1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:02,480
Speaker 1: Stands out about Tim Patrick and why is it important

2
00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:04,440
Speaker 1: to kind of have different body types struck and receiver

3
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:04,720
Speaker 1: a room.

4
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that the thing that stood out for

5
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:11,760
Speaker 2: us of Tim was a guy that had really gone

6
00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 2: through a ton and throughout his career to come in

7
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 2: last year and step up for the lines in a

8
00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 2: big way. You know, had about four hundred and some

9
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:23,600
Speaker 2: yards receiving four touchdowns. But it's what he does without

10
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 2: the ball that is is really cool to watch. His

11
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:32,479
Speaker 2: sense of urgency, physicality, a guy that you know, it

12
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 2: kind of is the word tough that comes to mind.

13
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,640
Speaker 2: It's pretty obvious and both mentally and physically. So that

14
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 2: was kind of what went into that decision was getting another,

15
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 2: you know, a bigger type body guy that can give

16
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 2: us quality snaps and a guy that can you know,

17
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 2: he's physically he's played a lot of football in the NFL,

18
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: He's had a lot of success, and he brings another

19
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:59,640
Speaker 2: you know, veteran maturity coming from a successful organization and

20
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 2: and had has had a lot of personal perseverance in

21
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 2: the last few years to get where he's at.

22
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 1: There's a lot of young guys in the receiver room.

23
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:08,920
Speaker 1: How much value can he bring just from that veteran presidency.

24
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

25
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:09,759
Speaker 4: Huge.

26
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,240
Speaker 2: I mean how much that he's been able to see

27
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,839
Speaker 2: throughout his time in the NFL, you know, coming from

28
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: working with those guys with Amara and JMO and those

29
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 2: guys in Detroit, and what the stories to tell me

30
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 2: about Amen Roan, how we practiced and how he did

31
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 2: things was pretty.

32
00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 3: Cool to hear.

33
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 2: And if some of that can continue to rub off

34
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 2: on our guys, that's only a positive, it's only a

35
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 2: good thing.

36
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 3: So it's great to have Tim with us.

37
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 5: There is planning for him to play a lot on special.

38
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 3: Teams or no on special teams. I'd have to talk

39
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:41,039
Speaker 3: to heat.

40
00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 2: I don't know if that's necessarily why he's that's not

41
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 2: why he's here, Yeah, yeah, yeah, but he may have

42
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: to back up a couple of positions or something like

43
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 2: that down.

44
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 4: To fifty three.

45
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: Now, just in terms of the roster, how do you

46
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 1: feel about the overall shape of it and.

47
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 3: Just where you guys are at as a team.

48
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: You feel solid about it. It's We've talked about this

49
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 2: a few times. It's it's always being evaluated and and

50
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: you know the way that you're continuing to find ways

51
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,959
Speaker 2: to create an edge or fill a hole or or upgrade.

52
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 2: I mean that those things do occur throughout. But you know,

53
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 2: proud of the guys that made it for sure, and

54
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 2: really happy to have some of the guys on practice

55
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 2: squad that we're able to keep because you know, we

56
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 2: all know that show team is such a huge important

57
00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 2: part of this thing.

58
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 3: So h you know, please with it. We have a

59
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 3: lot of work to do.

60
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 5: How would you evaluate the defensive line, the decision to

61
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 5: keep a couple of extra edges, and the story of

62
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 5: Danny and Bijik.

63
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, so the ability that right with both Agba and

64
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: Smoot give us the ability to reduce a little bit,

65
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 2: so you can go a little heavier on the edge

66
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: because those guys can reduce down and play a little

67
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 2: bit of you know, four I a little three technique

68
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 2: if you need so. And obviously Trayvon does that as well,

69
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 2: So that's kind of the reason for a little bit

70
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 2: heavier on the edge.

71
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 3: And then bj And and Straggau both earned it.

72
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 2: I mean they earned it throughout their performances since they

73
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 2: got here, continuing to improve, and then once especially once

74
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 2: we got the pads on, you were able to see

75
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 2: both of those guys specifically Bjy show up and in

76
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 2: the pressures and in the relentless play and the way

77
00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 2: that he kind of goes about it. So you know,

78
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 2: please with them in two undrafted free agents make your

79
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 2: fifty three and you know we're gonna we're gonna.

