Jason Garrett, it was not Jason Garrett. 0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:52.960 There were a lot of fake names out there, and 0:01:53.040 --> 0:01:55.680 Garrett was like a I photoed into a bunch of 0:01:55.720 --> 0:01:57.760 them and yeah, no, not not Jason. 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:00.960 It was cool.

Yeah, I uh, y'all 0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:06.760 will laugh at this. 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:12.360 The president of the university was who I introduced to 0:02:12.440 --> 0:02:14.720 walk up on stage. So he's the president of the 0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:19.680 University of North Texas. And as I was introducing him, 0:02:19.720 --> 0:02:21.400 I said, all right, I'd like to welcome to the 0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:26.480 stage doctor President Keller, or I said doctor Harrison Keller. 0:02:27.120 --> 0:02:31.160 And as I said it, I started say President of 0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:34.959 the United and then I paused and was and everybody 0:02:35.000 --> 0:02:38.320 started laughing. The whole room like started chuckling, and I 0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:41.400 was like, dang it. I was like, that sucks. I 0:02:41.440 --> 0:02:43.079 was like, I can't get that one back. So I 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:44.280 finished it. 0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:47.600 I said, universe the president of the University of North. 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:49.480 Texas, and I said, look, I'm just trying to give 0:02:49.480 --> 0:02:50.040 you a promotion. 0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:53.440 And I was just making a joke, but he followed 0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:53.720 it up. 0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:56.040 He's great, he does a great job, and honestly, I 0:02:57.280 --> 0:03:00.639 admire what he has done with the university. Up he goes, 0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:03.600 I'm not sure people would classify that as a promotion, 0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:04.560 and everybody. 0:03:04.320 --> 0:03:11.000 Was like throwing singers. I love it. But yeah, other 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:12.680 than that, it was really good. That was a lot 0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:15.280 of fun. That's good man, Thanks for asking.

I was about to ask that one. 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:32.760 Yeah, I wad yeah, just the recD seven seven still 0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:33.320 make the kids. 0:03:36.040 --> 0:03:39.480 Nobody knows, but yeah, that would that would be the one. 0:03:39.640 --> 0:03:43.080 And I also I flubbed a word like in the 0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:43.800 very open. 0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:47.440 It wasn't like major or anything. I just yeah, but 0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:49.640 I would go back and look at it. You're right, though, 0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:51.760 I am.

Every time it's. 0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:49.080 Been on that that machine back there since when Beemer 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:50.720 probably twenty sixteen. 0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:54.320 When the Star was built. Probably it's probably been on 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:56.400 there from the beginning of the students. It's a slide 0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:59.640 whistle every time. It's that. It's my my mind. Okay. 0:04:59.720 --> 0:05:01.760 So news and notes first and foremost is keep in 0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:05.000 mind the Cowboys are finally back on a regular schedule, 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:06.360 at least for the next two weeks. 0:05:07.480 --> 0:05:09.960 Thank you Jesus. Yeah what that feels like. But here 0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:17.400 we are so that for a second, geta thanking Jesus. 0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:20.640 Now we need to click that. Yeah, we need to 0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:21.000 clip that. 0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:24.560 So Cowboys are back on the practice field today Wednesday. 0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:27.640 They'll get back to it in preparation for the Minnesota Vikings. 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:30.960 Practice will be through Saturday morning. Final injury report will 0:05:31.000 --> 0:05:33.520 be issued on Friday, which means the first injury. 0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:34.760 Report will be issued today. 0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:37.480 We will get a good look this afternoon around three 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:39.800 or four o'clock. As far as the status of several 0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:43.599 people that we're keeping an eye on, most notably Seedy Lambs. 