Speaker 5: Do you have any stories about Chef the dog he

00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 5: Do you ever tell you about that one? What is

00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 5: Chef My Dogs by Jerry?

12
00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:35,839

Speaker 5: But for Youandy, does I have any feel like? I

14
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 5: know it doesn't plug field this way, but being the

15
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 5: longest tenured guy here, man, I mean, is that something

16
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 5: you recognize and doesn't feel different?

17
00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 6: Uh?

18
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 4: You know, it's kind of yes and no, And in

19
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 4: a lot of ways, I feel like I've I've been

20
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 4: here for a while. I like you said, I'm the

21
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 4: most tenured guy on the team, But I still come

22
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 4: in with the same attitude that I had my rookie year,

23
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 4: where I'm just trying to take it one kick at

24
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 4: a time and get better each and every day just

25
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,839
Speaker 4: a little bit, and keep the main things the main things.

26
00:01:07,880 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 6: You know, I've said this.

27
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: Before, the the.

28
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 4: The idea of focusing on the action and not the consequence,

29
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,320
Speaker 4: and not just in a given kick, but a given day,

30
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 4: a given week, a given year.

31
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 7: Uh.

32
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 4: Just you know, being where my feed are has been

33
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 4: a focus of mine for a while now. So yeah,

34
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 4: I feel like the most tenured guy on the team,

35
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 4: and I'll just take that as I have experience in

36
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:36,119
Speaker 4: a lot of different environments that different stadiums, field conditions, personnel.

37
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: Whoa jeez, I'm just happy to be here.

38
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 4: But at the exact same time, I feel like a

39
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 4: rookie and I'm I'm just getting started.

40
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 2: Just like I said, you're you're.

41
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 8: A happy guy that they were able to find Tyler

42
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 8: to stuck in for Nick. Can you kind of expect

43
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 8: what he's done to fit into that detailed machine?

44
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 2: Yeah?

45
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 4: Those first of all, continuing to think about Nick and

46
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 4: what he's going through. You know, Nick's our boy, and

47
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 4: it's it's tough to you know, see somebody that uh not.

48
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 4: You know, we don't just work closely together, you know,

49
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 4: we're good friends. So to see what you know he's

50
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 4: going through and to to hear hear from him, and

51
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 4: you know know that he's got, as of right now,

52
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,760
Speaker 4: a pretty long road ahead. Uh that's a tough deal.

53
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 4: So we're definitely thinking about him. But uh, you know,

54
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,800
Speaker 4: at the same time, as it always has been and

55
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 4: will be in this business, it's there. You know, you

56
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 4: got to buy into the next man up mentality, And

57
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 4: for us, we're really lucky that Tyler was available. I

58
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 4: don't keep tabs on who the free agent or rookie

59
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:50,359
Speaker 4: long snappers are out there, but the fact that Tyler

60
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 4: was available, we were able to bring him in and

61
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 4: sign him. Tyler's don an excellent job in this first

62
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 4: wave of camp, and we we had every expectation that

63
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 4: he would be doing a great job. I mean, he's

64
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 4: a former Pro Bowl caliber long snapper and a current

65
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 4: Pro Bowl caliber long snapper, and we we would all

66
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 4: say the same thing. We got great people around us,

67
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 4: starting with Chris Randy TJ. Sam Cook coaching us all up.

68
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 4: You know, I've said this before, I'm a system kicker

69
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 4: and the ball kicks itself, but it applies to all

70
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 4: of the positions in the specialist world. The long snapper,

71
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,960
Speaker 4: the holder, the punter. We're all part of intricate, detailed,

72
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 4: well thought out system that if we just buy into

73
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 4: what we're being coached to do, we will have success,

74
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 4: and Tyler's doing a great job of that so far.

75
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 4: Kind of a nod kicking question for yet, how big

76
00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 4: is it kind of scheem to have a shot based

77
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 4: out there.

78
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 2: I'm a field the guy.

