1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: So, first of all, last day here of open practices.

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:08,240
Speaker 1: I really appreciate the fan support, good attendance. I know

3
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:13,039
Speaker 1: it gives the guy's juice. Good weather. Today, we're moving

4
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: on from from last week, so we're kind of done

5
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: with last week. This is a fresh week. I have

6
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,960
Speaker 1: a lot to work on. We have two padded practices

7
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 1: this week, one with shells, good competitive periods, and you know,

8
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 1: just focus on getting better fundamentally and improve our techniques.

9
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,640
Speaker 1: That's kind of where we're at. Can you update us

10
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 1: on Shane and the other guys who are Yeah, Um, Shane,

11
00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 1: Shane won't be out there today. He probably won't be

12
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,599
Speaker 1: out there this week. We'll see what kind of take

13
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: a day by day? Um who else? Who else was hurt? Jamale?

14
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: He won't he won't be out I mean, these guys

15
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: will be rehabing to doing the stuff they can, but

16
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,040
Speaker 1: he won't be out there either. Get the practice to

17
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,959
Speaker 1: make a soundmich Shane. At least that it's it's not

18
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: like a serious long term thing. Is that fair to say?

19
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: At least, Um, what's long term for you? Into the

20
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 1: regular season. We'll see, we'll see. Um, you know, he

21
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 1: definitely he did something but I don't want to like, look,

22
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: we're day by day with these injuries. We'll see where

23
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:23,039
Speaker 1: he's at. Um. I know this guy will rehab the

24
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,360
Speaker 1: best he can do to get available for us. It's

25
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: still called the Tew injury. That's a faigure. That's how

26
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 1: you asked. Yeah, it's it's something with his foot. Coo.

27
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: How much preperation goes into a preseason game? How much

28
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 1: game plan that actually happened goes into a piece of game? Um?

29
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 1: And the last one none, this one probably not much either.

30
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: I think really you're you're trying to evaluate players, um,

31
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: which is most important. You know, we got goes to

32
00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: eighty five on Tuesday, and then eighty the next Tuesday

33
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: and fifty three the next Tuesday. So it's happening quick. Um.

34
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: But there's there's not a lot out of game planning,

35
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: and you're kind of running some core plays or plays

36
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: you want to take a look at that. You want

37
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: to have guys run or run the route, run the blitz,

38
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: run the run whatever. Maybe you have Josh go in

39
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: where Shane was. Uh, Um, yeah he'll be. He'll be.

40
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 1: He's working back through some stuff too, so um, you

41
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: probably see Brettison in there today a little bit holdock, um, same,

42
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:36,920
Speaker 1: he'll be working back. We'll see where he's at by

43
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 1: the end of the week. UM. So we you know,

44
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 1: we had some guys that get a little bit dinged up. UM.

45
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: I don't think anything real serious. But also trying to

46
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: do right by the players to get them back healthy

47
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: as we can. Is the amount of the amount of

48
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: injuries causing you at all to adjust what you would

49
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:57,119
Speaker 1: have done this week, not not to this point. Um.

50
00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,400
Speaker 1: I think the guys we were gonna go three days

51
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: of pads. UM, but I think after talking to the

52
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 1: sports science and trainers, you know, we did adjust one

53
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 1: of those days to to know pad to practice. Um.

54
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: But every team goes through it, and every year. I mean,

55
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 1: it's not much different than fifteen years ago, ten years

56
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 1: ago of teams I've been around. You you're constantly doing that,

57
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 1: even though the fans won't be here and you you know,

58
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: technically closed camp there saying will you continue your schedule

59
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: the same way to think over the next couple of weeks. Yeah,

60
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 1: well we'll be the same, the same I mean with

61
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 1: tweaks here there, we're always adjusted and on our off

62
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: days see if we can do things better, structure, things different. Um,

63
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: but you know, I've liked I liked the pace of it,

64
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: the timing. That's been good for the players. You expect,

65
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: you hopeful that Josh will be from the game for

66
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: week two or It's tough to tell you right now, UM,

67
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: probably questionable. What what is it about Bobby Johnson that

68
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: you can trust to him with? Yeah, doing the job here.

