Think of how many times we can use 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:32.720 that this year. 0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:32.880 Right? 0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:34.920 We started with Clayton Tune in the preseason. That's where 0:01:34.920 --> 0:01:36.720 it really began. It was pretty good right there. And 0:01:36.760 --> 0:01:39.600 the Paris Johnson junior. Oh, just your starting right tackle 0:01:39.640 --> 0:01:40.880 from day one, number six pick. 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:43.800 Overall, doing a very nice job this year.

Up and down, Key Trell Clark 0:01:53.320 --> 0:01:56.960 has started, Dante Stills has started, and now coming off 0:01:57.000 --> 0:02:00.120 his debut and making Cardinals history. How about it a 0:02:00.160 --> 0:02:07.560 round rookie everyone. Garrett Williams, thank you. This is a 0:02:07.560 --> 0:02:09.440 good time to ask how you're feeling. But it's really 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:11.919 fitting considering you just played your first NFL game. How 0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:15.720 did you feel Monday morning? I mean, how sore were 0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:19.080 you after your first real, full speed, full contact, real 0:02:19.080 --> 0:02:21.040 football action in almost a year? 0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:21.320 Right? 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:23.640 Yeah? Really sore? 0:02:23.880 --> 0:02:26.960 You know, and it was expected though so when I 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:30.720 woke up everything here, but it was kind of good though, 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:32.720 because I kind of missed being sore in a way, 0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:36.359 you know, so it was cool, but definitely had to 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:38.800 get in the training room early Monday. 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:41.680 Garrett talk a little bit about the week leading up 0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:43.959 to it. Take us back to that right there. What 0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:46.480 was that like? When did you know for sure you 0:02:46.520 --> 0:02:48.399 were going to play? When did you know how much 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:49.920 you were going to play? When did you know? 0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:53.000 I knew pretty early in the week that I was 0:02:53.040 --> 0:02:56.320 gonna be playing a lot, So for me, then just 0:02:56.360 --> 0:02:58.760 the regular preparation started. It wasn't really much of a 0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:01.520 thought about, oh my god, it's my first NFL game. 0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:03.560 It was I got a football game. I need to 0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:06.480 play the you know, so my preparation time of just 0:03:06.520 --> 0:03:08.680 went back to regular. 0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:08.919 You know. 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:10.560 I feel like I did a good job even when 0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:12.800 I wasn't playing, of always staying prepared and kind of 0:03:12.800 --> 0:03:16.240 know what's going on a week by week. So nothing 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:18.639 really changed when I got put in the put in 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.720 the play, you know, so a good start, you know. 0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:24.679 Can I can I intrude and ask who told you? 0:03:24.760 --> 0:03:25.800 And where did he tell you? 0:03:26.280 --> 0:03:28.040 I mean, I mean the coach, you know, the coaches 0:03:28.040 --> 0:03:29.520 they kind of just tell you, like hey, like. 0:03:30.960 --> 0:03:33.320 Told you, or was not told me. 0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:34.720 To tell you, like, you know, hey, get ready to 0:03:34.800 --> 0:03:37.160 play Nicola this week. And then you just go out 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:39.120 throughout practice and obviously he was like you got to 0:03:39.160 --> 0:03:42.080 practice good, So you know, I did my part in practice, 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:44.880 and then yeah, just playing the game on Sunday. 0:03:44.600 --> 0:03:47.200 It had to be a special moment though. Still, yeah, 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:49.280 when you knew you were gonna play. 0:03:49.000 --> 0:03:51.000 Yeah, I mean that's why they brought me here. 0:03:51.680 --> 0:03:55.200 Yeah, So I the whole time, even when I wasn't playing, 0:03:55.280 --> 0:03:56.920 was just kind of thought of when my when my 0:03:57.000 --> 0:03:59.480 numbers called, be ready to go, and just you know, 0:03:59.560 --> 0:04:02.119 try to help, you know, help the team win, helped 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:05.000 team win games, and so what I did last week 0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:07.400 didn't help us win the games. So honestly, it's really 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:09.920 just not you know, it's not enough. So just gotta 0:04:10.000 --> 0:04:10.360 do more. 0:04:10.800 --> 0:04:13.560 You've done a lot, though, buddy, no doubt, a lot, 0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:14.200 no doubt. 