8
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 3: thoughts coming in out from watching. I know a couple

9
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 3: of teams talk to me. So I was just great

10
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 3: watching and let me just relieved that the Cowboys kicked me.

11
00:00:38,560 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 2: How do they What are they planned to do with you?

12
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,199
Speaker 3: Do you know if you're gonna be a tackle, if

13
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,840
Speaker 3: you're gonna be guard, a little bit of both. I'm

14
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 3: not sure what they plan, but they know I'm a

15
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 3: versutive player who can play multiple positions, and so I'm

16

17
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 2: How was the Senior ball for you? Did you think

18
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 2: that kind of helped you a little bit some teams?

19
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that definitely showcased my versatility. For sure.

20
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:09,919
Speaker 3: I've been playing left tackle my whole career at UH Carolina,

21
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 3: and so when I was able to step into that

22
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,640
Speaker 3: right guard road, that left guard road, and that was

23
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 3: just like that was just a boost for my uh

24
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 3: my value, you know. So I'm just glad I got

25
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:27,000

Speaker 3: I'm gonna get you.

38
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 1: What's the biggest difference from going tackle to guard? And

39
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: why do you think you're able to Why do you

40
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:09,839
Speaker 1: think you'll be able to handle that?

41
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it just happens a lot quicker the defender,

42
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 3: get your get your hands on them, get your hands

43
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 3: on you a lot quicker then on the outside, because

44
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 3: outside you got some time, there's a lot more space.

45
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 3: But I think I can handle that I'm quick enough

46
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 3: on my feet to be able to to be on

47
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 3: those guys, and I just got to get my hands right,

48
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 3: and so that's what I've been working on so I'm

49
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 3: able to handle it.

50
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 2: High school. I think you changed positions senior year.

51
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 3: Why say that one more time?

52
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 2: You change positions in your senior high school where your

53
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 2: defense play tackle?

54
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:57,239
Speaker 3: How can you make that change because of the they

55
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 3: needed another tackle because our guys graduated. I was playing

56
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 3: tight end Titland defensive end, and I still played defensive

57
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 3: end my tenior year, but I'm at that transition over

58
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 3: to playing tackle, and so I just did it with

59
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 3: the team needed at the time and those was best

60
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 3: and so I did it. I made that change.

61
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 2: What would mean to come to a room that that's

62
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,959
Speaker 2: Tyron Smith and Jack Martin leading the way.

63
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 3: Oh that's that's amazing. I've been I grew up watching

64
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 3: Larren Smith and so it it'll be a great opportunity

65
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:37,600
Speaker 3: to learn from him.

66
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 2: I think, uh, Mac Brown came into Carolina and I

67
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 2: think you committed to them. You say tenure commitment after

68
00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 2: they made the coach and change. What was it about

69
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 2: Mac that you liked that you had to that you

70
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,080
