1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,400 Speaker 1: Players had a little rest yesterday off we're gonna bring 2 00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 1: back in today. Uh, the folks gonna be fundamentals today. 3 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: It will be a kind of a little bit briefer 4 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,879 Speaker 1: practice on OFF by an hour and fifteen minutes. We 5 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 1: see a lot of individual periods, some team run focused 6 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:13,880 Speaker 1: switching seven on seven, make sure you get the offensive, 7 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: defensive line playing time going one on one, two on two, 8 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: and five on four. And we're just making sure that 9 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 1: we go through our previous installs come out of today 10 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,440 Speaker 1: after a long week of practice last week and eliminating 11 00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,160 Speaker 1: the stakes we made in the grass. If that are 12 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,480 Speaker 1: folks will be going forward some new install pushing forward 13 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: on that. So that being said, any questions I can answer, 14 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: guys activated se Kwan off PPLs. What what can we 15 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:33,919 Speaker 1: kind of expect to see from him over the course 16 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: of today and this week. Yeah, So, look as they 17 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: keep green light and sa Kwan to do more and more, 18 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: We're gonna let them do more and more. I always 19 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 1: say all the time, Look, I'm not the doctor. I'm 20 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 1: gonna listen to their guide and staid the ones are 21 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 1: hands on with his rehab. Whatever they allow us to do, 22 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:46,919 Speaker 1: we will. So what're you're gonna see from him these 23 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 1: first few days. I hope you doing mostly individual teach periods. 24 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: We're not going to put him in eleven on eleven 25 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: or seven on seven at this point right now. But 26 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,000 Speaker 1: as we keep building him up and really kind of 27 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: start to you know, get his body into the volume 28 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 1: of practice to pace a practice of the players out there, 29 00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: you know, more up all drills, that'll be something that 30 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: benefits him as going forward. There's only so much you 31 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,240 Speaker 1: can do at a certain point with the trainers and 32 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: strength coaches on on the field. By yourself. It's time 33 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,760 Speaker 1: to get him moving forward, and as long as they 34 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: say it's safe for him to do, we'll go ahead 35 00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 1: and keep on pushing it forward. Pretty excited when he was, Yeah, 36 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: just it's happening us foot For a while, guys, I've 37 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,240 Speaker 1: been saying this this guy, you know, look, he works tireless, 38 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: so hard. He's been chopping at the bit. The biggest 39 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 1: thing I just hit him with this morning was I 40 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,479 Speaker 1: can't ask you to be patient, because that's not really 41 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: natural for an athlete in the situation, But I ask 42 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,400 Speaker 1: you to be understanding and just trust the people are 43 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 1: making decisions, but you're interested hard you have to worry 44 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 1: about as a coach, protecting say Quan. I mean, he's 45 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 1: a bright guy, but he's also competitive, protecting him from 46 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 1: to himself in his mind. You know, let me try this, 47 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: let me do a little more than I should think 48 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: I can do. Yeah, I think protecting the players tied 49 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 1: in based on how we set up the practice and 50 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 1: what he's available to do. So we give him certain drills. 51 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: That's something that's been coordinated with the medical team and 52 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: the rehab group, and that's something that's tied into the 53 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: him he's gonna every day. So just the plan is 54 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: what's gonna protect him right there. We're not gonna at 55 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: some point see him do something, let m jump into 56 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,440 Speaker 1: a drill that he's not allowed to do. That's our 57 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: job as coaches, make sure we regulate what's going on 58 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: practice me for his path to being potentially be ready 59 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: for a week one. Yeah, I don't think this changed 60 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,920 Speaker 1: anything at this point. There's nothing different now than when 61 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: I've talked about the entire time. We're gonna be patient 62 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: with him. We're gonna watch a he responds each situation 63 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: when the doctors say he's green light to go out 64 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: there and do something. He will. I'm sure the next 65 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: question is gonna be about preseason. When he's green light 66 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: to do something, we'll go ahead and keep advancing form. 67 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: So I don't have an answer right now anything preseason 68 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 1: game wise or regular season game wise. Who's gonna watch 69 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: him on the field and sew it does day by 70 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: day season game and the theory buys theoretically, Yeah, yeah, 71 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: I am absolutely, And to be honest, I've had I've 72 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: had experience with this. So look, there was a dad 73 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 1: to walk in and tell Josh Gordon to Marus Thomas 74 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: and Julian Edelman and the hey all four all three 75 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: years gonna play against the Giants in preseason game four, BECU, 76 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: you haven't done anything competitively in training camp. Now they're 77 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: gonna naturally look at you like you're crazy. But thet 78 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,239 Speaker 1: engine is gonna go out there and just say you 79 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: just have to play. The thing is, before you get 80 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: hit in the first game at full speed, when the 81 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 1: speed does elevate, I want to go out there and 82 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 1: just get you used to just the tempo of the game, 83 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: the pace of the game, get you catch, get your hit, 84 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: get the field being tackled. That's that's natural. Preparation. You 85 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 1: don't want to put someone a situation where they're just 86 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 1: getting gauntlet out there getting hit. But that's part of 87 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: actually preparation, your body understanding and feeling the flow of 88 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 1: how to get hit, how to fall, how to recover 89 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: after that. So my looking to put sa Kwana something 90 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: you know that's not gonna be to his best interests, 91 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 1: absolutely not. But if at some point the doctors say 92 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: he's ready to play and we have the opportunity to 93 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: get him into a certain point, we will, but I'm 94 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: not going to press that timetable anything. Well, now, has 95 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 1: he been on like a steady ascent to this point 96 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: today without like a hiccup or anything? Do you can 97 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: you recall I can't answer that completely. We kind of 98 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: paste it out Kim based on push him