1
00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: All right, fire away, and what have you thought about

2
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: the offenses?

3
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:05,480
Speaker 2: First we can camp.

4
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:11,400
Speaker 1: We'relling four days in, right, four days in, so uh,

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 1: still installing, still learning, still teaching, you know, progressing. Okay,

6
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: you know it's obviously we're not a finished product, and uh,

7
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:21,799
Speaker 1: and we just continue to continue to learn and grow

8
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,439
Speaker 1: and work in different combinations up front the line, working

9
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 1: different combinations at receivers and running backs. Just we're still

10
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:31,240
Speaker 1: in this developmental phase, you know, developing all our players.

11
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,199
Speaker 1: As we get going deeper into camp, we'll bit you know,

12
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 1: we'll get more specific on you know, lineups and things.

13
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,879
Speaker 2: Like that for concern at all, or they just grow up.

14
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: I mean, look, it's it. We're four days in and

15
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 1: they're gonna happen. Typically at this time, y you know,

16
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 1: you would say defense is probably ahead of the offense,

17
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: you know, I mean it's it's always been that way

18
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: and and any turnovers can be you know, cause for

19
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 1: con but uh, we continue to coach and teach and

20
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 1: but on the other side of it, that's what you

21
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,760
Speaker 1: want your defense to do. So I'm kind of stuck

22
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: in the middle.

23
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 2: And injury Upka's dog.

24
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,280
Speaker 3: I know, if Tyson was limited.

25
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: Game jar and Yeh Jarring and Tyson should be out

26
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: there today, you know, just ankle. Ankle got rolled up on.

27
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: Both guys should be fine, probably more limited today. You'll

28
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: see Roy back Uh out there. He's been cleared to

29
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: he'll he'll be limited though, We're gonna monitor his his reps.

30
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: Josh Proctor Dewey had illness last week, so they both

31
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 1: missed a couple of days. We've had a little bit

32
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 1: of illness going around. But I think that's that's everybody.

33
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 1: I think that's UH that we've talked about. He was

34
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: gay was limited last week with the knee, so we're

35
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: just you know, he also went through rookie camp, so

36
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 1: we got a ton of reps there, so he he

37
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: had an early start. So we're just gonna keep monitoring

38
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: that and and making sure he's he's good to go good.

39
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 4: Some of the UH changes that you've made along UH offers.

40
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 2: In mind, how let's more comfortable. Do you feel about

41
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 2: the money he being able.

42
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 4: To convert in those third and fourth and short situations

43
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,760
Speaker 4: this year? The the numbers just didn't see one seemed

44
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,239
Speaker 4: to be something that you were satisfied with life.

45
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I mean we you know, we we know

46
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: we can improve there, get better. I think, you know,

47
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: once we get the pads on uh this week and

48
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 1: we really start, you know, kind of buckling down. I

49
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 1: guess I I in that that part of it. Well,

50
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: we'll see where where we are. But I like where

51
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 1: we're headed. You know right now what I've seen so

52
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: far and in the first four days, and and it's it's, uh,

53
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: I I just gotta you know, we we'll we'll have

54
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 1: a short yardist period coming up later this week, you know,

55
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 1: in pads and and you see you see exactly you

56
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: know what can be. And I think, uh, I think

57
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,079
Speaker 1: that's the the thing. You gotta really realize that right now,

58
00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: being in in in shorts, you can't get can't get

59
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 1: a lot.

60
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:04,560
Speaker 4: Done vehicle out of Tank this year with him having

61
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 4: a year behind him and just being able to drag

62
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 4: him in there, particularly in the middle of its fer

63
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 4: it's personically like mentions your is your center.

64
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think Tank has a has a

65
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: has a bigger role, you know, this year going into

66
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 1: year two, and and you know it's it's uh something

67
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,520
Speaker 1: that that you know we've been we've been looking at.

68
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: We we definitely know we gotta take take a little

69
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,320
Speaker 1: bit off of Travis and and and keep him healthy

70
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: for an entire season, and and Travis does a great

71
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: job with that. But yeah, I think Tank's role can

72
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: can definitely increase, especially in in those short yardist situations.

73
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 4: I mean, you guys are doing like red till last week,

74
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:47,040
Speaker 4: for example, the offense knows exactly what defense is gonna show.

