1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,760
Speaker 1: How do feel getting out there with Oh? I love it. Man.

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 2: Anytime you can play football and put the pads on,

3
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,760
Speaker 2: like you know, it just clicks something different inside most

4
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:11,479
Speaker 2: people like me, and it just amplifies it a lot more.

5
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 1: I had so much fun out there today. What do

6
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: you think it says that you've got so much run?

7
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 1: Clearly as the top slot today in today's bread.

8
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 2: So much run? Oh, you know, just another day of

9
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,319
Speaker 2: going out there competing. I mean, I don't think of

10
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 2: it as where I'm at. It's more as what the

11
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,519
Speaker 2: reps I do get make them count the most. I

12
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 2: don't really care what I run with whatever makes this

13
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 2: team go better.

14
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 1: Can you agree that you've made some plays ear link here?

15
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I've made some plays.

16
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:43,600
Speaker 2: I mean it shows my hard work I put in

17
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 2: and what I'm trying to get done.

18
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 1: But yeah, I've been making plays. I thought there's so

19
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: much more I still can't do, even though we have

20
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:50,959
Speaker 1: to play a game. Yet.

21
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,239
Speaker 2: Do you feel like this game here as faster as

22
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 2: it slowed down yet for you since you last played football?

23
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: Definitely it's been so fast.

24
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 2: She's like, you know, the town of guys in a

25
00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 2: new level and the efficiency and the attention to detail

26
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 2: is so much higher where there's so much going on,

27
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 2: especially that Nickel at one time where it's like oh

28
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 2: bam bam, bam, bam bam. But it's like in like

29
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 2: two seconds, so you gotta think make a play like

30
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 2: move on to child, so being the right spot to

31
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 2: make a play. So I mean, yeah, it's faster, but uh,

32
00:01:19,160 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 2: you know it's gonna slow down eventually. So I'm just

33
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 2: taking my time and learning everything. You know, there's there's

34
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 2: a there's a lot of guys, I mean in different aspects,

35
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 2: but from my position, you know, you have guys like

36
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 2: Nick McLeod and Isaiah Simmons. Like those two guys, they're older,

37
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 2: they've been doing especially like Nick, like he teaches me

38
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 2: so much. Ain't time have a question? I go ask him?

39
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 2: Like he's been nothing but a great you know, leader and.

40
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 1: Role model for me. You ever seen Simmons?

41
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 2: No, and in the spring where here andever he was,

42
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 2: Uh yeah he wasn't you know. In the spring I

43
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 2: was looking at it. I was just like, you know,

44
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 2: how's he gonna do this? You know, like he he's

45
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 2: just so big and I'm like, but you see him

46
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 2: out there covering guys like Wan Dell and whatnot, Like

47
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 2: it's it's surprising, but like he's a freak of nature

48
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,920
Speaker 2: and uh, he's blessed for the talents that he do

49
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,960
Speaker 2: got the league.

50
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: Oh that that kid's a baller.

51
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: And you know there's been I've been wronging him some

52
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 2: reps and stuff, and you know, you just try to

53
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 2: emphasize the detail. But you didn't go see a guy

54
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: like Malik every week of the season, So going against

55
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,360
Speaker 2: him in a practice, it is you get now, I

56
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 2: know what to expect. You know, that got him my

57
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 2: sixth for a reason, and he proved to me he's

58
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:33,920
Speaker 2: a baller. So you know, you kind of expect that

59
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 2: every week of the season with different guys. So it's

60
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 2: great work every week every day. For your impressions of

61
00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:44,440
Speaker 2: coach Jo Henderson, Oh yeah, wrong, he's been He's a

62
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 2: great coach. I mean when I came in and I

63
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 2: had a coach like him, I would say, but he's

64
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 2: so straightforward and you know, he's so knowledgeable where every

65
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 2: day I'm in there, I just learned to shut up

66
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 2: and listen to everything he says.

67
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,440
Speaker 1: You know, there's sometimes.

