1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: Did these two days sharpen you did. Do you feel

2
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: that they helped you to the.

3
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:05,600
Speaker 2: Improve you Yeah.

4
00:00:05,600 --> 00:00:08,160
Speaker 3: I just feel like obviously when you're going against a

5
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,200
Speaker 3: new competition, uh, the intensity ramps up a little bit.

6
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 3: There's uh, there's different looks that you're getting from the

7
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 3: defensive side of the ball. So, you know, I think

8
00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 3: that we're very used to go against our defense a

9
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 3: lot of times, certain concepts you're key in, certain players

10
00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 3: just because of the overall look that you get. So

11
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,639
Speaker 3: when you play Gains, somebody knew it's a little bit different.

12
00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 2: You have to adjust. I think that was really good

13
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:31,680
Speaker 2: for our team and.

14
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 3: Especially for you know, us as a quarterback room to

15
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 3: you know, work on our progressions, work on our eyes,

16
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 3: and you know kind of just work work the pocket.

17
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 3: And I think that we were able to to do

18
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 3: a really good job these two practices.

19
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,520
Speaker 2: How about you personally, how do you think it went? Yeah?

20
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 2: I thought it went good. You know, obviously, you know,

21
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 2: there's things that we got to clean up on.

22
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 3: You know, I think that goes from you know, us

23
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 3: as a unit across the board. But you know, I

24
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 3: thought that you know, for the majority of the time,

25
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 3: we were able to play at a good level. You know,

26
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,560
Speaker 3: I thought that yesterday, you know, we had a little

27
00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 3: bit of inns and see, but I thought that we

28
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 3: finished practiced really well. So I thought that was a

29
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 3: really good sign to see, just kind of like the resiliency,

30
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,120
Speaker 3: and I think that we kind of needed that a

31
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 3: little bit, you know, try to get put in those

32
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 3: little uncomfortable situations. But I felt, I felt good, can

33
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 3: you take us through that that deep pest to bow

34
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 3: down the right side?

35
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: Look like.

36
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah. So just kind of how the progression was.

37
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 3: It was kind of just pick a side, play aside.

38
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 3: They did a great job cover and you know the

39
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 3: side that I started on and kind of turned into

40
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 3: a quick scramble drill and you know, instinct kind of

41
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 3: takeover and Bo made a great play of you know,

42
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 3: kind of just like falling direction and taking it up

43
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:35,559
Speaker 3: the sideline.

44
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 2: So that was good to see for sure, and that

45
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:37,520
Speaker 2: was great to have him back.

46
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 3: What's been the biggest difference from when you first came

47
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,399
Speaker 3: into this facility to now that you've got the majority

48
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 3: of training camp under your belt.

49
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 2: Jeez, it's it's a world of difference. Obviously.

50
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 3: You just feel more and more comfortable each and every day.

51
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 3: I think the biggest thing just starts with like the

52
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 3: relationships that I have with the guys in the facility

53
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 3: just you know, all around, and you know, really being

54
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,040
Speaker 3: able to come to work every single day and just

55
00:01:58,200 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 3: and just love it.

56
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 2: And you know, I think this is just a special

57
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 2: place where people hold each other to a.

58
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 3: High standard and you know, I kind of want to

59
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 3: be a part of that to raise it. And you know,

60
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 3: I think they were all just hungry to win here,

61
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 3: so we're chasing that for sure.

62
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 2: How much do you a different quarterback?

63
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that, you know, just from a knowledge standpoint,

64
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 3: I'm way ahead from where I was. And I think

65
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 3: that's just kind of the maturity of it when you

66
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 3: get into an NFL system, is that you're just constantly

67
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 3: learning and being around a special group of guys that

68
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 3: that are here and some great veterans, especially in the

69
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 3: quarterback room. And it's been great just to you know,

70
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 3: kind of get these different experiences, be put in these

71
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 3: different situations. And uh, I think now when I'm able

72
00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 3: to step out on the field, I know that it's

73
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 3: still early, but you're being able to go through so

74
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 3: many different scenarios and situations and you know, just your

75
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 3: understanding of ball and and why coach Kafka is calling

76
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 3: a certain type of play, and you know, just the

77
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 3: different looks and in the NFL, you know, there's a

78
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 3: lot of disguise pre snap and you know, just being

79
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 3: able to see that and uh, you know, being able

80
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 3: to start my eyes in the right spot.

