Now 0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:41.960 I'm enjoying. 0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:43.680 Coming home to the crib, even for a few hours 0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:47.080 obvious sleep by ten thirty eleven at the latest. 0:03:47.080 --> 0:03:48.960 So I mean, I mean, I'm enjoying. 0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:50.440 It right right. You got to take care of the 0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:52.520 pregnant wife. You gotta make sure she good with her 0:03:52.520 --> 0:03:53.280 feet a little bit. 0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:56.440 Hey, you know, your time, but her time, that's it. 0:03:57.160 --> 0:03:58.840 So how you feel it? You know, last year was 0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:01.280 kind of chaotic. Obviously it was your best season, second 0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:03.320 team off pro. You played at a really high level, 0:04:03.360 --> 0:04:05.840 But in terms of that building, that seemed to be 0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:08.320 a lot of chaos, especially when Alan Williams kind of 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:11.400 resigned out of nowhere. Then Hebert Flutes took over the 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:14.040 play calls, and like, what was it like in the 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:15.000 building at that time? 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:18.320 Honestly, man, it was a lot of up and downs 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:20.440 because I felt like, of course, coming off that year 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:24.039 we went three or fourteen, it was tough, so I 0:04:24.040 --> 0:04:25.880 think kind of just coming of course we had a 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:29.240 TJ tremain, we added a few more pieces on defense. 0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:31.760 So going into the year, I felt like it it 0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:34.080 was kind of hopeful, and then a lot of things 0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:36.560 kind of just started trend in the wrong direction for us, 0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:38.800 so it kind of it was tough. 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:39.080 Again. 0:04:39.200 --> 0:04:41.120 I mean, we had a streak I think of almost 0:04:41.160 --> 0:04:44.240 like seventeen games straight of losing or something like that, 0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:46.520 So I mean for us it was well. For me, 0:04:47.000 --> 0:04:49.240 I know, it was hard just going through, of course 0:04:49.240 --> 0:04:51.440 a different regime and then not having the success and 0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:54.520 then losing and losing again, like you said, having Alla 0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:56.839 Williams stepped down, and then kind of not knowing where 0:04:56.839 --> 0:04:58.320 things were want to go from there. So I mean, 0:04:58.440 --> 0:05:00.600 for me, it was honestly a lot of uncertainty. Man, 0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:02.720 I'm on my contract. Yeah, I'm like, man, I'm trying 0:05:02.760 --> 0:05:05.200 to find somewhere to be stable. 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:07.520 And and then it's like, no, I'm not feeling a whole 0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:08.240 lot of stability. 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:10.919 So I mean, really just going through all that, and 0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:12.640 of course you start kind of hearing the talks of 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:14.680 if we're going to have the head coach a game 0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:17.600 for the third year, kind of just all of those 0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:19.599 things start to kind of creep into your mind and 0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:22.200 then I think for me, honestly, it was just like man, 0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:24.040 at the end of the day, my table is my resume. 0:05:24.120 --> 0:05:25.880 I just got to continue to go out here and 0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:27.800 who at the end of the day. So, I mean, 0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:29.800 for me it was it was up and down. But 0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:31.440 at the end of their business is business, and I 0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:33.160 know for me, I had to handle my best way 0:05:33.200 --> 0:05:35.880 I could and things started turning around for us for 0:05:35.920 --> 0:05:38.599 the good. So I mean, things worked out well, but 0:05:38.600 --> 0:05:41.279 it definitely did start out really shaky and didn't really 0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:42.479 know how the future was gonna look. 0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:46.320 Yeah, I mean that that's what it seemed like. I was. 0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:49.039 It's always unfortunate because when you're in a contract year 0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:51.039 you out there, you want to play good football and 0:05:51.080 --> 0:05:53.359 be part of a good defense. And you know y'all 0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:56.000 had some pieces, but you know, your d line needed 0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:57.560 a little bit of help, and I think they found 0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:00.320 some help. You know, you needed some help offense league 0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:02.600 because they weren't necessarily doing what they needed to do, 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.920 but you still were abrashan and get your money. They 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.679 franchised tagged you, I know, you know when that happened. 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:11.160 They happened to a couple of corners and everybody was uncertain. 0:06:11.200 --> 0:06:12.320 It was like you sneed. 0:06:13.440 --> 0:06:15.800 I was like, damn it just really not paying the 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:16.480 corners this year. 0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:17.640 Yeah, yeah, fact. 0:06:18.080 --> 0:06:20.200 And then they got it figured out. So was there 0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:22.000 any ever a time in there they called you and 0:06:22.000 --> 0:06:23.919 we're like, hey, you know, we might trade you. I 0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:26.000 talk to your agent or your agent was like, well, 0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:28.360 you know, they're talking to teams and trying to figure 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:28.680 it out. 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:33.520 Honestly, not that I know of, at least not that 0:06:33.560 --> 0:06:35.560 they told my agent. I know, even when I did 0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:38.919 ask for a trade right at that trade deadline, I 0:06:38.960 --> 0:06:40.680 know it was again kind of going back to what 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:42.560 we were talking about earlier, just kind of trying to 0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:43.760 find a steady home. 0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:45.640 Things weren't going good. So I'm like, man, at end 0:06:45.680 --> 0:06:46.960 of the day, I'm trying to go find. 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:50.000 Somewhere to get paid one and then also to go 0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:52.800 have a chance to win. But I feel like they 0:06:53.600 --> 0:06:55.760 knew what they were doing, and they they declined the 0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.400 first one, except that the second one and then gave 0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:00.120 me an opportunity to go see something. But at the 0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:02.280 end of the day, it was one situations where they 0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:04.360 weren't going to no, but no other team was going 0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:07.240 to give up all that just for for for a corner. 0:07:07.240 --> 0:07:09.400 That's something you can do for a cornerback first rounds 0:07:09.400 --> 0:07:11.280 and all that. So, I mean they made it, they 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:12.920 made it tough, but it ended up working out. But 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:15.400 I think too, when they got to the off season, 0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:18.280 there was definitely no trade involved. I thought he was 0:07:18.400 --> 0:07:21.160 very open and transparent that I wasn't gonna be No, 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:23.640 I wasn't going nowhere. They weren't gonna trade me or 0:07:23.640 --> 0:07:25.800 deal me anywhere, And if they had to use the 0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:28.120 tag twice, then of course that was what would have 0:07:28.120 --> 0:07:30.920 been done. But there was Yeah, I didn't think I 0:07:30.960 --> 0:07:33.120 was ever gonna go anywhere. After I'd say, they didn't 0:07:33.120 --> 0:07:34.240 trade me at the deadline? 0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:38.040 Yeah, I mean your homegrown talent, you know. Yeah, any 0:07:38.080 --> 0:07:41.040 good organization you got to keep your homegrown talent, especially 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:43.360 the ones that develop into Pro Bowl All Pro players. 