1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:01,520
Speaker 1: I just want to win games.

2
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 2: And if I would do that again, I'll do that

3
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:07,440
Speaker 2: or many games that got left. If we're in a position,

4
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 2: uh to win a game, which we were and we

5
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 2: just came short.

6
00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: Your angle came back on the injury report this week.

7
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:14,720
Speaker 1: Is any concern there?

8
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:16,600
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a high ankle spring, it's no concern.

9
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 2: Something it's not going to just go away, you know,

10
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,040
Speaker 2: something that's gonna linger throughout the whole season. It's gotta

11
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,040
Speaker 2: continue doing a good job managing ain't taking care of it,

12
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:27,240
Speaker 2: and the trainers and the coach has been doing a

13
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 2: really good jobs taking care of me, and I've been

14
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 2: doing a really good job of staying on top of it.

15
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: And uh, you know, they have to report that, but

16
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:33,760
Speaker 1: I don't.

17
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:34,040
Speaker 3: I don't.

18
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,519
Speaker 1: It's not really concern in my mind. Last time you

19
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,319
Speaker 1: and Daniel were helping together is the end of a game,

20
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: right So that was that was pretty good. What can

21
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:45,159
Speaker 1: you guys pick that right up?

22
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:45,360
Speaker 3: That?

23
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean, you know me, DJ obviously Jrew was

24
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 1: able to get back. Neil.

25
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: We haven't had you know, all of our guys in

26
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 2: the field at once in a long time. Uh, so

27
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 2: it definitely be you know, just good when you have

28
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 2: your playmakers and some of the best.

29
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,679
Speaker 1: Players out there, and we jeled well together.

30
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 2: So to say we're going to pick it up of

31
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 2: scoring how many many points, four touchdowns and a half,

32
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: I can't sit here and guarantee that, but definitely give

33
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: us a better opportunity to win football games when your

34
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: best players off there in the field.

35
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,919
Speaker 1: In it paid those attentions to the running back market.

36
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 3: How things played out the way Josh handled it in

37
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 3: the contract he got, what was your reaction how that

38
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:29,479
Speaker 3: played out?

39
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: I think it was just you know, bad timing, just

40
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 1: with the with the tag. Uh. You know, the.

41
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 2: Giants, the Raiders, they have leverage there really really wasn't much.

42
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: Uh you know I could have done, or he could

43
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: have done, to be completely honest, but I'm happy that

44
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 2: he was able to get something done and get back

45
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 2: in the field.

46
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 1: Uh.

47
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: You know, the NFL is a better place when you

48
00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,480
Speaker 2: got a guy who's that talented back on the field.

49
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 2: So obviously we were communicated through the running back zooms

50
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 2: and personally on the side, but I was just happy

51
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,919
Speaker 2: to see him out there and playing a high level.

52
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 1: But you guys had a different approach. Often showed up

53
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 1: they want who waited? How many reasons? It was just

54
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 1: going to show you. Like I said, they had all

55
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: the leverage.

56
00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 2: Two guys handled two different ways and came up pretty

57
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 2: similar scenarios.

58
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,399
Speaker 3: The fact, the fact that they told you a week

59
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 3: before the deadline they working to trade you. Right now

60
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: you're here help this team try to make a run here.

61
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 3: Does it feel to you like they have recommitted to you,

62
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 3: like for the long term, that you being here now,

63
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 3: that is that they intend for you to be the

64
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 3: face of the franchise?

65
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:42,399
Speaker 1: You know, No, I don't. I don't see it that way.

66
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 2: Basically, if you're going off of what happened in the

67
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: off season and you know the quick media and Tagg

68
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 2: and me not getting a deal done, I never question

69
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: how they view me as a player or how they

70
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 2: value or what's my value as a player. I just

71
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 2: think it's business, and they had all the leverage and

72
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 2: it really wasn't much I can do. I think if

73
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: you know I was able to hit the free agency market,

74
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 2: I think they would handle things a little bit different.

75
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: But that's not the case.

76
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,239
Speaker 2: So it's not that them saying they're not going to

77
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 2: trade me or this and out or being recommitted to me.

78
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 2: I know how much I mean to my teammates, and

79
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 2: you know my team is so really vocal about that

80
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 2: to me, so that I don't that don't really bother

81
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 2: me at all to say, oh, I'm really recommitted. I

82
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 2: don't focusing at all. I just know that it's the NFL.