81
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: So I think that made some big strides since I

82
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: first got here. That's said, how do you approach this

83
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: next week?

84
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 1: This is like the last week now that you'll have

85
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 1: live reps until the regular season, and you're going to

86
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 1: be practicing mostly.

87
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 2: At the start.

88
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: I guess, how do you approach these last few opportunities

89
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: the preseason games.

90
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't really know what the schedules. I'm kind

91
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 3: of just going day to day. So that's interesting to hear.

92
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,080
Speaker 3: But you know, I'm just trying to take advantage of the

93
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,399
Speaker 3: opportunities that I get, you know, trying to watch.

94
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 2: The film as much I can, to go into depth

95
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 2: and just keep learning.

96
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 3: And it's been really cool to play against, you know,

97
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 3: these cowboy players at the highest level, and I think

98
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 3: that that, you know, obviously raises your.

99
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 2: Your mindset and your intensity to compete.

100
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 3: You know, at the really high levelage and every day

101
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 3: because you know, if you're slacking it all you're going

102
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 3: to get you know, it's going to show. So now

103
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 3: I'm really liking this process, and I'm just going to type,

104
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 3: you know, my opportunities and try to make most.

105
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: Of them when you've been them out there, you know,

106
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: with the ones or teams with the ones.

107
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 3: You know, this this offensive line here for years is

108
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 3: kind of Achilles here.

109
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 2: What's your sense of the group up front? To get

110
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 2: I thought they've done a great job, a great job.

111
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 3: I mean if you look back at last game, I mean,

112
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 3: I don't know how many past temps that we have,

113
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 3: we didn't have one sack. So you know, I you know,

114
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 3: send a message to them after the game that I've

115
00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 3: never played in a pocket like this. So I thought

116
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 3: that they've been able to compete at such a high level.

117
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 3: I think it's really unique just how close that they are,

118
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 3: you know, really from wherever they are on the depth chart,

119
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:34,840
Speaker 3: like they're all together all they're all.

120
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,919
Speaker 2: Communicating, and it's been really cool to see.

121
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,440
Speaker 3: And you know, I'm as a quarterback, you know, when

122
00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 3: you're able to play behind that, you know, it makes

123
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,120
Speaker 3: your job a lot easier, and I thought that they've

124
00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 3: done a great job, and I know that they're you know,

125
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 3: going to continue to work and progress themselves as well.

126
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 2: How about your careft classmate, Marcus. Have you ever seen

127
00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 2: him get riled up?

128
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 3: It doesn't seem to be the up tight He's he's

129
00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 3: level headed for sure, and I think that that's you know,

130
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,600
Speaker 3: one of his strengths because as you know, as a rookie,

131
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 3: you're going to make mistakes and there's a lot of

132
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 3: learning that you have to do. And I think that

133
00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 3: it's kind of just shown like his maturity, Like he

134
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 3: makes a mistake, he doesn't get flustered, He's able to

135
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 3: come back and answer, and he's been thrown in a

136
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 3: lot of different situations, you know, him starting with you

137
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 3: know the threes and you know, making jumps and playing

138
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 3: with the ones. And I thought that he's done a

139
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 3: great job and he's a guy that you know that

140
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 3: I felt, you know, coming to work each and every

141
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 3: day that he's really been consistent in this process of

142
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 3: you know, getting here early, doing extra and I know

143
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 3: that he's you know, he's hungry and he wants you

144
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 3: the best of what he does.

145
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,640
Speaker 2: You've had fans here at practice.

146
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,080
Speaker 1: You played and he played in Buffalo. Obviously, this is

147
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 1: gonna be your first home game on Saturday. What does

148
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:41,360
Speaker 1: that mean to you? What do you what do you

149
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:42,479
Speaker 1: want to take from it?

