more competitive periods as practice as the

67
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 2: offseason kids continues to grow.

68
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: I don't.

69
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 2: So that's one of those prizes you give the guys.

70
00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,200
Speaker 2: He offices the award winners. Let those guys pick the

71
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 2: music and they love it. They love it the.

72
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: Off season award winners.

73
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 2: Do we have, Yeah, we do. We'll get that list

74
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: to your states. You got on that where we'll get

75
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 2: that listed.

76
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,000
Speaker 1: What are you most excited about what fans most excited

77
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:53,440
Speaker 1: about you.

78
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: I think that I think I'm most excited just about

79
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,839
Speaker 2: the excitement that the players show on a day after

80
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 2: day basis, like they're coming in there with with great

81
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 2: energy and you know, look as the season continues to progress,

82
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:06,800
Speaker 2: like we'll get better each and every week. And this

83
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 2: is really the foundation right now during training camp that

84
00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 2: we put together, so I got a lot of players

85
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 2: and once again, those guys are excited to come out

86
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 2: here and work and to compete.

87
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: And that's my message I'm.

88
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 4: Going to be preaching to today as they get.

89
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: Ready for you.

90
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, just you know, look, those guys have been playing

91
00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 2: football since there were little kids.

92
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: It's no different.

93
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 2: You know, obviously the game is a little bit faster,

94
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 2: but at the same time, it's football. It's football, and

95
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 2: go out there and have fun. And I stressed to

96
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 2: him last night, Look, make sure you're talking to the

97
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 2: veteran players. They know what to expect Antonio Gibson to

98
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: be back out there when the season rulls around. How

99
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 2: long he'll be back out there relatively, So, I mean,

100
00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 2: it's more of a procedural thing that we had to

101
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 2: go through.

102
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: But at the same time, when he's ready to go,

103
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 1: he'll be out there.

104
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 4: With a talky talkie starting on the active peu pee.

105
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,200
Speaker 4: What player do you think you could maybe bump up

106
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 4: and see not see more opportunity, but would fit in

107
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 4: that bucket you know where you might project.

108
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 2: You know, our defense is so versatile, though there are

109
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 2: times where I look at a guy like Marte, like

110
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 2: is Marte safety? Is the a linebacker? Like, we don't know,

111
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: but we'll see once we put the pads on. But

112
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 2: that's a guy that I'm excited to see out there.

113
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: Pats, you have a structure for how you want to

114
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 1: work Drake, you know into the mix.

115
00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:18,560
Speaker 3: Uh?

116
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: Pre planned or are you guys kind of letting? Oh,

117
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: let's pre planned.

118
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 2: Every rep is pre planned until we get into like

119
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 2: the live action type of stuff where it's unscripted. But look,

120
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 2: he'll have his opportunities with so will Joe sols that

121
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 2: and obviously Jacoby. Uh, he's our starter at this point,

122
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 2: so he'll have ample opportunity to go out there and

123
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 2: prove them.

124
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 1: So like today or is it through weeks or is

125
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: it through months?

126
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 3: In terms of Drake's the plan for Drake, is it

127
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 3: like today's plan or is.

128
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: It a week.

129
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 2: It's a day by day thing, and we meet every morning,

130
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: we meet every night.

131
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 1: To kind of script that stuff out. Spend most of

132
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,159
Speaker 1: your time and what will your individually be.

133
00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, to me, look, I'm a floater, and once again, uh,

134
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 2: it's about fundamentals like moving a body is moving a

135
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 2: by whether we're talking about an offensive lineman or a

136
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:05,560
Speaker 2: defensive linement. Same thing, linebackers, you know, block destruction, those

137
00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 2: those things carry over. It's all about fundamentals. Look, I

138
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 2: was probably spent most of my time on the defensive side,

139
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 2: but at the same time, I will definitely make my way.

140
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:16,359
Speaker 3: Over when there have been penalties or turnovers in the

141
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 3: past the training camp and you've seen guys run laps

142
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 3: and it's been one of the distinctions and enjoying practices.

143
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: We're gonna keep that going.

144
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 2: We're gonna keep that going because penalties, turnovers, you know,

145
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 2: all those things killed, they're gonna take off.

146
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 3: Waking up, did it feel a little different here or

147
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 3: what's it been like?

