1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,360 Speaker 1: The first snap we saw you take today laser to 2 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:04,200 Speaker 1: the end zone. Just how did day one overall go 3 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:04,560 Speaker 1: for you? 4 00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:06,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a great first day. I thought we 5 00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:08,240 Speaker 2: did a really good job. I thought we executed well. 6 00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:10,479 Speaker 2: I thought we did some really good things. Always the 7 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:12,400 Speaker 2: things that we always get better at first day, especially, 8 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 2: but I thought we did a really good job. Obviously, 9 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 2: want down the first play, scoring a sweet touchdown, just 10 00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:19,599 Speaker 2: some of the things we did well. I thought Leak 11 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:22,919 Speaker 2: had two or three nice touchdowns. Some guys made some 12 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 2: big time plays. Tracy had a good day getting the 13 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 2: end zone. As I mentioned one, Dale with the office 14 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,520 Speaker 2: line did a great job communicating and being crisp and 15 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 2: just we're just so much further ahead than where we 16 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 2: were in OTAs, but we still got more to go. 17 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: So that's that's a good part. 18 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 1: Second or thirdeen reps from Jackson from jamis. 19 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,280 Speaker 2: Well, guys did well that they executed. You know, they 20 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 2: make plays, I thought offensively, and there's some highs and 21 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,200 Speaker 2: lows throughout, you know, through this moments. But I thought 22 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: we did a good job of just staying the course. 23 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 3: You go back to your rookie year, a third round 24 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 3: pick coming in and obviously you had to make plays 25 00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 3: for the bets to stand out and speak on your behalf. 26 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,279 Speaker 3: Now looking at it, when you see some of these 27 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,040 Speaker 3: younger receivers in the crowded room, how do you speak 28 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 3: life of those guys? And who are some of those 29 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 3: younger guys that you've seen that you say, Hey this guy, Okay, 30 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:09,839 Speaker 3: keep on your track. 31 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think we have a lot of great young 32 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 2: talent across the board. I mean, our whole team's super 33 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 2: young guys who are vibrant, hard working, They've dedicated to 34 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 2: their craft. You know, I just go back to when 35 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 2: we you know, starting in the off season getting together. 36 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 2: Guys came out in San Diego, guys coming out. I 37 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,280 Speaker 2: went went out to Atlanta throw with guys. I spend 38 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 2: a lot of time with those guys. Then getting here 39 00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 2: in OTA's all the extra work before and after practice, 40 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 2: all the extra meetings that we could do in our 41 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 2: time periods, and then as well as you know, those 42 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: guys come out in San Diego and the off season 43 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 2: had a great time for you know, a little mini 44 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,759 Speaker 2: camp of our own, and just to see the evolution 45 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 2: of the guys daily and the focus and the championship 46 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 2: level that we want to practice at and play at 47 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: every day, and the habits. You know, your habits have 48 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 2: to align as well, and our guys have great habits 49 00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 2: and that's a good thing about it. And you know, 50 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 2: they got some guys who look up to obviously, guys 51 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: like Slaton who's been in here for a while, you know, 52 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: true pro And then you know, I think, you know, 53 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 2: our young stars obviously in one Dale and the Leak 54 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 2: and what they're able to do, guys to really look 55 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 2: up to as well. And so I think guys like 56 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,800 Speaker 2: you know, Bo Collins has really shown shown some unbelievable growth. 57 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 2: I think Jalen High. You know, he's a guy who 58 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 2: was a super high draft back. He's so talented and 59 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,680 Speaker 2: he's got so much ability, and I think, you know, 60 00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 2: I think he's going to really shine for us. I 61 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 2: think he hasn't you know, done what he's wanted to 62 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 2: do yet. But I think part of that is is, 63 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 2: you know, just the dialogue between me and him is 64 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 2: so close, and just all the communication that really showed 65 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 2: up in the off season. So just I think the 66 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 2: most important part is we've got youth that is on 67 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 2: a constant quest for knowledge and learning. 68 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 4: Russ. 69 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 5: When you look at Molik last year in this season, 70 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:42,959 Speaker 5: he had expectations being very high. 71 00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 2: For him this year. How important is it for you. 72 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,240 Speaker 5: To specifically to mentor him and establish some really strong chemistry. 73 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, well me, Lincoln, I have a great re issues's 74 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 2: locker right next to me actually, and we you know, 75 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 2: got to spend a lot of time and saying you 76 00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 2: go together. You know. I just love how he works. 