1
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:15,520
Speaker 1: You know who's how many zs it takes to spell Brasselton,

2
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 1: j P. It's at least one. And welcome in. It's

3
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 1: Jaguars Happy Hour and we're in Flowery Brands, just up

4
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: the road from brassels and Georgia at the Atlanta Falcons

5
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:33,520
Speaker 1: facility j P. Shadrick with Jeff Blagman after the second

6
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:38,240
Speaker 1: day of Jaguars Falcons joint practices preseason Week three coming

7
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,760
Speaker 1: up this Saturday at Mercedes has been Citium in downtown Atlanta.

8
00:00:41,840 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: The Jags and the Falcons coming up. We'll discuss the

9
00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: Jaguars playing time, or at least the idea for most

10
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 1: of the starters to not play in the game with

11
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: Jaguars analyst Jeff Blagman. Then at five o'clock the Doug

12
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: Peterson Show, we'll hear plenty from the head coach from

13
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 1: earlier this week, including earlier today. And here we are logs.

14
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know if I've seen a

15
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 1: Flowery Branch since we've been in Flowery Branch. Maybe that

16
00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 1: great myrtle behind us here might be as about as

17
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,839
Speaker 1: close as we get. But how are you? I'm done good?

18
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: And uh, this part of Georgia is awesome. I mean

19
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: it's beautiful. It's got rolling hills. The weather has been

20
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: perfect for two days of practice because you know, this

21
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 1: time of year up here it can be extremely hot.

22
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: And from the players standpoint, you couldn't have asked for

23
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: better overcast skies, uh with the threat of rain, but

24
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:31,279
Speaker 1: it really never did rain. Uh went perfect situation and

25
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: and the best part about the two days as a

26
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:38,960
Speaker 1: whole jp great work against an opponent that you you know,

27
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 1: or that is a different look for your offense and

28
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: your defense, and there was no fisticuffs or any extracurricular

29
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: stuff that can distract from the entire goal of the

30
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: whole thing, which is just getting better. The Falcons practice

31
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 1: last week against the New York Jets up there, and

32
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: now the second week in a row where they've had

33
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: another team to go against, and that was stated goal

34
00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: of Doug Peterson, you know, talking to his team, Hey,

35
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 1: we're not going to do that stuff. We're here to

36
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,000
Speaker 1: get some work done. They've got some guys coming back

37
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: on the field off injuries this week, so that was

38
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: a key to get those guys some work, keep those

39
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 1: guys healthy obviously, and then move forward into preseason Week three. Well,

40
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: and look, the Falcons had plenty of skirmishes when they

41
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,640
Speaker 1: were practicing with the Jets up in New York. And

42
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: that's look, appreciate the direction of the head coach, Doug

43
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,760
Speaker 1: Peterson making sure that the focus on where on where

44
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: it needs to be. You want it to be high intensity.

45
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the whole reason why you come and

46
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,919
Speaker 1: practice against a different team, because when you're at home

47
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 1: practicing against let's me, and you see each other all

48
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: the time, right, and so the familiarity that wouldn't make

49
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:47,400
Speaker 1: me particularly angry or raise my level of play against

50
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: you because I'm always dominating. Yeah, it's part of it,

51
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: I mean, you know. But my point is is that

52
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 1: you know, the the intensity naturally goes up when you

53
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,919
Speaker 1: face another team and in practice. And the other thing

54
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: is that there's a out here. I mean, it wasn't packed,

55
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,600
Speaker 1: but the Falcons allowed some people in, and so when

56
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 1: people are watching, the natural thing is that you want

57
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 1: to make sure that your performance is good, and so

58
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: the intensity goes up, the focus goes up, the concentration

59
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: goes up, I mean all of those things, and I

60
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: think it makes for a better practice. And also because

61
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,079
Speaker 1: you're facing. For example, look if I'm a pass rusher

62
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: and I'm facing Cam Robinson every day in practice, I'm

63
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: Josh Allen or Trayvon Walker. I'm only facing Cam Robinson.

64
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: I'm not facing a tackle that may have a different technique,

65
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: that may have a different body type. And so some

66
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: moves that work against Cam may not work against you know,

67
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: somebody else, and so you want to have the opportunity

68
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: to do different things and and so it just gives

69
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: you a different flavor and a different level of intensity,

70
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 1: and it is very productive in my opinion. And when

71
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: I when I was a young player, we used to

72
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: do it nearly every year, whether it was with the

73
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles or the Washington Redskins. And you know, of

74
00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 1: course that's what there was their name at that time,

75
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 1: and that's it was great work. I loved it. As

76
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 1: Jeff Lagerman, I'm j. P. Shadrick at Jaguars Happy Hour

77
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,920
Speaker 1: on tinton XL ninety two point five FM, Jaguars dot Com,

78
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 1: Jaguars Social Media, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, We're on Twitter at

79
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 1: JP Shadrick at Logs five six. The right Tackle competition, well,

80
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: it's been hot for a while. It continued with the

81
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: practices here in Flowery Branch yesterday and today. Doug Peterson

82
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: this morning before practice, well this afternoon, it was an

83
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: afternoon practice. Was asked about the right tackle position where

84
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 1: it stands heading into this weekend. We'll here from Doug

85
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 1: Peterson coming up. But yeah, it continues. They alternated pretty

86
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 1: much series yesterday, did a little of that today and

87
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,239
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson said, hey, they're gonna play in the game

88
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 1: on Saturday. Well, Walker Little did not finish practice today.

89
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: He was off to the side um with and he

90
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 1: was working with Will Richardson, who has a high ankle.

91
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,039
Speaker 1: I believe it is or an ankle injury of some kind,

92
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: and so Walker Little is hurt. Now. I think they

93
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 1: expect him to maybe be able to play in a

94
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 1: couple of days. They were just I think taking him

95
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:19,040
Speaker 1: out for precautionary reasons. But I think that position battle

96
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 1: is over, I do. I think John Taylor's is a

97
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 1: guy and Walker Little had a great opportunity, I mean

98
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 1: a great opportunity coming off the Hall of Fame game,

99
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:32,279
Speaker 1: which he played very well. He had a great opportunity

100
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:36,599
Speaker 1: to to supplant John Taylor with another strong performance the

101
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 1: next week against Cleveland what didn't happen. And in his

102
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: past game he didn't have a very strong game against

103
00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 1: the Pittsburgh Steelers, and then here against the Atlanta Falcons.

104
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 1: He's had some moments that weren't good. Not today because

105
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: like I said, he didn't finish practice, but yesterday weren't

106
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,920
Speaker 1: that weren't particularly good. And so uh, it's disappointing that

107
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,119
Speaker 1: because I expected Walker Little to compete at a higher

108
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,159
Speaker 1: level for that job, to make it really hard for

109
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: the coaches, if not to supplant Juan Taylor, and it

110
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,400
Speaker 1: didn't happen. Alright, So not at the end of the world,

111
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: though he's still he's still an important piece to what

112
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 1: this team can do if it's truly a done deal.

113
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 1: The best thing about this whole competition is that you've

114
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:21,039
Speaker 1: made that position better. Okay, whether it's Joan Taylor that's

115
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 1: won it or if it ended up being Walker Little,

116
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,559
Speaker 1: both of those guys have raised the level of play

117
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: of that position. And the reality is is that you'd

118
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: love to have a Joan Taylor that was self motivated

119
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 1: to get better over the last couple of years. But

120
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: the reality is he didn't have any competition, and sometimes

121
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 1: you gotta have a little push to get better. And uh,

122
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:43,359
Speaker 1: and I think this year was really good for Joan

123
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 1: Taylor and he knew that he had to get better.

