1
00:00:01,760 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 1: Good. How you doing good camps during the last hour

2
00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: and said it's clear that you're the number one quarterback

3
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: that you just uh yeah, I mean obviously that's the

4
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: ultimate goal. Uh.

5
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:22,120
Speaker 2: And you know, obviously don't take things like that lightly.

6
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 2: But uh, you know, I I understand this league, you know,

7
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 2: and I understand how every day is a challenge. Every

8
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 2: day is uh competition, and I'm out look forward to

9
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 2: that and I feed off that and looking to go

10
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:34,279
Speaker 2: out there and prove it every day.

11
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: What's it been like you're back?

12
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,920
Speaker 2: I know we're talking about but obviously when you're the

13
00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 2: first year show you're the third coming.

14
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: Now you're the research che what's the number? Uh?

15
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,640
Speaker 2: I think the the the mindset and the standard is

16
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 2: the same, you know. When I when when I was

17
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:57,280
Speaker 2: here my rookie year, it was the same same thing,

18
00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 2: trying to go out there and show why I deserve

19
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 2: to be a starter, whether that I was here any

20
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:04,320
Speaker 2: somewhere else. But obviously with Tom being here, but uh,

21
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 2: and I don't think that changes this year. You know,

22
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 2: It's it's I'm still coming out here. I feel like

23
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:10,800
Speaker 2: I got more rookie all over again, you know, and

24
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 2: going out there and having to prove myself and and uh,

25
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 2: you know, I'll look forward to that and I'm excited

26
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 2: for that advice.

27
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,560
Speaker 1: What do you get for having given the train just

28
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,440
Speaker 1: approaching his first training camps? Or what's a don't get

29
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: out of this experience?

30
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,760
Speaker 2: Uh, it's it's it's competition. It's at work now, you know.

31
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 2: You know, it's no scholarships anymore. It's it's it's it's

32
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: your job. And you know that's what makes it so fun.

33
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 2: You know, it's you go get to go out there

34
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 2: and compete every day and you understand, like you know

35
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 2: that somebody else is trying to take your job, you know.

36
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,800
Speaker 2: And and you know I learned that my rookie year,

37
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 2: you know, with the guys that I had in my room.

38
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 2: So it's definitely something that I've carried throughout my career

39
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: so far. And you know that doesn't change what.

40
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 1: Did you do over this last five minutes or something?

41
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 2: Got away from football? Just hung out really at the

42
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: house and play some golf, hung out with some friends.

43
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 2: And that was pretty much. It terrible the more I

44
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 2: played it, but worse I get. So not good today

45
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 2: it was exciting, Uh, you know everybody Uh, good spirits

46
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 2: everybody's ready to go, uh, you know, catching up with

47
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 2: a lot of the guys that you you know, obviously

48
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 2: don't talk to as much uh during the off season,

49
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 2: but uh, you know, everybody was excited to be back,

50
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 2: uh and ready to get a sting on the road Koba.

51
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: Some videos and you guys working out together before. Yeah,

52
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 1: what kind of value you know those workers happen the season.

53
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: I thought it was great, uh, you know, not only

54
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 2: just from the football aspect, but also just being around

55
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 2: the guys you know, and and uh, you know, and

56
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 2: getting getting being able to hang out with each other,

57
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 2: you know, outside of you know, Boston and Foxboro and

58
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,119
Speaker 2: and away from the facility, and you know, I thought

59
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,799
Speaker 2: it was fun. You know, we had a great time.

60
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 2: A lot of guys came and showed up and and uh,

61
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,120
Speaker 2: you know, it was fun. But obviously the on the

62
00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 2: field things, you know, just you know, getting everybody back

63
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 2: into the swing of like, hey, this is what this is,

64
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,120
Speaker 2: what we call, this is how we expecting this and uh,

65
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 2: just some of our basic fundamentals of our offense we

66
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 2: help to end and what you be with your communicating

67
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 2: with your receivers about just the details of certain place.

68
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 1: How comfortable are you communicating those types of things guys?

69
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,720
Speaker 1: A lot of young guys. Guy. Yeah, so how much

70
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: leadership or do you feel like you have to take

71
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: charge of that group to make sure they're doing everything?

72
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, I think that comes with the position, you know,

73
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 2: us being able to you know, take command of of

74
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 2: you know, the offense and in all of the details,

75
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 2: not only for myself, but for the receivers, the running

76
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: back tight ends and and so forth. And you know,

77
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 2: I think that's you know, part of the job is

78
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: demanding that not only from yourself but from the other guys.

