1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:02,080
Speaker 1: Not only are you a part of one of the

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:04,800
Speaker 1: best organizations in the NFL, but you're part of one

3
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:08,400
Speaker 1: of the best fans. Like the Ravens flocked like they

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,719
Speaker 1: really come out here. What offensive lignment doesn't want to

5
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:12,879
Speaker 1: wind down sixty yards down the field with what his

6
00:00:12,960 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: quarterback and be on esp in the next day. Come

7
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: on like that, Like that's like that's alignment dream. Right.

8
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,320
Speaker 1: They already said, Daddy, we love you, but we're gonna

9
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: wear our Lamar Jackson jerseys to the game. Welcome into

10
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: the lounge presented by DraftKings. Training camp has kicked off.

11
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,520
Speaker 1: We're in the thick of it. Hasn't gotten too hot yet,

12
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 1: but we haven't stepped outside yet today. Are we in

13
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 1: the thick of it? I feel like this is just

14
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 1: the tip of the iceberg. I want to throw out

15
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 1: all the analogies practice. When practice has started, you're in

16
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 1: the thick of it. It's only day two. It feels

17
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 1: like it's day five, feels like it's day ten. Yeah,

18
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: but exciting stuff. Players are back on the field. Lamar

19
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: Jackson as expected out there practicing. You know, practice a

20
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: little bit different this year. There's a lot of more

21
00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: on air stuff as opposed to as much eleven on

22
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: a leven. But we'll talk about some of our observations

23
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,440
Speaker 1: from the first day of training camp and some of

24
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: the biggest news. But first we want to get into

25
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 1: our interview with Morgan Moses, the Ravens new veteran right

26
00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: tackle who they signed this offseason, So really looking forward

27
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 1: to that. Yeah, Morgan is a huge piece of this team.

28
00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 1: I mean, he was one of the prize free agent

29
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: acquisitions of the Ravens made back in the spring, and

30
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,240
Speaker 1: he's going to have a huge part and kind of

31
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: turning this offensive line around Ravens fans. No, the offensive

32
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,400
Speaker 1: line really struggled last year and going into the offseason

33
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: like that was probably priority number one to address ye

34
00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: and adding Morgan Moses to this team was a key

35
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 1: component of addressing that. So, without any further ado, let's

36
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 1: go ahead and jump into that conversation. We are thrilled

37
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: to be with Morgan Moses, who's entering year nine training

38
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: camp number nine for you, Morgan, and uh, you know

39
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: we're kind of chatting on the walk down here, but

40
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: just does it get easier? Does it get harder? You're like,

41
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: oh God, not another one of these, But what is

42
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: the feeling well, I think you know I was when

43
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: I walked down, I said, man, you know, when you

44
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: got the mindset that you can continue learning, it's easier

45
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: to come back and play because, like you know, a

46
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: lot of you know, hey, you're not a lot of

47
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 1: guys you feel like I know it all, I know

48
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 1: it all. But when you got you know, these great

49
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 1: athletes coming in out of college every year and they're

50
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: challenging you, and you feel like you can get better

51
00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: in certain areas every day. Man, it makes it easier.

52
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 1: So it's it's it's been a blessing right right, And

53
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,640
Speaker 1: you're now, you know, brought here to be kind of

54
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,600
Speaker 1: a stabilizing force on this offensive line. And and you know,

55
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,359
Speaker 1: one of the things that I noticed immediately when you

56
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 1: stepped onto the field is like that a a veteran

57
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 1: like who knows what he's doing, and b but you

58
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: bring this like fun side to practice, Like you're kind

59
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:41,239
Speaker 1: of like laughing and enjoying practice, you know what I mean. Like,

60
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's a part of the game. Man.

61
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 1: You know, like you know a lot of these guys

62
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: out here we've played football from you know, it's a

63
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 1: childhood game. For a king ransom, I tell everybody, right,

64
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 1: and so like the opportunity, man, this is not work,

65
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: you know, this is fun to go out there and

66
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 1: throw the football around with the guys and block people

67
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: and things like that. And even when you know, for me,

68
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 1: you know, I've played for you know, two different organizations,

69
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: but being able to come into an organization that you

70
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: know off top, you know you have an opportunity to win, um,

71
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,239
Speaker 1: it just makes it even more of a kid's game

72
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 1: for you. So, um, that's that's what football is about, right.

73
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: It challenges you in life. It challenge you on the

74
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 1: field and off the field, and um, you find your way.

75
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 1: You find your way through it and you grow as

76
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: a person. You know. So when you're a vet, like

77
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: at this level, I think a lot of guys look

78
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 1: at training camp and it's like training camp, But you

79
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,280
Speaker 1: don't seem to have that attitude like it's day two here,

80
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: you got a big smile on your face. Why is that?

81
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: Because you know the grind, You already know what you

82
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: know what football brings. You know, you got to go

83
00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,040
Speaker 1: through it. You gotta go through training camp, You gotta

84
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: get acclimated to the past, those things. But this is

85
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: a brotherhood. You know, everybody's going through it. You know,

86
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: even the coaches. You know, everybody has families, everybody taking

87
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 1: away from their family to be here. And so it's

88
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: the opportunity to grow and get better. You know, football

89
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 1: doesn't last forever. You know, at some point you got

90
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: to stop playing. Although you know, I mean year nine,

91
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: I feel like I canna play forever. Um, you know

92
00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna be an ending point. And you don't want

93
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: to look back in life and say, man, I wish

94
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,839
Speaker 1: I would have done this. So this is a chance

95
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,040
Speaker 1: for you to take every opportunity that you can just

96
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 1: to grow as a football player. Um. And these are

97
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: relationships and coaches, through coaches and players that you'll you'll

98
00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: never forget. You know, my kids already already says, man,

99
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 1: you're blocking for Lamar Jackson. Like they'll never forget that

