1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,080
Speaker 1: I'm curious when you signed here, how would your role

2
00:00:03,120 --> 00:00:03,720
Speaker 1: explain to you?

3
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 2: My role was explained to me as there is an

4
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 2: opportunity at the quarterback position, uh that we're looking for

5
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 2: for to getting better at and uh and I signed

6
00:00:20,360 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 2: up for that because I'm looking forward to getting better

7
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,279
Speaker 2: and being my very best self, uh myself. So that's

8
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 2: how it was.

9
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 3: Uh.

10
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:32,400
Speaker 2: I didn't I didn't get a clean explanation of of

11
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:34,839
Speaker 2: my role because I played so many different roles already.

12
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 2: I didn't played every role that the quarterback room has

13
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,559
Speaker 2: to offer, So I'm ready for anything now.

14
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 4: Obviously, a couple of days later, they signed Russell Wilson.

15
00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 4: Was that laid out to you as the possibility at

16
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 4: the time that you signed?

17
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, absolutely. I knew a free agent signing was

18
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 2: gonna was gonna come, or maybe even a draft pick

19
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 2: was was going to come. Uh. But that that's their

20
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,760
Speaker 2: business man. My business is tod and today I have

21
00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:07,119
Speaker 2: the privilege of finally becoming a giant gotch.

22
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 4: I appreciate it.

Speaker 2: You hey, Patricia? How are you?

26
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 3: I'm doing well? Welcome to the Giants. Good to see you.

27
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 2: Thank you so much, happy to be here.

28
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 3: Great, great jamis there's a possibility that you might be

29
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 3: asked to mentor a young quarterback, And I'm just wondering,

30
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 3: when you look back.

31
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,119
Speaker 4: On your own career, what are.

32
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 3: Some of the lessons that you feel you've learned that

33
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 3: you can share with a young quarterback.

34
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,039
Speaker 2: One of the greatest experiences that I had in my

35
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 2: interfer career was the chance to spend one year with

36
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 2: Drew Brees and just peak his mind, watch his actions,

37
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 2: and just be immersed into being an NFL quarterback in

38
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 2: seeing what it looks like to the highest degree. And

39
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 2: one thing that he always exhibited was consistency. He was

40
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 2: at the same place every single time of the day.

41
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 2: Another thing that he exemplified was resilience. He didn't let

42
00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 2: anything get in the way of his preparation, in the

43
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 2: way of his approach. And the other thing was he

44
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 2: kept it simple. He didn't think too much about the

45
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,799
Speaker 2: big things. He focused on doing small things over and

46
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 2: over again. That resulted in him having the success that

47
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 2: he had for his entire career. So me having that

48
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 2: experience being in rooms with great veteran quarterbacks such as

49
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 2: Ryan Fitzpatrick being in rooms now quarterbacks with Derek Carr,

50
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 2: Deshaun Watson last year, having a chance to mentor Drian

51
00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 2: Thomas Robinson when he had a chance to to get

52
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 2: back in his star and role with the Cleveland Browns.

53
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 2: I've been able to learn so many different things from

54
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: my time my career, So cateringto a young quarterback and

55
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 2: serving them, uh, would be something that I would definitely

56
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 2: take home with a great responsibility in chaeriship.

57
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 3: Doesn't make it feel old, of course right now.

58
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 2: I know I'm still young, and I know my capabilities

59
00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 2: are very are very good as well, So leading by

60
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,639
Speaker 2: example would be a good way to lead a young

61
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:34,840
Speaker 2: quarterback as well.

62
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: Thank you, Ryan Dunleavy, jamis welcome.

63
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 4: Thanks for doing this. What's up?

64
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 2: Ryan?

65
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 4: That's up?

66
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 1: So obviously everybody knows you've developed quite a big personality

67
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 1: in the NFL.

68
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 3: Uh.

69
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 4: You know you're a social media star.

70
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 1: Is that part of the entry that brought you to

71
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: New York and you know the entertainment capital of America here?

72
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 2: Well, I just think I don't believe in coincidences, and

73
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 2: the interest that brought me to New York was the

74
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 2: fact that there was a quarterback room that they were

75
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,120
Speaker 2: looking to get better and making the difference in and

76
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 2: I saw that window opportunity open. But just the fact

77
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 2: that the Big Apple is the biggest city in the

78
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 2: world with the greatest fans in the world as well

79
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 2: to create some popular larity that didn't hurt, you know.

