So no, A 23 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 3: lot of people in the lead around doing it. So 24 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 3: I feel like it's going it's going. 25 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: To still It's spread through the rest of the team 26 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: even last season. I mean you had I think Ronnie 27 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: Stanley this was my. 28 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 5: Favorite when Ronnie was hitting the I think it was 29 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 5: maybe like the Steelers bench. 30 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, he boxed them up. 31 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 4: He boxed up the pass rushing. 32 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, he can do it from whatever man like past 33 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 3: rushing a defensive line. 34 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: You are knocked down the. 35 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 3: Ball like so's it's going on for what position? 36 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 5: Well not be kind of has one too, he like 37 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 5: kind of draws the door and then kicks it down. Okay, yeah, yeah, 38 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 5: so it's kind of a similar line to it, but 39 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,560 Speaker 5: you don't do it all that often, like you save 40 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:38,959 Speaker 5: it like you're pretty selected ever use it. You don't 41 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 5: want to go crazy with it. We're pretty selective with it. 42 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 3: I feel like each reflectioning it's not like a celebration. 43 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 3: So when I get like I locked somebody up, like 44 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 3: if I'm pressing he can't get out for gym and 45 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 3: they throw the past break it up, like I just 46 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 3: put him in a box like the whole play. So 47 00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 3: I really don't like to use it like each play 48 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 3: because like each player, I didn't put him in the 49 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 3: box time I just catch up to find it out. 50 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 3: I feel like I use it. I use it as 51 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 3: a good at a good man. 52 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 5: It's almost like when you use it, it's almost like 53 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 5: when the ball doesn't come his direction. It's almost like 54 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 5: that's almost for a guy like you who can just 55 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 5: lock up some of these wide receivers, Like that's almost 56 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 5: the best play. If it doesn't even ball doesn't even 57 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 5: come towards you. 58 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, if it does come towards them where you get 59 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: a pick or something, then it turns into the coffin 60 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: to keep adding to it, keep adding to it has 61 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 1: any like wide receiver?

We are coming to 448 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 5: you from the Sekiek Studio. We also want to mention 449 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:20,119 Speaker 5: our partners with Draft King Sports book. They are an 450 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 5: official sports betting partner of the Baltimore Ravens Draft King 451 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 5: sports book. The Crown is Yours. So really enjoyed the 452 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 5: conversation with Nate. I think he's a guy that is 453 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 5: just gonna take a big step this year. It's interesting 454 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 5: to hear him say he's packed on, you know, ten 455 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 5: pounds of muscle and you know, just a guy that 456 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,199 Speaker 5: I think the sky really is the limit for him. 457 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 5: I think that he's got so much potential. We saw 458 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:44,159 Speaker 5: a glimpse of that last year. And I do not 459 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 5: at all think it's like hyperbole to say he could 460 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 5: be a pro bowler this year. I think that that 461 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 5: is it's hard for cornerbacks. 462 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 1: There's a lot of good corners in the league, but 463 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: he's one of them. Yeah, I mean there's not many 464 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: guys that are more talented than Nate uh. And so 465 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: I think that he's also a player that is just 466 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,440 Speaker 1: gonna continue to get better and better and better, you 467 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 1: know what I mean. Like as he just you know, 468 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: as you said, he's still developing his his body is 469 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: still developing, Like he's still in this process of finding 470 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,239 Speaker 1: exactly where he wants to be weight wise and all 471 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: those things, and but yeah, I think that he's gonna 472 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 1: play at a very high level for. 473 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:19,640 Speaker 4: The Ravens this year. 474 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: And and honestly, you know, you look at the Ravens 475 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: schedule and there's just great receivers everywhere. That's just how 476 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 1: it works in the NFL. And and even in this 477 00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: you know, we got DK Metcalf just came into the division, 478 00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase c Higgins resigned. You know, there's no shortage 479 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 1: of guys, and so Nate's gonna see a lot of 480 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 1: that action. He's gonna be really relied upon. Really is 481 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 1: it looks like the Ravens top outside corner, you know. 482 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that Marlin's gonna play a lot 483 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 1: in the slot this year and then cheataway. Ouzia will 484 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 1: be on the other side. But they it's kind of 485 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: the guy. 486 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 5: I think that as I look at the Ravens defense, 487 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 5: I think the ideal scenarios that it's basically, Okay, Nate 488 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:00,960 Speaker 5: just take away half the field and he's going to 489 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 5: be out there and just be a guy that can eliminate. 