148
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: You know, it felt the same. I kind of felt

149
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:35,800
Speaker 1: the same.

150
00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 2: But now that I'm out here on the field, like

151
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 2: I can feel the excitement kind of building up that's

152
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 2: why I just hit a peloton, hit a peloton.

153
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: Riders just kind of bring it back down a little bit. Oh,

154
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 1: that's tough. I'm gonna go with Olivia Olivia, Yeah, she's great.

155
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 1: Do you expect and Davon god Jo's participates. Yeah, I

156
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: expect all these guys to participate. What was impart to

157
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,719
Speaker 1: Disney era? Sorry? What this is in part thing called

158
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: the Patriots. In this new era from the Patriots, the.

159
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,159
Speaker 2: Most important thing is just to compete and to go

160
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 2: out here and have fun, and winning is fun. So

161
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:10,279
Speaker 2: it's all about competition and it's all about getting better

162
00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 2: each and every days.

163
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 3: It seems like a Taypwon Gorton was one of the

164
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 3: top ex receivers during the spring.

165
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: Why did you feel he was a good fit there

166
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: and how do you feel about the competition if that's fine?

167
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 2: Look, Taekwan is one of those guys where you know

168
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 2: physically he has all the tools.

169
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: Obviously we all know that he can run. Uh now,

170
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: he just has to put it all together.

171
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 2: And I feel very confident with our offensive coordinator and

172
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 2: our receiver coaches to get him to the point.

173
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: Where he can make an impact for our team.

174
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 4: You talked yesterday about the vineyard and just taking some

175
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 4: time off before obviously that probably helps you get yourself

176
00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 4: ready for camp. Did you read anything or is there

177
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 4: anything that you did to maybe better yourself, you know,

178
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 4: to feel.

179
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:47,920
Speaker 1: Like you know, I love to read.

180
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 2: You know what I've been doing though, I signed up

181
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 2: for Masterclass and that's a pretty good platform.

182
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: And then Farnum Street. Like Farnum Street, I don't know

183
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 1: if you guys know about yeah shame, yeah shan.

184
00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 2: You know that website has a lot of good our

185
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 2: because I'm a huge believer in that you can learn.

186
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: From people in different industries all the time. Like I

187
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: don't always have to learn from another football coach. I

188
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 1: don't always have to learn from the military. It could

189
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 1: be a teacher, elementary school teacher.

190
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 2: There are principles that carry over to now adulthood and professional.

191
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 1: Sports into your schedule.

192
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 3: And you talked yesterday about retention of what you learned

193
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 3: in meetings and you know, moving from nighttime to morning. Sorry,

194
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,240
Speaker 3: those lessons you learn outside of football, Does that factor

195
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,640
Speaker 3: into the way you've scheduled your meetings.

196
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,000
Speaker 2: And a little bit as far as scheduling, But I

197
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 2: would also say, like this is a relationship business as

198
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,680
Speaker 2: much as you want to think it's just about you know,

199
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 2: going on the field doing what it's said on.

200
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: The paper, And it is a relationship business as well.

201
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 2: And I always talk about, you know, you got you

202
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 2: have to show the players and coaches warmth, warmths before competence,

203
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 2: and I think that's a huge piece. So when you

204
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 2: talk about how do you motivate people, how do you know,

205
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 2: help people become discipline players? Though all of those principles

206
00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 2: kind of show up in different industries. Well, I didn't

207
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 2: signed I signed up for the whole service, so they're

208
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,679

Speaker 1: Around, you know, So which ones have you right now?

Speaker 2: that one.

214
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 1: Good. Anyone you expect to be limited today, you know,

215
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: we'll just have to wait and see.

216
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 2: You know, I had a meeting with the coaches this morning,

217
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,080
Speaker 2: like it's your responsibility as a position coach to know

218
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 2: your room better than anyone else. And you know, they

219
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 2: have the freedom and they see a guy struggling to

220
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 2: pull them out.

221
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: I think that's important.

222
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 3: Earlier in the spring, we asked you if any player

223
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,439
Speaker 3: is surprised, and you mentioned key On White with a

224
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 3: spring of the rear view now or any other players

225
00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 3: appearing to take that second year job or some sort

226
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 3: of jump this offseason.