100
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 1: I'm blocking for Lamar Jackson. So, UM, it's been an

101
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 1: honor just to be a part of this this organization. Yeah,

102
00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: that's what I kind of want to talk about. You know,

103
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 1: you said you've been with two previous organizations, Washington and

104
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 1: New York Jets. How does how does the you know

105
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:32,320
Speaker 1: now that you've been here for summer. How do the

106
00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 1: Ravens kind of compare and contrast to there's other organizations, Um,

107
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,359
Speaker 1: you know, just the history, you know, like the history

108
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: of I think last year was what the first time

109
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 1: the Ravens didn't make the playoffs in fifteen twenty years

110
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 1: maybe or something like that. I mean maybe maybe maybe

111
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 1: I'm stretching it, but it's just like when you walk

112
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 1: in and you see the pictures of Ray Lewis and

113
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 1: and read those guys Jonathan Ogden. You know, you see

114
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 1: those pictures of those guys, and that's the that's the staple,

115
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 1: that's the standard, and so you have something to look

116
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 1: forward to every day. That's the standard of coming here

117
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: and playing championship football. And then you just get around

118
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,159
Speaker 1: a great group of men. Man, it's it's it's it's

119
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 1: just a testament of these guys hard working. You want

120
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: to be a part of that. That thing is contagious.

121
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: So anytime you get around that man and that contagious feeling,

122
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: you just want to be able to, you know, take

123
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,160
Speaker 1: it in and just and just be great. You know,

124
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 1: that's every day everybody comes in this building, whether they're cooking, media,

125
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 1: whatever the case is. That everybody wants to be great

126
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: every day and so that thing, you know coach John

127
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 1: Harball preaches it, he preaches it all the time, is

128
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: that that feeling is contagious, you know. So like when

129
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 1: you're on the mic and you're on the ones and

130
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 1: twos and doing your thing, it's contagious. Right. You want

131
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: to be the greatest. You want to be the greatest

132
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 1: guy out there. So the same thing about being on

133
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: the field, you know, you want to be the greatest

134
00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 1: right tackle. You want to the level of expectations that

135
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,880
Speaker 1: you want to reach for yourself. And when you can

136
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: do that, the team just it floats so much better.

137
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,880
Speaker 1: Right do you feel when you switch teams like you

138
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: have to earn respect, confidence trust from your new mates.

139
00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: How do you kind of navigate that transition? Well, I

140
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,240
Speaker 1: think when you come in with the mindset of like,

141
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: it's not what I've done in the past, but it's

142
00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: what I'm what I'm doing now, And you see, like, Okay,

143
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,160
Speaker 1: as a veteran guy, you get guys that come in

144
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: You're coming in OTAs and you're working your butt off

145
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: and you're not slacking. You're not taking days off like, oh,

146
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,680
Speaker 1: coach want we want to give me off day. Now,

147
00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 1: I don't want that off day when when younger players

148
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,440
Speaker 1: see that, they're they're modeling that off of them. You know,

149
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,279
Speaker 1: like Calais Campbell's played fifteen years in the league. I've

150
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: worked out with them in the summers and and uh

151
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: in Miami at Mama Ritos. To see that guy a

152
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 1: year fifteen come in every day, work his butt off,

153
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: like you know, you're like, dang, I got more in

154
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: the tank, Like I got more to give. Like this

155
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: dude is in year fifteen and he's driving to still

156
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 1: get a championship, and you gotta block him. You gotta

157
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: block him. Ever, it's like, look, I gotta raise my

158
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 1: expectations right right right what you mentioned Lamar Jackson and

159
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 1: now you've been around him for a little bit at least,

160
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 1: you know what is it like blocking for Lamar? Oh man,

161
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: it's awesome. You know. Anytime you got you know eight

162
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: back there and then all these quarterbacks Tyler Huntley, like

163
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 1: I've played with him all all ot as when Lamar

164
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,320
Speaker 1: wasn't here, and you just see that, you know the personality,

165
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: he's calm, cool, collected, like Lamar's calm cool, like nothing

166
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: phases him like he enjoys football and besides him being

167
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: a great team and he's a hell of a football player.

168
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: We already know that, but just being able to just

169
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 1: you know, have him behind you, knowing that, like if

170
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: someone breaks down, oh, Lamar, he knows it. You know

171
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 1: he's gonna make it correct. And when you got that

172
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: type of player behind you on an offense, man, the

173
00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 1: sky's the limit because he's not a guy that you

174
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,239
Speaker 1: can just he's just gonna sit down in the pocket

175
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 1: and stand there. You gotta account for yeah, you got

176
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: you gotta account for him, you know you like the

177
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: defense has account for him. So it's not like ten

178
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 1: guys out there playing. It's all eleven because like Lamar

179
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: is so affective with his feet, in his arms, with

180
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 1: his arms, So it's it's a it's a it's a

181
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 1: win win situation. Yeah. I wonder like when you're a

182
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: free agent you're looking at teams to sign with or whatnot,

183
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: and you look at the Ravens. Is it part of

184
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: you says, yeah, you know, Lamar dance out of a

185
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: few sacks that maybe I would give up otherwise, you know,

186
00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 1: help that out. On the flip side, you're gonna have

187
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 1: to get out and run a little bit to you know,

188
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 1: you never know where Lamar's gonna You're like, I gotta

189
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: be on my p's and Q and look, thank God

190
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 1: for my peloton because I've been on it all summer.

191
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: So I've been rolling, I've been getting my mouths in,

192
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 1: so I'm ready to go. Man. But it's I would

193
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: say this, man, Obviously it's a different type of a

194
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: football player. Yeah, with his running running ability, but it's exciting.

195
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 1: You know, it's exciting to be able to block for that,

196
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: because I mean, what offensive linement doesn't want to run

197
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 1: down sixty yards down the field with his with his

198
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: quarterback and be on esp in the next day. Come on,

199
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 1: Like that's like that's like that's a lineman dream, right,

200
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: So you know, um, so it's exciting man. You know.