0:05:43.600 --> 0:05:43.880 See. 0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.520 Lamb is still working to clear his benchmarks so that 0:05:46.560 --> 0:05:50.960 he can hopefully clear and concussion protocol before the Minnesota 0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:53.919 Vikings come to town. Where it has it as of 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:57.000 yesterday as well, he's still trending in the right direction. 0:05:57.480 --> 0:05:59.919 Cowboys are optimistic but of course, as we all know, 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:03.240 and I'll say it again, cowboys have no say in 0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:05.960 the matter when it comes to a concussion protocol, right. So, 0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:09.640 but good news is the Citie Lamb. They've had several 0:06:09.640 --> 0:06:12.120 conversations with him. He's speaking with the medical staff. He's 0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:14.800 he's going through what he needs to go through, and 0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:17.279 he's on the right track. So hopefully he remains on 0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:20.359 the right track. Jadavion Clowney is expected to return to 0:06:20.400 --> 0:06:26.080 practice today, expected to play on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. Yeah, 0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:29.920 so barn any setbacks, and the same applies to Tyler 0:06:29.960 --> 0:06:32.359 Guidon as well. So Jadeveon Clowney and Tyler Goyten are 0:06:32.400 --> 0:06:35.160 in the same boat in that they are both expected 0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:38.359 to return to action this Sunday night against the Vikings 0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:41.400 as long as there are no setbacks in practice this 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:43.040 week for either of those guys. 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:48.360 So that's great news. Is well. Trayvon Diggs, that's. 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:51.280 The other headliner we will see because Trayvon Diggs was 0:06:51.320 --> 0:06:55.520 a game time decision against Detroit. He did travel, but 0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:58.040 sounds as if they want to see more from him 0:06:58.040 --> 0:07:01.000 in practice before they activated him to the fifty three 0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:03.720 man roster. Now his practice window has already been activated, 0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:06.040 so he's seven days into that twenty one day window 0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:08.640 as we have this conversation, so only fourteen more days 0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:11.280 before they either have to activate him or he ends 0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:13.600 his season on IR Well. 0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:17.280 In Jerry's last available availability before the Detroit game, I 0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:20.320 felt like it was pretty clear that Trayvon was going 0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:22.040 to play in Detroit. 0:07:22.120 --> 0:07:24.640 What was the setback for that? Do we know? 0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.520 Honestly, I don't think there was a setback per se, 0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:29.040 and I will just. 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:33.840 This is a talking cowboy Cowboys Network. 0:07:34.440 --> 0:07:39.760 The playoffs have started, sir, you didn't make the playoff 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:42.960 fantasy both leagues, Wow, look. 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:44.080 At you playoffs. 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:47.600 But no, I wouldn't use the words way because some 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:49.960 fans will run with the words setback and assume that 0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:52.280 that's what happened physically, But that's not the case. It's 0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:56.280 simply based upon conversations I've had, based upon hearing Shoddy 0:07:56.720 --> 0:07:59.760 Shoty's take on it, hearing Jerry and Stevens's take on it. 0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:02.080 They simply want to see more from him, So it 0:08:02.080 --> 0:08:04.040 sounds like he was close. He was right there, and 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:05.920 they almost pulled the trigger on it, but they were like, 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.080 you know what, let's give it a few more days, 0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:11.640 which is fine because he literally returned to practice last 0:08:11.640 --> 0:08:13.520 week ahead of that Detroit Nce game, which was a 0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:16.800 Thursday game, so many by. You know, if he doesn't 0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:20.320 return after this many by against the Vikings, then I'm 0:08:20.320 --> 0:08:22.440 going to start kind of flashing a red light on 0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:24.800 that and saying, you know, what's really going on there. 