I'm excited. That was such a 0:00:58.520 --> 0:00:59.560 great program for sure. 0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:01.600 Ryan Mink. 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:04.840 Yeah, Tavious, can you walk me through your background a 0:01:04.840 --> 0:01:07.440 little bit. I know, coming from Canada, I read that 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:11.040 you kind of aspired to go enter the CFL, and 0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:13.120 then the pandemic kind of changed your mind. Can you 0:01:13.160 --> 0:01:14.720 can you walk me through the story of how you 0:01:14.800 --> 0:01:17.360 ended up landing at Old Miss and pursuing an NFL 0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:17.840 career now? 0:01:18.800 --> 0:01:21.360 Yeah, So I played two years at university football up 0:01:21.360 --> 0:01:23.880 here in Canada, and then when COVID happened, everything got 0:01:24.040 --> 0:01:26.720 shut down here football got canceled. And then at that 0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:28.960 point I was sending out my tape everywhere trying to 0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:31.679 get a school in the States, and then Ole Miss 0:01:31.720 --> 0:01:33.360 was one of my first as a c offers. So 0:01:33.360 --> 0:01:34.880 that's how I ended up at Old Miss and then 0:01:35.200 --> 0:01:37.040 had three years there and now I'm here. 0:01:37.120 --> 0:01:44.680 So yeah, Luke Jones, Tyboas, Congratulations. 0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:46.640 Who are some players you've tried to model your game 0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:49.240 after as you've prepared for this NFL career. 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:53.320 Max Crosby is someone who I watched a ton because 0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:56.440 he has a relentless motor. So that's one thing I 0:01:56.480 --> 0:01:58.440 watched him throughout the season. That's that's kind of what 0:01:58.520 --> 0:02:00.600 I try to model my game off is never giving 0:02:00.680 --> 0:02:03.120 up on places, playing with a relentless motor. And then 0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:04.920 on top of that, like he has great pass which 0:02:04.960 --> 0:02:07.560 moves is a great run defender. So but the motor 0:02:07.560 --> 0:02:09.400 part is one thing that I try to take from 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:10.360 his game one hundred percent. 0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:16.400 So Childs Walker, Yeah, I hate tav congratulations. 0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:19.320 You know, we hear from everybody that you were you 0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:21.120 were really coming on sort of at the end of 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:21.880 your college career. 0:02:21.880 --> 0:02:24.519 I mean in your mind, where did you improve the most? 0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:26.160 And then where do you still think you have the 0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:27.000 most room to grow? 0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:28.320 Yeah? 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:29.200 I think the most. 0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:31.720 I just improved that the game like started to slow 0:02:31.760 --> 0:02:33.480 down for me, and the more I learned from my coaches, 0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:35.520 the better I got and the more confident I felt 0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:38.440 out there. I became a better power rusher this year, 0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:41.240 better stopping the run, and I just feel like I 0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:43.560 still have so much more room to grow. And you know, 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:45.960 I'm a sponge. I like to be coached and I 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:48.839 like to become as best as I can at this game. 0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:50.320 So I think there's a lot a lot of room 0:02:50.360 --> 0:02:50.680 to grow. 0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:51.120 For sure. 0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:53.680 We'll go to Cordill Woodland. 0:02:55.680 --> 0:03:00.000 Hey, tav Is, congratulations A lot of forest fumbles for you. 