<v Speaker 8>There's always be funny. Joe's lying the jads at everybody.

0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:47.320
<v Speaker 8>So together.

0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:49.400
<v Speaker 4>I like it. I like this room and I like

0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:51.120
<v Speaker 4>what we're what we got going on this year.

0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:53.720
<v Speaker 5>I just talked to River Craycraft about golf, and you

0:02:53.760 --> 0:02:55.320
<v Speaker 5>were the name that came up as the best golfer

0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:56.799
<v Speaker 5>on the team. Is that a truth? Can you guys

0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:59.600
<v Speaker 5>also attest to that? You guys also play, I.

0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 9>Haven't been slumping recently, played with these.

0:03:02.000 --> 0:03:04.320
<v Speaker 8>Guys, in a while, and so they want to know.

0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:07.000
<v Speaker 8>But me being the best guy.

0:03:06.880 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 4>On the team needs to stop because the game has

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:11.560
<v Speaker 4>been regressing pretty bad.

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:14.480
<v Speaker 7>Did River also mention that Jason is the biggest Sam

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:15.359
<v Speaker 7>Bagger on the team?

0:03:16.600 --> 0:03:18.720
<v Speaker 3>Man, gotta respect the game, man.

0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:22.000
<v Speaker 4>I mean, there's a lot of guys on the team

0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:23.680
<v Speaker 4>that like to play golf, so it's always fun to

0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:27.600
<v Speaker 4>get out there with the boys. So I wouldn't say

0:03:27.600 --> 0:03:29.800
<v Speaker 4>I'm the best right now, but there's a lot of

0:03:29.880 --> 0:03:33.360
<v Speaker 4>there's a lot of there's a lot of competitive golfers

0:03:33.360 --> 0:03:34.520
<v Speaker 4>on this team, so when we all.

0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:35.440
<v Speaker 8>Get out there, it's always fun.

0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:36.320
<v Speaker 3>He asked you a question.

0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:40.680
<v Speaker 4>It's not Jake, I'm saying that there's a lot of

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:41.680
<v Speaker 4>guys that are good on this team.

0:03:41.720 --> 0:03:44.240
<v Speaker 5>I'll say that isn't so isn't that partially like your

0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:46.480
<v Speaker 5>job though, because you're the one that gets like when

0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:49.760
<v Speaker 5>if you like miss a kick, is he giving you anything?

0:03:49.840 --> 0:03:52.720
<v Speaker 5>Is it like, does anyone besides like your coach give

0:03:52.760 --> 0:03:55.120
<v Speaker 5>you like, hey, you you did this so like it's

0:03:55.160 --> 0:03:56.360
<v Speaker 5>like a golf swing. It's like I know you were

0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:58.160
<v Speaker 5>out to end. I know you were a little quick.

0:03:58.200 --> 0:03:59.839
<v Speaker 5>Like is there back and forth?

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:00.520
<v Speaker 8>People just.

0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:05.320
<v Speaker 4>Jake does a good job of giving you feedback.

0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:05.800
<v Speaker 10>Me.

0:04:06.600 --> 0:04:08.440
<v Speaker 4>He'll take the blame if it's not his fault, and

0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:11.560
<v Speaker 4>he's a good guy. Blake does too as well. It

0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:12.840
<v Speaker 4>makes it a lot easier when you got.

0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:15.960
<v Speaker 5>These two in the room. So absolutely, especially Blake never

0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:18.080
<v Speaker 5>messes up those. So that's why I wanted to ask you.

0:04:18.120 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 5>Blake was so like, this is a profession of jobs

0:04:22.240 --> 0:04:25.400
<v Speaker 5>where you only get noticed if you mess up referees,

0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:28.719
<v Speaker 5>offensive lineman to a certain degree, but I feel like

0:04:28.760 --> 0:04:31.799
<v Speaker 5>the long snapper is the ultimate in that regard.

0:04:31.920 --> 0:04:34.520
<v Speaker 3>Is that do you ever have to internalize that?

0:04:34.600 --> 0:04:36.960
<v Speaker 5>Like, is there a certain stress that comes with knowing

0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:38.720
<v Speaker 5>that you're only going to get your name printed if

0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:39.920
<v Speaker 5>you do something wrong?

0:04:40.200 --> 0:04:44.000
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, definitely, But I think we kind of take pride

0:04:44.279 --> 0:04:48.440
<v Speaker 7>as specialists in doing that and in knowing that you know,

0:04:48.640 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 7>you have one opportunity to go out there and do

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 7>your job and do it well, and typically if it

0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:58.720
<v Speaker 7>doesn't get done well, everybody's gonna know both or I

0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:03.480
<v Speaker 7>guess all three. Kicking, punting, long snapping. What I've always

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:06.240
<v Speaker 7>tried to kind of equate it to is like a

0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:09.000
<v Speaker 7>sniper mentality where you've got one shot to kill, you

0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:11.960
<v Speaker 7>go out there and if you miss, everybody is gonna

0:05:12.000 --> 0:05:14.880
<v Speaker 7>hear the shot go off. Uh, and know that it didn't,

0:05:15.640 --> 0:05:19.640
<v Speaker 7>you know, get executed properly. But that's that's kind of

0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:21.920
<v Speaker 7>what you have to take pride in and and uh,

0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:24.719
<v Speaker 7>it's just kind of the nature of the business. You know,

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:26.839
<v Speaker 7>you're not going to be the one with the name

0:05:26.839 --> 0:05:30.159
<v Speaker 7>in the headlines unless it's for something not great.

0:05:30.320 --> 0:05:32.520
<v Speaker 3>So or if you get a contract extension.

0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:34.400
<v Speaker 8>That works too, it usually works well.

0:05:34.480 --> 0:05:34.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:36.520
<v Speaker 5>So so both of you guys have had that here

0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:38.320
<v Speaker 5>at the Dolphins. You obviously got signed and brought back

0:05:38.320 --> 0:05:39.800
<v Speaker 5>this year. So I guess in a way, all three

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:42.320
<v Speaker 5>of us have have seen extensions. How how excited, I

0:05:42.360 --> 0:05:43.200
<v Speaker 5>don't know. I guess I'll go to.

0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:43.520
<v Speaker 3>You, Jakes.

0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:48.360
<v Speaker 5>We haven't talked to you much since us full uniform

0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:49.320
<v Speaker 5>sitting back there.

0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:55.200
<v Speaker 3>I want to get your input on.

0:05:55.240 --> 0:05:57.360
<v Speaker 5>Joining these guys and and how special to be back

0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:58.760
<v Speaker 5>in the same room, because this is a league full

0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 5>of turnover man to be able work the same guys

0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:02.400
<v Speaker 5>for a second straight year, How special is that to you?

0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:05.640
<v Speaker 9>Super special? Yeah? I love working with these guys.

0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:08.640
<v Speaker 6>They definitely keep it light and it's just fun to

0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:10.840
<v Speaker 6>come to work. Every day and hang out and get

0:06:10.880 --> 0:06:12.120
<v Speaker 6>better with them.

0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:12.720
<v Speaker 3>Insightful.

0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:17.280
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, we pride ourselves on being the least penalized position

0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:18.920
<v Speaker 6>group of the whole team.

0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:27.240
<v Speaker 5>More, we only had one penalty. That's why I thought

0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:30.400
<v Speaker 5>we were going, do you carry to address that, Blake?

0:06:30.440 --> 0:06:34.160
<v Speaker 8>I didn't get fine. Actually, what happened, what happened.