80
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:32,079
Speaker 3: Need him at some point.

81
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,720
Speaker 2: But also they will do a phenomenal job giving our

82
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 2: offensive line a look every week because they're relentless, the

83
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 2: way they practice, the way they compete, all of that

84
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 2: kind of goes into it as well. Not yet, next Monday,

85
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 2: I believe Monday.

86
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a combination.

87
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 2: You know, they vote and you take that all into

88
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 2: consideration and you guys, you sit down with the staff

89
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 2: and decide, you know what it's the best for the team.

90
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 2: So we'll announce that we voted today. Well, I have

91
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 2: the data now to go look at and talk to

92
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 2: the staff about and we'll make that decision.

93
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,600
Speaker 3: We'll announce on Monday.

94
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: If you think back to kind of the early parts

95
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 1: of spring, where's the biggest growth from Trevor to this point.

96
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 2: I think, with the exception of today, you know, was

97
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:25,680
Speaker 2: taking care of the football. Like in the spring, there

98
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 2: was a little bit more maybe errant, maybe misses and

99
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,600
Speaker 2: a little bit more it was daily almost in some

100
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 2: ways where you're getting used to the scheme, you're getting

101
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 2: used to your footwork, you're getting used to new receivers.

102
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 3: And so it's not as clean. It's still not where

103
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,480
Speaker 3: it needs to be, which is the beautiful part. I mean,

104
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 3: it shouldn't be. We don't expect it to be that

105
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 3: way right now.

106
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 2: But for the most part, like just taking care of

107
00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 2: the football is a huge thing, and if we can

108
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 2: run the football more effectively, obviously create more turnovers defensively

109
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 2: and be able to take care of the football, you're

110
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 2: not beating yourself. And so I think from a ball

111
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 2: security standpoint, I've seen some growth. There is going to

112
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,600
Speaker 2: throw a pick here and there in practice, like it's

113
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 2: going to happen, but it hasn't been as much at

114
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 2: all since the.

115
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,160
Speaker 3: Spring coming in. Was that something that you were concerned

116
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 3: about just looking.

117
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,840
Speaker 2: At his film, It wasn't more that it would look

118
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,920
Speaker 2: like it was a guy that was, you know, at times,

119
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 2: trying to do too much. You know, like, man, the

120
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 2: run game's not really hitting here, and every throw becomes

121
00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 2: a little bit more magnified when when maybe you don't

122
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,480
Speaker 2: have balance and so I think it was a matter

123
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,560
Speaker 2: of you don't have to like every throw is not

124
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 2: going to make or break the game. Like we got

125
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 2: to take care of the football. We want to be

126
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 2: efficient inaccurate in the past game, but we have to

127
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:50,799
Speaker 2: know when to throw the thing away, knowing to maybe

128
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 2: eat it and have to take a sack, which we

129
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 2: never want to really do.

130
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 3: But it's better than giving them the ball. If you end.

131
00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 2: Every drive with a kick, usually you'll be okay. I mean,

132
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 2: obviously don't want too many of those three punts, but

133
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 2: we're the biggest theme for us has been not beating

134
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 2: ourselves because before we can really start to beat other teams,

135
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 2: we cannot beat ourselves.

136
00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 3: And that has been an issue here.

137
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,240
Speaker 5: That plan that you put together for Travis and getting

138
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,599
Speaker 5: them ready to go both sides and split into certain practices,

139
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 5: would you call it a success even if you take

140
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:25,720
Speaker 5: out you've taken out obviously to practice this.

141
00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 3: Because yeah, that was a bummer to not have them

142
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 3: for ime issue. What's it been ten days or so.

143
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 2: Maybe a little bit more so, that's obviously a bummer

144
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,119
Speaker 2: to lose that time because it was doing this for sure.