69
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 1: I've been around him for I've worked with him for

70
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: a few years and I've seen how he operates, and

71
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: I think he's creative in the run game, and he

72
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: does a good job with the fundamentals. He relates well

73
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: to the players. He's a good football coach. I think

74
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 1: the players respect him. Um, I think he offers a

75
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 1: lot to the offensive staff. Probably one of the first

76
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: move you guys made when you got here was was

77
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 1: bringing Antonio over with you. What did you see from

78
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 1: him there and what have you seen from him in

79
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 1: this summer? Consummate pro. I mean, he's you know, he

80
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 1: took the advantage of his opportunities. You know, the best

81
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: player probably had was on the kickoff in the second half.

82
00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: We went down there and tackle the guy for not

83
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: much of a game. Um, he was excited about that.

84
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,279
Speaker 1: He's you know, he's a guy that's constantly working to

85
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,560
Speaker 1: try to stick on a roster and then stick around.

86
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: His mindset is good, he's smart, it's it's a good

87
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: competition in that room. What have you seen from Kenny

88
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: Gallady this summer and from our perspective, from my perspective

89
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,640
Speaker 1: to speak for myself, when you see him, you know,

90
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 1: running the separation just hasn't really been there consistently. I'm

91
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 1: curious what you see. Yeah, I think he's he's acclimated

92
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,920
Speaker 1: himself well in terms of what we're doing. Again, all

93
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:23,559
Speaker 1: receivers they're different, you know, some are really shifty and quick,

94
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: some are big and physical, and um, it's just a

95
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: matter of when you know you have an opportunity to

96
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 1: go out there and make plays, which he's made some

97
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 1: of them, that you go ahead and make him. Um.

98
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 1: I've been pleased with how he's handled himself. He's been

99
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 1: a pro and he's competing. You know, he's competing every

100
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 1: day with those guys. So and like in like the

101
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,559
Speaker 1: in the preseason of Momre and Kenny for a second

102
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: in the preseason and you just wanted you're right with

103
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 1: the deep ball that Daniel threw to him like you

104
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: just wanted him, Daniel to kind of give him a

105
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 1: chance to go make that play. Yeah, there's a guy

106
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:57,080
Speaker 1: like buckled into Daniel's knees too. So, um, you know

107
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: I'm over on the sideline talking to Daniel like can

108
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: we can we give the guy a chance? And you know,

109
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 1: to Daniels cry, I mean, I wish you would have,

110
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 1: but he didn't say there was a guy sitting on

111
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: his knee. You know, his black leg was. It wasn't

112
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,840
Speaker 1: a great throwing posture. So I'm just talking about that.

113
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,279
Speaker 1: You're finding the separation he gets on that play because

114
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 1: if you just want him to that's what he wanted to.

115
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: That's a big body receiver you're gonna have. But go

116
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: up and play like a big boy, you know, and

117
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: and the quarterback is gonna give you a chance, and

118
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: it's gonna be you know, you and the defender. Kenny

119
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 1: staffed guys plenty of times here. But you know that

120
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: if he's not stacked or he's fighting one on one

121
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 1: and you'd like to match up with a smaller corner,

122
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,600
Speaker 1: go ahead and give it to him, right fighting. Um,

123
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: when we talk about separation from receivers there are an

124
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: ideal number of yards. And then the second part of

125
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,239
Speaker 1: the question is is how much of that is based

126
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 1: on timing. So if you're expecting the receiver to have

127
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, three yards of separation, and if the

128
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: timing is off, the stat affected that much. Um. Well,

129
00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: I don't just say in our league, it's hard to create.

130
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 1: You know, when it's man of mac coverage and it's

131
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: press man of mac coverage. It's a little bit different

132
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: in college, where you know, that goes into a whole

133
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: another conversation of evaluating quarterbacks and receivers and you know,

134
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 1: trying to take off every man and man clip that's

135
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,440
Speaker 1: press relative to some of the softer zone, or maybe

136
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:21,400
Speaker 1: there's just better players here. It's it's pretty tight usually. Um.

