WEBVTT - Ep. 79: Training Camp Developments, Previewing Preseason Week 1 0:00:18.040 --> 0:00:19.680 Welcome into jags Am. Here. 0:00:19.800 --> 0:00:23.720 It is day thirteen, lucky number thirteen practice of training 0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:26.640 camp for the Jaguars. As it's beautiful day to be outside, 0:00:26.640 --> 0:00:29.200 so we took jags Am outside once again as we 0:00:29.360 --> 0:00:32.800 enjoy our third week and thirteenth day of practice. I'm 0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:36.040 ka Nannie Stevens here with Brian Sexton and John Oser. 0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:39.400 It's uppiced to be outside again. Enjoy the weather right. 0:00:39.520 --> 0:00:41.880 Well, after so many days inside with all that rain, 0:00:41.920 --> 0:00:43.000 it is nice to be outside. 0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:44.640 It's got kind of that humid feel. It's just a 0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:46.760 touch of it, but it's not bad. So let's go 0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:47.440 watch the football. 0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:49.760 Tis the season, Yes, football's right around the corner. We're 0:00:49.800 --> 0:00:51.920 just a little over forty eight hours out from actually 0:00:51.920 --> 0:00:55.240 seeing some preseason football and we're getting pretty excited for that. 0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:57.680 Let's get into our big things today. We have our 0:00:57.680 --> 0:00:59.640 first big things say, which is the depth chart that 0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:01.720 came out earlier this week because we have our first 0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:05.000 game of the season obviously on Saturday against the Chiefs. 0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:08.280 And Ryan Nielson, defensive coordinator, said, yeah, we put out 0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:10.399 a depth chart, but don't put a lot of stock 0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:11.640 into it. 0:01:11.800 --> 0:01:16.640 The depth chart is etched insand so it can change 0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:19.920 really really on. It could be gamed game playing time. 0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:23.200 I mean, it's we take this thing. We talked about this, 0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:25.920 it's a one day at a time. Every single day counts, 0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:29.280 every rep counts, doesn't matter who that rep is against. 0:01:29.280 --> 0:01:31.400 We're evaluating that player for what he's done on that 0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:35.240 particular rep on tape. That matters, you know, in every 0:01:35.319 --> 0:01:36.960 aspect of the program. 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:41.480 So that depth chart is in sand Bryan, obviously we 0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:43.720 know things are kind of fluids, specifically on the defensive 0:01:43.720 --> 0:01:45.360 side of the ball. Was there anything that jumped out 0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:46.880 to you on that depth chart? You think it's just 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:47.720 it is what it is. 0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:49.880 Well, I think you know who the starters are going 0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:50.480 to be, right. 0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:54.560 But Ryan is consistent and he has said since he 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:56.800 got here that the depth chart means nothing to him. 0:01:56.840 --> 0:02:01.880 He's about evaluating players in different positions, in different combinations 0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:04.200 with other guys. He wants to give everybody a really 0:02:04.240 --> 0:02:07.080 good look. So I smiled when he said it. He 0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:08.959 because it's a great line, right. I can think of 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:12.440 a handful of great coaches quotes in thirty years with 0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:14.639 this franchise, and that's on the list of top ten. 0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:17.200 I mean, just because the wry smile that he had 0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:21.160 when he delivered it perfectly. But no, I mean, you 0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:22.600 know who the starters are going to be, and we're 0:02:22.600 --> 0:02:24.840 talking about filling out the fifty three at this point, 0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:28.240 and he's steadfast in his belief that there are some 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:31.040 talented guys on this roster that just need a good, 0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.680 thorough evaluation. It's just another reason why I think he's 0:02:33.720 --> 0:02:37.799 a terrific coach. Yeah, it's exactly what you should say 0:02:38.240 --> 0:02:42.840 this time of year. I'm penciling Josh hinz Allen as 0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:49.519 a start or not. I think might start so, but yes, 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:55.480 in the secondary linebackers, they want the defensive line, for example, 0:02:55.720 --> 0:02:58.560 to be an eight person rotation. Well, go ahead and 0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:02.000 keep telling them that it's that there's no depth chart. 