0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:45.360 If you letting them go, then what's the what's. 0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:48.280 The Yeah, shut it all down. 0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:51.240 Just shut it down. But y'all, you got some new 0:07:51.280 --> 0:07:54.000 teammates this off season. Obviously, Caleb came in with all 0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:57.720 the expectations and k ran you into that that gauntlet 0:07:57.760 --> 0:07:59.960 of an interview and he gave you all that headache, 0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:03.040 but you got Keenan, you got wrong, and then you 0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:06.800 already had DJ tell me because Keenan. Now, for those 0:08:06.800 --> 0:08:09.000 who will play corner and those who don't deal with 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:11.560 the Keenans and the Davante's and the dusk ball ones 0:08:11.560 --> 0:08:14.920 of the world, understand, he got some stuff back. 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:18.040 So something different, something completely different. 0:08:18.120 --> 0:08:20.720 So how has it been? You know, I know you've 0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:22.960 gone against him, but being teammates with him and getting 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:24.800 to see his work ethic day in and day out, 0:08:24.840 --> 0:08:26.800 and just kind of teammate and player he is. 0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:31.120 Honestly, it's crazy because you see his personality when just 0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:33.360 like throughout the league. Of course you score touchdowns and 0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:35.400 do his little dance, but he actually cool, like a 0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:38.240 cool guy. Like, yeah, I know he's a little older. 0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:40.440 I think he's like thirty two on pushing thirty three. 0:08:40.440 --> 0:08:42.400 I think, so, I mean kind of just for him 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:44.440 to be that I'm not evenna say that old, but 0:08:44.480 --> 0:08:47.120 in football years, for him to be a old head, 0:08:47.679 --> 0:08:48.920 he's definitely still young. 0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:50.600 He has a young, young soul. 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:52.920 He can go out there and talk to the rookies, 0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:54.720 or he can talk with the ogs and the bets. 0:08:54.760 --> 0:08:56.560 He's been around. You can talk to him about anything 0:08:56.640 --> 0:08:57.040 every day. 0:08:57.160 --> 0:08:59.880 He has a good, fun, loud personality, so I mean 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:02.720 definitely makes him be in locker room a lot easier 0:09:02.720 --> 0:09:03.760 because it's not like he's. 0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:05.200 Just on the old head that come in, put his 0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:05.800 head down and leave. 0:09:05.920 --> 0:09:08.560 Like now he's gonna crack some Joe's, talk to some guys, 0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:11.600 play some card games, whatever whatever it is. He's definitely 0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:13.520 an open guy. But as far as competing, I mean, 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:15.720 I love competing against him. I mean when, of course 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:17.480 we got all those guys for me, I'm like, hey, 0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:19.559 they ain't gonna come in here and work like naw, 0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:22.160 this ain't gonna be just the offensive show just for me, 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:24.760 especially like I always love Keenan games, so it's like 0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:27.160 when we when he came, I'm like, oh no, hey, 0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:28.800 I need to Hey, I'm trying to lock him up 0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:30.800 and so like. So I mean, for me, that was 0:09:30.800 --> 0:09:32.800 always like my mentality. But it's one of those things 0:09:32.800 --> 0:09:35.480 that we can definitely have that competition, but we can 0:09:35.520 --> 0:09:38.960 also still talk and still be cool. But it's definitely 0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:41.400 nothing but competition with a guy like that. I feel 0:09:41.400 --> 0:09:43.320 like he's somebody who can come in here and really 0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:45.120 make you better as a corner for me, that's not 0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:47.640 somebody his style of games than somebody that you see often. 0:09:47.720 --> 0:09:50.920 So I think being able to get the difference in DJ, 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:53.720 the big catch guy, the after catch type of guy, 0:09:53.760 --> 0:09:56.160 then you have Keenan, a more savvy route runner. 0:09:56.400 --> 0:09:58.280 You kind of get you kind of get it all 0:09:58.360 --> 0:09:59.839 with him and DJ and. 0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:03.480 Then learning coming in bringing him young fresh legs into 0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:06.560 the feel like it's definitely something that you definitely gonna 0:10:06.600 --> 0:10:07.120 have to get better. 0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:08.640 And for me, I've tooken the challenge on. 0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:10.120 I mean, I was trying to go out there and 0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:12.080 go as long as I can without giving him a 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:14.840 catching one on one. So I mean, I'm just trying 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.079 to find ways to push myself and to push. 0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:17.520 Them as well. 0:10:17.679 --> 0:10:20.040 I mean, y'all got a really good secondary and and 0:10:20.160 --> 0:10:23.520 y'all have had it for a couple of years. Brisker 0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:26.000 is gonna be a good player. Young Kyler got a 0:10:26.080 --> 0:10:27.640 chance to get to know him and watch him when 0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:29.960 he was at U DUBH. He's gonna be a really 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.520 good player. Y'all got the d line kind of roaring. 0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:35.600 Eric Washington's in the fold, and I know he's bringing 0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:38.520 line to the Buffalo scheme to y'all the quarter stuff. 0:10:39.400 --> 0:10:41.640 How has that transition been for you as a corner, 0:10:41.679 --> 0:10:43.360 because I know y'all ran a little bit of cover too. 0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:45.800 I've seen you make quite a few plays. This guy's 0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:48.200 cover two, jumping down, coming out the flag, going to 0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:51.000 the seventh. Has it been much of an adjustment for 0:10:51.040 --> 0:10:52.920 you just getting to learn the new playbook or have 0:10:53.080 --> 0:10:55.520 they just kind of like kept the playbook and tightened 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:57.200 it up a little bit and maybe sprinkle a little 0:10:57.280 --> 0:10:57.800 new stuff in. 0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:01.320 Yeah, No, it's good exact. They're really just sprinkling the 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:03.880 new some new things in. I know even last year. 0:11:03.880 --> 0:11:05.880 It's funny, the one the pick that you talk about, 0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:10.920 we were really in poems. So you, I promise you, 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:12.720 because look look look look hear. 0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:13.280 Me, hear me, hear me. 0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:15.960 I seen him for Mason, So on my head, I'm like, 0:11:16.640 --> 0:11:18.440 I know I'm to the field. 0:11:18.520 --> 0:11:19.440 He sees me off. 0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:21.719 He probably gonna try to bang this fire yard in, 0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:23.040 but I already knew it was a fire yard and 0:11:23.040 --> 0:11:25.560 they wanted seven behind it, So I'm like, okay, so 0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:27.080 I'm kind of seeing it and I'm in my ham 0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:28.480 and no, I'm gonna make a play. I don't like 0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:31.120 just catching that little pass and tackling it. So I'm like, 0:11:31.160 --> 0:11:33.160 if he throws this short round, I'm gonna drive it. 0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:36.000 So sure enough he called it for me. Look I 0:11:36.040 --> 0:11:38.920 took off boom. I seen him pumps. I'm like, damn, 0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:40.840 I gotta get out of there and help get that. 0:11:41.400 --> 0:11:43.400 So I got I stuck my foot in the ground. 0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:44.040 Got out there. He threw it. 0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:46.560 I'm like, oh, I got it. I took it. With 0:11:46.600 --> 0:11:49.000 everybody like seeing it, it was oh yeah, cover too great, 0:11:49.080 --> 0:11:51.560 high law. I'm like, nah, I was being greedy and 0:11:51.600 --> 0:11:54.920 I got yeah. No, I was trying. 