Speaker 2: first time, you know, being out here, we're in this Jersey,

7
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 2: it's an amazing privilege. So you know, we definitely hold

8
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,600
Speaker 2: it in high regard, and you just want to continue

9
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:19,720
Speaker 2: to get better each and every day. In any time

10
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 2: you get to play football, it's the best.

11
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:24,640

Speaker 3: Giants sort releasing some of the clips of the production

13
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 3: the day done from the draft process and you and

14
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 3: Davell going back and forth on the whiteboard, I think started.

15
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: Going viral a little bit, and like, can you just

16
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 1: take us through that?

17
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:37,200
Speaker 3: What what it was like being tested in that regard?

18
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: How'd you been testing that regard? Yeah?

19
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I mean I think a lot of people have seen,

20
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:42,680
Speaker 2: you know, the process a little bit on hard knocks,

21
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 2: but it's intense. Uh, you know, I kind of had

22
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,159
Speaker 2: an idea coming into it, you know that I had

23
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 2: to make sure that I was on my p's and

24
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 2: Q's when I walked in.

25
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: So it was super fun.

26
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:52,640
Speaker 2: I think that at the same time, you know, me

27
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 2: and him were able to just form like an organic relationship,

28
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 2: and you know, they definitely tested me, you know, harder

29
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 2: than any other you know team throughout this process, and

30
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 2: you know, I was just grateful to to to come

31
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 2: here and and to take that challenge.

32
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: On and you know, be around these great coaches.

33
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 3: What was it that you identified that seemed to go pretty.

34
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,480
Speaker 2: I just a concept and I figured out pretty quick.

35
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 2: And then it was a question that they hadn't you know,

36
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 2: put into my installer, you know, for me to know that,

37
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:19,200
Speaker 2: I just kind of knew it.

38
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: So athletics.

39
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 4: So just watch Hard Knocks as like as a football fan.

40
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 4: And then did that give you a little clue of

41
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 4: what you'd be in for when you down devil?

42
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 2: Quite honestly, I didn't watch it all, but I just

43
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 2: saw like clips of it on TikTok, So.

44
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:39,039
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, Jack say Jim a series Picks eleven here.

45
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 5: Uh Cam was up here just a minute ago, just

46
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 5: talking about how smart you seem out there on day one.

47
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 5: How much pride do you take in performing off the

48
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 5: field as well as on the field.

49
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, as a quarterback, you know, you're the one that run.

50
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: You know, you run the ship when you're out there.

51
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,360
Speaker 2: So you know, if you're if you don't know the

52
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 2: ins and outs of everything, you're not going to have

53
00:01:58,200 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 2: everybody around you prepared.

54
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: And I think that's super important. It's very important.

55
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 2: To have that that mindset coming to work each and

56
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 2: every day. And I think that that also raises the

57
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 2: bar for everybody around you. And I think that if

58
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 2: you want to be a great team and you want

59
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: to you know, compete at the highest level, that's definitely

60
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:14,320
Speaker 2: how you have to be as a quarterback.

61
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,840
Speaker 5: Ye see, thank you.

62
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 6: Have you had any chance to speak with Woindson and

63
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 6: or Wilson And if not, what's one of the first

64
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 6: things you want to ask those guys?

65
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:25,639
Speaker 1: Oh?

66
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, they've been great. You know, they were some of

67
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 2: the first people to text me when I got drafted,

68
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 2: and I thought that was just super cool. You know,

69
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 2: those are those are guys that I've looked up to

70
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 2: for such a long time. You know, I've said this before,

71
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 2: Like I remember I was wearing Russ's jersey, uh with

72
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:42,440
Speaker 2: the Seahawks when you want a Super Bowl? So like

73
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 2: I said, these guys have been you know, people who

74
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 2: I've really looked up to, and you.

75
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 1: Know I hold them in the highest regards.

76
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 2: So I think for me being in the situation, being

77
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 2: able to be a sponge and you know, soaking all

78
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 2: the information that I can will help elevate me. And

79
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: then at the same time, you know, I just want

80
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 2: to compete and make everybody else better in the room

81
00:02:58,440 --> 00:02:59,560

87
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 6: When you come to rookie Minni camp. I mean, there

88
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 6: are a lot of guys who probably you know won't

89
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 6: be here come Sunday. For you, What was the process

90
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,799
Speaker 6: like starting last night of getting your guys that you're

91
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 6: playing with today and tomorrow ready for the opportunity to

92
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 6: look like you know, you're trying to get guys set

93
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 6: up in the seven on sevens, guys who you haven't

94
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,880
Speaker 6: played with. What is that like? What's that mindset like

95
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 6: for you? For a guy who always wants to take

96
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 6: care of that.

97
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, first and foremost, I mean, this is just

98
00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: an incredible opportunity for anybody who can step on the

99
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 2: field out here at this you know, at the NFL level.

