Speaker 1: Jaguars wide receiver Chris Conley with us after the first
Speaker 1: day of training camp nineteen. How was it first day out?
Speaker 1: It was good, you know, knocking a lot of rust
Speaker 1: off guys getting in the huddle here on some of
Speaker 1: those play calls again for the first time. It was
Speaker 1: It was a good day. It was a good day.
Speaker 1: It was very productive. Today was a winning practice. You know.
Speaker 1: There wasn't too much flashy going on, but there was
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of hard work, a lot
Speaker 1: of attention to detail, a lot of good corrections that
Speaker 1: we're going in today. If we can continue to build
Speaker 1: on what we have here today, it's gonna make us
Speaker 1: a good football team. Nick Foles earlier was talking about
Speaker 1: the third installation of this offense. Is it easier the
Speaker 1: third time around, and you can go out and on
Speaker 1: the field and actually put it in a little easier.
Speaker 1: How does that work the third time around? Of course,
Speaker 1: the third time that you hear everything that goes in,
Speaker 1: it makes it a lot, makes it simpler, Uh, it
Speaker 1: makes things quicker, It makes you come out you're not
Speaker 1: so much talking about what routes you have on each play.
Speaker 1: You you talk more so about the technique, the the
Speaker 1: little things, the nuances of the offense, and you can
Speaker 1: start to polish. And once this once this office gets
Speaker 1: offense gets polished, it just gets faster, it gets more efficient,
Speaker 1: and you can start putting in wrinkles. And so we're
Speaker 1: at that point right now where we're just polishing things
Speaker 1: up and we're trying to trying to take it day
Speaker 1: by day, but but really critiqued the little things. What
Speaker 1: is this offense going to be known for? What's the
Speaker 1: bread and butter at the end of the day. Is
Speaker 1: it too early to tell? I think it's too early
Speaker 1: to tell. I think every every team has their own identity.
Speaker 1: And uh, this offense staff and players is is very
Speaker 1: very young in its life cycle. Um, and so we'll
Speaker 1: we'll take time and just work on being consistent and
Speaker 1: and being good at at the things that we work at.
Speaker 1: And you know, I you it'll start taking shape. It
Speaker 1: will starts taking shape and the next next month or so.
Speaker 1: Chris Connelly with this Jaguars wide receiver working with Keenan Mcardell.
Speaker 1: You've been with him now for a few months here,
Speaker 1: former receiver in the league, long time receiver in the league,
Speaker 1: but your first season around him as a wide receiver's coach.
Speaker 1: How is he to work with What does he do
Speaker 1: on a day to day basis to make that wide
Speaker 1: receiver room better? He's good, you know, coach McCardell as
Speaker 1: a worker. Uh, he's you have to be to be
Speaker 1: in the league as long as he's been in the
Speaker 1: league as a player. Uh. He really understands the ins
Speaker 1: and outs of the position and he brings that knowledge
Speaker 1: out here on the field every day. Uh. He's a
Speaker 1: good guy that you can take anything that you see,
Speaker 1: any technique, any defense, uh, any route combination, and you
Speaker 1: can you can bring it to him and you can
Speaker 1: start talking about Okay, so this is what I saw,
Speaker 1: what do you think in this situation? And he can
Speaker 1: give you four or five different variations off of the
Speaker 1: same play. Uh. And it really, it really adds a
Speaker 1: lot of tools to your toolbox as a as a technician,
Speaker 1: as a receiver, and it makes it so that you
Speaker 1: can come out here and you're not guessing. It makes
Speaker 1: it so you can attack what's on your checklist for
Speaker 1: tomorrow personally for you and do you have a daily
Speaker 1: checklist of things you want to get done each practice
Speaker 1: or how does that work for a wide receiver. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, every day, I'd like to focus on one
Speaker 1: or two things, one or two things that I that
Speaker 1: I've noticed from the practice film of the previous day
Speaker 1: that I really want to focus on and really step
Speaker 1: forward with. And so I don't have what will what
Speaker 1: will be my tomorrow yet because we're getting off the
Speaker 1: field right now. Once I go in here and I
Speaker 1: watched this film, though, um, I'll be able to write
Speaker 1: down a couple of things, uh, and a couple of
Speaker 1: ways that I can practice at getting better at that.
Speaker 1: Because if you can really focus on something and have
Speaker 1: it before you, it makes it a lot easier for
Speaker 1: you to actually, you know, get it done. Thanks, no problem,
Speaker 1: Thank you for having me