0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:56.440 I was trying to make a play for so but 0:11:56.600 --> 0:11:59.520 it definitely worked out. But really just for for this, 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:01.440 for this this year, and what we're doing is really 0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:04.000 a lot of the same things we did last year. 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:06.400 Conda is trying to bring it all together, like you said, 0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:08.439 with the Cover two, the Cover three that we were 0:12:08.480 --> 0:12:11.440 heavy on at first and now and bringing in some 0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:14.440 quarters and ponds, different things, trying to give different looks. 0:12:14.800 --> 0:12:16.480 Things like that. I feel like it'll be really good 0:12:16.520 --> 0:12:16.840 for us. 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:18.920 And then of course adding that pressure up front and 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:21.360 combining with the different coverages and looks on the back end, 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:23.480 I feel like, well, we can be really dangerous. 0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:26.160 Yeah, I mean bringing in Montest Sweat was big. You know, 0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:28.360 I don't think people give him credit for how good 0:12:28.400 --> 0:12:30.600 he is and how consistent he's been the last I 0:12:30.640 --> 0:12:33.480 mean four or five years, he's been really really owning, 0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:36.320 really one of the best players. But what about Rome, 0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:38.400 Rome was looking I can't I couldn't get a good 0:12:38.440 --> 0:12:40.440 feel for him when he was at UW, even though 0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:42.040 we watched a lot of their games. But you know, 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:45.280 playing corner receivers that big, you can't tell if they 0:12:45.320 --> 0:12:47.880 really got wiggle like that because you know, not everybody 0:12:47.880 --> 0:12:50.000 pressed them, and some of the dudes pressed ain't really 0:12:50.080 --> 0:12:54.520 like that. And that's a but what So, what do 0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:56.760 you think of his game? Initially? Obviously he gonna have 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.120 room to grow. He may grow into something totally different 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:01.640 from what he is, but just as a rookie coming in. 0:13:03.600 --> 0:13:05.920 Now, I think just overall, I feel like he has 0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:08.600 a very a very solid game, a very smooth game 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:11.280 just going out. I think for me, the biggest thing 0:13:11.360 --> 0:13:13.559 that he he'll learn. 0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:15.800 And that he is learning, is being. 0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:18.280 Able to be crafty in some of those routes, especially 0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:21.320 going against more savvy vent that guys that kind of 0:13:21.559 --> 0:13:24.119 can put some things together that can look at formations, 0:13:24.120 --> 0:13:26.400 that can look at field position where you're at and 0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:28.160 release it. You're kinda have to add a little flavor 0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:29.800 to it, and I feel he'll learn that. He'll get that, 0:13:29.880 --> 0:13:32.560 especially having Keen in the same room. He'll definitely give him, 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:34.280 give him some of those tools. But I thought he's 0:13:34.320 --> 0:13:38.160 definitely an athletic guy, a good contested catch guy. 0:13:38.200 --> 0:13:38.480 For sure. 0:13:38.480 --> 0:13:40.200 He can go up there and make some really good 0:13:40.200 --> 0:13:42.640 contested catches. So I think overall, I feel like the 0:13:42.760 --> 0:13:44.640 ceiling is very, very high for him. I feel like 0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:48.400 he has everything physically, is just again adding that savviness 0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:50.439 to IQ to some of his routes that I think 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:51.880 it will take him really to the next level. 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:59.199 Game Time is an authorized ticket marketplace of Major League Baseball, 0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:03.520 which may thanks getting tickets easier and faster.

I think, I think, I mean, 0:14:42.480 --> 0:14:45.320 having Keenan in there and even DJ for for for 0:14:45.360 --> 0:14:47.440 a young kid is going to be I mean it's 0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.520 gonna be an outstanding and I mean having all of 0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:51.600 them for for KLYP is going to be. I mean, 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:57.600 who can ask? I said, no doubt, how's it doing hard? 0:14:57.720 --> 0:15:00.160 Notots because I prayed we never got on that. I 0:15:00.240 --> 0:15:03.200 was playing like it got the cameras in the building 0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:05.240 all the time. You can't really say what you want 0:15:05.280 --> 0:15:07.800 to say. You can't just be yourself all the time. 0:15:08.400 --> 0:15:10.280 Has that been kind of annoying or has it been 0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.280 kind of like because some people use it to elevate 0:15:12.320 --> 0:15:15.560 their brand and elevate their platform into you know, last 0:15:15.640 --> 0:15:17.720 year everybody was talking about a Rod and what he 0:15:17.880 --> 0:15:20.240 was doing throughout the year, and it may you know, 0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:22.320 I think it changed some people's opinion about it, But 0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:23.120 how has it been for you? 0:15:24.480 --> 0:15:26.760 Honestly, I don't I don't really mind it. 0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:28.800 Honestly, I felt like because a lot of guys like 0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:30.800 you miked up and all j I can't talk to you. 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:32.400 I'm like, man, at the end of the day, this 0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:33.560 is what like to me. 0:15:33.960 --> 0:15:35.880 I'm gonna be who I am, like everybody should be 0:15:35.960 --> 0:15:38.040 be themselves. And of course there's a level of certain 0:15:38.080 --> 0:15:40.480 things we can can't talk about, but I fly for 0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:42.760 the most part, I feel like about ninety percent of 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:44.560 things is all is all good. I mean, at the 0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:46.200 end of the day, I feel like it's all about 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:49.720 giving people the insight, like the inside scoop of what 0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:52.320 it's like being in the NFL, what it's like being 0:15:52.960 --> 0:15:55.240 in the training camp. Probably depending on what time of 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:56.880 the year you got the hard knocks. But I probly 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.560 for the most part, I'm myself, like if I miked 0:15:59.600 --> 0:16:02.560 up or I don't care, like they're gonna to see 0:16:02.640 --> 0:16:05.280 see me for what it is, se the situation for 0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:07.400 what it is in our quarters, the professional side of it. 0:16:07.480 --> 0:16:10.440 You gotta protect certain conversations and certain things like that. 0:16:10.520 --> 0:16:13.320 But I mean, for me, it doesn't it doesn't bother me. 0:16:13.400 --> 0:16:15.320 I know some people in that, but now Mike will 0:16:15.360 --> 0:16:17.760 start kind of creeping up around over the top. 0:16:17.800 --> 0:16:20.520 People start kind of freezing up, not wanting to talk 0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:22.120 and do things like that, and I'm like, hey, man, 0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:24.360 they won't. They want the content, they want to see this. 0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:25.880 I mean, we just got to get the people what 0:16:25.920 --> 0:16:27.680 they want. It's no different than showing up on Sunday. 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:29.120 Don't nobody tighten up? 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:29.280 Then? 0:16:29.400 --> 0:16:30.960 Now we got to go out here and se who 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:32.400 you are right now. 0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:34.840 You got the right idea. They put that mic on me. 0:16:34.880 --> 0:16:36.640 I did not care. I let everybody know. Look, I 0:16:36.720 --> 0:16:38.680 got the mic on me, but I'm about to go 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:42.520 out here and do what I always always do, no doubt. 