Speaker 4: First of all, congratulations, welcome to New England. In a

141
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 4: couple hours, when people think of the New England Patriots

142
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 4: and they think of quarterback, they think of Tom Brady.

143
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 4: What do you think of Tom Brady? And following in

144
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 4: his footsteps?

145
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, tom Brady's the goat. Now it's easy to

146
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 2: say that he's the best to ever play this game.

147
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna be Tom Brady, so I'm just gonna

148
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 2: try to be Drake May and from there I'm just

149
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,400
Speaker 2: trying to learn from him, hopefully get to know him

150
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 2: a little bit, and other than that, just try to,

151
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,039
Speaker 2: you know, soak it up and be a sponge and

152
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,600
Speaker 2: try to learn all I can from him.

153
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: And he's the man in that town. So next we'll

Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the first thing just kid to know

160
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 2: me was the first thing. Asked me some background questions,

161
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 2: some family questions. I was the first time I had

162
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 2: talked to him was at the combine because I didn't

163
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 2: do anything senior bold stuff or any of that. So

164
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 2: we were just kins the background questions about my family,

165
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,000
Speaker 2: about my past two years, and they put me up

166
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 2: on the board a little bit and watch some tape.

167
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:18,640
Speaker 2: Some good play they remember and some of them are bad.

168
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 2: So just just kind of want to know my thought

169
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 2: process and just being honest up there. And I remember

170
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 2: drawing up play. I think they played against cover too.

171
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 2: I drew up a play.

172
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 6: So Drake, when we were just meeting with Gerard and Elliott,

173
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 6: Rodd said that, you know, you wanted to make it

174
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 6: clear that you're not coming in as the starter and

175
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 6: that you knew that. What were what what was that

176
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:39,920
Speaker 6: conversation like and what's your understanding on that?

177
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know they asked me coach, you know, they

178
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:43,599
Speaker 2: asked me, you know, in front of you know, just

179
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 2: me in front of a bunch of coaches and and

180
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 2: just you know, I think my first thing is helping

181
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 2: anyway I contribute, you prepare and be ready to be

182
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 2: the starter. But at the same time, I think you

183
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 2: know that as a as a young guy coming in there,

184
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 2: it's not given to you.

185
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 1: Got to earn it.

186
00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 2: In the NFL is some place you gotta work. You

187
00:06:58,240 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 2: work your butt off, and my job is to go

188
00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 2: in there and earn the guys respect. You'll help, you know,

189
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 2: help whoever is a starter if I'm not be the

190
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 2: best player they can and help the team win.

191
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 5: Next question Taylor Kyle's Greg. First of all, congratulations, Welcome

192
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 5: to New England.

193
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: Oh.

194
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 5: Watching your film, Man, one of the things that stood

195
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 5: out was your ability to attack the entire field inside

196
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 5: and outside.

197
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 1: So I'm curious.

198
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 5: So it's fourth and seven with the game on the line,

199
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 5: whether it's a concept or route, what would you say

200
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 5: is your bread and butter play that you feel really

201
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 5: comfortable with?

202
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:31,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think throwing up from over across the middle.

203
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 2: I think, you know, I got to see it well

204
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 2: on a big six spot do back there where it's

205
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 2: a seam shot, you know, a big dig you know,

206
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 2: in the corner, routes, corner post, anything across the middle

207
00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,360
Speaker 2: of the field. I feel like, you know, I'm uh

208
00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,400
Speaker 2: can make a throw, make all the throws, and I'm

209
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:45,640
Speaker 2: excited to if it's not there, it can go make

210
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 2: a play for myself. So I think that's the most

211
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 2: looking forward to it and help them kind of expand

212
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 2: that game into the NFL.

213
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:58,800
Speaker 1: Congratulations again, appreciate it. So Tyler Bronskina, can you hear me?

214
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: Rad Yeah, I got you up. Awesome man. Congrats uh Leman,

215
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: welcome to New England.

216
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 2: I'm curious if you're the type of guy that feeds

217
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,560
Speaker 2: off outside noise or the type that stays in this lane.

218
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: It doesn't really motivate you what your mindset when it

219
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 1: comes to that, Yeah, I think I can control That's

220
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 1: the biggest thing. You know.

221
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,720
Speaker 2: All the outside noise is you know, part of the

222
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 2: media trying to make headlines.

223
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 1: And the biggest thing for me is to worry.

224
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 2: About my play on the field, and I were about

225
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 2: my you know, how I am as a teammate in

226
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 2: the locker room and and I'm man in the community,

227
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 2: So that's what I'm worried about.

228
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: And all the outside noise.

229
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 2: I think, you know, it comes with, you know, my

230
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,520
Speaker 2: play on the field, and that's what I can controls.

231
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: A couple of final questions from inside the room.

232
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 3: Karen Hey Drake Elliott Wolf said he appreciated and liked

233
00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 3: that you had an ability ability to elevate the players

234
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,199
Speaker 3: around you. How do you feel you're able.

235
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:48,480
Speaker 1: To do that?

236
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 2: No doubt. I think that's huge part is being the quarterback.

237
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,960
Speaker 2: You're you're the face of the team. They look to you,

238
00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:00,680
Speaker 2: and then you know, my responsibilities to get the guys

239
00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,840
Speaker 2: know him personally. I think that's the biggest thing in genuinationships.

240
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 2: That's the kind of what I feed off of getting

241
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,839
Speaker 2: to know the guys truly, because he may not be

242
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,040
Speaker 2: able to handle, you know, the different guys the same

243
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 2: way you one guy to be able to get on,

244
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 2: you'll get them on. Get on them a little bit,

245
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 2: you know, yell at them or be a little harder

246
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 2: on them, like some go back into a clown. Some

247
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:17,439
Speaker 2: of the receivers. I could do that, and some of

248
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 2: the offensive linemen. I was more kind of gentle and

249
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 2: friendly and just picking them up. So get to know

250
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:22,959
Speaker 2: the guys personally, I think that's the biggest thing. And

251
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,680
Speaker 2: just just be one of the guys, you know. I

252
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 2: think coming in there as a you know, the top

253
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 2: three rookie, I think you kind of just just stay

254
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:33,599
Speaker 2: humble and don't let that worry about my play on

255
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,839
Speaker 2: the field and then winning games, and you know that

256
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 2: that's not why I'm playing the game for. I talked

257
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: about I love football, you know, I love winning, And

258
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:40,719
Speaker 2: I think the biggest thing is I hate lose.

259
00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 1: It hate losing anything I do, it don't matter what

260
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: it is. Great. What can Patriot fans expect from you

261
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: when you get here? Obviously fall of charisma.

262
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 3: You're excited about this opportunity, but what can Patriot fans

263
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 3: expect when you get here?

264
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, competitor in the winner. I think that's that's the

265
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,480
Speaker 2: that's the main two things that come to mind. You know,

266
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter from racing. Racing, you're out the door,

267
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 2: we're on the football field. Competing. I think you know,

268
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 2: I'm competing to win and that's what Patriot Nation is about.

269
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:06,679
Speaker 2: That's why I didn't know how to do and I'm

270
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 2: ready to come in and do that.

271
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,440
Speaker 6: Alex perth uh Drake. Obviously, just like a long few