145
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 2: But I think from a scheduling standpoint, I do think

146
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,600
Speaker 2: that it's been a success. I mean, he's he still

147
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 2: wants more, which is good, but he's got also hone

148
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 2: in on the details and get back to that after

149
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 2: being away for ten days. So but I've I do

150
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,719
Speaker 2: believe it was a success. I think we'll have a

151
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 2: good aar about it after to really look at all, right,

152
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 2: was that the best plan?

153
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 3: How do we look at it for next offseason? And

154
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,799
Speaker 3: how does that look like for a next training camp.

155
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 2: Maybe now's not the time to have that, but that's

156
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 2: what we will do and kind of reevaluate how he

157
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 2: handles a game plan on both sides of the ball,

158
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 2: because so much of it's going to be training camp plays, right,

159
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 2: you want to go out and execute what you do

160
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: best in the first game because you don't have truly

161
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 2: any scout tape on what they are right now.

162
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 1: And Ransa will still get something out of his rooky

163
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 1: year just being in meetings, being around the guys.

164
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 3: He has to.

165
00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 2: I mean, those guys have to stay and it's really

166
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 2: difficult when you're heard and you know it's going to

167
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 2: be a tough go so you've got to and he's

168
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 2: the type of guy that will handle it the right way.

169
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,440
Speaker 2: He's had injuries in the past, you know, he's been

170
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 2: hurt before, he's been able to stay locked in and

171
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 2: come back from that. So I have the confidence in

172
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 2: him that he'll be in there doing the right things.

173
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 2: Why I mean the guy I remember hearing a story

174
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 2: when he had surgery, he had tulane he had he

175
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 2: was waiting to get surgery and he had his or

176
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 2: he just had surgery and he had his iPad with

177
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:14,920
Speaker 2: him and he had the video guy download all of

178
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 2: the best nickels in the NFL and he was watching

179
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 2: all their tape while he was, you know, out of

180
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 2: post ops. So he's got that right mindset and he

181
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 2: has to take advantage of it.

182
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 4: A little talk this a little talk topic, but are

183
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:30,720
Speaker 4: you push push guy.

184
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 3: Or oh man?

185
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,839
Speaker 2: I do believe in quarterback sneaks and we do have

186
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 2: a push variation, you know, so it obviously the rule

187
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 2: is what it is, so you do need to probably

188
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 2: take advantage of it at times. We do have a

189
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 2: bigger quarterback that you know, can get a couple of

190
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 2: yards you hope, or a yard or two. So yeah,

191
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 2: we do have that in our scheme. It's hard to

192
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 2: simulate it. Out here in these settings, but we do

193
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,080
Speaker 2: have it, especially if you need it based on maybe

194
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,280
Speaker 2: it's a backed up you're on the one yard line

195
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 2: or you know, one inch line and you need to

196
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 2: go out and get it there, and we'll look at it.

197
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 2: Last year, I think we were I don't know what

198
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 2: we were in short yardage in the NFL, but I

199
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 2: think we're.

200
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:13,880
Speaker 3: It was good.

201
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 2: It was just we didn't do a ton of que

202
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 2: sneaks because Baker was not the biggest even though he

203
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 2: would probably bust my chops for saying that, but he can.

204
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,599
Speaker 3: He can get them too though, so it'll be a

205
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 3: part of this game.

206
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: Back to Caleb, was that story you shared he had

207
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:27,920
Speaker 1: surgery at Tulane.

208
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:30,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it was surgery at Tulane or something

209
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 2: when he had had an injury at some point in

210
00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 2: his career.

211
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 3: And that's right. It was during college.

212
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 2: No, no, no, he was during college, and he was,

213
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,880
Speaker 2: you know, really starting to get ahead and just look

214
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 2: at how he could improve his game by watching nfls

215
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 2: do it, NFL players do it.

216
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,080
Speaker 3: So he's got that makeup.

217
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: And I'm very good friends with his college coach, John

218
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 2: summer All and you know the way he's always spoken

219
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 2: about him, has always been pretty consistent with what we've

220
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 2: seen so far. And Doctor Travis in terms of workload

221
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,600
Speaker 2: and actice, what is your expectation Obviously you know.

222
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:04,319
Speaker 4: Not to give away game plan, but in terms of

223
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 4: how you manage him now week to.