0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 3>After the whistle? Actually, there you go. It's a team game.

0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:41.040
<v Speaker 5>Sometimes you gotta count your teammate so they're a little

0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:44.080
<v Speaker 5>bit So let's let's go ahead and go back to you, Jason,

0:06:44.080 --> 0:06:47.880
<v Speaker 5>because to me, on a team full of elite celebrations,

0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:51.520
<v Speaker 5>you had the best one last year was the Yeah wow, yeah,

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:51.919
<v Speaker 5>I think so.

0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:52.480
<v Speaker 9>I agree.

0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:54.520
<v Speaker 5>What was a big game. That was my favorite day

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:56.120
<v Speaker 5>of the entire year. So we got that big win,

0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:58.120
<v Speaker 5>quinch the playoff spot. I go home late at night.

0:06:58.440 --> 0:07:01.240
<v Speaker 5>My wife had like the sarkling log thing on the YouTube,

0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:02.720
<v Speaker 5>and like all the Christmas presents were set out. I

0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:04.120
<v Speaker 5>was just in a really good place that night, and

0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:06.520
<v Speaker 5>you helped that happen. So thank you for that, All

0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:07.360
<v Speaker 5>three of you guys did.

0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:07.560
<v Speaker 1>So.

0:07:07.600 --> 0:07:09.479
<v Speaker 5>I appreciate you guys making that day so special for me.

0:07:09.560 --> 0:07:12.800
<v Speaker 5>But one, two, three, four, five, does that spur the moment.

0:07:13.400 --> 0:07:15.960
<v Speaker 5>You can't think about that before the kick, right, or

0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:16.560
<v Speaker 5>maybe you did.

0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:19.640
<v Speaker 4>I wasn't gonna do anything. We were just gonna walk off,

0:07:19.680 --> 0:07:23.000
<v Speaker 4>celebrate and we won. You know, But as soon as

0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:25.000
<v Speaker 4>somebody picks you up, now there's a camera and you

0:07:24.960 --> 0:07:27.239
<v Speaker 4>can just stand there, now you might look like an idiots.

0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:28.840
<v Speaker 4>You gotta do something.

0:07:28.960 --> 0:07:30.640
<v Speaker 9>This is a good question though I was wondering this.

0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:32.680
<v Speaker 9>You weren't thinking about that at all before?

0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.880
<v Speaker 4>No, because if you don't make it, guess what good

0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:36.120
<v Speaker 4>for you?

0:07:36.160 --> 0:07:37.120
<v Speaker 8>We're not going to celebrate.

0:07:37.680 --> 0:07:40.520
<v Speaker 4>So but as soon as someone picks you up, adrenaline hits,

0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:42.600
<v Speaker 4>and yeah, you gotta do something.

0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 8>And that's the first thing that came to my mind.

0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:46.600
<v Speaker 3>How many times have you made the elevator now in

0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:47.080
<v Speaker 3>the lobby?

0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:52.600
<v Speaker 4>It's been a few, right, at least twice, maybe three times.

0:07:53.000 --> 0:07:54.560
<v Speaker 7>I don't know how long has it been a thing,

0:07:54.800 --> 0:07:57.160
<v Speaker 7>because was it like twenty twenty one?

0:07:57.800 --> 0:07:59.960
<v Speaker 8>That's what it came about before? Has it?

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:00.400
<v Speaker 4>And going?

0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:01.160
<v Speaker 8>Since I was.

0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:04.640
<v Speaker 4>On in my rookiyearre you And that's the only time

0:08:05.440 --> 0:08:07.280
<v Speaker 4>I would say three times. Three times for sure.

0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 8>They did the Jets last two seasons ago.

0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:12.560
<v Speaker 3>Oh the game winner, Yeah, yeah, and then I had

0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:13.239
<v Speaker 3>with my Rooki.

0:08:13.080 --> 0:08:15.840
<v Speaker 8>Years so three minimum, which is which is pretty cool.

0:08:15.920 --> 0:08:17.400
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, very cool.

0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:19.520
<v Speaker 5>It's it's really I mean, that's one of the things

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:21.240
<v Speaker 5>with our fans look forward to every single week after

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:23.560
<v Speaker 5>when is what what happens on the elevator? So take

0:08:23.640 --> 0:08:26.280
<v Speaker 5>it up. There is quite an honor obviously. What's a

0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:29.120
<v Speaker 5>day like in the life of a specialist? Like what's

0:08:29.160 --> 0:08:31.600
<v Speaker 5>what time do you get here? When does like stuff

0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:34.600
<v Speaker 5>really start to happen? And just how much time do

0:08:34.640 --> 0:08:36.559
<v Speaker 5>you guys spend together throughout the course of the day.

0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:39.040
<v Speaker 5>Let's go ahead and start with you, Jake. I want

0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:40.640
<v Speaker 5>to get you some more insight from you here.

0:08:41.400 --> 0:08:44.760
<v Speaker 9>Well, usually it starts off at breakfast. We all sit

0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:46.640
<v Speaker 9>down at breakfast, hang out with each other.

0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:49.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, sure, the food's great.

0:08:49.840 --> 0:08:52.720
<v Speaker 4>To start up pretty fast in the BMW.

0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:59.800
<v Speaker 9>No tesla, so it just stay yeah exactly. And then

0:08:59.840 --> 0:09:01.920
<v Speaker 9>you usually we'll you know, have a meeting or.

0:09:01.880 --> 0:09:05.480
<v Speaker 6>Two and then I like to go in the hot tub,

0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:08.920
<v Speaker 6>and then sometimes we play some FIFA and like usually

0:09:08.920 --> 0:09:10.000
<v Speaker 6>gets upset.

0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:11.559
<v Speaker 3>Why is that?

0:09:11.920 --> 0:09:17.360
<v Speaker 1>Because Jason's the best at FIFA and.

0:09:15.880 --> 0:09:17.920
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, best sick golf and FIVA.

0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:19.400
<v Speaker 3>There's a correlation there.

0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:23.520
<v Speaker 5>I think, what about you, Jason, what's the what's the

0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:24.839
<v Speaker 5>highlight of the day for you with these guys?

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:28.440
<v Speaker 4>The highlight of the day with my boys, I don't know.

0:09:28.679 --> 0:09:31.200
<v Speaker 4>Anytime we're together, it's always fun. We always crack jokes

0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:32.920
<v Speaker 4>at each other, like one day I could be the

0:09:32.960 --> 0:09:35.400
<v Speaker 4>target and one day Jake could be the target, you know,

0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:37.000
<v Speaker 4>So it depends on what.

0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:37.360
<v Speaker 8>Day it is.

0:09:37.400 --> 0:09:40.480
<v Speaker 4>And even if it's a practice like it doesn't it

0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:42.800
<v Speaker 4>doesn't matter. So when we're all together, it's a it's

0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:43.240
<v Speaker 4>a good time.

0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:45.679
<v Speaker 3>Why is the breakfast table the highlight of the day, Blake.

0:09:46.800 --> 0:09:48.800
<v Speaker 7>I think it's just cool having a group of guys

0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:53.160
<v Speaker 7>that you know, just enjoys being around each other. I

0:09:53.200 --> 0:09:56.240
<v Speaker 7>think coach McDaniel has done a really good job in

0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:59.960
<v Speaker 7>our facility of creating a culture of like, just enjoy

0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 7>coming to work and just even the moments where you're

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:06.960
<v Speaker 7>not necessarily in a film room or on the practice

0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:11.480
<v Speaker 7>field or working per se, you still enjoy being around

0:10:11.520 --> 0:10:15.960
<v Speaker 7>your teammates, enjoying conversation, enjoying getting to know, you know,

0:10:16.120 --> 0:10:18.960
<v Speaker 7>about the lives of the guys that you spend so

0:10:19.000 --> 0:10:20.720
<v Speaker 7>many hours with throughout the course of the season.