201
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 1: You see get out here in training camp, you see

202
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: all the fans. You know, I came out before him

203
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,520
Speaker 1: yesterday out the indoor facility and then I hear just

204
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: this thunder of people just ah, you know, it's Lamar

205
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: coming down. But that's the you know, that's the Ravens flock,

206
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,199
Speaker 1: you know, And I'm learning. I'm learning these things as

207
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: I go because I haven't been there that long. But

208
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 1: I mean, not only are you a part of one

209
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: of the best organizations in the NFL, but you're part

210
00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 1: of one of the best fans. Like the Ravens flocked,

211
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 1: like they really come out here. You know, it was

212
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:11,840
Speaker 1: hot as hell out there, and I'm like, yo, you

213
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,559
Speaker 1: guys are standing out here with like with sweatshirts and

214
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:17,240
Speaker 1: stuff when and I'm hot, and but like they come

215
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 1: out here because they love the team. Right. So when

216
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 1: we signed you, you know that, start doing the research

217
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: and one of the first things that comes up anything

218
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 1: that's written by you consistency availability, consistency, Like you're going

219
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: to be out there on Sundays. What's what seven straight

220
00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:33,640
Speaker 1: years you haven't missed a start rate? Yeah, something like that,

221
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: something like that. How much pride do you put into

222
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,439
Speaker 1: that aspect of your game? I think number one is

223
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: just taking care of taking care of your body being

224
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 1: a vet, you know, And I learned that earlier with

225
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: great you know, vets in front of me when I

226
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: was in Washington, like Jason Hatcher Williams. Those guys learned

227
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: how to navigate, take care of your body and things

228
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: like that. But I think also man um, just not

229
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,000
Speaker 1: letting your guys down, you know, wanting to be out there,

230
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: Like why not if you're eighty percent and you know

231
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: that eighty percent might be better than the guy behind you,

232
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: why not go out there? Um? And that's the that's

233
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 1: that chain about talk about about the brotherhood. You know,

234
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,720
Speaker 1: like everybody on this team has some some type of family,

235
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,520
Speaker 1: whether it's kids, wife, mom, dad, whatever the case is.

236
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 1: And you're going to war with those guys every day,

237
00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,720
Speaker 1: Like you want the best out there to go to

238
00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: war with you every day. And you know, you prode

239
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: yourself on being like like I always say, like one

240
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: of my favorite Ward movies is three hundred, right, So

241
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: like you see those guys with the shields in the

242
00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,840
Speaker 1: front just battled up. That's the offensive line, Like you

243
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: can't it takes all five to navigate, So why not

244
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,199
Speaker 1: be out there? Why not let you you know, you

245
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,359
Speaker 1: don't want to let your guys down, be on the sideline.

246
00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 1: So and plus my kids and my kids are gonna

247
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,120
Speaker 1: tell me, like, you know, kids are there, they're the

248
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: realists out There're gonna be like, daddy, come on, what

249
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:46,960
Speaker 1: are you doing that You're just sitting on the sideline,

250
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: Like I can't come home like that, Like, what how

251
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 1: does the offensive line look at its kind of role?

252
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,560
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously every offensive line is really important. But

253
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 1: last year, you know, Lamar got sacked a career high

254
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 1: number of time, you know, and that was kind of

255
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: holding the offense back in a way. This year, you know,

256
00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 1: with Ronnie coming back, you know, with you now with

257
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,160
Speaker 1: Tyler Linda Baum drafted in the first round, Like this

258
00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,440
Speaker 1: offensive line is looking legit, you know, like are you

259
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: putting a lot on kind of your shorts to be

260
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:18,040
Speaker 1: like all right, it starts with us, like getting this

261
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 1: offensive line humming like it wasn't twenty nineteen when Lamar

262
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: was an MVP. Like that is on us to start with.

263
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,839
Speaker 1: You know what I would say, I'll start with this man.

264
00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,440
Speaker 1: Everything looks great on paper, but you know, things have

265
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 1: to play in place. We have to get comfortable with

266
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: the offense. We have to get comfortable with each other,

267
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 1: learning each other. Um. You know. Yeah, I've been a

268
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,959
Speaker 1: part of some great offensive line in my career and

269
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 1: really is just the camaraderie just knowing that guy beside you,

270
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 1: like you know, I'm I know Zike might not get

271
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 1: a call out, but if he says, m I know

272
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: what he means, like me, So like being on that

273
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:54,080
Speaker 1: same page with that guy to be able to protect

274
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 1: and keep him up because obviously, you know, if it

275
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: Lamar is out there playing every game, man, we have

276
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 1: an opportunity to win that game. Right, He's that much

277
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 1: of a game changer, right, I'm curious how much you

278
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: know when I watched you in the course of the

279
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,319
Speaker 1: offseason practices at times like you look good when you're

280
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: out in space, you know? And and is that an

281
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 1: aspect told him, Well, exactly exactly, like oh and the

282
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 1: great romance creative about how he uses offensive alignment and

283
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: kind of schemes up this running game. How much of

284
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 1: that aspect of your game is something that that you

285
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:26,079
Speaker 1: really enjoy? And are you saying, hey, man, put me

286
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,280
Speaker 1: on one of these polls. You know, I'm gonna use

287
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,440
Speaker 1: me in some creative ways to get out here. And well,

288
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:33,600
Speaker 1: if you know you know our OC Greg, if you

289
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,719
Speaker 1: know him, you know he has everything in the offense. Right,

290
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,000
Speaker 1: So like anytime we get a play where we get

291
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,079
Speaker 1: to call in space, I'm thinking, like, yo, if he's

292
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:42,720
Speaker 1: seeing me run this fast, you know I might get

293
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 1: a bubble screen next week or something. But no, man,

294
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 1: it's just like it's one of those things. You know. Obviously,

295
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: you know we do our thing in pass and run,

296
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,439
Speaker 1: but the opportunity to be able to get out there

297
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: on those numbers and pull on those lower guys and

298
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: stuff like now that they can't cut us no more

299
00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,560
Speaker 1: anybody too, so you know that's an advantage as well.