0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:05.880 Keep the ninth and tenth guy working hard, believing in it. 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:09.720 Why not? I mean, we get it. So it's fine 0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:11.280 if he says that, fair enough. 0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:15.280 Our second big thing today is BTJ Day Bryan Thomas Junior, 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:18.880 the rookie wide receiver drafted out of LSU. We've seen 0:03:18.919 --> 0:03:21.160 some flashes from him. I think yesterday was probably his 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.480 best day of camp. Caught a couple good balls from 0:03:23.520 --> 0:03:25.480 Trevor Lawrence and he talked a little bit to the 0:03:25.560 --> 0:03:27.720 media after practice about what it means to him to 0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:29.560 be able to play different roles on this team. 0:03:30.919 --> 0:03:34.000 Very real, just having him being able to play all 0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:36.680 the three positions and out to play inside and just 0:03:37.000 --> 0:03:40.280 do all they move, They move you around, try to 0:03:41.120 --> 0:03:43.240 get the best look for you, get the best matchup 0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:46.080 for you. So I would say it's very challenging, but 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:48.120 just coming out here and doing it each and every day, 0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:48.640 you'll get better. 0:03:48.760 --> 0:03:49.200 You get better. 0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:53.960 Obviously he's gonna have some rookie moments kind of learning 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:56.720 as things go along. Christian Kirk in that wide receiver 0:03:56.840 --> 0:03:59.720 room a great veteran presence for him. John What can 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:02.040 we expect out of Brian Thomas Junior right away? Obviously 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:04.000 we know he's a great deep threat, but he's learning 0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:06.440 other aspects and we're seeing other aspects of his game. 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:07.800 Yeah, right away. 0:04:08.920 --> 0:04:10.600 I don't know how much you'll see in the preseason 0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:12.280 because that can be sort of catch his catch can 0:04:13.600 --> 0:04:16.440 What I want to see early is maybe what we 0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:20.640 can't see makes any sense his impact. I think coordinators 0:04:20.680 --> 0:04:23.080 are going to know he's there. I think coordinators are 0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:24.800 going to have to account for him in the red 0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:27.800 zone and deep so I have no idea what his 0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:30.360 stats will be this season, but I think he's a 0:04:30.480 --> 0:04:35.480 legitimate part of a four person with Gabe Davis, Christian Kirk, 0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:40.440 Evan Ingram, and Brian Thomas Jr. I think he matters 0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:43.120 in that equation, so the defensive coordinators will have to 0:04:43.200 --> 0:04:45.720 account for him. I think if that's true, over the 0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:48.640 course of time this season, he will get his numbers 0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:52.400 in the If you're asking exactly what you're looking for, 0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:55.600 I think three or four times in the first nine 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:58.279 or ten games you want him to stretch the field 0:04:58.360 --> 0:05:00.719 and make a play where, oh, well, now we flip 0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:05.359 the field. Now this team's facing first and ten at 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:07.200 the forty instead of first and tent their own twenty. 0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:09.720 If he makes that kind of impact, Brian, I think 0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:11.960 the last half the season he can really come on 0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:13.720 once he has chemistry at travel. 0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:16.279 You're talking like the play he made over Ronald Darby 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:19.200 yesterday down the sideline where he snatched. 