1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: How change for you? Yeah, I mean I just have

2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: the green dot. You know, I'll communicate with defense. From

3
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: a role perspective, it doesn't change too much. We have

4
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: some guys stepping up to fill them for his role,

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: and I was portunity to kind of do what I've

6
00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: been doing. Yeah. No, I've had the mic since O

7
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 1: t s Uh. I just he has it on game

8
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: day and so I'm comfortable with it used to. It

9
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 1: is just communicating and uh, yeah it should be fun.

10
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: How much do you have to help Dane? Yeah, I

11
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 1: mean it's a it's a process. You know, throughout the week.

12
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: He's been doing a great job of learning and growing

13
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 1: up to this point in the season, and so this

14
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:40,920
Speaker 1: will be an exciting time for him to show who

15
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:47,040
Speaker 1: he's about, Uh, in a bigger capacity. Yea, I guess

16
00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Yeah, you guys his teammates. Yeah, I mean

17
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: it's tough. Obviously, it's teammates as friends. Uh, there's something

18
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,520
Speaker 1: you don't want to hear, but it happens, you know,

19
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 1: freak things happen, and uh, he's crazy. Um, but we're

20
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 1: gonna be resilient. Just try to find a way going

21
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: forward to feel you know, a tough void to feel

22
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:17,040
Speaker 1: he uh doing the city addressed it me to you guys,

23
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: it's kind of a weird thing mare Like obviously you

24
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 1: guys are growing MANU were entitled to do whatever you

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 1: guys want to do in your bye week. But did

26
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: he have to apologize in somewhere or like, No, No,

27
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: he never had to apologize to us. I mean he

28
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: just said kind of what it is. I you know,

29
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 1: he called me and told me what it was whenever

30
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 1: it happened. And yeah, it's tough, obviously, you you know,

31
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 1: obviously you can look at it from a team perspective,

32
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,040
Speaker 1: it is tough, um, But I looked at it right

33
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:43,960
Speaker 1: away from a personal perspective. Mission he was all right

34
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 1: and everything on that scary thing on a trip, you

35
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 1: get you know, hurt, you're injured. Um, but it's just

36
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: it's part of you know, part of life, part of

37
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 1: the situation. Um. And so I think all of us

38
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: totally kind of a grain of salt and just move

39
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: forward what you do on your bike. I was down

40
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: in Florida. I was, Uh, I was relaxing with the life. Uh,

41
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: I was pull aside most of the time. I was,

42
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: And I was like, yeah, as you can see when

43
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: you guy, you get us on camera. I was uh,

44
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 1: never in the Irish on Saturday and that was that

45
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 1: was from the previous week. So they're on the roll

46
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: right now. I gotta hit up decks later on we

47
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: did it. He he was complaining about the game plan

48
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: and all this other stuff. I was played complete games.

49
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: You know we're tough teams. Now I gotta raise that

50
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: risk of the not as tough teams. One about taking

51
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 1: over the play calling duty, how familiar would arguing with that?

52
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: I assume you do probably a little in practice. Yeah,

53
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 1: so I have the mic and practice I've had it

54
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: since so as uh probably feel comfortable really in the

55
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: place and communicating. Uh, you know, we had a good

56
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: system means zay we you know, he's commuting the plays

57
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: on communicying kind of everything else for the defense. And

58
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: so now it's on other guys to kind of raise

59
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: their level of communication and kind of get that uh

60
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 1: that line flowing because it was it's moothly. Means that

61
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,239
Speaker 1: we just were on a very personal level, um where

62
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,079
Speaker 1: we can communicate openly, and so yeah, it's gonna take

63
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: some other guys to step up. But I feel doesn't

64
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: hurt the defense not to have him there as a

65
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,079
Speaker 1: player school wise, you know what he brings to the defense. Yeah,

66
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a he's a rising star in this league.

67
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: It's tough to step to a place. Um, he's a

68
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 1: guy who's been holding down the deep part of the

69
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: field for us. Uh is able to do some good

70
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,480
Speaker 1: things for us to play fundamental football. And so I

71
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,679
Speaker 1: think the emphasis has to be on guys just to

72
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: not let it feel like there's such a big hole.