0:16:43.200 --> 0:16:47.360 Well you got you got paid. There's some some momentum 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:50.120 in y'all team, some some optimism obviously with the young 0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:55.000 new young quarterbacks, some offensive weapons, defensive firepower. Obviously y'all 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:57.280 were the number one scoring defense in the second half 0:16:57.320 --> 0:17:00.280 of the season. Once Montes sweat out there like that 0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:02.840 had to give you guys some confidence of hey, you 0:17:02.840 --> 0:17:04.520 know what I mean, we can't put it together when 0:17:04.560 --> 0:17:06.920 we need to and when everything's going away we have. 0:17:07.200 --> 0:17:10.040 So what are your expectations for your team and your 0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:12.720 defense coming into the season. Because I've been part of 0:17:12.960 --> 0:17:16.679 some really good defenses and it just sometimes it's just 0:17:17.119 --> 0:17:19.600 holding each other to the standard every day and not 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:22.760 really getting caught up on like hey man, you know 0:17:22.800 --> 0:17:24.920 we're chasing these dudes, so we're trying to be better 0:17:24.960 --> 0:17:27.080 than them, or we're trying to it's just really stacking 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:29.600 your days and really one day at a time, hold 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:32.359 each other accountable with respect. Like you can't really go 0:17:32.400 --> 0:17:33.800 out there and be like, man, you suck man, what 0:17:33.840 --> 0:17:34.560 are you doing out there? 0:17:34.560 --> 0:17:38.320 Because that yeah, you can't like that. 0:17:39.680 --> 0:17:39.840 Now. 0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:43.000 I think really for me, the biggest thing is improving 0:17:43.040 --> 0:17:45.159 on our finish. I mean, I find for us we 0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:47.119 had a few games I know I can speak to 0:17:47.160 --> 0:17:51.160 Detroit and Cleveland we were up winning and then lost 0:17:51.160 --> 0:17:53.520 the game in the fourth quarter, lost the game coming 0:17:53.560 --> 0:17:55.879 down to those last couple of minutes to Whereas like 0:17:55.920 --> 0:17:58.160 for us, that puts us in a in a different position. 0:17:58.240 --> 0:18:01.520 I fight, just the bigger thing for defense finishing two 0:18:01.560 --> 0:18:05.159 minute drills, finishing just that fourth quarter. I think for 0:18:05.320 --> 0:18:07.560 us it really just starts with the preparation. I feel 0:18:07.560 --> 0:18:10.200 like we can't it really top to bottom. I fight, 0:18:10.240 --> 0:18:12.080 we can't let up off the gas. When you know 0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:14.760 you start getting in that two minute mode, you kind 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:16.800 of just start playing back like naw, we gotta still 0:18:16.840 --> 0:18:19.320 continue to be aggressive and really well we well, I 0:18:19.440 --> 0:18:21.159 like to say it slip people's throats, like now we 0:18:21.200 --> 0:18:23.120 can't just come out here and okay, yeah and then 0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:24.439 just think we're gonna stop right now. 0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:26.160 They still trying to win the game, like we gotta 0:18:26.600 --> 0:18:27.479 start that right now. 0:18:27.520 --> 0:18:29.760 And I feel like for me and what I like 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:32.439 to do is I'm always getting extra work out the practice. 0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:34.200 So for me, that's part of like my finishing where 0:18:34.200 --> 0:18:36.680 it's like, Okay, I finished practice. I gotta finish my work, 0:18:36.760 --> 0:18:38.320 so I know when it is in the fourth quarter, 0:18:38.359 --> 0:18:40.920 I still have that dog mentality of like, nah, I'm 0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:42.760 locking this fool up, no matter if it's two minutes, 0:18:42.800 --> 0:18:45.240 four minute, whatever it may be, if they down ten, 0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:47.080 if they down three. Like now, at end of the day, 0:18:47.119 --> 0:18:49.880 I'm still in that mode to finish, and I fight 0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:52.320 for me. I'm trying to push guys, get guys to 0:18:52.400 --> 0:18:55.160 understand like, nah, we we have a great team, but hey, 0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:57.280 it's still gonna be a situation when we gotta finish 0:18:57.280 --> 0:18:59.760 guys off. It's not just gonna be handed tools. We 0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:01.359 got to go out there and take it against a 0:19:01.400 --> 0:19:03.399 man's will. So I fight for us. That's really but 0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:05.080 I feel like we can improve on and if we 0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:06.920 can do that, I know we'll we'll win a lot 0:19:06.960 --> 0:19:11.280 more games for sure. Who you bringing with you as 0:19:11.320 --> 0:19:11.880 far as well. 0:19:13.000 --> 0:19:14.720 I heard you say I'm getting some work out of 0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:15.960 the practice, but you're by yourself. 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:18.280 Oh no, no, no, no, no, I'm not by myself. I 0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:19.399 put like that. 0:19:19.680 --> 0:19:21.720 I tell him, Hey, I got plenty of work for God, 0:19:22.160 --> 0:19:23.640 if you want to take it. He I don't got 0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:25.560 no hit him. He's no taxes, no, none of that. 0:19:25.600 --> 0:19:27.200 If you want to come out here and get some work, 0:19:28.240 --> 0:19:30.280 I'm here. It's offer to everybody. So I mean, right 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:32.560 now I got I got two rookies and then I 0:19:32.560 --> 0:19:35.680 got another guy who just came from the CFL. They're 0:19:35.720 --> 0:19:38.440 the most consistent ones right now. I know Takwan, he's 0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:41.159 working out with me every day. Before he kind of 0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:43.320 got into some injury things, so I know when he 0:19:43.359 --> 0:19:45.640 gets back he'll be back with me. But right now, 0:19:45.760 --> 0:19:48.760 now everybody knows, like, hey, Jalen is here after practice 0:19:48.800 --> 0:19:49.280 getting work. 0:19:49.480 --> 0:19:50.280 It's up to them. 0:19:50.320 --> 0:19:53.679 So I mean, I can only bring those around who 0:19:53.760 --> 0:19:54.479 want to be around. 0:19:55.320 --> 0:19:59.359 What this will be my two cents again, Your man 0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:03.479 Dood who used to be something in our group, we 0:20:03.720 --> 0:20:06.920 everybody gotta go. Everybody is back there or nobody's back 0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:09.840 there because because in the fourth quarter, like you said, 0:20:09.880 --> 0:20:12.120 everything you say it is facts and big facts. That's 0:20:12.160 --> 0:20:14.359 winning football. When if you got to be ready fourth 0:20:14.440 --> 0:20:18.479 quarter game on line, everybody's hired. But if only Jalen 0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:22.040 Johnson's ready and everybody else ain't ready, we still loose. 0:20:22.960 --> 0:20:25.840 And so what we found out is no matter how 0:20:25.880 --> 0:20:28.520 strong one of us is, if all of us ain't 0:20:28.520 --> 0:20:32.080 that strong, we still loose. And so we if we're 0:20:32.080 --> 0:20:34.480 gonna do extra work, we gonna do it like it 0:20:34.520 --> 0:20:36.760 ain't really an option. That's the standard. You guys to 0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:39.720 do that because you challenge them with their own ambition, 0:20:39.880 --> 0:20:42.680 or do you want to win? Is championship what we 0:20:42.720 --> 0:20:43.800 want to do? Or we just want to be in 0:20:43.840 --> 0:20:46.040 the NFL like we want to be the best defensive 0:20:46.080 --> 0:20:48.159 football or we just want to be some guys out 0:20:48.200 --> 0:20:50.800 there that play in the NFL like and a lot 0:20:50.840 --> 0:20:52.720 of the guys got that kind of pride and say, man, 0:20:52.720 --> 0:20:55.439 I don't want to be the best, then make your 0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:58.040 actions match words, brother like, because I ain't gonna cut 0:20:58.080 --> 0:21:00.760 you out. I can't make you do nothing, and I'm 0:21:00.760 --> 0:21:02.320 not trying to run you into the ground because I 0:21:02.359 --> 0:21:04.640 know we're in trading camp. But if we talking technique 0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:07.560 as a corner, you can always get better. I don't 0:21:07.600 --> 0:21:09.840 give dang how good you are at your press. You 0:21:09.840 --> 0:21:12.400 can always get two more reps, three more reps, get 0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:15.400 your eyeplacement, get the receiver. Give me three releases real quick, 0:21:15.480 --> 0:21:18.240 like you can always get better. And those few reps 0:21:18.480 --> 0:21:21.400 when you tired, when your legs, when you everything's sweating, 0:21:21.800 --> 0:21:24.120 like those are when you need it. Lock in real quick. 0:21:24.400 --> 0:21:27.040 Give me too of your best go out there, get keenan, hey, 0:21:27.119 --> 0:21:28.600 keen it, come on. I know it's gonna be tough. 0:21:28.600 --> 0:21:29.840 Give me, just give me two, three of them, and 0:21:29.840 --> 0:21:32.720 I guarantee you won't say no, because that's not how 0:21:32.960 --> 0:21:36.040 like winners, that's not how you got here by saying 0:21:36.080 --> 0:21:39.480 no to work and so to be that kind of leader. 0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:42.840 Leaders lead by bringing everybody along. It's not usually you 0:21:42.840 --> 0:21:44.560 don't even lead from the front. You lead from the back. 0:21:44.560 --> 0:21:47.399 If you got to run laps and the time of 0:21:47.440 --> 0:21:49.800 the last person is the one that hey man, everybody 0:21:49.840 --> 0:21:51.560 got to come in by three thirty, and that last 0:21:51.560 --> 0:21:53.719 person's been coming in at three thirty three, then you 0:21:53.760 --> 0:21:55.719 go behind, and you make sure you're coming in at 0:21:55.720 --> 0:21:58.119 three thirty because you can come in first, ain't have 0:21:58.119 --> 0:21:59.760 to run another one because he came in last. 0:22:00.000 --> 0:22:03.400 Feel what I'm saying, No, no, that I appreciate that. 0:22:03.840 --> 0:22:07.160 It's all love. It's all love. I can't I can't 0:22:07.200 --> 0:22:09.600 wait to hear why you wanted to play corner? 