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:27.120 So we'll see. But the Andrew report. 0:08:26.840 --> 0:08:29.600 Today will tell quite a bit. As far as all 0:08:29.640 --> 0:08:31.520 of those gentlemen I mentioned. 0:08:31.320 --> 0:08:34.600 What would you guys be expecting from Trayvon Diggs in 0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:37.720 the Vikings game? Like particularly, I just want to know 0:08:37.760 --> 0:08:39.120 what you guys are thinking, Like would it be a 0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:42.560 limited snapcount situation or vocational? 0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:45.679 I think it's gonna be rotational no matter what happens 0:08:45.720 --> 0:08:48.840 coming back. But it also depends on the health of 0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:52.840 Klin Carson. To a certain extent, Carson's earned some more snaps, 0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:59.360 Trayvon Diggs hasn't necessarily earned more snaps. Has his contract 0:08:59.440 --> 0:09:02.280 has That's kind of where I'm at is at this 0:09:02.440 --> 0:09:06.040 point in time. Has his play warranted him being a 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:06.920 full time starter? 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.520 Probably not. I would see a rotation. 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:11.560 He'll be the starter, He'll be the guy that goes 0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:14.080 out there, but I don't think he's going to play 0:09:14.120 --> 0:09:15.920 as much as he has in the past. 0:09:16.800 --> 0:09:18.240 Is that what you want to see or is that 0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:19.360 just what you're expecting? 0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:22.599 What I would want to see, I'll say it with 0:09:22.679 --> 0:09:24.120 my chest. What I would want to see is more 0:09:24.160 --> 0:09:27.800 Klein Carson. So I'm not saying that's going to happen. 0:09:27.840 --> 0:09:30.240 I just think there's more of a rotation than what 0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:30.880 it has been. 0:09:30.800 --> 0:09:32.079 In the past. It's fair. 0:09:32.160 --> 0:09:34.439 Yeah, that's what I think will happen, is more of 0:09:34.480 --> 0:09:37.240 a rotation. I would like to see more Kalin Carson. 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:38.160 No, I think you're right. 0:09:38.200 --> 0:09:41.440 I mean because we talked about ramping up guys back 0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:45.160 from you know, having missed time all the time, so 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:48.520 this applies. Yeah, that situation. Trevon Diggs, like Isaiah said, 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:51.720 say what do we now? Six calendar weeks? Yep, yeah, 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:56.120 six calendar weeks, five games removed, Yeah, five games removed. Yeah, 0:09:56.720 --> 0:09:58.360 you're not just going to throw him out there and 0:09:58.400 --> 0:10:01.240 assume he's going to give you one of the defensive 0:10:01.240 --> 0:10:04.840 snap count. In addition to trying to make sure that 0:10:04.880 --> 0:10:07.760 you oppose this question to ebra Flus, I believe last 0:10:07.840 --> 0:10:09.600 week and I got another question for you this week. 0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:13.160 Here with flu tomorrow, I asked, tomorrow. 0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:16.800 Yeah, it is tomorrow, I asked, what's the the challenge 0:10:16.840 --> 0:10:20.679 of having a guy like Treylon Diggs come back all pro? 0:10:21.160 --> 0:10:23.640 The contract tied to it, the expectations tied to it. 0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:27.920 Cowboys need to see more from him this season with 0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:31.839 without accidentally curbing the progress of a guy like Savone Revel, 0:10:32.040 --> 0:10:35.200 Kaylyn Carson, because these guys need their reps as well. Well, 0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:39.080 that's why I want to develop right positional coaches and 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:42.000 just developing young guys as a whole. Okay, well, you 0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:45.520 gotta be you gotta be wise in how you do that. 0:10:45.520 --> 0:10:48.199 That rep count. So the ramp up gives you kind 0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:50.560 of an out to make sure that not only Trayvon 0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:53.720 Diggs is progressing in a way that doesn't force a setback, 0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:56.040 but also still allows you to get Sivone Revel and 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:58.560 Kaitln Carson on the field with hopefully a healthy amount 0:10:58.600 --> 0:10:59.839 of snaps