00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 1: We got a lot of news to get to, so

6
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: let's get to it right now. Welcome inside with the

7
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: insiders alongside Ian Rappaport, Judy Matista, and Mike Carrafollo.

Speaker 1: season opener, just.

11
00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 2: Nine days away from the Hall of Fame game.

12
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 1: That's how close you are to watching live football on

13
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 1: TV or in person. We will get to as many

14
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: of those twenty six teams reporting to training camp as

15
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: we possibly can over the next sixty minutes. But let's

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: start with one team that hit the practice field were

17
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 1: the first time today. That is the Dallas Cowboys in

18
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: their usual training camp home of Oxnard, California.

19
00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 2: A little bit of a new look.

20
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,479
Speaker 1: Brian Schottenheimer the visors on backward good way to make

21
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: sure that your neck does not end up getting burnt.

22
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,440
Speaker 2: That is the least of his concerns.

23
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 1: A lot of other moving parts for the Cowboys, and

24
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 1: for more on that, let's head out to Oxnard right

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,040
Speaker 1: now with our Jane Slater. Jane, the story on Monday

26
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: was Jerry Jones saying a lot of things, which Jerry

27
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,760
Speaker 1: tends to do the Monday of training camp week. This

28
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:34,559
Speaker 1: day you had a couple of players get a chance

29
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:35,839
Speaker 1: to respond. What'd you learn?

30
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, Jerry Jones had a lot to say about both

31
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 3: Micah Parsons and trey Von Diggs, both here for day

32
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 3: one of practice, albeit in different roles. Let's start with Diggs.

33
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: He starts to see the camp off rather on the

34
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 3: pup list. Remember he sustained yet another injury to that

35
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 3: left last season and he is rehabbing it. As for Parsons,

36
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 3: he wants that contract extension, but Brian Schottenheimer's head coach,

37
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 3: because says that he will do quote different versions of participation.

38
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 3: I thought it important as they were coming off the

39
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 3: field to day to get in their own words where

40
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 3: things stand with the owner and the front office.

41
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,359
Speaker 4: Because it's not like I'm not putting the work in

42
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 4: doing everything I was supposed to do. Of course, they

43
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,080
Speaker 4: do a great job here, but you know, I just

44
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,320
Speaker 4: thought it was for my best interest to you knows

45
00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 4: where else to rehab for my off season, but it's unfortunate.

46
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 4: You know, By the end of the day, hopefully I'll

47
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 4: make it back.

48
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 3: Where are you in your reheab process.

49
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 4: I feel real good. I'm doing everything so I'm supposed

50
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 4: to do. I feel real good. I'm ahead of schedule.

51
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 4: So yeah, I feel good.

52
00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 3: Micah. Good to see you out here. Why was it

53
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 3: a choice for you to be I would are you

54
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 3: a holding at this point or are you just being

55
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 3: mindful of your body?

56
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 5: Just being mindful obviously, just want to get the body

57
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 5: going the right way, the way I wanted to. But

58
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,639
Speaker 5: you know, I see what d log going. Like I said,

59
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 5: I just felt like it was my turn, my turn

60
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,120
Speaker 5: and lead, and it's hard to do that from the crib.

61
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 5: So I want to be here with the guys, show

62
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,800
Speaker 5: them that I care. I want to be here win championship.

63
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 5: So that's why I'm here.

64
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 3: You know, I know you and Jerry have a pretty

65
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 3: close relationship, and I know you have respect for each other.

66
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 3: But stuff gets said in the media. Have you had

67
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 3: a conversation with him after yesterday's presser?

68
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 5: No, But I'm I'm gonna talk to him. You know,

69
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 5: I just thought as a whole, like, you know, everyone's

70
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 5: situation is differently, you know what I mean. At the

71
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 5: end of the day, Like, I'm here for my teammates,

72
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,480
Speaker 5: you know, I'm not here to please another grown man.

73
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 6: I'm here for them.

74
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 7: You know.

75
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 5: I want to be here with Trey, watching rehab, watching

Speaker 5: these guys. I'm not here for him, you know. So

79
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 5: I think, you know, I think, end of the day,

00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 5: he's on the field with us. You know, we're on

81

Speaker 5: the field playing the games and things like that. So

82
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,480
Speaker 5: I'm gonna just control my teammates, keep boosting it and uh,

83
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 5: you know, we're just gonna keep playing together.

84
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 3: Last question for you guys. Energy is a word we're

85
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 3: using a lot out here. Do you guys feel it

86
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:02,400
Speaker 3: with this coaching staff.

87
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 4: Definitely, it's a lot of energy. I love the atmosphere.

88
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 4: Everyone's competing, everyone's happy, everyone's in a good mood. Everyone's smiling,

89
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 4: and were ready to get this show on the road.

90
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 3: And you want to be here, of course.

91
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 4: Of course I do.

92
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, I need my second here, man.

93
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 2: I need them.

94
00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 5: I'm whatever he owned. If they don't want me to here,

95
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 5: they don't want me here, I'll go about my business.

96
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,520
Speaker 5: I understand the nature of the business. Like I said,

97
00:04:25,760 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 5: as long as I'm getting an under contract, I'm gonna

98
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 5: do what I can do to perform at the highest level.

99
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 5: But if this is, then this is then you know,

100
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,040
Speaker 5: there's there's same way to Jones, Jerry Jones and Stephen

101
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 5: Jones and ever Jerry Jones take care of their family.

102
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,720
Speaker 5: It's the same way I need to take care of

103
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 5: my family, you know what I mean.

104
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 8: I got my own three.

105
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 5: Kids of my own, So we all need to take

106
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 5: care of our own family at the end of the day.

107
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 3: And as we wait, it's our understanding according to Bikah

108
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,080
Speaker 3: that his agent has reached out to Jerry Jones. He's

109
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 3: just waiting for a callback.

110
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: Cowboys Eagles forty four days away September fourth, in Philadelphia,

111
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: Should I repeat, should have answers on some of these

112
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 1: items before we get there, Jane, thank you very much.

113
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 2: More from you. A little bit later on in the show,

114
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 2: Cowboys don't only have.

115
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,360
Speaker 1: To hunt down the Eagles, they got to come after

116
00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: the commanders. One of the surprise teams in twenty twenty

117
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: four an NFC Championship game appearance.

118
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 2: Looking to build on that would certainly help.

119
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 1: If spotted within this montage was Terry mclaurino wants a

120
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 1: new contract. Here's what GM Adam Peters had to say

121
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:27,920
Speaker 1: about his top wide receiver.

122
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, without a doubt.

123
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 9: I think everybody in this building values Terry very much,

124
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 9: and we knew that coming in, and we knew that

125
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 9: even more after spending a year with him. In terms

126
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 9: of where we're at, We've had conversations recently, and we'll

127
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,280
Speaker 9: look to have some more conversations, and we're going to

128
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 9: do everything we can in order to get a deal done.

129
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,520
Speaker 1: So the commanders obviously have known ian about this situation

130
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: for quite some time.

