1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 1: How's it going good, good, good, going good, going good.

2
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:08,959
Speaker 1: I guess first and foremost, I just want to take

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,480
Speaker 1: a moment to uh recognize doctor Price, just kind of

4
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:14,760
Speaker 1: what he meant to the team to a lot of guys.

5
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: I know a lot of guys has kind of been reflecting,

6
00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: you know, what he meant in his time here. But

7
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: we kind of got here around the same time, and

8
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: he helped a lot of guys with a lot of

9
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:25,920
Speaker 1: guys rehab and uh, he was a doctor team doctor

10
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 1: that a lot of guys had faith in that he

11
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: cared about him as a person, you know, to rehab

12
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:31,640
Speaker 1: him and get him back. So definitely want to take

13
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: the opportunity to recognize him. Man, he did my surgery,

14
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 1: my shoulder surgery for me a few years back. Just

15
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: just how he just cared about you just as a person.

16
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,599
Speaker 1: Like it wasn't football. It was like, all right, like

17
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 1: this matters about you when you're forty, when you're fifty,

18
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: And that was you know what he always harped on

19
00:00:52,280 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: you ever impressed by the career that he had was

20
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 1: I mean he was. He was quiet about that. You know,

21
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: he didn't ever lead on to that, but when you

22
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: found out you know, everything that he had done, uh

23
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:10,200
Speaker 1: in his service and the places he'd been, it was remarkable.

24
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:24,919
Speaker 1: It's truly remarkable yourself. I think that kind of started

25
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,480
Speaker 1: with with Devon and Slate, you know, retiring first with

26
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 1: Devin earlier in my career, I was able to sit

27
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: back and I say too much because it was always

28
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 1: you know, left to Devon to be said. Uh. And

29
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: then kind of Matthew is the same and now look

30
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: up those guys to share the stories of you know,

31
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 1: how things have been going, and uh, kind of just

32
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,039
Speaker 1: set the standard. You look around and it's you know,

33
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:43,880
Speaker 1: me as being the elder guy, so you know, I

34
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:50,360
Speaker 1: take on that responsibility. I feel good, you know, excited

35
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 1: to be back out there. You know, kind of dealt

36
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: with a little bit uh for the level of the

37
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: last week, but it's just excited to be back out

38
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:59,080
Speaker 1: there and you know, get working towards the season about

39
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: what we spend all my time on. It's a quarterback competition,

40
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: do you at all yourself whether uh not? Not really.

41
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: I think I've been here long enough to see that

42
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 1: it'll just always shape out, you know what I mean.

43
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: It's a long season. It's a long season, and so

44
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,359
Speaker 1: everybody always gets opportunities. You never know when the opportunity

45
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 1: will come. So I've just learned to kind of buckle

46
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 1: up and enjoy the ride up. And the reason I

47
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: asked is that looking at the schedule, looking at the

48
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 1: quite a few great receivers rules, we're gonna have to

49
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: deal with that light. I mean, depth is gonna be needed.

50
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: We're gonna need guys to step up h in a

51
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,480
Speaker 1: lot of different ways. So I think there'll be some

52
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 1: guys that come in, rotate a lot, get a lot

53
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: of steps early that can help us, you know, down

54
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: the stretch. Do you take a look at the schedule,

55
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: you take a look at you know, the first block.

56
00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: I take it on for the first block, the first

57
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 1: couple of games, and kind of, you know, set my

58
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,720
Speaker 1: mind on that. So like, I don't even know what

59
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,639
Speaker 1: the rest of the season looks like, but the first

60
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: three games I'm always you know, those are kind of

61
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: you anticipage perhaps moving around or do you think you're

62
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: gonna be set on spot or At this point in

63
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,359
Speaker 1: my career, I've learned that I show up and they say, hey,

64
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,200
Speaker 1: this is just your job for the week, and you know,

65
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 1: I take that responsibility on. You know every year, I've

66
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,080
Speaker 1: kind of been that way, whether it's show up when

67
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: we come playing safety inside outside, I kind of enjoy it.

68
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: I like kind of moving around, and so that's I

69
00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,919
Speaker 1: always prepare for. It seems like some of the younger

70
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 1: guys separating from each other. Why do you think that is?

71
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 1: I mean they've all been playing you know, some good ball.

72
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 1: You know, those guys will come out, they work, uh,

73
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: and they push each other. You know, there's there's competition there.

74
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 1: But I enjoy watching them. You know, even through the facility,

75
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,120
Speaker 1: you know, there's still a close group of guys, uh,

76
00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: and they hang around each other a lot, and so

77
00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 1: it'll be fun to see Two more questions. I do.

78
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: I do always laugh because I used to pick at Devin,

79
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 1: you know, about being the older guy, and I look up, uh,

80
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: and these guys are picking up me. You know. We'll

81
00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: watch some old tape from like twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen.

82
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: They're like, dang, you were playing, And so you know,

83
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: I enjoy I enjoy kind of saying, you know, sending

84
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,359
Speaker 1: the tempo for those guys. Last question, it's been like

85
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: for you, I know that that group talking to Kylie

86
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:23,480
Speaker 1: get straight about it. With Jalen coming in, it can

87
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 1: be a tough group to crack between Doug and Yeah.

88
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 1: I mean, I think for me, I've kind of done

89
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,400
Speaker 1: it in a different role. I've kind of always been

90
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: the guy who, uh just shifted that way and not

91
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,159
Speaker 1: really just primarily been in safety. So it's always game

92
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: playing focus, and so it's always you know, I've been

93
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 1: around you know, I think I can't even say played

94
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,520
Speaker 1: safety before those two guys here, So you know, I

95
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,279
Speaker 1: enjoy it, you know, just having the opportunity to go

96
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: back there and play something. Thank you. I appreciate