to a 99 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: point and then backing him off, and then pushing them 100 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: backing him off. I'm sure we'll stay a little bit 101 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: on that course as well as we go through training 102 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: camp right now with him. But in terms of his ascent, 103 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 1: that's been consistent. He's gotten better since you know we've 104 00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: had him. We're just being very careful in terms of 105 00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: how we manage it. And I always say we're taking 106 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 1: a long term perspective with this. This is a long 107 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: term for him individually and the team seventeen game season, 108 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: you know, years in the future obviously, But how much 109 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 1: say has he had like with you, like the two 110 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: of you. I assume top one on one. Look, I 111 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: listened to players all the time. You gotta trust him 112 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: on how they say they feel. At the same time, 113 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: represent question the terms of protecting players from themselves. He 114 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: is a competitor, you know, and he wants to get 115 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: out there, and sometimes we've got to help these guys 116 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 1: make the best decisions by putting him in periodically and 117 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: making sure they're safe for what they're gonna do next. Joe, 118 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 1: you have another player off the pub. Um. You know, 119 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,279 Speaker 1: he didn't really do much for you last year. By 120 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 1: a time you got your hands on him, he was out. 121 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 1: You know, I mean, what what's your sense of him? 122 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 1: It's certainly a position of need that edge rusher. We 123 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: had X men for a period of time last year. 124 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: I have been trained to camp MPs games. Last year 125 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: he came back. It's unfortunately he had to deal with 126 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: an injury. We're excited to get him back out there today. 127 00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: He's a guy that works really, really hard. Um, he's 128 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: definitely someone we've can look forward to getting out there 129 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: on the field with us, you know, some team perspective again, 130 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: we'll build him up a little bit as well. You'll 131 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 1: see a little bit more from X Man, you know, 132 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: the next couple of days ago from Sae Kwon terms 133 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 1: some team and competitive things. We're excited to get him 134 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: out there, and I know he's anxiously out there as well. 135 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: Show you list you know in in that you know, well, 136 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 1: he's a physical presence. He's got a pass rush ability 137 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 1: from his size and his speed really kind of more 138 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 1: speed to power type guy, but in terms of holding 139 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: the edge, playing with extension, shed and blocks, actually plays 140 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: more to this physical bill which is really power and 141 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: anchor at the point of attack. So that's really his 142 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,920 Speaker 1: physical skill setting. Not that I working to develop more 143 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: things in that. He's a guy that's helped on the 144 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: kicking game. He's had roles on defense, So we're gonna 145 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 1: look at him involved and everything he did. Are you 146 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: gonna break up Saturday ones go for fifteen plays or anything. No, 147 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: we haven't made a final decision, not yet, and a 148 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 1: lot of that will come into how the next couple 149 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: of days go. That's not looking at in terms of 150 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: do we have to go out there and punish someone 151 00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: at some point. We want to see how practic goes 152 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: next few days. I always says the priority is still 153 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: you know, for me, is to treat this more like 154 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: a traditional game four. And when I say that, it's 155 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 1: more of a make sure all the players that we 156 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: have to really evaluate get evaluation. And because the rules 157 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: this year, we have to cut five guys, you know, 158 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: after the jet skame. I want to make sure that 159 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 1: we don't make any decisions to impact are or their 160 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: future without a proper evaluation. The other way that you 161 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: kind of just answered the question I was about that, 162 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 1: But is it safe to assume sake one won't play 163 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: on Saturday, one will not play, the second will take 164 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: two more guys, saying we talked earlier this string about 165 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 1: possibly the planned day to resign him. Yeah, so Nate's 166 00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: continue his rehab right now at home. He's been in 167 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: touch with our medical team regularly. You know, I'm not 168 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: going to go fully into his deal. I will say this. 169 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: You know, Nate obviously was competing for a spot on 170 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: the Olympic team. UM, the nature of Nate is he 171 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: doesn't know how to slow down. So there was a 172 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: point where he was kind of pushing, pushing, pushing his body, 173 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, he had to make a decision 174 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: at one point. Um he could talk more directly about it, 175 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: but obviously had to step away from the Olympics and 176 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,559 Speaker 1: you know, kind of focus more on a football season. 177 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 1: And he's in a point right now where he had 178 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: to kind of step back and kind of refocus on 179 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: the rehab process us instead of worrying about going Tokyo 180 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: for competition. But I know he's working hard. That's just 181 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,919 Speaker 1: what Neate is, how he's wired looking forward to getting 182 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 1: him and as soon as we get a chance to 183 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 1: get him back on actually getting back last one. Anybody, 184 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 1: what are you, ultimately, what do you want to see 185 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: from Sake one over these next couple of days, not 186 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: just physically, but just in terms of its outlook with 187 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 1: getting back on his knee. In terms of his outlook, 188 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: I think this guy's cacus is confidence maybe, and then 189 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 1: movement and stuff isn't. Yeah, Look, I don't have any 190 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: question with that. I think this guy has been doing 191 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: a lot of football movements. In fact, I know he 192 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: has and you know, I know he's a confidence and 193 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 1: where he's at, it's more important for us to really 194 00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: just make sure this guy's progressed on daily basis, that 195 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: we put him back into team activities, you know, eleven 196 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: on eleven, seven on seven. But he's a position that 197 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: you can go out there, operate at full speed and 198 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: protect himself.