131
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 2: Here.

132
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: If you're Terry McLaurin, you're saying the deal I did

133
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: several years ago now has been out pace by the market.

134
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: I've been healthy, I've been productive, Give me my money.

135
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: How does this play out from here? At a time

136
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: the Terry McLaurin, at least at the start off camp

137
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: here is staying away.

138
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 6: First the news part.

139
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 10: Terry McLaurin was not present with his teammates during today's

140
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 10: conditioning test, setting the stage for unless there is some

141
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 10: sort of contractual breakthrough over the next twenty four hours.

142
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 10: A holdout and holdouts have been increasingly rare over the

143
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 10: last several years. Hold Ins where a player deals with

144
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,160
Speaker 10: a minor injury while not practicing waiting for his deal

145
00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 10: to get done, that's been more commonplace. But a true holdout,

146
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,240
Speaker 10: where a player is subject to fines, those have been rare.

147
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 10: But that is how Terry McLaurin is showing these commanders

148
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 10: that he is not happy, that he does not feel

149
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 10: good about where things are, and not only does he

150
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:50,679
Speaker 10: want a new deal, but he wants a lot of money.

151
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 10: And you're right, the three year, sixty eight million dollar

152
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 10: deal that hasn't making almost twenty million dollars this year

153
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 10: has been out paced. My understanding is he wants more

154
00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 10: than thirty It's not a disagreement over whether he deserves

155
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:07,719
Speaker 10: more money, it's a disagreement over how much. And certainly

156
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 10: they are not there yet to term McLaurin staying away, and.

157
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: There are still buttons. The term McLaurin could push. You

158
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: could always request the trade. You could show up and

159
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: try to make people uncomfortable. Brandon Ayuk tried all those

160
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: things with the forty nine Ers last fall and ultimately

161
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 1: ended up staying in San Francisco. He also suffered a

162
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: significant injury, which was kind of the story of Rock

163
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: Party season. No Christian McCaffrey, no wide receivers. It was

164
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: a tough year all around for the forty nine ers.

165
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: Here we are, Mike a year later, while there's not

166
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: a contracts squabble for San Francisco, there's real questions again

167
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: about who party's gonna be thrown to.

168
00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,239
Speaker 11: Yeah, it was an Aco NCL injury for Brandon Ayuk

169
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 11: and John Lynch today saying that he's nowhere close to

170
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 11: having a concrete timeline for his return. I think a

171
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 11: lot of folks looked at that and said, whoa, he's

172
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 11: that far away, And Linz said, no, we are encouraged

173
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 11: by his progress. But my understanding is now that he's

174
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 11: in the building, now they're going to see him every

175
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 11: day at training camp, how he is rehabbing, then they'll

176
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 11: understand kind of sort of where he is at this point.

177
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 11: But it is looking at this point like you can't

178
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 11: rule out week one for Brandon Ayuk, but it would

179
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 11: be an uphill battle for him to get to that point,

180
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 11: because if you don't have that concrete timeline, there's really

181
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 11: no ramp up period to get himself into game shape.

182
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 11: So it seems like the four nat are going to

183
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 11: begin the season without Ayuk. But again, there is some

184
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 11: good signs here with regard to his rehab and his

185
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,560
Speaker 11: recovery and the possibility.

186
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 8: Of him being back at least early in the season.

187
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 11: If he starts on the pup list, he'll be ineligible

188
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 11: for the first four weeks.

189
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 8: The good news.

190
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 11: Ricky Piersall had a hamstring injury beginning on puff, but

191
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 11: the hope is that he is back to action relatively so.

192
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanaan once again beginning training camp wondering who he's

193
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 1: drawing a place to get open another familiar storyline in

194
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: the NFC West, Matthew Stafford once again dealing with injury

195
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 1: in the early portion of camp. It did not, in

196
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 1: fact occur when he was rear ended by Pooka Nakula

197
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: who I had to show up on a go kart

198
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: right there. Stafford, though, is dealing with back Sorenis Judy,

199
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,640
Speaker 1: which would seem like a minor type of a thing here,

200
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 1: but we also know one thing with Stafford, he'll play

201
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: through things, but he also deals with a lot. What

202
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: do you make of Sean mcfay say today that at

203
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 1: least for the first five days or so of camp

204
00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,599
Speaker 1: we may not see a whole lot of Matthew Stafford.

205
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 2: On the field.

206
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 12: Well, I thought it was important that McVeigh was willing

207
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 12: to put the five day timeline on it. That suggested

208
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 12: that they do not believe this is very serious and

209
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,240
Speaker 12: something that is going to carry deep into training camp.

210
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 12: We will see if that's accurate, but I think at

211
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 12: least initially, it seems like they believe this is a

212
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 12: minor nuisance. Having said that it's a starting quarterback, a

213
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:47,880
Speaker 12: thirty seven year old starting quarterback with BACKSRNAS, so certainly

214
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 12: at the very least that demand's monitoring. They did get

215
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 12: some good news though, running back Karen Williams, who is

216
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 12: looking for a new contract. He is in the final

217
00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 12: year of his rookie deal, so is at camp and

218
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,719
Speaker 12: plans to participate. He said, I love this, this is

219
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 12: what I do, so he plans to be part of

220
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 12: training camp. That is the good news for the Rams.

221
00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 12: You have really high hopes, really positive feelings coming out

222
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,160
Speaker 12: of an offseason in which they added Davante Adams to

223
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 12: pair with Kouka and Aakubu, who you saw coming in

224
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 12: on that go kart. They went unexpectedly far last year,

225
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 12: and they pushed the Eagles further than anybody did in

226
00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,319
Speaker 12: the playoffs last season. So certainly this is a team

227
00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 12: on an upward trajectory, which is why Matthew Stafford's back

228
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:32,760
Speaker 12: is going to be something we are going to be

229
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 12: watching very closely.

230
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,520
Speaker 1: The Bills also reporting today amidst at least some level

231
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 1: of uncertainty about their star running back James Cook, who

232
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: had twenty one touchdowns including the playoffs last season, helping

233
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 1: out the league MVP Josh Allen in a lot of ways,

234
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 1: is on hand as the Bills report to training camp

235
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 1: here Ian, but James Cook still expects to get paid.

236
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: He's doing about five point three million dollars this year.

237
00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: What do you make of the timeline of a potential

238
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: James Cook extension sometime in camp here?

239
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 10: Well, first of all, this is the same James Cook

240
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 10: that went basically public last year saying he wants fifteen

241
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 10: million dollars, which would put him close to the top

242
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,320
Speaker 10: of the running back market. And what the Bills did

243
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 10: in response to that, and something the Bills we're trying

244
00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:19,760
Speaker 10: to do anyway, was basically take care of every other

245
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,680
Speaker 10: young player that they wanted to sign. And it has

246
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 10: been unbelievably productive offseason for the Buffalo Bills, right.

247
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 6: I mean they have locked up Greg Russeau and Christian.