490 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 5: As a potential to eliminate half the field, Marlin could 491 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 5: play in the slot, move all over the place, and 492 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 5: you know, and then yeah, Cheetoh most likely is stepping 493 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:15,320 Speaker 5: into that spot from Brandon Stevens from last year. Also, 494 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 5: Jalen armor Davis is somebody who've seen here in these 495 00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 5: Ota practices. It was going into his fourth season, So 496 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 5: this is a big opportunity for him. Who's going to 497 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 5: challenge for reps and snaps there. But I think that like, 498 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 5: as you're looking at it, you just say, Okay, Nate, 499 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 5: you got this side of the field, and he can 500 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 5: go out there and play against number one wide receivers, 501 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 5: you can feel really good about that matchup. 502 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, absolutely, I mean yeah, from a talent standpoint, 503 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: he can stand toe to toe with any of those guys. Yeah, 504 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: And so it's he how he plays this season for 505 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 1: a Ravens secondary that, as we all know, struggled out 506 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 1: of the gates last year. But then you know, Nate 507 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: talked about weeks five, six seven when he kind of 508 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 1: was the turning point. Well, he was, Hey, that was 509 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,920 Speaker 1: kind of the turning point around that area for the 510 00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,119 Speaker 1: Ravens defense as a whole. So as Nate was for 511 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,119 Speaker 1: the solution exactly exactly. And so as Nate goes to 512 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,399 Speaker 1: a degree, is how this Ravens secondary is going to go. 513 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 5: Yeah. I totally agree with that, and I just it's 514 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 5: it's interesting to hear him say like he learned as 515 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 5: a rookie some of the some of like the soft 516 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 5: skills that are required as we talked about film, diet, nutrition, sleep, 517 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 5: all like all that kind of stuff that you don't 518 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 5: necessarily think of at top of mind, but it is 519 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 5: really important. And he learned that rookie year, and I 520 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 5: just think he's coming into this year and such a 521 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 5: such a better spot having that year of experience, and 522 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 5: I think that, uh, he's gonna have a great season. Obviously, 523 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,080 Speaker 5: he's got lofty goals. I mean ten, ten takeaways. It's 524 00:21:38,080 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 5: a big number. 525 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 1: I like the idea behind that that is, Yeah, so 526 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: that that would be pretty you land in the Pro Bowl. 527 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: He has ten takeaways, He's going to the Pro Bowl. 528 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 4: I can tell you that much. Yeah, by being Defensive 529 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 4: Player of the Year running. 530 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 5: Seriously, seriously, I don't think it's outside of the question. 531 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 5: So that'd be awesome to see that kind of fruition. 532 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 5: So we had another chance to watch Ota practice uh today, 533 00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 5: and you know, we want to give you some of 534 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 5: our takeaways a little bit of a different day compared 535 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 5: to the last OTA practice that we watched. Lamar Jackson 536 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 5: was not out there today, handful of other guys weren't, 537 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 5: but still really good attendance overall when you look at 538 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 5: it across the board. Also, after practice, had a chance 539 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 5: to talk with Todd Munkin and Za Flowers. So what 540 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 5: was the big thing that stood out to you in 541 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 5: watching and hear from those guys today? 542 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, really, I think it was mostly what was 543 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: set afterwards, and Todd Munkin was pretty clear that he 544 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 1: wants to get the ball to the Zay Flowers more 545 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,639 Speaker 1: this year. And now there's a lot of mouths feeding 546 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 1: this offense, but just going out there and saying like 547 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 1: Zay's an unbelievable player and we want him catching the 548 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,639 Speaker 1: ball more, that's noteworthy fantasy football. I'm sure managers are 549 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 1: going to be picking up on that. And so that 550 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: was pretty cool. I mean, the Ravens first homegrown Pro 551 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: Bowl wide receiver. He can do it all, and so 552 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,920 Speaker 1: even with the addition of DeAndre Hopkins, he's the featured 553 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:52,840 Speaker 1: guy and bait you know is gonna get his and 554 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,840 Speaker 1: all the tight ends and all that stuff. But it 555 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: was pretty clear hearing from TODM Monkin just how special 556 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,680 Speaker 1: he thinks say Flower is. Zay Flowers is going into 557 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:02,120 Speaker 1: year three. 558 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,399 Speaker 5: The thing about Zay is that he can beach in 559 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 5: so many different ways, Like they can use them underneath 560 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 5: some of the gadgety stuff, but they can also press 561 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 5: the ball down the field on deep shops. 