1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: Look, we're just getting here, getting started, looking forward to 2 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:04,920 Speaker 1: a couple of good days of work in some Browns 3 00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,920 Speaker 1: as remain on our installs. Our systems are fundamentals, but 4 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: obviously a new opponent. Let's opportune see different levels of talent, 5 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: new players, different schemes. It's good opportune for our chan 6 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 1: our team to go ahead and change up a little bit, 7 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:19,440 Speaker 1: come out here and compete. So any questions, what are 8 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:24,000 Speaker 1: you expecting out of Canarius and even coming holiday? Uh? Yeah, 9 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:25,599 Speaker 1: both those guys gonna focus more on to rehab with 10 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 1: the trainers. We're gonna keep ramping those guys, but week goes. 11 00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,280 Speaker 1: They're both on different levels in terms of individual body. 12 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: But while we're here, we'll use the facilities of Browns 13 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: are allowing us to use. Our trainers will be here 14 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: with them. Say Kwan as well be in that boat. 15 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,360 Speaker 1: You won't do anything pettive against the Browns. So we're 16 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: gonna focus on these guys getting in you know, better 17 00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:42,200 Speaker 1: shape and focus on getting health to get back on field. 18 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: Go under sent sneaking to a seven on seven rep 19 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: or two their days at a step four. Yeah, so 20 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 1: he didn't sneak in everything. We're doing is very scripted 21 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: for him. So a few one on ones, a few 22 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 1: seven on seven s form uh, there's at times put 23 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: him in a red jersey. We're very specific about who 24 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: he's working against on our team to make sure you know, 25 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: we're really controlling the rep um our guys with a 26 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: lot of respect for all of our team, especially guys 27 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: in the position sake Juan's in coming off with injuries. 28 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 1: Who want to make sure if there's no miscommunication or 29 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,039 Speaker 1: misinterpretation of what the drill is, we're gonna limit the contact. 30 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: This point, he's definitely advancing in his rehab. We'rena keep 31 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: on pushing as far as we can. Uh. Going against 32 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:16,679 Speaker 1: another team of competitive drills, we don't think that's a 33 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 1: smart avenue for any of our players come off injury 34 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,119 Speaker 1: right now, so we would be careful to see Kwan, 35 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: but he is progressing as rehab. Joe, it's something strange 36 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: way if you were not having a joint practice, if 37 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:27,320 Speaker 1: you were back at the facility, would say Kwan to 38 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,320 Speaker 1: do a little more than he'll be doing these two days. 39 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: I would say it's safe to say the answer that 40 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: would be yes, Paul Um, I couldn't say exactly what 41 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,160 Speaker 1: that would be be more along the lines of the 42 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: one on one shall the other day, of the seven 43 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 1: or seven shall the other day. It wouldn't be eleven 44 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: on eleven contact, I can tell you that right now, 45 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: but it will be more than what you're gonna see 46 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:43,320 Speaker 1: these next couple of days. But we're gonna make sure 47 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: that we get the volume up and simulate as much 48 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: as we can while we're out here. Joe, if you're 49 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 1: having the eleven on eleven, Um, I know Kevin Night 50 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: said yesterday as when you guys are on the same page, 51 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: the idea of im not breaking guys to the ground. Yes, Um, 52 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 1: how do you teach that for your guys, especially where 53 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: the juices kind of get going. But we worked that 54 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: every day in practice. We call it our team temple, 55 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: and we say team temple. We're playing fast, we're playing aggressive, 56 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 1: we're playing control. We're playing on our feet. We're not 57 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: cut blocking to take some of the ground. We're not 58 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: live tackling all the ground. We're not taking kill shots 59 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 1: on players. You can thud up a runner if you're 60 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,640 Speaker 1: looking at him and he's the opportunity of avoiding you. 61 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: We're not taking any kind of shots on a player 62 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: or a defenseless player on the side will tag off. 63 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 1: We're gonna thud the runner close to the line and 64 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: let them finish and carry down the field. So our 65 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: defense players can finish in pursuit as well. So how 66 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: you can manage the scenarios and joint practice. So what 67 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: are you guys gonna work on? You We're gonna work 68 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 1: on today. Yeah, so you're gonna be just see a 69 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: mix of a lot of things. We're gonna work some 70 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 1: team blitz periods, different mix of team run and play 71 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: action periods, some team two minute periods. Working seven on seven. 