0:05:18.839 --> 0:05:21.200 The ball once every few games to give you the 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:25.840 real yards. And when coordinators see that, they're gonna have 0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:27.360 to account for it, which is going to make the 0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:29.800 offense function in a way that I'm not sure if 0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:32.120 functioned last year without two guys who can stretch it 0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:33.119 in Davis and Thomas. 0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:35.520 In that play, which was all over the internet yesterday, 0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:39.479 you can see the measurables right the height, the speed, 0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:43.080 and the length and just the freakish athletic ability to 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:44.960 be able to take a ball that you can't quite 0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:47.640 control and control it and then keep running full speed. 0:05:47.680 --> 0:05:48.200 He's got all that. 0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:50.600 I've watched him really closely during camp in the way 0:05:50.640 --> 0:05:53.200 that the Jaguars use him, and I have felt since 0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:56.520 they drafted him that his speed and size it's going 0:05:56.600 --> 0:05:59.679 to make a safety be on their heels as opposed 0:05:59.720 --> 0:06:02.960 to running towards the line of scrimmage. And I think 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:05.600 in his impact, as John said, he's going to make 0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:08.760 some plays, his impact is that he is going to 0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:12.160 open things up in that box and give Trevor much 0:06:12.240 --> 0:06:14.360 more to work with in terms of the running game 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:17.960 room for Evan Ingram Underneath, I think Brian Thomas is 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.000 a combination of all the things that you need to 0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:24.719 have that downfield passing attack and benefit underneath. 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:27.080 And Brian, what you just talked about something fans might miss, 0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:28.360 but it matters very much. 0:06:28.440 --> 0:06:30.560 Yeah. Absolutely, I think it's exciting to kind of see 0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:32.320 the role he'll have and then as it becomes more 0:06:32.360 --> 0:06:34.240 of an explosive plays or whatever it is, as the 0:06:34.279 --> 0:06:36.600 season goes along, excited to see it myself, say able 0:06:36.680 --> 0:06:39.280 us Here on jags Am. We are live at training camp. 0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:41.480 Practice coming up are a little bit more of a 0:06:41.560 --> 0:06:58.520 preview of game time. Jack's Am brought to you by 0:06:58.640 --> 0:07:01.440 Field's Auto Group Jacksonville Premier Luxury Auto Group. 0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:03.080 You can go to Fieldsauto dot com. 0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:08.200 Try everything exactly the same to prepare the player for 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:09.440 Sunday to that Hey. 0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:10.080 It's not different. 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:14.640 Hey, just trust your fundamentals and technique, understand the scheme, 0:07:14.760 --> 0:07:15.520 and then play hard. 0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:18.000 As simple as that. 0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:20.440 Guy's got to keep your routine, keep everything the same. 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:23.600 We know football players like their routines, athletes of any sort. 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:26.400 So Ryan Neilson said he's trying to do that as 0:07:26.480 --> 0:07:28.880 much practice the way you play and keep everything in 0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:31.400 the same kind of timeline so that you know when 0:07:31.440 --> 0:07:33.320 some of these younger players, these rookies get out in 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:36.000 their first game ever in the NFL, that they're not 0:07:36.200 --> 0:07:37.440 kind of overwhelmed by. 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:42.000 That routine builds consistency, and it's consistency that separates good 0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:45.440 from great, and you could just see the desire on 0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:48.720 Ryan's part to get consistency from all of those young 0:07:48.800 --> 0:07:50.120 players on the defensive side. 