224
00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:10,760
Speaker 2: Week, it'll be very similar to where you know based

225
00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 2: on how we do it, because the one offense goes

226
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 2: and then the one defense goes separate, so that's kind

227
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,360
Speaker 2: of you can get him in on both of those

228
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,439
Speaker 2: based on the rep count and if he's in with

229
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 2: whichever group, whether it's the first of the second group

230
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 2: to get reps. It's about maximizing, especially now because those

231
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: reps trimmed down in the course of a practice, so

232
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,840
Speaker 2: we're not gonna get maybe those forty to fifty reps

233
00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,000
Speaker 2: in each practice that we've been kind of consistently getting

234
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 2: through our training camp, so we have to maximize exactly

235
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,839
Speaker 2: every before every practice, Eb and Milo are gonna have

236
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:51,720
Speaker 2: to go through each and every play and highlight which

237
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,080
Speaker 2: ones he specifically needs to get so that we're very

238
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 2: intentional about his reps.

239
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,959
Speaker 3: All right, a day one install.

240
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 2: That we've run four five, like you know, fifty times now,

241
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 2: or whatever it is. He doesn't probably need that rep

242
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 2: on a Wednesday. You know, it's let's make the most

243
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,599
Speaker 2: of his reps and make sure that he's getting the

244
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 2: quality work that he needs.

245
00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,360
Speaker 5: It's been a long offseason, but personally, how excited are

246
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 5: you to finally get to the starting line.

247
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's really it's really cool.

248
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 2: You know, you take the job and so much has

249
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 2: kind of occurred since, but you haven't been able to

250
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 2: play a game yet. And that's ultimately what we are

251
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 2: judged by, right is wins and losses at the end

252
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 2: of the day. But you're really more excited to see

253
00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 2: these guys go play and you know, win or loss.

254
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 2: You want to just see, Okay, what's our resiliency, Like

255
00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 2: what is our response? Like get guys in games, and

256
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 2: typically you know, you see one thing.

257
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 3: Or the other.

258
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 2: Right, there's guys that will impress us that may we

259
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,560
Speaker 2: might not have seen yet. I mean, that's just game day.

260
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:57,679
Speaker 2: Anything can happen. So I'm just excited to see these

261
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 2: guys go out and play with with joy, with urgent enjoyment,

262
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: and go play with each other, you know, and see

263
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 2: how they respond to adversity, how we all respond to adversity.

264
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:13,120
Speaker 5: Can you look at the runs one trying to find

265
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 5: balance this year? Do you feel like you're making progress

266
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 5: towards being that type of balanced offense that can help

267
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 5: the quarterback out.

268
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 3: We're making progress, you know.

269
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:25,160
Speaker 2: It's so hard to truly judge it going into week

270
00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 2: one because you've only had the really the one joint

271
00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 2: and then the few preseason reps.

272
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 3: That you get with the first group.

273
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,360
Speaker 2: But I think if you look at the entirety of

274
00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 2: it throughout training camp, the physicality in which I think

275
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 2: we practiced for the majority of the time when we

276
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:46,520
Speaker 2: would go, I do believe was showing progress throughout that time.

277
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: And then you look at some of the preseason ops,

278
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 2: even with maybe the second and third groups in there,

279
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 2: you know, being able to be physical in the run

280
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 2: game and finish people and the backs doing some different things.

281
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 3: So are we there yet? It's hard to say.

282
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 2: We didn't get good in the run game in Tampa

283
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:08,560
Speaker 2: really until after Week four last year, where I think

284
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 2: we rushed for about like ninety yards almost one hundred

285
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,760
Speaker 2: yards Week one, we rushed for like forty yards Week

286
00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 2: two against the Lions, and we weren't really moving it

287
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 2: running the football at all and it was getting better.

288
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 2: You could see it kind of trending. But after week

289
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,959
Speaker 2: four we kind of made a tweak and started doing

290
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 2: a few things.

291
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 3: Differently and it kind of took off.

