Speaker 1: hand effect. Boom boom boom, out go the light. This
Speaker 1: is Lights Out with Sean Merriman. What's up, guys. We're
Speaker 1: back again with another Lights Out podcast and meet Sean
Speaker 1: Merriman and we're going with the LBS to day the linebackers.
Speaker 1: To me, it's I know, everybody talked about the most
Speaker 1: important position on the fields quarterback. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: get I get that part, um, but it's it's something
Speaker 1: about a linebacker, especially a linebacker that UH is all
Speaker 1: over the field and sets the tone, um, the energy,
Speaker 1: the anchor of the defense. And we got that today
Speaker 1: with Eric kendricks Man. He's UM just a hell of
Speaker 1: a linebacker for the Minnesota Vikings. And you know, I
Speaker 1: would ask him about a bunch of things because they
Speaker 1: got some new faces in the locker room, obviously Patrick
Speaker 1: Peterson and UM, you know a bunch of new faces
Speaker 1: in the locker room. But for him, you know, he's
Speaker 1: a guy that's a vet and he's known UM and
Speaker 1: he's been the leader and the anchor for that defense
Speaker 1: for some time. So how do you split time with
Speaker 1: the guy like Patrick Peterson who was walking into the
Speaker 1: locker room with the name and the reputation, and um,
Speaker 1: let's find out if he's to go to night and
Speaker 1: let's find out what he thinks Patrick Peterson. And this
Speaker 1: upcoming season, I'm probably getting to some NASCAR too, because
Speaker 1: I've seen him at the Fontana races uh this past season.
Speaker 1: So uh, Eric kendricks Man, let's get into it. Yo.
Speaker 1: When would you would you get back for the k
Speaker 1: you just got back? I got back Friday. What would
Speaker 1: you go again? I went to UH, I went to
Speaker 1: South of France, and then I went to Barcelona. If
Speaker 1: anybody asked me, what was my favorite place to go
Speaker 1: to the country in the in the world, South of France,
Speaker 1: you went to like it went like Monico Santrone. Oh. Man.
Speaker 1: So the first time I went out there, I went
Speaker 1: to UH. It was a Grand Prix, right, they had
Speaker 1: the Grand Prix out there, and then they had at
Speaker 1: the end of the week they had the World Music Awards.
Speaker 1: So I don't know, I don't think they still I
Speaker 1: don't I don't know if they're still doing that, and
Speaker 1: not especially because of COVID. But man, when I tell
Speaker 1: you that, I was like at some of these parties
Speaker 1: they had the Jimmy's the Club. Jimmy's out there, they
Speaker 1: had um the billion the Billionaire Club. And so I'm
Speaker 1: out there and I looked at my left and it's
Speaker 1: like Tom Cruise. I looked at my right and I'm
Speaker 1: like for real, and I'm you know, I'm coming from
Speaker 1: I'm need from East coach Man, Like, I'm not. I'm
Speaker 1: not using this type of ship, you know, I'm not.
Speaker 1: You know, I mean like Brad Pitt's over in the
Speaker 1: corner when Angela and Joe Lee Paris is DJ, I say,
Speaker 1: what what then? Is what's going on in my life? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Like how how am I in this? In this in
Speaker 1: this space right now? But but but you know, it's crazy, man,
Speaker 1: Like they all of them, they knew who I was.
Speaker 1: It's the weirdest and I just was coming off the
Speaker 1: rookie the year and all the other stuff too. But
Speaker 1: they were all like, you know, football fans. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: find that, you know a lot of a lot of
Speaker 1: people you know watch football. For us, it's just kind
Speaker 1: of like, you know, we feel like we're kind of
Speaker 1: small fish sometimes. But the random, most random people you
Speaker 1: know are fans. So when we were at the NASCAR track,
Speaker 1: which with that what Fontana? Yeah, I got my NASCAR
Speaker 1: my Jeff Gordon all right now see that that's why
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you about that. So it's when we're
Speaker 1: talking about other sports or fans who ever know who
Speaker 1: you know, know, football players, did you was you tripping out?
