But that's really not how 49 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,480 Speaker 1: good players see it, right. They like to be pushed. 50 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 1: Yeah that's football football.

What do you 58 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 1: anticipate your robbing your versatile guy? Everybody knows that. Do 59 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:25,640 Speaker 1: you anticipate using that versatility? Oh? Most definitely. Um. I 60 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 1: think that's how I eat the best. When you know 61 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 1: I'm around everywhere and you know they got me doing 62 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,919 Speaker 1: things that other people don't do it that's how I eat. 63 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 1: You know. I like to get the botto my hands click. So, 64 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: I mean, most definitely gonna. You haven't stopped smiling since 65 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: you started talking about this. I'm inside, I'm telling you 66 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,360 Speaker 1: the lights of back on. I feel great, Like I 67 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: haven't felt this in a while. So that's physically mentally 68 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: everything physically, mainly physically, but mentally a lot better than 69 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: last year. So you haven't felt physically really right since 70 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: sophomore year. Sophomore Okay, the sky is the limit, all right, 71 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: I'm trying to go past the sky. Tell me about 72 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: this offense. Uh, what do you like about it? What 73 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: are you excited about? Um? I like the offense, um, 74 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: mainly because you know, it's it's it's concepts where like, um, 75 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: you know, I want to say, it's kind of like 76 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say, it's kind of like college, but it's 77 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: just you know, we're gonna get this guy open and 78 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: we're going to him type of thing. And it's and 79 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: it's just crazy, crazy like schemed up. And UM, I'm 80 00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: liking it. It's just exciting because the play is what 81 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like, it's just so many you know, chances 82 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 1: and opportunities. Uh, and you know, we just gotta make 83 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 1: the best up puts players in position to make plays. 84 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:51,559 Speaker 1: But if you're a playmaker, you're gonna excel. Um. Obvious question. 85 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: Can't ask an offensive player these days we are talking 86 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: about Trevor Lawrence impression so far. Uh with the excitement 87 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: level of in this kid, kid, I guess you're at 88 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 1: the same age. But you know, I mean you know 89 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,560 Speaker 1: that when they say don't believe the hype, well with him, 90 00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 1: you you want to believe the hype. You know, he 91 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,080 Speaker 1: has a great arm, he's smart, um, and he always 92 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: trying to get better. I mean I haven't seen some 93 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: crazy passes and practice already. I mean, like guys, I 94 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: mean he's thrown the ball before guys out the route 95 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: and like the way he's just that zimp he got 96 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 1: on the bars is crazy. And the anticipation you have 97 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 1: talked about, that's everything in this level, right. You can't 98 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: you can't succeed as a quarterback or a receiver unless 99 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks are doing that exactly. Got you? Uh, tell 100 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 1: me about the receiving room. It seems like there is 101 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: a chemistry developing you Jones, d J charkvious, the guys 102 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: people talking about but overall, tell me about that room. 103 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 1: How excited you guys? Um, Slowly but surely it's getting 104 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 1: stronger and stronger. I can tell you that, Um. You know, 105 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 1: we all we all like each other. We all like 106 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: the way each other work. You know, we all bring 107 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: something different to the table, and at the end of 108 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 1: the day, we all want to win. So when I 109 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: talked to Marvin Jones a few weeks ago, this is 110 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: a veteran, and he was saying, you know, I gotta 111 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: get used to a little bit to sign Jay Law 112 00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: because he's grinding down on the on the basics, the fundamentals. 113 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 1: I assume for a young receiver, that's what you want. 114 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 1: I'm here to work. I'm I'm just leaving at that. 115 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm here to work. I'm here to work. I want 116 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: to do whatever I gotta do, whatever they want me 117 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: to do. Good overall. Just tell me about the offseason program. 118 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: Everybody's talking about every's talking about the energy, the culture. 119 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: Uh put that into words for me, if you will. 120 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: What are you feeling from as a team, the excitement 121 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: level with new this new staff, this new direction. Well 122 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,240 Speaker 1: when you when you come in every day and you like, say, 123 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 1: stack these days and you know they're great days and 124 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 1: they weren't bad days. At some point, you know, you 125 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: get this confidence and that's what he wants us to have. 126 00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: And he want everyone's team that had that confidence and 127 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 1: when everybody had a confidence and you also he also 128 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: wants us as a team and had that bond. And 129 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: I feel like if a team has a bond as 130 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 1: a whole, it's hard to be the team that plays 131 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: each other. And then you know just the energy the 132 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: energy comes from that. If I know my my guy 133 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 1: next to me is playing for me and giving this all. 134 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we're gonna have energy all day.