137
00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 1: Obviously there's some elite route runners that have you know,

138
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: great quickness ability getting out of breaks, and even those

139
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: they're it's not like they're opened by a ton. So

140
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: you know, again, different players get open different Um. You know,

141
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: I had tight end. It was pretty good tight end

142
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: that you know, big body guy that you just throw

143
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: it up to him and he makes plays when they're

144
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: right next to him. Um, and those guys are good

145
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: to have. Each of them are different. Every receiver is different,

146
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 1: every skill guys different, whether it's a back, a tight end, um,

147
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 1: and you have to try to figure out, you know,

148
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 1: as a coaching staff, what their strength. Sorry, and let

149
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,840
Speaker 1: him try to go ahead and do it. On the

150
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,640
Speaker 1: third down play in the red zone with Daniel thrown

151
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: and Kenny was Sake should say Kwanta have chipped that

152
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 1: blitzer on the on the opposite side or no, No,

153
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:14,440
Speaker 1: it's not as responsibility. Um. Are any of these guys

154
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: who are out like Leonard Blake and he's got Are

155
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: any of them do that? Any of them have an

156
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: illness and not an injury? No? I mean they're all

157
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,680
Speaker 1: working back from something here. They'll be some will be

158
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: back sooner than others. And you know there's oh the

159
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,439
Speaker 1: one guy will will get on injuries. One guy that's

160
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:36,959
Speaker 1: gonna be back today, UM's disease. So he'll be out

161
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: there today, which is a good thing. Ricky steals Jon

162
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 1: and we haven't seen him. I mean is he having

163
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: but I mean like he's gonna be back. Um, yeah,

164
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: I mean at some point. I mean again, you guys

165
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 1: know me, I'm not going to give a timetable. UM.

166
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: I think that's whenever they can be back, they'll be back.

167
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: I know they're working, they're rehabbing, and they're in a

168
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 1: training room quite a bit, and whatever there they can do,

169
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 1: we asked them to do, UM, and when they're ready

170
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: to go, we'll put them out there. Do you expect

171
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 1: Tony on the field this week? Probably not? Probably not.

172
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 1: I still I think you'll be rehabbing still. I mean

173
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:18,280
Speaker 1: it could towards the end of the week, but early

174
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,560
Speaker 1: in the week we're not. We're not there yet. Two more, Brian,

175
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: when you talk about your not depth chart, but rep

176
00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: chart back in the spring when you come out of

177
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 1: a first preseason game. I know injuries are one thing,

178
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: but do you elevate guys now going into week two?

179
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: Guys you want to see more reps or more with

180
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: the ones or twos that kind of them a right.

181
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,280
Speaker 1: I think what we try to do, UM, if people

182
00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: are doing a good job at practice, UM, and they're

183
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 1: doing a good job in the meeting rooms and they

184
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: deserve a chance to compete, we put them in there. UM.

185
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 1: I said it today. I think there's there's a lot

186
00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 1: of competitions for a lot of spots. And you know

187
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: there's only a few weeks left to to go ahead

188
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: and compete, you know. Um, so we're gonna give We're

189
00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: gonna have multiple people, multiple chances that have that I've

190
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 1: earned it. Um. I think that's important to create on

191
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 1: your team where you know guys that maybe we're again

192
00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: second third, that's that's fine and dandy, But guys are

193
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 1: going out there and and working really hard. They're able

194
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,000
Speaker 1: to stay in the field or make plays. They're good

195
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: in the classroom. You know, if I was a player,

196
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: I'd want an opportunity to to play. So we're gonna

197
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,520
Speaker 1: mix them. We've been mixing them up art like that's

198
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:41,599
Speaker 1: why when you guys asked me about a second or

199
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 1: a third, like, we've been mixing them up, and we're

200
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:46,199
Speaker 1: gonna mix them up some more to create as much

201
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:50,480
Speaker 1: competition as we can. No more. Does that extend in

202
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,120
Speaker 1: the game. Let's say you see a guy on a

203
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 1: certain rep do something well, and you're all right, I

204
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: kind of want to keep him out there while he's

205
00:10:55,760 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: kind of hot right now. Yeah, yeah, I think so. Yeah.

206
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:04,959
Speaker 1: Um again, you're always I think what you know the

207
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 1: players is if they're out there doing the right thing,

208
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: and they're busting their tail and they're producing um and

209
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,160
Speaker 1: it may not just be a catcher you see a tackle,

210
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: but doing the right thing when they're supposed to do it,

211
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: and they're showing dependability and intelligence, and I think you

212
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 1: try to give them opportunity. I mean, that's where we're at.

213
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: We're we're gonna give as many people an opportunity to

214
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 1: compete and show what they can do, and you know,

215
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: figure out what's best for our team