80
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 2: So I'm definitely grateful for what this city brings, but

81
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 2: I'm definitely focusing on what I can do to help

82
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 2: uplift this team from the quarterback position.

83
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 1: I'm curious because when the free agency started, I was

84
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: going through and I was penciling in free agents who

85
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 1: could be starters in different teams that needed starters, And

86
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 1: I thought you'd be looking for a starting job.

87
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 4: Did you look for that and not find it?

88
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:57,080
Speaker 3: Like?

89
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,320
Speaker 4: Why were you willing to sign up for a backup job?

90
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 4: Where jamis?

91
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: I think you know this, if they were to pick

92
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: a quarterback at three, you could end up being third

93
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: on the depth chart when you're an obviously capable of

94
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 1: being a starter. Why how did you look at that?

95
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,200
Speaker 1: You know, one through three on a depth chart.

96
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, my initial vision with approaching this offseason was to

97
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 2: find out opportunity that gave me either a starting role

98
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 2: or a bridge opportunity to be the starting quarterback. And

99
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 2: I believe this situation is a situation that it looks

100
00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 2: similar whether it's a veteran quarterback that I have to

101
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 2: compete with and help serve and help make better for

102
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 2: this team, or as a young quarterback who's coming in

103
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 2: from college who I have to help get better, who

104
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 2: I have to compete with and serve. This is the NFL.

105
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: There's no there in my job requirement at the quarterback position,

106
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 2: there is only one of us. So in that job requirement,

107
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 2: you have to be a to compete and to and

108
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: be able to just be your very best self, and

109
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,600
Speaker 2: whoever is the best guy gets gets the job. Like

110
00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:11,280
Speaker 2: that's just how it works. Since I've been in the NFL.

111
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 2: Uh So, when the Giants opportunity was there, and those

112
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 2: opportunities for being sure starters or and sure bridge opportunities

113
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 2: when there wasn't as plentiful, I looked at this opportunity

114
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 2: as a great one for me to be able to

115
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 2: come in and have that starter bridge opportunity uh in

116
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 2: the future.

117
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 4: Thank you, Thank you, Tom rock Jamis, what do you

118
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:41,839
Speaker 4: what do you know about Dabel?

119
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 2: What do you what do you know about the coaching

120
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,280
Speaker 2: staff and the roster that you're a part of them. Well,

121
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 2: I've always in my Brian Dabele back when he was

122
00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:56,280
Speaker 2: with the Patriots, I really love. I got more familiar

123
00:06:56,520 --> 00:07:01,440
Speaker 2: with him when I saw the reigning the leads raining

124
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:05,160
Speaker 2: M v P. Josh Allen have a tremendous jump from

125
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:09,400
Speaker 2: year one to year two. So I saw a coordinator

126
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: or a play caller that was very creative, that that

127
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: found ways to cater to his quarterback strengths, to find

128
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:23,360
Speaker 2: ways to get his position players involved, and found ways

129
00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 2: to take off a lot of excess work from our

130
00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 2: offensive linement by getting the ball out quickly and trying

131
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 2: to find ways to establish the running game. So that's

132
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 2: something that I've always married about him. But when I

133
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 2: got to really understand his upbringing, where he comes from,

134
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 2: uh and what he was about coming from Buffalo, New York,

135
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 2: hard nosed, gritty, raised by his grandparents, that's something that

136
00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 2: I kind of I definitely was familiar to with because

137
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,720
Speaker 2: I was raised by my grandmother as well. So that's

138
00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,480
Speaker 2: just that that that similarity brought me even closer to

139
00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 2: him as the man that he is. And I always

140
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 2: respected the coach that he was because obviously he's won

141
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 2: a lot of Super Bowls and he's made a lot

142
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:13,840
Speaker 2: of athletes and quarterbacks a lot of money and had

143
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: a lot of success.

144
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 4: And how about the players, the receivers in particular.

145
00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 2: Uh, well he's he's coached a lot of different receivers

146
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:22,520
Speaker 2: and tight ends.