248
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,760
Speaker 10: Benford, and I mean on and on defensive players who

249
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,320
Speaker 10: have been really helpful to them to kind of build

250
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 10: this to build this roster, just not James Cook yet,

251
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 10: which really does set the stage for a contract negotiation

252
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,400
Speaker 10: that either should go down to the wire toward the

253
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 10: start of the season or put him on path to

254
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 10: either hit free agency next year or get the franchise tag.

255
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 10: There's gonna be a lot of contractual talks surrounding James Cook,

256
00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:58,920
Speaker 10: but most importantly on the field, as he has emerged

257
00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 10: as an absolute essential weapon for the Buffalo Bills.

258
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 1: Jonathan Taylor went through a similar situation with the Colts

259
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago.

260
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 2: Here one of the top backs in the NFL.

261
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: But who exactly is going to be the quarterback for

262
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 1: those Indianapolis Colts. They have Daniel Jones, of course, who

263
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 1: they signed in free agency former Giant starter finished up

264
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: last season with the Vikings. They've also got Anthony Richardson,

265
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 1: who once again dealt with an injury to his throwing shoulder.

266
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,400
Speaker 2: Back in the spring. But it sounds like GM Chris.

267
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:33,559
Speaker 1: Ballard is optimistic about Richardson's chances for competing in camp.

268
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,640
Speaker 13: All right, so Anthony is good to go. He's been

269
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 13: throwing for about three weeks now. He's really uped his volume.

270
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:46,000
Speaker 13: First couple of weeks. Will probably limit some volume, but

271
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:50,319
Speaker 13: no real restrictions other than volume restrictions, and that's something

272
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 13: we'll keep. You know, we have a four day stretch

273
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,440
Speaker 13: where we're practicing four days in a row, So this

274
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 13: first week you could see in day two or three

275
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,200
Speaker 13: a little bit of volume. We reduced his volume, but

276
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:00,559
Speaker 13: other than that, good to go.

277
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 1: It was not that long ago, Mike, that Anthony richardshow

278
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,959
Speaker 1: was the number four overall pick in the NFL draft

279
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,160
Speaker 1: At this point, just based on availability alone, you'd have

280
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: to say the edge that this goes to Daniel Jones

281
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:14,679
Speaker 1: in that competition.

282
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 2: What say you?

283
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 11: Daniel Jones got that advantage there, Tom In the spring,

284
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 11: the late spring when the Colts shuts down shut down,

285
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:25,840
Speaker 11: Anthony Richardson for a mini camp, so they gave Jones

286
00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,960
Speaker 11: a chance to make a final first impression there during

287
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,240
Speaker 11: the spring, and it seems like it was a good one.

288
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 11: I know that there's a lot of optimism when it

289
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 11: comes to Daniel Jones' ability to reset now with the

290
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 11: Indianapolis Colts. Things did not end very well with the

291
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:40,720
Speaker 11: Giants and that stint with the Vikings that was kind

292
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 11: of weird. He never really saw the field there. So

293
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,000
Speaker 11: now he's got a clearer path to a starting job.

294
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,679
Speaker 11: He's got to edge out Anthony Richardson from an availability standpoint,

295
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,480
Speaker 11: You're right, the edge goes to Jones because at least

296
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,000
Speaker 11: there is going to be a little bit of a

297
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 11: restriction or at least a watch on Richardson to start

298
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 11: training camp. But if he's healthy, he's got to show

299
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,560
Speaker 11: won the wow plays. We know they're there.

300
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 8: We've seen them.

301
00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 11: Remember last week or last year. Excuse me in Week one,

302
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 11: the wild play that he made early on. But it's

303
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,960
Speaker 11: got to be more from a consistency standpoint, because you

304
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 11: know you're going to get more consistency from Jones when

305
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 11: it comes to this battle.

306
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: And the wild plays have often turned into owl plays

307
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: so far for Anthony Richardson, a player who certainly has,

308
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: as you said, Mike, all the physical ability, but has

309
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: not yet been able to stay healthy enough to actually

310
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: be able to mount those reps. Joe Burrow has dealt

311
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 1: with his fair share of training camp injuries in the

312
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: past as well, but fully healthy, looking good in whatever

313
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 1: he's wearing right there. His guy knows better than I do.

314
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 1: A little tidy, how about that from Joe Burrow. He's

315
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 1: on hand in Cincinnati, not there, not even in the state.

316
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 1: Trey Hendrickson, who posted this very early this morning amidst

317
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: ongoing contract talks judy between the Bengals and Hendrickson, who's

318
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 1: due sixteen million dollars this season, He's made clear he's

319
00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,560
Speaker 1: not going to play for that. The those have offered

320
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: him a raise, they've offered him an extension, but the

321
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: structure is not there and there's really no at this point.

322
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:10,360
Speaker 12: And in sight, yeah, that was maybe a bit of

323
00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 12: a reality check today after some optimism from owner Mike

324
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,120
Speaker 12: Brown yesterday that the deal would get done with Trey Hendrickson,

325
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 12: maybe not quite so fast. And that's certainly a down

326
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,280
Speaker 12: note for a team that has focused the entire offseason

327
00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:26,040
Speaker 12: on figuring out how to get out to faster starts.

328
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 12: They paid a lot of money to keep most of

329
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 12: their offense intact. They didn't do much for the defense.

330
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 12: They changed defensive coordinators, and now they've got the Trey

331
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 12: Hendrickson and Schmer Stewart contract situations still out there hanging

332
00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,880
Speaker 12: over them. The good news for them, Joe Burrow comes

333
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,400
Speaker 12: into training camp healthy for the first time in a

334
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,640
Speaker 12: long time. That is a good first step toward getting

335
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 12: off to a fast start, but certainly getting these contract

336
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 12: situations squared away, and they hope getting both guys into

337
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 12: camp would certainly go a long way toward a faster start.

338
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 2: We've got tons more to come on the show. Twenty

339
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 2: other teams we haven't even mentioned.

340
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 1: Yet also reported to training camp earlier today, including the Dolphins.

341
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 1: Tyreek Kill says he's healthy, he's got some new perspective,

342
00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 1: he's got thoughts on one of our reporters physiques.

343
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:15,040
Speaker 2: You do not want to miss it.

344
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 1: The Dolphins one of twenty six teams to report to

345
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 1: training camps around the NFL today, which means.

346
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 2: You guessed it.

347
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,840
Speaker 1: A lot of slow motion entry shots for two of

348
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: Toungola and others. Some new faces and old faces in

349
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: Miami where Tyreek Kill once again is back.

350
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 14: Football is all about winning, winning games, you know, being

351
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 14: there for your team and those big moments, you know,

352
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,000
Speaker 14: those crucial downs like third down and he's being available

353
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 14: man for my team man two thousand. I feel like

354
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 14: that's just a personal goal that I would like for myself.

355
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:59,440
Speaker 14: But I feel like the even bigger goal for myself

356
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 14: and then I'll so for this team is just to

357
00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 14: win games, you know, win playoff games, and you know,

358
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 14: continue to build from now.

