You got any time to jokes? That's tough. 30 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 1: Let me see if I think back to my days, 31 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,119 Speaker 1: we're real mature around here. It's a high intelligence level 32 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: for making eye. I don't know. I can't have nothing. 33 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 1: I can't think of nothing off the top of my hand. 34 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I google these. You know I'm not taking credit. 35 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: These are originals. Yeah, I don't. I don't have nothing 36 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 1: off the top of my head. But we got to 37 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 1: get back to the serious stuff here. Crop top croptop, 38 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: that's serious, serious stuff. How did the crop top start? 39 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: I'm just in that Florida heat man going through camp, 40 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 1: you know, trying to be as comfortable as possible getting 41 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: through practicing, and just something that kind of stuck with me, 42 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: you know, all throughout college and definitely followed me to 43 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: the NFL. Plus when you got the six pack. When 44 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: you got a six pack, you gotta show that off. 45 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: That's why I wear, you know, mid dress. I'm mid 46 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: drift guy. First of all, there, you don't even come 47 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: close to a six fact. Man, it's hidden by the fridge. 48 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,680 Speaker 1: So Roger Goodell comes to you and says, I'm looking 49 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: for some of your rules changes, Timmy journ again, you're 50 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: king for a day. You could take my job. Is 51 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: the crop top rule? Number one thing that you're changing? 52 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: Are you saying crop tops are totally legal? Now? I 53 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: have three rules that I would put in motion. Number one, 54 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 1: crop top, good choice. You gotta be able to wear 55 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: your jersey and how you prefer, you know, uh. Number 56 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: two no cut blocks, no more offensive lineman diving at 57 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: defensive lineman knees um. And number three you can do 58 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: whatever you want to the quarterback when you get there. 59 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: So I think that would be three um, pretty nice rules. 60 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: When when you daydream, like what do you do the quarterback? 61 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: Because it's like w W, like you have above your head, 62 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: you spin around on you like one figure and then 63 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: you just for me, you know, uh? I think every 64 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: defensive line. His dream is to get to you know, 65 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: getting the blind side hit on the quarterback, the one 66 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: when he's just you know, just just let the ball go, 67 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: getting ready to let the ball go, doesn't see you coming. 68 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: You know, he isn't tent stuff or anything. You know, 69 00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: those are the perfect ones, and they're very hard to 70 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: come by. Tom Brady, Brady, y'all gotta what's rookie year? 71 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 1: Guys getting into it? Yeah, what happened in Yeah? I 72 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,480 Speaker 1: got him my rookie year. Yeah, there's nothing better than 73 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: what's the story there? Tell me? Refreshed me on that 74 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: story because I remember he was up in your face 75 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: and I kind of feel like you were like, I 76 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: don't know what happened. It wasn't quite like that the 77 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: play when I think make fee made to play or 78 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 1: something like that. And I believe on the same exact 79 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: played um one of my old teammates that played offensive 80 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 1: line for them towards knee up on the same play 81 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: Brian story. So I kind of was turned around checking 82 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: on Stork or whatever to make sure he was okay. 83 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: And then I've seen you know, kind of a pole, 84 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 1: you know, like a ball, you know, getting ready to 85 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 1: go on. So I just kind of went over to 86 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: kind of pull the guys back, and someone got in 87 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,559 Speaker 1: my face. I remember, and I just remember reaching cross 88 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 1: and trying to, you know, just mushed him back or 89 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,239 Speaker 1: something like push him away, and I kind of slipped, 90 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: and you know, Captain insane over them, you know, as 91 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: I looking down, he was so fired up. Oh yeah, 92 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 1: he was mad about it. You know. I think he 93 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: probably remembered whenever they come down here in a couple 94 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: of weeks. So I can talk about poking Tom braiding 95 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: the aisle all day, but I actually want to get 96 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: into a little bit more serious subject with you. Timmy. Uh. 97 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,679 Speaker 1: You know, your your background is interesting. Grow up mostly 98 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: with your single mom in Jacksonville, Florida for nine years, 99 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: the first nine years of your life, and she's a 100 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 1: single mom and has trouble affording even to put you 101 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: into recreational football. You're sitting there buying plastic Walmart helmets 102 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: yourself to run around with. It wasn't until really, at 103 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:26,159 Speaker 1: nine years old, when you moved back in with your father. 