300
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,200
Speaker 1: But being able to show that showcase that talent. Man,

301
00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,160
Speaker 1: it's it's it's a you know, it's a great feeling

302
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: for us as offensive lineman. And you know, nobody wants

303
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: to down block every place. I want to get out

304
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 1: there and open too, and feel fast as well. Man.

305
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 1: And plus my like I said, my kid, the kids

306
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: are the realist, right, They're gonna tell daddy either you're slower,

307
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: you fast. So but just being in this offense, man,

308
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: and having so many different, you know, moving parts to it,

309
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 1: it's enjoyable, man, because you never know what he's gonna call,

310
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,120
Speaker 1: you know, you never know what's going to happen. You

311
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,120
Speaker 1: never know. You know, it can be third and fifteen

312
00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: and we run the ball and it's for twenty five

313
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 1: yards and that's that type of excitement that you want

314
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: to come into Now. I saw a clip from last

315
00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: year a think of Trent Williams blowing up a guy

316
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: when he was basically in motion, and I was like,

317
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,280
Speaker 1: they could you use that right? And look, I'm not

318
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,240
Speaker 1: gonna put myself on that level because I've been around

319
00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:48,840
Speaker 1: them and I know what type of athlete it is.

320
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:53,079
Speaker 1: But hey, you never know, so you gotta always be ready. Right. So,

321
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 1: how how are you and Zeitler jelling? Because personality wise,

322
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 1: kind of two different guys. I don't know that I've

323
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:01,800
Speaker 1: ever heard Zeitler laugh as much as I've heard you

324
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: laugh in the past ten minutes. Like he is like

325
00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: a Marshall yonda ask, like just serious down the business

326
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah. So, like, what's that relationship like with

327
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 1: you two? It's jail. Oh, you know, obviously we're getting closer.

328
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,320
Speaker 1: And then obviously, you know, for him, he's played a

329
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: lot of football, so being able to come and play

330
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 1: beside zite and he already knows, he knows the offense,

331
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 1: he knows you know what we're thinking, um, and that's

332
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,800
Speaker 1: just the you know, building that relationship on and off

333
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,760
Speaker 1: the field. You know, that's why we have the offensive

334
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 1: line dinners, and we have the offensive line time to

335
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 1: build those building blocks. So when it's tough, and you know,

336
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: when it's tough week fourteen fifteen, you know, like, hey man,

337
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: I'm banged up. Bro, I only got seventy percent. All right, Bro,

338
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna carry your thirty percent, you know. And that's

339
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: how it works. You know, it's a moving chess game.

340
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: You depending on your guys to to make it happen. Right,

341
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: And what have been your early impressions of linder Bomb

342
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,960
Speaker 1: the rookie dude? Really like he reminds me of a

343
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: Brandon Sheriff, Like I tell him that all the time,

344
00:14:56,200 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: you know, but just super fast, like dude, Like like

345
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 1: we had we threw an interception like in Ota or something,

346
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 1: and I'm like, yo, I'm moving, Like I know I'm moving.

347
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 1: I'm like yo. And then coach gets in the meeting.

348
00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: Coach Arball gets in meeting the next day, It's like, yeah,

349
00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 1: somebody ran eighteen miles per hour. And I'm just in

350
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,480
Speaker 1: my head, like, bro, I know I didn't run eighteen miles,

351
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:17,360
Speaker 1: but I must say that I ran eighteen. But I

352
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: knew it was Tyler because at the corner of my

353
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: eye just see him tracking me down, like it's but um,

354
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: just the dude knows football. Man like, he loves football.

355
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,600
Speaker 1: He breathes and lives football, and that's what you went

356
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 1: as a young rookie. Um. I think he's done a

357
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 1: tremendous job coming in here and just getting you know,

358
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: getting the playbook down. And you know, obviously, man, that's

359
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 1: Lamar's guy. Like those two touched the ball every play man,

360
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 1: every place. So UM, to have a guy like that,

361
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: that's intelligent, that can play football, Um, it's great to

362
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 1: have him. Who wasn't that he was tracking down on

363
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,920
Speaker 1: that pick? Even Lamar like give him prompts. The next

364
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,880

Speaker 1: see these guys work. Um, they're excited about it, right. No.

395
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,960

396
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,919
Speaker 1: four young kids. Really, um, you know, what's that like

397
00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 1: to be an NFL player to have a big family

398
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,919
Speaker 1: like that? How how is it? How difficult? Is it's

Speaker 1: with a lot of things that are asked of you. No,

401
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 1: it is, man, It's beautiful though, because like they get

402
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: to see the work every day, you know, Like, you know,

403
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: I tell them all the time, like, look, you guys

404
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 1: don't have to play football. You can. Guys can do

405
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: anything you guys want, and they gravitate to football. Wonder

406
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,120
Speaker 1: why right, Um? But to see they get to see,

407
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 1: you know, Dad come out here with his teammates every day,

408
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:49,439
Speaker 1: and then it doesn't matter who it is. Like if

409
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 1: we're walking around them all and they see somebody tall

410
00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 1: and big, they're like, that's Daddy's teammate. I was like,

411
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: I don't even know that guy. But they pay attention

412
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,160
Speaker 1: to those things. So they see how hard we work

413
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,080
Speaker 1: out here, and so they makes them want to work harder.

