1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Doing well, doing well. You came here. 2 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 2: You've been to so many different places, and you called 3 00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 2: it crazy when we talk to you back in late July. 4 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:11,719 Speaker 2: You wanted to kind of immerse yourself in this system 5 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 2: with Kyle and guy. You've been in it for like 6 00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 2: a whole year, and you're going to start this game 7 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 2: in cares how far you think you've come within the 8 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 2: system and you feel like a different guy. 9 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 1: I don't feel like a different guy. But it's been 10 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: good to be in one place for the year. For sure. 11 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,560 Speaker 1: I'll be around the same terminology, same teammates, same coaches, 12 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: and just get consistent coaching it within one scheme. So 13 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: I've enjoyed that. I'm enjoyed learning Kyle scheme, watching Brock 14 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: play really well within the scheme. I know our record 15 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: isn't really indicative of our goals for the season, of course, 16 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: but it's been good. It's been good to be around 17 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: the guys. Obviously, be around scheme has been very successful 18 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: and is at several other places throughout the NFL. So 19 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: I've enjoyed the year. 20 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 3: There's so many offenses around the league that are similar 21 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 3: to this one. Now, do you see this game as 22 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 3: sort of an audition for pre agency in March, that 23 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 3: you can kind of show these other teams that you 24 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 3: could run this system really well. 25 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 1: Per se. Yeah, I think anytime you get a chance 26 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: to get on the field and play, right like, it's 27 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: always an audition not only for the team that you're on, 28 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 1: but for the other thirty one teams, especially knowing my 29 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 1: contract situation and being free agent in March, so it's 30 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: opportunity to go watch show what I can do here's 31 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,759 Speaker 1: a forty nine er in this scheme, as well as 32 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: for other opportunities. So I kind of let free agency 33 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,639 Speaker 1: all that stuff work itself out when that time comes. 34 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: But I'm just excited for the opportunity to get on 35 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,480 Speaker 1: the field and play. We all work to have this 36 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: opportunity to play at the end of the day, and 37 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,559 Speaker 1: it's obviously fun to be a part of a great 38 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 1: room and be supportive of Brock throughout the season. But 39 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: to get a chance to get your number called and 40 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:42,760 Speaker 1: go out there and play and show what you can 41 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: do is something that you never take for granted in 42 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: this league, whether you play quarterback, receiver, defense, no matter what, 43 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: you can't take the opportunity for granted. So I'm I'm 44 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: excited to get out there, play, compete, build a lot 45 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: of camaraderie with several guys, a lot of guys throughout 46 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 1: the locker room. So to be able to step into 47 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: that huddle and lead that group of men and our 48 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: last opportunity on Sunday will be a lot of fun. 49 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: Josh, would you like to come back? Would you like 50 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 2: to come back here next year? And what have you 51 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 2: learned from Purdy watching him prepare this year? 52 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, free agency will be free agency, so we'll let 53 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: that handle itself. But what I've learned from Brock is 54 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 1: just being able to be in command of the huddle, 55 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,239 Speaker 1: like we do a lot on offense right, and a 56 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 1: lot is on the quarterback shoulders from Reid's progressions sites 57 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: when we're throwing hot, trying to play the game within 58 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: the game of knowing what the defense is doing, and 59 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: to watch how he prepares and how he segments it 60 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: and how he sequences his approach to each play, whether 61 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 1: it's just in the run game with calling two or 62 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:40,959 Speaker 1: three plays at the line of scrimmage, or in the 63 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: pass game, betting the ball to the right receiver based 64 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: on different and crazy looks that we get every week. 65 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: It's been very impressive to watch and so learning that 66 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: scene that from him, hopefully we'll be able to show 67 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 1: a little bit what I can do as well on Sunday. 68 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: From we've learned from Brock throughout the year. 69 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 3: How much does. 70 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 2: Having Juwan Jennings on the roster Ian, I know you've 71 00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 2: worked out with Hi during the offseason. How much does 72 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 2: he being on the roster help your transition? 73 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: Uh, it's been good. It's been good. Familiar face was 74 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 1: always great. I've I've met a lot of the dudes 75 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 1: in the locker room though just throughout my time in 76 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: the league. There are several free agents obviously signed this 77 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: year as we all know. So I've met a lot 78 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: of guys throughout my time in the NFL and happened 79 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 1: to be obviously on the same team this year. Wh's 80 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: been cool to interact with guys I've watched seem from 81 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: Afar or cross pass with over the offseason, and then 82 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: specifically Juwan. It's really cool. I thought I called him. 83 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: I think it was after the Seahawk game. We had 84 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: a really good game, was playing X first name at X. 85 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: I really stepped into that role of being like the 86 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: guy the go to receiver and just watching him mature 87 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: from what he was at Tennessee. Like he came in 88 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: as a quarterback. You know, it's kind of like my 89 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: understudy to be the next quarterback at Tennessee. And watching 90 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: him make plays on Sundays at receiver and really growing 91 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: growing to the role of I'm Juwan Jennings and number 92 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: one receiver in NFL has been really cool. And it's 93 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: been great to obviously be around him in the locker 94 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: room from an interpersonal relationship, but I think it's been 95 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: really cool to watch who he's become as a football player. 