292
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 2: So ultimately it may take a few games to truly

293
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:37,160
Speaker 2: see what that evolution is because running the football takes

294
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,920
Speaker 2: all eleven. Takes all eleven, whereas a pass play, yes

295
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 2: it takes all eleven, but you just sometimes you just

296
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,199
Speaker 2: need the protection of work the quarterback to throw it

297
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 2: to the guy and you need him to catch it right.

298
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 3: You need everybody to be the right spot at the right.

299
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 2: Time and execute their routes and concepts exactly right. The

300
00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 2: run game, it takes a little bit more detail and

301
00:13:55,679 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 2: all eleven being involved.

302
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 6: I did love how college football used to be, so

303
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 6: not to be one of those guys and there's all

304
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 6: exactly no no, I think just whatever it is, it is.

305
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 6: I mean, I'm happy for the guys that are getting money.

306
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,320
Speaker 6: I think that's great, especially for you look at some

307
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:17,960
Speaker 6: people that their NFL careers don't pan out the way

308
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 6: some people think like you just never know, and there's

309
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,280
Speaker 6: guys that have opportunities to make a lot of money

310
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 6: in college and then don't end up making that money

311
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 6: in the NFL, So it's great for those situations. I

312
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 6: do think there is something special about college and you know,

313
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 6: not being professional and all those things.

314
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 4: It's like the great experience. But who knows. I'm sure

315
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 4: these kids are having fun and I'll stack of money

316
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:39,640
Speaker 4: in the front.

317
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 6: No, oh, thank you, thank you. No, I didn't get

318
00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 6: the brown paper bag. Some people will call it.

319
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 3: But what kind of report?

320
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,720
Speaker 5: What kind of report? Trying to establish for Lee, I'm

321
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 5: be able to play calling during this training camp.

322
00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 6: Just constant communication throughout practice. Obviously there's a lot of

323
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,960
Speaker 6: breaks between series and all that stuff where we can

324
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 6: catch up on some plays or even right after a play,

325
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,080
Speaker 6: I'll kind of give me his feedback on what he's thinking,

326
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 6: what he sees. So all that stuff I've just been

327
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 6: taken in for the last really, i mean four months

328
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 6: or month whatever it's been since the spring. So that's

329
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 6: been great, I'd say too, like in the meeting rooms

330
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 6: and now game planning, like that's a.

331
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 4: Big part of it.

332
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,440
Speaker 6: Week to week, it's gonna change, and we have such

333
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 6: a good staf. It does a great job of breaking

334
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 6: down you know, whether it's defenses, our scheme, our plan,

335
00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,000
Speaker 6: why we're doing things a certain way, and I think

336
00:15:34,120 --> 00:15:36,480
Speaker 6: just talking with Liam throughout the week and making sure

337
00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 6: once we step on the field Sunday, we're just in

338
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 6: lockstep as far as what he's seeing, why he's calling

339
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 6: certain things. Obviously, it's my job to get the ball

340
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,840
Speaker 6: to the right guy, and that coverage has changed, so

341
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 6: it's not always going to go to who you're setting

342
00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 6: the play up for. But there's a ton of options

343
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 6: out there, so I got to play the play out.

344
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 6: But knowing what he's thinking, why he's calling certain things,

345
00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 6: is certainly valuable, and we want to be on the

346
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 6: same page.

347
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:57,760
Speaker 4: I feel like.

348
00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,720
Speaker 6: We're, you know, on a great jectory on that, but

349
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,840
Speaker 6: it's week to week. You got to continue to communicate.

350
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 3: I guess it was.

351
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 2: Yesterday, but that first day where you walk out, it's

352
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 2: the fifty three smaller practice, different feeling.

353
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 4: Way, different feeling.

354
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 6: That's always it's always one of the weirdest days of

355
00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 6: the year. You know, you've had these guys around since

356
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,640
Speaker 6: spring and you've kind of built those relationships. You're used

357
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 6: to having a full locker room, full practice field, and

358
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,680
Speaker 6: then all through training camp, guys are competing guys are

359
00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 6: trying to earn roster spots. You're just building your team,

360
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,120
Speaker 6: and it's all it's just a weird reality of this

361
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 6: that not everyone's gonna make it along for the whole way.

