1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:01,880
Speaker 1: All right, we're joined by a new Giants running back,

2
00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: Devin Singletary. So Devin, let's stop real simple. Why'd you

3
00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 1: decide to come to the Giants?

4
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 2: Man?

5
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 3: You know, uh, opportunity, you know, I just want an opportunity,

6
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 3: you know, be a part of something special, you know,

7
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 3: And I like what things are headed here.

8
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 2: So that's one of the main things.

9
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 1: Why do you like where things are headed here?

10
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 2: You know, I seen I've seen these guys play last year.

11
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 2: You know.

12
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 3: Of course it wasn't a record that that everyone was

13
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 3: looking for, but but guys had a fight. God, guys

14
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 3: had some some dog in them. So man, I'm like,

15
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 3: I don't I don't mind being a part of that.

16
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,599
Speaker 2: You know. I'm all about, you know, helping the team win.

17
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 2: So that was one of the main reasons.

18
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,200
Speaker 1: What did you like about playing for Brian Dab when

19
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 1: he was your OC in Buffalo?

20
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 2: Man, he's fearless, you know. You know, I love that

21
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 2: about him.

22
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 3: You know, he's a dog, you know, and I feed

23
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 3: off of that energy because I'm a dog too.

24
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

25
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: Have they talked to you about the offense here and

26
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: how similar it is to what you did in Buffalo?

27
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, we talked briefly.

28
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 3: You know, it's brief, but I'm pretty sure it'll be

29
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,400
Speaker 3: easy to refresh up on that, you know, because it's

30
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,399
Speaker 3: because it is similar to what we did in Buffalo for.

31
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: Giant fansand image in your play. Describe your running style.

32
00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 3: For him, Man, I'm a dog. I feel like I

33
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 3: can do it all. I can run around you, I

34
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 3: can run through you, make you miss you know, whatever

35
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,280
Speaker 3: it needs to be done, I feel like I can

36
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 3: do it now.

37
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 1: I'm sure you've gotten the hype question your whole life,

38
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: and you're probably tired of it right when I watch

39
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: on tape. I gotta be honest with that. I think

40
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 1: it's an advantage for you. I think you can hide

41
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: behind the offensive line a little bit, and I think

42
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: your contact balance and your change your direction is probably

43
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: helped by your lower center of gravity. Do you think

44
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 1: that's an advantage for you?

45
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely, especially when you got guys that's six or

46
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,040
Speaker 3: five or better in front of you. You know, it

47
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 3: makes it hard for guys to see you. And you know,

48
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 3: just talking to different defenders around the league, they rather

49
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 3: go against a bigger back than a smaller back. I

50
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 3: hear that a lot, so yeah, I feel like it helps.

51
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: Came from Florida Atlantic, that's you went to school, right,

52
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: I'm sure you've kind of have you liked playing almost

53
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: like that underdog role your whole life and people county

54
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: out a little bit.

55
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't. I don't mind it, you know,

56
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 3: I don't mind it. If it's the underdog, if it's

57
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 3: the top dog, whatever, whatever it is. My mindset is

58
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 3: the same. I'm coming to put in work, you know

59
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. And that's what it is.

60
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 1: No beause you went to Houston there, Damien Pierce there,

61
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 1: and Damien's a great running back, but you managed to

62
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: play yourself onto the field there, right? Is that just

63
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: part of your personality and that if you're given an opportunity,

64
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 1: you're gonna try to seize it at every chance you get.

65
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, always been a part of me.

66
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:41,799
Speaker 1: Man.

67
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 3: It's if it's looking good, if it's looking bad, I'm

68
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,959
Speaker 3: always stay ready, you know, that's me and when the

69
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 3: opportunity presents itself, take full advantage of it.

70
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: In your NFL career, where do you think you've improved

71
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: the most as a running back?

72
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 2: Oh Man, past pro that's always the answer.

73
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: From running backs, it's always past.

74
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 3: Past pro because it's you know, it's different coming from

75
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 3: college to the league, you know, and you got to

76
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 3: work at it.

77
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 2: That's the only way. So I'll definitely say past bro.

78
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: Is it more mental or physical to get that right?

79
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:14,920
Speaker 3: A little bit of both, because your masset has to

80
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,480
Speaker 3: be right, your manset has to be right, and then

81
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 3: you got to continue to work to work on your technique.

82
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,959
Speaker 3: But it's definitely your mosset has to be right.

83
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: Now, You've always been used as a receiver, but I

84
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,519
Speaker 1: felt like in Houston, especially in the last year, you

85
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: got some more downfield targets a little bit. Do you

86
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: think you're developing a little bit as a rape runner

87
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 1: to be more of a downfield target in the passing game?

88
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I'm just trying to improve and always

89
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 3: you know, whatever that is. But yeah, definitely, you know,

90
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 3: that's that's one of the things that I work on.

91
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:44,640
Speaker 3: You know, in this league, you got to be able

92
00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 3: to catch out of the backfield.

93
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 2: So for sure, did you did.

94
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: Jun intel gathering on the former Bills that we're playing

95
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: here about what it's like to play for the Giants

96
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: and what it's like to play in New York.

97
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:54,960
Speaker 2: No, not yet.

98
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 3: But I heard great things heard. I heard it's like

99
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 3: the city of dreams, so I'm looking forward to it.

100
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: Off the field, what are some of the things you're

101
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 1: looking forward to now that you're going to be stationed

102
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:03,839
Speaker 1: in New York.

103
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 3: Ah, Man, just take advantage of what's going on in

104
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 3: the city.

105
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 2: I guess you know.

106
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 3: I haven't spent much time in the city, so you know,

107
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 3: I'm fairly new to it. Pretty sure I'll find my

108
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 3: way around though.

109
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 1: Finally, a couple of new offensive linemen in the house

110

00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,520

112
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 3: I feel like it's gonna be fun. Man, I'm looking

113

Speaker 3: forward to it. Ready to get to work. It's gonna