124
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:48,839
Speaker 1: He's got a new offensive line coach. I thought his

125
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:52,240
Speaker 1: performances have gotten better. There's still some things that Joanna

126
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: needs to clean up. You know. The penalties are always

127
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: an issue and have been an issue with Juan. Those

128
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: need to get cleaned up. And the reality is is

129
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: that the competition is never officially over. Okay, So if

130
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,000
Speaker 1: Joan Taylor goes out in Week one in Washington and

131
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 1: doesn't play well, guess what happens. I mean, it depends

132
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: on how level that I'm not playing well reaches. But

133
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: if he doesn't play well, he won't keep that job.

134
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: But Walker little has got to get He's got to

135
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,560
Speaker 1: get better. And he had a good week, like I said,

136
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 1: the first week, but he didn't build upon it, and

137
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: it's a lost opportunity on his part. That's it's part

138
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,000
Speaker 1: of the growth process. Now. He hadn't played a lot

139
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: of football in a long time either. Let's continue in

140
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 1: the offensive line. We have some defensive talk coming up.

141
00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd back in the practice field and spoke with

142
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: Ashelan Sullivan yesterday. We'll hear from him a little bit later.

143
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:44,120
Speaker 1: We stay on the offensive line though, and that left

144
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: guard position, Ben Bartsch. The last week or so, it

145
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 1: has really been taking some reps there. But there's a

146
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: new man that has come in from a trade from

147
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,560
Speaker 1: the Green Bay Packers. Cole Van Landon has arrived. What

148
00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,560
Speaker 1: have you seen out of him so far? Has he

149
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: stood out at all the first couple of days after planes,

150
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 1: trains and automobiles to get here. Well, first off, you

151
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,600
Speaker 1: gotta give him some credit because he gets traded and

152
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: then very little sleep, gets on a plane and gets

153
00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: here and then essentially does a physical or early in

154
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 1: the morning, and I'll practice you go okay, And when

155
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 1: you're in that type of situation, it's you know, your

156
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 1: your new equipment, you probably got new cleats. I mean,

157
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: it's very different and you're not comfortable because I'm sure

158
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 1: that he didn't travel with all of his Green Bay equipment, right.

159
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: But Col Van Landing was a seventh round pick last

160
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 1: year the Green Bay Packers. I believe it was or

161
00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,960
Speaker 1: late round pick last year. The Jaguars reportedly gave up

162
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 1: a seventh round pick for him and today in practice,

163
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 1: I watched the offense more today. He worked mostly at

164
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 1: right guard. I expect him at some point to maybe

165
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,280
Speaker 1: even have an opportunity to play left guard. And if

166
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: Ben Bartch is not playing at a certain level, then look,

167
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 1: Cole van Landen, we'll have an opportunity to compete at

168
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 1: that left guard spot. But I like him. At college

169
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,720
Speaker 1: he was a left tackle and uh a pretty good one.

170
00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 1: And he's a guard in the NFL, though they look

171
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,040
Speaker 1: at him as uh. The mindset for him is, look,

172
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 1: he's a guard and maybe in a pinch can play

173
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: some right tackle for you and not left tackle. And UH,

174
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: when you trade for a guy at this point and

175
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: you give up a draft pick, you can pretty much

176
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: say he's on the roster pretty much censure. You're not

177
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 1: giving a draft pick up for a guy that uh

178
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: joined you for one week. You're not doing that. This

179
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: is they got confidence in him. They obviously have liked

180
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: his film and have been following him, and when given

181
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 1: the opportunity to trade for him, they did. And guard

182
00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 1: has been a spot a little bit of concern for

183
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 1: them because you know, Shatley can play guard, but he's

184
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:46,280
Speaker 1: not a natural guard. H Darryl Williams has kind of

185
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:49,520
Speaker 1: been a journeyman. Nick Ford's a young player that probably

186
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 1: can end up on practice squad, but you'd like to

187
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: have a little bit more depth there. And then now

188
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 1: they got it. The guy in the middle of that

189
00:09:55,960 --> 00:10:00,160
Speaker 1: offensive line is a rookie and we tend to forget that.

190
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 1: I think here in training camp and Luke fort Ner

191
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 1: draft picked this year, who obviously came in with what

192
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 1: three different degrees out of college. He's got his head

193
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 1: on his shoulders, but his play is really kind of

194
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 1: stepping up to death to that as well. Anytime you

195
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 1: talk about an offensive lineman and and it's not talking

196
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,679
Speaker 1: about him because he's been making mistakes or he's been

197
00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,560
Speaker 1: getting beat. It's sometimes you can take it for granted

198
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 1: that the performances where it's at and and look, I

199
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,760
Speaker 1: love the performance of Luke Fortner. I think he's out

200
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,720
Speaker 1: playing his draft status right now when he when he's playing,

201
00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:36,839
Speaker 1: he is, he's confident, he's aware, he's physical, he's getting

202
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,400
Speaker 1: to the second level of the linebackers. He moves very

203
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 1: well for a center. There's a lot of things to like.

204
00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:44,959
Speaker 1: If you had to do a redraft, I think you'd

205
00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 1: probably end up picking him in the second round instead

206
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 1: of the first. You know, pick the Jaguars ad in

207
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 1: the third round. That's how good I think he's been.

208
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: I mean, he literally he does not look look like

209
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: a rookie. And I was showing JP. You know, we

210
00:10:56,760 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: get this iPad film stuff here, and uh, we were

211
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,200
Speaker 1: looking at a play that that happened yesterday. And he's

212
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 1: got a uh defensive tackle that shades on his on

213
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 1: his nose to the opposite side, a blitzing linebacker and

214
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,720
Speaker 1: he helps out the guard on the other side and

215
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 1: then helps out the Dan Arnold who was lined up

216
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: as a fullback kind of thing. And it's like wow.

217
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: I mean, the awareness and the and the and the

218
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 1: calmness of of his play is impressive for a rookie.

219
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:26,920
Speaker 1: He get his hands on three guys on one play.

220
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,600
Speaker 1: He did three guys. It's pretty cool. Three guys impressive.

221
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: So that's a good start for him. We've got plenty

222
00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,559
Speaker 1: of head on Jaguars Happy Hour. We'll come back in

223
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 1: just a moment, and here from Devin Lloyd. He's been

224
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: back on the practice field this week and in good spirits.

225
00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:43,360

Speaker 1: Jaguars Digital Network. I'm just building it back up, um slowly.

232
00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,360
Speaker 1: They're trying to ease me into the practices and he's

233
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:15,800
Speaker 1: limiting my reps. But it was really good at strong,

234
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: stilling strength. Back up thy store right now as expected.

235
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: But I'll be ready to go Week one. That is

236
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:27,280
Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd, the Jaguars linebacker for the Jacksonville Jaguars, and

237
00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: Devin visiting with Ashlan Sullivan yesterday after practice and the

238
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: HDM of the team hotel. A little sore, but hey,

239
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 1: he was back out there today and Doug Peterson said,

240
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:40,800
Speaker 1: get ready thirty three. You're going in the game on

241
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 1: Saturday against the Falcons. About a quarter maybe. Yeah. I

242
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:45,839
Speaker 1: talked to him a little bit ago and he said

243
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: that I asked him how the hamstring was doing. He

244
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 1: said it was good, and and he said that he's

245
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: working his way in as far as the mental aspect

246
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 1: of it, but he didn't feel like that it was overwhelming.