because those guys have. 0:10:59.800 --> 0:11:00.560 Earned it as well. 0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:06.240 I find it hard to believe that Trayvon Diggs is 0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:09.760 in the future cards for this franchise. That's just my 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:16.000 guts this off season contract. But that's that's what it 0:11:16.040 --> 0:11:18.080 looks like. I'm just reading the tea leaves is all 0:11:18.120 --> 0:11:23.080 it is is. Contract wise, relationship wise, availability wise, all 0:11:23.160 --> 0:11:26.120 of those signs are pointing in wonder and so if 0:11:26.120 --> 0:11:29.679 that's the case, I'm not that Kayln Carson has been 0:11:29.679 --> 0:11:31.240 a world beater at the cornerback position. 0:11:31.280 --> 0:11:32.760 That's not all. That's not what I'm saying here. I 0:11:32.760 --> 0:11:33.320 see the chat. 0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:36.080 They're like, I've seen enough of Kaylen Carson's to be fair, 0:11:36.200 --> 0:11:39.760 not really. You've seen him banged up, playing through injury, 0:11:39.880 --> 0:11:42.440 and when he was finally healthy, actually played pretty decent 0:11:42.640 --> 0:11:45.199 for a guy who hasn't had a ton of experience, and. 0:11:45.160 --> 0:11:47.400 He's on your roster next year. There's no doubt about 0:11:47.400 --> 0:11:49.320 it to be here. So I want to see it. 0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:50.120 I just want to see it. 0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:52.240 I'm not saying it's going to be a world beater 0:11:52.360 --> 0:11:55.199 type of performance and he's the corner of the future, 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:57.040 But I also want to know whether or not a 0:11:57.280 --> 0:11:59.760 one of these first two or two first round picks 0:11:59.840 --> 0:12:02.640 are going to be needed for a cornerback, and I 0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:06.000 need to know if that's a possibility. Opposite of deron plan, 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:08.600 So let's play what we know, what we're going to have, 0:12:08.679 --> 0:12:11.200 and at some point then those cards will fall where 0:12:11.200 --> 0:12:11.680 they may. 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.480 And for not trying to sound naive. 0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:16.480 But if Trayvon Diggs comes back and he looks like 0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:18.960 the Trayvon Diggs of old and he's a ball hawk 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:21.720 and fine all of that, Like, is that something that 0:12:21.760 --> 0:12:23.320 you would want to see more of? 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:24.960 In that case? Are you giving him more steps than 0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:28.080 you would to Kalyn comes back and he's balling, Yeah, 0:12:28.400 --> 0:12:29.480 of course I would love. 0:12:29.480 --> 0:12:31.000 Even though he may he may not be in your 0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:32.840 future cards going into next office. 0:12:32.880 --> 0:12:33.640 He comes back and. 0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:36.640 He balls out for four weeks, which I I just 0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:39.440 don't necessarily see happening, of course, right, but if he does, 0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:41.920 there's no indication that gives you that sign be in. 0:12:41.880 --> 0:12:44.120 Your cards for the future. So I'm cool with it. 0:12:44.200 --> 0:12:48.120 Try out both guys, have both guys take significant nap 0:12:48.200 --> 0:12:49.840 counts and see what's going on. 0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:53.400 Someone is being unusually quiet in terms of the Trayvon 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:54.160 Diggs conversation. 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:56.480 Pathically, I agree with Isaiah. 0:12:56.080 --> 0:12:58.040 And I think we need to hear what is one 0:12:58.400 --> 0:12:59.679 koy Isaiah standback. 0:13:00.160 --> 0:13:02.599 Just just just want to make sure that we're in 0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:04.559 the same page. Yeah, we're talking about the highest paid 0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:05.960 defensive player on your on your roster. 0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:11.160 Yeah, currently, Yes, yes, we are trying out. That's what 0:13:11.200 --> 0:13:16.600 I'm saying. I just I just stated what I believe. 0:13:16.640 --> 0:13:18.080 I just want to make sure that I'm clear. 0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:21.280 I don't want to assume, Mama, you should always tell 0:13:21.360 --> 0:13:22.959 me that an assumer is not a good thing. 0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:25.319 Can't say that on there. But but I want to 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:26.679 make sure that we're talking about the same person. 0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:26.959 Right. 0:13:28.679 --> 0:13:33.200 How many weeks? Six six? How many games? Four left? 0:13:33.280 --> 0:13:35.000 Five hundred and fifty eight thousand dollars per game? Right? 