79
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 4: It's great to see with Shod working. Obviously, I'm not

80
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 4: the head coach, and I can't comment on injuries because

81
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 4: I'd like to think in my you know, my senior

82
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 4: years here that I'm I'm a little wiser than that.

83
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 4: But I will say it's really good to see him

84
00:03:58,200 --> 00:03:59,760
Speaker 4: out there. It's good to see Patrick Card out there

85
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 4: work as well, running around, you know, not just as

86
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 4: teammates but friends, you know, seeing them back on the

87
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 4: field and seeing them, you know, get to work and

88
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 4: doing what makes them happy.

89
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 2: That's uh, you know, that's that's that's good for all

90
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:11,720
Speaker 2: of us.

91
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 9: Yes, you've got one of the top kickers in the

92
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,239
Speaker 9: lead for a while down how do you keep it fresh?

93
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 3: But bullet mate to come in here and try to

94
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 3: somehow getting better than the.

95
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 4: Already Yeah all right, So last year around this time,

96
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 4: harbes Uh kind of challenged us to post on the

97
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 4: board and the like the bulletin board in the locker room,

98
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 4: like first thing you see when you walk in, put

99
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,559
Speaker 4: a picture up or maybe a phrase or a saying

100
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 4: of what's your why? You know, a lot of guys

101
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 4: put up a picture of their family, or a lot

102
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 4: of guys put up a picture of like a Lombardi trophy,

103
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 4: and you know you ask, like, essentially, like, what's kind

104
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 4: of keeping me motivated? I think for all of us

105
00:04:55,080 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 4: are why? Is a collective yearn for that championship experience

106
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 4: and bringing that to a town that deserves a championship

107
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:09,599
Speaker 4: unlike any other. And at the same time, you know,

108
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 4: our whis don't just stop there my why? It might

109
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 4: be something different every single day.

110
00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 6: It might be.

111
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 4: You know, cementing ourselves as the most elite kicking battery

112
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 4: that's ever stepped foot onto a football field. And then

113
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,239
Speaker 4: the next day it might just be you know, getting

114
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 4: a chance to see the guys and sit around the

115
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 4: breakfast table or the launch table in the cafeteria and

116
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 4: have a good conversation. But the way we get to

117
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 4: elevate all of those experiences and share them together is

118
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 4: by working our tails off, taking it a day at

119
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 4: a time and ultimately hoisting the Lombardi at the end

120
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 4: of the year. And I think that's what we're all that,

121
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 4: you know, that's what we're all working toward, and that's

122
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 4: what we got our eye.

123
00:05:51,760 --> 00:06:07,479
Speaker 8: On the process that care in that process. That's sure.

124
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 4: That's a great question. I'm not going to answer it

125
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,360
Speaker 4: fully because I don't want to give away trade secrets.

126
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,040
Speaker 4: But the way we operate as a field goal kicking unit, uh,

127
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 4: we emphasize being aggressive and intentional in everything that we do,

128
00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 4: starting with the snapper. So for me, if I can

129
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 4: see and feel the confidence of our long snapper before

130
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 4: the you know, before he even put you know, gets

131
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 4: in his stance and puts his hands on the ball,

132
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 4: and as Jordan is getting set up, I can just

133
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,360
Speaker 4: feel that we're gonna make this kick. It all starts

134
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,119
Speaker 4: with what we do out here on the practice field.

135
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 4: The intricate little details that I'm not necessarily going to

136
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 4: get fully into, but knowing that we work day in

137
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 4: and day out on those things, it kind of helps,

138
00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 4: you know, the whole process becomes streamlined toward our main

139
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 4: our main goal, and that's just making kicks.

140
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 2: Four years for years, the specialist Creto, the ball wolf back.

141
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 2: Last year we've played around with fuld back two point home.

142
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:11,920
Speaker 4: What would you like to call this group on the

143
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 4: air of this year? We haven't really thought about it

144
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,920
Speaker 4: too much. I think, you know, check in with me.