96 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: I'm excited to watch his career from here on out. Yeah, 97 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: it'll be nice. I'll be nice. I know he's gonna 98 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 1: put some pressure on me for sure, so hopefully we 99 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: can take care of that early in the game. But yeah, definitely, 100 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 1: I know that's a big milestone for him. He's putting 101 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 1: a lot of work, so we won't force feed him 102 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: the ball, but yeah, we want him to get there 103 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 1: for sure. 104 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:33,600 Speaker 2: You put a lot of football last year. You kind 105 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 2: of references, but how hard is it to go from 106 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 2: that you watching? 107 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's weird, It definitely is weird. It's definitely slower 108 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: paced of a year. You know, for me personally, it's 109 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: been it's been just interesting, just kind of by battling 110 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: that that dynamic of knowing that you can be out 111 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: there right and you've gone on you played really good football, 112 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: and also recognizing the situation and using it as a 113 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: learning opportunity. So mentally, I've learned a ton of a 114 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: lot about pace. I said it before I got my 115 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,839 Speaker 1: first opportunity to play that the league. I taught me 116 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: a ton about patience and just perseverance and mental toughness 117 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 1: through it all because my first time not starting was 118 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: when I got to the NFL, So definitely was an adjustment. 119 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: But being hearing, I think just being around the guys, 120 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: being around the room that we have the coaching staff 121 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: has hasn't made it difficult to be in that position, 122 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: and it has made me enjoy wanting to learn and 123 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 1: interact with them. But yeah, it's been a different dynamic 124 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 1: for me personally, So just navigating that each year is 125 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: really a lifetime of his own, especially in the quarterback position, 126 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 1: So you just you know, take the challenges, take the 127 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: opportunities that each year brings you. You try to make 128 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: the most of every opportunity. You get to go out 129 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: on the field and execute and play at a high level, 130 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: and hopefully you're setting yourself up, you know, to be 131 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 1: a starter and be a guy that some organization can 132 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: rely on week in and week out. That's our ultimate 133 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: goal every single time, at least I step on the field. 134 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 3: What are you hoping to showcase on Sunday, whether it's 135 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 3: for the forty nine or any other thirty one other teams? 136 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 2: Is it the processing, mental, physical? I mean we got 137 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 2: to see it a little bit against the Lions. 138 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: You had a good body of work last year, but 139 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: you know there might still be some questions. 140 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 3: Is this the guy who could lead our franchise? I don't. 141 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 1: I don't think I'm trying to like prove anything without 142 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: a doubt, you know, I just want to go and 143 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: play good football, like I've worked hard in the offseason, 144 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: you know, preparing for the opportunities I got in the preseason, 145 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: opportunities in camp, and obviously if my number were to 146 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 1: be called, to be ready at a drop of a 147 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: hat anytime to go in and execute and play a 148 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: high level. Showed it last week, but now to have 149 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: a full week of preparation, a full week of practice 150 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 1: and reps totally different. So wanting to go out and 151 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: play good football. 152 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 3: Man. 153 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: Every time you stop on the field, you play to win. 154 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:42,480 Speaker 1: So I want to go out, compete, play at a 155 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: high level, and get a dub. Send us out on 156 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: the right note for this season, and then we'll let 157 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: the offseason take care of itself. 158 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 3: Donald was in your sam Donald was in your position 159 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 3: last year. Today he was voted to the Pro Bowl. 160 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 3: I mean, have you taken note of sort of the 161 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 3: path that he took to Minnesota into the promo? 162 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: For sure? I mean, no one can not see the 163 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: story and the success that he's had. Obviously, I was 164 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 1: in that building in Minnesota last year, so I know 165 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: how so special that team is and that building is, 166 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: and it's been really cool to watch him step in 167 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: and take advantage of that opportunity to lead those guys. 168 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: And obviously they'll make a really cool playoff run. We'll 169 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: be watching. But quite frankly, you know, I'm kind of 170 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: focused on myself, this team, and more importantly, like my 171 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: journey and maturation throughout my time as an NFL quarterback. 172 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: So yeah, you take take note of those stories and 173 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 1: those opportunities, But at the end of the day, Sam 174 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: got an opportunity, took advantage of it right, And I 175 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: think that's just a testament to him, obviously his work 176 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 1: ethic of being prepared for the opportunity. And it's a 177 00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: lesson for every player in the NFL that no matter 178 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: what the opportunity is, how big or small it may 179 00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: seem or be, like, if you go out there, you 180 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: take advantage of the opportunity, you'll be able to be 181 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: the player that you you dreamed about being in the NFL. 182 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: And so that's why I noticed, like opportunity to play, 183 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 1: you go out, you play well, you play to the 184 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: best of your ability, you try to lead your team 185 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 1: to a victory, and everything else will work itself out 186 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: after that.