247
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: So I mean that's that's a real positive because sometimes

248
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,720
Speaker 1: of the mental part of it can be overwhelming. But

249
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: from what I understand and and everything that has been

250
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: scouted about Devin Lloyd, the intangibles and the mental cooity

251
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 1: is is incredible, and so I think he's gonna be

252
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 1: just fine. But the problem is that you need reps, okay,

253
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 1: and until you get those reps, you're gonna be a

254
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 1: little bit behind. And that's just natural. So he will

255
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: play and I think the expectation is to play about

256
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 1: a quarter for with him and UH, but I still

257
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: believe when they go to the first game of the season,

258
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,360
Speaker 1: he may not be in the starting line up. It

259
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:37,960
Speaker 1: may be a situation where they have certain packages ready

260
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 1: for him to uh to gradually increase his exposure because

261
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:47,280
Speaker 1: Chad Muma and Chad Quarterman have more reps and so

262
00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,160
Speaker 1: there's a trust factor built in with the guys that

263
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 1: have had reps. But let me add to this and

264
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 1: that you know, watching Devin Lloyd a little bit in practice,

265
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 1: he's got some of the things that the other guys

266
00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 1: just can't do. To say, if if he's got those

267
00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: intangibles some things that they can't got the physical skills,

268
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: and you got to put them out there. Well you do,

269
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: but you can't expect him. And I know he said

270
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: he would be ready for for the opening game, but

271
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: to what level? And I think that that's a question

272
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: that the coaches are gonna have to manage as far

273
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: as the number of snaps that he gets and and

274
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: also the total number of plays that he gets exposed

275
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 1: to from a defensive standpoint. So I'm out here for

276
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: two days. We haven't seen him, of course in training

277
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:36,520
Speaker 1: camp really you know some you know, individual period stuff

278
00:14:36,560 --> 00:14:39,200
Speaker 1: the week the last week or so. But seeing him

279
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 1: out here the last two days, what stands out the

280
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: most about his About Devon, He's just athletic. His athleticism

281
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 1: is off the chart. I mean seriously, you know, from

282
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: a blitz standpoint, how slippery he is, how he runs,

283
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 1: how he moves. You know, when you watch Chad Muma,

284
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: they're just two different type of players. I Mean, Chad's

285
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:03,400
Speaker 1: like the old you know, three four big linebacker and

286
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: you know, and he and he and he moves kind

287
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 1: of like a linebacker a little bit, you know, whereas

288
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd. He almost when he moves, it's like is

289
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: he a running back a wide receiver. I mean, he's

290
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: just so fluid and and that's and that's fun to

291
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: watch because there's not many guys that have that fluidity

292
00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: to him at that position. And and I would say

293
00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:27,440
Speaker 1: that he is a total new breed linebacker of what

294
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,400
Speaker 1: the NFL game has become, because the NFL has become

295
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: sixty five plus percent of three wide receiver sets and

296
00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 1: nickel defense. And you need a linebacker that can run

297
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: and play in space. That's Devin Lloyd. But he can

298
00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: do more than that. He can blitz, he can pass

299
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 1: rush and uh, and it's fun to watch him. And

300
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: so I'm I'm anxious and looking forward to seeing his

301
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 1: first action on Saturday afternoon. He had more sacks last

302
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 1: season than Trayvon Walker did. That's how they used him

303
00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 1: at Utah. He's all around the football. He's making it

304
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: pag plays, he's blitzing, he's intercepting the ball, taking too

305
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 1: for touchdowns. I mean he's always there. Yeah, he does.

306
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 1: You know, he feels he's a he's a stat filler,

307
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: you know, every every category of stats that you can

308
00:16:11,360 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 1: have as a defensive player. Devin Lloyd is gonna have

309
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: a number in everyone. He's not gonna be without interceptions,

310
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:22,120
Speaker 1: or without sacks, or without TFLs, tackle for losses for

311
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 1: I know you didn't know that trying to be you know,

312
00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:26,800
Speaker 1: appreciate the dumb it down a little bit for you

313
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 1: jays come to you to learn football. Yeah yeah, but

314
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 1: I mean that's kind of how how the type of

315
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: player that he is in and so I look forward

316
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,440
Speaker 1: to seeing him play. Also, just a little note here,

317
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: you know some of the linebackers that the Jaguars have.

318
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 1: I mean, first of all, we know the trail and

319
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 1: Walker is just a giant. You know, you see him,

320
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 1: and you see Josh Allen. By the way, Josh Allen,

321
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,400
Speaker 1: we talked to him a little bit last night, Thank

322
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,840
Speaker 1: you very much, Josh. He actually bought us a little

323
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:57,120
Speaker 1: something something and but you know, he's such a wonderful

324
00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 1: guy and it's and it's great to interact with him.

325
00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: And he's asked him how much he was weighing. He's

326
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,000
Speaker 1: two hundred sixty pounds now and that's as big as

327
00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 1: he's ever been. And he looks great. And Josh has

328
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:09,399
Speaker 1: done a great job of taking a lot of these

329
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 1: guys under his wings, including Trayvon Walker and and other guys.

330
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 1: But you know the number of Georgia players that are

331
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,960
Speaker 1: on these two teams, I mean, it's pretty good number

332
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: of them. And we always are amazed at how big

333
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: like a guy like Trayvon Walker is. And and I

334
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 1: was watching the end of practice yesterday, and you know

335
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,199
Speaker 1: where I'm going with this, and Trayvon was hanging out

336
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: with one of these guys from the Falcons and I'm like,

337
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: oh my god, who's that guy? Who's that guy? I mean,

338
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,160
Speaker 1: that guy looks like a bodybuilder, right, I mean he's,

339
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 1: you know, all muscled up, big, I mean tall, like

340
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,240
Speaker 1: holy cow. And and today I figured it out and

341
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 1: it's Lorenzo Carter. I guess it was. He's a fifth

342
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 1: year player out of Georgia. And I mean, I'm talking

343
00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,880
Speaker 1: a big dude, big dude. And uh so the Georgia

344
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 1: guys were all kind of hanging out bond a little bit.

345
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 1: You know. Of course, Tyson Campbell's in that mix. But

346
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 1: but good to see. This is Jaguars Happy Hour j P.

347
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:05,360
Speaker 1: Shadrick with Jeff Logan The Doug Peterson Show coming up

348
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 1: at five o'clock staying on linebackers. Another guy who has

349
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: spent his entire professional career in the state of Georgia

350
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: until this year. He's now with Jacksonville. It's Foyer Leukin.

351
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,919
Speaker 1: He was with the Atlanta Falcons. Of course, spoke with

352
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 1: the media here after practice today. You can catch that

353
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:26,240
Speaker 1: on Jaguars dot com. And a guy who built his

354
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 1: reputation over the years different roles and then finally the

355
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 1: last couple of years was a regular starter. We know

356
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 1: the numbers in his last year in Atlanta. So there

357
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: are a lot of people excited to see him back

358
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 1: around here today after what he did the last couple

359
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 1: of years for the Falcons. Well, and you can tell that. Look,

360
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 1: the Falcons would have loved to have kept him, I think,

361
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,600
Speaker 1: but salary cap. You know, you've got to make some

362
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: hard decisions, and the fact Falcons had to h and

363
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,359
Speaker 1: chose to address some of their cap issues head on,

364
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 1: and we'll take their lumps and then continue to build

365
00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,800
Speaker 1: this roster with the new general manager and head coach

366
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,080
Speaker 1: in place for very short period of time. That's fount No,

367
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,280
Speaker 1: Terry fault No the general manager, and Author Smith the

368
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:08,119
Speaker 1: head coach. But it was cool. And that after Foia

369
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,119
Speaker 1: Lucan dot got done with the interview here that you

370
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 1: can see on Jaguars dot com, he did an interview

371
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,399
Speaker 1: with one of the local Atlanta the TV stations and

372
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 1: as he was doing the interview, there goes author Smith

373
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,680
Speaker 1: and he's like, you know, talking to a foyer while

374
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: he's doing the interview, and it's you know, and it's

375
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: all healthy banner and and you could just tell the

376
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:30,719
Speaker 1: love for Foia Lucan here in Atlanta, and and the

377
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 1: type of person he is, type of player that he

378
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 1: was for the Atlanta Falcons, and that's good to see

379
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 1: because you know, that's the kind of person that you

380
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: were hoping you were gonna get and that's I think

381
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: exactly what you got. Signed autographs right behind our tent

382
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 1: here they are fans hanging out today and went over

383
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: after his work and his adjustment period. I mean, look

384
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:50,480
Speaker 1: at the Jaguars have a new scheme and so there's

385
00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,719
Speaker 1: an adjustment period for him, and and and the adjustment

386
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 1: hasn't been flawless, you know, without some mistakes. And the

387
00:19:57,480 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 1: Cleveland game, you know, he got a bootleg there first

388
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: play the aime, you know, kind of mistake there, and

389
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,119
Speaker 1: so there's an adjustment period and I expect that for you.

