1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:01,200 Speaker 1: Right, anybody. 2 00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:05,200 Speaker 2: I mean, it's only seven practices, but has and I'm 3 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 2: not talking about the usual characters. Has anybody stood out 4 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,879 Speaker 2: like this kind of surprise you that, well, this guy 5 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 2: can really help with them. 6 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, Rush, I'd say it's still early. We'll keep going 7 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 3: through the process. That's what these days are for. You know. 8 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:20,480 Speaker 3: They've all been working as hard as they could possibly 9 00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,799 Speaker 3: work in the classroom and and out on the field, 10 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 3: and that'll all sort itself out with time. 11 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: Anyone not going today who went yesterday? 12 00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 3: Nope, everybody slay. We're going to back down and slay 13 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 3: a little bit. He's tight. Other than that, I think 14 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 3: it's status quo. Same thing with the guys who were 15 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 3: done yesterday. 16 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 4: A JMS. 17 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:42,880 Speaker 3: Same thing, yep. 18 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 1: Jalen Hyatt told us last year that in the middle 19 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: of the season he was coming to you for extra meetings, 20 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,479 Speaker 1: even more so than maybe a normal guy would. 21 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 3: What more can I do? 22 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 1: Woman? How did that help him going into his second 23 00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: year that extra time? 24 00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 3: Yeah? I just think you you know, he wants to 25 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 3: be a good football player, so he tries, you know, 26 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 3: to do everything he can. And again I've talked about, 27 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,759 Speaker 3: you know, one of the conversations is you know, you're 28 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 3: out there, you're running, you know, fifty yard routes seven 29 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 3: times a game, and maybe you're not getting the ball. 30 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 3: Staying into it, locked in, being ready, being focused, because 31 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,360 Speaker 3: when your opportunity comes and it's not like you throw, 32 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 3: you know, twenty fifty yard passes in a game, but 33 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 3: when you do and you're you're not getting He looks 34 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 3: early on in the game, whether it be coverage, whatever 35 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,119 Speaker 3: it may be, to stay locked in, and it's more 36 00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 3: it was more less technique stuff. Grow has done a 37 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 3: good job with that. I mean, there's some of it. 38 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 3: I've obviously coached receivers for a while, but it's the 39 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 3: relationship part that's important to me, I think important to Jay. 40 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 5: It seems like it's been intentional on your part for 41 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 5: the first team working with Daniel, that it's been the 42 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 5: those four receivers instead of rotating guys in and out. 43 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 5: Is that fair to say, and what's the reason behind that? 44 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 3: Yeah? Absolutely, those four guys is as much as he 45 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 3: can throw to the those guys. Obviously, Malik is new, 46 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 3: you know, Jalen you know, played sparingly some last year. 47 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 3: Obviously he has a good relationship with Sleigh, Wandell's coming back, 48 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: I say fully healthy. So the timing, the body language, 49 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 3: there's a lot to the passing game to make it work. 50 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 3: So you know, we're doing as much as we can, 51 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 3: whether it's individual routes, whether it's certain plays we're trying 52 00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 3: to take a look at for those guys. But you 53 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,639 Speaker 3: know it's important to build that chemistry. 54 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: What's Daniel's encouraging as he comes back from the twenty scl. 55 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: Or what are you looking for? Yeah, no, it's right, mindset, 56 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 3: great in the meetings and seeing it well, letting it loose, 57 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 3: improving every day. So it's been it's been good. 58 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: When you evaluate him, do you consider the fact that 59 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 1: he's coming off of in you know, a big surgery 60 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:42,200 Speaker 1: and a long way off. 61 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, good question day. You forget about it sometimes because 62 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 3: he looks normal out there, but for you know, what 63 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 3: he's done eight months or eight and a half months, 64 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 3: whatever it may be, and to come back and take 65 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 3: every rep and you know he feels good. You know, 66 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 3: I've talked to him about different things. Hey, scrambling makes 67 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 3: you feel comfortable out of the pocket, makes sure you 68 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 3: feel comfortable moving up in the pocket. It making plays 69 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 3: with your feet. You know he's he's been right on track. 70 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 3: I mean it's it's pretty impressive to me in terms 71 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 3: of you have that injury, this is where he's at, 72 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 3: this is what he's looked like physically. You know, I'm 73 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 3: proud of him yesterday. 74 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 4: Would you think of him yesterday? And the offensive obviously 75 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 4: his dad is kind of a little bit of a 76 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 4: struggle and they come back and then you look at 77 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 4: Daniel and you say, Okay, after the day off he 78 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 4: comes back and has a better day. 79 00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 3: You have to think that those kind of days maybe 80 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 3: you're beneficial to him. Well, every day he's beneficial, So 81 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 3: I maybe don't look at it the same way. I 82 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 3: mean's training camp, So I'm talking about the day off 83 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 3: being beneficial to him. Look, he has a good routine, 84 00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 3: Yeah he has, no I got you. He has a 85 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 3: good routine. You know he was in here and doing 86 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 3: his rehab and doing the things that he does to 87 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 3: help him. But that's that's what training camps Ford too, 88 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 3: is to get a routine on your off day like 89 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 3: the regular season, to go ahead and make sure that 90 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 3: you know it's practice. You're gonna have some swings either way. 91 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 3: But he's he's done everything we've asked. 