Speaker 1: How many NASCAR fans and people knew who you were?
Speaker 1: Because I've seen people coming up to you left and
Speaker 1: right when we were there. Yeah, definitely, Um, I think that,
Speaker 1: you know, especially especially in l A. You know, obviously
Speaker 1: Minnesota is different. I feel like I'm in Minnesota like
Speaker 1: fans approached me often, but when I'm in l A. Uh,
Speaker 1: it's not really that way. You know. I can kind
Speaker 1: of go about my business, to kind of go go
Speaker 1: into the radar and do my thing. But at sporting events,
Speaker 1: you know, I definitely noticed that, you know, fans would
Speaker 1: you know, whether I didn't think it was gonna happen
Speaker 1: at the NASCAR event, but it wasn't like that. You know,
Speaker 1: if I'm at a basketball game, you know, maybe you
Speaker 1: know some people will will know, or hockey game, you know,
Speaker 1: but NASCAR, I didn't really expect that that. That's what
Speaker 1: to That's what got me into the sports. The two
Speaker 1: thousand and eight they had been to come out to
Speaker 1: be the Grand Marshal at the racing Fontana up and
Speaker 1: I went up there and I was about to wave
Speaker 1: the flag and they announced my name on the on
Speaker 1: the endcom and the in the place when it's forty
Speaker 1: thifty thousand people out there, place went crazy. I was shocked.
Speaker 1: I was like, I went in the shop, bro I
Speaker 1: almost dropped the Dann flag when I was when I
Speaker 1: almost dropped the Dann flag. And so I didn't know
Speaker 1: that NASCAR like the like the correlation between the two fans,
Speaker 1: with football fans and NASCAR, it was kind of crazy. No,
Speaker 1: it's cool, Man's it's it's sports in general. You know,
Speaker 1: it brings people together. What got you into it? Man?
Speaker 1: Because I knew we talked about you. You know, obviously
Speaker 1: you had the love of cars and all that, But
Speaker 1: what what got you into like NASCAR and watching that? Honestly,
Speaker 1: Like I used to watch the growing up. My buddy Joey,
Speaker 1: he was a big Bobby LOBARTI fan. You know, Tony Stewart, um,
Speaker 1: you know those guys. Uh, But I was always a
Speaker 1: Jeff Gordon fan, you know, growing up, had all the
Speaker 1: had all the little cars and stuff. Um, but you
Speaker 1: know I had hot wheels. I had the hot wheel tracks.
Speaker 1: I had r C cars. I would go out on
Speaker 1: the weekends and and build and race our C cars
Speaker 1: and break them in and build them again with my
Speaker 1: older brother Chad. So um. You know, ever since a kid,
Speaker 1: I've always wanted a lot of cars. I've always been
Speaker 1: into cars. Um. This past offseason, i started, you know,
Speaker 1: working on cars myself. So it's it's always been I've
Speaker 1: always had a love for cars, no doubt. So have
Speaker 1: you have you got into any of the nascars yet,
Speaker 1: like physically got into them yet? No, I haven't. The
Speaker 1: closest I've been to the NASCAR was at that event
Speaker 1: and we were in the garages and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: That was like right before lockdown. Um, but uh yeah,
Speaker 1: that was the closest I've been to like getting in one.
Speaker 1: It's they're huge NASCAR fans in Minnesota though, like like Mai,
Speaker 1: no doubt there's the Minnesota fan base, but just there's
Speaker 1: a loyal there's a loyal fan base. They know they
Speaker 1: know about every type of score, every every every team
Speaker 1: type thing. That's dude, That's why I wanted to ask
Speaker 1: you about that because, don't get me wrong, like when
Speaker 1: I played for the Charges, we had great fans, but
Speaker 1: mostly because we were winning. Were whipping everybody ass, right,
Speaker 1: So when it's not hard to come to the game.
