1
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:04,120
Speaker 1: This is the Colts Daily Update, a look at the

2
00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: latest with the Indianapolis Colts. Now here's the voice of

3
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 1: the Colts, Matt Taylor from the Power Home Solar Radio Studio. Hey,

4
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,319
Speaker 1: welcome into the midweek Daily Update on this Wednesday with

5
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,880
Speaker 1: until six fifteen to night. Then it's instant replay taking

6
00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:21,919
Speaker 1: you up to the top of the hour at seven o'clock,

7
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: and then it's Pacer pregame the Pacers in Toronto tonight

8
00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 1: the Battle the Rafters. But the Colts are gearing up

9
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:31,159
Speaker 1: from Monster Game coming up on Sunday, the host the

10
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,920
Speaker 1: five and two Tennessee Titans at Lucas Oil Stadium. Tennessee'son

11
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,360
Speaker 1: first place in the AFC South and tied for the

12
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: best record in the AFC heading into week number eight.

13
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: Let's start first with the injury overview, as the Colts

14
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: conducted a walk through today, so the practice report is

15
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: an estimation of a player's participation if there was a practice.

16
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: So with that in mind, t Y Hilton, Bo Pete Keys,

17
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 1: and Xavier Roads are listed as not participating. Frank Reich

18
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: said on Monday that it feels good about ty Hilton

19
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: availability this week after not playing last week. With a quad.

20
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 1: Xavier Rhodes got it out of courageous performance with a

21
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 1: calf injury in warmups before the forty nine er game.

22
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: It looked as if he wasn't going to be able

23
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: to play, but he powered through and he had a

24
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: great game with a huge pick in the fourth quarter

25
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 1: in two passes defensed limited today where Naim Hines with ribs,

26
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:22,319
Speaker 1: Braden Smith with a foot and thumb. He's trending in

27
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 1: the right direction after missing the last six games, so

28
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: we'll keep an eye on that. Jonathan Taylor with ribs,

29
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: Kmocha Terrey with a groin. He's missing the last two

30
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: games with that rock you scene with an ankle. He

31
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: didn't go last week against the forty nine ers and

32
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 1: he's missed three games this season. And Jordan Wilkins was

33
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,759
Speaker 1: full go today. Good sign there after missing the last

34
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,280
Speaker 1: couple of games with a non football illness. Also, don't

35
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: want to forget about the congrats that are in order

36
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 1: to Rigo Sanchez, the Colts punter. He's been named AFC

37
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 1: Special Teams Player of the Week for the second time

38
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: in the last month. That's because he had two punts

39
00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: inside the twenty yard line last week against the forty

40
00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: nine ers and a franchise long seventy nine yard punt.

41
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: That was that punt muff by Brandon Aiyuk that resulted

42
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: in a wacky touchback. It's the second longest punt in

43
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: a game so far this season in the NFL, and

44
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: Sanchez becomes the first Colt to earn multiple AFC Special

45
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,040
Speaker 1: Teams Player of the Week honors in the same season

46
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 1: since Adam Vinati in two and thirteen, And if you

47
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 1: think about it, with another strong game on Sunday against Tennessee,

48
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 1: he has a good shot of perhaps winning a Special

49
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: Teams Player of the Month for October in the AFC.

50
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:33,959
Speaker 1: So that's a look at the Colts injury front on

51
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,280
Speaker 1: this first day of practice, and again, depth might be

52
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,040
Speaker 1: tested in the secondary as it has been the last

53
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. Speaking of that, we'll talk with Colts

54
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 1: cornerback Anthony Chesley coming up on the next segment about

55
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: the playing time he's received the last few weeks on

56
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: both defense and on special teams, and we'll also talk

57
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,280
Speaker 1: about his career journey as well since coming out of

58
00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: Coastal Carolina in two and nineteen. But the Colts have

59
00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 1: won three of their last four. They feel very confident

60
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 1: heading into this game. The Colts have put up thirty

61
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 1: points on offense and back to back games, and they're

62
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: so much better right now compared to the team that

63
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: play the Titans in Week number three. Since then, the

64
00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: Colts are averaging twenty seven a game in the last month.

65
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: That's good for seventh best in the NFL in that span.

66
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: They have the sixth best rushing attack in the NFL

67
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,399
Speaker 1: in that course of time, and their passing game has

68
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: become explosive eleven passing plays over twenty five yards in

69
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: the last month. That's good for third best in the NFL.