362
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 4: And uh, that's the tough part about it.

363
00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 6: Is you know, you have friends that come and go,

364
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,680
Speaker 6: guys you build relationships with that have done a great job,

365
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:42,280
Speaker 6: that have worked hard to try to earn a spot,

366
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,160
Speaker 6: and it just doesn't work out.

367
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 4: And so that's always the hardest part.

368
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 6: But you know, for our team, for the guys, it

369
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 6: is you know, the fifty three plus the practice, but

370
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 6: those guys are those guys are on this team as well,

371
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 6: and they're a.

372
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,360
Speaker 4: Huge part of it. So this is the group we

373
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 4: have and I'm really pumped about it.

374
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 6: But it is the tough part of the business is

375
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 6: you know, you see guys coming go a lot, but

376
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 6: you also know it's good for sure, Yeah, exactly. And

377
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,719
Speaker 6: then we're that's also the same time we transition out

378
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 6: of camp and we start kind of supplementing, like some

379
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 6: of the Carolina and stuff, and you're getting ready for

380
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 6: week one, start the game plan, so you start to

381
00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 6: narrow in your scheme a little bit because in training camp,

382
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,880
Speaker 6: everything's an option. The whole playbook's in as you're trying

383
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,120
Speaker 6: just to get everything in and run it. But now

384
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 6: it's more focused on the defense we're gonna see and

385
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 6: what we want to run against.

386
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 4: It look like a good day with BT or you

387
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,199
Speaker 4: seeing him kind of sharpen up as the opener gets closer.

388
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think you know, it's just a testament to

389
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 6: the amount of work that he's been putting in and

390
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 6: out here on the practice food and you guys seen

391
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,520
Speaker 6: every practice, so it's you guys have a good perspective

392
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 6: on just the whole thing. It's not every day is

393
00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 6: going to be clean and perfect, and just because whether

394
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 6: it's me, BT, Travis, you know, group up front tight ends,

395
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 6: whatever it is, there's gonna be days where you have

396
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:54,800
Speaker 6: stuff you got to figure out and there's a new system,

397
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 6: there's new plays you're running, and so there's been some

398
00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:58,439
Speaker 6: stuff that me and BT have kind of had to

399
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 6: iron out. But through reps, whether that's after practice, in practice,

400
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 6: in the film room, talking about every single look. I

401
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 6: really think we've taken some huge steps because we tried

402
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 6: to do this last year and obviously it was a

403
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 6: different system.

404
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 4: I get hurt, so we didn't get a full year.

405
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 6: And then now it's a new system and trying to

406
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 6: build that you know, chemistry and the rapport again, and

407
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 6: it's been awesome. I like where we're at right now,

408
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 6: but it's about the whole season getting better. It's not

409
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 6: about just where you're at week one.

410
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 4: We got a long year. Do you guys have lu

411
00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 4: Clemson friendly wager? That's a great point. I know.

412
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 6: I don't know if I'm allowed to do that, actually,

413
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,240
Speaker 6: so it's a terrible point. Actually, I'm gon't to talked

414
00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:34,640
Speaker 6: to him about it. I haven't talked hibout the game.

415
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:35,920
Speaker 6: I'm sure, I'm sure I'll be watching.

416
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 3: Where's the culture change come from?

417
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: Where the culture building come from for this year's team?

418
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,720
Speaker 4: And isn't that very important? With so many new guys?

419
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 4: It's really important, you know.

420
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:52,439
Speaker 6: I think obviously the energy that coach Cohen's brought in

421
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 6: and the whole staff, the coaching, the just level of detail,

422
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 6: all the things that they're that they've done up and

423
00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 6: up until this point has been awesome. And they brought

424
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 6: a lot of energy every day and coach is hard

425
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,040
Speaker 6: and the expectations have been really high, which has been.

426
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 4: Good for our team.

427
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 6: I think we've grown a lot, but ultimately it has

428
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:10,760
Speaker 6: to be from the players, you know, until you really

429
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:13,760
Speaker 6: own it from a players standpoint and push each other,

430
00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 6: push each other, you know, that's really where the difference is.