0:04:14.200 --> 0:04:16.320 Garrett Williams again, our guests here. We are alive from 0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:19.159 Trophy and Chandler located on Queen Creek Road between Price 0:04:19.200 --> 0:04:22.080 and Dobson. How much advice did you get from the vets? 0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:24.360 Did you seek it out? Did they come find you? 0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:25.240 How did that work. 0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:28.000 Yeah, they come find me. You know, they just kept 0:04:28.000 --> 0:04:30.000 telling me just to play my game. Say, you know, 0:04:30.000 --> 0:04:32.480 I've been practicing with them for about two three weeks 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:34.800 before the game, so they kind of got to see 0:04:34.800 --> 0:04:36.400 a little bit what I could do. So they just 0:04:36.440 --> 0:04:38.440 kept telling me just to be myself and just do 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:41.160 what I do best and not overthink it. In that 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:44.640 end of the day, football's football, which is very true. 0:04:44.800 --> 0:04:45.039 All right. 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:47.720 So earlier today Buddha Baker met the media. Here's what 0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:49.719 he had to say about the rookie Garrett Williams. 0:04:50.120 --> 0:04:53.320 Great young rookie, a guy who wants to understand each 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:55.279 and every the ins and outs of the nickel position. 0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.000 But also you know all DB's and he's a guy 0:04:58.040 --> 0:05:00.479 we can you know, put anywhere on the field. You know, 0:05:00.560 --> 0:05:03.680 that's definitely special being a rookie and kind of understanding football. 0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:07.960 He's very smart, he asked questions if he doesn't really know, 0:05:08.560 --> 0:05:10.960 he's a student of the game. So Garrett is going 0:05:11.040 --> 0:05:13.040 to be special player for the Arizona Cardins. 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:16.160 Wow, some pretty good words from Buddha Baker. I mean, 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:18.400 and you know we've talked to Buddha on this very show. 0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:21.039 You know, how long does it take a player to 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:21.680 know a player. 0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:22.560 You know Wolf? Right? 0:05:22.720 --> 0:05:24.440 Yeah, Wolf play ten years in the league. 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:24.640 Right. 0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:26.760 If they brought a fullback in on training camp, Wolf, 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:29.240 how long would it take you to figure out that 0:05:29.360 --> 0:05:30.560 this guy can play or he camp? 0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:33.400 Maybe a little bit longer than it would a mic linebacker. 0:05:33.440 --> 0:05:35.880 I'd know immediately ball with a mic linebacker. 0:05:35.960 --> 0:05:38.400 Got Jim, how much nickel had you played before this 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:43.080 past Sunday in a game? How much nickel in a game? 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:44.279 In a game had you played? 0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:44.800 None? 0:05:45.040 --> 0:05:49.480 Zero? Zero? I mean, boyd, what what kind of adjustments 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:52.320 that for you to go out in that scheme and 0:05:52.360 --> 0:05:55.880 line up inside and play? What kind of adjustment was that? Yeah? 0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:57.680 I think it's just it just goes back to really 0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:00.720 emphasizing the importance of practice and really like going into 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.920 each practice finding ways to get better, because obviously, when 0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:05.920 you're learning a new position kind of on the fly, 0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:08.920 coming off injury, then the expectations that not only come 0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:12.240 in but play to this that standard. You know, you 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:13.880 got to take those reps seriously and you got to 0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:16.360 learn from your mistakes. So I'd be lying to say 0:06:16.400 --> 0:06:19.360 that those weeks of practice, I didn't make a billion mistakes, 0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:20.960 but the coaches and the and my. 0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:22.200 Team that's real patient with me. 0:06:22.440 --> 0:06:24.320 Yeah, and they still are because you know, I'm making 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:26.600 mistakes daily in practice, just trying to keep building from it. 0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:29.760 But they they're helping me out a lot. So I 0:06:29.760 --> 0:06:31.560 feel I'm getting better each and every day at it. 0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:33.240 So I have to ask you this, do you have 0:06:33.279 --> 0:06:35.960 a preference. Do you like playing inside or do you 0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:37.039 want to be outside? 