75
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 2: Over the defense that is exactly what the offense is

76
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:49,480
Speaker 2: gonna show.

77
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,760
Speaker 4: So m m, this is just like what's the benefit

78
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,520
Speaker 4: of that, Like, what can you learn from that?

79
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: Well, you're right, it's we're not game plan on our

80
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 1: defense and they're not game plan in the offense. So

81
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 1: we are installing plays, they're installing defenses, and we just

82
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: we just go out and execute, you know, and want

83
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: to see what our guys know and can they play fast.

84
00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:19,160
Speaker 1: So a lot of a lot of situations are not conducive.

85
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 1: A route combination may not be conducive to the coverage

86
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: that they're playing, right, I mean, those are all and

87
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 1: we don't care about that. Again, we don't. I want

88
00:04:27,800 --> 00:04:30,920
Speaker 1: to see what guys know, are they running the right routes?

89
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: I want to see if Trevor's going through the progression

90
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: I want to see, you know, if we're if it's

91
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,520
Speaker 1: a team situation, protection aspects of that that that's the

92
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: teaching part of training camp. We're we're not in week five,

93
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's day five really of practice. So

94
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: we're not again, we're not you know, we're not scheming,

95
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: and so it does make it look awkward that the

96
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 1: offense may not, you know, be scoring every touchdown. Every

97
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,240
Speaker 1: time we put the ball near it is the.

98
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 2: Result of the play is almost irrelevant or no.

99
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,560
Speaker 1: I mean, look, yeah, you want to score on every play,

100
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:20,480
Speaker 1: and we're competitive on the field, but you know, if

101
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: we're not scheming and game planning, it's hard to just

102
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:27,720
Speaker 1: go you know, you want to you know, a touchdowns,

103
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 1: a touchdown. It's just it's it's a weird dynamic. It happened.

104
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 1: It's every year in training camp. It's just the way

105
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: it is. Every all thirty two teams are going through

106
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: the same thing. You know, this time it's early. Everybody's

107
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,680
Speaker 1: putting in their offenses, everybody's putting in their defenses, and

108
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: and you know there come to time in camp when

109
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:50,159
Speaker 1: it's it's so like they know exactly what's coming and

110
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 1: we know exactly what defense is going to be, but

111
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: at the same time, we want to see, you know

112
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:57,000
Speaker 1: what our guys.

113
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 2: Know, what do you like about the defense? So far?

114
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 1: They're playing fast, they're playing with some speed and you know,

115
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 1: obviously we'll find out excuse me, the physicality of it

116
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:11,279
Speaker 1: this week, you know, when the pads come on. But

117
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 1: just like how they're lining up there, they've been more

118
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: aggressive on the corners, you know, with with the alignments

119
00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: and and different things, so and moving some guys around.

120
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,880
Speaker 1: You know, it's not it's not the same guys where

121
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 1: we're trying to figure out pieces right and who can

122
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 1: fit where and who can play in different spots. So

123
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 1: it's been good.

124
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 4: What is the process that you go through as head

125
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 4: coach of determining who is best to call the play?

126
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 4: Is like, what's stuff you need to see in training

127
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 4: camp to help you make that decision?

128
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: Well, training camp is hard too because it's all scripted.

129
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 1: You know, that's what days off are for coaches. We

130
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: script the next three, four, five, six, seven practices. So

131
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,280
Speaker 1: you know, again we're not we're not scheming, you know,

132
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,039
Speaker 1: we're we're going down the list and it's you know,

133
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: I determine what the period is, what we're going to

134
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: work on, and then the coordinators, you know, we just

135
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 1: basically give we offense gives the defense down distant personnel

136
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 1: and we go from there.

137
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: Are there are there days and I know there's a

138
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: lot of high balls on practice, but are there days

139
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 2: where you just don't practice well? And was Saturday one

140
00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 2: of those for the offense?

141
00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: I mean you're gonna have those days. You know, it's

142
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: it happens, you know, and again defense is typically ahead

143
00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: of offense, but it's gonna, it's gonna happen. You know,

144
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: you just work through it. You know, that's what today's for.

145
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: We're not playing a game for a while, so it's

146
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 1: it's as coaches, it's time to make the corrections and

147
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: then as players you learn from that and you move

148
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: on and get better. Today.

149
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 2: How quick the defense is picking up what Ryan's trying

150
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 2: to do or.