431
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 6: And I think we've taken some big steps in that

432
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,639
Speaker 6: we have. We have some more work to do, but

433
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 6: I really like even the new guys we brought in

434
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,639
Speaker 6: from different places, just like Hainsey, Jordan Lewis, just to

435
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,080
Speaker 6: name a couple, Eric Murray, a bunch of other guys

436
00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:32,360
Speaker 6: could be named too. But those guys we brought in

437
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 6: good players, really good players, but really good leaders too

438
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 6: that handle their business right way.

439
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 4: And that was part of it right there.

440
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,720
Speaker 1: They brought those guys in and part of the reason

441
00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:42,919
Speaker 1: they brought them is because of the guys that they.

442
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 4: Are, right. Yeah, that's a huge that's a huge part

443
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:46,240
Speaker 4: of this. That's what.

444
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 6: You gotta be able to perform on the field, right,

445
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,080
Speaker 6: I mean, that's our job. You got to you gotta

446
00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,439
Speaker 6: be able to produce. But who you are in the

447
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 6: locker room and the example you set for the younger guys,

448
00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 6: especially when we have a younger team, Uh, that's important.

449
00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 6: And when you have a guy that leads the room

450
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 6: that's not a guy that whatever it is on a team,

451
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:06,440
Speaker 6: whether it's complaining negativity, that stuff like festers and a

452
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 6: team and it grows. And I think we've had a

453
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 6: good group of leaders have been super positive this camp.

454
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:11,160
Speaker 6: So it's been great.

455
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,400
Speaker 1: If we think back to the spring to now, where

456
00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 1: do you think your biggest area of growth has been.

457
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:20,399
Speaker 6: I think there's there's a lot of things with my

458
00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,439
Speaker 6: footwork that I wanted to work on. I've seen some

459
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:24,800
Speaker 6: growth with that. That's still something like I've said since

460
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:26,440
Speaker 6: the beginning, you got to continue to work every day.

461
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 4: That's a big part of it.

462
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 6: I think just my eyes progressions, really mastering the offense

463
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 6: as far as all the checks, all the protection changes.

464
00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 6: I really like the the growth that we've honestly had

465
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 6: since the spring, and not just myself, but the group

466
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 6: because it takes all eleven of us. It's the group

467
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,879
Speaker 6: up front, it's me, it's the back, especially in protections.

468
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,440
Speaker 6: You know, if I know it and but I can't communicate,

469
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 6: it doesn't do any good. So all of us working

470
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 6: together have taken some big steps. Yeah, obviously has the size,

471
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 6: has experience, He's played a lot of meaningful football, made

472
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,960
Speaker 6: a lot of big plays. I think just having a

473
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 6: guy that's older in the room, a veteran presence, that's valuable.

474
00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:08,600
Speaker 4: But yeah, as far as the.

475
00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 6: Receiving type, something that we don't really have, the big body,

476
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 6: rangy guy. So I think that's valuable for us just

477
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 6: to continue to make that room better and better. And

478
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 6: we got some really good ones and he's just another

479
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:20,679
Speaker 6: addition that's gonna help.

480
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,040
Speaker 4: Us for sure training camp.

481
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:24,520
Speaker 5: Now in the rear view, how would you evaluate Travis

482
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 5: and the process of him playing both.

483
00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 4: Positions up to this point? Yes, why, I love that song.

484
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:34,719
Speaker 3: That was awesome.

485
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:37,040
Speaker 4: It's great.

486
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 6: It's just unfazed Jean's ghost. Anyways, I gotta focus back

487
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,000
Speaker 6: in Travis. Yeah, it's been it's been impressive, like we've

488
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:51,720
Speaker 6: said since the beginning, to see him go both ways

489
00:21:51,760 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 6: and then uh that's it, oh miss Gene. Uh yeah,

490
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 6: it's just to see the amount of you have to

491
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 6: put in to do that. It's hard enough to play

492
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 6: one way in the NFL, much less two ways. I

493
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,520
Speaker 6: mean to learn offense defense. It's it's a lot, and

494
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:12,720
Speaker 6: he's done a really good job. So what's probably was it?