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:52.040 Yeah, I think on Saturday you want to see those 0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:55.240 guys play fast. I mean it's to me, I'm not 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.760 as concerned on Saturday with the defense. It gives up 0:07:58.760 --> 0:08:02.560 a touchdown early. It is Patrick Mahomes. But you like 0:08:02.680 --> 0:08:06.880 to see them playing the way they have during practice, 0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:13.400 which is with an urgency and with a suddenness that 0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:16.240 gives you the impression that they get the defense and 0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:18.560 they know how it's functioning. So you'd like to see 0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:20.720 some speed and confidence out of that unit, and I 0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:21.920 think you will because you've seen it. 0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:22.640 In practice so far. 0:08:22.800 --> 0:08:24.440 And we haven't talked a lot about this, but to 0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:30.440 talk to people around here, this defense is much it's 0:08:30.560 --> 0:08:32.360 less complex. I don't want to say simple because that 0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:35.400 makes it seem like it's too simple. But he has 0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:38.440 made this something that these guys can adapt to very 0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:41.240 quickly and as John said, be able to play fast 0:08:41.360 --> 0:08:45.599 and simplifying this defense, you can just see it. 0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:47.280 You can see how confident these guys are. 0:08:47.720 --> 0:08:49.240 A lot has changed. We haven't seen them play a 0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:52.520 football game six seven months. Obviously, the whole defensive side 0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:55.360 of the Ball's new coaching staff, Trevon Walker, talked a 0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:57.400 little bit about this last week, how his role is 0:08:57.480 --> 0:08:59.240 going to change, and he's really excited about the new 0:08:59.280 --> 0:08:59.959 role he's going to play. 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:02.280 I feel like it fits me great. 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:05.439 We're playing straight forward and I feel like with me 0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:06.920 playing with my hand in the dirt, I feel a 0:09:06.960 --> 0:09:09.240 lot more explosive and I feel like I can just 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:09.880 play ball now. 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:12.160 You can miss any part of dropping into coverage. 0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:15.839 Oh I mean no, no, not at all. But I 0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:17.800 mean the more you can do, the more the better. 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:19.320 So whatever my teams need. 0:09:21.080 --> 0:09:22.959 John, I think it's obvious he's not gonna miss dropping 0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:24.160 back into coverage very much. 0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:26.120 But is this Is this a better suit for his talents? 0:09:26.200 --> 0:09:26.439 You think? 0:09:26.600 --> 0:09:29.080 Yeah, it remains to be seen. We haven't seen everything 0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:32.160 they're gonna do with him. I always go back to 0:09:32.280 --> 0:09:34.760 last year when Steelers coach Mike tom And called him 0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:41.360 a wrecking ball. And Tomlin typically isn't given to praising 0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:46.079 opponents unless it's warranted, and a Trayvon can be a 0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:47.839 wrecking ball. He was at the end of last season. 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:51.000 It feels like this defense will put him in more 0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:54.920 situations where when you're a rookie. For example, for him, 0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:59.319 he's he's obviously usually the most dominant, strongest person in 0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:02.000 his matchup. As a rookie, it's hard to make that 0:10:02.320 --> 0:10:03.920 stand out all the time because you're not sure how 0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:06.280 to use that ability. I think in year three, in 0:10:06.400 --> 0:10:09.760 this scheme, I think you're gonna see wrecking ball Trayvon 0:10:10.080 --> 0:10:12.800 very consistently. So yeah, I think it does fit him well. 0:10:12.840 --> 0:10:15.080 They're gonna they're gonna be able to move him inside, right, 0:10:15.160 --> 0:10:17.240 they talked about doing that some last year, but with 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:20.400 Eric Armstead, now you can do some tricky things where 0:10:20.400 --> 0:10:22.240 you get him and what they call that three technique 0:10:22.240 --> 0:10:25.000 the inside shoulder of the guard and able to get 0:10:25.080 --> 0:10:28.079 up the field where he's gonna have mismatches. So it's 0:10:28.160 --> 0:10:30.920 projection on my part, but I think this does fit 0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:33.800 what he does really really well. And I think it's 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:37.280 important that people they don't see him as being the 0:10:37.600 --> 0:10:40.880 other Josh Han talent Josh is that he's that edge 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:44.719 rusher