1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:01,920
Speaker 1: Um, I mean, I think it comes from a lot

2
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: of things. I think just obviously the experiences I've had

3
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:08,240
Speaker 1: up until this point, you know, good, bad, indifferent. You know,

4
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: I've I've learned just throughout my own experiences, and really

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,040
Speaker 1: I've had good people in my ear, good voices, and

6
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 1: obviously my family. I think my parents did. I know,

7
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: my parents did a great job raising me and teaching me.

8
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: One I think it all goes back to humility too.

9
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: Is whether you win, lose, play well, or don't play well,

10
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 1: it's never all about me. So I think that's the

11
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: main thing I try to keep in mind. Um. And

12
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 1: then always I've tried to just ever put everything on me.

13
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: I'd rather take too much of the blame than than not,

14
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So it's like, even if

15
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: you know, receiver drops the ball or it's a place

16
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 1: someone's got to catch, or it's running back or whatever

17
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 1: it is, I always try to just it starts with, hey,

18
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 1: my bad, let's you know, talk through it figured out

19
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 1: whatever it is. That's even just on the field. And

20
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 1: then obviously you know when it comes to coming up

21
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: here after a game where I don't play well or

22
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,480
Speaker 1: whatever it is, where we lose. You know, at the

23
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 1: end of the day, even if I do play well

24
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: and we lose, we still didn't get it done. And

25
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 1: there's always things that you can do better. And uh um, yeah,

26
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 1: I think I've just had I've had great coaches too,

27
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,080
Speaker 1: you know, my high school coach, Coach Sweeney, coach Peterson,

28
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,679
Speaker 1: all the coaches that I've come in contact with have

29
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 1: have taught me something and learned a lot from them.

30
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:11,440
Speaker 1: And just how they handled the media. I think that

31
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,160
Speaker 1: was something I had to learn early in my career,

32
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: just standing up in front of cameras and reporters and

33
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: media more than most people to even starting senior year

34
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: high school. So I think I learned that early and

35
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: just always try to stay out of headlines. You know,

36
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 1: sometimes I'm probably pretty boring up here because I'm like

37
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 1: a broken record, but uh, you guys, are you guys?

38
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,759
Speaker 1: Are you guys? Are too kind? I appreciate that, so

39
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: but it's I think that's that's sometimes the best way

40
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: to be, you know. Um, So I just try to

41
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: I try to be that way. Are you playing with

42
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,400
Speaker 1: the most Are you playing with the most confident you

43
00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 1: played with for this point in your career? This week?

44
00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 1: Is that Is that just the natural progression of what

45
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,360
Speaker 1: it's going to be every week, you know what I mean.

46
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,640
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I like the way you know, I've

47
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 1: been playing the last two weeks. There's obviously, like like

48
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,360
Speaker 1: I say every week every day when I talk to

49
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: you guys, there's always things to improve on. And you know,

50
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: I feel like I've played, I've played well the last

51
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 1: two weeks, but there's there's still a few plays every

52
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,040
Speaker 1: game that you know, I can do better, whether it's

53
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: a misthrow and missed read, getting to my through my progressions,

54
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: faster protections, all that stuff. There's always things I can,

55
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 1: you know, improve on. So there's little things, but I

56
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 1: do feel really comfortable, really confident. I feel like we're

57
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: starting to click more and more as an offense, especially

58
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 1: in the passing game. Um, and I think that's something

59
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:20,919
Speaker 1: that is obviously important, especially this time of year. You

60
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,520
Speaker 1: want to be playing your best football November, December, January.

61
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 1: So I like where we're at as an offense. Really.

62
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: Obviously we didn't we didn't get it done last week,

63
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:29,720
Speaker 1: but as far as the steps that we took, you know,

64
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 1: when you really look at the details and some of

65
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 1: the stuff we're doing. Um, I think we're making a

66
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: lot of steps. So, um, just trying to continue that

67
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: improvement and keep that confidence for myself and just for

68
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 1: all of us. And I think, you know, obviously it's

69
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 1: a huge part of the game is playing with that

70
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: confidence and trust in each other. What's the challenge of

71
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: making that three in a row but where you're playing

72
00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: pretty well against that, Yeah, it's it's the same thing

73
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,000
Speaker 1: every week, preparing, you know, forgetting the last one and

74
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: preparing to to go play your best game this next Sunday.