495
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 4: What's it? Like for you though, like you know, the

496
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,520
Speaker 4: fact that you do it. For one minute he's at

497
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 4: wide receiver, Yeah, throw him.

498
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: The next minute he's oppositely just you.

499
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:26,199
Speaker 6: Know, always trying to you know, it's his responsibility to

500
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,000
Speaker 6: know what to do and when he steps in huddlee.

501
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,440
Speaker 6: He's done a great job with that. But also being

502
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 6: conscious of he's a rookie, he's a lot going on,

503
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 6: he's playing both ways. Trying to help him as much

504
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 6: as I can with little reminders or different things with

505
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 6: the formations or concepts or whatever. Just trying to give

506
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,360
Speaker 6: him a reminders so it's not hey, you're on your own.

507
00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 6: I'll figure it out, you know, And he's done a

508
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 6: good job of knowing it. But as much as we

509
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 6: can help him out, I think that is important.

510
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 1: When you add a guy like him as close a

511
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: week one, what do you have to do to kind

512
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:54,960
Speaker 1: of build that chemistry and just keep damn.

513
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 3: Ready with him?

514
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:57,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, just get some throws.

515
00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 6: I think you know, all the timing routes, that stuff

516
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 6: that you can see and you don't have to throw

517
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,479
Speaker 6: it before they break, like certain routes it's a little different,

518
00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 6: but the routes where you're throwing it early, anticipating all

519
00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 6: those things.

520
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 4: Just got to get those throughout next week.

521
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:12,679
Speaker 6: You know, we'll have an extra practice on Monday, so

522
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 6: we'll have some time to get some of those routes

523
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,160
Speaker 6: and just gonna get him throughout the week and then

524
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 6: for him, you know, obviously just has to put the

525
00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 6: time in this weekend, has some time to learn. It

526
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,080
Speaker 6: a big offense to learn and over the weekend. But

527
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 6: obviously I'm gonna be there to help him anything he needs.

528
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,199
Speaker 6: And he's got my number. Now we'd already linked up

529
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:31,960
Speaker 6: in the locker room and excited to have him, So

530
00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 6: we'll get him up to speed. Obviously, we're we're gonna

531
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,360
Speaker 6: we're gonna have him ready. If he goes on the field,

532
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:37,680
Speaker 6: he's gonna know what to do. He's gonna be ready,

533
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,200
Speaker 6: and he's a pro, so he knows how to handle

534
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:39,480
Speaker 6: all that.

535
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,720
Speaker 5: Feel like excited and ready to finally get out there

536
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:44,080

Speaker 6: Yeah, you kind of training camps exciting at first, and

539
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,720
Speaker 6: then after a couple of weeks pricing against each other,

540
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,639
Speaker 6: you're like, all right, let's you know, you're ready to

541
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,159
Speaker 6: get to the common opponent. Let's all come together as

542
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 6: a team and go play somebody so excited. Yeah, it's

543
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 6: just you know, I think just all the excitmen about

544
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:02,120
Speaker 6: all the possibilities of a new year. It's a clean

545
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 6: slate and all starts next week, so you know, obviously

546
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 6: gonna kind of reset, recharge this weekend and be ready

547
00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 6: to go for week one.

548
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 4: That was been strange. Throughout over training camp, he's been awesome.

549
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 4: I think this master in the system knowing what to do.

550
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,280
Speaker 6: There's a learning curve for everyone in the spring, and

551
00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 6: I think the steps he's taken from the spring coming

552
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 6: into training camp, you see him able to make so

553
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 6: many plays just because he's playing fast.

554
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 4: He knows what to do.

555
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 6: He's a great matchup for us at tight end and

556
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 6: I'm excited for him, and he's gonna have a really

557
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,760
Speaker 6: big year. And he's another weapon that I think some

558
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:35,640
Speaker 6: people don't really ask enough about sometimes because he's It's

559
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 6: just we have a lot of weapons on offense, a

560
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 6: lot of guys that can play, so he's a guy

561
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 6: that's really valuable to us what he can do, run game,

562
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:43,880
Speaker 6: pass game everything.

563
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 4: He's a great player. Thanks