77 00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: You know, he's a lot of times you get talented 78 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 2: guys and you know their work ethic is super high, 79 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 2: but you know, can they keep it consistent? That's what 80 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 2: you're always looking for. And I think his consistency and 81 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 2: his love for the game, his consistency and his playmaking, 82 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 2: his tenacity for the game, his leadership, his thought process. Communication, 83 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 2: He's not shy. He's great in the meetings. Anytime you 84 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 2: have a young star receiver, you know, you know, for me, 85 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 2: you know, and especially when we have our our meetings 86 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 2: with the receivers and tight ends and stuff like that, 87 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 2: it's the communication that we always have, right. But then 88 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 2: also you want those guys to be interactive and communicate too, 89 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 2: and he does a tremendous job of that. He's he's 90 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 2: communicating to the other guys, what he sees, what he 91 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 2: would do, you know, all these different things. So I 92 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 2: thought he had a great day today. He made some 93 00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 2: really big plays, you know. I think he had probably 94 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: two or three touchdowns down there for sure. So I 95 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,120 Speaker 2: think there's there's gonna be more to him and we're 96 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 2: gonna keep developing. Obviously we're just getting started and just 97 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 2: get kind of warm enough and getting hot. But we're 98 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 2: excited to work together. 99 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 4: And Brian earlier they said, uh, you know, the guys 100 00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,360 Speaker 4: would be competing, but russ are Russes are starter. What 101 00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 4: does that mean to you at this point of your 102 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 4: career And how beneficial was that to know that? Hey, 103 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 4: you know, you know you're kind of locked into that 104 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 4: role and I can concentrate on getting ready for week one. 105 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: At this point, I'm always just focused on being the 106 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 2: best version of me every day. I you know, for me, 107 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 2: you know, my mentality is always to be the best 108 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 2: in the world, you know, I don't I don't know 109 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 2: anything else other than that. Just trying to having that 110 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 2: mentality and help helping our football team win. You know. 111 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: I think that's the big thing that I'm really highly 112 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 2: focused on is is elevating our practice, elevating our play, 113 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 2: elevating our mentality and having a championship mentality daily. And 114 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 2: I think that we're on that We're on that path, 115 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 2: but we got to keep doing it daily. And it 116 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 2: starts with me and my mindset and my energy and 117 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:36,640 Speaker 2: the way that I step into the uddle every day. 118 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 2: And it's that's what's important in your jersey. And have 119 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 2: you and your family gotten some time to spend around here? Yeah, 120 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 2: I'm always have been to New York a bunch in 121 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 2: the past. You have a lot of family been here 122 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 2: and lived here and stuff like that and all that. 123 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 2: But yeah, we love it here. It's it's just a 124 00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 2: great city. You know. New York is amazing jerseys as well, 125 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,720 Speaker 2: And just I think what I love is the fans, 126 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 2: the sports culture obviously for share them culture is great too, 127 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 2: and just you know, I think that's great. But I 128 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:07,640 Speaker 2: think just for me, I've always been a fast paced guy. 129 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: I don't know, everybody knows me really well, you know, constantly, 130 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: you know, just how they focus them, you know, it's 131 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 2: I was always taking aching credits in college, playing football, baseball. 132 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 2: I just like being you know, occupied, and at the 133 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 2: same time, you know, my number one part of it 134 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 2: all is the game that I love. You know, that's 135 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 2: the best part about it. You know, I get to 136 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 2: do what I love to do, and these guys love 137 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: doing it together, and we're spend a lot of time together. 138 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 2: So these moments like this training camp is the part 139 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 2: where you love, you know, those bonding in the hotel, 140 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: the bonding you know, early in the mornings of late 141 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 2: at night, the extra film that's I mean, you spend 142 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,320 Speaker 2: together talking ball. I mean, that's that's the part that 143 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 2: you forever remember. Terms of New York. No, she loves 144 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: you know, I love New York too, But it was 145 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 2: all about ball some elite. 146 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 1: Just for a second, he mentioned a ton of your 147 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: leadership trades and qualities. How important is that not to 148 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: just what the team have those trades, but he mentioned 149 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 1: what the chefs, cooks and other people in this building. 