WEBVTT - A Conversation with Jets Pro Bowl CB Sauce Gardner (12/27) 0:00:00.280 --> 0:00:07.440 Uh Well was the official Jets podcast. We were presented 0:00:07.480 --> 0:00:09.760 by Winn Bett. Betty is a team sport but together 0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:13.720 at win Back. Coming up, we'll be joined by bar Scott. 0:00:13.800 --> 0:00:17.040 But first we're gonna start off with a mod Sauce 0:00:17.280 --> 0:00:20.680 the Gardener. What has it been like your rookie year 0:00:21.280 --> 0:00:24.959 fifteen games in now? Uh? Man, it's been great. I 0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:27.760 mean everything that I prayed for, everything that I thought 0:00:27.800 --> 0:00:31.000 it would be. You know, I can't really complain, you know, 0:00:31.120 --> 0:00:33.479 being able to just go out there on each and 0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:35.920 every Sunday and go against the best man. So this 0:00:36.000 --> 0:00:38.400 is true Blessing. How did you find out about the 0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:43.600 Pro Bowl invite? Um? Who was the first person with 0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:48.600 Ald you? Uh? I want to say when our media people? 0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:50.879 Oh really yeah, but it was like the day it 0:00:50.920 --> 0:00:53.199 was the day of type thing, like right, it was 0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.279 right before you know what I mean, so all right 0:00:56.320 --> 0:00:59.520 now he might be he might just be playing, you know, 0:00:59.600 --> 0:01:02.680 so I had to watching on TV and I've seen 0:01:02.720 --> 0:01:04.319 it like it was. That was great because that was 0:01:04.360 --> 0:01:07.640 one of my individual accolades, you know, to the three 0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:10.800 that I have, that's one though. So that was a 0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:12.880 great start, man, that was a true blessed. What did 0:01:12.920 --> 0:01:16.039 it mean to you even though you knew you had 0:01:16.080 --> 0:01:18.440 the invite in your pocket when you were watching the 0:01:18.480 --> 0:01:22.199 show and they actually announced your name and it was great. Man, 0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:25.120 it meant a lot. But I've seen when it was 0:01:25.160 --> 0:01:27.520 introducing the the guys, I was trying to see like 0:01:27.520 --> 0:01:29.480 if I was gonna be a starter or what it 0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:32.160 was gonna be, you know. So I remember texting. I 0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:35.440 text Jared, I'm like my pro boled starter and like, 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:37.600 I know the DBS just coming up, and he took 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:40.240 too long to text me. So I'm like, oh man, 0:01:40.240 --> 0:01:42.480 they gotta hurry up. So now I've seen I was 0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:45.680 a starter. I'm like, man, that's real cool. Man. Sure 0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:50.000 you were a great college player, never gave up a 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:56.640 touchdown in your college career, And what did you anticipate 0:01:56.720 --> 0:01:59.520 as far as the transition is concerned, because right now, 0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:02.960 after team games, you leave the National Football League in 0:02:03.080 --> 0:02:06.000 p d s and now you're starting to get treatment 0:02:06.120 --> 0:02:09.040 like we saw we saw from a guy who was 0:02:09.400 --> 0:02:12.680 a great player here in years past, ral Rievers teams 0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:17.000 aren't throwing your way too often. Man, it means a lot. 0:02:17.680 --> 0:02:18.800 You know what I'm you know what I mean to 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:21.600 be able to just do what I do as a rookie. 0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:24.360 But now I gotta just keep staying humble, you know, 0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:27.200 because at the moment I get too lax, too complace, 0:02:27.280 --> 0:02:29.120 and that's when you know team's gonna go at me. 0:02:29.160 --> 0:02:31.760 But you know, coming in, I definitely expected to be 0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:34.920 targeted a lot. You know, I expected for everybody to 0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:37.000 go to go at me each and every week because 0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:39.360 I'm a rookie, you know what I mean. But you 0:02:39.360 --> 0:02:42.040 know some games that I haven't, I didn't really get tried, 0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:44.160 you know, but I didn't know who was gonna be 0:02:44.200 --> 0:02:46.680 like that. But now that's your a great sign of respect. 