0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:23.520
<v Speaker 5>I'm impressed by your professionalism to keep it together during

0:10:23.520 --> 0:10:26.240
<v Speaker 5>that entire thing. We are currently in a calf massage

0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:28.640
<v Speaker 5>happening between the kicker and the punter right now. So

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:31.680
<v Speaker 5>Blake keeping his composent, that's what you do.

0:10:31.240 --> 0:10:31.480
<v Speaker 1>What you.

0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:35.559
<v Speaker 8>Didn't get his opportunity to the hot time.

0:10:38.320 --> 0:10:40.960
<v Speaker 5>Oh my goodness, this is off the rails and the

0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:42.880
<v Speaker 5>best way possible. One of the things I wrote down

0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:44.959
<v Speaker 5>in my notes here was I could imagine that maybe

0:10:45.000 --> 0:10:46.679
<v Speaker 5>you guys would be better with each other at like

0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:48.960
<v Speaker 5>a newly weed game than your significant others.

0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:50.800
<v Speaker 3>Is that true? You think?

0:10:51.400 --> 0:10:53.439
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, you got some questions you can fire off.

0:10:53.440 --> 0:10:56.559
<v Speaker 3>What is what is Blake Ferguson's biggest fear?

0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:02.160
<v Speaker 9>To give me thirty seconds to think of this, Okay.

0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:05.280
<v Speaker 5>I'll go to Blake. What is what is Jason Sanders'

0:11:05.360 --> 0:11:10.880
<v Speaker 5>favorite food? Guys are killing it on fire.

0:11:11.559 --> 0:11:12.240
<v Speaker 9>We're not good.

0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:16.079
<v Speaker 8>It's gonna be Bolon's big Netto's.

0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:24.840
<v Speaker 4>Shut up bignettas shout out by Carlos.

0:11:26.600 --> 0:11:28.320
<v Speaker 5>Okay, so I guess I'll have to ask, but we'll

0:11:28.360 --> 0:11:29.600
<v Speaker 5>come back to you after a question for or do

0:11:29.600 --> 0:11:30.280
<v Speaker 5>you have it for me?

0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:30.600
<v Speaker 8>No?

0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:31.160
<v Speaker 3>You don't have it?

0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:35.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, okay, Jason, what pretty fearless, to be honest, what

0:11:35.400 --> 0:11:38.640
<v Speaker 5>is uh? Who is who is Jake Bailey's favorite band

0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:39.800
<v Speaker 5>or musical artist?

0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:41.080
<v Speaker 8>Musical artists?

0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:48.800
<v Speaker 10>But all right, is that a little answer? No, I'll

0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:51.840
<v Speaker 10>take it all right. Can you give us the answer?

0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:53.240
<v Speaker 10>I'm gonna go Zach.

0:11:53.160 --> 0:11:55.720
<v Speaker 6>Brown Man, I watched the Bob Marley movie two nights

0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:56.199
<v Speaker 6>ago and that.

0:11:56.200 --> 0:11:58.679
<v Speaker 9>Was very good. So that's so I'm going with.

0:11:58.880 --> 0:11:59.880
<v Speaker 8>Is hyper fixation of it?

0:12:02.480 --> 0:12:04.240
<v Speaker 5>Did you happen to see two? Was rendition of Three

0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:07.319
<v Speaker 5>Little Birds at the Blue Out? I think I think

0:12:07.320 --> 0:12:07.760
<v Speaker 5>I saw.

0:12:07.600 --> 0:12:08.199
<v Speaker 8>It pretty good.

0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:11.520
<v Speaker 5>He's go pretty good, pretty good voice, pretty good, pretty

0:12:12.200 --> 0:12:15.040
<v Speaker 5>favorite part. Yeah, like you got any jokes you'd like

0:12:15.080 --> 0:12:17.760
<v Speaker 5>to tell us? Are you still still on the biggest

0:12:17.760 --> 0:12:18.280
<v Speaker 5>fear of questions?

0:12:18.280 --> 0:12:18.599
<v Speaker 2>I would know.

0:12:18.720 --> 0:12:20.880
<v Speaker 9>I think he's fearless. That's my final answer.

0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:21.600
<v Speaker 3>That's pretty good.

0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:28.240
<v Speaker 1>My biggest fear is drowning, which is quite concerning, Uh,

0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:31.920
<v Speaker 1>considering we live in Miami and there's like boats in

0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:32.640
<v Speaker 1>the beach.

0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:34.120
<v Speaker 9>And there are like boats.

0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:35.559
<v Speaker 3>Do you go to the beach often?

0:12:36.000 --> 0:12:36.200
<v Speaker 5>Uh?

0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:40.000
<v Speaker 8>No, I prefer pool more than the beach.

0:12:41.520 --> 0:12:44.760
<v Speaker 9>Because there's do you take your shirt off the ocean?

0:12:45.640 --> 0:12:47.240
<v Speaker 3>Do you wear your full uniform to the pool.

0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:50.280
<v Speaker 8>I don't I don't put my I don't put my helmet.

0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:55.600
<v Speaker 9>On to get in. You rash guard or a shirt

0:12:55.600 --> 0:12:56.000
<v Speaker 9>on the pool.

0:12:56.040 --> 0:13:04.360
<v Speaker 2>Gay Jason, you gotta get He's got the commentary, what

0:13:04.440 --> 0:13:07.080
<v Speaker 2>about what about wildlife in the ocean though, That's what

0:13:07.160 --> 0:13:08.280
<v Speaker 2>scares me more than drowning.

0:13:08.720 --> 0:13:11.000
<v Speaker 8>We were in Hawaii last year. Interesting story. We were

0:13:11.000 --> 0:13:13.280
<v Speaker 8>in Hawaii last year and uh it was with my

0:13:13.440 --> 0:13:14.559
<v Speaker 8>now fiance.

0:13:14.880 --> 0:13:17.160
<v Speaker 9>And congrats, congrats, thanks appreciate it.

0:13:18.080 --> 0:13:21.880
<v Speaker 7>We were swimming in the ocean talking to some fellow

0:13:21.960 --> 0:13:26.320
<v Speaker 7>beach goers and here comes like this dark spot in

0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:31.280
<v Speaker 7>the water, and Abby's like, I'm gonna put my goggles

0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:33.360
<v Speaker 7>on and go see what it is. She just like

0:13:33.400 --> 0:13:37.080
<v Speaker 7>swims off, knowing that I'm like, we're not gonna swim

0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:40.240
<v Speaker 7>past you know where I can touch. I'm like the

0:13:40.440 --> 0:13:47.560
<v Speaker 7>I'm like the the child. Anyway, it turned out to

0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:50.960
<v Speaker 7>be a sea turtle. Thankfully, that thing that can't tell

0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:55.560
<v Speaker 7>you don't know that I couldn't see it from above.

0:13:55.640 --> 0:13:57.520
<v Speaker 7>She's like, I'm gonna go swim at it and see

0:13:57.559 --> 0:13:59.479
<v Speaker 7>what it was that we didn't.

0:13:59.440 --> 0:14:01.080
<v Speaker 3>Actually a similar story last week.