359
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 7: I expect to bring playmaking ability. There's a lot of

360
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,879
Speaker 7: guys on this team that can do amazing things with

361
00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:12,879
Speaker 7: the ball. I'm excited to just be a part of

362
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,639
Speaker 7: that group. I feel like everything you probably experience, except

363
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:18,879
Speaker 7: probably winning the Super Bowl, is something that I've gone through.

364
00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 7: Where there's been drafted, late course, special teams, guys suspended

365
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 7: from the league, practice squad starter pro Bowler traded a

366
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 7: couple of times like there are guys that are going

367
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,640
Speaker 7: through situations and going through things that they need somebody

368
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 7: to lean on talk to. I feel like I could

369
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 7: be that as well, but most importantly, just somebody that

370
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:36,200
Speaker 7: does their job at a high level.

371
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,760
Speaker 1: Let's bring in our Cameron Wolf who was down there

372
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 1: at Dolphins training camp earlier today. Welcome back to the insiders,

373
00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: Tom Pilaicero and Ian rapport Camp. Let's start with Tyreek

374
00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: who had a lot going on off the field, on

375
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:54,400
Speaker 1: the field, medically and otherwise last year. You hear him

376
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 1: talking there about big goals like two thousand yards, being

377
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: a better leader, knowing him as well as you do,

378
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 1: how you making, what he's saying, and what we can

379
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: expect to see in twenty twenty five.

380
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,240
Speaker 15: Yeah, Tyreek Hill's message all offseason has been one of

381
00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:12,640
Speaker 15: us accountability. He knews how bad he was last year

382
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,720
Speaker 15: with asking I'm out, with saying, you know, leaving the

383
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:18,760
Speaker 15: game in the fourth quarter without coming back in, and

384
00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,720
Speaker 15: so he's showing the level of accountability of I'm going

385
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 15: to be different. And he told us a story in

386
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 15: the press conference today. He said he talked to his

387
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,000
Speaker 15: dad and said, I wonder what it to look like

388
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:31,040
Speaker 15: on the field if I just focused on football and family.

389
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 15: He said, I haven't done that. I haven't given the

390
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,639
Speaker 15: best version of Tyreek Hill my entire career.

391
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:36,800
Speaker 2: I plan to do that.

392
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 15: He's down to one hundred and eighty three pounds fourteen

393
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 15: pounds from when he first got down here to Miami.

394
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 8: He said he's been training.

395
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 15: He said his focus points are being on time, which

396
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 15: was a problem last year, being present, being available, showing

397
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 15: the fullness of his leadership vocally, and as far as

398
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 15: his conditioning after practice.

399
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 6: And he really is getting a little bit motivation from

400
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:57,480
Speaker 6: his kids.

401
00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 2: He said.

402
00:18:57,880 --> 00:18:59,960
Speaker 15: One of his kids, he FaceTime with them last night

403
00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:02,720
Speaker 15: and his mom told him that he told his friend

404
00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,240
Speaker 15: that his dad was not Tyreek Hill, his dad was

405
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,600
Speaker 15: Justin Jefferson because he's a big Justin Jefferson fan. So

406
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 15: he said that gives me extra motivation. My own son says,

407
00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 15: I'm Justin Jefferson's dad. He said, we'll tell Justin Jefferson

408
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,680
Speaker 15: to take you to Disneyland then if he's your dad.

409
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 15: So even Tyreek Hill has his sons wanted to be

410
00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 15: someone else.

411
00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:26,119
Speaker 10: I mean, if Tyreek Hill and Justin Jefferson gonna go

412
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 10: to Disneyland, I think we're gonna need some cameras there

413
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 10: to witness this. Anyway, let's get on to Darren Waller,

414
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,160
Speaker 10: we just heard from just a couple of minutes ago.

415
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 6: Obviously one of.

416
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 10: The more intriguing stories for the Miami Dolphins. Comes out

417
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 10: of retirement to land in South Florida. What do we

418
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 10: expect from Waller in his return to the NFL.

419
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,840
Speaker 15: Yeah, the Dolphins are taking a flyer on Darren Waller here.

420
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 15: He retired from football. He told us today that he's

421
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 15: content until retirement. He said he had decided that football

422
00:19:56,400 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 15: wasn't something at that time that he wanted to pursue.

423
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 15: He didn't have that joy, that spark.

424
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 8: He said.

425
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 15: Over the last few months he's thought about it. He

426
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 15: got some of that joy back, and he said he's committed.

427
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 15: And I asked him about that point, because when he

428
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,400
Speaker 15: left the game, he said he didn't have that commitment.

429
00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 15: He said, he knows this is a commitment.

430
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 8: Smith to February.

431
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 15: He expects to make a huge impact.

432
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:16,879
Speaker 8: On the field.

433
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:18,760
Speaker 15: He said, what a way for me to try to

434
00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,560
Speaker 15: end out my final chapter of my career the way

435
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 15: I wanted to be. The Dolphins didn't invest a lot

436
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,560
Speaker 15: of money in this tight end, and so really this

437
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 15: is a situation where if they can get him to

438
00:20:28,840 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 15: do a fraction of production that John Eus Smith, who

439
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 15: they traded away to Pittsburgh last year, would be able

440
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 15: to get some of those reps that tyreek Hill and

441
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 15: jal and Waddell don't have. It's across the middle of

442
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 15: the field. They'd be very happy. One key thing for

443
00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 15: Darren Waller he reunites with Frank Smith, who was his

444
00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 15: guy with the Raiders. He said he was a guy

445
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,320
Speaker 15: who helped me when I decided I wanted to be sober.

446
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 15: He asked me as a man, what do I need

447
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 15: in my sobriety journey? And he said, I will never

448
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,880
Speaker 15: forget that. He also got rave reviews from Alec Ingle,

449
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 15: who's a captain and full back on this team.

450
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 8: They're excited about what he can do.

451
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 15: Obviously a lot of eyeballs on what his mindset is like,

452
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 15: but he is saying the right things. He'll start training

453
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 15: camp on pup as they ease him back into the work.

454
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 15: Not injury related, just the guy who hadn't been on

455
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,159
Speaker 15: the football field in a while, but he's ready to

456
00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 15: get to action once the season starts.

457
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 1: Doesn't tell me it'll be anything long term for Darren Waller.

458
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 1: Not a big concern there. You know who else I'm

459
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 1: not concerned about is Cam Wolf because based on the

460
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 1: mirror Jim selfies, I've been.

461
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 2: Seeing of late.

462
00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 1: I gotta say, Cam's looking like he's in that pre

463
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: training camp shape right there. You know the classic line

464
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 1: about I'm in the best shape of my life. Cam

465
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: Wolf can say that today. In fact, he doesn't even

466
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,879
Speaker 1: have to say it. Tyreek Hill will say it for him.

467
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 16: Cam.

468
00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:47,720
Speaker 14: I've been watching the workout videos.

469
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:52,399
Speaker 2: You look good, Bro. Trying to catch you.