70
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 1: And the defense they're also pulling their way they've developed

71
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,959
Speaker 1: since Week three as well. They're giving up just seventeen

72
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 1: points per game since they last saw the Titans, and

73
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: they have ten takeaways in the last four games, including

74
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: four last week against the forty nine Ers. Those ten takeaways,

75
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: that's good for the top mark in the NFL since

76
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,640
Speaker 1: Week number three. And Carson Wentz was asked today to

77
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: compare his health now compared to the first Titans game,

78
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: and all he could do today was chuckle a little bit,

79
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,280
Speaker 1: because that was the game where he was compromised with

80
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 1: both ankle sprains coming off that Week two loss with

81
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: them when he developed those issues, and he said there

82
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: were snaps in that first Tennessee game where he felt

83
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 1: like he was just stuck in mud. The Colts lost

84
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: the game twenty five to sixteen, and the Titans brought

85
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: a lot of pressure knowing WinCE was compromised. But that's

86
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: not going to be the case on Sunday, which bodes

87
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: well for the Colts as they try to get back

88
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,679
Speaker 1: in the thick of the AFC South race. Elsewhere, Frank

89
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: Wright today talked about the offensive line and said he's

90
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 1: gonna wait until later in the week to name a

91
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: starter at right guard. Last week, Chris Reid mixed into

92
00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:32,839
Speaker 1: that spot with Mark Glewinsky with the return of Quittin

93
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 1: Nelson at left guard, and Reid actually out snapped Glewinsky

94
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,360
Speaker 1: for the game, even though he didn't get the start,

95
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 1: And I don't think it's an indictment on Glewnsky's play

96
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 1: at all. Reid just been very, very good this year

97
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: for the Colts, whether it's left guard or right guard.

98
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,640
Speaker 1: And now it's almost like the Colts have six starters

99
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,080
Speaker 1: on that offensive line in terms of experience and versatility.

100
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 1: By the way, Glewinsky, up until Sunday against the forty

101
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: nine Ers had missed a snap since Week fourteen of

102
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 1: the twenty eighteen season. Looking over to Tennessee, they're feeling

103
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,039
Speaker 1: confident as well heading into this game. They're on a

104
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:07,200
Speaker 1: three game winning streak and coming off two very impressive

105
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 1: home wins against Kansas City and Buffalo. Last week, they

106
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,920
Speaker 1: thrashed the Chiefs twenty seven to seven in a game

107
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: that wasn't even that close. They led twenty seven to

108
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,120
Speaker 1: nothing in a halftime. They outgained the Chiefs two seventy

109
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: seven to sixty seven in the first half and forced

110
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:25,359
Speaker 1: three turnovers. They also sacked Patrick Mahomes four times in

111
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 1: the game, and by holding Kansas City to just three points,

112
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 1: that was the lowest output for the Chiefs in a

113
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: game since two and twelve. And Tennessee looks like an

114
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 1: AFC contender, And of course, they're paced by Ryan Tannehill on,

115
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 1: Derrick Henry on offense, Henriette running back. He's led the

116
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 1: NFL and rushing in each of the last two years,

117
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: and he's the top runner so far this season through

118
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 1: seven games. He only needs one hundred and thirty nine

119
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: more yards to go over a thousand for the season,

120
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 1: and we're not even at in November yet, And with

121
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: a seventeen game season this year, he's on pace to

122
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: break the NFL's all time rushing record and rushing attempts

123
00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,480
Speaker 1: mark in a single season. The Titans on defense, that's

124
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,720
Speaker 1: definitely the weaker unit compared to their offense. Despite giving

125
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: up just three points of the Chiefs last week, they

126
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: have allowed at least thirty points in three games this season.

127
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,279
Speaker 1: They ranked twenty fourth in the NFL against the pass.

128
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,919
Speaker 1: But they're a much better unit when they have the

129
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: lead as compared too without it. As I said, they

130
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 1: played very aggressive against a banged up Carson Wins in

131
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 1: Week three, and they played pretty much third down defense

132
00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,359
Speaker 1: in terms of mentality the entire second half against the

133
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 1: Chiefs last week with that big lead. That unit is

134
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 1: led by Harold Landry. He's got seven and a half

135
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: sacks on the season, that's second most in the NFL,

136
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,840
Speaker 1: and former Colt Denico Autry has three and a half

137
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 1: sacks on the year, including two last week on Patrick Mahomes.

138
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: All right, time for a quick break when we come back.