414
00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,280
Speaker 1: You know, There's been some days this offseason when I

415
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:05,679
Speaker 1: was chilling at home, They're like, Daddy let's let's go

416
00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 1: to the park and through the football and and you

417
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,439
Speaker 1: know it's like, man, all right, they really see, they

418
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,159
Speaker 1: really enjoy and those are memories that you'll never forget,

419
00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,920
Speaker 1: Like they'll never forget coming out to training camp, meeting

420
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:19,280
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, being on the field running after practice, carrying

421
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: my helmet like all those things. And so it's pretty

422
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: cool to be able to have children while you're in

423
00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: the league because they're a part of it, right, And

424
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,199
Speaker 1: so it's been great for me and my wife to

425
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,400
Speaker 1: be here a part of the Baltimore Ravens, and it's

426
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: very excited. It's awesome. The last one for me, Morgan.

427
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,719
Speaker 1: When you're at the stage of your career, you've you've

428
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 1: played a long time in the league, I gotta believe

429
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 1: that that winning a championship is becomes even more alluring,

430
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,119
Speaker 1: you know, because you see how hard it is. Yeah,

431
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 1: how how much is that something that drives you every day?

432
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 1: I would say this, man, Like, when I signed here,

433
00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,239
Speaker 1: I wasn't really like the mindset wasn't like I'm going

434
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,919
Speaker 1: to win a championship, right, But the first day I

435
00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: stepped on the field and I saw how organized practice

436
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,400
Speaker 1: was that there's no music out here. There's no fake,

437
00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,800
Speaker 1: no false hype, no false made motivation. It's just like

438
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: the coaches, the pads, and you're communicating with your brothers, right.

439
00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: And when you see that type of structure like dang,

440
00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:16,719
Speaker 1: I'm gonna win a super Bowl, like you can just

441
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,280
Speaker 1: feel it in the atmosphere because there's no fake, no

442
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:23,040
Speaker 1: false hype out there. It's just work. We work every day, um,

443
00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: And I think that's the that's the that's the standard, right,

444
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: Like you know, you walk into every day and say

445
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,720
Speaker 1: you want to I want to win a super Bowl? Right,

446
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't it doesn't happen like that. There's there's steps

447
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,639
Speaker 1: to get there. And I think you know, I always

448
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 1: tell people in life, man, if you're at step A, man,

449
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: you want to cover every point of step eight before

450
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 1: you can go to step B. And I think that's

451
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:43,479
Speaker 1: what they have here. And so when you have that

452
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 1: type of structure in life on the football field and

453
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: off the football field, you're going to secede, right all right.

454
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,439
Speaker 1: My last one is during practice yesterday, I thought I

455
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 1: heard like some like jingling, like you had like a

456
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 1: cool chain on and I was trying I didn't have binoculars.

457
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 1: I was trying to see it, but it looked and

458
00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 1: I could see you got So what's what's do you

459
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,920
Speaker 1: have a cool chance story? I have a football where

460
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 1: all my my boys have a piece of the football.

461
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 1: So if you lay them down, they connect. They're connecting

462
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: to one football, So all the boys have a little

463
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: piece of the football and the other one's that dog

464
00:20:15,040 --> 00:20:17,800
Speaker 1: tag from my father who passed two years ago. So

465
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 1: I wear these everywhere I go. There with me on

466
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,639
Speaker 1: and off the field in life, and it just reminds.

467
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,879
Speaker 1: It's a little reminder saying like, hey, I'm not on here,

468
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,119
Speaker 1: I'm not on the field about myself. Man, I'm carrying

469
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,880
Speaker 1: my family name, I'm carrying the legacy um and there

470
00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 1: with me as you see. My wife's out there every

471
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:37,240
Speaker 1: day at training camp. So yeah, yeah, so even even

472
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:38,920
Speaker 1: at the hotel, man, like I come like, babe, I

473
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,959
Speaker 1: need to stretch and you crack my back or something.

474
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 1: She does it all. So it's just a it's a

475
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,359
Speaker 1: blessing to be a part of, like I said, a

476
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: family organization that you know that teaches because you know

477
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 1: it's hard. You know, obviously everybody knows it's hard to

478
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 1: have a family in NFL. It's hard to be a husband,

479
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 1: it's hard to be a father. Um, but when you

480
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: got the fall in the pieces that fall in place, man,

481
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: it makes it a lot easier. Right. Well, family, man,

482
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 1: and we expect great things for me. Man, You're gonna

483
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: have an awesome appreciate than well good stuff from Morgan.

484
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 1: Just the likable guy. Man. He's just like got this

485
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:13,360
Speaker 1: great demeanor about him. Just just a happy, pleasant, like

486
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 1: optimistic dude. I like him. Yeah. I mean I think

487
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:20,040
Speaker 1: when he first came here, even just for his visit

488
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,120
Speaker 1: and when he signed his contract, you could just kind

489
00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: of feel that energy. Yeah. Um, and that has not subsided.

490
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:26,959
Speaker 1: It was not an act. Like that's kind of how

491
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,239
Speaker 1: he carries himself in all aspects of his time here.

492
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: So it's kind of different from like a lot of

493
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 1: offensive lineman. I mean, he's like getting that there. I

494
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:38,400
Speaker 1: think he's probably the most jovial offensive lineman that I've

495
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 1: been around. Yes, yes, that's the way. This is just

496
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: so funny. It's like different. Um. Anyway, we want to

497

518
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,320

519
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 1: your ideas. I'm pretty sure this wasn't your idea. You

520
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,840
Speaker 1: just stole someone else's idea. I said, that's a good one. No,

527
00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,720
Speaker 1: just a little plug there. Well. I also had the

528
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,120
Speaker 1: International our international listeners reach out and ask for doing

529
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 1: the Fantasy League again and wondering if you're ever going

530
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 1: to get in on the Carrett, are you gonna shun

531
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: our listeners again? Did you win the Fantasy the International

532
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,560
Speaker 1: League left first year but not last year? No? I

533
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 1: think I lost both years. I lost the championship the

534
00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: first year and last year I didn't make it to

535
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: the championship. Yeah. That sounds about right. All right, So

536
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,959
Speaker 1: are you playing now? So let's let's get into some

537
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: of our thoughts and observations over the first couple of

538
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,560
Speaker 1: days of camp here. In addition to what we've seen

539
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 1: on the field, there also has some news over the

540
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:43,200
Speaker 1: course of this week. First and foremost, Lamar Jackson is here.