0:14:01.240 --> 0:14:04.079
<v Speaker 5>Last weekend took the family to Daytona and my daughter

0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:05.960
<v Speaker 5>loves to boogie board with me. She likes going out

0:14:06.000 --> 0:14:08.479
<v Speaker 5>there and we ride the little waves in and I

0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:10.840
<v Speaker 5>felt something behind me that I kicked, and I looked

0:14:10.880 --> 0:14:12.920
<v Speaker 5>back and for three seconds I didn't know what it was.

0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:15.199
<v Speaker 5>So those three seconds were abject terror. But it was

0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:20.080
<v Speaker 5>a man tea float around out there. They don't like

<v Speaker 11>eleven back on and brought a lot of memories back.

0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:12.680
<v Speaker 11>And you know, it's good. It's good, you know, getting

0:16:12.720 --> 0:16:14.960
<v Speaker 11>back to to ball.

0:16:15.160 --> 0:16:15.360
<v Speaker 9>You know.

0:16:15.680 --> 0:16:18.960
<v Speaker 11>Media day is just another feeling, another step closer to

0:16:19.040 --> 0:16:20.800
<v Speaker 11>you know, the season is around the corner.

0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:23.000
<v Speaker 5>It does feel that way like it's it comes faster

0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:24.480
<v Speaker 5>every year. It feels like probably for you in the

0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:27.320
<v Speaker 5>year six as well, just it steaks up on you

0:16:27.360 --> 0:16:28.160
<v Speaker 5>faster every single year.

0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:31.120
<v Speaker 11>It feels like and it's like it's my second year

0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:34.520
<v Speaker 11>in Miami, six year in the league, and where I'm

0:16:34.520 --> 0:16:37.160
<v Speaker 11>at right now, I just you know, just living in

0:16:37.200 --> 0:16:39.480
<v Speaker 11>a moment, you know, be where your feet are. You know,

0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:42.000
<v Speaker 11>earlier in my years, I just couldn't wait to know.

0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:44.440
<v Speaker 11>I gotta stay on, you know, get to the second

0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:46.640
<v Speaker 11>contract and just certain other things as a young player

0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:50.120
<v Speaker 11>you so so worried about. And I'm got that year

0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:53.360
<v Speaker 11>left here, But where I'm out. I'm not thinking about

0:16:53.360 --> 0:16:56.680
<v Speaker 11>that like people people ask me, gotta not only a

0:16:56.760 --> 0:16:58.760
<v Speaker 11>two year But you know, I'm living in the moment,

0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:02.160
<v Speaker 11>you know what I'm saying, So lessens my anxiety or

0:17:02.320 --> 0:17:04.960
<v Speaker 11>whatever that may be. So that's where I'm.

0:17:04.840 --> 0:17:07.400
<v Speaker 5>As a father of two young children, I can tell

0:17:07.400 --> 0:17:09.240
<v Speaker 5>you that living in the moment is the most important

0:17:09.280 --> 0:17:10.520
<v Speaker 5>that you can do to soak it all up in

0:17:10.600 --> 0:17:12.720
<v Speaker 5>cherishire because it comes and goes so fast. I'm sure

0:17:12.880 --> 0:17:15.840
<v Speaker 5>a football career does as well. Definitely, you mentioned the

0:17:15.880 --> 0:17:17.399
<v Speaker 5>number change, and I remember, I think I remember your

0:17:17.400 --> 0:17:19.399
<v Speaker 5>tweeting about it, like you were contemplating doing it or not.

0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:21.400
<v Speaker 5>What led to the decision to go from fifty one

0:17:21.400 --> 0:17:21.879
<v Speaker 5>to eleven?

0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:26.560
<v Speaker 11>Like I said, just now, it's just like where I'm at,

0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:30.560
<v Speaker 11>I feel like I'm just in a different headspace the

0:17:30.640 --> 0:17:33.280
<v Speaker 11>where I was, you know, early in my going from

0:17:33.320 --> 0:17:35.960
<v Speaker 11>like college and know, being drafted in the sixth round,

0:17:36.160 --> 0:17:38.840
<v Speaker 11>you know, coming in just mad at the world, you know,

0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:41.520
<v Speaker 11>you know, and just like you know, that's that was

0:17:41.560 --> 0:17:41.960
<v Speaker 11>the modo.

0:17:42.160 --> 0:17:42.320
<v Speaker 8>Man.

0:17:42.400 --> 0:17:44.560
<v Speaker 11>Now I'm just like in like, okay, I'm here. You know,

0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:47.720
<v Speaker 11>I wouldn't take a tent, you know, I'm still hungry,

0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:51.720
<v Speaker 11>ambitious for more, but I'm enjoying, you know, the journey

0:17:51.760 --> 0:17:53.879
<v Speaker 11>and everything that has led up to this point. And

0:17:54.040 --> 0:17:58.040
<v Speaker 11>I just feel like, Okay, I wouldn't say it's a

0:17:58.119 --> 0:18:00.359
<v Speaker 11>different life because I've had this number. I've just like

0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:03.560
<v Speaker 11>it's just going just transitioning, you know, fifty one would

0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:07.840
<v Speaker 11>just like know that where my headspace was that in

0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:09.440
<v Speaker 11>my younger years when I was you know, now I've

0:18:09.480 --> 0:18:11.520
<v Speaker 11>learned so much, not like you know, I don't know,

0:18:11.520 --> 0:18:14.120
<v Speaker 11>it just came at the right time, said you had

0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 11>just left, uh you know when I came in aj

0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:19.000
<v Speaker 11>had you know, eleven and it was just like, you know,

0:18:19.480 --> 0:18:20.840
<v Speaker 11>it was a good time to have it, Like why

0:18:21.000 --> 0:18:24.600
<v Speaker 11>did it become available now going into this year? Why

0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:26.320
<v Speaker 11>I feel how I feel? You know what I'm saying.

0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:28.480
<v Speaker 11>And yeah, right, it just made sense.

0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:31.000
<v Speaker 5>That's and you were that at West Virginia too, right, right.

0:18:31.080 --> 0:18:32.840
<v Speaker 5>I just saw a highlight cliff the other day of

0:18:33.040 --> 0:18:36.040
<v Speaker 5>the Orange Bowl when West Virginia whooped up on Clemson.

0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:38.600
<v Speaker 3>Were you in before your time?

0:18:38.840 --> 0:18:39.679
<v Speaker 11>Before that was a.

0:18:39.680 --> 0:18:42.240
<v Speaker 5>Table on Austin and Gino Smith time. It wasn't that

0:18:42.280 --> 0:18:43.840
<v Speaker 5>long ago though, it was like right before you got there,

0:18:43.880 --> 0:18:44.199
<v Speaker 5>right a.

0:18:44.200 --> 0:18:46.560
<v Speaker 11>Couple of years before. That's how I came in twenty fifteen,

0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:49.080
<v Speaker 11>you graduated, Yeah.

0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:50.920
<v Speaker 5>And Gino had that like fifty fifty touchdown season like

0:18:51.040 --> 0:18:52.040
<v Speaker 5>twenty thirteen or something like that.

0:18:52.600 --> 0:18:55.440
<v Speaker 3>Good stuff. So I want to pivot to your foundation.

0:18:55.640 --> 0:18:57.520
<v Speaker 5>We talked about little before you jump on the podcast here,

0:18:57.520 --> 0:19:00.800
<v Speaker 5>but man, really really cool initiative, really cool purpose. Just

0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:02.280
<v Speaker 5>just tell us a little bit about not long ago.