0:22:10.800 --> 0:22:15.280 Geez? Why did I want to play? Honestly, it's crazy. 0:22:15.280 --> 0:22:17.760 I didn't even start off really playing corner like I know, 0:22:18.080 --> 0:22:21.320 of course, I alway said, nah, probably corner. I started off, 0:22:21.359 --> 0:22:23.320 of course, with all league running back. I thought I 0:22:23.359 --> 0:22:26.399 was Reggie Bush, play linebacker like I wanted to be 0:22:26.480 --> 0:22:28.439 an action like my dad. Like my dad grew my 0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:30.800 older brother to play corner from Dye beauty Boy, like 0:22:30.800 --> 0:22:32.800 eight years old. My brother played corner all the way 0:22:32.880 --> 0:22:35.879 ver until he couldn't play football no more. So even 0:22:35.960 --> 0:22:37.840 for me, I'm like, nah, I want to be an action. 0:22:37.920 --> 0:22:39.720 I want to be an action. And then as I 0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:42.240 got older, people started getting a little bigger. 0:22:42.240 --> 0:22:43.879 I'm like, nah, I ain't nobody playing a running back 0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:45.240 no more. HiT's a little different. 0:22:45.720 --> 0:22:48.359 So I kind of slowly started working my way outside 0:22:48.400 --> 0:22:50.440 play a little receiver. And I still that's why I 0:22:50.440 --> 0:22:52.840 started playing corner safety kind of learning boat. 0:22:53.119 --> 0:22:54.800 Then I got to high school play corner. 0:22:55.720 --> 0:22:57.840 My freshman ye or sophomore year, I played corner, but 0:22:57.880 --> 0:23:00.359 I sat behind two D one guys, so I was 0:23:00.359 --> 0:23:01.080 behind them. 0:23:00.920 --> 0:23:01.679 Play more receiver. 0:23:02.080 --> 0:23:04.600 So I really didn't get a lot of like touches 0:23:04.640 --> 0:23:06.560 that until really my junior year of high school. 0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:10.800 So I played. My junior year was solid decent. 0:23:10.600 --> 0:23:12.800 And then really I started working with my brother, work 0:23:12.840 --> 0:23:14.520 with my dad really getting heavy because I was two 0:23:14.560 --> 0:23:15.240 sport athletes too. 0:23:15.280 --> 0:23:17.240 I played football, basketball, So I. 0:23:17.240 --> 0:23:20.879 Never really honed in like on my craft truly, but 0:23:20.920 --> 0:23:23.320 really my junior was my junior year hit That's what 0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:25.119 I really started honing in on it. And I was 0:23:25.160 --> 0:23:28.119 like I always listened to the conversation my dad and 0:23:28.200 --> 0:23:30.399 my brother had and I knew a lot, Like I 0:23:30.440 --> 0:23:32.560 was really like smart. I was able to retain the information, 0:23:32.600 --> 0:23:34.480 but I never had the opportunity to apply it. So 0:23:34.480 --> 0:23:37.159 when I started really playing it, I started really applying in. 0:23:37.240 --> 0:23:38.760 And I know, we was at the seven on seven 0:23:38.840 --> 0:23:41.919 practice one time, and my dad and my brother like 0:23:42.119 --> 0:23:43.960 they're big on work, so like if they don't see 0:23:43.960 --> 0:23:45.520 you from the work, they're like, nah, it ain't like 0:23:45.520 --> 0:23:48.000 it ain't it. So I was doing my little thing 0:23:48.080 --> 0:23:49.679 on the side. And so we was at seven on 0:23:49.760 --> 0:23:52.159 seven prior. They was trying to give every look, every route, 0:23:52.400 --> 0:23:54.320 and I was just defending locking it up, locking it up, 0:23:54.320 --> 0:23:55.800 locking it up. And at first it was like all 0:23:55.880 --> 0:23:58.639 this luck is luck. They kept trying challenging me. I 0:23:58.720 --> 0:24:01.000 kept doing it boom, and it was okay, you might 0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:03.600 be somebody. So we went to seven or seven tournament, 0:24:04.520 --> 0:24:06.600 ended up locking up some four or five star guys. 0:24:06.640 --> 0:24:09.280 My brother was with me talking trash to him. So 0:24:09.400 --> 0:24:10.480 really from there it was just. 0:24:10.440 --> 0:24:12.040 One of those things that's like, nah, I can really 0:24:12.200 --> 0:24:14.320 be somebody in this and it's not just be something 0:24:14.320 --> 0:24:16.480 that was forced throw me that I was born into. 0:24:16.560 --> 0:24:18.720 But it's like, nah, I really took that and took 0:24:18.720 --> 0:24:21.000 the extreme prize. So I mean, really, ever since my 0:24:21.080 --> 0:24:22.760 junior year, I've been fully committed to. 0:24:23.119 --> 0:24:25.120 Being out on the island lock as people up. 0:24:25.920 --> 0:24:27.679 So what did your brother ever get into the leg 0:24:27.880 --> 0:24:30.720 or he just played college or how far did to go? Yeah? 0:24:30.800 --> 0:24:33.640 Nah, he played at UCLA, He played at UCLA, finishes 0:24:33.720 --> 0:24:35.600 last year at Present State. 0:24:36.040 --> 0:24:37.840 Really it was crazy, I till we bought time. He 0:24:37.920 --> 0:24:39.520 was he was. He was better than me, like. 0:24:39.640 --> 0:24:44.080 Physically, feed footwork, dog pressed off like he had it all. 0:24:44.160 --> 0:24:47.720 He was four star, went to UCLA, but he had 0:24:47.760 --> 0:24:50.040 we all kind of had the same thing. We had 0:24:50.040 --> 0:24:53.760 them shoulder issues. So he went to shoulders first year 0:24:54.119 --> 0:24:56.639 for shoulder his second year. So it's like by the 0:24:56.640 --> 0:24:58.960 time you get healthier third year, they already brought two 0:24:58.960 --> 0:25:01.760 classes of moore and five star guys around, so it's 0:25:01.760 --> 0:25:04.840 like he was still in the mix, still getting in there, rotating, 0:25:05.680 --> 0:25:06.520 kind of got into it. 0:25:06.520 --> 0:25:08.240 A little bit with the coach on some things. 0:25:08.280 --> 0:25:10.639 Played a few games and it's like, okay, going on 0:25:10.680 --> 0:25:14.040 all fourth year, I only played in six seven games. 0:25:14.440 --> 0:25:16.840 They still bringing in four and five star dudes. So 0:25:16.880 --> 0:25:17.960 it's like after a. 0:25:17.960 --> 0:25:19.840 While he kind of just was like, hey, I already 0:25:19.880 --> 0:25:21.480 know kind of how this is shaping out, Like they're 0:25:21.480 --> 0:25:23.760 not about to keep messing with me all Like they 0:25:23.800 --> 0:25:25.159 got all they guys they bringing in. 0:25:25.240 --> 0:25:26.800 So he just ended up getting a degree. 0:25:26.600 --> 0:25:29.440 Finishing his last year at Pheland State went there, kind 0:25:29.440 --> 0:25:31.679 of got into the same cultural situation where it's like 0:25:31.680 --> 0:25:33.400 you coming from where you're coming from, trying to play 0:25:33.440 --> 0:25:34.400 a certain style of ball. 0:25:34.760 --> 0:25:36.120 They got their coach already. 0:25:36.800 --> 0:25:38.800 Then it's like you to turn to when was the 0:25:38.840 --> 0:25:40.639 last time you had some recent tape, because I mean 0:25:40.680 --> 0:25:42.439 the tape he did have a damn good tape, but 0:25:42.480 --> 0:25:43.520 it's like that. 0:25:43.480 --> 0:25:44.720 Was two years ago. 0:25:44.880 --> 0:25:46.920 So it's like he didn't really have a chance in 0:25:47.000 --> 0:25:48.000 him being five to nine. 0:25:48.600 --> 0:25:52.040 I mean, that's not that's not idea and in today's game. 0:25:52.160 --> 0:25:54.720 So yeah, nah, So he didn't end up getting a 0:25:54.720 --> 0:25:57.560 shot and he wasn't like a CF trying to force 0:25:57.600 --> 0:25:59.880 it and do nothing like that. So that's really after 0:25:59.880 --> 0:26:01.679 that that that's really when he turned into my trainer. 0:26:02.119 --> 0:26:04.000 Of course, he was still active in playing, so I 0:26:04.080 --> 0:26:06.560 moved him out to Utah with me, got an internship 0:26:06.560 --> 0:26:09.119 at Utah, and that ship we've been training. He's been 0:26:09.160 --> 0:26:12.680 a trainer, He trained dbs, He trains kids from four 0:26:12.760 --> 0:26:18.679 or five years old to whoever else. So yeah, uh, 0:26:18.800 --> 0:26:20.720 well we're from Cali, but he lives with me in 0:26:20.760 --> 0:26:23.160 the off season in season, so I mean he's he's 0:26:23.160 --> 0:26:26.280 always with me and has his clientele like in Chicago. 0:26:26.840 --> 0:26:29.040 Yeah yeah, so he got his clients out in Chicago. 0:26:29.119 --> 0:26:31.640 Coach a little seven on or tackle football team. 0:26:31.760 --> 0:26:35.600 So he's what's his training thing? God, we can give 0:26:35.640 --> 0:26:36.760 him a shot out real quick. 0:26:36.880 --> 0:26:39.560 Oh it's called elite athletic transformation. 0:26:40.200 --> 0:26:42.719 Hey. Hey, if you're in Chicago and you need some 0:26:42.800 --> 0:26:46.760 corner work, elite athletic transformations where you need. 0:26:46.640 --> 0:26:48.359 To be at no doubt. 0:26:48.359 --> 0:26:50.479 I love it. I love it, man, I love it. 0:26:50.520 --> 0:26:52.760 That's gonna be. That's pretty cool though, because I got 0:26:52.800 --> 0:26:54.320 a good relation. How many years different? 0:26:55.040 --> 0:26:56.080 Fo? He's four years older? 0:26:56.400 --> 0:27:00.560 Okay, mine is three? And boy, yeah he right there. 0:27:00.880 --> 0:27:02.719 Because they just paid the world for you, and then 0:27:02.760 --> 0:27:05.080 you come in behind me, you like I do better 0:27:05.080 --> 0:27:06.280 than what they did, and I'm good. 0:27:06.320 --> 0:27:09.680 That's it. You better stay healthy. I'll be good. 0:27:10.000 --> 0:27:12.120 I'll be good. I got the you appreciate your brother 0:27:12.160 --> 0:27:13.440 from putting the blueprint out there. 0:27:13.880 --> 0:27:15.760 I take it from here, no doubt. 0:27:16.320 --> 0:27:19.000 So are there any games you got circle, because I 0:27:19.040 --> 0:27:20.720 know you ain't scared to say what your feet to 0:27:20.760 --> 0:27:23.840 say on your schedule this year? Y'all got some good matchups, 0:27:23.880 --> 0:27:25.359 but anything in particular. 