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:39.800 I mean, I don't really care when you've been when 0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:41.320 you've been away for the game so long, you just 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:42.960 kind of just want to play football, you know, so 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:45.080 it doesn't make a difference. I just want to try 0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:46.760 to make plays for gospel where I'm at. 0:06:46.800 --> 0:06:50.960 That's really a good answer. By just let line me 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.760 up played as long as I'm getting reps, let me go. 0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:56.800 Well, you know, not everyone can play inside. That that 0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:59.719 whole true, that whole slot corner. That's just a special 0:06:59.760 --> 0:07:02.520 skill set. In fact, you know, we were reminded of 0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:05.559 that by Jonathan Gannon himself, and he was asked about 0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:08.480 Garrett Williams playing inside, and here's what the head coach 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:09.039 had to say. 0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:11.720 You got to be able to think fast and then 0:07:12.040 --> 0:07:13.960 you know his skill set, the skill set of a 0:07:14.080 --> 0:07:16.480 nickel there's a lot going on. You gotta be able 0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:18.280 to cover, you gotta tackle, you got play z own, 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:20.760 you got blitz a little bit, and you're in the box. 0:07:20.800 --> 0:07:23.520 You're in space. So it's a unique position. It's a 0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:26.760 starting position. To me, one of the most you know, 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:29.560 important on the defense. He got himself ready to play, 0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:30.680 stepped in there and played well. 0:07:31.080 --> 0:07:32.840 I mean, think about it. You could be an outside 0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.320 corner and you're on an island. It's just minoy minor 0:07:35.360 --> 0:07:37.200 you against the receiver. Or you can be an inside 0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:40.040 slot corner and to me, at least watching from the 0:07:40.080 --> 0:07:42.720 sideline Paully pencilneck over were, I'm like, it's just complete 0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:45.280 chaos because you were in the box. Yeah, what was 0:07:45.360 --> 0:07:47.640 tell us about that experience? Just being inside like that. 0:07:48.640 --> 0:07:51.680 It's crazy. It's a lot of people moving around fast. 0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:54.400 Especially it's a big difference from college to just the 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:57.880 speed of the lineman and tight ends and quarterbacks, running 0:07:57.880 --> 0:08:00.480 backs to everybody. So things are moving fast, but you 0:08:00.520 --> 0:08:03.120 gotta adjust with it, you know. So definitely a big 0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:05.960 adjustment because when you're at a corner, your vision is 0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:08.440 just so different than when you're playing this slot. When 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:10.920 you're a corner, you can kind of see everything around you. 0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:12.880 When you're in the slot, you kind of got to 0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:15.040 search a little bit more, you know, to see the 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:16.560 full formation and things like that. 0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:19.400 What gave you the most anxiety? Now that the game's over, right, 0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:22.320 you're thinking, Okay, it's my first game. We're on the road, 0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:25.600 it's Seattle. I can't hear there's Geno Smith, Kenneth Walker, 0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:28.520 I'm playing a new position. Wait a minute, how's the knee? 