150 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: How important is that to you to come in and 151 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 1: establish that type of culture. 152 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 2: You know, I think leadership is about one hundred percent 153 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 2: of the time. It's not eighty percent of the time 154 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 2: or ninety percent of the time. It's got to be a 155 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 2: hundred percent of the time. And I think that they're 156 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 2: you know, you know, it gets lonely sometimes, you know, 157 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 2: it can, you know, but I think that when you 158 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 2: have great people around you, it doesn't. It's the best part, 159 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,359 Speaker 2: you know. It's the it's the camaraderie, it's the fellowship, 160 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 2: it's the time together. It's the leading other groups and 161 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 2: the other guys to believe more than they even it 162 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 2: can even see sometimes. And I think that's really important. 163 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 2: And I think and it's not just the players, it's 164 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 2: everybody in the building. It's it's like like you mentioned, 165 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 2: it's the training staff, to the chefs, to the everybody 166 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 2: that's helping, you know, early in the mornings and late 167 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 2: at nights that you don't see. And I think that's 168 00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 2: what matters more than anything else. And then obviously the 169 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 2: culture that we that we continue to establish and bring 170 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 2: daily and the energy. You know, we get the best 171 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,880 Speaker 2: job selling the guys on the field and practice field. 172 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: Halfway through, Man, we've got the best job in the world. 173 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 2: I mean, we get to play with the New York Giants, 174 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,280 Speaker 2: the opportunity we have, the gift that it is to 175 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: play the game, and so many you know, don't forget 176 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: about that part, the gratitude part of it. And we 177 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,799 Speaker 2: have gratitude and joy. You know, it takes the fear away. 178 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 2: You know a lot of times, you know you're able 179 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 2: to focus on the moments and focus on the on 180 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 2: the actual moment of getting a step out on that field. 181 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 2: And you know, I get to see some young kids 182 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 2: out there that that dream to be like us one day. 183 00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: And that's the best part about practice. After you have 184 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 2: a great day, as you know, seeing the young kids 185 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 2: you know want to be like you, and if you 186 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: can inspire one, you know, anything, you get to change, uh, 187 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 2: somebody's life. And I think that's why we get to 188 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:28,360 Speaker 2: do what good to do? 189 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,600 Speaker 5: You mentioned earlier that you know, you know that people 190 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 5: are watching your you know, to see your energy and 191 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 5: your you know, your your nature and things. 192 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 2: Do you ever need a recharge? You know what I mean? 193 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: I mean, do you ever need to have someone be 194 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,920 Speaker 2: a Russell Wilson to you? I think that's a great question. 195 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 2: I think I don't know, Maybe I'm in enerjudge with 196 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 2: budding a lot of the times, but I think, yeah, 197 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm always constantly working on me. You know, 198 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 2: we're all growing, we're all learning, and we're all developing. 199 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 2: We all have highs and lows. I've had a lot 200 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: of highs, you know, and the lows just lessons along 201 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 2: the way. You know that losses, they're just lessons. And 202 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,680 Speaker 2: I think a lot of times you're able to really 203 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 2: grow and really just you know that you're battle tested. Man. 204 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 2: If anybody's battle tested, I am, you know, I mean, 205 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 2: you know, I can handle anything. And I think the 206 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 2: best part about it too is that you as a leader, 207 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 2: you want everybody to know what they're getting every day. 208 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 2: And I think that's what you know, I want to 209 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 2: be able to establish every day, you know, And like 210 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 2: I said, it's one hundred percent of the times, nine eighties, 211 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 2: nine ninety's one hundred percent every day, one hundred percent 212 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 2: of the time, every day. And so that's, uh, that's 213 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 2: the great part about it. And that's that's the gift 214 00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,480 Speaker 2: that God has given me and to be able to 215 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 2: lead and to be able to play and love the 216 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 2: game that I love and play the game I love. 217 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 2: You want a lot in your career. The guy who's 218 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: sort of speak the quarterback of the defense, Dexter Lawrence, 219 00:08:46,679 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 2: has not won a lot in his career. He was 220 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 2: just here talking about the urgency. He feels. I'm wondering 221 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 2: if that Rady, if you sense that from him. You know, 222 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 2: I think when you play in the National Football League, 223 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 2: the one thing that I've always believed in as a 224 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 2: professional in general is you know, no matter what the 225 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:06,599 Speaker 2: circumstances are, your urgency should always be high. You know. 226 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 2: I think that, you know, I think the urgency that 227 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,599 Speaker 2: we have and urgency that we constantly are focused on 228 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,199 Speaker 2: is just being the best version of us individually and 229 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 2: then collectively. When you can be the best version of you, 230 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,840 Speaker 2: then fast forward, it makes us as a collective team better. 