79
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,520
Speaker 2: And I think being the older of the group that

80
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 2: guys are going to look to me for that. Uh.

81
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: And you know it's another uh, you know, a goal of.

82
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 2: Mine for this this training camp and trying to you know,

83
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 2: obviously I've been in this office for a while a

84
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 2: year before, so just bringing guys along and helping teach

85
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 2: and and and that and so forth.

86
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: Precision in this offense versus others that maybe you've been

87
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 1: in where maybe there is some allowance for I don't know,

88
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 1: black convetters like playmate A or freelance. Yeah.

89
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 2: I think it starts with, you know, getting the ball

90
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 2: out on time, you know, and playing on schedule. And

91
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 2: I think the guys are understanding that, you know, and

92
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 2: that's just so that all of us can be on

93
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 2: the same page, not only the receivers in the quarterback,

94
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 2: but also with the O line and the protection and

95
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 2: things of that nature. So I think, you know, these

96
00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 2: these first cold days getting reacclimated to the offense and

97
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,240
Speaker 2: stuff like that, I think it's really gonna be you know,

98
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: let's let's as much as we can do this on

99
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 2: time and you know, and steps and route depths and

100
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 2: things like that. All right, that's what that's what you

101
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 2: do right now, especially when you're not going against you know,

102
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 2: like a opposing defense. You know that, you know, you

103
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 2: get those reps of just you know, kind of doing

104
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:02,440
Speaker 2: it clean.

105
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 1: You know.

106
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 2: What is that?

107
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 1: All expanding health? A good shit for a team in

108
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 1: the situation. You got his man kill from his foundations. Yeah,

109
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: I think his plan.

110
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 2: I think him playing uh is definitely you know, a

111
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:21,039
Speaker 2: plus for us, you know, and you know, the he's

112
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 2: the same person every day, uh And in this league

113
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 2: that's hard to do. Throughout my years in this league,

114
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 2: seeing coaches and things like that, being the same guy

115
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: every day, and and you know, his message always stays

116
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: the same.

117
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:35,479
Speaker 1: Uh. And I think I guess starting a new thing out, you.

118
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:36,680
Speaker 2: Know, you kind of want somebody that's gonna be the

119
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 2: same every day, especially when you're trying to teach teach

120
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 2: a lot of guys a new system.

121
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: Uh. And you know, he he he expects us to

122
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: to to do well. He expects us to win.

123
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 2: And you know, and I think he probably wants it

124
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 2: more than a lot of a lot of us, to

125
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 2: be honest with you, And uh, you know, you want

126
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 2: you want those type of coaches that you know, you

127
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 2: know they're not only did demand it from the players,

128
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 2: but from him himself and and his his staff, and

129
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,520
Speaker 2: and you know, I'm excited, you know, obviously he's he's

130
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 2: calling the players this year, and uh, you know, and

131
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 2: I and I know what he stands for and what

132
00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 2: you know, what he's bringing to the table. So I'm

133
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,240
Speaker 2: excited for him, you know, and I'm excited for us.

134
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: And and obviously it's it's it's it's I think it's

135
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,320
Speaker 2: the right thing. He's the right guy for the job.

136
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: You know. All the person is someone's easy to act.

137
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 1: Just kind of an exception with him, on the field,

138
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,600
Speaker 1: but help how much? What's the comfort level with you?

139
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, I think I guess I would say

140
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 2: I probably know the office is a little bit better

141
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 2: than a lot of the other people on the team

142
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 2: right now. But uh, I think that, you know, not

143
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,800
Speaker 2: only helps myself, but it helps him as far as

144
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: you know, making sure that you know when he's talking

145
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 2: to say, hey, the tight ends or something like that,

146
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 2: I can go talk to receivers in it and he

147
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,719
Speaker 2: knows that the messages stand the same, stand the same.

148
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 2: So I think that definitely helps. Uh, and being able

149
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 2: to you know, relay some of the similar the same

150
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,720
Speaker 2: messages that you know that that when I was in

151
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,160
Speaker 2: this offense previously, that I know that he's trying to

152
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 2: carry over here.

153
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: So yeah, I think I think it will help training

154
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: camp broadly for the team. What are moles or bench martins.

155
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 1: You know, Hey, if we beat this, we beat this,

156
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,880