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:31.320 I mean, what gave you the most anxiety maybe or 0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:32.640 trepidation going into the game. 0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:35.199 Uh, To be honest, I wasn't really nervous going into 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:38.880 the game. Like I just kept on talking about me preparing, 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:42.400 not even just when I got to Arizona, but just 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:45.360 from a rehab stamp with just rehabbing, with the thought 0:08:45.400 --> 0:08:46.800 of when I come back, I want to be able 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:48.280 to pick up from where I left off before I 0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:48.760 got hurt. 0:08:49.480 --> 0:08:50.480 So when I finally got the. 0:08:50.400 --> 0:08:53.680 Opportunity, it was really just not like, Okay, we're here now, 0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:56.240 you know, what are we gonna do about it? And 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:57.880 so that's just kind of what it was for me 0:08:57.920 --> 0:08:58.800 in my thought process. 0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:01.240 You know what I I saw you stick your face 0:09:01.280 --> 0:09:04.280 into the fan A couple of times, right, And you know, 0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:07.160 for a nickel corner that is an important thing. You 0:09:07.240 --> 0:09:08.959 have to be able to do that. How what kind 0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:11.360 of tackler do you consider yourself to be. 0:09:12.760 --> 0:09:15.160 I feel like I'm just somebody who's who's not scared, 0:09:15.240 --> 0:09:17.040 you know. I feel like that's something I developed a 0:09:17.080 --> 0:09:19.760 lot in college and my coach is very big on that. 0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:21.719 In college. Just if you're gonna play corner for me, 0:09:21.760 --> 0:09:22.920 you have to tackle, is that right? 0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:25.760 So for me, especially as a young guy in college, 0:09:25.800 --> 0:09:27.079 like I was, Okay, I gotta tackle. 0:09:27.080 --> 0:09:27.760 I gotta tackle. 0:09:28.320 --> 0:09:29.800 So now just being in the lead, it's kind of 0:09:29.800 --> 0:09:32.600 the same thought process. Now, especially a nickel, the defense 0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:35.319 kind of depends on you kind of being an extra linebacker. 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:37.240 So I got to be able to make tackles. I 0:09:37.280 --> 0:09:39.000 gotta be able to make tackles of open space. 0:09:39.160 --> 0:09:40.400 You gotta be able to cover. I gotta be able 0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:42.079 to do everything that the defense requires. 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:44.640 I mean four years at Syracuse. By the way, your 0:09:44.679 --> 0:09:47.480 alma maters on TV down here at Trophy and Chandler. 0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:51.040 We probably shouldn't mention the score right now against Virginia Tech. 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:52.720 Is that is that what we're seeing down there? Your 0:09:52.720 --> 0:09:53.760 eyes are better than mine. 0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:56.079 Yeah, it's looking a little tough right now, we're all 0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:56.600 get together. 0:09:57.520 --> 0:10:00.720 Uh so in twenty eight starts right. I mean, you 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:04.440 were three times All ACC when he was in college, 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:06.880 led the ACC two years in a row, and passes defense. 0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:09.000 Here's what I want to know about. You had to 0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:11.959 pick six of Trevor Lawrence. Tell us about that. 0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:12.920 Yeah. 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:16.120 Uh, that was my first first career interception in college. 0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:18.880 And it was cool because at that time, Clemson was 0:10:18.880 --> 0:10:21.640 the number one team in the country. Obviously Trevor Lawrenceton 0:10:21.679 --> 0:10:25.800 College was like, oh, yeah, the guy. And I was 0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:29.040 like eighteen or nineteen going into it, and so for me, 0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:30.679 it was just my whole plan when I went to 0:10:30.679 --> 0:10:32.360 Syracuse was just like, if I want to make it 0:10:32.360 --> 0:10:35.240 to the NFL. When we played the Clemsons the Florida States, 0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:38.280 those bigger programs, like, I have to play my best games. 0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:40.719 So that was like my first real test and it 0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:43.000 kind of just went back to preparing for those type 0:10:43.040 --> 0:10:45.959 of moments and so went into the game and I 0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:47.760 actually played probably one of the better games in my 0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:49.600 college career that game, and I think that's kind of 0:10:49.600 --> 0:10:53.520 what got my name started to flow around in the draft. 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:56.400 Buzz and things like that, and so yeah, it's just 0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:57.760 it's crazy, Girt. 0:10:57.800 --> 0:11:01.120 There were scouts that thought, some scouts believed you were 0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:04.560 a first round pick. Do you ever think about that? 