145
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:18,960
Speaker 4: Maybe next week I'll I'll have an answer for you,

146
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 4: or maybe not. I don't really know. I'm less worried

147
00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 4: about that, more worried about just smashing kicks. So well,

148
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,480
Speaker 4: we'll go that right, Watch out for that spider right there.

149
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 2: All right?

150
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:28,360
Speaker 9: You got.

151
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: Next up you'll hear from punter Jordan Stout as he

152
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: enters his second season.

153
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 2: I thought this year was pick novack camp. That's last year.

154
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,560
Speaker 2: You know, I've been doing that process for you.

155
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 10: Yeah, something I really like to do in the off

156
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 10: season is get around as many other punters as I

157
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 10: can to see where I'm at.

158
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:48,679
Speaker 2: So it was great though.

159
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:51,000
Speaker 4: Talking about you.

160
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 11: I did last year at this time, there's a lot

161
00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 11: of tears that how much better.

162
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 2: Was starting your aspect.

163
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,040
Speaker 10: I'm not going to do my own horn, and I

164
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 10: won't much. I'm pretty humble, but I'm a really good holder.

165
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 2: And you know Sam Sam Sam was great.

166
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:11,280
Speaker 12: He taught me a lot.

167
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 6: Randy as well. So it's been great that.

168
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 10: No, I don't know if that helped as much as

169
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 10: just taking a little break and then coming back and

170
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 10: I was just way better. Somehow, must have taken a

171
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 10: lot of creatine.

172
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 8: Randy says that.

173
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:28,160
Speaker 11: He thinks Hunter takes the biggest three between the season

174
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 11: one and the season two.

175
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 5: Do you do you.

176
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,080
Speaker 2: Do you see that coming? And where do you think

177
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 2: we'll see the well?

178
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 10: As a punter, I think what we do is all

179
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,920
Speaker 10: about confidence, and I think my confidence last year was lacking.

180
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 10: And I feel like I'm extremely confident now because you know,

181
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 10: talking about one of those camps in the off season,

182
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 10: and I went and I did really well, and I

183
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,719
Speaker 10: confidence comes from preparation, and I prepared my butt off,

184
00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 10: so I think it will.

185
00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 3: Why did you Why do you think you slacking next year?

186
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,560
Speaker 10: I think it's just a new thing. You know, in college,

187
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 10: I was doing phil goals, kickoffs and punts. You know,

188
00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:03,320
Speaker 10: if I had a bad punt in a game, I

189
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 10: wasn't gonna dwell on it because I was gonna have

190
00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 10: a field goal the next drive. So now only focusing

191
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,360
Speaker 10: on punting. It's like if I have a bad punt

192
00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 10: in the past, it would affect me and you know,

193
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 10: I just have to have a one kick mentality and

194
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 10: go out on the next and hit a good balls.

195
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 8: A new staffer, Nick.

196
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 10: Well, it sucks it Nicks out because we love Nick.

197
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,719
Speaker 10: Nick's a great snapper. But Tyler picked up right where

198
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,439
Speaker 10: he left off and he's doing an incredible job. He's

199
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 10: he's a good guy and he's he's a great snapper,

200
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:37,840
Speaker 10: so we're happy to have him.

201
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 12: Good Jordan, your guys are I know you're former DNY Lyons.

202
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 4: No official AP pole yet, but the coaches pull at

203
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 4: at state at number seven. If you talked to any

204
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 4: former teammates, anybody out there.

205
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 10: I have not talked to him yet, but I think

206
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 10: I think we're gonna make a national championship run this year.

207
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 10: That team is stacked so excited for that. Well, you're

208
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 10: on that national championship gro Yeah for me?

209
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 12: You already here first. Now we'll hear from new long

210
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 12: snapper Tyler.

211
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 2: How's it going Tyler Rott long snapper?

212
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: Can you talk about how you ended up laying here

213
00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: and what the process of change?

214
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 7: Sure?