390
00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: Just like most veteran players, he will pick it up.

391
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,040
Speaker 1: But it's not it's not he's not a you know,

392
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 1: perfect linebacker ready to go ahead and just be a

393
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 1: great player right out of the gate. I think there's

394
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: gonna be an adjustment period with him as well, learning

395
00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 1: the new system. We're counting on him kind of being

396
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,119
Speaker 1: that rock in the middle that keeps everybody on the

397
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,880
Speaker 1: same page. And in a perfect world, JP, you would

398
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 1: have with a with a new coordinator, you would love

399
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,680
Speaker 1: to have somebody that came from his program that knew

400
00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 1: the system, that would not have a big adjustment with

401
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 1: that system, that can actually help be the coach on

402
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 1: the field. And uh, and at some point Foyer will

403
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 1: get to that point. You know. Look, he's a smart

404
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,439
Speaker 1: guy and he went to Yale. He didn't go to Alabama,

405
00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:49,679
Speaker 1: so I mean he's an educated guy and he's smart

406
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 1: and and uh and he's gonna get it quick. So

407
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: that's a real positive. Yeah, good for him. Good for

408
00:20:56,040 --> 00:21:00,440
Speaker 1: him that I deree it. I heard, Uh, that's Jeff

409
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 1: Lagoano JP Shadrick. Alright, so you mentioned Trayvon Walker and

410
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,399
Speaker 1: Josh Allen. You know, the question now is you know

411
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 1: how many of those outside guys do they keep? What

412
00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 1: do they keep? Who do they keep on this roster.

413
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: That's something we have to watch in this game on

414
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: Saturday against the Falcons. How deep do they go? What's

415
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:23,679
Speaker 1: your We're not cutting the team today, but we're talking

416
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 1: about it. Look when you're getting ready to play the

417
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 1: last preseason game, I mean, roster prediction is one of

418
00:21:32,040 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 1: the topics that everybody wants to talk about because they

419
00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: cut it on Tuesday, officially Tuesday down to and uh

420
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,360
Speaker 1: and I think that's an interesting watching and we're talking

421
00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:44,440
Speaker 1: about outside linebacker and I saw outside linebacker is gonna

422
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 1: be interesting from the standpoint of you know, we know

423
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:49,880
Speaker 1: that Josh Allen and Trayvon Walker are gonna be there,

424
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,000
Speaker 1: and I expect Caleb and Chase on when that's a

425
00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 1: conversation in itself, but I expect him to be on

426
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,199
Speaker 1: the roster as well. And then once you get beyond that,

427
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:00,400
Speaker 1: I think like a Deshaun Dixon is a guy that's

428
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 1: gonna end up on the practice squad. But now you're

429
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:09,200
Speaker 1: talking who's next? Okay, And from the standpoint of evaluating

430
00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: the preseason games, Jamir Jones has probably had the next

431
00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:17,720
Speaker 1: best performance number forty. If you're watching on TV and

432
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 1: his mom or family, mustard must member must have been here,

433
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 1: because you don't get a forty Jaguars jersey and here

434
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:29,679
Speaker 1: in Atlanta a practice unless somebody's family, right. But you know,

435
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:33,280
Speaker 1: the thing that you have to factor in is that Smoot,

436
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,959
Speaker 1: Duan Smoot and arden Key can also have the positional

437
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 1: flexibility to play as an outside linebacker. So are you

438
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 1: counting on them to help you out at that outside

439
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,600
Speaker 1: linebacker position, maybe therefore being a little bit heavier at

440
00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 1: a different position. So that's I think it's gonna be

441
00:22:54,960 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 1: an interesting watch. Pluty ahead on Jaguars Happy Hour, come

442
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: back and discuss the quarterback Trevor Lawrence. How his week

Speaker 1: just getting to go up against different team. You know,

451
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 1: it's so used to go against our guys. You see

452
00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,960
Speaker 1: these the same looks, but also a lot of different stuff,

453
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,840
Speaker 1: you know, the defensive experiment and stuff on you. And

454
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 1: then to come out here and really not do a

455
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 1: whole lot of prep because you're coming here to just

456
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: get some work in and just see different you know,

457
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,120
Speaker 1: structures and all that and have to adjust on the fly.

458
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 1: You know, we have our base rules, but really putting

459
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,200
Speaker 1: them to the test and really challenges us just to communicate,

460
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 1: especially up the front and then all the skill group

461
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 1: and making sure we're on the same page. She had

462
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,440
Speaker 1: a bunch of different coverages than we're used to from

463
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:08,239
Speaker 1: our defense. So, um, it's good. You know, it challenges you. Um.

464
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 1: I thought we had a great day to day. I

465
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 1: thought we brought a lot of intensity and look sharp.

466
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:18,160
Speaker 1: So it's good. That's Trevor Lawrence, Jaguars quarterback yesterday after practice.

467
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 1: Welcome back. It's Jaguars Happy Hour. We're at the Atlanta

468
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 1: Falcons facility and Flowery Branch, Georgia. JP Shadrick with Jeff Flagman,

469
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 1: our entire crew here on site. And back in Jacksonville,

470
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,719
Speaker 1: and we'll have the Doug Peterson Show at five o'clock

471
00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,880
Speaker 1: today as well, from right here in this very same

472
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,520
Speaker 1: parking lot. Sit again right now, we're in a tent

473
00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 1: with folding chairs that are not very comfortable. By the way, Hey,

474
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,760
Speaker 1: it's part of it. It's training camp. It's almost over,

475
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 1: and now it's out of the regular season here very soon.

476
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 1: So the quarterback there, all right? So I keep getting

477
00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 1: through these interviews, and I keep getting asked, what's Trevor

478
00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,400
Speaker 1: Lawrence look like? What's he how's he can he overcome

479
00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 1: all of last year and all these things? I think

480
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,320
Speaker 1: he's past all that. How's he looked to you in

481
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: general in this training camp before we get to the

482
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 1: last two days, like he said, justin like a young quarterback.

483
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:10,359
Speaker 1: And then he's got moments that you go, that's pretty good.

484
00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:11,960
Speaker 1: And then you have moments you go, you know, you

485
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: gotta be faster with your eyes, or hey, you gotta

486
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,680
Speaker 1: be more accurate at the ball. But the nice thing,

487
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,440
Speaker 1: whichever is at the command of the offense is there.

488
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 1: You don't ever have issues with snap counts, fall starts,

489
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 1: you know, having to start to play over because somebody's

490
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 1: not lining up right, he's correcting, he's directing the traffic

491
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,760
Speaker 1: and and very aware of what the system is. But

492
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 1: the experience of being in the system, you can tell

493
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,760
Speaker 1: is not quite there yet. Sometimes he's late with his eyes.

494
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: Doug talked about that in the pregame interview with you

495
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: last week j P about he wanted to have his

496
00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,399
Speaker 1: eyes speed up a little bit. Would you see that

497
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: in the game? I thought that there were moments that

498
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 1: his eyes still needed to be sped off. And uh,

499
00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,880
Speaker 1: but that's what that's what you're working for. I mean, look,

500
00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 1: you're not a you're not a final product, you know,

501
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,480
Speaker 1: going into the or finishing out of the three preseason games.

502
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,959
Speaker 1: It takes time. I mean, there's a lot of quarterbacks

503
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 1: that were fortunate to have the same system for a

504
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 1: very long period of time and there were great quarterbacks

505
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,280
Speaker 1: and hopefully Trevor can have the same type of success.