72 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: You get the mix of the offensive line, defensive line 73 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,079 Speaker 1: one on one scenario. See some receivers dvs. One on 74 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: one in at least type drill period to see the 75 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 1: tight end, safeties, running backs going one on one. In 76 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,959 Speaker 1: past drills, you'll see punt punt return ems stay in 77 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: the kicking game. Tomorrow we kick kick return empsis in 78 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: the kicking game. But these are all things that you 79 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: can go ahead and really work with the other team 80 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:02,280 Speaker 1: and make sure you're on the same page. You talk 81 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: about the tempos that the drill, the reps of the drill. 82 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: It's something that goes all the way up to as 83 00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: late as last night, making sure that we're both on 84 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: the same page in terms of the health of our team, 85 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: who we have available to practice, to make sure to 86 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: make sure we manage the reps for everybody involved. You 87 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: know that we get the most out of practice. We're 88 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: also smart with their players. You have to cost the 89 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: players prior to this is not cross the line or 90 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: do you want to see the juices flowing because it 91 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: is competitive? Well, it's football, so it's gonna be competitive. 92 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: But like right now, the leadership group on our team 93 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: and the Browns are talking, make sure on the same page. 94 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: Both staffs have talked to their players extensively. I spoke 95 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,639 Speaker 1: to our players, Kevin spoke to his players. Were both 96 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: given the message we're here to work together. Okay, we 97 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: don't have to get on a plane and fly across 98 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: country to come get in a fist point rior to 99 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: play football against a good team and improve what we're 100 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 1: doing as a team. How much can you particularly learn 101 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: about your offensive line going against some of their defensive linings. 102 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 1: You know they've got some talent cover there. We're very 103 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 1: talented team. So in terms of what we're trying to learn. 104 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: I'm trying to really focus on our fundamentals how he 105 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 1: can progress. It's definitely gonna be a different look against 106 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: their players. It's different when you see the same guys 107 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 1: in practice day and day out, you can really get 108 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: a field and a rhythm for what they do as 109 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: a player technique wise, and then you can watch all 110 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: the taping one but once you go ahead and get 111 00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: in live action or at least you know, faster paced 112 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: competitive action against a different opponent, it's gonna always be different. 113 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: So they've got very talented players in this roster. It's 114 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: very well put together teams, a very well coached team. 115 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: So it's gonna be a great chance for our guys 116 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 1: who's next two days coming out here and compete. What 117 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: do you think you're gonna get from the three guys 118 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: you faded through the rosters in the preseason game. We're 119 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: really just looing for competition right there from those guys, 120 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: and we're getting the same opportunity y on us. Our 121 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: roster has to come in and demonstrate the deserve a 122 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 1: place on this team, to earn a spot on this team, 123 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: So we're in the opportunity is next, you know, a 124 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: couple of days to two weeks, depend on how long 125 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 1: it goes, and give a chance to go and slug 126 00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: out with our guys and show they're one of the best. 127 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: Fifty three About Josh Jackson, what what do you What 128 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:43,840 Speaker 1: do you guys like about him that maybe you want 129 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: to make that deal.