562 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: Well, and that's kind of the where even Zay talked 563 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 1: about the room to grow is a little bit deeper 564 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 1: down the field, and that's always been part of his 565 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 1: game where I'm like, man, this guy's so fast, I'd 566 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: like to see more. Now, obviously he's not the size 567 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 1: of DeAndre Hopkins. He's not the big body, go up 568 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: contested ball, you know guy. But if he can and 569 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: Zay feels also like that's the part where he can 570 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: still unlock his game is hitting more of those big 571 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 1: play opportunities. And if he does that, who it's it's 572 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: gonna be real big headache for defenses. 573 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 5: One of the things I remember when The Raven, when 574 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 5: Todd Munkin came here, one of his main points on 575 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 5: his first day on the job was I want defenses 576 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 5: to have to defend every blade of grass, and I 577 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 5: want to really be I want to be a space team, 578 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 5: get the ball to players in space, and so you 579 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 5: stretch out the field and you force defenses to cover 580 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 5: the entire width and length of the field, and adding 581 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 5: the deep shot component to the offense overall with the 582 00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 5: Rave has had plenty of deep shots last year. But 583 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 5: also you add to the equation with Zay in the mix, 584 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 5: and I think you add the outside game with DeAndre 585 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 5: Hopkins a little bit more of the back shoulder. 586 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 4: Stuff, yep, test to catch sideline, yes, Like so. 587 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 5: Now you have and Rashond Bateman can do that really 588 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 5: well too. But the Ravens are so good I think 589 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 5: over the middle of the field. They're good with Zay 590 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 5: coming out of the backfield in creative ways. But now 591 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 5: you add, like if you can get eight yards easy 592 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 5: to DeAndre Hopkins along the sidelines, that just opens up 593 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 5: things even more over the middle. And so I think 594 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 5: that that's going to be really a focus for this offense, 595 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:37,880 Speaker 5: is just finding ways to get the ball to guys 596 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 5: in space and defend the entire length of the field. 597 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 5: And also I said all that didn't even mention the 598 00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 5: running game. So like you do all that and then 599 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,399 Speaker 5: and then you also can just turn a hand the 600 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 5: ball to the big fellow and let Derek Hennery go 601 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 5: to work. 602 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: Yep, yep, absolutely, And I think also was great to 603 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: hear from Zay Flowers that his knee is totally behind 604 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 1: him so that he feels one hundred percent limitations. 605 00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 2: Uh. 606 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: You know, obviously that knocked him out for the playoffs 607 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 1: last year, which I think people don't talk about enough. 608 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 1: Actually he is the now. The Ravens were very healthy 609 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: last year overall, but the fact that he lost a 610 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: Pro Bowl wide receiver going into the playoffs was a 611 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 1: big deal. And and so you know, great to hear 612 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 1: that he's back on the field and feeling great. 613 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 4: He did. 614 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,359 Speaker 1: However, I will say fans might be disappointed about this 615 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 1: save Flowers did say I'm not going to the Olympics 616 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: basically basically said I played professional football, not too interested 617 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: in the whole Olympics thing. You would have been a 618 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:33,360 Speaker 1: first round pick, you would have been a high pick 619 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 1: for the Olympics. 620 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:34,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. 621 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 5: I think he would have been for that flag. Every 622 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,399 Speaker 5: team gets one player that can go and Jay I 623 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 5: think would have been hot, And of course Lamar would 624 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 5: be very high on that. 625 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,200 Speaker 1: Lamar has said that he also doesn't think that he 626 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 1: would play, so we're down the top two guys. 627 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 5: Kyle Hamilton is indicated that he might want to. 628 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 4: That's true, he would be a really. 629 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: High I could see Isaiah likely playing. You would also 630 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:56,399 Speaker 1: be pretty darn good. 631 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:58,919 Speaker 5: Isaiah likely had a really nice catch. He just continues 632 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 5: to impress. He had a really nice cat today's practice 633 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 5: from Cooper Rush. You know, I like going back to practice. 634 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 5: I think it's good to get Cooper Rush, you know, 635 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:08,879 Speaker 5: some some snaps and reps like we haven't seen him. Like, 636 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 5: that's good opportunity for him to run with the ones 637 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 5: and see just to build chemistry with these targets. You know, 638 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:18,479 Speaker 5: certainly hope that Lamar Jackson is healthy, of course all 639 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 5: the season long, but it's a backup quarterbacks is an 640 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,720 Speaker 5: important position, so I think it's good for him to 641 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 5: just kind of get his feet under him in this offense. 