150
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 3: What do you want to show from I can't wait.

151
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 3: I mean my first time going into the stadium was

152
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 3: the Zach Bryan concert and I think that just like

153
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 3: standing there and being able to look at all the

154
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 3: great players' names, you know, on the in the stadium,

155
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 3: and then just kind of seeing the atmosphere and trying

156
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 3: to picture you know, what has sold out stadium is

157
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 3: going to be like, and uh, you know, just the

158
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 3: energy involved. I can't wait, and uh, you know it's

159
00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 3: going to be a lot of fun. I hope that

160
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,279
Speaker 3: you know, the fans come out and they're super passionate.

161
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,479
Speaker 3: Hope that you know we can make you know, home

162
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 3: field advantage for us. But I can't wait, and I

163
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 3: know that there's going to be a lot of.

164
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 2: Energy for sure. Have you been over there since the concert?

165
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:26,479
Speaker 3: No, there's always stuff going on, so uh, I can't

166
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 3: really find time to sneak in there.

167
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 4: How do you balance how do you balance the patience

168
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,599
Speaker 4: you need to show by going through your progressions with

169
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 4: knowing when you have to take off and use your feet.

170
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:42,359
Speaker 4: I would think that's something that takes takes time, especially

171
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 4: as a rookie.

172
00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely, I think you know, that just kind of

173
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,400
Speaker 3: comes with, you know, a little bit of trial and

174
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 3: error a little bit obviously at times and games or

175
00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 3: in live situations or instincts are going to take over.

176
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 3: I have a lot of confidence in myself that I

177
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 3: feel like a big strength of mind is being able

178
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,400
Speaker 3: to escape the pocket, create plays and whatnot. So I

179
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:02,960
Speaker 3: definitely do not want to take that part away from

180
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 3: my game because I feel like there's a lot of

181
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,039
Speaker 3: good that can come from it. But at the same time, yeah,

182
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 3: you're right, like, there's amazing players in front of me,

183
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 3: and you know, you look at all the great quarterbacks,

184
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 3: and you know, the great quarterbacks don't take sacks.

185
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 2: So I think that's kind of a thought that goes

186
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 2: in my head of being.

187
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 3: Able to distribute the ball, get the ball to the playmakers,

188
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 3: let them go win in space.

189
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 4: Did you get in trouble for not sliding in that

190
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 4: run in the Buffalo that's that long ninety yard run.

191
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe a little bit.

192
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 3: You know, Dave's came and talked to me after about it,

193
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 3: and you know, the extra hits you don't need to take.

194
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:37,800
Speaker 3: I think I was just like so amped to like

195
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 3: see the open field and try to make something happen.

196
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 3: But I'm going to continue to learn and I definitely

197
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 3: got to be you know, smart in those situations for sure.

198
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,320
Speaker 1: What have you learned about Giants fans here?

199
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 3: But in general, I mean I love the support each

200
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 3: and every day that you know, we're able to have

201
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 3: practices that they're you know, able to come watch. I

202
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 3: think the energy is super high. You know, everybody's super hungry,

203
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 3: like I said earlier, to win, and I think that

204
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 3: a lot of people feel like a certain energy around

205
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 3: here that's you know, obviously I haven't been here, so

206
00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 3: I don't know, you know, what it's been like in.

207
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 2: The past, but I just feel like it's really positive.

208
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 3: And you know, I know that we've got a group

209
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 3: of guys who you know, really want this and we

210
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,000
Speaker 3: want to compete and play at the highest level. We

211
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 3: want to play in the biggest stages and win the

212
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,600
Speaker 3: biggest game. So you know, I think that you know,

213
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 3: what I see from the fans is you know, they

214
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 3: hold everybody to that standard, and I think that as

215
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: a competitor, you want to be a part of that

216
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,440
Speaker 3: because you know ultimately that's.

217
00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 2: Going to push you.

218
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,040
Speaker 3: You want to play for, you know, a passionate fan base,

219
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 3: and you want to win.

220
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 2: H