0:27:26.359 --> 0:27:27.120 I got a few. 0:27:27.240 --> 0:27:29.159 I mean, I'm not I don't know exactly when we 0:27:29.200 --> 0:27:31.520 play them all, but I'm looking forward to going against 0:27:31.560 --> 0:27:34.080 Calvin Ridley again. I haven't won again went up against 0:27:34.119 --> 0:27:36.520 him since my rookie year, so him of course, d 0:27:36.640 --> 0:27:39.680 hop hopefully he gets back healthy. So looking forward to 0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:41.600 going against that tandem and then show I know that 0:27:41.640 --> 0:27:44.960 next week we got some boys down in Houston, Diggs, Tank, 0:27:45.359 --> 0:27:49.000 Nico Collins, I'm looking forward to that. Who else we got? 0:27:49.000 --> 0:27:51.240 Who else we got? Of course Justin? I missed Justin 0:27:51.280 --> 0:27:53.480 for the last I think two years now. I was 0:27:53.520 --> 0:27:56.560 either heard he was hurt, So looking forward to going 0:27:56.560 --> 0:27:59.400 against him. Who else we got? 0:27:59.440 --> 0:28:03.120 Who else? That's different. I really just say those because 0:28:03.280 --> 0:28:04.639 ain't nobody jumped out at me. 0:28:04.760 --> 0:28:06.440 Yeah, I mean, of course Alm and Rad is always 0:28:06.480 --> 0:28:09.000 in the division and things like that, But I probably 0:28:09.040 --> 0:28:11.160 for the most part, I'm looking forward to to those. 0:28:11.280 --> 0:28:12.800 Oh, Sam France, that's. 0:28:12.600 --> 0:28:17.760 The game I'm looking forward to, not necessarily the matchup individually. 0:28:17.800 --> 0:28:20.400 Hopefully Brandon Ayuka is there, not then they I'm missing 0:28:20.440 --> 0:28:23.880 out on that one. But really other than that DK 0:28:24.200 --> 0:28:25.480 that you got to have on I haven't. 0:28:25.560 --> 0:28:28.400 I haven't seen him in my career, So looking forward 0:28:28.440 --> 0:28:29.720 to those ones. For sure. 0:28:30.119 --> 0:28:31.640 You got him at the end of the season too, 0:28:31.640 --> 0:28:32.880 we'll be we got that game. 0:28:34.520 --> 0:28:39.040 Uh think were in Chicago?

Who the best quarters in the National 0:28:50.360 --> 0:28:52.000 Football League right now outside of you? 0:28:55.680 --> 0:28:59.320 And we're just saying, are we asking my style or 0:28:59.320 --> 0:29:04.000 are we talking just like overall everyone your world. I'm 0:29:04.000 --> 0:29:07.040 gonna get I'm gonna get my style. I like because 0:29:07.040 --> 0:29:09.400 I feel like it's hard to I don't know. Everybody 0:29:09.440 --> 0:29:10.200 judges it different. 0:29:10.240 --> 0:29:13.400 Everybody can judge it by interceptions or whatever. But for me, 0:29:13.520 --> 0:29:16.040 I'm gonna if I had to put. 0:29:15.920 --> 0:29:19.240 These four guys on an island, I would probably say 0:29:19.280 --> 0:29:23.600 I'll go with Pat no in no order, I probably 0:29:23.600 --> 0:29:25.440 go Pat Denzel. 0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:33.640 Stars. Oh and I can't give myself for who else? 0:29:33.640 --> 0:29:34.120 Would I go? 0:29:34.440 --> 0:29:36.440 Yeah, look, we just gonna assume you on the list. 0:29:36.520 --> 0:29:37.880 But we need five. 0:29:38.360 --> 0:29:43.120 Right right right right right Ireland, Ireland, Ireland. 0:29:44.520 --> 0:29:46.400 I'm gonna go ahead and help and put some names 0:29:46.400 --> 0:29:50.120 out there. You gotta give some names playing at a 0:29:50.160 --> 0:29:54.840 real high level. Uh, who am I messing right now? 0:29:54.880 --> 0:29:57.760 Because he was just Steve Sneak killed in the playoffs 0:29:57.800 --> 0:30:00.160 last year. McDuffie killed in the playoffs last year. Here 0:30:00.600 --> 0:30:03.520 our various players at a high level. When he was going, 0:30:03.560 --> 0:30:05.080 he had a nice over run of four or five 0:30:05.160 --> 0:30:08.640 games where he had a book in each of those games. Uh, 0:30:09.160 --> 0:30:11.520 you know out in Seattle to reak. You know, they 0:30:11.560 --> 0:30:13.880 got the young young nickel that that's played at the 0:30:13.960 --> 0:30:21.600 high level. You got the big the whole big dog 0:30:21.720 --> 0:30:26.880 gay years, you got the slaves, you got, you got 0:30:27.400 --> 0:30:33.440 out out in Miami, Marsa. It's whatever you whatever you want. 0:30:34.000 --> 0:30:37.320 Oh that's uh mm hmm. 0:30:38.360 --> 0:30:41.560 That's tough because because Pat Patt is gonna be in 0:30:41.600 --> 0:30:45.080 that conversation all the time. Obviously, you played at high level, 0:30:45.080 --> 0:30:46.760 you get to be in that conversation all the time. 0:30:47.080 --> 0:30:49.160 Year when he's healthy, he's as good as they get. 0:30:50.120 --> 0:30:52.480 Marshawn just kind of been overshadowed because they haven't been 0:30:52.680 --> 0:30:57.200 very good as a team. H Denzel never really gets 0:30:57.200 --> 0:30:57.959 that much credit. 0:30:58.480 --> 0:31:03.320 Yeah no, I'll love I love Yeah No. 0:31:03.440 --> 0:31:05.680 I took some time to watch to watch those three 0:31:05.800 --> 0:31:07.360 so that thought. It was really hard for me because 0:31:07.400 --> 0:31:09.600 I just took I know, my off season. I was 0:31:09.640 --> 0:31:12.640 watching Path, I was watching Sauce, especially like Sauce. 0:31:12.680 --> 0:31:14.479 You hear a lot like you hear some people. Oh 0:31:14.480 --> 0:31:16.360 he's old rady. You hear some people say it's really good. 0:31:16.440 --> 0:31:18.000 I'm like, not damn that, I need to go watch 0:31:18.040 --> 0:31:21.080 my felt I'm like, nah, young boy guy, he got 0:31:21.120 --> 0:31:23.280 some things to him for sure. And and to me, 0:31:23.360 --> 0:31:25.400 it's like people are saying, oh he holds if he 0:31:25.400 --> 0:31:27.600 don't get called for it, he's not holding like then. 0:31:27.360 --> 0:31:30.240 Like damn, oh he does this, but he doesn't get caught. 0:31:30.480 --> 0:31:33.320 That's part. That's part of it. Pushed off all yeah, 0:31:33.440 --> 0:31:35.240 like hey, they pushed off. Nobody said, oh well he 0:31:35.280 --> 0:31:38.240 pushed off, Like nah, nobody, nobody cares. So I think 0:31:38.600 --> 0:31:40.000 for me, he usually what he got. 0:31:40.040 --> 0:31:41.960 I felt like it's really hard to give them or 0:31:42.720 --> 0:31:44.480 it's really hard to give them for I fight. 0:31:44.560 --> 0:31:46.080 The playing styles changed after that. 0:31:46.120 --> 0:31:49.640 I feel like I love I love watching Snead and McDuffie. 0:31:49.720 --> 0:31:52.680 I think it's hard. I feel like it's really hard 0:31:52.720 --> 0:31:55.160 to tell when they them boys get a lot of pressure. 0:31:55.760 --> 0:31:59.680 They get a lot Yeah yeah, but I said they 0:31:59.680 --> 0:32:02.840 get out of pressure. But I definitely love love their games. 0:32:02.840 --> 0:32:05.280 If I had to give you one, but I will 0:32:05.320 --> 0:32:08.040 say this, in fact, sisten them boys in man. 0:32:08.000 --> 0:32:12.719 All day, all the time. They pressed pressed up. 0:32:14.240 --> 0:32:14.959 Yeah, no they not. 0:32:15.000 --> 0:32:16.720 They not ducking no smoke for sure. 0:32:16.920 --> 0:32:19.280 What he did to wreaking that playoff game, people was like, 0:32:19.320 --> 0:32:21.400 oh man, that's crazy. I said, no, he practiced against 0:32:21.480 --> 0:32:24.640 him all the time. He has no fear. Used to 0:32:25.480 --> 0:32:29.520 I ain't got no fear. What what other corners that 0:32:29.600 --> 0:32:31.440 you when you came in or when you were at 0:32:31.520 --> 0:32:33.480 Utah that you were looking at You were like, man, 0:32:33.520 --> 0:32:35.360 I'm a model of my game after that, because you 0:32:35.480 --> 0:32:37.600 when you were coming up it was it was probably 0:32:37.680 --> 0:32:42.960 lead in there. Uh. Jalen was pretty much in his prime. 0:32:45.680 --> 0:32:48.480 Marshawan was young, but he was eating his first few 0:32:48.560 --> 0:32:49.320 years in the league. 0:32:50.000 --> 0:32:52.560 Slave was killing got modeled. Yeah, I was about to 0:32:52.560 --> 0:32:58.800 say I watched. I would say between Jalen Slade, Marshawan, Ja. 0:33:04.160 --> 0:33:07.480 Stepan Stepan right, I think you want there? 0:33:08.080 --> 0:33:10.280 Yes? No, no, no, for sure Gilmore for sure. 0:33:11.120 --> 0:33:14.720 Oh, I would probably say yeah. I honestly said those fires. 0:33:15.240 --> 0:33:18.240 I would say those five for sure coming in and 0:33:18.480 --> 0:33:21.560 out of college. Because again, I feel like you watch 0:33:21.560 --> 0:33:24.480 to me like I love Jaalen Ramsey's game as far. 0:33:24.360 --> 0:33:26.200 As like how he goes like I just love like 0:33:26.240 --> 0:33:26.960 his dog mentime. 0:33:27.000 --> 0:33:29.520 I feel like it's something like I cann't watch him 0:33:29.560 --> 0:33:31.360 necessarily and like, oh, I'm gonna. 0:33:31.120 --> 0:33:33.680 Go do that, Like nah, he just does. He just 0:33:33.720 --> 0:33:35.800 has some things that God gave him that he. 0:33:36.280 --> 0:33:38.120 Got everybody else. 0:33:38.440 --> 0:33:41.440 Yeah, yeah, he skipped everybody else. So now, but it's 0:33:41.440 --> 0:33:43.840 like looking at him, he gives you like when you 0:33:43.920 --> 0:33:46.200 watch him, it's like, nah, I gotta really be a dog. 0:33:46.280 --> 0:33:48.880 So I feel like I've always loved like his mentality. 0:33:48.920 --> 0:33:51.320 Of course, his ball skills going up and making those 0:33:51.720 --> 0:33:54.280 spectacular players, and just really his energy and energy. 0:33:54.280 --> 0:33:56.120 I feel he's very, very contagious. 