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:06.880 Do you allow yourself to go back and look at 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:09.960 that and wonder about where you would have been picked? 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:11.640 Do you ever think about that? 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.960 Honestly, I thought about the like pre draft, when you know, 0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:19.280 when everything's circulating around. But ever since I got drafted, 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.560 I mean, you know, I'm good with where I'm at. 0:11:21.640 --> 0:11:23.760 I kind of feel like thinking about the teams where 0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:25.520 I thought I was gonna go to, I feel like 0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:28.080 I ended up in the perfect situation with the right 0:11:28.120 --> 0:11:30.360 type of coaches that fit not only me just as 0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:32.600 a player, but as a person. And one thing I've 0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:35.280 realized from some of my friends and former teammates is 0:11:35.280 --> 0:11:37.719 that like fit is everything in the NFL. Yes, and 0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:39.800 I feel like I've had a place where I fit 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:40.800 and really will. 0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:44.120 What have you learned from the Buddha Bakers and Jalen 0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:47.080 Thompson so far? I mean, is there just one big takeaway? 0:11:47.120 --> 0:11:50.199 You have mindset, and now your mindset's everything. 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:52.880 You know, you have to go into practice with the 0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:54.880 same intensity as you go into games, and you can't 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:57.319 just go into games just expecting to play good. Like 0:11:57.360 --> 0:12:00.320 the work has to be put in from Monday leading 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:03.200 into Sunday. So they just keep on preing the lift, 0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:05.959 things about details and things like that, and honestly, I'm 0:12:06.000 --> 0:12:08.200 really really grateful to be able to be around guys 0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:08.520 like that. 0:12:08.920 --> 0:12:11.439 Well, if everything works out, Cardinals will have a one 0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:15.560 hundred percent healthy defensive backfield against Baltimore on Sunday, So 0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:18.080 that is a double ding, no doubt about it. By 0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:20.640 the way, he did something on Sunday that hasn't been 0:12:20.679 --> 0:12:23.400 done since a Hall of Famer did it for the Cardinals, 0:12:23.760 --> 0:12:26.400 a former teammateer Ron wolf Lees. We'll hear that when 0:12:26.400 --> 0:12:28.640 we come back.

He makes a huge play 0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:08.000 picking off Gino Smith in the red zone. 0:13:08.440 --> 0:13:12.040 About that in the one yard line.

Paul kelvc Ron Wolfley, 0:13:33.520 --> 0:13:35.120 and Garrett, is you've been able to tell so far? 0:13:35.800 --> 0:13:38.679 I like to teach the game of football to Ron Wolfley, Okay, 0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:41.480 And what I told Wolf after the game was I 0:13:41.559 --> 0:13:43.920 was really impressed not only by the pick, but the 0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:47.360 fact you played the ball. You turned around, got your eyes. 0:13:47.360 --> 0:13:49.600 Instead of just running with your back to the line 0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:52.120 of scrimmage, you're back to the quarterback. So just take 0:13:52.200 --> 0:13:53.840 us through that play. You heard the play by play 0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:57.440 there from Dave passion another Syracuse guy. But you take 0:13:57.520 --> 0:14:00.000 us with how that sort of developed to your memory. 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:03.240 Uh yeah, So, I mean when they lined up in 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:05.719 the formation, it was something that we've seen a lot 0:14:05.760 --> 0:14:09.000 of film going into the week, and actually on the field, 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:11.960 I'd made like the wrong adjustment call, and then our 0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:16.000 safety Dre he like corrected me on the field, and 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:18.720 then I just played what I the technique I've been 0:14:18.720 --> 0:14:21.240 taught and it was just crazy because the same exact 0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:24.440 play I messed up in practice during the week, So 0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:26.320 it was it was kind of cool to kind of 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:28.320 like fix your mistake in a better you know, in 0:14:28.360 --> 0:14:29.280 a better situation. 