0:19:03.200 --> 0:19:06.400
<v Speaker 11>Not long ago the name. Uh started with the name

0:19:06.440 --> 0:19:08.520
<v Speaker 11>and came up with My mom came up with it

0:19:09.040 --> 0:19:10.760
<v Speaker 11>just I don't know where she called me after working,

0:19:11.000 --> 0:19:13.880
<v Speaker 11>like because we were contemplating, you know, because it has

0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:16.679
<v Speaker 11>to you know, we want to stand for something just

0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:18.199
<v Speaker 11>can't get up there and you know, just talk to

0:19:18.240 --> 0:19:20.919
<v Speaker 11>these people, you know, just to do it. You know,

0:19:21.600 --> 0:19:26.879
<v Speaker 11>I wanted something authentic. That name, you know, rang and

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:29.159
<v Speaker 11>rang with me when she said it, and then it

0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:32.840
<v Speaker 11>made sense when I was talking to uh my partners

0:19:32.880 --> 0:19:36.280
<v Speaker 11>about it, and it's just something nearer to me.

0:19:36.520 --> 0:19:36.680
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

0:19:36.800 --> 0:19:38.800
<v Speaker 11>You know a lot of guys try to find something

0:19:38.840 --> 0:19:41.920
<v Speaker 11>after ball, and you know, you know, that's the worst

0:19:41.920 --> 0:19:43.679
<v Speaker 11>place to be, in my opinions, to be lost, you know,

0:19:43.680 --> 0:19:45.600
<v Speaker 11>because then you get in just this all types of

0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:47.919
<v Speaker 11>stuff and I just you know, been living in my

0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:51.679
<v Speaker 11>purpose and I've been blessed with you know, gets. So

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:55.840
<v Speaker 11>my my thing is to help someone that was once

0:19:55.920 --> 0:20:01.400
<v Speaker 11>in my position, whether that me maybe through talking programs.

0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:04.160
<v Speaker 11>Eventually I want to have a building back in since

0:20:04.160 --> 0:20:06.960
<v Speaker 11>the you know, uh for after school programs like Big

0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:11.360
<v Speaker 11>Brother programs, you know, but not long ago. It's uh,

0:20:11.560 --> 0:20:13.800
<v Speaker 11>it's towards no single women, I mean not single women,

0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:18.119
<v Speaker 11>single mothers and uh, the younger youth and dealing with

0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:21.840
<v Speaker 11>mental health, you know, you know, just seeing their environment,

0:20:21.920 --> 0:20:24.639
<v Speaker 11>you know, and thinking that's all it is. I was

0:20:24.720 --> 0:20:26.639
<v Speaker 11>blessed to be able to get out and you know,

0:20:26.680 --> 0:20:30.600
<v Speaker 11>experience so many things. Now I can open their minds

0:20:30.680 --> 0:20:33.480
<v Speaker 11>up to no new stuff, and I just feel like,

0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:35.480
<v Speaker 11>you know, why why wouldn't I be able to Why

0:20:35.480 --> 0:20:38.040
<v Speaker 11>wouldn't I do that? You know, That's where my heart is,

0:20:38.080 --> 0:20:41.200
<v Speaker 11>that where my mind is at. So the foundation after

0:20:41.359 --> 0:20:44.480
<v Speaker 11>you know, going to going into the league six years, Uh,

0:20:44.560 --> 0:20:48.040
<v Speaker 11>I finally got it open and up and running. So

0:20:48.520 --> 0:20:51.560
<v Speaker 11>uh that's that's where my off season has been, you know,

0:20:52.560 --> 0:20:55.280
<v Speaker 11>unter tours and uh, yeah's just keep building on. I

0:20:55.320 --> 0:20:59.280
<v Speaker 11>had my first event on Mother's Day single mothers and

0:20:59.400 --> 0:21:01.679
<v Speaker 11>they came out out uh and show a lot of

0:21:01.680 --> 0:21:05.240
<v Speaker 11>love back in Cincinnati. It's an annual thing that we

0:21:05.240 --> 0:21:08.000
<v Speaker 11>will continue to do, UH. But it was just so

0:21:08.119 --> 0:21:11.600
<v Speaker 11>much going into the first events, like and not even

0:21:11.640 --> 0:21:14.560
<v Speaker 11>just First Miss events as a whole, because I want

0:21:14.560 --> 0:21:16.320
<v Speaker 11>to be just involved. I want to be I want

0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:18.320
<v Speaker 11>to be involved in all the things. I don't want

0:21:18.359 --> 0:21:20.320
<v Speaker 11>to just have people take care of before me and

0:21:20.400 --> 0:21:23.320
<v Speaker 11>letting me know what's going on. I don't know, everybody

0:21:23.359 --> 0:21:25.119
<v Speaker 11>has a different way of doing things, but you know,

0:21:25.200 --> 0:21:27.040
<v Speaker 11>you want to be Yeah, I want to be more involved.

0:21:27.520 --> 0:21:29.920
<v Speaker 5>So when you when you reflect back on on your childhood,

0:21:29.960 --> 0:21:32.680
<v Speaker 5>because like to your to your point, like the authenticity

0:21:32.680 --> 0:21:35.280
<v Speaker 5>of it sounds really, for lack of a very term, authentic,

0:21:35.320 --> 0:21:36.639
<v Speaker 5>Like it sounds like it's very important to you and

0:21:36.680 --> 0:21:38.600
<v Speaker 5>you want to be, like we said, very hands on

0:21:38.640 --> 0:21:41.239
<v Speaker 5>involved when you reflect back on like your childhood and

0:21:41.359 --> 0:21:43.119
<v Speaker 5>just you know where I guess all this kind of

0:21:43.160 --> 0:21:46.240
<v Speaker 5>comes from. Do you think about how that impacted who

0:21:46.240 --> 0:21:48.720
<v Speaker 5>you are today? And like, I'm sure there's a certain

0:21:48.760 --> 0:21:51.320
<v Speaker 5>level of gratitude you feel for you know, maybe when

0:21:51.320 --> 0:21:53.480
<v Speaker 5>things got tough, they maybe harden you in a certain

0:21:53.520 --> 0:21:55.000
<v Speaker 5>way to put you in this position.

0:21:54.840 --> 0:21:57.040
<v Speaker 11>Right and you know at you know, when you once

0:21:57.080 --> 0:21:59.679
<v Speaker 11>you get older, and once I got in the lead,

0:21:59.720 --> 0:22:02.320
<v Speaker 11>they like when you once you come in the building

0:22:02.320 --> 0:22:05.119
<v Speaker 11>and leave your leave your problems at the door, you

0:22:05.119 --> 0:22:07.359
<v Speaker 11>know what I'm saying. And I already learned that at

0:22:07.400 --> 0:22:10.200
<v Speaker 11>a young age because of my how my mom handled

0:22:10.280 --> 0:22:13.960
<v Speaker 11>her situations. And you know, you know, she worked at

0:22:14.000 --> 0:22:17.040
<v Speaker 11>General Motors growing up, a car factory for people that

0:22:17.119 --> 0:22:19.639
<v Speaker 11>don't know, and she just worked on car parts as

0:22:19.680 --> 0:22:21.359
<v Speaker 11>a lot of labor for a woman, you know what

0:22:21.359 --> 0:22:25.159
<v Speaker 11>I'm saying. And she she came in, you know, and