100
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 2: So I think for all of us, we're just super

101
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 2: grateful to be here. It doesn't matter where he got drafted,

102
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 2: where he got picked. You got to come with the

103
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 2: same mind. It's each and every day. And you see

104
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 2: so many guys across the league who have you know,

105
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 2: a ton of success, who maybe weren't even drafted the highest,

106
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 2: but you know they come to work every single day

107
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,360
Speaker 2: and they're consistent. And I think the biggest thing coming

108
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 2: out here, Uh, you know, we had you know, a

109
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 2: great group last night. We all got together and made

110
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,040
Speaker 2: sure that we went through the script and did a

111
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 2: walk through. So you know, that made coming out here

112
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 2: on the field, you know, the operation a lot smoother

113
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 2: and everybody was a lot more confident, was able to

114
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: play a lot faster when we got.

115
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 3: To the field in the building or you're talking about

116
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 3: like when you got back.

117
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,279
Speaker 2: To Yeah, we just talked on the bus on our

118
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 2: way back, and you know, I think as the quarterback,

119
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 2: you got to make sure that everybody knows what they're doing. So,

120
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 2: you know, I tried to, you know, get as many

121
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 2: guys as I could together on the offensive side of

122
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 2: the ball and go through it and teach everybody, making

123
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 2: sure that.

124
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:32,280
Speaker 1: We're all on the same page. Ran from then to

125
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 1: meet you for any story behind that necklace. Yeah, actually

126
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: here's the story. So my little sister had it. It

127
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: was hers.

128
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,360
Speaker 2: It was before our bowl game, and as I was

129
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 2: leaving the house over Christmas a little break before the

130
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,000
Speaker 2: bowl game, and just saw it in a room and

131
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 2: I was like, you know what, I kind of like it,

132
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 2: so put it on.

133
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,680
Speaker 1: It's kind of been good luck for me ever since.

134
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,000
Speaker 5: So and then the other thing totally shifting years to

135
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 5: football everybody, So the John Gruden clip, the snapcount, et cetera.

136
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 5: How comfortable are you doing a snapcount?

137
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,320
Speaker 2: And those table said you're gonna have to do one

138
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,799
Speaker 2: today versus versus what you did in college with the clapping.

139
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, did you guys hear me?

140
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 5: Good?

141
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: While I was out there. Yeah.

142
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,680
Speaker 2: Now, I feel like it's been super fun. You know,

143
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 2: quite honestly, it's been something that I've always wanted to

144
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 2: do and I've always kind of practiced it, you know,

145
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 2: on my own or you know, kind of just messing

146
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 2: around with buddies and whatnot.

147
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: But you know, I think it's always a little bit

148
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: of a transition.

149
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 2: You know, it really goes for anybody from the college

150
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 2: level to the NFL level. The cadence is different no

151
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 2: matter where you've been at, so you're always gonna have

152
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:33,800
Speaker 2: a little bit of a learning curve. But you know,

153
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: something that really excites me, and you know, I think

154
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 2: that you know, you have so many opportunities and advantages

155
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:41,760
Speaker 2: with the cadence and you can do so many different

156
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,360
Speaker 2: things that you know, can take advantage of the defense. So, uh,

157
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 2: definitely something I wanted to continue to excel at each

158
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:51,679
Speaker 2: and every day.

159
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 1: How does your sister feel about it?

160
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 2: She likes it, She likes now. My little brother ordered

161
00:05:55,839 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 2: one too, so yeah, we got her another one too.

162
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 2: You got another one. I am the oldest.

163
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

164
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 7: Jackson and Paul Schwartz from the New York Post, you

165
00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 7: mentioned about how quarterback you know, needs to get everybody

166
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 7: involved and you don't know what's going on.

167
00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:15,599
Speaker 8: I mean, how comfortable does a person have to be

168
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 8: to be you know, your first round pick your other

169
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 8: quarterback and started in a SEC school for many years

170
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:23,720
Speaker 8: in their own skin and to be everyone looking at

171
00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 8: you and waiting for you and you know the guy, Yeah,

172
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 8: how comfortable.

173
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:28,359
Speaker 1: Is that for you?

174
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,120
Speaker 2: I just think I'm really confident my preparation every day

175
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: and I feel like anytime I step on the field,

176
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,080
Speaker 2: like I don't have doubts on my play. And I

177
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,039
Speaker 2: think that that comes from taking the time to really

178
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 2: understand the scheme and what I'm doing and what's why

179
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 2: is a play called.

180
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:45,000
Speaker 1: To execute a certain way? And you know that's something

181
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: that I take pride on.

182
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 2: And then you know, as a quarterback, you know you're

183
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 2: only as good as the guys around you, So you know,

184
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,200
Speaker 2: you want to make sure that everybody's on the same

185
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,760
Speaker 2: page and everybody has that same preparation aspect of making

186
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 2: sure that everything's down to a t and has.

187
00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: Done the right way.

188
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 2: And our coaches did a great job praying for us,

189
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 2: and I kind of wanted to continue that because you know,

190
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 2: at times you're kind of limited with time, and uh,

191
00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 2: you know, everybody kind of has a little question, So

192
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 2: just wanted to answer that and get everybody on the

193
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 2: same page.