Speaker 1: We got Ladany and Tom was in the Philip Rivers
Speaker 1: and Tonio Gates and you're looking around it's Lorenzo O'Neill.
Speaker 1: You know, we got eleven Pro bowlers on the team,
Speaker 1: so obviously a lot of people will come to the
Speaker 1: come to the game. When I got to Buffalo, I said, okay,
Speaker 1: we were like oh and six, oh and seven when
Speaker 1: I got there. When they when I got released and
Speaker 1: waved and I went to Buffalo and the fans were
Speaker 1: like it was thirteen degrees outside and there were no
Speaker 1: shirts going crazy. Yeah, I've never I've never liked until
Speaker 1: this past year when we had COVID. I've never liked
Speaker 1: played in the Minnesota game where it wasn't like sold out,
Speaker 1: was it. It wasn't rowdy like the fan base there
Speaker 1: is crazy and and and uh, you know, like you said,
Speaker 1: you know we've had some up and down years for sure,
Speaker 1: but the fans have always said, you know, you had
Speaker 1: your fair with the fans who kind of go you
Speaker 1: know who, you know, hate on you one time and
Speaker 1: love you the next. But for the most part, it's
Speaker 1: loyal it's loyalty and when you see him in public,
Speaker 1: it's all it's all love and and it's it's been
Speaker 1: it's been solid. Man. It's a great fan base. That
Speaker 1: that's so when I when I used to walk in
Speaker 1: the streets in Buffalo, it was different when I played
Speaker 1: for the Charges. People would you know in San Diego,
Speaker 1: when I come up to l A, they will try
Speaker 1: to get pictures and sneaking. I might be at at
Speaker 1: lunch or some with on a day and maybe I
Speaker 1: might be in the corner with the camera trying to
Speaker 1: take pictures. Fox Sports Radio has the best sports talk

Speaker 1: Radio app search f s R to listen live in Buffalo, Pepe.
Speaker 1: They were tapping me up. They just love It's just
Speaker 1: it's just some people will really be like, hey, Kendricks,
Speaker 1: I love you, man, Keep doing your thing. You know
Speaker 1: we're behind you. Take care. I don't want to like
Speaker 1: they don't want nothing from me. It's just it's just
Speaker 1: they want to just show me that love, and I
Speaker 1: love that the most interaction that's end up well, that's
Speaker 1: why I end up resigning the Buffalo to be honest, man,
Speaker 1: because that that fan base was something that I never
Speaker 1: really got a chance to experience. Like that's a whole
Speaker 1: different type of love out there that that they have,
Speaker 1: and you it makes you kind of a way. You
Speaker 1: start to feel. I mean, obviously, you know the sport,
Speaker 1: we're all getting paid and stuff like that, but it's
Speaker 1: start to make you feel conducted for them because they
Speaker 1: they're really like rooting for you because they when they
Speaker 1: were born, they put on a Minnesota Vikings beanie and
Speaker 1: you know, like they grew up that's what that's what
Speaker 1: they were doing. No, Yeah, it runs deep and it
Speaker 1: goes for like all the sports teams to not just
Speaker 1: like it doesn't stop in Minnesota, like you know, they
Speaker 1: they're loyal to the city. So so how how was that, man?
Speaker 1: Because you talked about y'all having you know, the up
Speaker 1: and down years, and obviously y'all had like some few
Speaker 1: heartbreaks and stuff like that happened, and then too obviously
Speaker 1: when when my boys step on my turp out there,
Speaker 1: Stefon Digs was there? Um, how was that? Man? Like? Who?