who can bend and get. That's not what Trayvon does. 0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:48.319 Trayvon destroys, I mean, he tears things apart on his 0:10:48.480 --> 0:10:53.240 way to the quarterback. So in that sense, this scheme 0:10:53.320 --> 0:10:54.600 and the way that they're gonna use with his hand 0:10:54.640 --> 0:10:57.200 on the ground allows him to get off the ball 0:10:57.360 --> 0:10:59.200 with more power and that's his game. 0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:01.920 And to me, the most fascinating thing about this team 0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:05.319 that we didn't see last year is the combination of 0:11:05.440 --> 0:11:11.720 heinz Allen, but particularly Trayvon, Devon Hamilton and Eric Armstead healthy, 0:11:11.840 --> 0:11:16.680 three guys who can dominate and disrupt. Get those three 0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:19.640 guys healthy playing together. I'm not leaving Hines down out 0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:23.440 of it, but that you know, three wrecking balls. Really 0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.559 we haven't seen that. We haven't even seen Armstate in 0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:30.559 it yet. That's the X factor to me defensively that 0:11:30.840 --> 0:11:33.000 I get, they're playing fast, I get all that, but 0:11:33.240 --> 0:11:36.720 if those three guys are as dominant as it feels 0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:38.839 like they could be, then all of a sudden, you 0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:39.800 can be a dominant defense. 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:40.880 And they have such great length. 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:44.640 I mean, Eric Armstead is bigger, if it's possible, than Trayvon, 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:46.520 and so you've got two guys with that kind of 0:11:46.640 --> 0:11:49.160 length and disruptiveness. You can put them next to each 0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:51.360 other on opposite side to the line. You create a 0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:53.200 lot of problems for offensive coordinators. 0:11:53.400 --> 0:11:55.400 It's always about the trenches on the other side of 0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:58.520 the football. The offensive line is something we talked about 0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:01.280 endlessly last season, still going to be a focus this season. 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:04.000 Obviously a new center in Mitch Morris. He spoke a 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:06.840 little bit last week as well about what it's going 0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:09.440 to take to kind of get that consistency of playing 0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:11.199 with people and dealing with injuries as well on the 0:12:11.240 --> 0:12:12.720 offensive line, just. 0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:16.480 The resilience of the group. You know, we had a 0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:19.080 few guys go down, as is the nature of training camp, 0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:23.439 and you know, guys stepped in then Bat and Eye 0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:28.000 worked when they had to. And the great thing about 0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:29.719 that is and when you go off the field, you 0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:33.400 have this huge kind of relax feel because you know 0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:35.120 you put your work in and then we can make 0:12:35.200 --> 0:12:38.160 the adjustments and feel free to run and fly around 0:12:38.200 --> 0:12:40.319 make mistakes because we're just trying to hear to get better, 0:12:40.400 --> 0:12:42.120 and I think this group does. 0:12:42.000 --> 0:12:42.880 A very good job of that. 0:12:44.360 --> 0:12:46.559 As Morise mentioned, a couple of injuries we saw on 0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:49.680 the offensive line last week. Anton Harrison in the concussion 0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:51.880 protocol but is out practicing today, which is the first 0:12:51.920 --> 0:12:54.760 we've seen him kind of participating in practice. Brian, what 0:12:55.440 --> 0:12:57.200 what should we expect to see from the offensive line. 0:12:57.280 --> 0:12:58.319 Is it going to be the full starting line. 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:00.839 No, it's not a Doug said two hours ago in 0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:04.520 his news conference that we wouldn't see Ezra Cleveland this week, 0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:07.319 nor would we see Anton Harrison. Good news is Cam 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:10.800 Robinson will be back out there, and obviously we'll see 0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:14.200 Mitch Brandon Sheriff, you know, Walker Little probably over at 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:14.840 right tackle. 0:13:15.160 --> 0:13:17.120 So no, you won't see the whole thing. 