104 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: I understand in Lake City that you started to gain 105 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: an appreciation for football. And he was a legend from 106 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: what I understand, playing football in that area. Can you 107 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: talk a little bit about that influence that your dad 108 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,960 Speaker 1: had on you. It was kind of funny, you know, 109 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,799 Speaker 1: uh when of our first had a chance to really 110 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: be around him a lot, a lot, you know, when 111 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 1: we're just getting a better understanding for each other. You know, 112 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: I grew up a Gata fan and my dad was 113 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: a Florida State fans. So we used to watch the 114 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 1: games together and just go edit. You know what I mean. 115 00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: We will argue all day, all night about the game 116 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. It's just amazing how you know, 117 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: things end up changed, and man, I ended up doing 118 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: it for the state and everything just worked out. Another 119 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: guy that you emulated was Warren Sat that you talked 120 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: about before the year, and this unfortunately kind of went 121 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: down like a pretty crappy path in the year. It 122 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: is pretty crappy, and you know, you tweet you change 123 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,600 Speaker 1: your number ninety nine. He said, you know that you 124 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: were emulating it was part of it was a tribute 125 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 1: to more and Sat and then he kind of responded, 126 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: not in a very nice way. So how do I 127 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: stop this? What was your first reaction when you saw that? 128 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: My first reaction was just like, what's going on. You 129 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: know what I mean, because it's the same guy. You 130 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: know that during the draft he was all for Timmy. 131 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. If you go and look 132 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: at the interviews when I got ready to run my forty, 133 00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: you know this is a guy that was, you know, 134 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: all for me. You know guy that I once I had. 135 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,160 Speaker 1: I had the chance to speak with him a time 136 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: or two, you know, and everything was positive. You know 137 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: what I mean. What transpired, you know, within within that time. 138 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you know, it 139 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,240 Speaker 1: is what it is. I can't I can't put my 140 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: focus into it, you know what I mean. That's not 141 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: going to change my views of him as a football player. 142 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: I still think he was a hell of a football player. Person, 143 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, you know what I mean, Well, how 144 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: do I look at him as a person. I wouldn't 145 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: say that o camera, you know what I mean. But 146 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: I mean it is what it is. Though, Man, you 147 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 1: know I'm going to have my success either way. You know, 148 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: I could care less. Did that hurt your feelings though? 149 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: I mean you kind of talked about this is somebody 150 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: that you look up to, and obviously you don't change 151 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 1: your number to somebody else's number to say I'm doing 152 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: it because it's kind of a you know, to pay 153 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 1: homage to him. You know, didn't hurt your feelings, No, 154 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: not at all. I came from nothing, you know what 155 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 1: I mean. I've seen worse. I've been through worse, way 156 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: worse than that. I could kill who he He's another factor, 157 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. I've been through worst I've 158 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 1: I've I've had to fight through worst of storms than that. 159 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: But you kept so You're still only nine this year, 160 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 1: So tell me how this goes when you change your number. 161 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: Have you been in the league for a couple of years, 162 00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: do you have to pay like I've heard you have 163 00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 1: to pay a certain amount to if there's your jerseys 164 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 1: that are selling the shelves or did you have to 165 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 1: do anything like that?