0:33:56.720 --> 0:33:59.440 I feel like more so watching Gilmore, he's like Q 0:33:59.680 --> 0:34:03.080 Technie was always something that definitely stood out stood out 0:34:03.120 --> 0:34:05.440 to me, and that's something that I that I like as. 0:34:05.240 --> 0:34:08.400 Far as guy's being able to you shadow you take him. 0:34:08.080 --> 0:34:10.680 Like I'm not I'm not impressed by like the interception, 0:34:10.719 --> 0:34:12.960 I'm impressed by it, but you can put him on 0:34:13.040 --> 0:34:15.120 him and that guy's eliminated out the game. That's what 0:34:15.480 --> 0:34:18.359 That's what moves me more so than anything. So I 0:34:18.400 --> 0:34:20.640 love that about him. Even Marshaan, I know he was 0:34:20.680 --> 0:34:22.319 doing that at an early age. I think you want 0:34:22.400 --> 0:34:23.959 he was a Player of the Year for this rookie 0:34:24.000 --> 0:34:29.000 year hunh. Yeah, yeah, he came in doing this thing, 0:34:30.680 --> 0:34:34.399 who has always been a dog. I remember watching him 0:34:34.440 --> 0:34:36.799 early and just watching his tape and all the trash 0:34:36.880 --> 0:34:40.000 he was talking, making plays antics, and I'm like, nah, 0:34:40.600 --> 0:34:41.640 he kinda he's. 0:34:41.480 --> 0:34:43.440 Small, little man, gonna go out there and do it, 0:34:43.880 --> 0:34:47.920 get it, He's gonna fight. So I definitely love always. 0:34:47.600 --> 0:34:49.600 Watching DB's Man, I gave a lot of respect to 0:34:49.960 --> 0:34:52.120 guys that played this position at a high level, that 0:34:52.160 --> 0:34:54.520 go out there and and compete, because I mean, for me, 0:34:54.560 --> 0:34:56.080 it's like you'll see you turn on the tape and 0:34:56.120 --> 0:34:57.960 you'll watch certain guys he's. 0:34:57.800 --> 0:34:59.799 Like, man, ain't no pride in that, Like that ain't 0:34:59.800 --> 0:35:00.879 no what he's doing. 0:35:03.680 --> 0:35:05.920 It's certain people I couldn't even watch on tape. Like 0:35:06.000 --> 0:35:08.319 if I'm I'm trying to judge a receiver, I'm about 0:35:08.360 --> 0:35:10.920 to pay somebody if they played certain teams, I wouldn't 0:35:10.920 --> 0:35:12.480 even want to they tape because I'm like, that's not 0:35:12.520 --> 0:35:14.360 even gonna help me. That's not what. 0:35:15.719 --> 0:35:18.120 I can't get a good I can't get a good assessment. 0:35:18.239 --> 0:35:20.359 I can't get a good assessment watching this dude. Look 0:35:20.400 --> 0:35:21.799 he gave you two fifty, Like. 0:35:21.719 --> 0:35:26.400 What do you want to definitely definitely, uh who. 0:35:26.440 --> 0:35:28.640 What was your welcome to the NFL moment, like who 0:35:28.719 --> 0:35:31.799 blessed you? Because because my second year it was this 0:35:31.960 --> 0:35:35.920 receiver Stevie Johnson and nobody really know about it or 0:35:37.120 --> 0:35:40.880 nasty that boy in a phone booth you ain't touching 0:35:40.920 --> 0:35:44.520 it four seven four six, but in a phone booth 0:35:45.120 --> 0:35:45.560 your hands? 0:35:46.120 --> 0:35:54.440 Yeah, wiggle? Are I blessed me? That? I really in 0:35:54.560 --> 0:35:56.080 the path I FL? I really held my own. 0:35:56.120 --> 0:35:58.640 Of course I ran over one tonight right right right 0:35:58.680 --> 0:36:01.480 right the year, but I probably as far as the past, 0:36:01.920 --> 0:36:04.279 I probably one dude who always gave me problems. I know, 0:36:04.320 --> 0:36:07.279 like me and Davante was like compet. I wouldn't say 0:36:07.320 --> 0:36:09.719 he blessed me. I would I win myn he win 0:36:10.080 --> 0:36:14.759 win his, But I would probably say I struggled with 0:36:14.800 --> 0:36:17.239 Mike Evans my first my first year. 0:36:18.560 --> 0:36:21.439 Yeah, no, I know I struggled with him for sure. 0:36:21.480 --> 0:36:22.879 Everybody else. I feel like it was. 0:36:22.880 --> 0:36:25.920 Kind of like was silent, Like I wouldn't say that, 0:36:26.280 --> 0:36:29.600 like I had trouble, but Mike like he was someingm 0:36:29.880 --> 0:36:32.440 God like he doesn't do nothing special, it's not nothing 0:36:32.480 --> 0:36:34.759 that you don't know that he's gonna do, but it's 0:36:34.760 --> 0:36:35.560 like God damn. 0:36:35.560 --> 0:36:37.799 Then he got Tom Brady, especially when when I've seen 0:36:37.880 --> 0:36:38.319 him he. 0:36:38.360 --> 0:36:41.440 Had Tom Brady throwing. So I'm like, hey, I can 0:36:41.600 --> 0:36:44.480 I'm right here. He's big, running down the field, all strong, 0:36:44.800 --> 0:36:45.800 make it test and catches. 0:36:45.880 --> 0:36:49.520 I'm like, he ain't no different, he ain't no joke. 0:36:49.600 --> 0:36:53.239 Look in his hands. He way bigger and stronger than 0:36:53.280 --> 0:36:53.960 you ever. 0:36:53.800 --> 0:36:56.359 Think he is, no doubt, no doubt. 0:36:56.840 --> 0:36:58.719 He was one of the ones to be me and 0:36:59.040 --> 0:37:00.759 meet him and me and be Marshall. I had a 0:37:00.800 --> 0:37:02.719 couple of battles, so I was like God. 0:37:03.920 --> 0:37:07.640 With dinosaurs back, I would say, long lever cats. They 0:37:07.680 --> 0:37:09.120 ain't got no wiggle. 0:37:09.120 --> 0:37:12.040 They just all strong, all strong, hit you, grab you 0:37:12.600 --> 0:37:12.960 right here. 0:37:13.000 --> 0:37:17.200 A couple I made sure I back my linement up 0:37:17.200 --> 0:37:17.600 a little bit. 0:37:18.200 --> 0:37:19.080 Smart man, you. 0:37:19.000 --> 0:37:21.480 Can't get it up there, and then they want that. 0:37:21.840 --> 0:37:24.600 Smart man was. I ain't gonna take up too much 0:37:24.600 --> 0:37:26.279 more of your time. If you got any questions from me, 0:37:26.320 --> 0:37:28.919 anything you want to ask, I'm happy to answer. Other 0:37:28.960 --> 0:37:30.960 than that, I'll let you. Let you get back to 0:37:31.000 --> 0:37:34.320 your old lady, your fiance and your family. 0:37:35.040 --> 0:37:36.040 No, I appreciate it. 0:37:36.200 --> 0:37:40.239 You you well, I don't I know my answer, but 0:37:40.600 --> 0:37:41.760 you first, you first ballot. 0:37:41.880 --> 0:37:45.120 You think I hope. So you know, I don't want 0:37:45.120 --> 0:37:48.800 to jink. You don't want to jinxy, you know what 0:37:48.840 --> 0:37:49.160 I mean. 0:37:51.239 --> 0:37:53.120 There ain't no we gotta put it out there. 0:37:53.239 --> 0:37:54.880 Look, you put it out there and it don't happen. 0:37:54.880 --> 0:37:59.360 It's out there for yeah. Yeah, Look the rest of 0:37:59.400 --> 0:38:01.440 it I had could roll over, you know what I mean. 0:38:01.360 --> 0:38:02.920 Like when I want to call them all that stuff, 0:38:03.680 --> 0:38:04.279 but I'm not. 0:38:05.239 --> 0:38:06.920 I hope. So I think I did enough. You know, 0:38:06.920 --> 0:38:09.800 I went to three Super Bowls, got enough all pros 0:38:09.920 --> 0:38:12.400 and all that, you know, played on enough great defenses, 0:38:12.480 --> 0:38:15.440 went somewhere else and we had a great defense and 0:38:16.000 --> 0:38:19.080 went to another Bowl. So you know, I think during 0:38:19.120 --> 0:38:21.319 my time, I think I would say I was the 0:38:21.360 --> 0:38:25.520 best one that playing. But you know, everybody got their opinion. 0:38:25.600 --> 0:38:27.719 So I hope hopefully the voters think that. And you know, 0:38:27.800 --> 0:38:30.400 get me in. That would mean a lot to me, 0:38:30.560 --> 0:38:33.120 you know, to get that jacket, and and you know 0:38:33.200 --> 0:38:35.279 all your hard work, everything you dreamed about as a 0:38:35.280 --> 0:38:37.719 little kid comes true. You know, that's the that's the 0:38:37.719 --> 0:38:40.600 cool part. But that's what I'm saying about your teammates, 0:38:41.800 --> 0:38:44.040 Like if you really want to shine, you bring them 0:38:44.080 --> 0:38:46.239 boys along with you. And you and and they get it, 0:38:46.280 --> 0:38:48.680 you know what I mean, Like real competitors, real champions, 0:38:48.680 --> 0:38:50.839 real dudes who really want what they say they want. 0:38:51.160 --> 0:38:52.640 They don't really question it, you know what I mean. 0:38:52.640 --> 0:38:54.279 If you if you got to pull teeth to get 0:38:54.320 --> 0:38:57.160 a dude to do some extra work or to say hey, 0:38:57.200 --> 0:38:59.319 this is our standard as a dB group and our 0:38:59.400 --> 0:39:01.680 dB room and they want to argue it, then they 0:39:01.800 --> 0:39:03.680 not really what they say they are, and they probably 0:39:03.680 --> 0:39:06.200 gonna get replaced by somebody else. The coaches will see it. 0:39:06.280 --> 0:39:09.320 The table show all that, but most dudes ain't built 0:39:09.320 --> 0:39:10.719 like they didn't make it to the league by being 0:39:10.800 --> 0:39:13.120 like that. So you might have an off day where 0:39:13.120 --> 0:39:16.040 I'm tired or my hamstring herd and the sword, that's different. 0:39:16.120 --> 0:39:19.160 But if you say, hey, in this dB room, this 0:39:19.239 --> 0:39:21.080 is our standard. This is what we're doing with working 0:39:21.120 --> 0:39:23.040 every day after practice. I don't care if it's just 0:39:23.040 --> 0:39:25.319 catching a few balls on the jugs or getting a 0:39:25.320 --> 0:39:27.319 few releases. Like we go out there, we do not 0:39:27.400 --> 0:39:30.399 do the minimum, and dudes be like, no, man, I'm 0:39:30.400 --> 0:39:34.160 going home. You you ain't gonna be what you say 0:39:34.200 --> 0:39:35.920 you want to be. You ain't never gonna get there. 0:39:36.680 --> 0:39:38.920 So I would say, I would say that was the 0:39:38.920 --> 0:39:41.120 biggest thing about the Legion of Boom and our group, 0:39:41.200 --> 0:39:43.560 that that that helped elevate us and elevate the guys 0:39:43.600 --> 0:39:45.200 around us and elevate all of us. Is that that 0:39:45.560 --> 0:39:47.280 was the standard, and it was the standard, and nobody 0:39:47.320 --> 0:39:49.520 ever questioned it, nobody saying nothing. You know what I mean, like, hey, 0:39:49.560 --> 0:39:51.759 go get your extra work and let's go home. We're 0:39:51.760 --> 0:39:53.480 gonna do a lap around the field. We're gonna do this. 0:39:53.640 --> 0:39:57.120 Get your get your teen press coverage reps, or your 0:39:57.200 --> 0:39:59.799 your your safety reps, your eye reps, your quarterback throwing 0:39:59.800 --> 0:40:01.520 your all whatever, and let's get on out of here. 0:40:01.560 --> 0:40:04.239 But the standard is the standard. Nobody's gonna argue with. 0:40:04.200 --> 0:40:06.000 That, no doubt, no doubt. 0:40:06.560 --> 0:40:09.720 My last one for you, and I know how smart 0:40:09.719 --> 0:40:11.879 and intelligent you were, of course. 0:40:11.760 --> 0:40:14.520 Off the field, but I know on the field it 0:40:14.960 --> 0:40:15.440 was different. 