75
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,480
Speaker 1: And that's you know, using your same process during the week,

76
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: not not cutting it short, you know, especially this time

77
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: of year, even doing a little extra, you know, especially

78
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 1: like we talked about this holidays, families in town. Still

79
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: gotta you know, get all the work done, get get

80
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: prepared for the game on Sunday, and um, you you

81
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:17,359
Speaker 1: do it. You stay consistent by consistently preparing the same way. Um.

82
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 1: So that's what that's what I'm gonna do. And obviously

83
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: the the Ravens present some challenges. I got a really

84
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 1: good defense. They're playing well right now, so it'll be

85
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: be a good, good challenge for us. But you know,

86
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: you do it the same way. Just prepare pair like

87
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: I did the other the other weeks. And that's what

88
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: I've done the whole season. Obviously, you know, I'm starting

89
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 1: to be more consistent, but um, you gotta keep doing

90
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: it every week. How would you describe, Trevor, when the

91
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: group came back in on Monday here, what was the

92
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: vibe of the group compared to maybe last year's by

93
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: or maybe even late in the season last year. I mean,

94
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: we've always this group has been really good. I feel

95
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: like we've been focused. Um, we've we haven't lost sight

96
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 1: of what we're trying to do. You know. Obviously we

97
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: had some some bumps in the road along the way,

98
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: you know, a tough stretch, and every day we never

99
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: really lost that that vision of what's in round of

100
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: us and what we still can accomplish this year. You know.

101
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: So I think that's one one thing that this team

102
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: has done a really good job of, is is keeping

103
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 1: that in sight and keeping that in front of our

104
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: mind of of what we can accomplish and what's still

105
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: in front of us. And the same thing we got

106
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: back on Monday. Everybody's ready to work. You know, we're

107
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: treating this like a new season, you know, seven games

108
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: season we got, we got, we're guaranteed seven games and

109
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: after that's whatever we earned. So just putting our best

110
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 1: foot forward for this next forty something days. You think

111
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 1: about anybody can do that, you know, just just do

112
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: your best every day and put yourself in a position

113
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: to win these games and see where we stack up

114
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 1: at the end of it. Your Louisville, how much did

115
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 1: you watch what he's doing? Yeah, I watched. I was

116
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: actually at the uh I don't know if you remember

117
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: that Clemson Louisville game, I think sixteen seventeen with one

118
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 1: of those one of those years. Um, I was at

119
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 1: that game. So it was it was a really really

120
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,840
Speaker 1: good one him and de Sean, and he's a he's

121
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: a great player. Just yeah, I think it came down

122
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 1: to like a fourth down that they didn't get at

123
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: the end of the game in the red zone. But uh,

124
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 1: um yeah, I mean, just a guy honestly, just fun

125
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: to watch. Not going to be as fun to watch,

126
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 1: you know, this this week. You know, um obviously not

127
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 1: want him to be as fun to watch this week.

128
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 1: So but he's just an incredible player. He's a guy.

129
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:14,080
Speaker 1: It's hard to contain you can do so many different things.

130
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 1: And obviously he's a great runner, but just the thread

131
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: years with his arm too, you know, can make all

132
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 1: the throws. Um just a freak. You know, he's a

133
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: he's a great player. So he's a guy. There's a

134
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 1: lot of them in this league, not not exactly like him.

135
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 1: He's really unique. But um, I played Um Patrick last week.

136
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 1: So every week you got a new challenge. And this

137
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 1: is definitely a big challenge for our defense and I'm

138
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 1: excited to watch him prepare for that. Russ him, Uh,

139
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: probably wouldn't. Probably woudn't bode well for us if that's

140
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: our If that's our plan, is trying to out rush him.

141
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,800
Speaker 1: So I don't I don't know. We'll see. You don't

142
00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 1: want to give anything away, but I don't know if

143
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,599
Speaker 1: that'll be it. What was what is your relationship with

144
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,799
Speaker 1: Patrick Trevor? And then I know a lot of people

145
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: heard like I guess he came up to you post

146
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 1: game and was like, hey, like at these guys together

147
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,240
Speaker 1: and rally them. Had you had a relationship with him?