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:02.919 When did it become an emphasis for you to start 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:03.960 really going after the. 0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:06.960 Football really from the start of the season, Like that's 0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:10.320 something that our DC D line coach preaches because turnovers 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:12.639 can win games. You know, the turnover margining where you 0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:15.000 got to take like the ball wins game. So whenever 0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:17.240 you get a shot to take that ball out, it's 0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:19.840 what you got to do. So a sack isn't enough 0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:21.160 if you got to get the strip sack. So that's 0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:22.639 kind of my mentality with it. 0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:31.120 So we'll go to Jeff's soreback, Pavious, where how much 0:03:31.160 --> 0:03:33.919 interaction did you have in the Ravens and the pre draft. 0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:36.600 Process and and and what was kind of the extent 0:03:36.640 --> 0:03:36.880 of that. 0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:40.080 Yeah, we had talked a little bit at the Combine 0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:43.240 and the Senior Bowl. I remember that, and so I 0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:45.000 knew that they were on my raidar. I didn't know 0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:46.400 one hundred percent of it was gonna end up. But 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:48.440 you know, when I got that call from Baltimore again, 0:03:48.520 --> 0:03:51.080 I was ecstatic and just excited to come into such 0:03:51.080 --> 0:03:51.800 a great program. 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:55.160 So yeah, Johanna Schaeffer. 0:03:56.280 --> 0:03:57.840 It Davious, congratulations. 0:03:57.920 --> 0:03:58.640 Two questions for you. 0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:01.040 I guess have you talked that much with the Ravens 0:04:01.080 --> 0:04:04.119 about what kind of role in the defense you would have? 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:06.640 And then also just looking at your bio, I saw 0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:08.400 that you used to work at one night hundred got 0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:12.240 junk before you got the college offer, What was that 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:14.000 experience like for you? And I guess have you thought 0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:16.240 it all about just how far you've come since you, 0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:20.320 you know, made since you major break into college football. Yeah, 0:04:20.320 --> 0:04:23.240 so with that story right before, like when football had 0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:25.919 got canceled here in Canada, like because here in Canada, 0:04:25.960 --> 0:04:28.080 we don't get full scholarships, like you got to work 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:30.960 to pay for your school for the upcoming year. So 0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:32.960 before I got in your offers, I had applied for 0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:35.479 that job, got that job, and was like just getting 0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:37.800 ready to start working to make enough money to go 0:04:37.800 --> 0:04:40.720 to university the upcoming year. But at the same time, 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:41.960 I was sending up my tape, but I didn't know 0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:43.719 if anything was gonna come from it. But then I 0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:45.520 got the old Miss offer and then yeah, I didn't 0:04:45.560 --> 0:04:47.440 even I think I was like scheduled to go and 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:49.080 for work and then I got the old Miss offer 0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:51.919 like two days before, and then I like quit and 0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:52.600 then it was on a. 0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:55.400 Plane to the Old Miss like the next day.

I wanted to ask you two things. First 0:05:13.760 --> 0:05:16.719 of all, you are the fourth Canadian to go. You 0:05:16.760 --> 0:05:19.680 and I both know that ties the record for most. 0:05:19.720 --> 0:05:22.800 And what your thoughts are about the amount of Canadians 0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:25.240 that we're seeing going into the NFL draft in the 0:05:25.320 --> 0:05:27.839 last four or five years, and what that what that 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:29.240 significance is for you. 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:32.039 Yeah, it's so significant to me because at the end 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:34.080 of the day, there's so many great players up here who, 0:05:34.880 --> 0:05:36.880 in my mind, if they were in D one school, 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:38.680 they would be in the same position, but they just 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.280 it's hard to get that opportunity from Canada.