0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:20.720 And it's gonna require some resiliency, which was Mitch's code 0:13:20.760 --> 0:13:25.199 word there. It's gonna require guys to communicate and when 0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:28.920 if Chris Jones plays right, be prepared. 0:13:29.280 --> 0:13:31.439 Yeah. Yeah, I'm not looking past the Chiefs game. 0:13:31.480 --> 0:13:34.439 But I think from Doug's perspective, he puts a lot 0:13:34.520 --> 0:13:37.760 of value that I think maybe fans when they're looking at, Okay, 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:40.240 how's it going to prepare, he puts an awful lot 0:13:40.280 --> 0:13:42.679 of value on those joint practices next week. I think 0:13:42.720 --> 0:13:45.960 he would love nothing more than to have full offensive line, Ezra, 0:13:46.200 --> 0:13:49.600 Anton and the three for two days of practice where 0:13:49.640 --> 0:13:51.679 they know what they want to do against the Bucks, 0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:54.400 hopefully get through that, and then have them available the 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:57.400 last preseason game. Just from listening to Doug over the 0:13:57.480 --> 0:14:00.839 last couple of years. I think his approaches. If I 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:03.199 can get those five working in those two practices in 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:07.679 that last game, then that'll be as close to cohesion 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:10.480 all that as he can get. I think he'll give 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:12.960 up this first preseason game if he can get those 0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:13.800 three key. 0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:17.680 Workpoints, get those quality reps next week. Stay with us 0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:19.800 here on JAGSA. I'm coming up after the break. We'll 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:21.480 go over a little bit more about that Chiefs game, 0:14:21.520 --> 0:14:23.560 what players were expecting to have good games. 0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:35.000 Jaguars fans, you're reminded. 0:14:34.720 --> 0:14:38.240 To the Firehouse Subs San Marco location at nineteen forty 0:14:38.280 --> 0:14:41.920 nine San Marco Boulevard in Jacksonville tomorrow from three to 0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:44.360 four for a very special event. You can meet current 0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:47.840 Jaguars players, Jackson Deville, the Roar cheerleaders. 0:14:47.280 --> 0:14:47.800 Will be there. 0:14:48.000 --> 0:14:50.080 It's all the kick off the thirtieth year of Jaguars 0:14:50.120 --> 0:14:53.360 football and Firehouse Subs in Jacksonville. We hope to see there. 0:14:57.320 --> 0:15:00.360 Got a lot of fans here in attendance. Today rainy, 0:15:00.440 --> 0:15:02.760 it's not too too hot so in the shad. It's 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:05.360 nice day to take in practice and as we get 0:15:05.480 --> 0:15:08.080 very close to game time, things are getting very exciting. 0:15:08.120 --> 0:15:10.280 We're gonna see real football. It's been six seven months 0:15:10.320 --> 0:15:12.560 at this point, so I know it's preseason football, but 0:15:12.560 --> 0:15:14.640 it's still football for us, And obviously against the Super 0:15:14.680 --> 0:15:17.280 Bowl champs, you can learn a lot from that, especially 0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:20.240 because we've heard Andy Reid similar and Doug Peterson he'll 0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:23.040 play his starters for about a quarter and a half 0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:29.280 as well. So you're gonna get the best, right So 0:15:29.320 --> 0:15:31.000 whoever you probably more that we don't know about you. 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:34.160 Whoever gets the chance to line up against Travis Kelsey, 0:15:34.600 --> 0:15:37.400 Chris Jones. I mean, those are really valuable reps. 0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:41.880 Yeah, it's about as exciting as a preseason game gets, 0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:45.920 so kind of that exciting, but it's so fit. It's 0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:47.800 still better to have the champs in here than not 0:15:48.200 --> 0:15:48.600 fair enough? 0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:50.360 All Right, what are some players You're like? Yeah, who 0:15:50.400 --> 0:15:51.040 are you looking at? 0:15:51.440 --> 0:15:53.320 Who you chose you treat? Prince is the guy that 0:15:53.600 --> 0:15:56.240 you know. He's a guy of the three young corners, 0:15:56.280 --> 0:15:59.800 and they have three that are making moves in camp, right, 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:03.800 Krek Brown, Christian Braswell and Trey Prince. He's the guy 0:16:03.880 --> 0:16:07.000 that I think has the most upside, and so on 0:16:07.440 --> 0:16:09.960 Saturday night he will have the opportunity because the Chiefs 0:16:09.960 --> 0:16:12.040 send the ball down the field. It doesn't matter who 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.160 the quarterback is. And there are some receivers, you know, 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:18.240 Kadarius Tony might be playing. When he's out on the field. 