0:02:46.800 --> 0:02:48.960 You know. For me, it's kind of a double edged sword, 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:51.440 right because after the Troy game, you're saying, man, I 0:02:51.520 --> 0:02:54.240 was frustrated because nobody's even thrown my way, But that's 0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:57.440 such a sign of respect. If they're not gonna target 0:02:57.520 --> 0:03:00.720 your side, definitely, uh, it go hand. And I just 0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:04.240 wanted that to be my best game, you know, the season, 0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:07.280 because it was Detroit. It was my hometown, so you know, 0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:09.560 I wanted I wanted to, you know, make a lot 0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:12.040 of plays. But you know, I wasn't really just mad, 0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:14.519 but I was like Nan that was supposed to be 0:03:14.560 --> 0:03:17.160 the game for sure. What was it like for you 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:20.280 to go home over Christmas weekend and spend some time 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:25.320 with your family and also what kind of reaction do 0:03:25.400 --> 0:03:29.560 you get from people going back home? Oh? Man, my 0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:31.840 city loves me. Man, you know, growing up on the 0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:35.640 East side of Detroit, you know, they always loved me. No, 0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:39.800 I can truly say my family probably had the best 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.520 Christmas ever. You know, I just gotta get thanks to 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:46.160 the NFL, to the Jets in the game of football, 0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:49.320 because I honored so much and the things that my 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.920 family wanted, the kids. You know, I was able to 0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:55.560 make that happen. So you know that was great and 0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:59.960 truly blessed for that. Your mom sees, um, she means 0:04:00.000 --> 0:04:04.160 so much too. What did you get hurt for this Christmas? 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:08.640 Your first one in the National Football Lake. I just 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:12.120 got a mink coat. You know, I heard my grandma. 0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:15.440 They always wanted, you know, a mink coat. You know, 0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:17.200 when I was growing up, they always like, yeah, I'm 0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:20.400 gonna get a mink coat. This is this and that. 0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:22.839 That was it real. You know, she she has pretty 0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:25.160 much everything, you know, so it's not really too much 0:04:25.200 --> 0:04:27.560 that I can get her. You know, she living, she 0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:30.640 living a dream for sure. How much did you carry 0:04:30.720 --> 0:04:34.000 Detroit with you on the field. I carry Detroit a 0:04:34.080 --> 0:04:36.520 lot with me, you know. Growing up, I never lived 0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:39.320 nowhere outside of Detroit. Like, for as long as I 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:41.640 was in Detroit, I always lived on the East side 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:45.800 of Detroit. I always lived in like the toughest areas 0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:49.120 I grew up. It's the places called seven Mile on 0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:52.120 the east Side. No, there was a tough area, a 0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:55.680 lot of violence going on. But you know, like I said, 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:57.720 that's why my mom is my road model, She's my 0:04:57.760 --> 0:05:01.520 superhero because no matter all that violence that was going on, 0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:04.800 my mom was strict, strict about it. She wanted me to, 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:07.680 you know, take a different route, take it to be 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:09.520 on a different path, you know what I mean. So, 0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:12.159 like I was one of them people who always wanted 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:15.719 to be different. No, my mom is to tell me, like, yeah, 0:05:15.760 --> 0:05:17.680 your friends they do this, they do that. What are 0:05:17.720 --> 0:05:19.320 you going to do to be different? If you want 0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:21.760 to go where you want to go? You know. So 0:05:21.839 --> 0:05:25.080 I remember I could only control what I could control. 