0:40:15.520 --> 0:40:17.799 I feel like I ain't seen too many guys in 0:40:17.840 --> 0:40:20.719 the National Football League run somebody's round before they ran it. 0:40:21.280 --> 0:40:23.600 So I think for me, just always seeing them, he 0:40:23.760 --> 0:40:25.759 knows something. I feel like, how did how did you 0:40:25.840 --> 0:40:27.880 get to that point? Like how did you Because like 0:40:27.880 --> 0:40:30.160 for me, like I can watch film, I get to 0:40:30.200 --> 0:40:32.680 a point where like good. I'm good like right recognition, 0:40:32.719 --> 0:40:34.920 so I can kind of see, okay, three point one 0:40:34.960 --> 0:40:37.080 onto the field based on certain splits. 0:40:37.120 --> 0:40:38.600 I can expect certain things. 0:40:39.080 --> 0:40:42.680 But how I guess for my question to you is 0:40:42.719 --> 0:40:44.799 how did you get to that point to where it 0:40:44.920 --> 0:40:47.439 was at the level of which it was as far 0:40:47.480 --> 0:40:50.560 as your IQ, you seeing certain things, you calling things 0:40:50.560 --> 0:40:52.480 out before it even happens. 0:40:52.600 --> 0:40:55.200 Was that kind of studying? Was that? Do you think 0:40:55.200 --> 0:40:57.520 you just kind of have a certain type of memory 0:40:57.600 --> 0:41:00.560 or something like? How it was at that level it was? 0:41:00.640 --> 0:41:02.760 It was a little bit of everything. I played receiver 0:41:02.880 --> 0:41:05.560 for a long time in college, and so I learned 0:41:05.960 --> 0:41:09.960 West Coast offense under Bill Walsh and under Hofball and 0:41:10.000 --> 0:41:13.480 all of them. So I understand what the offense trying 0:41:13.480 --> 0:41:17.560 to do from their their their route combinations, like their philosophy, 0:41:17.600 --> 0:41:20.960 and a lot of the combinations like a flat two 0:41:21.000 --> 0:41:23.160 to the flat means one coming in or one on 0:41:23.200 --> 0:41:25.480 the curral and one on the slant, depending on if 0:41:25.480 --> 0:41:29.120 it's quick game or not. Two running the over route 0:41:29.360 --> 0:41:32.680 means one coming in. It's either dig or post, you 0:41:32.760 --> 0:41:35.440 know what I mean. So certain combinations are married with 0:41:35.600 --> 0:41:40.840 other things, and so I practiced that way. I practice 0:41:41.640 --> 0:41:44.200 situational football. That's all I do when I'm watching tape, 0:41:44.200 --> 0:41:46.319 when I'm watching our own offense, if I'm in training camp, 0:41:46.440 --> 0:41:49.160 I'm breaking down, Hey, are max protect deep developing routes? 0:41:49.160 --> 0:41:50.200 What are our offense like? 0:41:50.200 --> 0:41:50.279 Like? 0:41:50.400 --> 0:41:53.000 Okay, they got they got a tidy end end and 0:41:53.040 --> 0:41:55.960 a great digger and a running back staying in max protect, 0:41:56.200 --> 0:41:58.480 all right, so they running deep developing routes. What's their 0:41:58.520 --> 0:42:02.120 favorite routes? Okay, they like double dig post are they 0:42:02.239 --> 0:42:07.319 like come back with a middle read or whatever it is. 0:42:07.360 --> 0:42:09.880 And once you learn those things, then let the split 0:42:09.960 --> 0:42:12.480 speak to you. Let the situation. Hey, it's third and five. 0:42:12.800 --> 0:42:14.080 What are they like on third and five? 0:42:14.120 --> 0:42:14.359 Again? 0:42:15.040 --> 0:42:17.520 Like, okay, in the bunch, they like spot where it's 0:42:17.520 --> 0:42:20.920 the six to seven the flat and it's like, oh, 0:42:20.960 --> 0:42:23.120 they always do it out of emotion. So as I 0:42:23.160 --> 0:42:27.799 see that emotion, all right, Now, what I want to know, Hey, 0:42:27.840 --> 0:42:30.520 alert this, Alert this. If I see two, If I 0:42:30.520 --> 0:42:33.160 see three, go to the flat, I know I didn't increase, 0:42:33.360 --> 0:42:35.040 And now I just want to know which one I'm 0:42:35.080 --> 0:42:37.120 trying to bait him into throwing. Hey, you see the 0:42:37.160 --> 0:42:40.600 safety down, So he understands his three. He thinks he 0:42:40.800 --> 0:42:43.319 has the flat. So if I take away the flat, 0:42:43.360 --> 0:42:45.200 I know he takes the seven. So can I hold 0:42:45.239 --> 0:42:46.960 the flat long enough to go get the seven? Like 0:42:47.040 --> 0:42:49.480 you did in that poem's rep and you did what 0:42:49.600 --> 0:42:51.560 something I would do, but you did it subconsciously. You 0:42:51.920 --> 0:42:56.120 just did a reactionary, which was really cool. But so 0:42:56.280 --> 0:42:59.400 a lot of it is just understanding the concepts and 0:43:00.040 --> 0:43:02.640 our routes are married, like certain routes go with other 0:43:02.719 --> 0:43:07.000 routes always, and so they can't really run the concept 0:43:07.080 --> 0:43:08.680 without running the second part of it. So now I 0:43:08.719 --> 0:43:10.640 got to just know where my eyes are supposed to be. Hey, 0:43:10.880 --> 0:43:13.319 my zone two on this play my zone one, because 0:43:13.320 --> 0:43:15.520 I don't have any indicator over there with two on 0:43:15.760 --> 0:43:17.520 backside of a three by one, and it's third and 0:43:17.600 --> 0:43:20.640 five and I'm with Davonte, and you know it's it's 0:43:20.760 --> 0:43:22.200 up from there, you know what I mean? We can 0:43:22.239 --> 0:43:26.040 get anyway from there. But a lot of times it 0:43:26.160 --> 0:43:29.000 was just me understanding their concepts, understanding the situation we 0:43:29.080 --> 0:43:32.640 were in, and not letting the fatigue and the craziness 0:43:32.719 --> 0:43:34.920 of a game get me out of my game plan. 0:43:36.200 --> 0:43:39.759 No doubt, no doubt. Well, I thought, that's my that's 0:43:39.840 --> 0:43:40.640 my biggest thing. 0:43:40.680 --> 0:43:45.120 I feel like it is understanding it from an offensive 0:43:45.239 --> 0:43:47.879 perspective because I feel like, for me, I I can 0:43:47.960 --> 0:43:50.120 see it. I'm like, I'm really good at, like you said, 0:43:50.760 --> 0:43:54.200 flits for mation situations. Okay, when they want to do 0:43:54.320 --> 0:43:57.120 certain things, especially like when I see too, like a 0:43:57.440 --> 0:43:59.719 coverage that I can see two two will tell me. 0:43:59.719 --> 0:44:01.359 All I need to know about one like I don't. 0:44:01.719 --> 0:44:03.360 And a lot of times like I'll tell like she 0:44:03.520 --> 0:44:05.600 was asking, how you know all that I said, I 0:44:05.640 --> 0:44:07.560 see number two like too told me what you was 0:44:07.800 --> 0:44:09.640 what you was gonna do. So ops is my favorite 0:44:09.680 --> 0:44:11.719 unless you just did something completely off script and hey 0:44:11.800 --> 0:44:15.480 I got a rally to that, but right, yeah, he 0:44:15.560 --> 0:44:17.480 in fact, I just got to chalk that up and 0:44:18.600 --> 0:44:20.640 play a little true. But for the most part, I 0:44:20.719 --> 0:44:23.239 think for me, it's okay, how does the offense see 0:44:23.320 --> 0:44:25.560 what we're doing and see what I'm doing. I'm like, 0:44:25.680 --> 0:44:28.239 that's the biggest thing that I want to get to 0:44:28.400 --> 0:44:28.799 tow us. 0:44:28.880 --> 0:44:30.520 Like when I do know what they're doing. 0:44:30.760 --> 0:44:33.640 I can still see how he's seeing, how the quarterback 0:44:33.680 --> 0:44:36.000 seeing how the o c seeing it. I think that's 0:44:36.040 --> 0:44:38.719 something I want to take to that next level kind 0:44:38.760 --> 0:44:40.920 of start thinking and I I don't know who they hell, 0:44:40.960 --> 0:44:42.560 I need to talk to I need You. 0:44:42.600 --> 0:44:44.359 Can talk to some of them quarterbacks, you can talk 0:44:44.400 --> 0:44:46.040 to your old ce. Like a lot of the football 0:44:46.120 --> 0:44:48.279 minds ain't trying to keep secrets, especially if guys on 0:44:48.360 --> 0:44:50.080 their team. They might you know, it's training camp, so 0:44:50.120 --> 0:44:52.239 they might, Oh, we ain't helping you, got it. But 0:44:52.360 --> 0:44:56.239 during the season they want you to succeed. So you're like, hey, hey, 0:44:56.320 --> 0:44:57.880 could I could I watch a little takee with you? 0:44:57.960 --> 0:44:59.759 I just want to understand offense a little better so 0:44:59.800 --> 0:45:02.360 I can play better When we playing Cover two, they 0:45:02.440 --> 0:45:04.160 got an answer for it when they playing Cover three. 0:45:04.200 --> 0:45:07.040 When they're doing that, all of that and they and 0:45:07.160 --> 0:45:08.640 you need to know what they think it and why 0:45:08.760 --> 0:45:10.719 is they answer? So where the ball should be coming 0:45:10.840 --> 0:45:14.040 so we be in the game. And that's why people 0:45:14.040 --> 0:45:15.799 always say, y'all ran in Cover three and like, oh, 0:45:15.920 --> 0:45:17.520 it was so simple. It was so simple because we 0:45:17.600 --> 0:45:19.560 knew what they were gonna do, and so we knew 0:45:19.560 --> 0:45:21.120 where the answers were all the time. 0:45:21.760 --> 0:45:24.080 Hyah, ever got a weakness. 0:45:24.080 --> 0:45:26.239 They got a weakness. Communicate with the rest of your 0:45:26.320 --> 0:45:29.120 dudes too, because that helps you, Like when they know 0:45:29.239 --> 0:45:31.239 what you know and everybody knows the same thing. 0:45:31.960 --> 0:45:32.280 Together. 0:45:32.719 --> 0:45:34.440 We can be together and you can dictate where the 0:45:34.520 --> 0:45:37.520 ball goes. You can say, hey, hey, we got cover two. 0:45:37.520 --> 0:45:39.680 It's gonna be it's a three by one, but it's 0:45:39.800 --> 0:45:42.239 enough side. They running a seven on the back side 0:45:42.239 --> 0:45:45.000 and they running special. All goes special coming from the 0:45:45.040 --> 0:45:48.000 three by one side. Hey, we ain't cover three. I'm 0:45:48.040 --> 0:45:50.279 not gonna I'm I'm gonna pass this tight end because 0:45:50.280 --> 0:45:53.200 I don't want my linebacker running with fee at three three. 0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:56.279 I need my buzzer to drop a little deeper, Hey, 0:45:56.320 --> 0:45:57.960 buzz deeper so he can come off that seven. We're 0:45:57.960 --> 0:45:59.759 gonna make him throw the flat route to the running 0:45:59.800 --> 0:46:02.040 back to the tight end side. But we ain't gonna 0:46:02.080 --> 0:46:05.160 let him get that special with him running. Oh yeah, 0:46:06.000 --> 0:46:08.640 and so stuff like that. We would. We were just 0:46:08.719 --> 0:46:11.359 talking through Hey, Hey, hey Bobby, Bobby, Hey, I got him, 0:46:11.400 --> 0:46:13.920 Hey kJ hey drop Hey, I need you deeper.