73
00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: And that's gonna take Honestly, It's just a community of

74
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: guys right now and step up and feel all the

75
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 1: roles that he's been able to play, you know, all

76
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: the season and the past year. That's an athlete. Is

77
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: it the hardest thing to accept that you may have

78
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: let your teammates down. Something like that happens. It's tough,

79
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 1: you know. I think if anything, you look at yourself first. Uh.

80
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: And so I'm not wanting to say you left down

81
00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: because you didn't let us down. You just you know,

82
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: freak things happen. Uh. And so yeah, I think he's

83
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 1: feeling fine. And right now he's been in the meeting

84
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: rooms leading us, still being vocal about the defense. Because

85
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: that's who he is. He's our vocal leader, uh, same

86
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: way shefs a vocal leader on the offense and has

87
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 1: still been around. That's what makes it seem special is

88
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,760
Speaker 1: that he's staying around, uh and helping us and helping us,

89
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: commun helping the young guys, helping Dane, helping the some

90
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,880
Speaker 1: of these other guys come up. And that's that says,

91
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: that's that's huge right there. You can either fold, you

92
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 1: can rise to the occasion, and he's been rising for us.

93
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: You guys had to overcome a lot of injury obstacles

94
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,920
Speaker 1: this year. Where how does that help and where does

95
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: this rank among the things you guys have got doing overcome? Yeah,

96
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: I mean we're resilient. And I say that you know

97
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,680
Speaker 1: you could be resilient games, Uh, coming back from me

98
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,280
Speaker 1: when you're down. But you know, guys have been getting

99
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: banged up, guys that had freak things happen to them

100
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: right now this season, and that's just kind of the

101
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,040
Speaker 1: story of what it is. Uh. But guys have stepped up.

102
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 1: And that's what good teams doing. Players stop up in

103
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:59,039
Speaker 1: the key situations and in phil voids. Jason just said

104
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 1: he felt unfazed by this this is like, we're gonna

105
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,600
Speaker 1: come to the job. Do you feel that that confidence

106
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: when you're around him? Yeah, And on a schematic level

107
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,839
Speaker 1: and on a football level, yeah, I guess you could

108
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 1: be unfazed too, you know. I know I have to

109
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: be here earlier, be later, help guys out to get

110
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 1: them up to the level they need to be out

111
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: from game day. Um. But a personal level, it's hard

112
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 1: not to be fazed. That's that's your friend, that's your

113
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,039
Speaker 1: guy you go to work with every day. That you

114
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,280
Speaker 1: know how this happened to him? It stinks, Julian. On

115
00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,880
Speaker 1: a last Tuesday, we talked to Joe Shane and he

116
00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 1: said he was hoping to get some extension talks rolling

117
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: with you. Guys. Didn't mention you by name, but all

118
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: the smart people in the media connected you to that.

119
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 1: Obviously as a free agent who's playing a big role,

120
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,680
Speaker 1: did you have any interest in getting that rolling? Do

121
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: you want to test free agency? How do you feel?

122
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:56,120
Speaker 1: You know, I'll say this, I love playing here. I

123
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 1: I really enjoy the people here. It's been a blast

124
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 1: a past few years. Um. And I respect you know

125
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 1: the hell out of Shane and everybody upstairs. Um. Let

126
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: so yeah, if something can get done, I'd love to

127
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 1: get it done. Um, but the Bible that the Bible

128
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: is that time to kind of you know, figure things

129
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 1: out and be involved in it. And right now I'm

130
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 1: letting them handle let my agent handle it, uh and

131
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,120
Speaker 1: kind of focusing on now there's bigger role for me,

132
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 1: uh and do my thing. But yeah, I mean it

133
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: is really is right now, Julian. Obviously business business, but

134
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: do you want to finish your career as a giant?

135
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: Is just where you want to be for the best career. Yeah,

136
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: I mean that term once John always giant is something

137
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 1: that has been appealing. I've been around some greats you

138
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,680
Speaker 1: know xactly as I managed just to name a couple, uh,

139
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 1: And so yeah, it's appeeling. I love it here, my

140
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: my family, my wife, we enjoy it here. And so yeah,

141
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 1: it'd be something that's appealing to me. But at the

142
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:48,720
Speaker 1: same time, you gotta do it's best for you. And

143
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,440
Speaker 1: so that's kind of the line you have to I

144
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 1: have to walk