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:27.840 So I said, I was never gonna smoke or drink, 0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:34.640 and I never did. I still never have, you know. Uh. Now, 0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:36.839 I prod myself and stuff like that, because I remember, 0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:40.280 like in college, he's trying to prepress me, not prepresson, 0:05:40.240 --> 0:05:42.960 and he's like, man, just just just drink, you know 0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:45.120 what I mean. But you know, I'm a man of 0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:47.560 my word. And uh no, That's why I appreciate my 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:50.520 mom so much because she was able to help guide me, 0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:53.480 you know, on on the on the right path. So 0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:57.400 you're so determined and you're seeing that success right now 0:05:57.400 --> 0:06:00.400 in the National Football League or one thing that I 0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:05.320 talked to Bart about is that mentality when you do 0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:09.240 come from Detroit, as far as talking and how much 0:06:09.320 --> 0:06:12.560 that's part of your game. Can can you talk about 0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:17.360 how early you get the gift to gab, you know, 0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:20.880 as far as getting after people in in between those 0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:25.080 white lines. Um, I mean, if you're gonna be confident, 0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:27.760 you gotta just be confident. You can't, like I hate 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:29.880 those types of people would be quiet the whole time 0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:31.960 and then they do something and then they get to talking. 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:34.760 So if you're gonna talk, man, you gotta you gotta 0:06:34.800 --> 0:06:36.920 start and finish with it, but you gotta back it 0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:39.840 up at the same time. So that's something that like 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:42.000 I'm not gonna say it's just a Detroit thing. But 0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:44.479 you know in Detroit, you you gotta have it with 0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:46.760 you where you it's gonna be hard to survivee you know, 0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:51.360 in the football field. Uh so, Yeah, who has been 0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:54.640 the toughest guy for you to face this year? Yeah? 0:06:54.760 --> 0:07:00.120 Because you've you've seen really good receivers Justin Jefferson, jama Are, 0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:04.920 Chase Digs twice, Tyreek kill. I mean the list goes 0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:08.560 out and I don't know. Man. I said the same 0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:11.560 thing in college at first, but I really don't know now, 0:07:12.120 --> 0:07:14.000 Like you said, I didn't. I feel like I've win 0:07:14.040 --> 0:07:17.080 against besides Davonte Adams, who I think it's like a 0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:21.600 great receiver. I didn't win against pretty much every elite 0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.080 receiver in the league. But I feel like one receiver 0:07:24.160 --> 0:07:27.000 that goes on the radars Mary Cooper. Like a lot 0:07:27.000 --> 0:07:29.400 of people they say jess and Jefferson, which is y'all right, 0:07:29.840 --> 0:07:34.040 Jessin Jefferson, Tyreek kill. Uh Mary Cooper. I think Mary 0:07:34.080 --> 0:07:36.320 Cooper like he liked that when the come of running routes, 0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:40.840 No Diggs, Gay Davis and one one one person who 0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:43.560 I think don't get mentioned too much. It's Tee Higgins, 0:07:44.040 --> 0:07:46.720 you know, because of Jamar Chase but see Higgins, he 0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:49.480 liked that, and I think he just uh got a 0:07:49.520 --> 0:07:52.760 thousand and receiving yards or something like that. Again, he 0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:54.960 liked that for sure. But I think I went against 0:07:55.080 --> 0:08:00.240 pretty much every elite receiver. He definitely did what some 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:03.000 of those guys say to you after those performances, the 0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:05.280 guys seek you out after the field, after you guys 0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:08.240 compete throughout the gamers, that kind of like, hey, after 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:12.760 that whistle blows, y'all go your separate ways. Nah, I 0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:15.640 mean a lot of them would come come up to me. 0:08:16.200 --> 0:08:19.080 I'm personally not a guy that just goes looking for receivers, 0:08:19.840 --> 0:08:21.720 you know, but you know, a lot of them got 