1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: I keep going to fun good. It's a little hot

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: out there, but it's cool. What made you do this?

3
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. I regret it so bad. I just

4
00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 1: wanted a new look, but it ain't working out, so

5
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,440
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna grow back out. I don't like it,

6
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: my mom don't like it. Nobody lation for a long

7
00:00:21,360 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: time or yeah, pretty much like uh, like that's all

8
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,560
Speaker 1: I grew in my whole life, so and I just

9
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,479
Speaker 1: cut it all off. My mom's usually like the clean

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,000
Speaker 1: shaven yeah, but when I called her, she was like

11
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: like she looked at me like I was crazy. So

12
00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:37,599
Speaker 1: that kind of gave you my answer right there. So

13
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 1: I had to just I'm gonna grow back out. I

14
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,480
Speaker 1: was been like competing against the offensive woman the pads

15
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: for a few days. It's been it's been a great experience. Um,

16
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 1: we're out there competing with each other every day and

17
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: we all just try and get each other better. So

18
00:00:54,760 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 1: it's been fun. What do you think you need to

19
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,400
Speaker 1: show as a priority over these first couple of weeks

20
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 1: in camp to the coaches who we're going to kind

21
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: of slot you guys. Eventually, the summer just basically just

22
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: showed them that they can they can use me or

23
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 1: whatever whatever they need me to do, like whether it

24
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: be a special team, whether it be offensive defense, just

25
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:21,920
Speaker 1: proved them like a handle, any kind of workloading and

26
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,360
Speaker 1: I'll just be ready for whenever they call my number. Offense,

27
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 1: breaking news. I'm special teams, that defense on that O

28
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: saying this is the NFL defenses are generally a little

29
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 1: bit more complex than what you play in college. I mean,

30
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,679
Speaker 1: can you just talk about the communication and how that's

31
00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 1: helped you kind of you know, cut down on the mistakes.

32
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,959
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's a lot more complex than who we

33
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: who We played the older man and I am playing

34
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: a new position and it's been it's been a learning curve.

35
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: But you know, the older guys on the team, like Lorenzo,

36
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: he was just in my shoes last year on Kareem.

37
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: They helped me out a lot and they pretty much

38
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: make it go pretty smoothly for me. What do you

39
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: take away from Marenzo considering this is only his second year.

40
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,160
Speaker 1: I mean, like he had to learn the defense last

41
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: year as well, So I just kind of asked him

42
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: what did he do when he didn't really know what

43
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: to do or when he just had something that he

44
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 1: really just couldn't get down. And he just shares a

45
00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 1: few tips that he studied, tips at night he used

46
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:17,600
Speaker 1: to do and things like that. And it's been working

47
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: for me. Anything in particular you can share, just basically

48
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: write everything is down as much as possible. So I'll

49
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 1: write it down in the meetings and I go home

50
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 1: and copy it again in a different notebook. So that's

51
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: been pretty good for me. What are you doing today?

52
00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: Like today where it say, you know, extremely hot, you

53
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: you know, stay hydrated and get ready, and what do

54
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,959
Speaker 1: you do the prep today? Just drink a lot of

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:40,200
Speaker 1: water because when you get out there, it's gonna be

56
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hot and things like that. So you

57
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 1: just try to stretch as much as possible, drink as

58
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: much flood as possible, to just do your best. It's

59
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: gonna be hot, so and ain't no avoiding that anything

60
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:51,600
Speaker 1: you do, you know, try to cool down, stay cool

61
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 1: on the sideline when when you can, you know, in

62
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: between plays, take my homew off. That's about it. I mean,

63
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: maybe they'll give me like a cold towels or something

64
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: like that. It other than that, I'll just be chelling.

65
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: Is there have been a point in training camp where

66
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 1: you you said to yourself, Hey, this is not going

67
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,799
Speaker 1: to be as easy as it was in college. Uh, definitely.

68
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 1: I feel like I made that, uh that that decision

69
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: that O t A is the first day of meetings,

70
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: when it was going through the different type of drops

71
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,960
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, that's when I figured out it

72
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 1: was gonna be a lot different in colors. I think

73
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: you've had a couple of reps against Rummers and Solder, Right,

74
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,080
Speaker 1: what have you kind of learned going against those guys

75
00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: really big, strong and veterans that really kind of know

76
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 1: what they're doing. After man, when when you get an

77
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: opportunity to go against somebody like that, I mean, you

78
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: gotta take a complete advantage of it. You know. I

79
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: always go to them after and let him know what

80
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: I could do. I asked him what I could do

81
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: better and what I did wrong during the rep and

82
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: things like that. So being able to learn from those

83
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 1: guys is big for me, and I take every rep

84
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: with them very seriously. One of the things that they've

85
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: told you that you are trying to work on it.

86
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: Sometimes I project when I want to go inside too much,

87
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: like they kind of see it in my steps and

88
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: things like that. So it's just right now. I'm just

89
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: trying to get up to feel with as much speed

90
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: as possible and not project which way I'm going