Can you talk about where your game grew, 0:09:40.360 --> 0:09:43.280 what you'll bring to the Ravens. Then secondly your matchup 0:09:43.320 --> 0:09:44.160 with Jordan Addison. 0:09:47.080 --> 0:09:50.040 Yeah, I'll start with my career. I mean just playing 0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:51.679 four years of ball, you get a lot of experience, 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:53.680 see a lot of football. You learn a lot about 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:55.640 the game as the years grow. And I feel like 0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:57.719 what I bring to the secondary and just to the 0:09:57.800 --> 0:10:01.719 team is one a competitor, really really uber competitor. You know, 0:10:01.840 --> 0:10:03.439 whatever I'm doing, I want to be the best and 0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:07.280 beat the best nickel and a corner, you know, whatever 0:10:07.320 --> 0:10:08.880 they want to want to fit me at and man 0:10:08.960 --> 0:10:12.319 covers covers. I was able to experience a lot of 0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:14.599 different scheme diversity that really helps me be in a 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:18.320 Swiss Army Knight put me in different places. As far 0:10:18.400 --> 0:10:20.839 as Jordan a great player, great player. He got me 0:10:20.920 --> 0:10:23.880 on that one post and we had some up the 0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:26.000 line of scrimmage and I didn't get any balls after that, 0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:26.959 but great player. 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.040 I see him doing well in the league, just like 0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:31.920 I expect myself to do well. And yeah, for sure, 0:10:33.200 --> 0:10:34.320 we'll go to Brian Whacker. 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.599 Hey, how you read that you signed a deal with 0:10:39.800 --> 0:10:42.760 Microsoft for a video game that you created and you're 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:47.280 also involved in real estate development. Can you just talk 0:10:47.320 --> 0:10:48.960 about what sparked those two things. 0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:54.160 Yeah, I believe it or not. It's pretty cliche. My dad, 0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:57.600 my dad, it was funny. For the video game. 0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:00.120 We have a friend of ours who was creating a 0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:02.400 movie that's gonna come out and it's based on what 0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:04.480 the video game is based on, and he introduced it 0:11:04.520 --> 0:11:07.080 to my dad and I play video games, so my dad, 0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:09.599 they both knew nothing about video games, and he was like, 0:11:09.720 --> 0:11:10.560 you know, my son. 0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:13.120 Plays a lot of video games. And he was like, ky, 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:14.280 you can you create. 0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:17.400 A story like a storyboard or a log or some 0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:19.480 type of lore for this game and figure out a 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:22.520 story based behind it. And I just sat down, like 0:11:22.880 --> 0:11:26.959 maybe a few hours, created a whole storyboard, characters and 0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:29.800 stuff like that, and they gave it to the company 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:32.000 and they really liked it. So that game is still 0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:34.520 in progress. We're still figuring that out. It would definitely 0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:35.520 be coming. 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:38.720 Out soon with the movie and everything and real estate 0:11:39.720 --> 0:11:40.160 once again. 0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:43.200 My dad, believe it or not, he's definitely doing real 0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:44.240 estate development right now. 0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:46.160 He got his own development company out in Vegas. 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:48.280 And I was blessed to be at Stanford to do 0:11:48.600 --> 0:11:52.600 internships with venture capitalists and private equities and real estate 0:11:52.679 --> 0:11:55.079 firms alike, and just being around it with my dad 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:57.280 seeing it around. There's something I would just want to 0:11:57.360 --> 0:11:59.559 dive into throughout this whole process in the NFL and 0:11:59.679 --> 0:12:00.600 after on. 0:12:00.720 --> 0:12:01.400 The video game. 0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:04.439 What's the sorry, what's what is the game or movie 0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:06.600 or at least what's based in. 0:12:08.160 --> 0:12:10.120 I can't I can't talk to us about the movie, 0:12:10.200 --> 0:12:12.000 but the video game is if you can think of 0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:16.439 like a Seal Team six that travels back in time 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:20.160 to stop people from trying to change historic events. 0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:21.720 So let's say somebody trying to. 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:30.760 Redirect I'm saying too much, but yeah, that's that's. 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:28.959 The hole. 0:12:30.280 --> 0:12:31.319 Travel Seal Team sick. 0:12:31.559 --> 0:12:35.239 Yeah, Yeah, thank you, Yeah, yeah, David. 0:12:35.040 --> 0:12:40.920 And Roving, Hey, are you welcome to Baltimore?

How good of a challenge this 0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:51.120 will be for your game? 0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:55.000 I mean, this is something I used to always think about, 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:57.520 like playing against you know, guys like Obj.