470
00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 6: Bro, I didn't even know you was in here. I'll

471
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:56,840
Speaker 6: tell you, like, ask him a question. I'm like, oh no,

472
00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:59,960
Speaker 6: he big time now sitting in the back.

473
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:07,360
Speaker 14: Low key, keep doing your things, baby.

474
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:08,439
Speaker 2: So no pressure on you right here. Cam. You know

475
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,919
Speaker 2: this is a guy in Tyreek Hill who likes to

476
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,719
Speaker 2: likes to post his own videos of him working out here.

477
00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 2: Now you know he's uh, now you know he's watching.

478
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 15: Yeah, there's an old saying train like no one's watching.

479
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 15: I guess I'll train now like Tyreek Hill is watching.

480
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 15: I didn't know he was watching the videos. I thought

481
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,200
Speaker 15: it was just me and my wife and my mom

482
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 15: was watching the videos. But apparently Tyreek Hill is as well.

483
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 15: I do not have any plays left, I promise you.

484
00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:37,080
Speaker 15: I have no football plays left. Just jim work. That's

485
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:37,439
Speaker 15: all I have.

486
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 1: Oh no, we know we know Tyreek Hill the cheetah

00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 1: we are now from now, I'm gonna call you Cam

Speaker 1: every day on NFL Network. We will certainly see plenty

500
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,360
Speaker 1: of Caleb Williams when we get to those inside training

501
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:28,000
Speaker 1: camp shows. Will year two be better for than Bears

502
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:31,159
Speaker 1: and Williams? Then year one? We'll break that down our

503
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 1: Stacey Dales joins us from Chicago right after this on

504
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 1: The Insiders.

505
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 11: New Today, the Bears reporting for training camp. I think

506
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 11: Kayleb Williams on Draft Night, if I recall correctly, made

507
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 11: the claw a thing and everybody's like the Bears have

508
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 11: been around for one hundred years and Caleb Williams just

509
00:23:56,040 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 11: now making a new thing. So there's Cairo Santos channeling

510
00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 11: the quarterback.

511
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 8: Of the president and future that is Caleb Williams.

512
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 11: And here is the coach of the future, now the

513
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 11: coach of the president, a guy everybody was after the

514
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 11: last couple.

515
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,560
Speaker 8: Of years the Bears landed. I'm Ben Jonson.

516
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 17: As I think about our team and where we're going

517
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 17: into training camp, it's really there are a lot of

518
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 17: parallels there because as a first time head coach, first

519
00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 17: year head coach, a lot of new staff members on

520
00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 17: the coaching staff, a lot of new faces in the

521
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:30,640
Speaker 17: locker room. We we don't know each other particularly well,

522
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 17: and we've tried to bridge that gap over the course

523
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 17: of the spring. But really the next six weeks is

524
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 17: about us coming together.

525
00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:40,000
Speaker 16: I've had some up and downs and games myself and

526
00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 16: team wise, and so you know, I think, I think

527
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,200
Speaker 16: all of you know, all of last year was was

528
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,359
Speaker 16: great for us and great for me to be able

529
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,040
Speaker 16: to manage, you know, these these next six weeks, about

530
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 16: six weeks, you know, I think it's gonna be fun too.

531
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 16: That's the that's the fun part about it is having

532
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 16: these up and downs and figuring out a way to

533
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 16: manage those and and and deal with them and you know,

534
00:24:57,800 --> 00:24:59,840
Speaker 16: come back the next day or next play or you know,

535
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,360
Speaker 16: trive next situation that we have and you go out

536
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:04,600
Speaker 16: there and execute, and you know, be that guy that

537
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 16: and teammate that you know they depend on and believe

538
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 16: in for those moments.

539
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 11: Oh, Stacy Dale's, the expectations are high surrounding this team.

540
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 11: I know it's a first year coach, but a lot

541
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 11: of times we see first year coaches take a team

542
00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 11: to the postseason.

543
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 8: Perhaps the Bears will be that team.

544
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,240
Speaker 11: So Dale's is here with us, Judy Bautista and me,

545
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:27,080
Speaker 11: Mike Carrofalo. I heard a lot of numbers being thrown

546
00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 11: around with Caleb Williams, and the expectations for this upcoming

547
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 11: season stays. These guys are not shy, whether it's Williams

548
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 11: himself or Ben Johnson about throwing out some numbers and

549
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,600
Speaker 11: say these are the goals for the production this year.

550
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 2: Right.

551
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,919
Speaker 18: Absolutely, it was a great day really at Hallas Hall today.

552
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 18: Let's just hope that Claw can throw some darts to

553
00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,720
Speaker 18: the tune of seventy percent in terms of completion rate,

554
00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 18: because that's the goal. As Ben Johnson told us, you

555
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,640
Speaker 18: notice the sweat on Caleb Williams brow there.

556
00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 19: He had just come in from outside. We're in a

557
00:25:59,359 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 19: heat wave.

558
00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:01,800
Speaker 18: It's going to be so hot tomorrow as they get

559
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,120
Speaker 18: ready to practice here, and they're going to go really

560
00:26:04,160 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 18: early every day, eight thirty in the morning throughout training camp.

561
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,920
Speaker 18: But when you talk about those numbers, you zero in

562
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 18: on the head coach and play caller and Ben Johnson,

563
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:15,760
Speaker 18: Judy and Mike and the quarterback Caleb Williams.

564
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 19: I loved Ben.

565
00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 18: Johnson's transparency today in terms of how much time they've

566
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 18: spent together. I asked him, what does it look like

567
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 18: for you in terms of how you fill your quarterback's cup,

568
00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:28,679
Speaker 18: how much you can give him, and he said, it's

569
00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:29,560
Speaker 18: all about the time.

570
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 19: You spend with your quarterback.

571
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 18: And so they have spent as much time as humanly

572
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,080
Speaker 18: possible over the last two months, not only getting to

573
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,400
Speaker 18: know each other, but really zeroing in on how they're

574
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 18: going to install this thing, what it's going to look like.

575
00:26:41,680 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 18: Not to mention that he sent Caleb Williams home with

576
00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:49,119
Speaker 18: footwork and very specifically homework, excuse me, and that was

577
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 18: footwork and that's getting him under center. You're going to

578
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,479
Speaker 18: see a lot of play action. Get him under center

579
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 18: and get that ball out quickly. That footwork the left

580
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 18: foot up versus the right foot up under center so

581
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 18: that he can get that ball out and he's just

582
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 18: more efficient, better timing with his receivers. And for Caleb Williams,

583
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 18: he was very intentional today in terms of his goals.

584
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 18: Mentioned that seventy percent completion rate. That's what Ben Johnson's

585
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 18: looking for throughout practice. He said, he knows it's a

586
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 18: lofty goal, but that's what it is.

587
00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 19: For Caleb Williams, he.

588
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 18: Wants the seventy He wants to be the first quarterback

589
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 18: in Bear's history. He said this today to throw for

590
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,960
Speaker 18: four thousand yards in a season. It's never been done

591
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 18: in a single season.

592
00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:29,720
Speaker 19: We'll see if he can do it.