0:22:26.000 --> 0:22:27.720
<v Speaker 11>it was a mom you know what I'm saying. And

0:22:27.920 --> 0:22:32.359
<v Speaker 11>everybody doesn't take that life, you know, the same they'll

0:22:32.400 --> 0:22:34.280
<v Speaker 11>they'll come in and take it out on kids or

0:22:34.440 --> 0:22:38.600
<v Speaker 11>husband and wife, whatever it may be. And she she

0:22:38.640 --> 0:22:41.520
<v Speaker 11>didn't know deal with her childs that way. So as

0:22:41.560 --> 0:22:44.280
<v Speaker 11>a young age and I'm I'm getting older, I'm like

0:22:45.000 --> 0:22:47.359
<v Speaker 11>I'm realizing, like the woman you shouldn't be working his

0:22:47.480 --> 0:22:50.000
<v Speaker 11>long hours, you know, third shift, Like I'm coming after school,

0:22:50.000 --> 0:22:51.800
<v Speaker 11>she's going to work at three, you know, to like

0:22:51.880 --> 0:22:56.840
<v Speaker 11>eleven or whatever long that maybe as a kid, as

0:22:56.840 --> 0:23:00.000
<v Speaker 11>I'm getting older, I'm like my mama shouldn't be working

0:23:00.080 --> 0:23:02.840
<v Speaker 11>and these this is a hard job just for older men,

0:23:02.920 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 11>you know what I'm saying. And you know, I was

0:23:04.880 --> 0:23:07.679
<v Speaker 11>just just learning and and she of didn't even know

0:23:07.720 --> 0:23:10.840
<v Speaker 11>she was teaching me, you know what I'm saying. And

0:23:11.240 --> 0:23:17.880
<v Speaker 11>that's just it's just that's just one example of how

0:23:18.000 --> 0:23:21.359
<v Speaker 11>I've become who I am and how I can relate

0:23:21.400 --> 0:23:23.880
<v Speaker 11>to these kids in these certain situations, like.

0:23:23.880 --> 0:23:24.760
<v Speaker 3>She leaves by example.

0:23:24.760 --> 0:23:27.480
<v Speaker 5>For you, maybe subconsciously it's it's what makes the impact

0:23:27.520 --> 0:23:29.040
<v Speaker 5>on you. But now you have a position where you

0:23:29.040 --> 0:23:31.159
<v Speaker 5>have a platform you can go and and you know,

0:23:31.280 --> 0:23:34.160
<v Speaker 5>not subconsciously, very very in your face and be there

0:23:34.200 --> 0:23:36.159
<v Speaker 5>for these kids. And I'm sure that's super powerful for

0:23:36.200 --> 0:23:36.520
<v Speaker 5>them too.

0:23:37.520 --> 0:23:39.280
<v Speaker 11>Ex definitely. And it's like, you know, you can see

0:23:39.320 --> 0:23:42.879
<v Speaker 11>a kid that when you talk to you. When I

0:23:42.880 --> 0:23:45.320
<v Speaker 11>go back home, kids ask me all types of questions

0:23:45.359 --> 0:23:49.119
<v Speaker 11>and you know, you can see that they can know

0:23:49.160 --> 0:23:52.720
<v Speaker 11>if you kids have a way of knowing, they do

0:23:53.359 --> 0:23:55.800
<v Speaker 11>a bullspit, know what I'm saying, Like you know, like

0:23:56.280 --> 0:23:58.679
<v Speaker 11>and you know you can't just be there and just

0:23:58.720 --> 0:24:02.040
<v Speaker 11>like just show up, you know. So that's why you

0:24:02.040 --> 0:24:04.439
<v Speaker 11>know how I went about it. That's the way I

0:24:04.440 --> 0:24:05.040
<v Speaker 11>went about it.

0:24:05.080 --> 0:24:06.600
<v Speaker 3>Nobody's more honest than a child.

0:24:06.640 --> 0:24:07.000
<v Speaker 11>Man.

0:24:07.119 --> 0:24:08.840
<v Speaker 5>My wife is a teacher, and she like, they'll tell

0:24:08.880 --> 0:24:10.640
<v Speaker 5>her like, you don't look good today, Like you, what's

0:24:10.680 --> 0:24:11.040
<v Speaker 5>your makeup?

0:24:12.280 --> 0:24:13.040
<v Speaker 3>Chill a little bit.

0:24:13.280 --> 0:24:17.120
<v Speaker 5>No, they don't care exactly. Man, Well, that's really cool

0:24:17.119 --> 0:24:18.760
<v Speaker 5>to hear that. This is why I like having these podcasts.

0:24:18.760 --> 0:24:20.280
<v Speaker 5>You get to know you a little better. We are

0:24:20.520 --> 0:24:22.000
<v Speaker 5>getting pretty long here, but I do want to talk

0:24:22.000 --> 0:24:23.439
<v Speaker 5>a little bit of football, if that's okay with you,

0:24:23.480 --> 0:24:27.840
<v Speaker 5>because man, like so full transparency. I do radio with

0:24:27.880 --> 0:24:30.440
<v Speaker 5>Seth Levit Oj McDuffie. They host the fish Tank podcast.

0:24:30.640 --> 0:24:33.000
<v Speaker 5>OJ played here for like ten years. Two of my

0:24:33.000 --> 0:24:35.320
<v Speaker 5>best friends down in the area. And when we signed you,

0:24:35.400 --> 0:24:37.879
<v Speaker 5>I'm like, go watch this dude play football. And I

0:24:38.160 --> 0:24:40.320
<v Speaker 5>had my buddy Seth, who's close with Zach Thomas. I'm like,

0:24:40.359 --> 0:24:42.520
<v Speaker 5>he reminds me of Zach. But the way he anticipates,

0:24:42.520 --> 0:24:44.320
<v Speaker 5>in the way he plays the fast and he's just

0:24:44.359 --> 0:24:45.840
<v Speaker 5>in the back of before you can even you know,

0:24:45.880 --> 0:24:47.280
<v Speaker 5>get a pulling guard to him.

0:24:47.440 --> 0:24:48.360
<v Speaker 3>Where does that come from?

0:24:48.359 --> 0:24:48.560
<v Speaker 7>Man?

0:24:48.600 --> 0:24:51.320
<v Speaker 3>Like that, there's no way that you can like, I

0:24:51.359 --> 0:24:51.639
<v Speaker 3>don't know.

0:24:51.800 --> 0:24:53.600
<v Speaker 5>Part of me says, you don't either, just have that,

0:24:53.640 --> 0:24:55.840
<v Speaker 5>but you also probably just can't train that. Where does

0:24:55.880 --> 0:24:58.480
<v Speaker 5>the instinct for a linebacker come from that you have?

