1 00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:04,240 Speaker 1: All you need to know about the Colts in one place. 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:08,680 Speaker 1: The Colts Daily Update starts now. Here's the voice of 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: the Colts, Matt Taylor. Good evening on a Tuesday. Welcome 4 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 1: into the Daily Update and its regular season time. Week 5 00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: one is finally here. The Colts pick off the seasons 6 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: Sunday against the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium down in Texas. 7 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 1: You can hear the game right here on ninety three 8 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: five and one oh seven five the fan coming up tonight. 9 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: We're loaded. We're gonna discuss the Colts urgency going into 10 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,120 Speaker 1: week one, and also we're gonna leave time in segment 11 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: two tonight. You here from Colts rookie linebacker Joe Joe Doman, 12 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: who made the team as an undrafted free agent out 13 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: of Nebraska. He's got a great story and a great 14 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,479 Speaker 1: future ahead of him here with the Colts in the NFL. 15 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 1: But let's start with a roster move today. The Colts 16 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: have signed Philip Lindsay to the practice squad. He was 17 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: with the team during the preseason before being released last 18 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:57,959 Speaker 1: week when the team had to trim the roster down 19 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 1: to fifty three players. He cleared, so he's back with 20 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: the Colts, So the Colts now have two running backs 21 00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,479 Speaker 1: on the practice squad, Philip Lindsay and rookie DeVante Price. 22 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: And also at this move, the Colts are at the 23 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: seventeen player limit on their practice squads, so a full 24 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: team both active and practice squad going into the regular season. 25 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,959 Speaker 1: Looking ahead to Sunday, the Colts have won four straight 26 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: games against the Texans, including two games last year or 27 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: they outscored Houston sixty two to three. In fact, the 28 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,279 Speaker 1: Colts have won nine of the last eleven games against 29 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: the Texans in the series. Houston was four and thirteen 30 00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: last season and third overall worst record in the NFL, 31 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: and since winning the division in twenty nineteen, the Texans 32 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:45,120 Speaker 1: have gone eight and twenty five since and they lost 33 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: nine games last season by ten points and five games 34 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: by at least twenty points in two twenty one. I 35 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: know your ears are bleeding when you hear this for 36 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 1: the four hundredth time, probably this week, but a Coults 37 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: are looking to break an eight game losing streak in 38 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: season openers. The colts last season opening win was twenty 39 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: thirteen against the then Oakland Raiders. The Colts haven't won 40 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,680 Speaker 1: a week one road game since two thousand and six, 41 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 1: and they're oh and two in games where they opened 42 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,679 Speaker 1: this season on the road at Houston. They lost there 43 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 1: in twenty ten and twenty eleven. All that has nothing 44 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: to do with this Sunday's game, But of course we're 45 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 1: all sick of bringing that up and hearing about it, 46 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: and you know, players and coaches are tired of hearing 47 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: about it as well, including Michael Pittman Junior. I mean, 48 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: I've probably heard that a thousand times since, like since 49 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: I've been here. I think it's since like two fourteen 50 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,520 Speaker 1: or something like that. So we're just looking to break 51 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: that street. You know, We're just wanted to do whatever 52 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:44,040 Speaker 1: it takes. So like whatever that's gonna be thirteen there 53 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 1: you go even worse. But yeah, yeah, absolutely, So that's 54 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: what we're trying to do. You know, we're gonna fight 55 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 1: our hardest, We're gonna prepare and just treat every day 56 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: like it's like a game, and um, that should put 57 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: us in a great position to go out there and 58 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: play out. Well, that's Michael Pittman Junior, who knows the 59 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 1: Colts have to have some urgency about them to start 60 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 1: the season because the regular season is here. It's all 61 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 1: hands on deck. Preseasons over training camps behind them, the 62 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: rosters already formed. So a lot of eyes now this 63 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: week will be placed on all pro linebackers Shaquille Leonard, 64 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: and we're gonna see how he responds to a full 65 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: week of practice this week. The Colts are gonna let 66 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 1: him practice and then make a decision on his availability 67 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: for Sunday's game. He returned to the practice field last 68 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: week after missing all of training camp all of the 69 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: offseason workout program due to rehab from offseason back surgery. 70 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: If he is able to play on Sunday, the question 71 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: then becomes how much does he play and can he 72 00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: play the entire game when you factor in conditioning. So 73 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: an answer on that will likely not come until the 74 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: end of the week and potentially not until game day 75 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: on Sunday. And earlier this week, Frank Reich talked about 76 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: the potential of Leonard playing under a pitch count in 77 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: week one. Yeah, interesting questions, Like in my mind, I'm saying, well, 78 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: there's probably a natural progression to a pitch count, but 79 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: I'm not saying that that's what it's going to have 80 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 1: to be. You know what, I mean like it seems 81 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: to me like that, Like no doctor has said that 82 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: to me, but it feels to me like, hey, that 83 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: might be the right thing to do. But I just 84 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: think we have to see how he progresses. I think 85 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 1: he's doing well. I think he's making progress. You know. 86 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna like, in my brain says, yeah, they 87 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 1: probably have a pitch count the first time he's out 88 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 1: there playing in the game, But I'm not gonna make 89 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: an absolute because what you find over the years is 90 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,719 Speaker 1: sometimes different players respond differently, and I don't know the 91 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: full extent the injury is kind of a unique injury. 