0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:25.760 respect for me. Diggs, he was a little upset the 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:28.360 last time we played. I don't know the reason, and 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:32.720 but he he walked away like as soon as the 0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:34.760 game was over with, so we didn't get to really 0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:37.400 chop it up. But like before the game, we chopped 0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:39.760 it up. No, we already knew he was gonna go 0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:42.880 at it. But yeah, but a lot of those guys 0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:46.839 they respect me. I remember Chase, Uh, we chopped it 0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:49.120 up out of the game. We just laughing, joking, but 0:08:49.200 --> 0:08:51.840 like between the white lines, we just was going at it. 0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:54.960 You know, we just talking. He broughtly the first like 0:08:55.000 --> 0:08:57.560 elite receiver when I was like going at it with 0:08:57.720 --> 0:08:59.880 like as far as like we both were talking back 0:09:00.080 --> 0:09:02.760 for because I didn't know he was gonna be, you know, 0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:05.800 talking to you know where he was, but we was 0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:08.720 going at it for sure. You guys, the New York 0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:11.959 has had four players going to the Pro Bowl. Shouldn't 0:09:11.960 --> 0:09:14.960 be at least five. I'm talking about your guy, d J. Man. 0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:19.120 I was just by to say that, like it hurt me, 0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:21.960 you know as much as like that was one of 0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:24.760 my individual goals. If I could, I would want him 0:09:24.800 --> 0:09:27.000 to go. You know, he'd been in the league longer 0:09:27.040 --> 0:09:30.400 than me, man, and he uh the way he approached 0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:33.120 the game, the mentality that he has, the players that 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:35.760 he makes weekend and week out. I would get my 0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:38.480 Pro Bowl up for him, you know. Man. He just 0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:40.560 worked so hard and I just been able to just 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:44.280 watch a guy like him bust his tail every week, 0:09:45.080 --> 0:09:47.360 no matter if his body a little sword from the 0:09:47.440 --> 0:09:50.000 last game, just just and that when we get back 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:52.920 in the building, he back to it. And I feel 0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:55.679 like he was the biggest Pro Bowl with the snub 0:09:56.880 --> 0:10:00.600 that was him like he's the definition of that. Man U. Man, 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:03.400 it hurt me, you know, saying like he was like 0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:05.640 an arsenate or it hurt me, man, because I know, 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:08.000 I know he liked that. What do you think this 0:10:08.040 --> 0:10:11.600 week is gonna be like for him? Going back to Seattle, 0:10:11.960 --> 0:10:14.599 a Seahawks team that he played with and experienced his 0:10:14.720 --> 0:10:19.240 career breakthrough. It's gonna be personal, you know, I think 0:10:19.320 --> 0:10:22.880 they let him go or whatever. Um So I think 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:24.640 it's gonna be personal because I know if it was me, 0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:26.120 it's gonna be personal. And I know the type of 0:10:26.120 --> 0:10:29.120 guy that he is, so he gonna he gonna be 0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:31.600 up to the challenge. He gonna want to compete, you know, 0:10:31.679 --> 0:10:35.560 like he always do. You're a big dude, but he's 0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:38.960 not the biggest guy. But he's got a lot of 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:42.800 fight in him. How much do you appreciate the way 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.040 he attacks on the outside and why is he able 0:10:45.080 --> 0:10:47.599 to win on the outside, because most guys, you know this, 0:10:48.240 --> 0:10:50.320 if they have his body type, they're just throwing him 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:54.360 in the slot. Man, he first, he is strong guy. 0:10:55.760 --> 0:11:00.440 When he's strong too, he got good forward three. He 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:03.320 gotta he know what's coming because he studied a lot 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:05.640 of family for it. Man, he got hurt. He got 0:11:05.640 --> 0:11:08.120 that dog in him, you know, that's what it really takes. 