0:25:02.320 --> 0:25:04.560
<v Speaker 11>It is a tough question because you know, I'm not

0:25:04.680 --> 0:25:07.560
<v Speaker 11>going I am very blessed. I am very blessed, and

0:25:07.640 --> 0:25:09.920
<v Speaker 11>I'm blessed with just feeling. You know, I feel a

0:25:09.960 --> 0:25:12.919
<v Speaker 11>lot of stuff out and just a thought, and I

0:25:12.920 --> 0:25:16.920
<v Speaker 11>trust myself. You know. It's like I got to this point,

0:25:16.920 --> 0:25:18.960
<v Speaker 11>like why would I stop trusting myself? Now, That's why

0:25:18.960 --> 0:25:21.440
<v Speaker 11>I when I have doubts and stuff like that, even

0:25:21.520 --> 0:25:23.720
<v Speaker 11>like should I shoot even just like me and play

0:25:23.800 --> 0:25:25.680
<v Speaker 11>like I'm thinking, It's just like it's you got to

0:25:25.680 --> 0:25:27.760
<v Speaker 11>be a fast thinker on that field because stuff happens

0:25:28.080 --> 0:25:31.160
<v Speaker 11>transition reverse. It's like you have to think fast and

0:25:31.760 --> 0:25:34.320
<v Speaker 11>even like me and play, I'm like, okay, shoot like

0:25:34.400 --> 0:25:37.000
<v Speaker 11>because it's like you don't have a certain amount of

0:25:37.000 --> 0:25:40.280
<v Speaker 11>time before the gap closes. So I trust myself even

0:25:40.320 --> 0:25:44.840
<v Speaker 11>if it's just like I read a lot of pase

0:25:44.960 --> 0:25:47.679
<v Speaker 11>not read. But I'm not going to sit here and

0:25:47.720 --> 0:25:49.920
<v Speaker 11>tell you that I'm in that film room day and night.

0:25:50.720 --> 0:25:54.439
<v Speaker 11>I watched film most definitely. But I also I'm just

0:25:54.440 --> 0:25:57.399
<v Speaker 11>a ball player. I've been playing ball a long time,

0:25:57.880 --> 0:25:59.960
<v Speaker 11>So I just not just know certain things. And then

0:26:00.040 --> 0:26:01.960
<v Speaker 11>when once they give it to me, I'm like, you

0:26:02.080 --> 0:26:04.160
<v Speaker 11>gotta know, I see this right, you got like even

0:26:04.200 --> 0:26:06.159
<v Speaker 11>like a line of So that's why even like if

0:26:06.200 --> 0:26:07.639
<v Speaker 11>it's like I don't want to give my whole you

0:26:07.680 --> 0:26:10.360
<v Speaker 11>know what I'm saying, but my whole little. But it's

0:26:10.359 --> 0:26:12.959
<v Speaker 11>just certain things I see and I use a lot

0:26:12.960 --> 0:26:16.760
<v Speaker 11>of stuff to my advantage, you know, my speed, uh

0:26:17.800 --> 0:26:20.359
<v Speaker 11>even my size, you know, because a lot of get

0:26:20.440 --> 0:26:22.359
<v Speaker 11>up to the second level is just about to be

0:26:23.119 --> 0:26:25.199
<v Speaker 11>come here and moove. No, I'm about to come and

0:26:25.240 --> 0:26:28.000
<v Speaker 11>you about to feel all twenty right here. You know

0:26:28.000 --> 0:26:31.600
<v Speaker 11>what I'm saying, you know me? So yeah, And then

0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:36.679
<v Speaker 11>I always had an interview with Tyler, uh say that's

0:26:36.680 --> 0:26:42.280
<v Speaker 11>the name, might be sorry, but he asked me about like, no,

0:26:44.160 --> 0:26:46.040
<v Speaker 11>I play my hair on fire, you know, like he

0:26:46.080 --> 0:26:47.399
<v Speaker 11>says that, like a lot of people tell me I

0:26:47.400 --> 0:26:51.359
<v Speaker 11>play like people owe me money. They do. But it's like,

0:26:51.440 --> 0:26:54.440
<v Speaker 11>you know, it's a won't like for some people. You

0:26:54.440 --> 0:26:55.880
<v Speaker 11>know what I'm saying, Like I want to play ball,

0:26:55.960 --> 0:26:59.160
<v Speaker 11>like you know, I want to know reach this goal.

0:26:59.240 --> 0:27:00.879
<v Speaker 11>And it's like to me, I'm out there, like I

0:27:01.000 --> 0:27:03.720
<v Speaker 11>need to know I need to. It's bigger than me.

0:27:03.880 --> 0:27:08.040
<v Speaker 11>So that's how I go about like whether it's practice,

0:27:09.480 --> 0:27:13.440
<v Speaker 11>d a walk through, that's just how I attack it.

0:27:13.520 --> 0:27:16.320
<v Speaker 5>You can't you can't hide, and you cannot manufacture passion.

0:27:16.760 --> 0:27:19.240
<v Speaker 5>That's that's like this is you know, it's not football,

0:27:19.280 --> 0:27:21.440
<v Speaker 5>but this is my passion. I love making good episodes

0:27:21.440 --> 0:27:23.720
<v Speaker 5>for fans. I love analyzing the game and trying to

0:27:23.720 --> 0:27:26.119
<v Speaker 5>make myself smarter. And when we have big wins. I

0:27:26.119 --> 0:27:27.800
<v Speaker 5>love the Dolphins, man, I'm a huge Dolphins fan. So

0:27:27.800 --> 0:27:30.200
<v Speaker 5>when we have big wins, that shows up in the podcast,

0:27:30.200 --> 0:27:32.360
<v Speaker 5>and I feel like that's kind of the same mindset

0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:34.439
<v Speaker 5>you have in terms of like, this is my favorite

0:27:34.440 --> 0:27:36.880
<v Speaker 5>thing to do, and I, like you said, you want

0:27:36.960 --> 0:27:39.359
<v Speaker 5>to do these things and it shows up man, like

0:27:39.359 --> 0:27:39.760
<v Speaker 5>you can't.

0:27:39.800 --> 0:27:40.880
<v Speaker 3>You can't manufacture that.

0:27:41.280 --> 0:27:44.280
<v Speaker 11>Yeah, okay, some people want some people want to do

0:27:44.320 --> 0:27:46.320
<v Speaker 11>this thing like like coach, I want to go It's

0:27:46.359 --> 0:27:48.400
<v Speaker 11>like I want to go tackle them, Like it's a

0:27:48.400 --> 0:27:51.040
<v Speaker 11>as a mentality, like I would say, like once I

0:27:51.040 --> 0:27:53.240
<v Speaker 11>got to college and we had a swim coach named

0:27:53.240 --> 0:27:56.639
<v Speaker 11>Mike Joseph. He's still there, one of the best shimp

0:27:56.680 --> 0:27:59.119
<v Speaker 11>coaches I've had, but he told me like he had

0:27:59.119 --> 0:28:01.720
<v Speaker 11>a group, he had a team, mean or whatever. Right

0:28:01.720 --> 0:28:03.480
<v Speaker 11>before it break out, He's like, you want to be

0:28:03.480 --> 0:28:05.879
<v Speaker 11>the guy. You're not a guy. He was talking to

0:28:05.880 --> 0:28:07.359
<v Speaker 11>me with a group, not a guy, you know, not a

0:28:07.359 --> 0:28:09.720
<v Speaker 11>guy to you commure every day a guy shows up

0:28:10.040 --> 0:28:12.840
<v Speaker 11>every day. You don't pick and choose when it show up.

0:28:12.840 --> 0:28:14.919
<v Speaker 11>You know what I'm saying, You don't just turn it on.

0:28:15.200 --> 0:28:18.080
<v Speaker 11>Like so even though I had the mentality, I was

0:28:18.160 --> 0:28:22.159
<v Speaker 11>just more what would I say, just attentive to my

0:28:22.320 --> 0:28:25.840
<v Speaker 11>daily habits, Like are you just saying are you going

0:28:25.840 --> 0:28:27.280
<v Speaker 11>out there? And you live in it every day? So

0:28:27.600 --> 0:28:29.960
<v Speaker 11>that's that's how I attack it, Like you can't. You

0:28:30.000 --> 0:28:31.920
<v Speaker 11>can't tell me you the guy. You you know what

0:28:31.920 --> 0:28:34.000
<v Speaker 11>I'm saying. You really turned it on on certain days,

0:28:34.000 --> 0:28:35.120
<v Speaker 11>you know what I'm saying. That's not a guy.