Tomore is gonna 172 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: be a lot more red area work, So you're gonna 173 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: see different schemes and then those parts of the field, 174 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: different things show up. It's not gonna all mirror each 175 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:18,360 Speaker 1: other day by day, but you are going to see 176 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: some adjustments day to day. So one will not participate 177 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: in drills against the Browns, he will not nothing against 178 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: the Browns of bad. So we have talked to you 179 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,160 Speaker 1: on Sunday. The sense was you guys needed to add 180 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: depth on the offensive line. But obviously you even thought 181 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: you might see a body. And is that a sign 182 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,039 Speaker 1: that the guys that maybe learn participating last week have 183 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 1: gotten healthier or at least healthy enough to be a 184 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: part of this. That's definitely a part of right there. 185 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: I mean, look, we got Jonathan Harrison's back out their 186 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 1: full practice with us. Now, you know Ted Larson we 187 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: had right before the game last week. I didn't want 188 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,279 Speaker 1: to go and throw him in the live action without 189 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 1: him even having a snap and training camp. That only 190 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,200 Speaker 1: would have been fair to him. It was more of 191 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 1: a break class emergency type situation. We're able to get 192 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: through that without using them. He's obviously practicing with the 193 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: team now. So I feel we had a couple of 194 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: players right there that help with our death. Where's the 195 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: best quarterback in the Philadelphia Catholic League and like the 196 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: late ninety Macgia, Brett Gordon, Brett Gordon was a monster. Now, 197 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: I played a little south, so I dont think anyone 198 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: likes to admit that LSU, but uh yeah, Brett Gordon 199 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: was really really good. But he played in Villanova. I 200 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: cant remera if he was part of the national championship 201 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: team or not. He's actually coaching. He coached it old 202 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 1: this when I was playing in Missipi State. Who actually 203 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: intersected on the field before the game a couple of times. 204 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,440 Speaker 1: It was fun catching up with them. I think he's 205 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: coached high school again right now in the Philly area. 206 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: But Brett was one of the biggest guy. I think 207 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: Brett was about you know, five nine. He was scrappy dude, 208 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: but he could air it out. Now, Brett was real, 209 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 1: really good, as the South teams were pretty damn good. 210 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: So I mean, if y ask our strength coach Craig, 211 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a little sou guy. I'll tell you 212 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: all about and I think theyone cares to hear about them. 213 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: But you know, let's give it that right there. Who's 214 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: the second best in the late nineties? If you're trying 215 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: to refer between me and Kevin, I didn't play in 216 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: the Philippy Catholic League, Guys. I played for Lanzo Catholic. 217 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: We're in the p double A. We're playing for the 218 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: state title. Uh Catholically played for the city title. So 219 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: it was different schools, different areas right there. But I 220 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: appreciate the trap question. Later on, we're in a pump 221 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: passing kick competition with me and Kevin. You guys want 222 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,280 Speaker 1: to stay after that Smart's relay race, so we'll make sure. Joe. 223 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: Kevin said yesterday that you seem destined for this as 224 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 1: your life, you know, just beating from a football family, etcetera. 225 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: I don't know how well you knew him fact then, 226 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: but did he come across that way as a guy 227 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 1: that was probably gonna be a coach at some point? 228 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: You know, it was a short term that we were 229 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: actually in the same school together. Um My brother was 230 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: a couple of years older me. Him and Kevin actually 231 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:27,640 Speaker 1: played together a few years. Um My brother had all 232 00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: the respecting the world for Kevin. I did as well, 233 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: and I brother got pretty close him as a player 234 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: being on the same team. He was a senior, Kevin's 235 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 1: a sophomore. I think the one thing was came across 236 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: to me with Kevin is he's got a natural toughness 237 00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: to him and he's got a natural focus to him. 238 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 1: So if you were asking either of us back there 239 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: and we're fourteen, fifteen years old, I know even us. 240 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: So we looked at each other and said we're gonna 241 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: be coaches in the NFL at the same time. Um. 242 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 1: But I don't think there ever with anything that would 243 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 1: have doubted where I think Kevin could have gone in life. 244 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 1: Um He's always had that drives. I was at that focus. 