92 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: And if he gets to a point where he's comfortable 93 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: and they say, hey, twenty plays or seventy plays, it's 94 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: all the same. If from a conditioning standpoint, if he's 95 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: ready to go, then then you let him play. He's 96 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: it's it's shack. I mean, he's a great player, but 97 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 1: we want to be smart as well. So we'll see 98 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,039 Speaker 1: as we'll see as it goes. That's Frank Reich on 99 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: Shaquille Lynn and the possible return this weekend, And Frank 100 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 1: brought up conditioning in the aspect there that's something you 101 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 1: have to keep in mind. Also keep in mind the 102 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: Colts have a very very good linebacking corps, some good 103 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: depth of that position. If Leonard is not ready to play, 104 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 1: the Colts have Zeyer Franklin. They've got E. J. Speed, 105 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 1: two very good veteran linebackers who play at a high level. 106 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 1: Should Leonard not be ready to go in Houston, all right, 107 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: time for a quick time out here on the Daily Update. 108 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: Asked promise we're gonna leave time to hear from another linebacker, 109 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: Joe Joe Doman, the rookie who made the team as 110 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: an undrafted free agent out of Nebraska. He's a great 111 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: player and was exposed to life in the NFL at 112 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: an early age. His father is an NFL agent. We'll 113 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,720 Speaker 1: talk about that and more when we come back with 114 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: Joe Joe Doman here on the Colts Daily Update ninety 115 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: three five and one oh seven five the Fan. Welcome 116 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 1: back to the Colts Daily Update. A look at the 117 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 1: Colts with the voice of the Colts Matt Taylor. Thanks 118 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: for coming back here on the Colts Daily Update. It's 119 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 1: the Cults sand the Texans Sunday, the regular season opener. 120 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,919 Speaker 1: The Colts have won eight of the last ten meetings 121 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: with the Texans at NRG Stadium down in Houston, looking 122 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: to get off to a good start this season. Roster wise, 123 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 1: the Colts have ten rookies on the team going into 124 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,359 Speaker 1: the year, including three undrafted free agents. One of those 125 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: players is linebacker Joe Joe Dolman out of Nebraska. He 126 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: showed out well on special teams in on defense during 127 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: the chorus of the preseason, and he knows firsthand what 128 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: it takes to make an NFL roster. That's because his 129 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: dad has been an NFL agent for over three decades 130 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,599 Speaker 1: and has represented players from all different backgrounds, first rounders, 131 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: late rounders, undrafted guys. So Joejoe definitely had a unique 132 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 1: upbringing around the game of football, and we started off 133 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 1: talking about what it's like for him to be inside 134 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: an NFL locker room. I mean, it's just football. It's 135 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,880 Speaker 1: just it's grown man football, which is really exciting. I'm 136 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: excited for this challenge. I'm excited to help do my job, 137 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: to help my team win, and to just be a 138 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 1: part of this is ultimately just a blessing in and 139 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: of itself. So just taking in every moment, being present 140 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: for it and putting my best foot forward. You found 141 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:12,960 Speaker 1: out that you were you were going to make this team, 142 00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: You're on the roster. What emotions did you have? This 143 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: is what you put in on the work for, so 144 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: it felt very felt natural. It felt like this is 145 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: what I've been you know, working for, visualizing, manifesting for 146 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: more than just this offseason. So for it to come 147 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 1: into fruition is it was just really humbling, and it 148 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: was thankful. You know, the God is listening. You know, 149 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: whatever you put your mind to you can accomplish. And 150 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: this was just a testament to all those things. And 151 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: it's by no means how I arrived. But I definitely 152 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: think it's healthy to take a second and just acknowledge 153 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: where you are. Like you said, you still have a 154 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: long journey ahead of you and you still have much 155 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: to prove. But do you feel like to this point 156 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: you have proved some doubters wrong? You know, you proof 157 00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 1: some people going undrafted, right, I know you wanted to 158 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: get drafted, but here you are, You're on an NFL team. 159 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: Do you feel like you're playing with a little bit 160 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: of a chip on your shoulder. I always play with 161 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 1: hip with him on my shoulder. I'm just a competitive dude, 162 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 1: it ain't about everyone outside of the lines. Like I'm 163 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: competitive because I love to win, and it's I don't 164 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: play any