147
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but the Giants receivers like the league.

148
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 2: And yeah, well you have you have a young superstar,

149
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 2: two young superstars, three young superstars in my in my

150
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 2: and from from the tape that I've seen what I've

151
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 2: watched in Malik run Dell uh and Theo and an

152
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 2: emerging superstar in uh in in Jalen Hyert Uh. And

153
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,440
Speaker 2: you have a crafty veteran who's just always showed up

154
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 2: and done the right thing at the right time and

155
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 2: always finds a way to get behind the defense. And

156
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 2: there Slayton. So I think that was a key uh

157
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 2: get back for this for this organization, for this team,

158
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 2: and getting Darius back. You got a veteran running back

159
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,679
Speaker 2: and Devin Singletary uh and a young running back that

160
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,319
Speaker 2: can do things out of the backfield and Tracy So

161
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 2: I'm excited what this offense has has to offer. You

162
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 2: got a left tackle that's coming back from injury. But uh,

163
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 2: playing the offensive line, were in the trenches, you're gonna

164
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 2: get banged up sometimes. So I heard that Andrew is

165
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 2: very tough. I love getting a chance to spend some

166
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,840
Speaker 2: time with GVR, knowing his his veteran background, knowing how

167
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 2: much impact that he has on this offensive line, uh

168
00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 2: in general. Uh, and I look forward to connecting with

169
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 2: the other young guys and just seeing what we what

170
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,199
Speaker 2: we can be as an offense. Man. I promise you

171
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 2: that we're gonna find a way to make some things

172
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 2: happen and get some wins. And I think that's the

173
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,600
Speaker 2: most important thing that everybody appreciate it.

174
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 4: Thanks, we'll take three more. We'll start with Mike Garrifolo. Hey,

00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:04,280
Speaker 4: What's your relationship like with Russell Wilson.

179
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,600

188
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 2: on a iPad. You know, I typically see you on

189
00:10:23,679 --> 00:10:25,760
Speaker 2: TV man, So hey, good, good to see you, bro.

190
00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:26,760
Speaker 4: Uh.

191
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 2: But now my relationship with Russ is is good man,

192
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 2: russ Man. A lot of people don't notice. He was

193
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 2: one of the quarterbacks that allowed me to, uh take

194
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 2: a look into how he ran, you know, russ ran

195
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 2: his enterprise, ran his businesses, how he took care of

196
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 2: his body, how how he trained, uh, and what did

197
00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 2: he what did he do to go into like his

198
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 2: mental approach. Russe and I had a very close friend

199
00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,319
Speaker 2: who's no longer with us, and Trevor Moroat, so we

200
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 2: were we were a lot closer, uh when when Trevor

201
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,320
Speaker 2: was still with us, but Trevor uh And I think

202
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 2: Russell Russell speak on this like he instilled a lot

203
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 2: of great traits into both of us, and we continue

204
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,319
Speaker 2: to use those traits, especially those traits in our leadership

205
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 2: and our commitment to football. So that's where we have

206
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:16,240
Speaker 2: a similar background in terms like our mental approach can

207
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,319
Speaker 2: be very similar because one of our mental coaches was

208
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 2: definitely life changing for him and very influential with me

209
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 2: as well. Thank you, mag congrat I appreciate you. See

210
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:29,800
Speaker 2: you soon.

211
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 3: Mike.

212
00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 4: Carol sens to me, welcome to New York.

213
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,040
Speaker 2: Said, hello, how are you doing, Charlotte?

214
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:41,240
Speaker 4: Good? We asrussed us.

215
00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:43,000
Speaker 2: But I'm curious when you're looking at teams and you

216
00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:47,000
Speaker 2: mentioned started bridge, But why what appealed to you about

217
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:47,840
Speaker 2: joining up.

218
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 4: Fourteen team? And why do you think this team is

219
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 4: going a place to succeed?