194
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: Jackson Steve s post.

195
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 8: What kind of feedback were you getting from coach table on.

196
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:16,600
Speaker 4: The field today.

197
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, he coaches me up, like every second I'm around him.

198
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 2: He's the guy that will walk in a room say

199
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 2: you know, goodbye and whatnot, and then I'll come back.

200
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: Thirty seconds later because he has an idea.

201
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 2: So he's constantly, you know, coaching me, and I think

202
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 2: that that's just that's what I want to be around.

203
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:32,600
Speaker 1: You know, I want to be the coach.

204
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,720
Speaker 2: I want to be coached the hardest, and you know,

205
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 2: I feel like that's gonna help me excel the highest

206
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 2: level and help me reach my potential.

207
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 1: So there's not another coach I'd rather be playing for.

208
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,600
Speaker 4: It seems like a lot after your last throw that

209
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 4: sounds specific about that read that play, or they're just

210
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 4: more just the entire period after you do that last bat,

211
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 4: like right.

212
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:49,720
Speaker 3: In your ear.

213
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 1: Yeah.

214
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 2: No, he was just kind of you know, asking what

215
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 2: I was seeing, kind of explained it to him and

216
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,600
Speaker 2: making sure that we're just on the same page.

217
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 3: It became very clear some of the clips that have

218
00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 3: come out during the drift process that he wanted you

219
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 3: that you were Davil's guy. What does that mean to

220
00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 3: you to have a coach that that really really wants

221
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 3: to work with you and sees the potential in you

222
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 3: and is about.

223
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 2: As investors years you can get. Yeah, I'm blessed to

224
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,200
Speaker 2: be here. I'm blessed to be able to, you know,

225
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 2: be coached by him. And I think that we just

226
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 2: kind of collect, you know, personality wise of how we

227
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 2: handle things and kind of just like our competitive nature,

228
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 2: our toughness and our great about how we go about things.

229
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 1: I think that that just helped us connect.

230
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 2: And you know, he sees football the same way that

231
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 2: I see it, and you know, we see it as

232
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 2: a physical and tough sport. And you know, I think

233
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 2: that a lot of times you don't really see that

234
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,480
Speaker 2: a ton with quarterbacks. And you know, for me, you know,

235
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 2: I I kind of play like a defensive player a

236
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 2: little bit with just you know, the way that I

237
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 2: attack each and every everything I do.

238
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:46,720
Speaker 1: Jackson Padliner, Daily News. You seem comfortable. Did that happen

239
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:47,439
Speaker 1: very quickly?

240
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 2: Like after you got drafted or just getting on the

241
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 2: field make you feel more comfortable?

242
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 1: Like what you know? Can you walk me through how

243
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: you got to this point?

244
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I said, I'm just I'm confident when I

245
00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 2: step you know, in between those lines. I felt prepared

246
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,360
Speaker 2: coming into today, and I'm a competitor, and I feel

247
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 2: like if you don't see yourself, you know, playing at

248
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 2: the highest level, you shouldn't even be between those lines

249
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 2: in the first place, especially as the quarterback of how

250
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 2: you're going to lead the guys around you. So you know,

251
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,560
Speaker 2: I've come prepared and I'm confident when I step between

252
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 2: those lines.

253
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 8: When is the last time you did not start?

254
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: You know, when?

255
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 8: Will you kind of a guy on the bench.

256
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 1: I haven't you know, really sat before middle.

257
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 7: School, elementary school, anything, nothing. Okay, well, okay, I wouldn't

258
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 7: know what that feels like. But how are you going

259
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 7: to deal with that?

260
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 1: You know, I'm just I'm a competitor.

261
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna come to work at each and every

262
00:09:42,440 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 2: day and you know, do my best to make everybody

263
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 2: around me better. You know, I understand, you know what

264
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 2: the situation is, you know, but you know, for me

265
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 2: and myself, you know, I care about winning. You know,

266
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,520
Speaker 2: there's nothing fun about losing, so uh, it doesn't matter

267
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,959
Speaker 2: you know, where you're at on the depth chart, if

268
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 2: you're playing this much or not playing this much. If

269
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 2: you're losing sucks. So you know, for me, I want

270
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,439
Speaker 2: to make the team better, and that's my focus.

271
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,640
Speaker 4: Why I was just gonna for about.

Speaker 2: and Michael sure.

277
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,200
Speaker 1: Hand spoke to you guys, and when what do you

278
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 1: take from that?

279
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 4: And what do you think when a guy like that here?

280
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:34,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's incredible. He's a legend and you see

281
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:35,880
Speaker 2: him on the walls. I've seen him on TV for

282
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 2: you know, a long time. He's bigger in person. So

283
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 2: it's great to have a have a person like that

284
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 2: who's open, who's able to come around the facility a

285

286
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 2: people that you can lean on and ask for advice

287
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 2: because they've done it at the highest level. So that's

288
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 2: kind of my mindset, and I'm excited to continue to

289
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:53,480
Speaker 2: grow my relationship with him,