506
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:10,959
Speaker 1: But you've got to get him comfortable in the system,

507
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 1: and then also the coaches need to get comfortable from

508
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 1: the standpoint of knowing what he does best. And that's

509
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 1: the whole process in and of itself. And I like

510
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 1: the way he's working. He continues to work. I thought

511
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 1: that so far from what I've seen, because yesterday I'm

512
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: I watched mostly the defensive side of the ball, and

513
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,640
Speaker 1: they're on two different fields that you can't watch both

514
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,919
Speaker 1: and watch defensive. Now I'm watching Trevor on offense, and

515
00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,760
Speaker 1: everything that I'm seeing so far has been his. He's

516
00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:38,080
Speaker 1: he's speeding it up a little bit and that's what

517
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,639
Speaker 1: it takes. And and and the action that he got

518
00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: in the practice yesterday and then the action today is

519
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 1: going to be essentially all the work that he's gonna

520
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 1: get because we're not expecting to see many starters, if any,

521
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 1: playing on Saturday afternoon, and he will not come close

522
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 1: to anywhere between the lines. At least will be on

523
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,400
Speaker 1: the sideline of course helping everybody out, but he will

524
00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,000
Speaker 1: not play in the game. There are some practices next week,

525
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 1: but obviously probably a lighter tempo, I would guess. And

526
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 1: I mean you can still, as if you're head coach

527
00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: Doug Peterson, you still I mean you can't. And that's

528
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,720
Speaker 1: the thing that I like about Doug Peterson. His mindset

529
00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: is that you're always continuing to work to get better

530
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,239
Speaker 1: and that it's a process, and that process doesn't end

531
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: until you know, we start to reach who we want

532
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:29,639
Speaker 1: to be towards the end of the season. So he

533
00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:34,160
Speaker 1: realizes that every hour that he has of being able

534
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: to take his team on the football field, because all

535
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: that is regulated by the collective bargaining agreement, It's not

536
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:41,439
Speaker 1: like you have a ton of opportunity. So when you

537
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to put him in pads and to

538
00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 1: get work done, you know, even though that you're getting

539
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 1: ready to play your last preseason game, doesn't mean that

540
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: you stop the work. I mean, it means that you

541
00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 1: maybe dial some things back, but you know, and Duct

542
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,199
Speaker 1: also talked about that, and because you got the two

543
00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,959
Speaker 1: week window between you know, this last game that's come

544
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 1: and up and then the opener, that they will use

545
00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 1: that opportunity to look at their first three opponents as

546
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 1: a whole. But you still continue to work your craft,

547
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:14,679
Speaker 1: your techniques and and your assignment awareness of the system.

548
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: So I mean that doesn't stop Jaguars Happy. R J. P.

553
00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:36,720
Speaker 1: this weekend's game, this Saturday's game against the Falcons. C J. Bethard,

554
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: as you said in the broadcast last week on radio,

555
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 1: and just didn't look totally right when he was running around.

556
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,720
Speaker 1: Wasn't healthy. Doug Peterson then addressed that earlier this week,

557
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 1: said the same thing. Jake Luton is back in the

558
00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 1: fold now he and Perry will most likely split the

559
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: time Saturday against the Falcons. Yeah, because they're gonna hold

560
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: c J. Beethord out because they want to to allow

561
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,200
Speaker 1: him to continue to get better. And that's a concern

562
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,000
Speaker 1: a little bit now. I mean, look, the reality is

563
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:08,600
Speaker 1: if you don't have your starting quarterback, you're not gonna

564
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: be very good anyway in most instances. Well, this head

565
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 1: coach won a Super Bowl with a backup quarter anybody

566
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 1: would know the importance of a backup quarterback. It's Doug Peterson,

567
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: but he was one and he won a Super Bowl.

568
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: But it's disappointing from the standpoint of Okay, you already

569
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 1: have you got two running backs that are coming back

570
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 1: from an injury, and now you got a backup quarterback

571
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:34,480
Speaker 1: coming back from an injury. And he I mean, you'd

572
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 1: like to have c J. Beethor showing the coaches what

573
00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,560
Speaker 1: he can do to earn the trust, you know, their trust.

574
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,520
Speaker 1: And when we saw him against Pittsburgh, when he broke

575
00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 1: out of that pocket, it was like that, that's not healthy.

576
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 1: And he had a pretty good I guess a growing

577
00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: strain going back to the very end of the o T,

578
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:57,920
Speaker 1: a minicamp, whatever it was, and we're talking about once

579
00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,280
Speaker 1: you get to the open and that's about three months. Months.

580
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 1: Three months is a long time to have an injury

581
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 1: to continue to linger. So my question is a lot

582
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,240
Speaker 1: of people may assume that, Okay, well, they brought Jake

583
00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:10,920
Speaker 1: Luton back just so that he could get through this

584
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 1: game with another quarterback. Well, is that the case or

585
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: are they worried maybe about the health of c J.

586
00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 1: Best Bethord going in the regular season. Are they worried

587
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,480
Speaker 1: about his performance? I don't know, I mean, but it's

588
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 1: these are all valid questions. I think when you have

589
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: a guy that's not healthy and then as if you're

590
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 1: running this football team and coaching his football team, then

591
00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: you have to make sure that you're doing what's best

592
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,600
Speaker 1: for the football team and not what's best for c. J. Bethord.

593
00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: So that's something just to wash and you know, maybe

594
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 1: he can be completely healthy and be ready to go

595
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 1: for the season opener, but you have to prepare like

596
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 1: he may not be based upon what you saw against

597
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and he's not playing this week, you might have

598
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 1: to prepare for something else. We just had a military

599
00:30:57,320 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 1: fly by here in Flowery Branch. I think some helicopters

600
00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,080
Speaker 1: flying by for Jaguars. Happy. We're glad you're along with

601
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 1: us today, and time now for the injury report presented

602
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:09,200
Speaker 1: by Baptist Health and the Jacksonville Orthopedic Institute, the official

603
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 1: sports medicine provider of the Jacksonville Jaguars. Will note three

604
00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:17,360
Speaker 1: names today. Fully, Photokasi had the calf issue last preseason game.

605
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,959
Speaker 1: He's been off to the side. I talked to him

606
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 1: coming off today briefly, I said, how you do. How

607
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 1: you doing? He's like, we're getting there and he expects

608
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 1: to be ready, he said, but that yeah, that is

609
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 1: a little bit of a concern. Well, and the reason

610
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: that you're you're concerned, I think he's your your best

611
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: defensive lineman and you brought him in to have a

612
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:37,920
Speaker 1: big role and he's gonna with you one of those big,

613
00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,640
Speaker 1: powerful guys that can stop the run but also give

614
00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: you some push of the pocket. And from a pass

615
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:46,560
Speaker 1: rush standpoint, he can play the an end, he can

616
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 1: play the nose in this defense, and you really don't

617
00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: have a whole lot of depth there. I think that's

618
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: a position that the Jaguars will watch closely once the

619
00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:58,480
Speaker 1: cuts start to come in, maybe picking up you know,

620
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:00,480
Speaker 1: whether it's a veteran guy or may be a young

621
00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 1: guy that they feel good about because you don't. I mean, look, JP,

622
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 1: reality is fully Fotokosi, Devon Hamilton's and Roy Robertson Harris

623
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,960
Speaker 1: or You're you're starting guys. Who's your next big guy

624
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 1: that you really trust? Yeah, Basis probably Gotsis just because

625
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: you know he's been around a little bit and he's

626
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,480
Speaker 1: a veteran player. But then, do you have anything that

627
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 1: you feel really good about other than that? I mean,

628
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 1: Joe j to Fell, I mean, look, second year player

629
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,840
Speaker 1: was a fourth round pick. Last year has been kind

630
00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: of nondescript, unimpressive. We've mentioned earlier Smoot and Key and

631
00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 1: those guys can kind of go in there, but yeah,

632
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,160
Speaker 1: they're not They're not them. Those big guys. The immovable

633
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: objects are the guys that can, you know, really kind

634
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: of control the line of scrimmage. And and so if

635
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 1: you can find another one of those guys, that would

636
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,280
Speaker 1: be nice, and you're gonna have to probably look elsewhere

637
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:55,000
Speaker 1: because I don't think you have it on the roster

638
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,200
Speaker 1: right now. And so if the Fatcazi thing, if he

639
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 1: can't go, now you're really thin at that position. And

640
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,400
Speaker 1: then now it's like, Okay, I'm not saying you start panicking,

641
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: but you start to go. We need to get serious

642
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 1: and we need to find somebody that can fill that role.

