1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: WoT Uh.

2
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:17,440
Speaker 2: First of all, welcome to Pittsburgh.

3
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:18,799
Speaker 3: Uh, Coach Tomlin.

4
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 4: You made it known that he had told you that

5
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 4: you're not a raven, you shouldn't.

6
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 3: Be over there. Is it fair to say he was right?

7
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:25,360
Speaker 4: Yeah?

8
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 5: I think he was right. Now for the time being,

9
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 5: I think, uh, he just had a feeling be down

10
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:33,159
Speaker 5: that I would eventually end up here. So now that

11
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 5: I am here, I'm excited to be here. I can't

12
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 5: wait to get to work with the guys and get

13
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:37,479
Speaker 5: to know everybody.

14
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:39,599
Speaker 3: Why did you wanna play for him and come here

15
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 3: to Pittsburgh?

16
00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: Uh?

17
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,960
Speaker 5: Just the history you know they was always when us here. Uh,

18
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 5: great organization, Uh, Hall of Fame players that you can

19
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 5: talk about. So that was a big reason. Just the

20
00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 5: players that's here, most of the defense that I wanna

21
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 5: talk about. Uh, just those guys, you know what they're about,

22
00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 5: how they play the game, Uh, how they interact with

23
00:00:59,920 --> 00:01:02,360
Speaker 5: it everybody. So I think that's just the biggest keys

24
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 5: for me coming.

25
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 3: Here, specifically about the defense.

26
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 4: How do you feel like you fit in with you know,

27
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 4: this rivalry, the physicality and how Baltimore and Pittsburgh are

28
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:11,400
Speaker 4: so similar.

29
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 5: It's a AFC North Football That's the best way to

30
00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 5: describe it, though. Just we gonna not gonna make anything complicated.

31
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:18,759
Speaker 5: We're gonna go out there and play football, play physical,

32
00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 5: play fast, free, loose, and all that stuff.

33
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:24,320
Speaker 4: Last year the Ravens declined your fifty year option. At

34
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 4: the time, you said, blessing in disguise clearly motivated you.

35
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,039
Speaker 4: Major First Pro Bowl, second team All Pro.

36
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 3: Uh.

37
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 2: How do you carry that over here to Pittsburgh? That production?

38
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 5: Just keep doing what I'm doing? Uh, you know, I

39
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 5: don't need to change anything up. Uh, even though it's

40
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 5: a different place. Just gotta go out there and do

41
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 5: what I do. Uh, be there when my teammates had

42
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,480
Speaker 5: their back, and just go out there and play football

43
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 5: the way I know how to play it.

44
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 3: Do you think it was that chip on your shoulder?

45
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: Was it?

46
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 4: Also you're growing and learning and you're getting older as you.

47
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 3: You know, get used to everything.

48
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 5: I think it was me just growing.

49
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: Uh.

50
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 5: I think the chip, you know, kind of fell off,

51
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 5: uh a little bit way through the summer. Just going

52
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 5: out there, being with my teammates every day. He probably

53
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 5: took my mind off all that stuff. So it was

54
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 5: just me going out there playing football, growing up, being

55
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 5: able to grand experience. You know, coming into the league,

56
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 5: I was young, didn't play that much in college, So

57
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 5: just being able to fully you know, get the experience

58
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,640
Speaker 5: of playing under my belt probably helped the most.

59
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 4: What's a misconception about you would probably say that.

60
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 5: That I can't do it on my own. I think, uh,

61
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,959
Speaker 5: everybody thinks that, you know, I needs I need a run,

62
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,839
Speaker 5: and mate, that's better than me to uh be able

63
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,840
Speaker 5: to do stuff on my own. So uh, you know,

64
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 5: the biggest thing for me now is just going out

65
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 5: there improve it that. You know, I could be that guy.

66
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 5: I could be the vocal leader, the dominant leader, the

67
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 5: guy that everybody looks up to.

68
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 4: What was it like playing with Roquand though and he

69
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 4: had to off taught you things?

70
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:45,360
Speaker 3: Can you share that with us?

71
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:45,679
Speaker 1: Yeah?

72
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:49,119
Speaker 5: He most of a great dude, uh, vocal leader, passionate

73
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 5: guy and just e just seeing him how he plays

74
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 5: every every single day, every single day, practice, f film,

75
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 5: the way he goes into cfeteria, Greece, everybody, Uh, just

76
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 5: all around guys. Uh, there's so much stuff that I

77
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 5: learned from that guy, and now I am thankful for

78
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 5: him and he knows that. Uh, we talked about it,

79
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 5: so It's just so much stuff that could go on

80
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 5: about that guy.

81
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,440
Speaker 2: Being that you were drafted by the Ravens, you were

82
00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 2: taught to hate the Steelers.

83
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:14,679
Speaker 3: Uh, from probably day one.

84
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 4: Is it hard to like wrap your head around playing

85
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 4: for the other side?

86
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 5: It definitely is hard.

87
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: Uh.

88
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 5: It's like waking up and just checking my phone and

89
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 5: just looking and it's like I can't believe I really

90
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 5: up going there. So it's there. It's definitely different. You know,

91
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 5: I'm getting crucified about it from the fans and stuff.

92
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 5: But I mean, at the end of the day, you know,

93
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:33,799
Speaker 5: I got a family to take care of. A man

94
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 5: I honestly couldn't see a better fit for me.

95
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 4: Go on somewhere besides here, what's something you want the

96
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 4: Steelers fans to know about you as a person and

97
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 4: as a player, As a person, as.

98
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 5: A player, I think y'all just gonna get everything out

99
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 5: of me. You know, I'm just super excited to be here.

100
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:49,720
Speaker 1: Uh.

101
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 5: We got a lot of great things ahead and I

102
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 5: can't wait to be a part of that.

103
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 4: Talk to me about your pregay ritual of listening to

104
00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 4: some Phil Collins.

105
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 2: Uh, how did that start and how does that get

106
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:01,080
Speaker 2: you pumped up for a game.

107
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: Uh.

108
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 5: They started in high school.

109
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: Uh.

110
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 5: Our coach was like telling us the story and had

111
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 5: like had a little in the background and stuff and

112
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 5: turn the lights off and had the coaches beating on

113
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 5: the wall and stuff. And it was the semi final

114
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 5: game before the uh Dome. So that's just stuck with

115
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 5: me the whole time. And you know, so now every

116
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 5: time I step on the field, ill play that. Listen

117
00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 5: to it a little bit.

118
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:20,520