Speaker 1: Because you guys got some vets out there, right and
Speaker 1: obviously you're you're one of them. Who's the who's the
Speaker 1: vocal guy for you guys? Man Like when everything was
Speaker 1: kind of hitting a fan and wasn't going right, who
Speaker 1: was the who's the vocal guy? At least on the defense? Anyway? Um,
Speaker 1: you know, we've I've been around so many guys who
Speaker 1: were just leaders, not just natural leaders. You know. I
Speaker 1: feel like, um, they do a good job of bringing
Speaker 1: those kind of guys in, you know, ever since Griffin,
Speaker 1: you know, Lin Vau, Joseph Harrison Smith. Um, I remember
Speaker 1: Terence Newman. You know when I got the first got
Speaker 1: to the league. He was one of my locker mats,
Speaker 1: like two lockers over. And the knowledge that he shared
Speaker 1: with me, just as far as like watching film and
Speaker 1: just like how he carried himself was huge. You know. Um,
Speaker 1: just being around guys like that, Um, it's it's just
Speaker 1: you could you can learn so much from him. But
Speaker 1: also you know, you gotta you gotta start you know,
Speaker 1: as I'm I'm at my seventh year now this, you know,
Speaker 1: you gotta start fighting your own way as well. You know,
Speaker 1: you gotta you know, different things make you tick than
Speaker 1: than you know the next player. So you gotta start
Speaker 1: knowing your own role within within the things and and
Speaker 1: and doing what you know that you do. Well. You
Speaker 1: know it's crazy, but that you mentioned Newman because well,
Speaker 1: how many how many years you played with fifteen sixteen
Speaker 1: something like something crazy, thirty thirty four, I don't know. Hey,
Speaker 1: let me let me tell you a story about Newman. Okay,
Speaker 1: it was I think it was my second year in
Speaker 1: the league, and we were we were there for offseason
Speaker 1: workouts and everyone we were in the basketball gym. It
Speaker 1: was like after the workout, we were all went to
Speaker 1: the gym where we were just playing against each other
Speaker 1: and everyone starts dunking, like everyone starts, you know, one
Speaker 1: person dunce and that's what okay, Now we're like having
Speaker 1: a dunk contest. This man, Terence Newman, I don't even
Speaker 1: know how, Like he's older than everybody. Obviously, this man
Speaker 1: was either doing like a three sixty windmill or something crazy,
Speaker 1: and he missed it the first time. But everybody was
Speaker 1: just like whoa, whoa, whoa whoa, like like like calm down,
Speaker 1: like we get it, we get it. You got it,
Speaker 1: like you got it, bro, like yo. But see but
Speaker 1: see that's the thing though, Like that's so I always
Speaker 1: trying to figure out like those guys that stay in
Speaker 1: the league that long, like the Charles Woodson's of the world,
Speaker 1: Like like these dudes who stay around thirteen, fourteen, fifteen
Speaker 1: plus years. Right, And you say your lacker was next
Speaker 1: to him. Do you remember like any conversation that you had,
Speaker 1: because I remember talking to Donnielle was you know, Donnielle
Speaker 1: was playing like sixteen seventeen years and I'm like, you know,
Speaker 1: how how do you at this position? Especially? I mean,
Speaker 1: you can do it that while I received you cornerback
Speaker 1: or something like that, but to be playing that long
Speaker 1: as a linebacker, the physicality at all position is different.
Speaker 1: Did you get a chance to talk to um, talk
Speaker 1: to Newman about any of the stuff and how he
Speaker 1: was able to stay in the league that long? Oh, definitely, Um.
Speaker 1: I would say that he was just so smart as
Speaker 1: corner you know, UM, any any position where you have,
Speaker 1: you know, you use your intellect more, you know, especially
Speaker 1: you start transitioning into your knowledge of the game. You know,
Speaker 1: your film study that the things you've seen and then
Speaker 1: applying those to the actual games. And just like, let's
Speaker 1: say he gets beat on the route, but he knows
Speaker 1: where that receiver is gonna go, and just having just
Speaker 1: the balls to like undercut it and just meet him
Speaker 1: at the at the at the apex of the route
Speaker 1: like most people would just start start taking the receiver.
