1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: You got your starting quarterback back Daniel Jones today, So

2
00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: what did it feel like having him runing the offense

3
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: in a real game.

4
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. It was nice to have him out there.

5
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 2: I feel like we, you know, started getting the groove. Obviously,

6
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:12,680
Speaker 2: we got a lot of stuff to correct, but it's

7
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 2: nice to having the whole crew together.

8
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:16,240
Speaker 1: How are you coming along right now? I mean, you know,

9
00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: you had a little bit of delay because you were

10
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: banged up initially, and you know we're behind the eight ball,

11
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 1: But is it Is it coming along according to schedule?

12
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I'm at a great spot right now.

13
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,119
Speaker 2: Just got to keep shipping away at the playbook. But

14
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:27,920
Speaker 2: you know, I think when it comes to speed a

15
00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 2: game and stuff like that, I think, you know, I'm

16
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 2: at a really good spot. Obviously, got a lot of

17
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,640
Speaker 2: room to improve, but I think I'm trending in the

18
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 2: right direction.

19
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: For sure. We're able to tell a little bit of

20
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 1: the speed difference between facing some starters this week as

21
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 1: opposed to last week when guys didn't play starters.

22
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, you know, that really started in our

23
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 2: joint practice. I think you know, that really got me

24
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 2: acclimated to the speed. So this week coming out. It

25
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 2: wasn't a shock to me or surprised. With those two

26
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 2: joint practices.

27
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: We've got to this point. What has been the most

28
00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 1: challenging part about jumping up to the NFL as a

29
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: tight end I know the playbook has got to be

30
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: a little different than what you saw at Penn State.

31
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's definitely a playbook for sure, tight

32
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 2: end position. No matter where you are, what system, there's

33
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 2: a lot on your plate, but especially this system, we

34
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,120
Speaker 2: just need to know so much. So I think just

35
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 2: the sheer volume and making sure I'm clean with all

36
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 2: that stuff has been the biggest challenge. But I think

37
00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 2: I've definitely came a long way for sure.

38
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 1: It seems like this rookie class is very close and

39
00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 1: you guys really root for each other. So you see

40
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,200
Speaker 1: a guy like Neighbors make that catch like he made,

41
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 1: I have to imagine it's still a thrill for you

42
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: even though you didn't get to grab the ball.

43
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt. We're all rooting for each other, all

44
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 2: the rookies. You know, we came in we were struggling

45
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 2: and trying to, you know, figure out this NFL game altogether.

46
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 2: So when you see someone out there making plays. You're

47
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 2: always rooting from, all right, So.

48
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: You get one practice against the Jets, then you have

49
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: a game against the Jets next week, and then before

50
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: you know what, the real season starts against Minnesota. How

51
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: far away do you think you are from being ready

52
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,960
Speaker 1: for Week one of the NFL season.

53
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think we just got to stay on track

54
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 2: with this trajector we are right now. The trajectory I'm

55
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 2: on right now. I think by the time we come

56
00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 2: Week one comes, I'm gonna be more than ready to go,

57
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 2: but just gonna keep chipping away day by day.