231 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 2: And I think, you know, guy like Desh Lawrence, he's 232 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,959 Speaker 2: he's the A plus player of a mall. You know, 233 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 2: he's a guy that's world class. I remember playing him 234 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 2: last year. He's like, Hey, this guy's all over the field. 235 00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,120 Speaker 2: I remember he sacked me one time and I had 236 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 2: to get up. I was like, man, that's a big boy, 237 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 2: you know. So I just you know, to play with 238 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 2: a guy like that, and to know we have a 239 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 2: lot of guys like that on the defensive side and 240 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 2: the ball in particularly the defensive line and just across 241 00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 2: the board. I think guys like Bobby ke who's a 242 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 2: tremendous football player as well at the back of position, 243 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 2: and some other guys we've added, you know, the Debo 244 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 2: and Holland and all those guys that we have on 245 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 2: the secondary. And I'm excited for Banks to what he 246 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 2: can do. I just it's it's a group effort, like 247 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 2: I said, it's and it's not just one man. It's 248 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 2: it's all of us together. And I think the best 249 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 2: part about winning is that it's the it's the incremental moments, 250 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 2: the game altering plays, the gap plays I call it, 251 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 2: that help you win. And I think those small incremental 252 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,280 Speaker 2: gains throughout the day, throughout the weeks, throughout the training 253 00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 2: camps and moments like this that you that you kind 254 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: of gain ground. And I think that's what we can 255 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 2: do here, and you know, I hopefully I can bring 256 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,839 Speaker 2: some of that winning culture and win in mindset. You know, 257 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 2: like I said, daily. 258 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 3: Russell, did you say anything to Jackson after his pick six? 259 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 3: Or is that not your lane? 260 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 2: I just told the next next play. I don't know 261 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,079 Speaker 2: if you even heard me as loud it there, but 262 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 2: I just, you know, told the next play. You know, 263 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 2: but you know, he's got a good head on his shoulders, 264 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 2: and you know that there's gonna be plays that people make. 265 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 2: You know, you got to be able to think about 266 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 2: the quarterback. You gotta be able to move on to 267 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 2: the next play good or about it. And I think 268 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 2: that's what we gotta have to be able to do. 269 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 2: How much does he leaned on your experience? And what 270 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,599 Speaker 2: is your message to Jackson's next to me in the 271 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 2: meeting rooms and stuff like that, so we get to 272 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 2: talk a lot, you know, I really like him. Yeah, 273 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 2: He's definitely asked a lot of questions and stuff. And 274 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 2: I'm not one to hold back. I just give all 275 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 2: my thoughts. I just belie even you know, much as 276 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 2: given much required. So just you keep sharing and you 277 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 2: keep learning. And as you're sharing, you're learning too, right, 278 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 2: you know, you're constantly growing, and you're constantly reminding yourself 279 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 2: to oh yeah that's a good point, you know, those 280 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 2: little things. And so you know, I think that's an 281 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: important to you know, keep you know, helping him in 282 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,240 Speaker 2: whatever way, which in turn helps us and helps me 283 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 2: as a players, as a leader in all of us. Right, 284 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 2: and we all want to be great, you know, we 285 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 2: want every player to be great. You know, I think 286 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 2: you know, how great can we get? To collectively, and 287 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 2: we could do that individually and add it up. Yeah, 288 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 2: good football team. Have you ever not been confident in 289 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 2: what you do? 290 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 4: Then? 291 00:11:38,200 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 5: Do you because of that because you come off so confident? 292 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 5: Do you have to make sure that when you show 293 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 5: your confidence that people believe it's genuine confidence and it's 294 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 5: not just like teammates, not just trying to say things 295 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 5: for the sake. 296 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:55,520 Speaker 2: Of saying yeah. I think first of all, you gain 297 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:58,199 Speaker 2: confidence for a few things. I think first of all, 298 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 2: what you say in between your own years is important. 