643
00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 1: Another name on the list Will Richardson Jr. Off to

644
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 1: the side. Still you mentioned, you know, he's been out

645
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 1: for a little bit now with what an ankle issue. Um,

646
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 1: so we'll see how long that lasts for him. He's

647
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 1: been around here for a while. And then James Robinson

648
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: still works and working his way back getting time and

649
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: team eleven on eleven activity even here in Atlanta. Still

650
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,240
Speaker 1: has that orange jersey on. They've been trying to take

651
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: it easy with him, the the Falcons even keeping clear

652
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:35,800
Speaker 1: for the most part of him. He had a yellow

653
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:39,720
Speaker 1: jersey on today, Okay, and so I don't know what

654
00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,880
Speaker 1: that means. Well, with all these colors, all these designations

655
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 1: red typically, I mean, think about it. It's like like

656
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,840
Speaker 1: stoplight red means stop, don't hit, don't touch, okay, all

657
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,400
Speaker 1: limits yellow means just just be cautious, okay when you're

658
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 1: approaching them seriously. Because you could tell that the practice

659
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:59,680
Speaker 1: yesterday was a little different than the practice today. Yesterday

660
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 1: he was kind of you know, a little bit, you know,

661
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,080
Speaker 1: stay away from him. But anyway, I think he's gonna

662
00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 1: be ready for the opener. Is he gonna be the

663
00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:12,040
Speaker 1: one James Robinson of old? I don't think so, but

664
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,879
Speaker 1: I think he can still be pretty good and this

665
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:16,439
Speaker 1: is one of the and he's at the point now,

666
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 1: I think, in the in the rehab process to where

667
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: now you just need to play, and now when you play,

668
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: you're going to continue to get better and then accomplish.

669
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:27,919
Speaker 1: You know, because if you try to put a number

670
00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:29,760
Speaker 1: on the percentage that he is, I mean I if

671
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,080
Speaker 1: I had to do it, I'd say in the nineties somewhere,

672
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:37,440
Speaker 1: and so the last numbers of percent how do you

673
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 1: how do you reach that? And I'll give you something

674
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: similar when when I had my A C. L. Going

675
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 1: back into the year, coming back the next year. You

676
00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:51,759
Speaker 1: sometimes you had to to think about making that part

677
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:55,520
Speaker 1: of your body move, and so you're consciously trying to

678
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 1: get pieces to work naturally. But it wasn't something that

679
00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,880
Speaker 1: just happened. And then so you start to play and

680
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,000
Speaker 1: now you're working through the process and all of a sudden,

681
00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 1: you know, a month into it, I was like, you

682
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,760
Speaker 1: know what, I'm not even thinking about it. Everything's working

683
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: better now. So it's uh, And I think that's gonna

684
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,520
Speaker 1: be the thing for James and hopefully he can be

685
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 1: available because I think there's a little bit of a

686
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 1: concern for depth at the running back position. And the

687
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,279
Speaker 1: good thing is that when he comes back, it's not

688
00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,439
Speaker 1: like you're gonna be expecting him to carry the load

689
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 1: and carry five times a game. You got Travis etn

690
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 1: that's gonna be sharing that load. Uh. That sounds to

691
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,440
Speaker 1: me like a position where they could exercise that waiver

692
00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 1: position as well. Yeah, they could, and they like Snoop Connor. Uh,

693
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 1: you know, because obviously he's a draft pick. Uh. To me,

694
00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,959
Speaker 1: I think this is a little different system, I think

695
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:48,080
Speaker 1: than what would fit him the best. Snoop Connor is

696
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,880
Speaker 1: a is a big, powerful one cut back. This offense

697
00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:55,160
Speaker 1: runs a little bit more zone where the running backs

698
00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:57,759
Speaker 1: kind of stretch it and then picked the whole and

699
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 1: that I don't think that that there's an adjustment area

700
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:02,719
Speaker 1: for Snoop Connor and it's not. It doesn't fit him

701
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: just yet. Canny. Can he work his way into it?

702
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:08,400
Speaker 1: You hope so, because you know, you you've got some

703
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,359
Speaker 1: draft equity in that. But but right now it's just

704
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: been kind of you know, if how's he looked way okay,

705
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 1: you know, but I mean, look at the numbers, right,

706
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 1: I mean, the numbers of of him rushing the football

707
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,480
Speaker 1: are are kind of are what they aren't Rock arm

708
00:36:23,600 --> 00:36:26,880
Speaker 1: armstead Is numbers are just kind of and Rock doesn't

709
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,759
Speaker 1: make a whole lot of guys miss and Rocks had

710
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,839
Speaker 1: a lot of opportunity to shows Whears in the first

711
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,600
Speaker 1: couple of years of his career and really, you know,

712
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,920
Speaker 1: it hasn't been able to impress anybody to where they're like, wow,

713
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 1: this guy's pretty good, you know. So I mean that's

714
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,360
Speaker 1: something that look, you, if you're a Jaguars fan and

715
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: you're a Jaguars coach, you got your fingers crossed that

716
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: that James Robbinson and Travis Etn are going to be

717
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:55,480
Speaker 1: available for you throughout the year. It's a scientific designation, okay,

718
00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 1: but I know what you meant exactly. It's perfectly. You know,

719
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:03,279
Speaker 1: there's different and there was like, you know, that's not good, okay,

720
00:37:03,320 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 1: and then you got ain' not bad and you got yeah,

721
00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,720
Speaker 1: that's pretty good. Right, let's take a good time about

722
00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:15,120
Speaker 1: we'll come back some final thoughts ahead of this preseason

723
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:18,319
Speaker 1: Week three game coming up Saturday in Atlanta and then

724
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 1: at five o'clock the Doug Peterson Show. And if you're

725
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 1: looking for the m v P of the truck game,

726
00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:27,080
Speaker 1: then look no further than four f one fifty. Loaded

727
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:31,279
Speaker 1: with impressive capability and designed to dominate, work play and

728
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:35,319
Speaker 1: everything in between. This truck makes tough look easy. Your

729
00:37:35,400 --> 00:37:49,319
Speaker 1: local Ford Dealer, proud partner of the Jacksonville Jaguars, Welcome back.

730
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: It's Jaguars Happy Hour. J P. Shadrick with Jeff Flagman

731
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 1: from Flowery Branch, Georgia, the home of the Atlanta Falcons

732
00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:02,399
Speaker 1: facility and their training camp. But beauty, isn't it? Yeah?

733
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,640
Speaker 1: The the original billion and was built years ago and

734
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:08,840
Speaker 1: uh I don't remember that the exact year. Maybe you

735
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 1: can pull up the history of it, but it was

736
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,120
Speaker 1: the building and then the fields, and then they added

737
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 1: they have this whole dorm slash apartment facility on the

738
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 1: far side that's actually on the so I think like acres,

739
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:26,400
Speaker 1: the grounds are considered here and they have enough housing

740
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:29,520
Speaker 1: there to literally house the entire team coaching staff and

741
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:33,000
Speaker 1: some other staff, which is incredible. And they actually used

742
00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: that for training camp and then they try to depart

743
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: the dorms completely and about mid September, according to a

744
00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,359
Speaker 1: team president Rich McKay I talked with yesterday about it.