68
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 2: He's like but but there is no butts here, It's

69
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,960
Speaker 2: like he knows what he's talking about, so rely on

70
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 2: him and listen to him.

71
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 1: But he's been a great coach. Do you find it

72
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 1: hard to shut up?

73
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 2: You know, I'm one of those kids that likes to

74
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 2: ask questions and I'm answered. So this times where I'm

75
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,359
Speaker 2: just like, but if I did this, this one is

76
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 2: like no, you know, our playbook is this and what

77
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 2: we have, So if you do this and being in

78
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 2: a reposition, you know, I trust them, It's gonna a

79
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 2: play is gonna come to.

80
00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: Me if I'm in the right spot.

81
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 3: Drew, what what skills does it take to be a

82
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 3: good run defender in the NFL? It seems like you've

83
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 3: been shooting some of the gaps and stopping guys for

84
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:33,520
Speaker 3: losses here.

85
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think the main thing is wanting to you know,

86
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,160
Speaker 2: I'm glad you got pads on today because now you

87
00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 2: can actually go put your body on somebody. And I

88
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 2: feel like coming in here, that's one of the main

89
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 2: reasons why they got me here is my physicality. And

90
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 2: so like today something just sparked in me. I was

91
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 2: just like, man, if I go shoot, i'ma hit somebody.

92
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 2: Like my first rep in the back of the coach

93
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 2: is like you didn't do enough, And I thought I thought,

94
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 2: I thought it was a little thought up. So then

95
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 2: the second one, I kind of went to, you are,

96
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 2: but I think the main thing, it's just it's really

97
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,320
Speaker 2: just the will, like you want to go do it.

98
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 2: You know, you got that mentality is going to happen every.

99
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 3: Time at how things speed up for the nickel one,

100
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 3: how much you have to process in such a quick time.

101
00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 3: Does your mentality help in that situation that you're constantly

102
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,559
Speaker 3: thinking and your mind's moving about it as fast as

103
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:19,800
Speaker 3: you know you wanted to.

104
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, so, like especially with the way I think, with

105
00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,400
Speaker 2: how I want to be a perfectionist, but I'm always

106
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 2: so fast, Like my mind's always.

107
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,719
Speaker 1: Moving every part of the day. So when you.

108
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 2: Get to something like that, it's the same thing kind

109
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 2: of like as I do with my own time, which

110
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:34,560
Speaker 2: everything's just so fast and moving.

111
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: You got to be quick on everything.

112
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 2: So it kind of translates to how I am to

113
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 2: the position I play. And then you got guys in

114
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 2: that back and the defense that like they make me

115
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 2: like I gotta do better in some things. They make

116
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 2: me be better, like Bobby and Japen like I think

117
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,320
Speaker 2: it's every single play there in my ear, like we

118
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 2: need to hear. You gotta say this, you got to

119
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,400
Speaker 2: say that, And you know, it's things that I need

120
00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 2: to learn where eventually they don't have to tell me.

121
00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 2: But you know, I'm getting there and I'm just happy

122
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 2: to each day is getting better. How do you balance

123
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,800
Speaker 2: it too and put them together where you're overthinking but

124
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 2: it's a reactionary side of the ball.

125
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 1: How you get them to be on the same page.

126
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 2: I don't know, you know, it's one of those things

127
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:14,359
Speaker 2: where it just happens. Like most times out there, Like

128
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,799
Speaker 2: for example, yesterday I made a play on the screen,

129
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 2: but it was really just like you know, we have

130
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 2: to play call.

131
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 1: You're thinking so much.

132
00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 2: About what could happen, but at the end of the

133
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 2: day's trusting your gut and just you know, if you

134
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 2: feel like you can make a play, go make the play.

135
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,320
Speaker 2: So it's things like that, you just gotta trust yourself

136
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 2: where you may overthink, but just make it.

137
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:31,920
Speaker 1: Just do it.

138
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 2: Like if you're gonna mess up or do something, do

139
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,600
Speaker 2: it at one hundred percent. You know, that's what I've

140
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,800
Speaker 2: been told, So that's what that's the mentality I have