151
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 1: Is I mean not really? I mean we got smart

152
00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 1: guys on defense, you know, picking up everything. You know,

153
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 1: simplicity is nice because they're they're doing the same things

154
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: both in and nickel defense. And you know, it's what

155
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,200
Speaker 1: walkthroughs are for in the afternoons to to get a

156
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 1: lot of repetition there. So, but they haven't put everything

157
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,040
Speaker 1: in yet either. I mean you're not seeing we're not

158
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: seeing everything. We're not seeing a ton of third down

159
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: exotic pressures and different things like that. So the base

160
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:21,800
Speaker 1: stuff has been good.

161
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,840
Speaker 2: What have you seen from Brian Thomas at this point there?

162
00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 2: You said before, he's picked up stuff pretty pretty good.

163
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,000
Speaker 2: It's camp's a different level.

164
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. No, he's been doing he's been doing a good job.

165
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,120
Speaker 1: He's competing, He's still he's still learning, he's still growing,

166
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 1: you know, learning the offense, but but in a good place.

167
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: You know, takes coaching well not only from us, but

168
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 1: from his from his peers on the field, and you know,

169
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 1: from Trevor and and and it's just it's right where

170
00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: he needs to be.

171
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 3: Coming up on a year for Devon Hamilton, do you

172
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,719
Speaker 3: get a sense that he's back to where he was

173
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 3: pretty pretty back issue?

174
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 1: Yep, I do. He's healthy, strong, you know, he's uh,

175
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 1: he's doing some really good things out there. It's coming

176
00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,720
Speaker 1: off the ball. I mean, yeah, it's uh, it's good

177
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 1: to see him back you know, to where to where

178
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 1: he was that pre pre back injury.

179
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 3: W How big of a loss was that for you

180
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 3: guys last year, especially a little of that defense.

181
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: I mean, it's big, it's a he you know, he's

182
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: he's a he's a stout player. He's a big player

183
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 1: in there. And that that that was a that was

184
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 1: a piece that was really missed cause now you're having

185
00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: to do it with maybe two other guys, you know,

186
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: and and uh with him, you know, he can play

187
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 1: all th all three downs for you if you need to.

188
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 1: And and so that was a big, big loss.

189
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,080
Speaker 2: Obviously you're a little busy right now. But Thursday night

190
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 2: at the new kickoff rule is gonna be shown.

191
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 4: I guess a little bit with the preseason opener. How

192
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,200
Speaker 4: much will you guys look at that, maybe look at

193
00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 4: some games next week before you play it to get

194
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 4: a sense of what that's gonna look like.

195
00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll definitely watch it. I don't know if we'll

196
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,559
Speaker 1: gain a lot from it, cause I don't think teams

197
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 1: are gonna do a lot with it. I think you're

198
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 1: gonna see, you know, hopefully we as coaches, uh that

199
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: are watching it that maybe we see some different kick

200
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:14,200
Speaker 1: types of kickoffs, you know, whether they wanna you know,

201
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: missile a kick down there, put it on the ground.

202
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 1: You know, put it in the corners, down that or whatever.

203
00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,120
Speaker 1: You know, maybe some of that, But I don't think

204
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: from a scheme standpoint, we'll see a whole We'll see

205
00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 1: a whole lot, not right now in preseason anyway?

206
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 2: Is that for everybody?

207
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,200
Speaker 3: You think everybody's inn to treat the preseason super vanilla special.

208
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: I'm sure they will. I'm sure they will, cause it's

209
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 1: all new, and you don't wanna. I don't think tip

210
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 1: your hand right now, you know, and let let teams,

211
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: especially teams early in early in the season that we

212
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 1: play that they can scheme you up.

213
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,480
Speaker 2: You learned, uh, you learned a lot week one by

214
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 2: watching the league in general. Or is this going to

215
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,440
Speaker 2: be an instance where this is so drastically different, where

216
00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 2: there's gonna be a lot of education on what people

217
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 2: are doing.

218
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: You're talking about the kickoff still kick off?

219
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean probably where I mean people try to

220
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 2: throw newbrinkles in on off. It's a defense every year

221
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,680
Speaker 2: or two. But is this about as drastic as an

222
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:05,959
Speaker 2: educational experience?