139
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 1: We're gonna go one on one. I'm going one on

140
00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:52,480
Speaker 1: one with Colts cornerback Anthony Chesley, fresh off his first

141
00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 1: career takeaway against the forty nine Ers last Sunday. That's

142
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: coming up next on the Colts Daily Update. Right here

143
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 1: on ninety three five and one oh seven five. I'm

144
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: the Fan. Welcome back to the Colts Daily Update. A

145
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,080

Speaker 1: Home Solar Radio Studio. We're back again on the Daily Update.

Speaker 1: who notched his first career fumble recovery against the forty

153
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: nine ers on Sunday, and he joins us on the line. Now, Anthony,

154
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: thanks for the time today, How are you good man?

155
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: Thank you for having me. Absolutely, I want to go

156
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 1: back to that that driving rain in San Francisco. Man,

157
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,560
Speaker 1: that was an insane game. Have you ever played in

158
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 1: anything like that in your college career or peewee football,

159
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: anything close to that weather that you dealt with last Sunday,

160
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: I have it. Man. It was truly an experience. You know,

161
00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: the first half it was all cool, but in the

162
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 1: second half it can't raining. Like, man, it was cold, shivering,

163
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: but it was a great win. Great. What was the

164
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,360
Speaker 1: locker room celebration? Like? After that game, everybody's drenched in

165
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: rain and uh, you know, just take me the locker

166
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 1: room after that sloppy win didn't look great, but hey,

167
00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: win's a win. Oh man. The wind was amazing, Like

168
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 1: as soon as we got uh in the locker room,

169
00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 1: it was an instant celebration. At first we were, you know,

170
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 1: cold shivering, but instantly warmed up. Yeah, that that body

171
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: eat inside that locker room got everybody warmed up a

172
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: little bit. And in the game, you recorded your first

173
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 1: career fumble recovery against the forty nine ers. Talk to

174
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: me about that play. What went through your mind when

175
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,559
Speaker 1: you saw the piskin on the ground ready there for

176
00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: your taking. Yeah, man, what a blessing. Man. God is

177
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 1: good man, honestly, man, Darius Lena as always doing what

178
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:50,599
Speaker 1: he does best. Um, I'm going I'm going in for

179
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 1: a taco and suddenly I see the ball, So why

180
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: not fall on it? Why not fall on it? Now?

181
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: Do you do? You keep that ball? It's your your

182
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,359
Speaker 1: first career takeaway? Correct, Sure, I'm keeping that up for life.

183
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: I may put that on my toolstone. Man, I like it.

184
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: But you got a long way to go before you

185
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: get there, There's no doubt about that. But you've seen

186
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: a lot of snaps in the last couple of weeks, Anthony.

187
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 1: How is that helping your development and helping your confidence

188
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,679
Speaker 1: in your number three in the NFL? Oh? For sure, man,

189
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: it's necessary. You know, a lot of these snaps. First

190
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: and foremost is a great experience. You know, the best

191
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: teacher is experienced. So being out there playing nicol in

192
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,400
Speaker 1: corner has, you know, has has basically expanded my rising

193
00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 1: and allowed me to get, you know, just just a

194
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 1: better field of game at a higher level. Yeah. That's

195
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: Anthony Chesley with us third year in the NFL, first

196
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 1: year with the Indianapolis Colts. And I mean I'm telling you,

197
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 1: in August there at Graham Park up in Westfield, Anthony,

198
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 1: I took notice of you in training camp in the preseason.

199
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: Where do you think you've improved since the start of

200
00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: the season, you know, up until this point, right now,

201
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 1: heading into week eight, I would say, Man, it's more.

202
00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,960
Speaker 1: You know, I've accepted the fact of how mental this

203
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,920
Speaker 1: game is. So a lot of my shrides has been mental.

204
00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: You may you may not see it, but I see it.

205
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: You know. It's just a matter of staying calm, digesting

206
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: the whole formation, the whole playbook, updates, things of that nature.

207
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: I've become a better pro at that as opposed to

208
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,880
Speaker 1: my first year in the NFL. So it's just the

209
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,720
Speaker 1: whole maturation process of being in the NFL and learning

210
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: through all the bumps and bruises, no doubt about that.

211
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 1: Where do you think for you the game has slowed

212
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,560
Speaker 1: down from your rookie season. Um me, playing corner and

213
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: a nickel, it has allowed me to understand the game

214
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 1: from a different level. Um, I guess playing two like

215
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 1: you have no choice but to understand what everybody's doing

216
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,280
Speaker 1: on the field, and not only them on special teams.