0:28:35.359 --> 0:28:37.960
<v Speaker 3>You can't say exactly.

0:28:38.080 --> 0:28:40.560
<v Speaker 5>I love that so and thinking about that, I'll get

0:28:40.600 --> 0:28:41.920
<v Speaker 5>you one more question before I get you out of here,

0:28:41.920 --> 0:28:44.480
<v Speaker 5>because when I think about your play style and I

0:28:44.480 --> 0:28:47.280
<v Speaker 5>think about how this offense plays, it seems like you

0:28:47.320 --> 0:28:49.920
<v Speaker 5>know the old saying iron sharp AND's iron like we

0:28:50.000 --> 0:28:52.160
<v Speaker 5>talk about false keys and all things this offense does.

0:28:52.320 --> 0:28:54.320
<v Speaker 5>Tell me about how how they make you better.

0:28:55.040 --> 0:28:58.520
<v Speaker 11>It's great, man, I think it. It makes me a

0:28:58.520 --> 0:29:02.520
<v Speaker 11>better player all around, especially you know, going against Tour

0:29:02.960 --> 0:29:05.959
<v Speaker 11>he's so good at look you off or even just

0:29:06.000 --> 0:29:09.239
<v Speaker 11>like no look throws, just just keep you on your

0:29:09.280 --> 0:29:11.360
<v Speaker 11>your piece of queues. Even tho old lineman. They're they

0:29:11.360 --> 0:29:13.080
<v Speaker 11>get up to you fast. They work there every day.

0:29:13.480 --> 0:29:16.720
<v Speaker 11>And he's dead Vet, but he's moving, you know what

0:29:16.760 --> 0:29:19.560
<v Speaker 11>I'm saying. Lambs moving. We got Brewer here and now

0:29:19.560 --> 0:29:20.080
<v Speaker 11>he's moving.

0:29:20.200 --> 0:29:20.440
<v Speaker 4>Rob.

0:29:20.840 --> 0:29:23.120
<v Speaker 11>All these guys can move, and they're big and smart.

0:29:23.120 --> 0:29:26.000
<v Speaker 11>You know. As far as keys, you have to be disciplined.

0:29:26.160 --> 0:29:29.560
<v Speaker 11>And it's great for me because you know, I want

0:29:29.600 --> 0:29:34.400
<v Speaker 11>all the great work that I can get. So playing

0:29:34.400 --> 0:29:37.720
<v Speaker 11>against one is uh is good because I know a

0:29:37.760 --> 0:29:40.080
<v Speaker 11>lot of people can't do those no look past you know,

0:29:40.160 --> 0:29:42.920
<v Speaker 11>it's not everybody's not good out there doing that. And

0:29:42.960 --> 0:29:46.400
<v Speaker 11>Matt Stafford he got me on time to see he's

0:29:46.480 --> 0:29:49.880
<v Speaker 11>nasty with it, you know. So that's just just certain

0:29:50.240 --> 0:29:53.640
<v Speaker 11>certain you know, small things in my game that they

0:29:53.760 --> 0:29:54.840
<v Speaker 11>helped me stay on top of.

0:29:55.120 --> 0:29:56.640
<v Speaker 5>So I keep telling you one more, but I'm I'm

0:29:56.680 --> 0:29:58.160
<v Speaker 5>just kind of fascinate because you open the can of

0:29:58.200 --> 0:30:01.440
<v Speaker 5>worms there with two because because and I I said

0:30:01.440 --> 0:30:02.880
<v Speaker 5>this in the podcast all the time, I try to

0:30:03.560 --> 0:30:07.600
<v Speaker 5>I feel like the way football analysis is nowadays in

0:30:07.640 --> 0:30:09.040
<v Speaker 5>the media landscape.

0:30:08.560 --> 0:30:09.400
<v Speaker 3>And you know what do we know?

0:30:09.840 --> 0:30:13.680
<v Speaker 5>I feel like it's big arm, run fast, like that's

0:30:13.720 --> 0:30:15.960
<v Speaker 5>all they ever look at. But and I think it's

0:30:16.000 --> 0:30:17.600
<v Speaker 5>a lot more than that in the quarterback position. But

0:30:17.640 --> 0:30:19.120
<v Speaker 5>I want to hear from someone that has to see

0:30:19.120 --> 0:30:21.400
<v Speaker 5>it and has to account for it. What makes two

0:30:21.480 --> 0:30:22.200
<v Speaker 5>us so special?

0:30:24.360 --> 0:30:26.320
<v Speaker 11>I would think I would say it's that it's because

0:30:27.920 --> 0:30:29.520
<v Speaker 11>he's different than a lot of quarterbacks. You know what

0:30:29.520 --> 0:30:35.360
<v Speaker 11>I'm saying, as far as reads goes, Uh, he has

0:30:35.400 --> 0:30:39.200
<v Speaker 11>a he has a special way of reading them and

0:30:39.280 --> 0:30:41.280
<v Speaker 11>getting you to read off. You know what I'm saying,

0:30:42.400 --> 0:30:44.280
<v Speaker 11>Just certain things like all right, quarterback is going to

0:30:44.320 --> 0:30:46.600
<v Speaker 11>do this. It's certain things that every quarterback does, whether

0:30:46.640 --> 0:30:51.760
<v Speaker 11>it's like timing scanning the field. Uh, but the way

0:30:51.800 --> 0:30:56.920
<v Speaker 11>he and the other receivers have that timing, you know,

0:30:57.880 --> 0:31:00.520
<v Speaker 11>as far as he knows where they both have connection.

0:31:00.560 --> 0:31:02.200
<v Speaker 11>You know what I'm saying. It's hard to kind of

0:31:02.200 --> 0:31:04.080
<v Speaker 11>say unless you just out there and you're in it.

0:31:04.120 --> 0:31:05.800
<v Speaker 11>You know what I'm saying. It's me even trying to

0:31:05.800 --> 0:31:08.080
<v Speaker 11>describe it in my head is kind of kind of

0:31:08.080 --> 0:31:11.640
<v Speaker 11>hard because I haven't said it out loud. But he's

0:31:11.720 --> 0:31:14.240
<v Speaker 11>just good at, you know, manufacturing that offense.

0:31:14.280 --> 0:31:14.400
<v Speaker 7>Man.

0:31:14.440 --> 0:31:16.000
<v Speaker 11>It's a lot of pieces over there, a lot of

0:31:16.040 --> 0:31:20.080
<v Speaker 11>moving pieces. And we have a great defense as well.

0:31:20.240 --> 0:31:26.000
<v Speaker 11>Especially we have a DC on new DC and he

0:31:26.080 --> 0:31:27.920
<v Speaker 11>we're going to give him a lot of different looks,

0:31:27.920 --> 0:31:31.400
<v Speaker 11>you know what I'm saying, especially like just holding stances

0:31:31.480 --> 0:31:36.200
<v Speaker 11>or shills or whatever that meat. Maybe we're also going

0:31:36.240 --> 0:31:38.080
<v Speaker 11>to be able to make him better for sure.

0:31:38.280 --> 0:31:40.640
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I could do another twy Mossy Man, I'll get

0:31:40.640 --> 0:31:43.040