541
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,880
Speaker 1: He's practicing. He's not making the contracted distraction, which if

542
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 1: you listen to the lounge, you knew it was going

543
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 1: to be the case exactly. We've said this all this

544
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: since since Mini camp when Lamar was here and people

545
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: wanted to make a big deal about whether he would

546
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: hold out and all that. We told you that he

547
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,600
Speaker 1: would be here. He is, and I think that that

548
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: is obviously a great sign. Yeah, all right. The other thing,

549
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,199
Speaker 1: we did get some updates just kind of on the

550
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:11,240
Speaker 1: injury front. You know, Gus Edwards may not be ready

551
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,639
Speaker 1: for the start of the season. Um. JK Dobbins is

552
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 1: still on the pup list, which you know he's advocating.

553
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 1: You know, he was kind of out of practice. That

554
00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 1: was the best part of the first day of practice,

555
00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,360
Speaker 1: the best entertaining portion. I told JK that I saw

556
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 1: him down the near when I was waiting for Morgan.

557
00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,959
Speaker 1: I said, you were the best part of practice yesterday

558
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: watching you. If anybody mist go ahead and set the scene.

559
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 1: So we're standing out there and j K comes out

560
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:38,200
Speaker 1: like three quarters the way through practice in his jersey,

561
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 1: looking like he's ready to suit up and just walk

562
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: out on the field. It's like what's going on here?

563
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,680
Speaker 1: And he came out and he starts like just going

564
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: up and down the sideline like and you know, I'm

565
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 1: the lip reader, I can't tell from the opposite side

566
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: of the field, but like he's motioning with his hands

567
00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,119
Speaker 1: like come on, like like let me in, like he

568
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: wanted to come in, and he's just telling everybody, and

569
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,640
Speaker 1: Justin Houston pulled him aside and like was like talking

570
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 1: to him, was like the veteran and like I know

571
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 1: you want to get out there, young guy, but like

572
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,359
Speaker 1: you gotta be patient, you know. And then he's just

573
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:09,199
Speaker 1: going up and down just like loudly talking to you know,

574
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: letting everybody hear anybody within ear s, anybody within the

575
00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: ear side. And then he walks up steep but shot,

576
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: he's having a conversation with there coast. He just the

577
00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 1: interjects right in the middle of it, walks up and

578
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,479
Speaker 1: like Eric's like, dude, like you gotta relax. Is like

579
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,479
Speaker 1: what it seemed like, you know, He's like I feel you,

580
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:25,359
Speaker 1: I feel you. And then we asked John Harball about

581
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,600
Speaker 1: it at the practice. He's like, yeah, Jk's told me

582
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:29,440
Speaker 1: on a number of occasions how bad he wants to

583
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,480
Speaker 1: get out there. He tells me every single day, you

584
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,280
Speaker 1: know that he wants to be out there practice. I'd

585
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,880
Speaker 1: like to see it. Yeah, No, I don't like like

586
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:37,680
Speaker 1: yeah to him, I like it. I mean I think

587
00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,879
Speaker 1: that like it shows you that, like JK wants to play.

588
00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: And we've said all along, like j K is a

589
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 1: someone who loves the game of football. Yeah, and like

590
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 1: he clearly was, you know, really just disappointed about the

591
00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 1: Andrew last year. He was on the cusp of what

592
00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 1: was going to be a monster sophomore season and everybody,

593
00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 1: everybody felt it, everybody knew it. Yeah, and it just

594
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:01,560
Speaker 1: got ripped away from him. And for a guy, especially JK,

595
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 1: who is not a patient human being, yeah, right, and

596
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:06,879
Speaker 1: like he was you know, we talked to him for

597
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 1: on the podcast about how tough his rookie year was

598
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,919
Speaker 1: and like having to kind of wait his turn and

599
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 1: not getting as many carries as he wanted. You know,

600
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,880
Speaker 1: he was pretty upfront about that. Yeah. And then it

601
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 1: looks like he's going to be the guy you know,

602
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:22,040
Speaker 1: last season and it gets snatched away in a preseason game,

603
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 1: Like that's painful, especially for a guy like JK. Yeah,

604
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,520
Speaker 1: And so I think that that has really taking a

605
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 1: toll on him. He kind of like went underground with

606
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,920
Speaker 1: his rehab. He hasn't said a whole lot, but you've

607
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: seen it now with Ian Rapp reports saying like, oh

608
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: he might not be ready for week one, He's like,

609
00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:38,239
Speaker 1: all right, I can't. I can't stay silent anymore, like

610
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 1: you know, and you saw that kind of fiery competitiveness

611
00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 1: in him come out just on Twitter. Yeah, and now

612
00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,480
Speaker 1: we're seeing it on the field too. Yeah, totally. So

613
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see him once he does ultimately

614
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: get activated off the publist. Just as a reminder, on

615
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:53,880
Speaker 1: the publist, guys can be activated off at at any point.

616
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: So the players who are on there right now, Ronnie Stanley,

617
00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:01,439
Speaker 1: Marcus Peters, Gus Edwards, JK Tias Bowser, Ardarius washing oar

618
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:04,640
Speaker 1: Darius Washington, they could all get activated at any point,

619
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,720
Speaker 1: right And so I know that, like you you hear man,

620
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 1: there's the six guys start camp on the pop list.