217
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: I've learned. I've learned a lot as well. Like the

218
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:52,800
Speaker 1: player I was now and the player I was last

219
00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 1: year or even last week, it's different. I'm always growing,

220
00:10:56,520 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 1: always learning something new, so it never ends. Anthony Lee

221
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: with us. What do you like about this defense under

222
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 1: Mattie Refluce? What about the scheme? What about the way

223
00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: the Colts play suits you as a player? You know,

224
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: it's it's it's so fundamentally based. Um, We're all about

225
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: getting the ball out. So every day we could cost

226
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: to remind us get the ball out, no matter what happens.

227
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 1: Do you assignment, keep technique, but get the ball out.

228
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: So how can you not you know, get that? Yeah,

229
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 1: I mean you brought up Darius Leonard earlier as far

230
00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 1: as that goes, and his you know, just instinctive ability

231
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 1: to get the football out. How do you think that's

232
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,840
Speaker 1: rubbed off on you? Where do you think you've become

233
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: a better you know, takeaway player on defense? You no

234
00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 1: doubt I've become more alert, you know, more more of

235
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,880
Speaker 1: a ball hawk, more balls savvy. Um, Darius, he has it.

236
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: He truly has a gift. Man In one day, I

237
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 1: hope to be that way. But until then, I take

238
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: one day at a time. You know it'll be oriented,

239
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 1: but you know, but at the same time, understanding my

240
00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: job in my technique. That's Anthony Chesley with us third

241
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,560
Speaker 1: year in the NFL, the Colts cornerback with us, and

242
00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,720
Speaker 1: you've also embraced special teams as a way to stick

243
00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 1: in the NFL and carve out a nice career. How

244
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: much time, how much dedication goes into special teams for you,

245
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 1: Anthony A lot man started from Monday. Man, I'm just

246
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: you know, understand the personnel, understand how opponent, understand how

247
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,920
Speaker 1: I have to play from all four phases. Man, you

248
00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: know it's a Special teams is such an important job

249
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 1: that is overlooked by many. But if you if you know,

250
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: then you know special teams is one of the most

251
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 1: important plays in the NFL. So I've become accustomed to

252
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 1: it and you know, taking pride in it. I think

253
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,880
Speaker 1: a lot of people don't understand that, especially when you

254
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 1: watch film for special teams. When you're watching special Teams film, Anthony,

255
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: what all goes into that for the common fan that

256
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 1: may not understand that. Yeah, So basically I'm just looking

257
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 1: at um for Mason, looking how you know, how personnel,

258
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,199
Speaker 1: how they plan, how it just got fans? Is he

259
00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 1: more aggressive? Is he more physical? Where west side the

260
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: kicker tends the ball, the kicker tends to you know,

261
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 1: kick the ball to things of that nation. Things that

262
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: a fan won't even think about. Is everything that we

263
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: think about. So you know that's pretty much it. Anthony

264
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 1: Chesley is with us. Anthony, who are some guys that

265
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,839
Speaker 1: you've learned from that you've studied this year that again

266
00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 1: are rubbing off on you on this Colts defense so far,

267
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 1: I would say, man, Um, Kenny Moore, U, Exhavier Rods

268
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 1: t J. Carry a lot of older guys in the room.

269
00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 1: Who who has experienced those guys kind of you know,

270
00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 1: teach me a lot daily. Um, you know you never

271
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 1: know at all. So, like I said, a man is

272
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:38,079
Speaker 1: always learning, So I'm learning every day from everybody from

273
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you're a rookie or you event.

274
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 1: Something can be sarious. Now you've been with the Bengals,

275
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 1: you've been with the Texans and your short career since

276
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen, and you know you've been part of several

277
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: roster moves, Anthony, you see that a lot in the NFL.

278
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 1: How do you keep focused? How do you keep plugging away?

279
00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: Because you know those moves that just reveals that the

280
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: NFL foul can be a cold hearted, brutal business. But

281
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,080
Speaker 1: you have to keep plugging along. How do you do that? Yeah? Man, Honestly,

282
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 1: what I've learned is to, you know, control what I

283
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: can and be the rest of God. Um. A lot

284
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:14,720
Speaker 1: of the things in the NFL you have no control of.