0:13:36.720 --> 0:13:38.560 Why why are you watching his pocket? I'm not watching 0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:42.800 it public information. I urge you on a pocket? So 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:44.920 watching me? And how long it takes me to make 0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:48.520 five hundred fifty eight thousand dollars? How long? Two shows? 0:13:48.559 --> 0:13:51.400 A lot longer than one week? One and a half? 0:13:51.520 --> 0:13:58.400 Did you say two shows? Derek? That's taught clearly, I 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:07.920 need to read negotiation. There are there are we We 0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:10.120 just got to wait and see. I am with you. 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:12.800 I already said that. I said this earlier in the week. 0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:14.400 I don't foresee him being on the roster next year 0:14:14.800 --> 0:14:16.840 unless he just comes back and intercepts everything that comes 0:14:16.880 --> 0:14:17.320 his direction. 0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:19.640 I don't forgee it happening. If he comes out and 0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:21.440 balls out and is a lockdown corner. 0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:25.880 Even then, even then, I don't see him staying. Even then, 0:14:25.920 --> 0:14:28.560 I don't see him saying a team. I think it's 0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:31.880 a heating. I don't believe this is my opinion. I 0:14:31.880 --> 0:14:36.560 don't believe that he fits the characteristics of this defense. 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:39.920 Not even talking about physical attributes. I'm talking about character. 0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:44.120 I'm talking about the team. I don't believe that he 0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:44.560 fits it. 0:14:45.160 --> 0:14:49.400 Characteristics, but impact character in all I don't know the 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:50.240 man personally like that. 0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:51.480 I don't know him like that. So I mean, I'm 0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:52.680 speaking upon what I've seen. 0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:55.160 I'm speaking upon how i've seen him move, you know, 0:14:55.200 --> 0:14:57.800 whether it be training camp, whether it be around the building, whether. 0:14:57.600 --> 0:15:01.560 It be So that's how I perceive it. Okay, I 0:15:01.560 --> 0:15:05.080 could be completely wrong. That's just my opinion. I don't 0:15:05.120 --> 0:15:06.560 see that fitting here. 0:15:06.640 --> 0:15:10.320 So if he comes back in balls out awesome, Hopefully 0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.320 it helps the case and the Cowboys potentially you know, 0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:15.000 very slim chance making the playoffs. But ultimately, if he 0:15:15.000 --> 0:15:16.680 does that, he helps his case in terms of where 0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:18.600 he can go, because I think that they would use 0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:19.320 that as trade. 0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:22.680 I think the bigger question to your point is, all right, 0:15:22.720 --> 0:15:24.400 so we're talking to macro when it comes to trivia 0:15:24.440 --> 0:15:26.760 on Tiggy, let's just let's just make it the micro 0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:29.360 At the end of the day, two things have to 0:15:29.400 --> 0:15:31.520 occur for Treyvon Diggs to remain in the future for 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:34.800 the Dallas Cowboys. One is he has to return and 0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:38.800 play lights out, Yeah, to show the ball hawk. It 0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:41.400 has to remind them of what is contract, what is 0:15:41.680 --> 0:15:44.320 right exactly. The other thing is is it capable. I'm 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:46.160 going to say, you can't have one without the other. 0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:49.040 He could come back and ball out. If this other 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:51.360 piece doesn't doesn't fit, it's still not going to work. 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:54.520 And that other piece is can he and Matt Eberflus 0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:59.000 get along because and I'm not saying that. I'm not 0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:01.320 saying that they're beefing, Okay, what I'm saying is that 0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:06.800 there's a clear rift between the two that's not being 0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:08.800 it's being managed well. 0:16:09.400 --> 0:16:12.320 But there's this air there. Yeah, there's an air, and 0:16:12.360 --> 0:16:13.640 you can tell that there's an air. 0:16:13.680 --> 0:16:15.840 And if anyone's paying attention, that's not just us walking 0:16:15.840 --> 0:16:16.480 around the building. 