621
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 1: It's not good, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's an

622
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: indication of where they are in their rehab. Ravens have

623
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 1: said over and over again they're gonna be patient with

624
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: these guys which I totally understand. So you don't want

625
00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: to rush him back. You want to make sure when

626
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,399
Speaker 1: they get back that they're going to stay on the

627
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:27,640
Speaker 1: field right well, and especially with JK. You know, if

628
00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 1: Gus isn't gonna be ready week one, that puts more

629
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:33,479
Speaker 1: even more importance on JK being at the top of

630
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,879
Speaker 1: his game week one. Yeah, you know what I mean, Like,

631
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,600
Speaker 1: you don't want to rush him back, and now all

632
00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,640
Speaker 1: of a sudden you don't have hit he or Gus. Yeah.

633
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,960
Speaker 1: So we've only had this point at recording, only seen

634
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 1: one practice, so we're not gonna make any too big

635
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: of any snap judgments here about what's taking place. The

636
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 1: backs shoulder threat of Devin Duvernet though, was pretty sick,

637
00:27:51,359 --> 00:27:55,359
Speaker 1: So your snap judgment is at the passing game we

638
00:27:55,440 --> 00:28:00,240
Speaker 1: need to practice anymore. It's pretty good Week one Jets. Yeah, no,

639
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,600
Speaker 1: but I mean that was a great thing to see,

640
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,400
Speaker 1: you know, we just like that hasn't been a high

641
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 1: completion pass for the Ravens offense in recent seasons, and

642
00:28:08,640 --> 00:28:10,719
Speaker 1: to like see that get completed and look the way

643
00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,439
Speaker 1: it did, to me, it was kind of a and

644
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,680
Speaker 1: like you're saying, it's one sliver of information right, it's

645
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:20,040
Speaker 1: one pass, but like if we see that continue and

646
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,959
Speaker 1: see that day in day out and consistently completing that

647
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,240
Speaker 1: kind of pass, to me, that's an indication of kind

648
00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:26,960
Speaker 1: of what we've talked about with Lamar Jackson, where he

649
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 1: has more zip on his passes, tighter spirals, you know,

650
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 1: making those sideline kind of precise throws. That's the next

651
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:36,159
Speaker 1: step that we've been looking to see from Lamar Jackson

652
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:37,960
Speaker 1: as a passer, and it's the next step from this

653
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,280
Speaker 1: receiving corps for sure. Yeah, do you Rene made a

654
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,200
Speaker 1: nice catch? Do Renee made a nice catch on that?

655
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,160
Speaker 1: And the back shoulder throw has not been Devin DuVernay's play.

656
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 1: I mean, that's not been like his type of route

657
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:49,480
Speaker 1: over his first couple of years in the league. And

658
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: so now that could be speaking of this receiving corps,

659
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,120
Speaker 1: we got a question here from Nicholas Welch at the

660
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: Lounge at Ravens on NFL dot Net. You can even

661
00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 1: longtime listener, longtime listener from down in Tampa. So yeah,

662
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 1: obviously you can see where I'm going here with this.

663
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 1: So Tampa Tampa listener, uh wants to know about Julio

664
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,840
Speaker 1: Jones and why the Ravens opted not to sign Julio Jones.

665
00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: Obviously he is now down there in Tampa Bay with Brady, Right,

666
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: So what is your take on this? Well, you know,

667
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 1: I certainly am not rolling out the addition of a

668
00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 1: veteran wide receiver at some point during training camp. To me,

669
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 1: it's always been a question of like the fit and

670
00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:31,760
Speaker 1: the cost, right, right player? Right? What's it? What is it? Right? Call?

671
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 1: What is it? How long you been here? Thank you

672
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,640
Speaker 1: very much? Um, you know, And and the contract details

673
00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:43,840
Speaker 1: on Julio was six million bass with the incentives of

674
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 1: max eight million dollar deal's on the cusp for me,

675
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 1: that might be a little rich for me. And obviously

676
00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 1: it depends on what Julio are you getting. You're getting

677
00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 1: the Julio three years ago? Are you getting the Julio

678
00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 1: of last year? You know, the past two years that's

679
00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:01,320
Speaker 1: been banged up a lot um, So, you know, and

680
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: to me, what I've consistently said is I want somebody

681
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:10,320
Speaker 1: that has experience that diversifies what the Ravens have right

682
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 1: now in their wide receiver corps. And isn't somebody that's

683
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 1: going to is somebody that still gives Duvernet and Prochet

684
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 1: and Tyland Wallace, the opportunities still grow in their careers, right,

685
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,640
Speaker 1: that's not just going to cannibalize those guys to such

686
00:30:24,680 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 1: a degree where like they're not really getting a fair shake, right.

687
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 1: And Julio Jones to me, especially if you pay him

688
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,560
Speaker 1: six million dollars, like he's gonna get a lot of

689
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 1: snaps when he's healthy, you know what I mean. And

690
00:30:36,600 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 1: so like, I don't know, somebody like Will Fuller to me,

691
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,239
Speaker 1: makes a little bit more sense because now it's that

692
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: speed threat that you lost with the trade of Hollywood Brown.

693
00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 1: It's probably comes in cheaper than Julio Jones would same

694
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 1: injury concerns, you know. But whatever you get, what you get,

695
00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. That's why he comes into discount,

696
00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 1: so to me, And who knows what numbers Will Fuller

697
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 1: end up signing for. Wide receivers are just expensive, yeah, period,

698
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 1: And so um, I think that there will be a

699
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 1: veteran at it at some point, but I don't think

700
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: it's going to be somebody with that big of a

701
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,440
Speaker 1: name in splash and money associated. Julio Jones was the

702
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: biggest name in the market. I mean, for sure, he's

703
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 1: been one of the best receivers in his career, over

704
00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: over the course of his career, and could the Ravens

705
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 1: make a trade at some point, right, that's one That's

706
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 1: the thing that I'm really interested in, you know, is

707
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: it trade for Lee Evans way back in the day.