593
00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 18: The member of the Bears twenty eighth in terms of

594
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,960
Speaker 18: scoring offense last season, and by the way, tu Atungo

595
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 18: Viiloa led the league with seventy three percent at that

596
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:42,159
Speaker 18: completion rating. So it is a big goal but certainly

597
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:44,120
Speaker 18: attainable if he can click with Ben Johnson.

598
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,080
Speaker 12: Well, obviously there's going to be a huge spotlight on

599
00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,399
Speaker 12: that offense because of all the changes and because of

600
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 12: Caleb and Ben Johnson, but some of the spotlights should

601
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:56,920
Speaker 12: go to the defense as well, because they obviously made

602
00:27:56,920 --> 00:28:00,040
Speaker 12: a pretty big change there. Dennis Allen is now shepherding

603
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:02,360
Speaker 12: that defense. What kind of impact do we think that's

604
00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 12: going to have?

605
00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:08,120
Speaker 18: Stacey, Yeah, Judy, this is such a great point you raise.

606
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 19: The Bears feel really good.

607
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 18: About the staff they've assembled, and on the defensive side,

608
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 18: we're going to talk about the play caller a lot,

609
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 18: but the play caller defensively is Dennis Allen right seven.

610
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,000
Speaker 18: I think seasons as DC there in New Orleans recently

611
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 18: and just before becoming the three year head coach with

612
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:24,600
Speaker 18: the Saints, and you.

613
00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 19: Know, we had an opportunity.

614
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,040
Speaker 18: We know that he is going to impress upon us

615
00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,439
Speaker 18: a very physical defense up front. He wants to be

616
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 18: an attacking style, he wants to dictate what the offense does.

617
00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 19: A lot of man a lot of press coverage.

618
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,239
Speaker 18: But you know, we had the chance to speak with

619
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 18: Grady Jarrett today, the eleven year NFL VET joined the

620
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,680
Speaker 18: Bears this offseason, spent all that time there in Atlanta

621
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 18: facing the team that Dennis Allen came from, in the Saints.

622
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,880
Speaker 18: In that NFC South Division, so he knows him really well.

623
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,480
Speaker 18: But I asked Jarrett today, what have you learned about

624
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 18: your defensive play caller? What are his priorities defensively? He

625
00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 18: rattled off a bunch of stuff. Grittiness, his attention to detail,

626
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 18: his knowledge in terms of knowing what everybody should be

627
00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,440
Speaker 18: doing from the front to the back of the defense

628
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:12,000
Speaker 18: and then being able to convey those expectations.

629
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 19: Very clear communicator.

630
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 18: To his players as they've gotten to know him here

631
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 18: this offseason, and he said he hasn't been babying us.

632
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 18: Nothing's been easy. So he's going to be tough on

633
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,480
Speaker 18: these guys. But he's known as such a great players coach.

634
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 18: This could be an interesting fit for the former head

635
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,040
Speaker 18: coach as he helps out Ben Johnson in his first

636
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 18: stint as head coach with these Bears.

637
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 8: No doubt about it.

638
00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 11: He's got that experience that Ben Johnson can draw upon.

639
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 11: Johnson's got his own ideas, certainly has his ideas for

640
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:39,719
Speaker 11: the offense.

641
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:41,360
Speaker 8: This is an exciting team this year.

642
00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,880
Speaker 11: Stays and you there in Chicago and in the area,

643
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:45,360
Speaker 11: they are going to get a front row seats and

644
00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 11: looking forward to your coverage and back together weekend and

645
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 11: throughout the NFL season when it comes to the Bears

646
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,560
Speaker 11: and the rest of the NFC North as well.

647
00:29:52,600 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 1: Tom another surprise retirement for the Saints on the eve

648
00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,400
Speaker 1: of training camp, a couple months after Derek Carr wah away,

649
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 1: now Tyron Matthew retiring after twelve seasons, three Pro Bowls,

650
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,960
Speaker 1: a whole lot of big plays, thirty three years old

651
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 1: and leaves big shoes to fill. He released a statement saying,

652
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:13,080
Speaker 1: in part, as I hang up my cleats, I'm filled

653
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 1: with gratitude as I close this chapter of my life

654
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 1: and officially retire from the game that shaped me in

655
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 1: every way. I hope I made you proud out there.

656
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:24,080
Speaker 1: This isn't goodbye, It's just the next chapter for.

657
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 2: The New Orleans Saints.

658
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 1: They really entered a different mode once Derek Carr walked away.

659
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 1: Mickey Loomis even referenced that ian earlier today, saying, Derek

660
00:30:33,320 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 1: Carr retiring allowed us to clean up some things, basically

661
00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: pay the bill for some choices they made in the past.

662
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: Now once again you got a veteran player leaving this team.

663
00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 1: The question becomes who's the quarterback and what even is

664
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 1: the upside for this team in twenty twenty five.

665
00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,239
Speaker 10: Yeah, certainly is shaping up to be at least a

666
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 10: challenging year for the New Orleans Saints, maybe a year

667
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,360
Speaker 10: where you pay the bills and figure it out after.

668
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,360
Speaker 6: But don't tell that to the players competing right now

669
00:30:58,680 --> 00:30:59,840
Speaker 6: to be the starting court.

670
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:03,520
Speaker 10: Of of course, the most interesting here Tyler Shuck, the

671
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 10: second round quarterback. Rarely do you see a quarterback taking

672
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 10: the second round. Usually it's like first round, like fifth round.

673
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 10: Tyler Shuck the second rounder certainly is gonna have a

674
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 10: very realistic chance to be the starting quarterback for Kellen

675
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:18,640
Speaker 10: Moore's New Orleans Saints.

676
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 6: Not gonna be without a battle, though.

677
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,240
Speaker 10: Spencer Ratler, who had a ton of important snaps last

678
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 10: year with the Saints, a ton of experience and flashed

679
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 10: a bit, He is going to have a shot. Jake Hayner,

680
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:31,440
Speaker 10: who has been the Saints backup for the last couple

681
00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 10: of years, he also will have a shot to unseat

682
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:35,240
Speaker 10: Tyler shock.

683
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:37,680
Speaker 2: Well.

684
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,560
Speaker 12: Jackson Dark does not have much of a chance to

685
00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,640
Speaker 12: unseat Russell Wilson in training camp. The New York Giants

686
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,720
Speaker 12: want Russell Wilson to be the starter when this season opens,

687
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 12: but training camp is going to be a good long

688
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 12: look at how quickly Jackson Dark can develop. He is

689
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 12: the rookie first round pick. They traded back into the

690
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 12: first round to get him. Question they are hoping to

691
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 12: answer this year is he the guy? How quickly can

692
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 12: he press Russell Wilson? Will they get Jackson Dart onto

693
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 12: the field at some point this season? Training camp is

694
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 12: all about getting him ready.