Speaker 1: And but he was just like, manu it, I know
Speaker 1: exactly where he's going. I'm just gonna meet him there.
Speaker 1: And just to see that on film was was just
Speaker 1: mind blowing. But he trusted himself, he trusted his ability,
Speaker 1: and you know he did it at a high lovel
Speaker 1: for so many years. Who who who y'all got? Everybody
Speaker 1: got clicks right on the defense like sometimes linebackers go
Speaker 1: hang with the linebackers or you know, dbs gonna hang
Speaker 1: with the dbs. Who Who's like if you had to
Speaker 1: have made three or four guy you around on that
Speaker 1: on that defense most of the time. Man, Because we
Speaker 1: we met meet Sean Phillips and Stephen Cooper were like
Speaker 1: the three students. We always were together. You are you
Speaker 1: around bar like that? Like Anthony, Yeah, I'm around a
Speaker 1: B for sure. You know we went we bet to
Speaker 1: go back from college, and probably Harrison Smith, you know
Speaker 1: for sure. Um, you know I have other buddies you
Speaker 1: know who aren't on the squad right now, that we
Speaker 1: were all kind of close, but I would say those
Speaker 1: three the most for sure. Y'all. Are y'all constantly competing
Speaker 1: because that was those my boys. I love the death.
Speaker 1: But we were constantly, man just competing, like all the time.
Speaker 1: We if I remember one time I went in and
Speaker 1: Sean Phillips had a sack. The guy was going down,
Speaker 1: the quarterbacks going the guy who were playing the quarterbacks
Speaker 1: going down. I got my hand in there, right, and
Speaker 1: so they didn't give me my half a sack. And
Speaker 1: so the next day, like on Monday, I'm calling the league.
Speaker 1: I had my agent to call the league office, and
Speaker 1: I was pushing for the half of sack and I
Speaker 1: and they gave it to me. I'm talking about sp
Speaker 1: was so sick and he was so piste off. Did
Speaker 1: we split that sack? That was I think I was
Speaker 1: three yea, my third year and I had twelve and
Speaker 1: a half sacks. I got that half of sack because
Speaker 1: I put it in. Do y'all ever have that kind
Speaker 1: of competition going on? Because I always find that most
Speaker 1: most teams, most teams that have that kind of competition
Speaker 1: where you're always trying to compete against each other, ends
Speaker 1: up being the best teams on and off the field. Now,
Speaker 1: you know, I want to say, you know, we all
Speaker 1: kind of play different positions. I don't really rush the
Speaker 1: pastor like that. So like you know, as far as
Speaker 1: getting sacks and arguing and things like that, but as
Speaker 1: far as the standard that we we hold it to
Speaker 1: each other to on the field, like there's been times
Speaker 1: where it gets heated, you know what I mean, it
Speaker 1: gets you know, we we demand a lot of each
Speaker 1: other and and when something's not going right or when
Speaker 1: something's not being communicated or something like that, like we'll
Speaker 1: let each other know right there on the field. And
Speaker 1: no matter how it's communicated, you know, it's not it's
Speaker 1: not really like it's not suercoded in a sense, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's just like this is what's happening,
Speaker 1: Like pick your ship up, like let's go. You know,
Speaker 1: maybe you're dinged up and come on, we need you
Speaker 1: like a like suck it up, come on, like that happen.
Speaker 1: It happens a lot, and uh, it's it's good being
Speaker 1: around a bunch of guys who are so competitive and
Speaker 1: and have such a high standard because it only elevates
Speaker 1: things like you you know, if I'm like, let's say,
Speaker 1: i'm i'm I'm I'm playing the game and I'm doing
Speaker 1: my assignment. But you know, Anthony or Harry, you know
Speaker 1: they're playing next level. You know they're they're they're they're
Speaker 1: they're killing stuff that you know, they're they're they're they're balling.