745
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:46,280
Speaker 1: And then they expanded this facility and added more going

746
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 1: to the west as the as we're looking at it.

747
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:52,839
Speaker 1: And then they built a complete indoor facility that's on

748
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:56,239
Speaker 1: a little lower level of terrain, and then they attached

749
00:38:56,360 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 1: this um uh medical facility thing onto that. And now

750
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 1: they're they're adding a whole new digital wing which is

751
00:39:06,560 --> 00:39:10,080
Speaker 1: for the all the different elements that now have become

752
00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 1: in house broadcasting, I guess for the Atlanta Falcons. I mean,

753
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:16,279
Speaker 1: it's it's quite the facility now. It's it's right up

754
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 1: there with the Minnesota Vikings and uh O, gosh, the

755
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 1: Seattle Seahawks have an incredible facility. All the latest and

756
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,360
Speaker 1: grace facility the arms race has has reached the NFL,

757
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,879
Speaker 1: and this is one of the in terms of that

758
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,359
Speaker 1: Arms Races is one of the older of the arms race.

759
00:39:32,400 --> 00:39:34,359
Speaker 1: I mean there's been here but almost twenty years, right,

760
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:37,920
Speaker 1: and this building has been constantly up there. I mean,

761
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: if this doesn't look twenty or field twenty, have you

762
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,680
Speaker 1: ever been on the inside. When Mike Smith was the

763
00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 1: head coach here. I came and visited Smithy and uh,

764
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 1: and he gave me the tour and everything, and it

765
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 1: was great. I mean, and uh, it does. I mean

766
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:54,440
Speaker 1: it literally it looks like every year they're doing something

767
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:57,439
Speaker 1: to make sure that it's it's keeping up with the time,

768
00:39:57,520 --> 00:39:59,919
Speaker 1: so to speak, because it isn't. It is a true

769
00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:03,880
Speaker 1: incredible facility. And I will say that it is about

770
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:08,760
Speaker 1: a thirty to forty minute drive to the northern suburbs

771
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:11,120
Speaker 1: of Atlanta from here. You're up here a little bit. Yeah,

772
00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 1: you're out of here in Flowering Branch. You probably can

773
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,960
Speaker 1: get to we're uh, what's in the town to the

774
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,840
Speaker 1: west of here, or excuse me, to the east of

775
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,359
Speaker 1: here where the University of Georgia is at it would

776
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,799
Speaker 1: be Athens. Athens. You can get to Athens probably just

777
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: as fast as you can to Atlanta. Yeah, I mean,

778
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 1: it's it's kind of up here now, it's up kind

779
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,400
Speaker 1: of northeast and um, you know, so there you go.

780
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,160
Speaker 1: But it's it's nice, it's kind of up out of

781
00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:35,960
Speaker 1: the way and you can just focus on business. Now.

782
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,600
Speaker 1: When they built here in what twenty years ago, there

783
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:40,839
Speaker 1: was nothing out here. It has grown up a lot

784
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: since then, So there is the option. At least I

785
00:40:44,160 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: can tell you if if you if they were thinking

786
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:53,160
Speaker 1: about building a facility somewhere in downtown Atlanta, can you

787
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:56,600
Speaker 1: imagine the number of tardies that you would have from

788
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,720
Speaker 1: people trying to get the facility with the Atlanta traffic

789
00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 1: and what it is? Tough, brutal, that's one brutal. At

790
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 1: least out here you're going to opposite traffic the whole thing. So, uh,

791
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 1: this Saturday, you'll get to battle some of the Atlanta

792
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 1: traffic in for a clock kickoff at Mercedes has been

793
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,759
Speaker 1: Stadium in downtown Atlanta. The Jaguars and the Falcons preseason

794
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: Week number three Jaguars starters, for the most part, are

795
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,919
Speaker 1: not expected to play. As Doug Peterson said earlier this week,

796
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:28,560
Speaker 1: you might see the right tackles and you'll probably see

797
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,040
Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd. Those would be about it. It sounds like

798
00:41:31,080 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 1: it for the starters. Well, the real the reality of

799
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:37,640
Speaker 1: it is is that this is an evaluation game. You know,

800
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure that look, they know who their starters are.

801
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,040
Speaker 1: Those are the ones that probably aren't gonna be playing much.

802
00:41:42,800 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 1: But you've got some decisions to make at the back

803
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:49,319
Speaker 1: end of your roster that you need to figure out.

804
00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 1: And this game presents an opportunity not only for for

805
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,680
Speaker 1: these players to make this team, but also to maybe

806
00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 1: make another team because teams are always watching this. Scouts

807
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 1: are always watching. I was talking to Ethan Wade and

808
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:07,520
Speaker 1: Trent Balky and I would actually talk to Trent today

809
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:09,080
Speaker 1: a little bit, and I said, you know, do you

810
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 1: get your work out in this morning? Because now watching

811
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:13,319
Speaker 1: film of other teams, you know, and seeing what you know,

812
00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,360
Speaker 1: maybe we think maybe available. And that's what what you

813
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:18,839
Speaker 1: have to do. So and as you're the mindset, if

814
00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 1: you're a player, is is that this is a great

815
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:24,680
Speaker 1: opportunity and maybe the last opportunity for me to impress

816
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,560
Speaker 1: upon this staff to either make the active roster, make

817
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 1: the practice squad, but if not, then to be able

818
00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,719
Speaker 1: to make somebody else's roster or practice squad, and then

819
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:37,680
Speaker 1: if not that to at least impress enough that you

820
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:41,200
Speaker 1: are on what I call the shortlist. And the shortlist

821
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 1: is that, Okay, if you don't make any of those

822
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:46,160
Speaker 1: practice squad active roster here or there or any other team,

823
00:42:46,680 --> 00:42:49,960
Speaker 1: then you're on as many people's shortlist that if they

824
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,360
Speaker 1: have an injury and now they elevate somebody off a

825
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,919
Speaker 1: practice squad, that maybe that person could be drawn back

826
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: to a practice squad to take the place of somebody

827
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 1: else because injuries happened in the league. So uh, there's

828
00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,359
Speaker 1: a lot at steak for a lot of these young

829
00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 1: men and and unfortunately their dream per summer is gonna end.

830
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,839
Speaker 1: But that's that's that's the way that this league goes

831
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 1: NFL not for long and about. There are some other

832
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:16,240
Speaker 1: leagues now as well. The guys can kind of stay

833
00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:20,520
Speaker 1: in it from the XFL is here yesterday I saw

834
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,080
Speaker 1: and then yeah, that's just what CFL guys come out

835
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:25,480
Speaker 1: to these as well. I mean see, there are options

836
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:29,839
Speaker 1: for other, uh kinds of football, not as obviously wants.

837
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,840
Speaker 1: Everybody wants to get back and play in the NFL.

838
00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,239
Speaker 1: But the shortlist point is a good one for sure. Now,

839
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:37,560
Speaker 1: obviously in this game, to make a roster, especially in

840
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:40,319
Speaker 1: the bottom third of it, you're gonna have to play

841
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,800
Speaker 1: special teams and that will be a huge focus. I

842
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:45,360
Speaker 1: think this weekend. I got got taught a lesson a

843
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,880
Speaker 1: long time ago when James shack Harris, who was the

844
00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:52,759
Speaker 1: former general manager of the Jaguars when they drafted Matt

845
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:56,440
Speaker 1: Jones and a couple other guys and and he taught

846
00:43:56,440 --> 00:43:57,839
Speaker 1: me less and he said, you know, when you when

847
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 1: you're trying to figure out your fifty three, you have

848
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: to figure out who can you get active on game

849
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:05,799
Speaker 1: day because there's so many different roles that are that

850
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,839
Speaker 1: are out there. Not give any example. Running backs, Okay,

851
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 1: your third running back, okay, is he gonna be active

852
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:17,920
Speaker 1: on game day? M hm yeah, because says, okay, your

853
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 1: third best running back is gonna be active on game right? No, no, no,

854
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,920
Speaker 1: Because your third best running back is your third best

855
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,320
Speaker 1: running back, he may not be your best special teams

856
00:44:28,360 --> 00:44:31,400
Speaker 1: So your your third running back that's gonna be active

857
00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 1: is not your third best running back. He's the best

858
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,719
Speaker 1: special teamer that's not the first and second running back,

859
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 1: you know, So it doesn't necessarily mean that you're trying

860
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,520
Speaker 1: to keep the best players that are at each position.