215
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,440
Speaker 11: Yeah, My contract last year with the Seahawks expired after

216
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 11: I was hurt for the whole season, and really I

217
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:32,600
Speaker 11: got cleared in like January, mid January from my injury,

218
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 11: and from that point on it was just you know,

219
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,880
Speaker 11: training like usual, waiting for you know, a call from

220
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 11: whoever it was. And and I didn't think it was

221
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 11: gonna take as long as it did, obviously or honestly.

222
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:51,760
Speaker 11: And I was actually at we were hosting my son's

223
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 11: third birthday party when my agent called and said, hey,

224
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 11: we got your call. You're going down to Baltimore in

225
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 11: like two days. I was like, all right, well, let

226
00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 11: me finish this birthday party and cut the cake and

227
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,959
Speaker 11: then I'll pack up and start driving. But I was

228
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 11: really I was really planning on being somewhere, regardless of

229
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 11: where it was, it didn't really matter.

230
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:13,760
Speaker 2: At that point. I knew I was ready, I knew

231
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 2: I was.

232
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,719
Speaker 11: Healthy, and now once I got the call to come here,

233
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,679
Speaker 11: it was obviously I knew what kind of system, as

234
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 11: has Tuck alluded to, I was stepping into, and the

235
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 11: excellence that they expect and have come to expect and

236
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 11: have experienced.

237
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 2: And and I.

238
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,280
Speaker 11: Knew coming in that my job was to make that

239
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 11: system run perfectly.

240
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 2: And it's always been my goal as a snapper since

241
00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:38,839
Speaker 2: day one.

242
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 11: Anyways, Yeah, my goal is to come in and make

243
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 11: Jordan's job as easy as possible, so that Justin's job

244
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 11: is as easy as possible. And that's that's the whole

245
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 11: goal of a snapper is just they don't hopefully they

246
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 11: don't have to really do anything but put the ball

247
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 11: down and then kick it.

248
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 9: Back to.

249
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:07,600
Speaker 2: Well.

250
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,199
Speaker 11: I might be one of the rare ones that started

251
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 11: in Little league. I actually used to kick. I used

252
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 11: to toe kick, and then one of my best friends

253
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 11: in fifth grade was a soccer player, and he came

254
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:23,840
Speaker 11: over and started kicking field goals for us, and my

255
00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 11: only way to stay involved was I said, Hey, I'll

256
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 11: try snapping.

257
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 2: I was playing other positions.

258
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,320
Speaker 11: I played tight end through high school and through college,

259
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 11: and uh snapped through high school and in college, but

260
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 11: probably never really thought about snapping being the route to

261
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 11: the NFL until senior year of college.

262
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,640
Speaker 2: I was lucky in high school.

263
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 11: I had a coach, Carl Johnson, that he had coached

264
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 11: special teams and snappers at the University of Houston before

265
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 11: he was our high school coach, and he actually knew

266
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,080
Speaker 11: the fundamentals of snapping, and so that was where my

267
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 11: foundation was laid. And from there it was all for

268
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 11: the most part self taught and tinkering and figuring out

269
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 11: what works and a benefit and I guess maybe a

270
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 11: benefit looking back in hindsight is that when I was

271
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 11: playing tight end in college and snapping, I never had

272
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:21,679
Speaker 11: time to think about snapping. So I think that just

273
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 11: instilled the confidence that I carried to this day in

274
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 11: snapping that I never got to warm up on the

275
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 11: sideline before a kick or for a punt. I just

276
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 11: went out there and ripped it back there and didn't

277
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 11: think anything of it. So obviously I put more thought

278
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:37,360
Speaker 11: into it now, But I think it's just it's been

279
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 11: a ability that I've had that I didn't really take

280
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,960
Speaker 11: full appreciation of until I knew I could make it

281
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 11: as a snapper in the NFL.

282
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,080
Speaker 2: I kind of the long snappers an for the trips.

283
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 8: Didn't do any of that stuff and snapping in the.

284
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,240
Speaker 3: Meeting car or anything.