223
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: It is because it's different for everybody, right, It's the

224
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 1: the strategy is different, the approach is different. The obviously

225
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,480
Speaker 1: the alignment is going to be different. You know, people

226
00:11:16,520 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 1: are gonna look up and if they haven't been following it,

227
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: it's gonna be like whoa, you know, what what are

228
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: we doing? And and I think I think each week,

229
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: as we as we watch all the games, I think

230
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 1: we'll just continue to learn, you know, and and grow

231
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: and and really I think it comes down to that

232
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: the maybe that even the types of players that you use,

233
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 1: you know in your kickoff team, your kickoff return team.

234
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: You know who's back there returning the k you know,

235
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: all kinds of things can take place. Now is they

236
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 1: call your eye Over the first four days, that's been

237
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 1: a surprise. Not not, not really. I think I think

238
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,599
Speaker 1: it's it's kind of where we picked up from OTAs

239
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 1: right now. I think the first four days too, it's

240
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,959
Speaker 1: at acclimation phase and just kind of getting their legs

241
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 1: kind of back under them a little bit. This next

242
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: three days and then really four after this next break

243
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 1: are gonna be a big test for this team, you know,

244
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,960
Speaker 1: because the pads are coming on, practices get longer, and

245
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: I think that's when you're gonna start seeing some players

246
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 1: maybe start separating themselves.

247
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:22,720
Speaker 2: I'll piggyback kind of rephrase it a little bit.

248
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: You mentioned off the top, you'll kind of change up

249
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: some of the lineups a little bit of practice today. Yes,

250
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: we've been doing that the whole time so far. Yes,

251
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: you're rotating this week that you're excited to see, you know,

252
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 1: not Sacred Swem necessarily. No, I mean, there's not one

253
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: particular player. My message to the staff has been we

254
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 1: need to get them all in there right and get

255
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: them all to play, and and even get them in

256
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 1: there with with the first unit, you know, more see

257
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,160
Speaker 1: how just see how they respond with the with the

258
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,839
Speaker 1: first unit, you know, playing with Trevor, you know, playing

259
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 1: alongside of you know, uh, Mitch or Brandon or one

260
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: of those guys, or even on defense if you're in

261
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: the second day playing you know, with with Tyson Darby,

262
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: just mixing all those guys up. You know, So not

263
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,920
Speaker 1: one particular guy. But but we'll find out here in

264
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 1: the next you know, seven eight days kind of where

265
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:15,079
Speaker 1: we're headed.

266
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 2: How have you said any last one?

267
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 4: Have you seen Christian Kirk progress from that injury last year?

268
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 4: And how important is he gonna be just because you

269
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,119
Speaker 4: have Brian Thomins, Gape Davis kind of new new guys.

270
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 2: In the offense.

271
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:30,120
Speaker 1: Uh, Christian came back healthy. He he's been doing some

272
00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:32,200
Speaker 1: really good things. You know, it's good, good four days

273
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:36,839
Speaker 1: for him, feels good, feels strong. So he's definitely a

274
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: piece that both Brian and Gabe really rely on out there,

275
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:46,199
Speaker 1: I think, and uh, you know, I think another one

276
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,719
Speaker 1: that's maybe to your point, you know, Parker Washington is

277
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 1: kind of taking another step. And plus he's healthy too,

278
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:55,360
Speaker 1: coming off that injury from college last year and and

279
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,679
Speaker 1: all of that. He's another one. But Christian has done

280
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: a nice job.

281
00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,520
Speaker 2: Is there a question of it? Yeah? Is part of

282
00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:05,960
Speaker 2: what you do with Cam little testing range? I think

283
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 2: you know you had to get at a ten to

284
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 2: fifty seven year early last week or whatever? Do you

285
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 2: Is that something you do with Camp too? Or is

286
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 2: that more stuff?

287
00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 3: No?

288
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: I mean those are things we wanna, you know, with

289
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:18,600
Speaker 1: two kickers, we just wanna we wanna put 'em under

290
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,880
Speaker 1: some stressful situations, you know, and and and see what

291
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: they can see what they can do, you know. Uh,

292
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: but you know Cam's obviously got the leg to do it.

293
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: And but yeah, we're gonna continue to find ways of

294
00:14:35,200 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 1: putting both guys in more stressful, you know positions, you know,

295
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 1: in the next uh few weeks.

296
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 2: Thank you coach Y