245 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: It's funny. It's it's a small you know, we talked 246 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: about the Catholic League, damn, but it's it's it is 247 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,200 Speaker 1: a small area in that part Pennsylvania. You keep up 248 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: with everybody in terms of who's playing what they're doing. Um, 249 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:05,719 Speaker 1: you know, I was kind of kept up with those 250 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 1: guys from the prep. I kept with those guys from 251 00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: Father Judge and other schools down to the city. Um, 252 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:12,439 Speaker 1: but look at a lot of respect for Kevin. I 253 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,599 Speaker 1: knew he was a tremendous player. I know when he 254 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 1: played a pen you have played a lot of DV 255 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: and did a really really good job. I wouldn't put 256 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: a seal on anything Kevin's doing. I got a lot 257 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: of respect from as a person, a lot of respect 258 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: from as a coach, and a lot of respect from 259 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: as a player. Um. You know, I can't say enough 260 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 1: good things about him. And as I explained to the players, 261 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 1: you know, part of the reason we're here working with 262 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: this team, as me and Kevin having conversations back in 263 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: the off season in our relationship together that we you know, 264 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: that respect together. We want to accomplish, to get our 265 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: teams together, and we both have things in mind that 266 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:40,679 Speaker 1: we want to accomplish. And it doesn't mean coming out 267 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: and sloppy work. All right. Now, his team plays, They 268 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 1: played hard, they played fundamentally sound, play well. Coach had 269 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: a lot of success last year because the way they 270 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 1: put the team together We're looking to come out here 271 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: this week just get better as a team, and that's 272 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,400 Speaker 1: really the goal right there. So it doesn't work out well, 273 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: I'd be able to work with guys you have relationships 274 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: with absolutely absolutely, can you last one? I don't know 275 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 1: if you answered this already. Could you tell that does 276 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: this mean anything to Freddie Kitchens to be back on 277 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,559 Speaker 1: this field. I can't speak for Freddy. I know it 278 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:05,719 Speaker 1: means a lot for me to have Freddy on my 279 00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 1: staff and be out there. It was today. Well, I 280 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: mean you give a hands as to what he how 281 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 1: much he helps you? Like, what does he what does 282 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: he do for you? Freddy's hands on with everything. And 283 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:17,599 Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. The funny thing about the NFL is, 284 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: it's a small league. You know. Even as I walk 285 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: into building, there's equipment managers that I've worked with before. 286 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: There's receiver's coach I've worked with before, There's people in 287 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: the personality part of my work before. So it's not 288 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 1: uncommon anytime you cross over with organizations that the familiar faces, 289 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,080 Speaker 1: the places you've been before. Next week will be in Boston. 290 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: That's a place that I spent about a decade raised 291 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: my kids. But I'm a giant now and you move 292 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,439 Speaker 1: on to move the next place. You carry the experiences 293 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 1: with you, but you move on and you work with 294 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 1: your feet are at that time. Um, I can't speak 295 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: for any one person on our staff, but every single 296 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 1: person our staff, you know, Freddy obviously in that category 297 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 1: is tremendous help to me. Are align these guys with 298 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 1: their expertise for their insight, are aligning for their leadership 299 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 1: and the way they develop our players. Uh, he's great 300 00:10:57,520 --> 00:10:59,319 Speaker 1: for me, he's great with the players. He brings a 301 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 1: natural intent city to him, brings a lot of experience, 302 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: he brings obviously a different personality at times. He can 303 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 1: crank it up intense times, you can make it really 304 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,200 Speaker 1: light and loose in the meeting room. And you need 305 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: a combination of both those right there. So I think 306 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: our personalities playoff well and our staff. Uh. You know, look, 307 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,440 Speaker 1: we've all got kind of a public person and we've 308 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,560 Speaker 1: all got kind of away we you know, addressed these 309 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: meetings and then we've got a behind closed doors our 310 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 1: players of how we are as well. And it's fun 311 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: to see kind of when the personalities let your hair 312 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: down a little bit with your guys of how everybody 313 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: kind of plays off each other,