285
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 11: No, I never wanted to break any windows.

286
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 2: You know, that's stuff cool. It's never been I'm not.

287
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 11: I mean, if you if you look at my social media,

288
00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 11: I'm not posting a lot of stuff.

289
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 2: It's just not my personality to be really out there.

290
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:10,880
Speaker 11: So you know, I'm not gonna say I haven't tried

291
00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 11: to snap into a trash can or something every now

292
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 11: and then, but hit the crossbar maybe, But I find

293
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 11: that a lot of times that actually might hurt your

294
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 11: snapping ability the job you're trying to do when you

295
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,640
Speaker 11: start messing around with that stuff, even though it might

296
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 11: be cool. But I'm here to snap, I guess so.

297
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:32,800
Speaker 6: For a long time.

298
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 11: On the shoulder injury in the Coppers.

299
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 6: Now back to houses, how.

300
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 2: Hit the colt was that was coming back and had, Well, yeah,

301
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 2: it is tough.

302
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 11: I think a lot of you know, I don't know

303
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 11: what happened with you know, the end of my tenure

304
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 11: in Seattle, but I think a lot of a lot

305
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 11: of coaches and front office and medical might see that

306
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 11: as like a death sentence for a snapper. But you know,

307
00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 11: I saw a great surge and I had a great

308
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,160
Speaker 11: team of athletic trainers.

309
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 2: I was back.

310
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:10,120
Speaker 11: Quicker than expected and stronger, and I honestly felt coming

311
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:13,600
Speaker 11: off of a year of missing a full season, as

312
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,720
Speaker 11: bad as that is, I had a full season first

313
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:21,600
Speaker 11: time since you know, seventh grade, a full year to

314
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 11: recover and be healthy and be strong and be ready

315
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,760

316
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 11: be here or the next team, whatever it's going to be.

317
00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 11: And I realized that which was that was the toughest

318
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 11: part about being hurt last year was not the physical

319
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 11: part of it.

320
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 2: It was the mental part.

321
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,320
Speaker 11: Understanding that I got my job in Seattle six years

322
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 11: ago when I filled in for a hurt snapper, so

323
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 11: I knew exactly what was at risk, and I didn't

324
00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 11: think it was going to happen.

325
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 2: I did my best where it wasn't going to.

326
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 11: But it's the way the cards were dealt, and I'm

327
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,240
Speaker 11: here now to make the most of this, to make

328
00:15:58,280 --> 00:16:00,600

375
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,640
Speaker 7: and like I speak to everybody and stuff like that.

376
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,720

378
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:43,400
Speaker 6: And shoot, I was just I was just feeled with happiness. Honestly,

379
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:45,880
Speaker 6: when the coaches talk.

380
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,480
Speaker 9: About you, they say, so this guy's he's every time

381
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 9: he comes back to the ability, he's better than he wanted.

382
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 10: To listening when he left the experience coming into this season.

383
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,840
Speaker 8: Is there a specific thing you wanted to work on?

384
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 5: I mean, how are you better now of yew Worth there?

385
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 7: If I had to point out one thing, I would

386
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 7: just say, it's my confidence in myself.

387
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:18,479
Speaker 6: Like I'm a pretty confident guy, but and for some reason,

388
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 6: like yeah, I.

389
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 7: It's honestly hard to really put anything on it. But

390
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 7: coming into the season and during the off season, my

391
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 7: thing was working on past rush because without Calais, you know,

392
00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 7: there's a lot of past or snaps up for grabs,

393
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,359
Speaker 7: and I'm trying to be one of the guys that

394
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,520
Speaker 7: gets some getting some of them. So my main focus

395
00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:48,720
Speaker 7: was just passed rush over the all season. Yeah, yeah, whynot.