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:31.400 But just trying to play the ball. 0:14:31.440 --> 0:14:33.560 That's really been my biggest emphasis coming back is just 0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:36.800 getting the ball, attacking the ball every time and trying 0:14:36.800 --> 0:14:39.080 to make the play because that's what's going to ultimately 0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:41.600 help us win games, you know, So every time I 0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:43.200 see the ball, I'm just gonna try to attack and 0:14:43.280 --> 0:14:46.240 make the play. I really credit my college coach for that, 0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:48.320 because I used to be comfortable with like passport because 0:14:48.320 --> 0:14:51.280 he just kept telling me interceptions, interceptions, interceptions, And now 0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:52.920 that's all I'm about, trying to get the ball. 0:14:53.560 --> 0:14:56.760 So what coverage were you in? Might I ask? Yeah? 0:14:56.760 --> 0:14:59.400 We were in like a form of cover three okay, yeah, 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:01.880 which was zone? Yeah, yeah, we were playing his zone. 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:04.840 And so then I was plably a tenney called hangbus. 0:15:04.400 --> 0:15:07.440 Right, and they attacked the flat and actually ran up 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:10.320 on a wheel route. Yeah did you know that? Was 0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.600 this something that you had scouted all week? Is this 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:13.640 what you're talking about? 0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:13.840 So? 0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:16.600 Yeah, so the the out route part, yeah, I knew 0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:19.000 that was coming. Uh, the wheel part, you don't. You 0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:20.960 can't really you don't know. You just kind of to 0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:23.360 feel it because it kind of terms of a scrambled drill. 0:15:23.720 --> 0:15:26.040 So after that, you know, receivers kind of start running 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:28.440 all over the place. So when I got out there, 0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:31.040 I peeked over my shoulder and seen him turn up 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:32.680 the field, and so I just kind of start trying to. 0:15:32.680 --> 0:15:34.000 Get so you knew what he was doing? 0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:35.440 Yeah, Like I knew where he was going. 0:15:35.440 --> 0:15:37.000 I knew he's behind me, But I also knew that 0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:39.200 we're in the red zone, so he didn't really have 0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:41.960 much else, you know, anywhere else to go. So it 0:15:42.040 --> 0:15:43.880 kind of made me more comfortable to look at the 0:15:43.960 --> 0:15:46.120 quarterback a little bit longer and play the ball. 0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:49.120 It's just great, just a great play by you to 0:15:49.200 --> 0:15:51.320 actually look back and look for the ball. That is 0:15:51.360 --> 0:15:52.160 well done, Guard. 0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:54.280 I'll tell you what though, it's more evidence to the 0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:57.040 football IQ on this defense, Wolf, is it not? Remember 0:15:57.080 --> 0:15:59.400 what Kaiser White told us see his game ceiling pick 0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:01.640 a Dak press gotten in the end zone against Dallas. 0:16:01.680 --> 0:16:05.000 He said he had messed up that same assignment, that 0:16:05.120 --> 0:16:08.000 same coverage in practice, but then nailed it in the game. 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:12.200 So you're seeing this evolution of the Cardinals defense. All right, now, 0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:14.120 you heard the call right there, right. I know you've 0:16:14.160 --> 0:16:17.360 seen your pick on TV, You've seen the video. Maybe 0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:19.560 you heard the TV call, but have you heard it 0:16:19.600 --> 0:16:23.560 in Spanish? Because here is Luis ser nandsh on Cardinals 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:24.480 Spanish radio. 0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:25.920 GI knows me. 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:37.960 He Gotrac Williams, Liz Present, Welcome to the NFL. 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:45.480 M Well, if I joked earlier this week, he doesn't 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:48.320 call us muchacho Louis because that means young man, so 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:52.680 he reserves that for the rookies like Garrett Williams. So, man, 0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:55.880 that's really good stuff. Just the energy on Wes. Well, 0:16:55.960 --> 0:16:57.800 you know I interviewed you after the game and then 0:16:57.840 --> 0:16:59.440 we left it. You were going to go to your locker, 0:16:59.520 --> 0:17:02.080 what was your phone?