92 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 5: Him to do. 93 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 3: And you know, like I said, I'm proud of them. 94 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 3: He put your cover level in that corner spot opposite Banks. 95 00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 3: I just Clot's done. The guy there. Sure a good competition. 96 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 3: You know, Nick's been out there, Flats went out there again. 97 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 3: These next three weeks will be will. 98 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,119 Speaker 1: Be important, similar kind of question, what are you looking 99 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: for and what have you seen from that spot next 100 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: to Dexter Lawrence where we were used to Leonard Williams 101 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: playing like eighty five percent of the steps and seems 102 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: like now it's more open. 103 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, I think Nacho's had a really good camp. 104 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 3: You know, he stood out to me and individual drills, 105 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 3: some pass Russ stuff. Excellent leader for us. And then 106 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 3: you have a bunch of young players. You know, a 107 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,200 Speaker 3: couple older players, but mostly young players that are competing. 108 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 3: They got size, they got length. I think Dre and 109 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 3: Cox do a fabulous job of developing those guys. And 110 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 3: you know, these preseason games will be important, the padded 111 00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 3: days will be important for the whole evaluation process. But 112 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 3: they're young and hungry. Right, did Kavon show up in 113 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 3: better shape for camp? He looks like Cavon to me. 114 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 3: You know he's a pro, but he's you know, these 115 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 3: last couple of days, I said something to Chuck walking 116 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 3: into Charlie Bowen that these have been two pretty good 117 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,159 Speaker 3: days for Kavon and you know, both in the run 118 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 3: in the into the past, but you can see some 119 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 3: of his pass rush really develop here. I'd say, you know, 120 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 3: from OTAs and in these first few days of camp. 121 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 3: I think Charlie Bowen is an outstanding coach that it's 122 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 3: really helped him with fundamentals and technique. And Cavon is 123 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 3: a pro, you know, he wants to be good. Then 124 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 3: you add Burns to it. Who can give him some 125 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 3: you know information, They can talk back, but you know 126 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 3: he's had a good camp so far, pat in terms 127 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 3: of putting pressure on the quarterback, some of the new 128 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 3: pass rush moves he's working on, and and just overall 129 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 3: development in his defense. After a few days, how well 130 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 3: is theo Johnson picking picking picking things up? He picks 131 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 3: it up well? Yeah, smart Satisfied with with the work 132 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 3: he's done on. 133 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 2: The foot so far. 134 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the three rookies, I'd say on offense, 135 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 3: Tracy and Neighbors. You know I told you before we 136 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 3: put a high premium on intelligent players knowing what to do, 137 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 3: why it's important. And then you know the added benefit 138 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,359 Speaker 3: of a player that you can't always evaluate his instincts. 139 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 3: You know, if he's here, it's not just running lines 140 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,039 Speaker 3: on a paper or adjusting on a run scheme. I'd 141 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 3: say those those three things, you know, is intelligence their effort, 142 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,280 Speaker 3: and then you add the instincts to it. For those 143 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 3: three young players, you know that's unique. Now we'll see 144 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 3: if they can carry it forward. There's we add stuff 145 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,359 Speaker 3: every day, and I mean a lot of information just 146 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 3: to see how they process, if they can react quick 147 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 3: and you know, do we need to pull back? Can 148 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 3: we add more? And you know, so far they've done 149 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 3: a good job of picking it up. I know you 150 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 3: have confidence and other guys too. But when neighbors double 151 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 3: moves a guy like that and gets that open, do 152 00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 3: those kind of explosives like you show up the next day? 153 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 3: Is there a little bit more excitement about what an 154 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 3: offense can do, what a team can do when you 155 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 3: have a guy doing stuff like that. Yeah, I get 156 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 3: excited if we just are moving the ball in the 157 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 3: right direction, whether it's a five yard play. Obviously you 158 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 3: love big plays they're huge in terms of helping you 159 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 3: score points. So the more we can hit of those, 160 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 3: the better off it is. Obviously, hitting a big play 161 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 3: gives a lot of juice to everybody, or you know, 162 00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 3: making a big play. We worked a lot of third 163 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 3: and long situations yesterday. Try to put the offense kind 164 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 3: of in a predicament relative to what you're getting defensively, 165 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 3: knowing it's a pass situation.
