1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, teams. Do you feel like you'd be helping team 2 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 1: a little bit more coming out perspective? We'll see. I mean, 3 00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,360 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm just trying to prepare to do 4 00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:12,920 Speaker 1: whatever they ask me to do. So um, i'd say 5 00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,000 Speaker 1: I've learned a lot this past season, and hopefully that 6 00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,279 Speaker 1: will transition and then you doing whatever they want. So 7 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,040 Speaker 1: whether that's playing all special teams still or playing some offense, 8 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:23,599 Speaker 1: we'll see what happens. How do you work on like that? 9 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 1: I know it's kind of a dumb question, but for 10 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: the blocking aspect because so much of you know, it's 11 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 1: nothing in the spring for it, and you know today 12 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: is the first padded day where you catch past season 13 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: work on roup running. But how do you improve you 14 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:36,839 Speaker 1: blocking up? I think a lot of it's just technique 15 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 1: and learning from the older guys. Obviously being a smaller 16 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,480 Speaker 1: type tight end more of an h back, it's got 17 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 1: to be a lot of good technique and then your 18 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: will to block. So UM, I feel like if you 19 00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: really want to block, and then you have the good technique, 20 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: then you're gonna be all right. You've probably been asked this, 21 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: I apologize, But a year later, how much more comfortable 22 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: do you feel after today than you did a year 23 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: ago at this time, I'd say it's I'd say comfortability wise, 24 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 1: knowing all my teammates and from that basis is really cool. Um. 25 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I'm just trying to learn 26 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 1: every day and relearn the offense, and I mean we 27 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: put new things in every single day. So that's what 28 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: I'm trying to do. Your brother doing, he's doing really good. Yeah. Yeah, 29 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: he's just leaning on God and that's that's how it is. 30 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,199 Speaker 1: He's gonna get back surgery and he's feeling great. Yeah. Yeah, 31 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 1: to seem back out of here. To you, I got 32 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: all the confidence in the world my brothers. So he's 33 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: a he's a warrior, expecting to be on the field 34 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 1: next year for sure. So where's your confidence level at? Sorry, well, 35 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,679 Speaker 1: there's your confidence level a line right now? Your confidence 36 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: level of yourself. Um, I think it's I mean, I 37 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: don't know if i'd say it's really high, really low, 38 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: but I just feel like I'm really looking forward to 39 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: learning every day and that's what I've been doing, and 40 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:44,759 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm my mind's in the right place 41 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: when it comes to trying to learn from the older 42 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: guys and then just taking what my coaches are telling 43 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 1: me and apply to the field. So that's where I'm at. 44 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: So you gets inside work with James and and Tom 45 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: today beneficial is at really?