0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:21.160 That's a guy with elite speed, So I think he'll 0:16:21.200 --> 0:16:24.120 have a great test. I don't expect him to be 0:16:24.200 --> 0:16:27.160 a guy that breaks the starting lineup, but he has 0:16:27.320 --> 0:16:31.000 everything that you need mentally, physically, all of that. I 0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:35.080 think he's the one with the greatest opportunity. He might 0:16:35.160 --> 0:16:37.520 be the air apparent to go over to that other side. 0:16:37.680 --> 0:16:39.960 Right Ronald Darby is a stopgap guy on a short 0:16:40.080 --> 0:16:42.400 term contract. I think Prince, the way that I have 0:16:42.480 --> 0:16:44.000 seen him play, I think they might have found a 0:16:44.080 --> 0:16:47.960 guy who has the ability to become a starter in 0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:49.120 his second third season. 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:51.720 Here, Yeah, my guy's tank Bigsby. 0:16:52.920 --> 0:16:55.440 Originally he will, he will, he might so stick to 0:16:55.520 --> 0:17:00.200 the format. I think he will get ample opportunity need 0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:06.920 tomorrow you know, on Saturday. I'm sorry, because he's the 0:17:06.960 --> 0:17:09.160 guy who needs reps. I think this is an opportunity 0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:11.439 to get him real reps. That was the one thing 0:17:11.440 --> 0:17:14.240 they couldn't quite do last season. They couldn't quite have 0:17:14.400 --> 0:17:16.679 the confidence in him to get him in there when 0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:17.200 he needed it. 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:20.879 Well, this is the first opportunity that, hey, go at it, 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:24.920 show you what you got. He won't. He won't leave 0:17:24.960 --> 0:17:25.679 me hanging this year. 0:17:26.040 --> 0:17:28.440 And you know, I liked Tank a lot and I 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:31.320 talked him up a lot last training camp, and the 0:17:31.400 --> 0:17:34.280 circumstances just never played out. You had a couple fumbles early, 0:17:34.640 --> 0:17:38.239 and it felt to me like the coaches they liked 0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:40.960 the idea of him, they liked him, they liked his talent, 0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:46.520 and yet on third and two there never quite came 0:17:46.600 --> 0:17:50.960 the situation where is it better to have Tank or Travis. Well, 0:17:50.960 --> 0:17:52.800 the games were always so tight that it was like, 0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:55.720 we got to go with Travis because he's our best guy. 0:17:56.280 --> 0:17:58.960 So I think he'll get much more opportunity to do 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:02.400 that this year, and he might. I hate to say 0:18:02.400 --> 0:18:04.080 it because fans give me grief out all the time 0:18:04.280 --> 0:18:08.560 about Tank Bigsby, but I still think that he might 0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:15.400 be the guy to give them production, reliability, the physicality 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:18.720 that's needed to withstand the wear and tear. I still 0:18:18.800 --> 0:18:21.000 think he might be okay as the other option to 0:18:21.000 --> 0:18:23.760 Travis ETN. And if he doesn't do it this year, 0:18:24.640 --> 0:18:26.639 I won't be talking about him next year During training 0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:28.760 camp but I still think he's got that shot. 0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:29.800 I think he is the guy. 0:18:30.680 --> 0:18:35.280 Listen, Travis etn is a guy that can break big 0:18:35.440 --> 0:18:37.200 plays right, But he's not the guy that I have 0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:39.960 competence in on third down and one why Well because 0:18:40.000 --> 0:18:41.320 last year they didn't get it done right. 0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:43.120 They were that wouldn't Travis Well. 0:18:42.920 --> 0:18:44.680 I'm not blaming it at all on him, but I 0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:47.320 don't think he's that power back, and I think you 0:18:47.440 --> 0:18:48.240 need a power. 0:18:48.040 --> 0:18:50.000 Back in this game. So I do think he's a 0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:52.240 nice compliment and I expect that he will this year. 0:18:52.760 --> 0:18:55.040 I think we will see a lot different running game 0:18:55.119 --> 0:18:57.119 because of the line, and I'm hoping that shows up 0:18:57.200 --> 0:18:59.320 right away in this game. So I'm for sure with 0:18:59.440 --> 0:19:01.520 you on that and hope let tank. Now he's been 0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:03.400 here for a year, he'll have a little bit trust 0:19:03.440 --> 0:19:05.600 with how things work. I think they have to trust him. 0:19:05.600 --> 0:19:07.760 They don't have an option anymore. Obviously we saw last 0:19:07.840 --> 0:19:09.800 year it didn't work if they don't, so they definitely 0:19:09.840 --> 0:19:11.600 need to trust him going forward. I'm gonna go with 0:19:11.640 --> 0:19:13.440