708
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: I think that was a trade. I mean, I mean

709
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,240
Speaker 1: that one worked out really well. Obviously an Jan Bolden

710
00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 1: wasn't trade you know, um, so there could be moves, right, like, well,

711
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 1: that was different. That was like in March. I know,

712
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,040
Speaker 1: I know that i'd training him, but but but yeah,

713
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: I'd be curious if there's a trade. Ark's cost is

714
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: shown willingness to trade. But just the other thing on Julio,

715
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 1: like he's been a great player, but you know he

716
00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 1: played nine games in twenty twenty. He played ten games

717
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 1: last year. Are you in a trash relie right now?

718
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,160
Speaker 1: After you've been barking at me about how we should

719
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:57,880
Speaker 1: have made that move, I have not said we should

720
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: have made I love, I Love just a flip flopper

721
00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:04,080
Speaker 1: he had he had thirty No, I'm not a flip

722
00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: flopper at thirteen hundred yards. In twenty nineteen, he had

723
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 1: seven hundred and seventy one yards. In twenty twenty and

724
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: then in twenty twenty one with with the Titans, he

725
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 1: had four hundred and thirty four. But you wanted him,

726
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 1: Let's just be honest with our listeners. No, I'm not.

727
00:32:16,200 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 1: I actually I would love Julio Jones. I would love

728
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: Julio Jones. I think that if he's healthy that I

729
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 1: would take him, But I actually would not sign him

730
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 1: at that price at six mel Okay, yeah, I would not.

731
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: It's it's not like an outrageous number, but I think

732
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 1: it's a little bit over what I would want, right

733
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: And also again, like I think that if he is

734
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,360
Speaker 1: if you're getting him and he's playing sixteen games and

735
00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: he's available, then that's one thing. But like if he's

736
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: in and out of the lineup, then like then you're

737
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: kind of struggling to develop a chemistry and a rapport

738
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: with some of these other receivers that you want to

739
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 1: develop as well. And I think that's I mean that

740
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 1: that issue is still the case for will Fuller, right.

741
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,680
Speaker 1: Um too, you know the health aspect, So t Y

742
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 1: Hilton is another name out there, He's had health issues

743
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 1: in recent years. I mean, this is what happens generally

744
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: speaking when you get to the middle of training camp

745
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 1: and you're trying to add somebody, there's always going to

746
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: be a strike against them. Yeah, of course, that's why

747
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 1: they're still available. Yeah, and and and also we'll see

748
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,560
Speaker 1: if anybody gets released, you know, like the forty nine

749
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: ers just released defour the pass rush. You know, is

750
00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: there a receiver in that realm who ends up hitting

751
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 1: the market at some point in the next couple of weeks.

752
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: That's something to watch. But the receiver's had a good

753
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 1: day Day one and training camp there was maybe Eric's like,

754
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:25,560
Speaker 1: you know what I'll stampat. Yeah, it was good. Bateman

755
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 1: looked good, nice back shoulder pass to du Rene So

756
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 1: um the On Saturday, we're gonna have the open stadium

757

758

759
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,560
Speaker 1: with it being in front of a larger audience. You know,

760

770
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,240
Speaker 1: Last thing we did not talk about is the change

771
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,279
Speaker 1: from morning practice to afternoon How are you enjoying your

772
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:15,240
Speaker 1: good afternoon sweat, Garrett, Well, yesterday I hung out mostly

773
00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 1: underneath the canopy. The canopy you were hanging with the fans.

774
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 1: Ye oh yeah, I was sitting. I was keeping my

775
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,839
Speaker 1: time in the shade. That's I'm an expert of finding shade. Well,

776
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 1: you're also an expert in the big hideous, ugly buckethet

777
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,919
Speaker 1: the training camp had. Is a Garrett Downing legend. Yes, well,

778
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,839
Speaker 1: that's gonna come out here soon. I'd have to wear

779
00:34:33,880 --> 00:34:35,360
Speaker 1: it yesterday because I spent most of my time in

780
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,919
Speaker 1: the shade, But it will be making its appearance soon.

781
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,919
Speaker 1: The afternoon practice thing, just I know fans have asked

782
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:42,799
Speaker 1: about that, Like in the past few years, they've been

783
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:45,840
Speaker 1: morning practices. Now it's going to be afternoon practice. The

784
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:48,719
Speaker 1: answer to why that's going to be the case, and

785
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: we'll see if it ends up being something that holds

786
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:52,960
Speaker 1: throughout the entirety of training camp. But the answer as

787
00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,320
Speaker 1: to why that's going to be the case is, basically,

788
00:34:55,320 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 1: it's kind of like a ramp up to the entire day.

789
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,719
Speaker 1: You know, you have an opportunity to get more nutrition

790
00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:01,400
Speaker 1: during the day, you have a chance to get more

791
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,400
Speaker 1: hydration rather than players like getting here and getting right

792
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 1: out to the field. I don't know about you, the

793
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 1: morning workout's tough. The morning workout is difficult. It's kind

794
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,560
Speaker 1: of a I'm kind of a morning person. You're you

795
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: don't when's the last time you've done morning workout? Let's

796
00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:17,600
Speaker 1: when's the last time I haven't done a workout morning, afternoon,

797
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,000
Speaker 1: evening in for ever. So it's not about me, Yeah,

798
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 1: exactly what you're talking about here, Like it's it's so

799
00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:27,040
Speaker 1: that's the rationale that basically, over the course of the

800
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,280
Speaker 1: day they can kind of get built up to practice.

801
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: At two o'clock, you get breakfast, you get lunch, and

802
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: then like by the time you get out there, your

803
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,480
Speaker 1: body is kind of ready for that. That's just in

804
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 1: a better position. Yeah. Yeah, So anyway, thanks for listening.