83
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:30,680
Speaker 1: There's nothing I can do about it.

84
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 3: You get from the contract, you still love being a

85
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 3: running back? Or would you have twenty twenty hid insight

86
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 3: been in safety or something like that?

87
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 2: Now I always will be in a running back. I

88
00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,119
Speaker 2: love the position. I've been vocal about the history of it.

89
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 2: You know, cool moment for me right now?

90
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:49,840
Speaker 1: Fifth.

91
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 2: I think I'm fifth all time rushing in this franchise.

92
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 2: I plan to try to figure find a way to

93
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 2: figure figure out to be one. Uh that's a gold mind.

94
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 2: But what everything happen to contract? I said, I know,

95
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 2: you know my value, whether it's a running back course now,

96
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: I know what I'm able to bring to a team.

97
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 2: I know how I can help the team win. But

98
00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 2: just say, this business, there's really not much I can

99
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 2: do about it. Hopefully doesn't happen again, though, Antonio, I

100
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 2: don't know.

101
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know.

102
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 2: I'm obviously growing up being a Jets fan and watching

103
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:24,880
Speaker 2: the Jets and the Giants.

104
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: I'm familiar with his game.

105
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 2: And you know that you just got uh hired as

106
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: an intim head coach, so uh as a current Giant

107
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,720
Speaker 2: to a former Giant, congratulation him. It's gonna be fun,

108
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 2: go and get some gass this week. Andrew are having

109
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 2: to making progress, So you're looking forward to getting the

110
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 2: rest of the line back. Yeah, I mean when you

111
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 2: have your best players on the field, you give you

112
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 2: a better chance with football games. And that hasn't been

113
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 2: a scenario or case this year, uh for us as

114
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 2: a team, especially off the side of the ball.

115
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 1: But I can't make excuses about it on them.

116
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,120
Speaker 2: But if you get able to get everyone back out there,

117
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 2: it will definitely help.

118
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 3: How would you characterize how guys feeling here right now

119
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 3: with where you are.

120
00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: At the at this point of the season, ready to go.

121
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,760
Speaker 2: We feel like we should be four and four right now.

122
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,919
Speaker 2: I'd said we're not with tune and six the games

123
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 2: and go away, but there's a couple of plays here

124
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 2: and there where we could change. It will be completely

125
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: different and it will be a whole different mindset from

126
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 2: the outside world view of oh, where the Giants are

127
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 2: at and how we can compete. So our mindset and

128
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 2: our focus is one game at the time, and that's

129
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: going to Vegas. It's a really good team, you know,

130
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,479
Speaker 2: with a new coach. You know they're gonna have a

131
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,920
Speaker 2: whole new spark. It's gonna be tough, tough, challenging. We

132
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 2: gotta come out, come out with a win.

133
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: We'll go through more.

134
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,440
Speaker 2: Do you use the math through your head how well

135
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 2: it might take you to get to the top of

136
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:46,880
Speaker 2: the franchise rushing list?

137
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: No, I don't. I know it's Tiky.

138
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 2: I know Tik is won obviously, but I don't really

139
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 2: do the math in my head. I'm a big person

140
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 2: of staying president the moment and taking day by day,

141
00:05:57,800 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 2: and you do the right things and you'll have opportunity

142
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 2: to do it. So that's how I continued to continue.

143
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:06,920
Speaker 1: To go back. I mean, obviously it'll take a number

144
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: of years to get there for that, right, So we're

145
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: still talking about you being a Giant for a time. Yeah,

146
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I've never changed my opinion of me not

147
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: wanting to be a job for life. I was traded here.

148
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: They're Matt Loud. I was traded here.

149
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 2: I'm not traded will I was drafted here, you know,

150
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 2: And when I got drafted, had a mindset and I

151
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,919
Speaker 2: had a going plan with ship. I had a mindset

152
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 2: and going and plan. Uh So I would love for

153
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 2: those things to happen. But after everything that happened well

154
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 2: in the off season and realizing and growing up and

155
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 2: seeing the business side of it, knowing that, you know,

156
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 2: it's rare for one player to be on a team

157
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,000
Speaker 2: for a long time. Obviously you have a lot of giants,

158
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 2: a lot of great so like the Elis and straight

159
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:52,119
