1
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: Fell great. It was a lot of fun being out

2
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,840
Speaker 1: there with my teammates and just the opportunity to compete

3
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:17,200
Speaker 1: at the pinnacle of anything is truly a blessing. And um,

4
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,640
Speaker 1: you know, to come out and have a great, great

5
00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: victory and to have so many people do you know,

6
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:28,080
Speaker 1: obviously such an awesome job. It was a lot of fun.

7
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:35,520
Speaker 1: I missed it. It feels like forever when you're you're

8
00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: going through certain processes, but um, honestly, I just do

9
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:42,840
Speaker 1: my best to take things one day at a time,

10
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 1: as the back of my hoodie says Strand by Strand,

11
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 1: and just like building a web, that's all you can do,

12
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,479
Speaker 1: just piece by piece, and you know, taking things one

13
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 1: one day at a time. And luckily for me, I'm

14
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: surrounded by a great support staff with you know, Moses

15
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: and Mids and Jim and the coaches and my teammates

16
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: and even my off season with PJ Over at Maxwell

17
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,119
Speaker 1: Performance in New Hampshire. Um, just I've had so many

18
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 1: blessings come into my life and so many people express

19
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:19,600
Speaker 1: to me so much love, uh that this has truly

20
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:23,920
Speaker 1: been a transformative experience for me just going through it.

21
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 1: So it was fun to see the heavens start off

22
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:31,119
Speaker 1: so fast and turn over how much energy you guys, right,

23
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 1: That's definitely a point of emphasis is starting fast, um,

24
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:42,960
Speaker 1: not not playing from behind. And it's it's always great

25
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,160
Speaker 1: when you could do that, whatever it is. It is

26
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 1: obviously if you don't and they go up, then you

27
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: just got to fight your way out. But yeah, it's

28
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: great when you can start ahead for sure yourself back

29
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,920
Speaker 1: up final all of it. What is that like as

30
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 1: you're going well, I haven't seen the film of it,

31
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: but I'm pretty sure they chipped me because I had

32
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: already had a sack at that point, and uh, the

33
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: attack will kind of pulled my helmet down from like

34
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: what I remember, you know, experiencing obviously, and I remember

35
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: being like kind of mad, just like you know, like

36
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,200
Speaker 1: but you you when you're out there, and just from

37
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 1: playing a lot of football over the years, you can

38
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 1: kind of experience, uh, just the feel of the game.

39
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 1: And I obviously felt based off the crowd noise and

40
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 1: just the the I don't know how to describe it,

41
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 1: is a feeling that the ball hadn't been gone yet.

42
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: So as soon as I, like I was on the ground,

43
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 1: I could feel it. I was like Okay, I'm getting

44
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: up and so then I shoved them and uh, I

45
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: just you know, three steps in launch. So it's a

46
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: great feeling from the Washington game. Obviously, we still have

47
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,679
Speaker 1: a lot to improve on, UM and you know, we're

48
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: heading in the right direction certainly, so we UH do

49
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,399
Speaker 1: a lot of We're doing a lot of things good.

50
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 1: Always more to improve and and the other thing I

51
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: wanted to mention was, UM, this whole process is you know,

52
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: I've realized two things. One, it's it's a U verse

53
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: you thing and so each individual person you obviously got

54
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,840
Speaker 1: to take accountability for uh for their own process and development.

55
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: But it's it's great to have a really supportive and

56
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: it's great to have a very supportive team you know

57
00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: around you. And the I use have been using the

58
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: word funktuy a lot. UH just you know, things are

59
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 1: you know, make sense. People know what they're doing and

60
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 1: know their assignments and are committed to doing whatever it

61
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: takes to perform those assignments. Practice the wait did I

62
00:03:53,680 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: have to down? Yeah, it's a lot in three days,

63
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: but I've been preparing. I you know, I think it's

64
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: it's a weird UH thing out in the world at large,

65
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: I'd say, just like you know that you think about ideas,

66
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: and it's like, as fans and as media, it's like

67
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: you only have access to so much information and obviously

68
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: I you know, I can't give much commentary on it,

69
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: which is what it is. A lot of it is,

70
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: you know, as they say, noise. Um, but um, yeah,

71
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 1: I just kept focusing on doing the things that I

72
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 1: had to do to prepare and uh, you know, let

73
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,240
Speaker 1: my actions speak for themselves. That's all you can do.

74
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,040
Speaker 1: Pretty take a final question, pretty deep blind that you

75
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 1: guys that year. Now, do you feel like you're competing

76
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: for our job? I don't really feel it's a competition

77
00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: because to me, and I said this earlier, this is

78
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 1: how I look at it. It's everything is about you

79
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,839
Speaker 1: versus you, And that is like a fundamental I believe

80
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: that in my heart of hearts, Uh, everything is about

81
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: you versus you, And all I can do is be

82
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,279
Speaker 1: uh is be the best version of Chase possible. And

83
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 1: it's like if I keep improving. Um. And there's there's

84
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,719
Speaker 1: so many areas in my life that I you know,

85
00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 1: before I became a patriot, I never even considered I

86
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: could grow in Uh, and and things that you know

87
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: that matter and UH and so to to be a patriot.

88
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: And you know, I always say either one of two

89
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: things as possible. Either Coach Belichick is one of the

90
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 1: greatest coaches of all time by accident or there's a

91
00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:28,680
Speaker 1: reason and a method behind UH. You know, everything we

92
00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 1: do and I have bought in and I'm committed to,

93
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 1: UH to whatever you know they asked me to do,

94
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,839
Speaker 1: and um, just just being a piece as part of

95
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: the team. Thank you.