0:11:08.120 --> 0:11:11.880 He confident and he got the mentality like I was 0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:14.679 bombed this one. He gave up a pass, he gave 0:11:14.760 --> 0:11:17.920 up a catch. It was no no explosive catch, but 0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:21.079 my man ran like a crosser. His man caught the ball. 0:11:21.080 --> 0:11:24.360 He's talking and he like, do that again? You know 0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:27.720 what I mean. I'm like, I'm thinking, like, man, he 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:29.800 really got that dog in him, you know, to be 0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:31.560 able to just say that, because when I give up kids, 0:11:31.559 --> 0:11:33.640 I'm thinking, like, all right, I can't let that happen again. 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:36.680 But he was like do that again, So like not 0:11:36.800 --> 0:11:39.400 as my mentality, right, but I got it from him, 0:11:39.600 --> 0:11:41.280 you know what I mean. There's like a whole bunch 0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:43.559 of stuff that I could not can learn from DJ Man. 0:11:43.600 --> 0:11:47.199 That's why George's being around him in the building, the 0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:49.360 outside of the building, being able to learned from. What 0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:51.040 do you think about the fans and the way they've 0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:55.400 gravitated towards you here and they welcomed me with open arms. No, 0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:58.600 I can't complain, you know, being in a place like 0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:01.240 New York, I knew it was gonna be a lot 0:12:01.280 --> 0:12:03.599 of pressure, you know, me having a name sauce, I 0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:06.000 knew I was gonna have a lot of opportunities, but 0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:07.640 I also knew it was gonna be a lot of pressure. 0:12:08.280 --> 0:12:10.640 But like you know, I gotta just stay where my 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:13.480 feet are, you know, stay level headed, you know, keep 0:12:13.520 --> 0:12:15.600 the main thing, the main thing. But I truly appreciate, 0:12:16.080 --> 0:12:18.920 you know, the fans to support me, my teammates, you know, 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:21.000 just being there for us, cheering us on the whole way. 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:24.520 You said at the top three individual goals, one of 0:12:24.559 --> 0:12:28.000 them check that box. What are the other two? Can 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:37.000 you say? Man? All right? So pro bo Rookie of 0:12:37.040 --> 0:12:40.560 the Year, Defensive Rookie of the Year, and are pro 0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:46.920 I remember getting asked about what my goals were, and 0:12:46.960 --> 0:12:49.520 I didn't even know like how big each and everyone 0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:51.559 them was. I knew like defensive rookie year because like 0:12:51.600 --> 0:12:53.960 I'm a rookie, but I was his name and stuff 0:12:55.320 --> 0:12:57.400 because I remember I used to just be like watching 0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:01.240 Jen Rams and He's like, man, I'm this, I'm he 0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:04.400 liked that. So I just said I wanted defensive rookie 0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:06.560 here or pro and pro bo. I knew the probo 0:13:06.679 --> 0:13:09.000 was because the game would come on but when I 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:11.520 really said and just thought about him, like, bro, that's big, 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:16.200 like Pro Bowl, Oh pro everybody can't make that, So 0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:19.040 like show, what do you think about? What do you 0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:22.800 think about the matchup this week? Ye Wolling on the 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:25.760 other side. And then he got Kobe Bryant, who you 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:29.199 played with your team with the Cincinnati and it was 0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:32.040 two great players, two great players. Willing I think he 0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:35.079 got like he got six interceptions. You know, he's been 0:13:35.120 --> 0:13:37.360 doing this thing. Uh, I've been sitting on social media. 0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:40.800 They wanted us to go at it. I had made 0:13:40.800 --> 0:13:42.719 a tweet. It was like I didn't want to say 0:13:42.760 --> 0:13:46.640 his name. But with the pro bo situation, but you know, 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:50.199 you're a great player. I feel like the fans Seahawks 0:13:50.240 --> 0:13:53.600 fans be trying to make it something it's not. And uh, Kobe, 0:13:53.880 --> 0:13:57.079 that's my dog. You know, we locked in forever. No, Um, 0:13:57.360 --> 0:13:59.960 I don't really be doing jersey swaps, but I feel 0:14:00.200 --> 0:14:02.480 that's gonna be. He's gonna be somebody out do with jersey. 