299 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,959 Speaker 2: You know, it's not even just the external part, but 300 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 2: it's what's my internal language. I think my internal language 301 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 2: has been great, you know, throughout really my career. But 302 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 2: really I dedicate that to my parents. My mom my 303 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 2: dad always encouraging rather than discouraging, lifted me up highs 304 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 2: and lows. Been through some stuff seeing my dad passed away. 305 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 2: I've been through some things in life, you know. You know, 306 00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: I grew up with no hot water, sometimes no water 307 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 2: at all. You know, I saw my parents work the 308 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 2: sacrifice they gave. Man Like man, I get to do 309 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 2: the best thing in the world is play quarterback in 310 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 2: the New York Giants and play the National FOOTBA League 311 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 2: for fourteen years and man, what a gift. And so 312 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: for me, I got no other choice but to be 313 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 2: confidence because of what I've been through and what I've 314 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 2: gone through and where I've been and all this success too, right, 315 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 2: And that's the second part of it is as you 316 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 2: practice and you get better and you do the things 317 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 2: right fundamentally over and over and over and over again. 318 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 2: Part of success is not the moments, the singular moments. 319 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,360 Speaker 2: It's a collection of moments that you add up. When 320 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,319 Speaker 2: you add those collection of moments through practice and through 321 00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 2: your habits daily on and off the field, I think 322 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 2: that gives you a great chance to give you your 323 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:04,599 Speaker 2: confidence and give you success more times than not. And 324 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 2: then I think the third part of two it is 325 00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 2: is the ability to go through adversity. And I think 326 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 2: it was Joe Girardi talking about paraphrasing here, but talking 327 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,839 Speaker 2: about Derek Jeter and his best attribute was, you know, 328 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 2: he was always consistent, but he was also consistently great 329 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 2: at adjusting. And I think that's one of the things 330 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 2: that you have to be able to do as a 331 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: as a as a as a guy, as a leader, 332 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 2: as a player, is to be able to consistently adjust 333 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 2: and consistently grow. And the last part of it is is, 334 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,719 Speaker 2: like I said, is you know, when you get to 335 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,719 Speaker 2: do it for so long, you know, there's just like 336 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,440 Speaker 2: you know, there's this like internal like I've been here before, 337 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: and like I said, that internal language is a big 338 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 2: part of it. But also too, it's the visualization that 339 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 2: you picture. It's the plays, It's the obsession with studying, 340 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 2: It's the obsession with film. It's the all that when 341 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 2: you when you've seen it and you can anticipate it 342 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 2: and you have a process of elimination, understand what may happen, 343 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 2: what may not happen here that gives you confidence and 344 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 2: the end of the day, you got to make plays, right, 345 00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,440 Speaker 2: Like you know, I've been fortunately able to make plays 346 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 2: for a long time. And it's not it's on film, 347 00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,599 Speaker 2: you know. So a lot of it is just you 348 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 2: study it and learn it and grow and you keep 349 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 2: getting better and you ignore the noise and you keep 350 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 2: your head down and keep working. And yeah, I think 351 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,160 Speaker 2: I also work on it too. I think, you know, 352 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 2: last piece of it is is that you know, like 353 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 2: I said, I think my mental aptitude is definitely very strong, 354 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 2: but it doesn't mean I'm done with it. You know, 355 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 2: you have to keep growing, just like anything, you keep 356 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 2: working on it. And so a big part of it 357 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 2: for me, like even myself, is, you know, I had 358 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 2: Trevor Moa in my world for a long long time 359 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 2: as my mental coach for you know, twelve thirteen years 360 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 2: he passed away to cancer. Was the number one sportsy 361 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 2: cology in the world, and I called my brother about it, 362 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 2: and a big part of it was just really, you know, 363 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 2: trying to find that part of it again. So for me, 364 00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 2: I ended up bringing this guy on, Josh La Frank, 365 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 2: who was you know, mental coach a couple of the 366 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 2: Cubs win the World Series. He was Trevor's best friend. 367 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,600 Speaker 2: Got a very similar dialogue in language. So we get 368 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 2: to talk about it a lot. And then ultimately you 369 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 2: gotta have faith, you know what God's giving you, and 370 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 2: so those things are how I build my confidence and 371 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 2: how I keep it there, you know, and then you 372 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 2: keep growing and you keep building off of it.
