1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: What's it been like? Uh, I guess the whole season 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 1: has been a season of adjustments and changes to coaches 3 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:10,479 Speaker 1: and things like that. What's the last twelve hours been 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 1: been like? Free for your group? Um? Obviously a big surprise. 5 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,960 Speaker 1: Obviously we wish goods you know, to get healthy quick 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: and that you know, it doesn't affect him much. Um. 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 1: But obviously this team we've been you know, prepared. It's 8 00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:25,760 Speaker 1: been a crazy year with COVID, and we knew anything 9 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: could happen at any time. And I think we have 10 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: a resilient group here and we're ready to just keep 11 00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: moving and getting better and getting ready for Sunday. I 12 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 1: know Ben wasn't was with you guys today. We're working 13 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: with Freddy or somebody else. Um. We've had a bunch 14 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,760 Speaker 1: of guys rolling through right now. So UM, whoever the 15 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: you know, judge the size to uh, you know, stick 16 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 1: out there with us, you know, and we know it's 17 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 1: gonna be good. We know the coaches here are very 18 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: well versed in protections no matter what they're officially coached, 19 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 1: So anyone can come in and help with work with us. Leave. 20 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 1: What's up, Kevin? Thanks for doing this? Um? What Kevin 21 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: how much do you work on a normal week with uh, 22 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 1: with Freddie or Jerry or any of those other coaches. 23 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: How much input do they actually have when your actual 24 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: offensive line coaches around. Um, I think what a cool 25 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 1: thing here is kind of like I was trying to mention, 26 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: you know, all the coaches really do work together. We 27 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: get together a lot here. There's a lot of back 28 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: and forth about different ideas and things. The players are 29 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,680 Speaker 1: together and so everyone does have a very good understanding 30 00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: of like you know, a line here. So, um, we 31 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 1: do get to work with everyone throughout the week. How 32 00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: much in a game is just on the players? Like 33 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: you're a veteran guy, like, do you almost have to 34 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 1: be like a coach on the field then if if, 35 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: especially if Ben's not around, I mean absolutely. You know, 36 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: as the players are the ones out there, we have 37 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: to figure it out on the fly. You know, you 38 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: can come off and the coaches can help you, but 39 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: when you're out there, you know, players have to be 40 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: able to figure it out on the fly, say Kevin Um. 41 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: Joe Judge mentioned earlier that during walkthrough they kind of 42 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: had an iPad up and and Googe was kind of 43 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: like coaching you guys from the iPad or was watching? 44 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: Like could you hear him back there? Like? Was he 45 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: was he like giving you coaching points from the iPad? 46 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: Of course? Well what was that? Like? I mean that's 47 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 1: probably a nutshell, right, I mean exactly. You know, it's 48 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 1: just how you move forward, how you deal with the 49 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 1: challenges and you know, Okay, after this year, we're not 50 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: gonna be uh, we're gonna be used to everything. So yeah, 51 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: and separate from that, I mean, how do you feel 52 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: like the offensive line has has played the last few weeks? 53 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: And I know there's a stretched during the winning tree, 54 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: especially you guys are playing your best football, But how 55 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 1: do you feel like you guys have played last three Um? 56 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,760 Speaker 1: I think we're a resilient group. Obviously we've had some challenges, 57 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: but you know, nothing has left, you know, like this building, 58 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: like everyone is in a great everyone's trying to get better. 59 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: You know, we want to finish this out right, and 60 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,839 Speaker 1: you know, we're just working to get better every day. 61 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,079 Speaker 1: And you know, I love the group of guys and 62 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: we're doing what we need to do. We'll take two 63 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: more tomaun Hey, Kevin, So, like, what does your position 64 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: coach actually do one game that I know, it's kind 65 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 1: of an obvious question. We see you come over the 66 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: sideline and haul up between series, but you know what 67 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: would you be missing without without goods there? Oh you 68 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,960 Speaker 1: know what I mean? I mean you come to the sideline, 69 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,200 Speaker 1: they tell you what you did wrong or they fix it. 70 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: You know. Um, you know, obviously it sucks. You know, 71 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: he's the guy in charge, he has the full thing 72 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: and whatnot. But like I've been saying, you know, whoever 73 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 1: is out there helping us this Sunday, you know we're 74 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: gonna be able to work with them.

How would you describe 79 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: the arc of this offensive line? Obviously Week one was 80 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: was a struggle and to where you are now? How 81 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: how is this season gone? Um? I think given everything 82 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: you know, it goes like with a normal line for 83 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: like a normal line development for a season. I had 84 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: a lot of young guys to start, came to work 85 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: every day. We start how it started, and we kept 86 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: getting better every week and you know we're definitely better 87 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 1: than where we start, and we just want to keep 88 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: you know, that continuing trend going. Offensive linemen are sort 89 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 1: of uh notorious for having off the field gatherings, dinners 90 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: and things like that. You weren't able to do any 91 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: of any of those things this year. Did that? Did 92 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: that hurt? Did that slow down the camaraderie? Um? I 93 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 1: mean it's unfortunate, you know, looking back over my past 94 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: couple of seasons, you know, being able to get together 95 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,480 Speaker 1: in the off season or for dinners, you know, that's 96 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: some of the most memorable times of your NFL career. 97 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: But obviously this year, you know, a line was diligent. 98 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 1: We don't want to you know, we want to follow rules. 99 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: We always wanted to be available, you know for the 100 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: teams here, so we had to put it to the side. 101 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: And you know, God willing, you know, next year, when 102 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,520 Speaker 1: we get to ots, we can do that stuff, you 103 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: know again