0:14:03.360 --> 0:14:07.000 That's gonna that's gonna happen every week. And another great receivers. 0:14:07.120 --> 0:14:09.600 You could see two this week if the Lockett's back 0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:13.880 in the lineup. But have you thought about potentially lining 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:17.319 up a few times against DK mcalf Oh, yeah, definitely. 0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:21.480 Man here, great fiscal receiver. You know, his body type 0:14:21.520 --> 0:14:23.760 is kind of like different. You know, he ain't the 0:14:23.800 --> 0:14:27.560 ever sized receiver. No, no, I'm looking forward to it. 0:14:27.800 --> 0:14:30.560 I've been watching take You make a lot of play. 0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:34.080 You know, you're very strong, speed, you got speed, runger routes. 0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:37.160 I'm looking forward to it though. How cool is this 0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:40.520 that you guys still have a possibility here. I mean, 0:14:40.600 --> 0:14:42.800 you've lost four in a row. Nobody's happy about that, 0:14:42.840 --> 0:14:45.240 but there are two games remaining. You win those two 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:49.320 games and the Patriots lose or taie one, the Jets 0:14:49.320 --> 0:14:52.160 are in the playoffs. And saw his Gardner's rookie season 0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:58.800 and that's big. Um Cosalo always talked to us about, like, 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.680 like I said, men were you are, you know, taking 0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:03.320 them one day at a time, one week at a time. 0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:08.160 So that's all I can really do. You know, the defense, 0:15:08.240 --> 0:15:11.280 we just keep chopping wood every day, man, trying to 0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:14.520 get better and better watching the film. You know, like 0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:16.160 I said, taking them one week at a time. We're 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.640 trying not to get to ahead of ourselves. Amazon Prime 0:15:18.720 --> 0:15:21.840 had the game last week. Judge Jack Wars. Richard Sherman's 0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:24.320 part of that broadcast team. Do you have an opportunity 0:15:24.320 --> 0:15:25.920 to chop it up with him at all? Yeah, we 0:15:26.000 --> 0:15:28.040 definitely chopped it up. Man. We're just talking a little 0:15:28.080 --> 0:15:31.040 bit of ball before the game, joking a little bit. 0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:33.120 You know, you're you're a funny guy. But at the 0:15:33.120 --> 0:15:35.880 same time, he was a great player when he was playing. 0:15:36.480 --> 0:15:39.800 You know, I'll still be watching this tape my coach 0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:42.920 right now because older I believe he coach Sharon for 0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:46.880 like a year, so he'd be sending me tape a sharm, 0:15:46.920 --> 0:15:48.880 you know, some good things to do in the run, game, 0:15:48.960 --> 0:15:51.840 pass game, hot point the ball, doing a lot of things. 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:53.960 So now I still definitely watch him. What do you 0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:58.440 like about SHRM's film, Man, He just he knew it 0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:01.040 was coming before before man, you know what I mean? 0:16:01.080 --> 0:16:03.880 That was one thing I've seen, like, especially if he 0:16:03.920 --> 0:16:07.440 was playing off coverage by certain splits, he knew where 0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:10.320 I was coming. He knew about to anticipate, you know, 0:16:11.600 --> 0:16:14.400 about the dn D. He knew what concepts to expect, 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:18.040 you know. So those was the main things I was like, Damn, 0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:20.280 how do you know that coach? Like? Man, he was 0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:22.680 just he made love. He told me he made love 0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:25.720 to the family. So, uh, you know, I probed myself 0:16:25.720 --> 0:16:30.160 and doing the same thing. That's cool about the ral Rievers. 