0:16:16.600 --> 0:16:18.240 There are fans who've picked up on it. 0:16:18.720 --> 0:16:22.280 And all the fans are getting are ebra Flus's videos 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:25.640 on Dallas Cowboys dot Com. 0:16:24.920 --> 0:16:28.480 Come I'm still he's locked in. I'm locked I'm sorry. 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:32.640 I'm sorry, bro, just thinking he didn't even leave the 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:33.160 line of script. 0:16:33.280 --> 0:16:38.960 I'm just I'm. 0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:38.680 A line judge. 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:41.120 But no, seriously, I think both of those things has 0:16:41.160 --> 0:16:42.600 to happen. Like he has to come back and ball 0:16:42.640 --> 0:16:44.920 out and remind everyone what he's capable of, including the 0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:47.760 front office. But he and ebra Flus again, I'm not 0:16:47.800 --> 0:16:50.360 saying that they're beefing, but it's clear that he and 0:16:50.400 --> 0:16:53.080 nebra Flus are not buddy buddy, you know what I mean. 0:16:53.200 --> 0:16:56.680 So ebra Flus has to be convinced that he's boughty 0:16:56.720 --> 0:16:58.440 and then at the same time, the Cowboys need to 0:16:58.480 --> 0:17:01.000 be convinced that eber Flus the DC of the future. 0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.360 So I mean that they're coming SA but it's even 0:17:03.440 --> 0:17:06.960 beyond that. I agree. Let's add on top of that, 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:09.600 go back to training camp, but go back to the 0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:12.800 off season. Yes, yeah, Like this isn't just a football 0:17:12.800 --> 0:17:16.400 thing right now, and when you've been bubbling since the summer, since. 0:17:16.240 --> 0:17:18.680 The summer, right so, when you give somebody a contract, 0:17:18.720 --> 0:17:19.840 this is a former player talking. 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:22.760 When you give somebody a big boy. 0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:25.320 Contract, the largest contract on that side of the ball, 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:28.359 the big draws that you're paying them, yes, for what 0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:30.359 they've shown you that they can do, but you're also 0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:32.679 paying them for what they can do in the future, 0:17:32.720 --> 0:17:36.800 in the future and the culture that they can impose 0:17:36.880 --> 0:17:41.080 upon everybody else around them. And when you pay somebody 0:17:41.119 --> 0:17:44.040 at the top, there's a responsibility comes with that. It's 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:47.160 just it's like a quarterback. You pay a quarterback, he's responsible, 0:17:47.359 --> 0:17:49.800 whether he wants to or not, for his actions and 0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:51.760 how he impacts everybody else around him. 0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:54.000 It's just is what it is. It's no different when 0:17:54.000 --> 0:17:54.280 you have. 0:17:54.240 --> 0:17:56.320 The highest paycheck on one side of the ball on defense, 0:17:56.600 --> 0:17:57.440 that comes with it. 0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:00.919 If you can't give a quick example to this, how 0:18:01.000 --> 0:18:04.159 much did we talk about Ceedee Lamb and his ability 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:08.679 to impact positively the locker room and the guys around 0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:10.119 him as a leader in the room. 0:18:10.160 --> 0:18:12.000 Prior to the contract, we talked about it, said you 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:13.240 need to see it, you need to see it, you 0:18:13.280 --> 0:18:14.920 need to see it. Finally you saw it. 0:18:14.960 --> 0:18:18.080 Click, then it gets paid and it's taking a step forward. 0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:20.240 He is a leader in the room, Dak. Of course, 0:18:20.280 --> 0:18:22.800 he's a quarterback. That's going to happen regardless. Look at 0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:27.159 the other top quarterback or top contracts. 0:18:27.440 --> 0:18:29.639 But in the building here it's fine. 0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:33.000 But look at the other top contracts on the roster 0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:36.520 right now, Dak Prescott, Ceedee lamb Quinn and Williams, Tyler Smith, 0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:39.520 to Ron Bland, Terrence Steele, oh so Igizua, Kenny Clark, 0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:42.040 Jake Ferguson. Would you say all of those guys are 0:18:42.160 --> 0:18:43.400 leaders at their position? 0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:44.920 Yes, yes, absolute percent. 0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:48.080 One guy that's a name in there is Trayvon Diggs. 0:18:48.359 --> 0:18:50.800