Speaker 1: It makes me, you know, Okay, you know, I'm not
Speaker 1: doing anything crazy, and I'm not stop trying to do
Speaker 1: anything like I'm not trying to do anything extra, but
Speaker 1: at the same time, like I need a step, I
Speaker 1: need to I need to elevate to where they're at.
Speaker 1: So it's it's it's definitely infectious. I would say that's
Speaker 1: a good word. Infectious, No, for sure. And and it shows, man,
Speaker 1: because oh you know what they always noticed with you.
Speaker 1: To me, I think you the best cover linebacker. And
Speaker 1: I mean in the in the league, man, I mean,
Speaker 1: I think you can run with anybody down the scene backfield. Man.
Speaker 1: Every time you look up and if the ball bounce
Speaker 1: up you there, you always round the ball and to
Speaker 1: me that that just shows, you know, and I don't
Speaker 1: know how vocal you are with the guys obviously, you know,
Speaker 1: like I got got got a lot of guys watching.
Speaker 1: But for me, that just shows what kind of defense
Speaker 1: y'all have, man, and y'all got a lot of changes
Speaker 1: this year coming up to right. Definitely defense out of
Speaker 1: the ball. Have you have you got a chance to
Speaker 1: to meet everybody or because when they walk in the
Speaker 1: locker room, they already know what you've done, they know
Speaker 1: your body of work. But have you got a chance
Speaker 1: to meet all all the new faces and people to
Speaker 1: come on? Yeah, definitely. You know we were there for
Speaker 1: a few weeks in the spring, but you know, like
Speaker 1: you said, we have a lot of new faces. And
Speaker 1: I was just talking to Digs about this the other
Speaker 1: day and we're working we're working out. You know, it's
Speaker 1: kind of you know, you get you get familiar with
Speaker 1: a lot of people around you in the locker room,
Speaker 1: and you know, people know what you're capable of and
Speaker 1: they know what you do. But one thing that I'm
Speaker 1: I'm excited about this year is you know, I'm with
Speaker 1: the I'm with a bunch of new faces who haven't
Speaker 1: really seen how I operate. They haven't really seen me
Speaker 1: in game and game mode, and they haven't really you know,
Speaker 1: they don't really know, you know, I got that killing me,
Speaker 1: you know. So it's like I'm anxious to show them
Speaker 1: what I got in me, like improve it on the
Speaker 1: day to day. And UM, I think that's exciting, you know.
Speaker 1: I think it's exciting that I get to go out
Speaker 1: and I got to show Patrick Peter said, what kind
Speaker 1: of player I am? You know what I mean? Um,
Speaker 1: I think it's exciting, you know that I get this
Speaker 1: opportunity yet again, have you have you got to um
Speaker 1: chance to talk to Patrick yet? Yeah? You know, we
Speaker 1: chopped it up in the locker room. He's you know,
Speaker 1: he's go yeah, No, but I know gotistone. I know
Speaker 1: Gotist thrown around like very lightly nowadays. No, man, But
Speaker 1: you're right, though, You're right because you know so many
Speaker 1: people on the goat everybody. But he he is, he
Speaker 1: is that, you know, he's one of the guys may
Speaker 1: have been around and been doing it for a long
Speaker 1: period of time. Has he um, because I know sometimes
Speaker 1: where you've already made a name for yourself on another team.
Speaker 1: And he walked in the locker room man and kind
Speaker 1: of you know, share some light with with with with
Speaker 1: the younger cast. Is in there or is he you know,
Speaker 1: kind of just meeting everybody and nobody. You guys haven't
Speaker 1: had a crazy team, uh settings just yet. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think he's taking more of a humble approach. But you
Speaker 1: can tell about his work, I think, you know, and
Speaker 1: what he's kind of done, um thus far. You know
Speaker 1: that he you know what he's kind of about. So
Speaker 1: you know, I'm like I said, I'm excited to see

Speaker 1: always different. It's always different when the lights come on. Uh.
Speaker 1: You know, you could you can have all the preseason
Speaker 1: games in the world. You know, you can do this