0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:33.760 He's said, se my finals for the Pro Football Hall 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:37.600 of Fame and he spent time with you guys this year. 0:16:37.680 --> 0:16:41.160 What was it like? The interaction was reef man. It 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:44.640 was crazy man, right. He was a guy used to 0:16:44.640 --> 0:16:46.520 go on YouTube type his name in and see him 0:16:46.800 --> 0:16:50.200 shooting guys down. Before I even started playing corner, Like 0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:53.920 there's an always playing receivers. I used to see, like, Hey, 0:16:53.960 --> 0:16:56.000 what am I going to expect when I get to 0:16:56.000 --> 0:16:57.920 in the NFL because I thought I was gonna be 0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:00.360 a receiver. But I always had the mental I was 0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:03.080 gonna go to the league. I was thought was saying, Yeah, 0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:05.120 he's strong, but he ain't gonna be able to guard me. 0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:07.560 You know what I mean. Well, he was a great, 0:17:07.640 --> 0:17:12.720 great guy, extremely humble. Like I said, he him and 0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:15.800 him and Sharon had that similarity. You know, they watched 0:17:15.800 --> 0:17:18.760 a lot of tape and they knew it was coming. Like, um, 0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:20.919 I forgot who it was, but it was it was 0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:23.240 a coach for the Jaguars or a guy that worked 0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:26.119 for the Jaguars, and I guess he coached Sherman. He 0:17:26.160 --> 0:17:31.080 told me like Sharm knew everything that was coming before 0:17:31.080 --> 0:17:33.760 it him happened, like even to walk through, if one 0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:35.919 of the Scott receivers wouldn't at the right split and 0:17:36.000 --> 0:17:38.520 ran a certain route, he was stopping and tell him 0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:40.639 to get where they gotta be, you know, because he 0:17:40.680 --> 0:17:42.880 wanted to get the look. He was saying, like even 0:17:42.880 --> 0:17:45.240 to walk through, he wasn't allowing them to catch no passes, 0:17:45.280 --> 0:17:47.040 So you know he took He took a lot of 0:17:47.040 --> 0:17:48.800 pride in that, but it was it was great to 0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:50.200 be able to spend a lot of time with him 0:17:50.240 --> 0:17:53.840 man and just watch what he did. Hey making that 0:17:53.880 --> 0:17:56.679 transition to the pros. Obviously you still play a lot 0:17:56.760 --> 0:18:00.600 of man, but you probably have played more zone this 0:18:00.760 --> 0:18:03.400 year then since he asked you to do last year. 0:18:04.560 --> 0:18:07.359 How have you been able to just really well? But 0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:09.840 it's that because I think probably a doubter would come 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:12.760 out and say, yeah, Gardeners, really good man proceeded. Is 0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:15.480 he gonna thrive in those zone situations? And you've shown 0:18:15.480 --> 0:18:19.760 the ability to do that. You're natural and both um 0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:22.440 I had to get thanks to my coach course owner. 0:18:23.160 --> 0:18:25.600 You know him just being able to help teach me 0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:28.880 how to play certain techniques, help teach me the scheme here. 0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:31.399 You know. That's the main reason, because like in the 0:18:31.440 --> 0:18:34.560 All season, I could have went anywhere else and worked 0:18:34.560 --> 0:18:37.560 on some man off Man and some prison man. But 0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:40.040 I stayed here and was getting worked you know, So 0:18:40.119 --> 0:18:42.040 that way I could adapt to the scheme, and that's 0:18:42.040 --> 0:18:44.280 why I'm able to do it at high level. Favorite 0:18:44.359 --> 0:18:47.640 video game right now. I gotta say, call the Duty 0:18:47.720 --> 0:18:52.520 wors on top five characters, Call of Duty All Time characters. 0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:57.520 I don't know what you mean by characters. Um as 0:18:57.560 --> 0:19:00.600 far as Call of Duty, who would you want to be? 0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:04.879 I mean like the operators that you can play with. Okay, 0:19:05.400 --> 0:19:10.040 so Snoop Dogg was in there. I don't know too 0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:15.240 many operators, but you got you got Snoop Dogg. He 0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:16.879 was cool. He had I think he had like a 0:19:16.960 --> 0:19:20.400 leather jacket on a little top hat on his head. 0:19:20.640 --> 0:19:24.120 It was nice. It was nice for sure. Uh. It's 0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:27.640 a skin called a road skin, so like it's like 0:19:28.760 --> 0:19:30.879 all black so you can't really see. You can have 0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:33.840 in the corners if you have to. Uh, I like 0:19:33.920 --> 0:19:40.159 the ghost skin. Uh. I don't know too many other ones. Okay, 0:19:40.400 --> 0:19:43.439 I don't know too many others, but we're going home 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:47.320 and play tonight. Oh yeah, definitely hop on there tonight.