148
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,080
Speaker 1: Do you know him at all? And obviously do you

149
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 1: know Lamar as well? Like that, Yeah, I've you know

150
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: I've met and talked to Patrick a couple of times,

151
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 1: you know, two or three times he ran too each other,

152
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 1: and UM, always been friendly. No, I wouldn't say we're

153
00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: not close friends by any means, just because we haven't

154
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: hung out much, but really just have a lot of

155
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,240
Speaker 1: respect for him and UM hopefully vice versa. You know,

156
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:17,839
Speaker 1: just seeing him along the way. He's always been a

157
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 1: guy that obviously is a couple of years older than me.

158
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,799
Speaker 1: And watch the way he's played and just represented himself

159
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: and it's been, you know, cool to see and some

160
00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: somebody kind of look up to. And then Lamar I

161
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: met him and I think when I was in high

162
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 1: school some camp somewhere I don't even remember where. Um,

163
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 1: but the same way with him. I think he's always

164
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: carried himself in a respectable way. And Um, just like

165
00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: I said, obviously on the field that speaks for herself.

166
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: He's a great player. So it's it's fun to watch

167
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: both of those guys. They're both great players and good

168
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 1: people from everything I've heard. Kind in a similar vein

169
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,440
Speaker 1: talking about good guys, Calais Campbell, what do you know

170
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 1: about him from the guys here in the locker room

171
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 1: and then from you watching from afar, heard so many

172
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: good things from from personnel here staff. Um, guys in

173
00:06:58,000 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 1: the team that played with them only heard good things.

174
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: So he's a great guy. And then on tape, I

175
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,119
Speaker 1: mean he's like I said the same about the other guys.

176
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 1: He's a he's a great player, presents some challenges for us. So, um,

177
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:10,400
Speaker 1: I've heard he's like one of Jacksonville's favorite guys. You

178
00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 1: know that that's been here, and I think he he

179
00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: loved it here too from everything that I've heard. Um,

180
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: I think his brothers around here somewhere and talk to

181
00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: him when I got drafted. So um, I mean he's

182
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:21,080
Speaker 1: he's he's a guy that just does it the right way.

183
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 1: And you look at the way he plays the game,

184
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: and there's certain guys when you watch him play and

185
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: how they carry themselves and you just respect the way

186
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: they go about their business and just loves the game.

187
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: And I think that obviously makes the game better for everybody. Defensively, obviously,

188
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: you know him in that front are kind of getting

189
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: at cooking now. But the linebacking corp they add ro

190
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: Kuwan and then I know in the back end there

191
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: a little bit younger, what do you see from them

192
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 1: layer by layer on the defensive side, Yeah, they're they're

193
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: a really good group. You know, you look at the guys,

194
00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: a lot of them have played together for a while. Um.

195
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: And then like you said, the front seven is is

196
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,240
Speaker 1: really flying around. Obviously they added ro Kuan who's who's

197
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:56,200
Speaker 1: a great player, and that's that made him a lot

198
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 1: better for sure. So you just you look at those

199
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 1: the front seven. They play hard there. Fis are cool,

200
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: they're fast and it's the biggest thing with their linebackers

201
00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 1: Patrick Queen and Rokuan Smith, the sidelines, the sideline, those

202
00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 1: guys can fly, so that presents some challenges. And then

203
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,400
Speaker 1: they're back in you know, Marlin hunt Free, Marcus Peters,

204
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 1: Kyle Hambleton's um all, I mean, you keep going on

205
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: all all the guys in the secondary. I'd say the

206
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,280
Speaker 1: one thing is you can tell they're really well coats

207
00:08:18,280 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 1: are all on the same page. You know. It's a

208
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: it's a defense that's been playing together for a while

209
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: and you can see that on tape. And then obviously

210
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: they added ro Kwan. You see him starting to get

211
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,440
Speaker 1: more and more comfortable and flying around. So it's a

212
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: great defense. And then today, it's just another challenge for us,

213
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: and um, we'll have to prepare to to, you know,

214
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 1: in our own way, to find holes and find things

215
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,559
Speaker 1: that we can expose. But they're they're really good defense,

216
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: and they obviously are gonna make it tough for you.

217
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,440
Speaker 1: Good all right, thank you all ye