396
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 7: I'd be a fool not to, you know. But yeah,

397
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 7: and Chuck. Every day he got something for the guys

398
00:19:56,640 --> 00:19:59,119
Speaker 7: in the pastor's department, and I mean he's been a

399
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,679
Speaker 7: great help for everybody, for the whole room. Honestly, he

400
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 7: makes us better as a unit, and we're gonna continue

401
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 7: to grow with him. I think.

402
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 2: In Washington here we don't.

403
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:12,679
Speaker 1: Have to talk about where that.

404
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 6: Uh. For me, it's from my mom.

405
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 7: I grew up in a single parent home for the

406
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:24,560
Speaker 7: most part, and shoot, I watched my mom grind through

407
00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:29,200
Speaker 7: everything by herself. So I come in and I don't

408
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 7: I don't allow myself to have excuses. You know, my

409
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:37,719
Speaker 7: faith in God is really really high, so I know

410
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:42,920
Speaker 7: that if I remain faithful and continue to work, He's

411
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:43,880
Speaker 7: gonna bless me and.

412
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 6: Shoot, he'll just continue to bless me. You know. So

413
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 6: I don't care about any time limits.

414
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,399
Speaker 7: I don't care how long it takes, as long as

415

471
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 9: You know, a guy's played eighty five games Harvard grad,

472
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:03,560
Speaker 9: really good long snapper, pro bowler. So we're fortunate that

473
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,280
Speaker 9: Tyler was there for us, and he's fitting in really

474
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,399
Speaker 9: really well, and we're blessed that we have it.

475
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,320
Speaker 3: And Justin's happy every day, which makes me happy.

476
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 5: Okay, when you're he worked with Justin obviously able to

477
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 5: know his act wades and we're going lads for times

478
00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 5: like this in the spring and then summer, what do

479
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 5: you work on because a lot of people go with

480
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 5: a second Justin couples ad, what does he need to.

481
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 2: Work on because those that you think that is so.

482
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 3: I always talk about Justin as not only.

483
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,560
Speaker 9: Did we start together all these years, nobody has seen

484
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:40,520
Speaker 9: him kick every kick like I've seen him kick. So

485
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 9: the great part about Justin is he always wants to

486
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 9: get better Jamison, And there will be times on field

487
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 9: three that it's just not going the way he wants it,

488
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 9: you know, and will say to me or say to Sam,

489
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 9: hey are you saying anything or what are you saying?

490
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 9: And he's always open because he gets better every day,

491
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,040
Speaker 9: wants to get better every day, and we have a

492
00:24:57,040 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 9: great relationship and we watch film.

493
00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 3: We watch film every day. And that's the thing.

494
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 9: It's you know, you think a guy like him, you know,

495
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 9: he just comes to work. Well, he comes to work

496
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,840
Speaker 9: and he works and we watch film every day.

497
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,440
Speaker 3: We work on field three every day. It's he gets

498
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 3: better every day.

499
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,919
Speaker 9: And if femus is a sixty five yarder, he's pissed

500
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 9: in practice, which we know we see the biggest stretch

501
00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 9: from I've always believed this is my thirty second year

502
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 9: coaching football, twentieth in the NFL, and that jump for

503
00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,840
Speaker 9: specialist from year one to year two is usually the

504
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 9: biggest why because in college they're asked to do punts, kickoffs,

505
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 9: field goals, so they really can't sharpen their craft on

506
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 9: just one thing. So you come here and and now

507
00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 9: you create a system of practice where you can do

508
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 9: the repetition over and over again.

509
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 3: His practice is great. But this is why I like

510
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:55,960
Speaker 3: about Jordan, and the dude smiles all the time. He's happy.

511
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,280
Speaker 9: He really likes to get better, and he comes to

512
00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,480
Speaker 9: work with me and Sam Cook every day and he's

513
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 9: a sponge for information. And what I if you really

514
00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,120
Speaker 9: look at what Jordan his holding is tremendous, best holder

515
00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 9: in the NFL. Right now, Okay, you watch watch him

516
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,560
Speaker 9: on the field. Ball gets down fast, all right, He's outstanding.