The one thing that you 174 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 1: and Warren snappen it's not just YouTube, but a lot 175 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 1: of a lot of people have this. You got swagger, 176 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: you play with that. Ryan and I have talked about that. 177 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 1: You know, you remind us in a lot of ways 178 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: of the old school Ravens defenses. Like when you come 179 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: to the line of scrimmage on the offense is coming 180 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: up there. I'm pretty sure of the time, you're dancing 181 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 1: whatever of this. There's music playing, you're dancing, those guys 182 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: come up. Where does that come from? How do you 183 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: get to that? I don't know. If it's confidence, where 184 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 1: does that come from? It's just a love for football, man. 185 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,679 Speaker 1: Like I've played like that my entire life. And my 186 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: mom always told me, like every now and then, like 187 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: if she's watching the game, specially like when I was 188 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 1: in college and she was watching the game and I 189 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:22,640 Speaker 1: just wasn't doing that of being myself, she would tell me, like, son, 190 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 1: you played better when you know you're out there having 191 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 1: fun and doing what you do. You know, you keep dancing, 192 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 1: don't stop, so I just go out there and have fun. Man, 193 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 1: This is amazing that you say that. Because I remember 194 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: last year before we exited out for our meetings, me 195 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: and Coach Brooks, we sat down and we talked, and 196 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: this was one of last like real conversations, you know, 197 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: face to face, you know, man and man.

And I felt like I was just like 205 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 1: the biggest compliment ever coming from C. C. B. You know, 206 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 1: because he's been there with those guys. You know, he 207 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: he know what it looks like. He know what it takes, 208 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 1: you know, to have a great defense. Saying for him 209 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 1: to just say that I could have even been a 210 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: part of something like that, it meant in the world 211 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 1: to me. And I never forget it what the offensive 212 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 1: lineman do when they were walking up to the line, 213 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 1: they see you just getting it for the most part. 214 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: You know, by the end of the game, who's ever 215 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,960 Speaker 1: in front of me? They are? They don't they don't 216 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 1: really like anybody the end of the game, you know 217 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 1: what I mean, multiple reasons. Oh yeah, for multiple reasons, 218 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,959 Speaker 1: you know. But I'm just having fun. Man, I'm not 219 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: doing it for attention. I'm not doing it for anything 220 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: for the girl. I don't care for that, you know 221 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:54,440 Speaker 1: what I mean. I'm just playing my game and just 222 00:11:54,520 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 1: having fun. The most swag on the defense then all day, 223 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,439 Speaker 1: oh day that I'm not even for this take it 224 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: guess that, you know, But hey, we got other guys 225 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,839 Speaker 1: who who who? Who? Who will say that it's them, 226 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's guys out up playing with a 227 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: nice game. You know. Look at fifty five. You know 228 00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: he plays with a with a heck of a swagger. 229 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: But of course I'm comfortence on myself. Is that something 230 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: that you you know, Like, now you're in your third 231 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: year and you are having a really good season, do 232 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 1: you feel like now you can even show a little 233 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: bit more of that? Like as a rookie, do you 234 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 1: feel like I kind of got to stay in my 235 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 1: lane a little bit and not show a little too 236 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: a little too much of that. How do you kind 237 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: of handle that? Of course, I've always felt like I 238 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 1: kind of had to wait my turn as a rookie, 239 00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: especially with Heloti, you know, being here, you know I 240 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 1: never want to step on his toes or of anybody 241 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: the wrong way here. You know, I knew that I 242 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 1: had to, you know, wait, my weight, my turn, and 243 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: things are kind of jail a lot for me. Three 244 00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: sacks in four games. You had four each of your 245 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: first seasons. What has really clicked with you? Would you say? Um? 246 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: The things? Just a mindset, man, I'm playing harder, playing smarter, 247 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: you know, I'm doing the little things man, away from football, 248 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 1: I mean, away from the facility, you know, to help 249 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,959 Speaker 1: me prepare for Sunday. Man, Just watching so much film, 250 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,719 Speaker 1: falling asleep, watching film, odds turning red, you know, just 251 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,679 Speaker 1: seeing the same thing over and over and over. When 252 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: you get in the game, it's just it's so slow 253 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 1: to you. You know, eight times out of ten, I 254 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: know to play before it's even being round, you know, 255 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,439 Speaker 1: especially if it's obvious run down, if it's the first down, 256 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 1: I probably know the play before. That's quite an advantage. 