harder or any any lesser anymore because outside 165 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: voices like I think that's what you know separates me 166 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 1: from potentially other people is I'm locked into this game, 167 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: and if you ain't affecting this game, you're not affecting me. 168 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: Where do you feel like you've grown the most as 169 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 1: a player from well, let's go back at the start 170 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: of training camp, from the start of camp in late 171 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: July until now, where do you think you've improved? Honestly, 172 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: just I mean everything you have to do, everything you 173 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: do has to be efficient mentally, physically, out on that 174 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: field and off the field. So I think I just 175 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: move with more efficiency. I mean, I mean optimizing every 176 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: second of every day. Because somebody's doing something somewhere to 177 00:08:58,080 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 1: get a leg up on you. What are you doing 178 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 1: to do this for them? You know what I mean? 179 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: So I would just say overall, I'm just I'm just 180 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,400 Speaker 1: optimizing everything that I do on and off the field, 181 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: just putting everything that I am towards my work. Has 182 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: the speed of the game. Has there been a notice 183 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 1: on your standpoint as far as that goes from playing 184 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 1: in the Big Ten to the NFL, was an a 185 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: noticeable difference. Yeah, yes, and no. I mean there's just 186 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,319 Speaker 1: no weak links out there. The threshold for weak links 187 00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: has absolutely been raised. So it's just like you got 188 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,680 Speaker 1: to be on your p's and ques every play or 189 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 1: else you're gonna be taking advantage of and special teams 190 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,680 Speaker 1: is no exception to that. So which is fun. Like, 191 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,560 Speaker 1: I mean, every single play I gotta go out there. 192 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 1: I get to go out there and play with my 193 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 1: hair on fire, knowing that, like my my manhood, my livelihood, 194 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: and my team are on the line here, which is 195 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 1: it's exhilarating. I know you kind of talked to a 196 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: little bit about this last week. But but your dad, 197 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,800 Speaker 1: your your father is an inf FL agent and you 198 00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: grew up with him being an NFL agent. How has 199 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: he helped you understand the business of football? Maybe more 200 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: so than an average you know, twenty one or twenty 201 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: two year old rookie. Would he just he always trained 202 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 1: my mind by asking the right questions and then allowed 203 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 1: me and gave me the space to figure out the answer. 204 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 1: Didn't didn't hand things to me, but absolutely ask those 205 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: deeper questions and made me think about, you know, the 206 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 1: bird's eye view of situations. You know, when a coach, 207 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 1: when when you're not feeling the love from a coach, 208 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,320 Speaker 1: it's like, you know, are you gonna play victim to that? 209 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: Are you gonna let that affect your performance? Or are 210 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: you going to realize that you know, he's a person, 211 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 1: he's dealing with two excuse my language, and that all 212 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: you can only control what you can control in every situation, 213 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 1: no matter what the circumstances. So I think just those uh, 214 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: those type of intangible things that he just trained my 215 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: mind to think in a different way. That allowed me 216 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 1: to push forward. That prepared me to push forward through 217 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: two ACLS in Nebraska. That prepared me to continue to 218 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 1: love the game and lead with my passion when we 219 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: were having losing seasons at Nebraska. That prepared me to 220 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: come in and make the fifty three man roster after 221 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 1: going undrafted. I mean, you got to see some pretty 222 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: cool things for a young guy with your dad and 223 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: being an NFL age, I mean, right, going to training 224 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: camps and practices and games and maybe Super Bowls. I 225 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 1: mean that's how much did that fuel your flame to 226 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 1: ultimately get where where you're at right now. They all 227 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: those experiences planted seeds in my mind and in my 228 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: heart that like, you know, if you can you know, 229 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: if you can be anything you want to be when 230 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: you grow up, like I want to do this, and 231 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 1: just seeing it firsthand, kind of taking like the like 232 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: the veil was torn early on in my life on 233 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 1: like these guys aren't superheroes, the regular people that do 234 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:02,520 Speaker 1: ordinary things extraordinary and it just made it made this 235 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: feel tangible. So even when I was going, I was 236 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: in these valleys right, these different valleys throughout my career, 237 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,040 Speaker 1: I just knew that all all all I can do 238 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,400 Speaker 1: is take it day by day, you know, one workout 239 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: at a time, one rehab at a time, and that 240 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: things will work out in your favor one way or another. 241 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: That's I mean, it's it's it's really, I swear it's simple. 242 00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:32,719 Speaker 1: It really is simple. It just be where your feet are, 243 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 1: be present. You know, the past already happened. The future 244 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 1: well like you can only ever be in the present. 245 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:45,040 Speaker 1: Last one, How excited are you for that experience running 246 00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: out on an NFL game field.