695
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:12,920
Speaker 11: Judy, you and I will be at the Giants on Sunday,

696
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 11: perhaps interviewing Russell Wilson. The request is in a couple

697
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 11: days later, I'll be in Cleveland to check out the

698
00:32:18,720 --> 00:32:23,120
Speaker 11: Browns four way competition for the starting quarterback job. I mean,

699
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 11: theoretically it's a two way competition between Flacco and Pickett

700
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 11: there on top of I mean, Deshaun Watson's on the roster, but.

701
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 8: He's not gonna play for them again.

702
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 11: So Flacco and Pickett with Dylan Gabriel and Schador Sanders

703
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 11: maybe battling for the last roster spot. Perhaps another one

704
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 11: winds up on the practice squad, but a chance to

705
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:44,840
Speaker 11: really impress the front office and the coaching staff moving forward.

706
00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 8: We know what Flacco has done in this offense before.

707
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 11: We also know that the Browns want to get back

708
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 11: to really running the ball effectively. The Quinn Shawn Jetkins

709
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,600
Speaker 11: situation going to be an issue there.

710
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,680
Speaker 8: Obviously, we'll see how that one plays out.

711
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 11: But for the meantime, Joe Flacco in the driver's seat

712
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 11: with Kenny Picking nipping at his heels and those young

713
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,000
Speaker 11: guys trying to make an impression.

714
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:09,280
Speaker 10: If you see that graphic, you know it only means

715
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,840
Speaker 10: one thing. Scalding hot takes by that guy right there,

716
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 10: Michael F. Florio, Takes that are so hot he needs

717
00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 10: to wear sunglasses, which he's literally wearing sunglasses again because

718
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:23,160
Speaker 10: the takes are so hot.

719
00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,640
Speaker 6: Florio, start right here, take me through it. What is

720
00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,280
Speaker 6: your number four hot take?

721
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,920
Speaker 20: Malik Neighbors up the New York Giants is going to

722
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:37,720
Speaker 20: leave the NFL in receiving yards this year. This take

723
00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 20: is as hot as out being.

724
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,920
Speaker 8: On the buyout where Neighbors is from. Trust me. I

725
00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 8: was there this past weekend. It is scorching.

726
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,880
Speaker 20: But Neighbors last year had the highest target share in

727
00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 20: the NFL, and he had twelve hundred yards as a

728
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 20: rookie despite having the ninth highest rate of uncatchable targets.

729
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:57,240
Speaker 20: And look No disrespect to the Giants QB room last year,

730
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 20: but they just simply could not get him the ball

731
00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 20: down field. He gets a huge upgrade in that regard

732
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 20: with their new quarterback room.

733
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:06,640
Speaker 2: He is a great field stretcher.

734
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 20: It wasn't his fault, but better QB play will help

735
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,640
Speaker 20: unlock his ceiling this year, which I think is not

736
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,160
Speaker 20: only leading the league in receiving yards, but maybe leading

737
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 20: all receivers in Fantasy points. So make sure to target

738
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:21,960
Speaker 20: Malik Neighbors in the later half of your first rounds.

739
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 8: I do not think you will regret it.

740
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 6: You don't need to say no offense to the Giants

741
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 6: QB room. They cleaned it all out anyway. Give me

742
00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 6: take number three.

743
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:31,720
Speaker 8: Devon Hn.

744
00:34:31,800 --> 00:34:34,399
Speaker 20: He will finish as the highest scoring running back. Look

745
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,360
Speaker 20: when you think of Miami, you think of beach balls

746
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:39,000
Speaker 20: and beaches, but you should be thinking of the heat

747
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 20: that Davon Hn is going to bring when he finishes

748
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 20: as the RB one this season. Why do I think

749
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 20: that because he pretty much did it last year when

750
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 20: he averaged twenty three Fantasy points per game with Tua,

751
00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 20: which would have made him the RB one. He had

752
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 20: more receiving stats than any running back last year as

753
00:34:57,520 --> 00:35:00,359
Speaker 20: the Dolphins just abandoned the deep ball and folks on

754
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 20: getting to the ball out of his hands.

755
00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:03,760
Speaker 8: As quickly as possible.

756
00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:05,640
Speaker 2: He is a good receiver and.

757
00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 20: Explosive runner, dominates goal line work, everything you want in

758
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 20: a fantasy running back, and this is the year it

759
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 20: all gets put together. He outscores Saquon and Fijon and Gibbs,

760
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 20: and he finishes as the highest scoring running back in

761
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:22,480
Speaker 20: fantasy and one that you can get in the second round.

762
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,440
Speaker 8: Take neighbors, take a chan. You'll be feeling great.

763
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,520
Speaker 10: Not going to the second round of people keep hearing

764
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 10: you talk about him like that.

765
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:32,640
Speaker 2: Give me take number two, beach.

766
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,840
Speaker 8: Ball guy, justin Fields.

767
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 20: He finishes as a top three fantasy quarterback this year.

768
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,359
Speaker 20: Look ever, walk through a New York City subway station

769
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,000
Speaker 20: on a humid day in August. I have this take

770
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 20: is as hot as that Fields. He thrives as an

771
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:50,920
Speaker 20: outside runner, and this is an offense that should feature

772
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 20: plenty of that. I am expecting to see a Fields

773
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,080
Speaker 20: version of the Tush push in New York, and I'm

774
00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 20: expecting a lot more short and safe. We saw when

775
00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 20: he was with the Pittsburgh Steelers last year and it

776
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 20: was only six games, but if you take that six

777
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,759
Speaker 20: games and make it a seventeen game pace, he would

778
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:12,919
Speaker 20: have scored the sixth most fantasy points amongst quarterbacks, and.

779
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,479
Speaker 2: I think he could exceed that this year.

780
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:17,320
Speaker 20: I think a career year in this new Jets offense

781
00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,839
Speaker 20: is coming for Justin Fields. And the best part is

782
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,319
Speaker 20: you don't gotta pay a top five, top seven QB

783
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 20: price to get him. You can wait and get all

784
00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 20: that production anyway.

785
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,839
Speaker 6: Good stuff so far, smoking hot so far.

786
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:35,520
Speaker 20: Give me number one, Tyler Warren, the rookie finishes as

787
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 20: a top five fantasy tight end.

788
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 2: This take might be as hot as.

789
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 8: The Colts QB can't battle.

790
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 2: But you're gonna hear a lot of stuff.

791
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 20: About Warren this year, that he has target competition, not

792
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:48,479
Speaker 20: the best quarterback room. You know who you were hearing

793
00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 20: about that last year, brock Bowers, when he finishes.

794
00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 2: The tight end one.

795
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 20: The year before was Sam Laporta, He was the tight

796
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,360
Speaker 20: end one. They have proven that in recent years rookie

797
00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,279
Speaker 20: tight ends can succeed right away, and Warren is a

798
00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 20: big target who excels after the catch. Richardson and Jones

799
00:37:04,120 --> 00:37:07,240
Speaker 20: are both at their best statistically when they are targeting

800
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 20: the middle of the field, and I think.

801
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:10,839
Speaker 2: Warren will eat there.