257 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: I know everything, you know, just from the way we 258 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 1: study and the way that we practice. Heire and just 259 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: the guys, not just me, but not just the coaches. 260 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 1: Is the guys like Terrell saw, it's around you who's 261 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: having an extra eating is during the week to make 262 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: sure you know, you understand what you're doing. Were you 263 00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: always like that though? I mean if you go back 264 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: to maybe your rookie or your second season, or even 265 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: back to college, were you somebody that put in that 266 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 1: kind of time in the film room and knew what 267 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 1: was coming? Or is that something that has developed over 268 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: the last year. Um, I think I have a better 269 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: under I feel like I've always done it. I have 270 00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: a better understanding now. You know. It's one thing to 271 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,560 Speaker 1: actually look at something and still not understand what you're 272 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: looking at. It's like reading, like if you're reading a paragraph. 273 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: You can read a paragraph and not understand what you 274 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,560 Speaker 1: just read, you know what I mean. But I feel 275 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: like as I've been here and I'm learning what personnels is, 276 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 1: what zebra person, the tiger person and all these different 277 00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 1: little things, these things that I never knew. I was 278 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 1: just out there playing, you know what I mean. But 279 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: as time kind of went on and I'm learning, I'm 280 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 1: educating myself, and I got coaches educating me. You know, 281 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 1: Coach couther has done a great job, but just helping 282 00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: develop me. You know, it's made it easier for me. 283 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 1: Do you feel like here you're kind of auditioning to 284 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 1: be one of those Ravens that stays here for a 285 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: long time? I mean, you're going into next year will 286 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: be your contract year, I believe correct. And like Coach 287 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: Brooks said, you're a guy who feels like they're a Raven. 288 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: You know you embody raven. Do you feel like you're 289 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: auditioning for that? I pray that I am, you know 290 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: what I mean. I hope and pray that. You know, 291 00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 1: I spent my career here. You know, there's nowhere else 292 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: I would rather be. You know, I remember just going 293 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: through that draft process and telling myself, whoever takes the chance, 294 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, before my time is up, 295 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna make sure it's worthwhile, you know what I mean? 296 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: And uh, I feel like I'm doing it. I remember 297 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 1: being on the conference call right after you got drafted. 298 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if I've ever talked to a guy 299 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 1: who was as like fired up and motivated by falling 300 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: further down the draft. You know then they thought they 301 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: would go. I mean, it just seemed like that little 302 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 1: fire under you immediately right it definitely did. Man, it 303 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: it hurt, you know, just why guys that you know 304 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: you're better than you know what I mean? And even 305 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: in a sense, I felt like I was getting shorthanded 306 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: in a sense because you know, even without the drug tests, 307 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: I felt like, well, if I would have got drafted 308 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:14,840 Speaker 1: at you know, in the first round, you know, I 309 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 1: feel like there's still probably guys I feel like I 310 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 1: was better than I got took in front of me. 311 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 1: So I always feel like I got a point to 312 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: prove Ryan right up. The fact that you know you're 313 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: a year away from the contract year, but you've really 314 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 1: come on. Is that every guy says, you know, I 315 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 1: just want to play football, and it's not something I 316 00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: think about or whatever. But as a player, is that 317 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 1: something in the back of your mind you're saying, Look, 318 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: I either have a big pay day coming or have 319 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: one walking out the door. I need to really get 320 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: it together and start playing at a really high level 321 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: so I can go out there and get that big 322 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: pay day in two years. You know what I'm saying, Like, 323 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: is that something that you really think about and you're like, 324 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: the time is now for me to go out there 325 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: and try to earn that big time, pay day, Oh no, 326 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 1: when it when it comes to just a pay day 327 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 1: or anything like that, of course not.

But Justin Forcette was a guy who 416 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 1: would just come down and shoot the breeze with us 417 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: all the time.