220
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 2: Like you Well, the biggest thing when you join a

221
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 2: team that went three and fourteen, you gotta look at

222
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 2: it like this. Uh, the NFL is a business of

223
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:07,560
Speaker 2: what have you done for me lately? In any team

224
00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,720
Speaker 2: that has that back against the wall, you know that

225
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 2: the coaches, the executives, the fans, they are looking for

226
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 2: immediate change. And I feel like in my time in

227
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 2: terms of my process of joining a team, I'm looking

228
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 2: for immediate change because it's required, it's required to start

229
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 2: winning for me in an NFL, it's required for this

230
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 2: organization to start winning, you know, so we can have

231
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 2: more more, more giggles, more laughter, more fun in this

232
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 2: in this building, like we're in the biggest city of

233
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 2: the world. We should enjoy that, uh And I think

234
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 2: winning does that. So when it comes to looking at

235
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 2: their record, I didn't. I didn't look at this team

236
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 2: being a three and fourteen team. I looked at what

237
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 2: it was possible. And what I saw was possible is

238
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,439
Speaker 2: an offense that can execute efficiently and that can be explosive.

239
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 2: I saw a defense with an incredible front, and I

240
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,839
Speaker 2: saw this season of them adding passing the depot in

241
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 2: Javon Holland in the back end to create some noise

242
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 2: to help that front get home. And I just figured

243
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 2: that the Giants, man, they don't look like a three

244
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 2: and fourteen team from the talks of you know, people

245
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 2: talking about I know Kaeva, I know Byron a little

246
00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 2: bit in decks, like from from their talks and their conversations,

247
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 2: like the locker room, didn't seem like it was a

248
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,840
Speaker 2: three and fourteen team. So this team is looking for

249
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 2: a complete paradigm shift. This team is looking to make

250
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,240
Speaker 2: a splash, man, and it's no better, no better place

251
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 2: to do it, with no greater calling to do it

252
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 2: than right here in New York City being a New

253
00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:41,000
Speaker 2: York Football giant.

254
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:49,439
Speaker 4: Last one with Jordan renand Hey, Jamis fucking man, Hey,

255
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 4: what's up?

256
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 3: Joy?

257
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 4: That much?

258
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:54,560
Speaker 5: We all obviously saw you, you know as safe fund

259
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 5: where you were, you know where you should go? And

260
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 5: he said the Giants And now that sense of where

261
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 5: you ended up. I'm wondering how much did you look

262
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,439
Speaker 5: into it after that? And like did you talk did

263
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 5: you talk to any of the guys that you mentioned before?

264
00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 5: And what was the process like for you, Like what

265
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 5: other teams were. Was there a bunch of other teams

266
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 5: interested you had to choose them over somebody else?

267
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 4: How did that all pan out?

268
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, the the process was as fresh as it was

269
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 2: of me asking Saquon where should I go? You know,

270
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,840
Speaker 2: Like I said, I don't believe in coincidences, but when

271
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 2: he threw the Giants out there, it really gave me

272
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 2: and my team and looked like, hmm, like what they

273
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 2: doing over there? You know, what is their vision? And

274
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 2: to pursue the Giants and c Like, I'm not saying

275
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 2: that I should behind Saquon as my agent, but what

276
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 2: I am saying is that he has good decisions, you know,

277
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 2: and obviously with him coming off the Super Bowl, his

278
00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 2: connection to New York, I'm pretty sure the fans aren't happy,

279
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 2: But I'm pretty sure what he said about the fans

280
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,200
Speaker 2: enjoying me, I think they gave them a little bit

281
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:56,200
Speaker 2: more excitement. So this free agency process is different every

282
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:59,800
Speaker 2: single year. Obviously, with Aaron and Russ holding up the

283
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 2: mar market for the beginning of the free agency, it

284
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 2: was it was stuck. It was tough. A lot of

285
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:08,160
Speaker 2: teams UH had committed committed to them, had their hopes

286
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,880
Speaker 2: and dreams of of getting those two guys or other

287
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 2: guys in the future. UH. This team was one of

288
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 2: the few teams UH that that gave me an opportunity,

289
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 2: that wanted to have me in, wanted me to UH

290
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 2: to see the building, wanted me to connect with COACHBA,

291
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 2: Coach Dabele and UH and just see what the giants

292
00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 2: were all about U. And I took that UH to

293
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 2: heart and UH and I'm happy that say Quon put

294
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 2: that energy in the air for me to come to UH,

295
00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 2: to the big city, to the big Apple and be

296
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 2: a g man.