517
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,639
Speaker 9: So I think the punting will continue to increase his

518
00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 9: abilities to put ball the balls inside the ten, all right,

519
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 9: and get good turnover balls.

520
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 3: So we love the progress that he's making.

521
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,959
Speaker 11: When you, guys, Jordan, we're office talked about just how

522
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,280
Speaker 11: mean some of those punts that are here before you

523
00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 11: saw it feel a whole lot.

524
00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 2: And here was I just kind of trying to bottle

525
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 2: the backs. He tried to get better that very.

526
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 6: Actually the ball play the part.

527
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,159
Speaker 9: Yeah, so you know in college it was just he

528
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,520
Speaker 9: could kick it as far as he could, right, And here,

529
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 9: as you know, we're a directional punting team. Uh. But

530
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,639
Speaker 9: in practice every day he's hitting five oh's, five to

531
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 9: two s, five threes. But as you know, we pride

532
00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 9: ourselves in coverage, and we've pride ourselves of the punting

533
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 9: knowing where the ball ball is going to be. And

534
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:05,560
Speaker 9: and as to me, as he gets older and more mature,

535
00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 9: he gets more relaxed.

536
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:08,800
Speaker 3: All right, he continues to get up and through the ball.

537
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:11,120
Speaker 3: So you're going to see some of them. You'll see

538
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:12,359
Speaker 3: some of them probably on Saturday night.

539
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 8: So again, if we heard about Michael Felts all the

540
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:21,240
Speaker 8: lats he takes in the point, is there a limit

541
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,360
Speaker 8: to that other kicks per day you want Justin take?

542
00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:25,000
Speaker 3: That's a real good question.

543
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,960
Speaker 9: So it's what I want and what Justin won. So

544
00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 9: there's two separate things, right. Yeah, we know each other now,

545
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 9: and you know he kicks three or four days a week,

546
00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 9: and he knows when he's had enough. But you know,

547
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:42,639
Speaker 9: it can range anywhere between thirty kicks one day and

548
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 9: sixty kicks another.

549
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 3: It depends what the day of the week do we

550
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 3: have a game that day.

551
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 6: So is there any.

552
00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:53,960
Speaker 5: Technique wise things that he changes even from like last

553
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,840
Speaker 5: year or this year anything like, or does he try

554
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 5: to maintain pretty much the same technique.

555
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 9: As if you remember in his sixty minutes interview he

556
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 9: talked about hitting the ball in the sweet spot, which

557
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 9: is one inch blow the middle of the football. He

558
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 9: makes sure he hits every kick at that sweet spot

559
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:12,840
Speaker 9: over and over and over again. So there was there's

560
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 9: never a rehashing or retooling of the technique. You know

561
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 9: what I mean, it's let me hit that ball on

562
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 9: the same spot every time.

563
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,000
Speaker 3: And that's what he does, and he does so.

564
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 5: Well, and they can get, you know, over and older.

565
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 5: Sometimes you don't become a point with the leg strength

566
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 5: and everything you've never ever talked about just because it

567
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 5: seems like you he good. Does there become a point

568
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:35,879
Speaker 5: where he does have to kind of you know.

569
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 3: One comes the best, Like Justin.

570
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,400
Speaker 9: They're talking about your leg strength here and I said,

571
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,959
Speaker 9: you got strongest leg in the National Football League.

572
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 3: There we go.

573
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 9: Any other questions about Justin's leg strength's your son?

574
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 10: Has there been any competitive trash happy but you know,

575
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:55,600
Speaker 10: has there been a competitive channer?

576
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,480
Speaker 9: So when the When the schedule for preseason schedule came out,

577
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 9: it was a little family chatter back and forth, but

578
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 9: I'm really proud of what Tyler has done as assistant

579
00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 9: special teams coach there. It's pre season, so I expect

580

581
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 9: and I know he's going to get his guys ready

582
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:16,960
Speaker 9: to play.

583
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 2: Uh.

584
00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 9: But I'm just proud that my son's coaching the National