802
00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:13,520
Speaker 20: I think he could finish as the Colts' top target

803
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,840
Speaker 20: and as a top five tight end in fantasy. But again,

804
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:18,919
Speaker 20: you don't have to pay that price. He barely goes

805
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 20: as a top twelve tight end.

806
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 8: So wait and still reap the benefits.

807
00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:26,200
Speaker 6: Colson Lovelin being like, what did you know? I was

808
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:26,759
Speaker 6: picked first?

809
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 10: Anyway, FOURIO great stuff. As always, don't go anywhere. We're

810
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,560
Speaker 10: gonna need you this entire season, but thanks fantastic stuff.

826
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,319
Speaker 12: There is Brian Chottenheimer, the new head coach. We got

827
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:33,919
Speaker 12: to see a little bit of Dak Prescott on this day.

828
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,960
Speaker 12: We know that Michael Parsons is at training camp. We'll

829
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,880
Speaker 12: see exactly what he does during training camp as negotiations

830
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:46,000
Speaker 12: toward his next contract continue, and post it up with

831
00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 12: the Cowboys, as she so often is, is our very

832
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,840
Speaker 12: own Jane Slater Live in Oxnard, Okay, Jane. This was

833
00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 12: also George Pickens's first practice with the Dallas Cowboys of

834
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,560
Speaker 12: training camp or your impressions.

835
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 3: Well, Judy, when I'm out here at training camp, I

836
00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 3: try to sit next to people that are smarter than me,

837
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:06,800
Speaker 3: which is why Ian and I typically roam separate.

838
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 19: I'm kidding, but.

839
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,319
Speaker 3: Today I was sitting next to Brian brought us and

840
00:39:10,480 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 3: Brad Sham. Brian brought us a former scout, Brad Sham,

841
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 3: who is the voice the Dallas Cowboy's been covering these

842
00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 3: camps since nineteen eighty three. They both picked up on

843
00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 3: the fact that Brian Schottenheimer looks like he's using tighter formation,

844
00:39:21,800 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 3: so that should be exciting to the football nerds, but

845
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:28,319
Speaker 3: I noticed a lot of premotion snaps. That's something that

846
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:29,960
Speaker 3: he promised when he took the job. I know that

847
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:33,400
Speaker 3: something that also excites our nerdier football fans.

848
00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 2: But it's what he.

849
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:37,799
Speaker 3: Said about, or at least teased about, what he's gonna

850
00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,960
Speaker 3: use George Pickens in this scheme. Here's what he had

851
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:41,239
Speaker 3: to say.

852
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,640
Speaker 21: His ability to track a football is uncanny. You can't

853
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,560
Speaker 21: watch a guy play the deep ball and be like, okay,

854
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:53,160
Speaker 21: that's just different. So when he's not doubled, he's really open,

855
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,200
Speaker 21: and so I think that's something we're getting used to

856
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,920
Speaker 21: with him. He's been great with our ability to move

857
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 21: him around. You know, it's been different. You know, we

858
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 21: think to maximize him. He can't just play one spot.

859
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 21: You know, he can't just play an ex We're going

860
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:06,399
Speaker 21: to move him around. He's been great with that. He's

861
00:40:06,440 --> 00:40:09,440
Speaker 21: excited about that because he and CD need to be interchangeable.

862
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:14,760
Speaker 21: But the instincts are also uncanny, just for finding zones

863
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:18,120
Speaker 21: and you know, the ability to sit in windows that

864
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:21,600
Speaker 21: maybe some people don't see. But the number one thing

865
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:23,160
Speaker 21: that jumps out at me would be the ability to

866
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:26,920
Speaker 21: track the deep ball, because it is uncanny.

867
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 3: Schottenheimer was asked, how does the Pickens acquisition help dak

868
00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,399
Speaker 3: and he stated the obvious. He said, if you look

869
00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,239
Speaker 3: at this offense last year, there weren't a lot of

870
00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 3: explosive plays, not a lot of explosive plays and the

871
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,759
Speaker 3: run game or the passing game. What this does is

872
00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 3: Pickens gives you a little bit of playbook variety, also

873
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,120
Speaker 3: giving us a little variety. This is now two camps

874
00:40:45,120 --> 00:40:48,080
Speaker 3: that I've seen them hand the ball off to Cavante Turpin.

875
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,320
Speaker 3: They're wide receiver, the speedster.

876
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 4: Might they use.

877
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 3: Him in the run game this year? We'll have to see.

878
00:40:56,400 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 19: Jane, thank you.

879
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,080
Speaker 12: I'm sure we will be hearing much more from you

880
00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,839
Speaker 12: about the Dallas cop in the coming days.

881
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 1: Twenty six teams reporting to training camp today, only one

882
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:10,280
Speaker 1: of them with their star receiver making all like Mario

883
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 1: kart Hoopinakua showing up in interesting fashion for the Rams

884
00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: did not dye his hair. Leave that to offensive lineman

885
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 1: Kevin Dotson coming in and looking more like a Ram

886
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 1: than the logo that's on his shirt that actually looks

887
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:29,280
Speaker 1: more like a rampart right there. Juan Brisker apol into

888
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:33,160
Speaker 1: the Bears training camp, made with AI. Now it's allan

889
00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 1: Iverson stepping over everyone to get into Hellis Hold today.

890
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:40,719
Speaker 1: And aboute Smith. Can we get the man a bell boy?

891
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 1: Can we get him some help?

892
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 2: Thank you?

893
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, there it is. He should not have to. He's

894
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:50,080
Speaker 1: not gonna say this. Don is not small, but he's

895
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:52,239
Speaker 1: not the biggest guy. We don't need him with the

896
00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:55,160
Speaker 1: double decker lane Johnson wants to carry five different boxes.

897
00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:57,520
Speaker 2: Mike, I say, hey at it. Let's give the wide

898
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:58,560
Speaker 2: receiver just a little.

899
00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:02,919
Speaker 11: Bit help, just maybe applying for the days at Reggie Wayne,

900
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 11: the veteran wide receiver for the Colts, who just had

901
00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 11: great interesces every year. One day the Indy, one year

902
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:10,839
Speaker 11: the Indy car. He had a military entrance, he had

903
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,680
Speaker 11: a helicopter entrance. Reggie Wayne was the king of the

904
00:42:13,719 --> 00:42:14,720
Speaker 11: training camp arrival.

905
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:20,280
Speaker 1: Thinking about you today, Reggie, Judy your favorite entry.

906
00:42:21,040 --> 00:42:23,719
Speaker 12: I remember when the Jets we trained at Ostra and

907
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,799
Speaker 12: the players stayed in the dorms. They used to like

908
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 12: come in with TVs, pillows, fans, And I remember Vinny

909
00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,040
Speaker 12: Testa Verity pulled up one you're in a bentley and

910
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 12: then unloaded all of his stuff from the bentley.

911
00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 1: Mean, I'm sure your story was great too, but we're

912
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 1: out of time. Two more teams Fountains of Steelers in tomorrow.

913
00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 1: We're back at seven pm time. Thanks for watching see