642 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I definitely agree. And Todd Munkin talked about 643 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 1: him after practice. Obviously a different skill set than Lamar's, 644 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: but a guy who you know, with the experience, they 645 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 1: really feel confident that he'll pick up this offense pretty quickly, 646 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,119 Speaker 1: and really, you know, he's gonna get a lot of 647 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 1: preseason action because the Ravens have not played Lamar Jackson 648 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 1: at all. So yeah, I think it's a good thing 649 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 1: for Cooper Rush to kind of get those those reps 650 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:47,320 Speaker 1: like you're talking about. 651 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 652 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:51,440 Speaker 5: Then the other just not from practices, is kicking competitions underway. Yeah, 653 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 5: we're gonna get a chance to see here. It's either 654 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 5: two rookies and Tyler Loop and John Hoyland. Loop of 655 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 5: course made a six round pick and Hoyland undrafted. These 656 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:01,359 Speaker 5: these guys are going to battle it out of the 657 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 5: course of the spring and summer and see who ends 658 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 5: up winning that job. 659 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,120 Speaker 1: It went six for six today each with three attempts, 660 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:10,359 Speaker 1: and so they were rotating kickers today. We saw both 661 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: rookie kickers kick the ball. 662 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,040 Speaker 4: So six for six. 663 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: It's a good start in front of reporters, and yeah, 664 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 1: that was good. Another note for me, Jalen Armor Davis. 665 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: We mentioned him. I think you know, don't forget about 666 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,200 Speaker 1: him in this cornerback rotation. Cheeto was not practicing again. 667 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,880 Speaker 1: We didn't see him last week during OTAs because of illness. 668 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 1: John Harball said he was not out there again today, 669 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: but so Jalen Arma Davis got a lot of run 670 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 1: time with the starting defense and made a nice plague 671 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 1: broke up a pass intended for DeAndre Hopkins in the 672 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: end zone. And you know me, I don't know if 673 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 1: there's a bigger stand Jalen armor Davis stand than me. 674 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 1: I just think the guy can play, and he has 675 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:54,120 Speaker 1: to stay healthy. But I think he's a professional guy 676 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 1: and man, if he can stay on the field, I 677 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:58,159 Speaker 1: think that he. 678 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 4: Could push Cheeto, you know, for reps. I don't know 679 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 4: that it's going to be. 680 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: You know, Cheeto is playing one hundred percent of the 681 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: of the reps out there at outside corner. I think 682 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 1: that obviously, Marlon if you're only running with two corners, 683 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:13,280 Speaker 1: so he could be outside. But Jalener rmber Davis could 684 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: be a key piece on this defense. 685 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 4: Look a big year for him. Year four. 686 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 5: It is ye or four for him, different players. But 687 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 5: I go back to when Jalen Arbor Davis was drafted. 688 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 5: At the time, the Raves had Anthony Averrett cornerback from 689 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 5: Alabama who had a very similar trajectory to what Jalen 690 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 5: Arbor Davis had. Yep, so much so that that Jalen 691 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 5: said at that point, like as a rookie. People used 692 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 5: to tell me all the time when I was at 693 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 5: Alabama how much we reminded each other, reminded people of 694 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,320 Speaker 5: each other. And then like their paths at Alabama were 695 00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 5: similar where it took a little while to get on 696 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 5: the field, and they got on the field and played well. 697 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 5: Anthony Averrett had his best season and his last season. 698 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 5: They're just starting job. 699 00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 4: You know, Lenn left in front agency, got a nice contract. 700 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 5: But like, could that same thing happened to Jalen Arbor? 701 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 5: Davis would not rule that out. I think that, like, hey, 702 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,920 Speaker 5: the history could repeat itself here with an Alabama cornerback. 703 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 5: You know, they know each other well, so root for 704 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 5: that to be the case. And I think he has 705 00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 5: a potential and it's really been injuries that have held 706 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 5: him back. But he's got a lot of ability and 707 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 5: it'd be awesome to see him be able to stay healthy, 708 00:29:11,880 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 5: put her all together this year and and carve out 709 00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 5: a nice role for himself on this defense. 710 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 4: Yep, absolutely well. 711 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: Two more days of practice will be open to reporters 712 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: during OTAs here in this second week, Garrett and cliff Don, 713 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 1: we'll be bringing you all of the breakdowns from those practices. 714 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 4: Thank you for listening. 715 00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:30,959 Speaker 1: As always, you can reach us at the lounge at 716 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 1: ravenst NFL dot net and we'll be back with you 717 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 1: later this week.