285
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 1: So what I've learned, you know, I'm still learning that,

286
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 1: you know, do my job and let everything goes fault

287
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: and let the chips fallard they may if it meant

288
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 1: to be to be. You know, I just can't stress

289
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 1: over things that I have no control over, you know,

290
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 1: things that come when it's closed to happen. So that's

291
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 1: kind of what my parents tea, you know, um, priest

292
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: to me a lot. So it's finally starting to stick

293
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,920
Speaker 1: in and I'm starting to listen exactly. It's amazing how

294
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: how much mom and Dad actually know and the wisdom

295
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,920
Speaker 1: they can give you if you actually pay attention and listen. Um. Hey,

296
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: let's talk about the Titans. Aside from Derrick Henry obviously,

297
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 1: what makes their offense so difficult to deal with? Yeah, man,

298
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 1: So honestly right now they right now, man, the Titans,

299
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,400
Speaker 1: man there how you know, so they have at Tannehill.

300
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: He he um. He loves the scramble when he came,

301
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 1: you know, but at the end of the day, he's

302
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: a playmaker. So slants, play action, pass, those things of

303
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 1: that nature we have to stop. Of course, you have

304
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:18,160
Speaker 1: a j Brown and Julio Jones, so those are the

305
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: you know, those are the weapons that we have to stop.

306
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 1: So first and foremost it'd be just you know, knowing

307
00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: what to do and how to do it. Everything goes

308
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 1: to fall with their name. That's Anthony Chesley with US

309
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: Colts cornerback. And before I let you go, I know

310
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,080
Speaker 1: your time is precious getting ready for this game, Anthony.

311
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: But just a few minutes, let's talk about you. You

312
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 1: grew up in Maryland. You went to Coastal Carolina for college,

313
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: played football there. How did you end up at Coastal Carolina? Yeah? Man,

314
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 1: So I had come out of high school. I had

315
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: a couple offers, um, maybe four to five. The highs

316
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: off I had was Toledo, But um, I took a visit.

317
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 1: Long story short, I took a visit to Coastal Carolina

318
00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 1: and it was a bit of a coaster shock, you know,

319
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: Palm Trees Beach where I'm from you know, Maryland, DC area,

320
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: we don't have that, so been in love with the area, man,

321
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,600
Speaker 1: and and I thought, why not go here? It's not

322
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,720
Speaker 1: too far from home, still on the East Coast. Yeah,

323
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 1: and the most importantly my mom. She loved it, so

324
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,920
Speaker 1: I gotta listen to mom. Yeah, we're going back to

325
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: mom again. There's no doubt about that, all right. So,

326
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: so Coastal Carolina, the last couple of years, they've been

327
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,840
Speaker 1: one of the best college football programs in the country.

328
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: I think they ranked again this year in the top

329
00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 1: twenty five. When you were there, did you see this building?

330
00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 1: Did you see this much success coming within the program? Yeah?

331
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: For sure, Man Coast through when I was there, it

332
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 1: seems like every year we grew. When I got there,

333
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: first two years were in the FCS, then last two

334
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: years we were elevated to the FBSTO into the Sun Belt, right,

335
00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,320
Speaker 1: But it seems like every year things changed and it

336
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:49,920
Speaker 1: was kind of like, you know that that that upward progression.

337
00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: So now to see what those guys are doing now, man,

338
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: it's it's definitely a blessing to see that. Man. You know,

339
00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,360
Speaker 1: hard work always pays off, so things things have come

340
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 1: together for that program and that university so always good

341
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,919
Speaker 1: to see. Now, how many times have you been asked

342
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,520
Speaker 1: what a Shanta Clear is? Oh? So many, so many,

343
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 1: so many. Well, there's there's a lot of myths out

344
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,600
Speaker 1: there right on on coastal Carolina. And how they landed

345
00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,439
Speaker 1: on the Shanta Clear mascot? What is the story that

346
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,000
Speaker 1: you know to be true? I know that I've been told, Um,

347
00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:26,360
Speaker 1: a son of Clear is a fighter Roofter. So that's

348
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: what I was told coming in. I'm not sure things changed.

349
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,119
Speaker 1: That's what I was told is a fighter Roofter and

350
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,400
Speaker 1: it's not. And you know people mispronounced it all the time,

351
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: you know, always correct them. So did I get it?

352
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 1: How did you misnounce your last name? Man? You gotta correct?

353
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,879
Speaker 1: Did I get it right? What are you going with?

354
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,680
Speaker 1: So clear? A Shanta Clear? All right? See, we'll see

355
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: I already screwed it up. So that's that's why I'm

356
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,919
Speaker 1: on the outside. That's why you're on all right. Hey, lastly,

357
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: before I let you go, I mean you're a great

358
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: football player, obviously on this roster. What is Anthony Chesley

359
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: like outside of football? Well? I love the kids, man,

360
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:05,719
Speaker 1: I love to give back. I love playing chess, I'm

00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,040