861
00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:43,919
Speaker 1: You're trying to keep the best players that are gonna

862
00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:45,880
Speaker 1: be asked to do the role on game day if

863
00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 1: they're gonna be active. So for a fourth linebacker, you're

864
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,879
Speaker 1: not looking for a guy that might be awesome if

865
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,000
Speaker 1: he has to play in invent of an injury with

866
00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: Devin Lloyd or Muma or or Luken. You're you're looking

867
00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:01,200
Speaker 1: for a guy that can ball out on special teams.

868
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,439
Speaker 1: And safety is very similar. Sometimes you may not keep

869
00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:07,000
Speaker 1: the best safety that the guy that can play defense.

870
00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,920
Speaker 1: You might keep the guy that can play safety, but

871
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 1: he's the best guy that you got on special teams.

872
00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,959
Speaker 1: And so special teams are a big factor because those

873
00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:18,319
Speaker 1: are the decisions that you're gonna make about whether that

874
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,040
Speaker 1: player can make this team because he's got to be

875
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:23,040
Speaker 1: able to find a way to be active on game day.

876
00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:25,919
Speaker 1: Rudy Ford is one of those guys. Right. Well, there's

877
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,319
Speaker 1: there's a couple of that safety position now, you know,

878
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:30,879
Speaker 1: because your top two guys ray Sean Jenkins and and

879
00:45:30,880 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 1: Andre Cisco hands down, right, I mean two best safeties

880
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 1: you've got, and then your next guy in might be

881
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:39,560
Speaker 1: Andrew Winger. Okay, but there's some other guys that are

882
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 1: really good at safety. Rudy Ford Daniel Thomas are really

883
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,840
Speaker 1: good special teams players, you know, and Winger is an

884
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 1: excellent special teams player. So and then also Brandon Russknack

885
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:51,920
Speaker 1: is a guy that's very good on special teams and

886
00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 1: pretty solid at safety. That's a position I think that's

887
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 1: gonna be highly competitive and might be a little bit

888
00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:01,040
Speaker 1: heavy as far as numbers go, because those guys are

889
00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:04,640
Speaker 1: all pretty good on special teams. You gotta be wired

890
00:46:04,680 --> 00:46:06,840
Speaker 1: a little bit different to go run down the field

891
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 1: as a gunner on the special teams unit. Sometimes if

892
00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:13,399
Speaker 1: you're a safety like that, and um, you know, yeah,

893
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 1: wired differently, but still have that skill set and your

894
00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,760
Speaker 1: head about you to go execute that plan well. Special

895
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:22,400
Speaker 1: team of farts quickly. Special teams used to be filled

896
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:25,279
Speaker 1: by the linebacking group. Um, I mean a ton of

897
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:29,359
Speaker 1: linebackers played special teams. Special teams has more just as

898
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,280
Speaker 1: the game has changed to it's more of a passing league.

899
00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:36,400
Speaker 1: Special teams has lost size over the last number of

900
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 1: years because the speed component is that much more important.

901
00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:45,200
Speaker 1: So your defensive backs, your wide receivers, your safeties, you're

902
00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,840
Speaker 1: running backs. Those guys are all playing or have played

903
00:46:48,840 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 1: more of a prominent role on filling out the special

904
00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:56,000
Speaker 1: needs category than linebackers or tight ends out. Now, don't

905
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:59,640
Speaker 1: get me wrong. Linebackers still a critical position for special teams,

906
00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,319
Speaker 1: but it's changed a little bit over the last number

907
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:07,840
Speaker 1: of years. Special teams has gotten smaller and faster, smaller, faster, quicker.

908
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:13,759
Speaker 1: It's all about speed, speed, speed, That's right, that's Jeff.

909
00:47:13,920 --> 00:47:17,120
Speaker 1: Everybody wants to be fast like JP. Uh not everybody

910
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,160
Speaker 1: can be though. Um that's Jeff Logerman. I'm JP Shatrick.

911
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:22,480
Speaker 1: It's Jaguars Happy. Are coming up in just a few moments.

912
00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 1: It's the Doug Peterson Show. We'll hear plenty from the

913
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,319
Speaker 1: head coach. Won't be live with us this week, those

914
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,920
Speaker 1: plans are in the works moving ahead though, for the

915
00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:35,000
Speaker 1: regular season. Will hear from Doug Peterson throughout the week.

916
00:47:35,160 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 1: He spoke right before the trip to Atlanta, and then

917
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:42,680
Speaker 1: he spoke again this morning and updated some of the situations.

918
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 1: Of course, after the first practice against the Falcons yesterday,

919
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:50,920
Speaker 1: the Devin Lloyd situation the right tackle spot was of

920
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:54,480
Speaker 1: note today. So he seems like he's in a pretty

921
00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:56,120
Speaker 1: good place too. He always kind of seems like he's

922
00:47:56,120 --> 00:47:59,160
Speaker 1: in a pretty good place because he's been I love him.

923
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:02,920
Speaker 1: I love the way he handles his business. I like

924
00:48:03,000 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 1: the way he handles the players. It's been very impressive

925
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 1: to me. And the way he has kind of controlled

926
00:48:09,600 --> 00:48:12,840
Speaker 1: the narrative with his football team, how he's helped his

927
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:16,720
Speaker 1: football team hell from last year, and uh, he's changing

928
00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:19,839
Speaker 1: the mindset, he's helping build a real positive culture. I mean,

929
00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:21,600
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things I can tell you. Jaguar

930
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:23,600
Speaker 1: fans feel good about your coach because you got a

931
00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:26,359
Speaker 1: really good one. And obviously he's been to the Promised Land,

932
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,160
Speaker 1: so you you you know that he can take a

933
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 1: team there and hopefully they can build and establish really

934
00:48:34,080 --> 00:48:36,400
Speaker 1: good football players for him and his staff to coach

935
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,520
Speaker 1: and give them the best chance of winning. And he's

936
00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:41,040
Speaker 1: not scared to tell you that it is a process.

937
00:48:41,080 --> 00:48:43,839
Speaker 1: It takes time to build an organization. They might have

938
00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:46,320
Speaker 1: the frontline guys they like now, but it takes some

939
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:48,600
Speaker 1: time to work on that depth and and work on

940
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 1: a long term plan for your organization. And he's not

941
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 1: you know, he he's done it before, so he's not

942
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:56,280
Speaker 1: scared to go out and tell you the way it's

943
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:58,319
Speaker 1: should be built. And then it should take a little

944
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:01,840
Speaker 1: bit of time. And I talked with after this practice

945
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,239
Speaker 1: today a little bit and uh, and he was very

946
00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:06,359
Speaker 1: happy with the work that they were able to get

947
00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:09,840
Speaker 1: in and and very pleased with the progress that they've made.

948
00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:12,040
Speaker 1: And and that's a real good thing. I mean, you

949
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,799
Speaker 1: come up here to obtain some objectives and when you

950
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,239
Speaker 1: when you do, you're like, all right, mission accomplished. Still

951
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,600
Speaker 1: still not done. Those still things to do. All right.

952
00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 1: That'll do it for Jaguars Happy Hour Coming up in
