1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,440
Speaker 1: It was good. Um, first time for me up there

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:06,240
Speaker 1: to see it, see it in person. Very special, you know,

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 1: Um obviously the not only see the eight that went in,

4
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:13,280
Speaker 1: but but all the other guys are there, you know,

5
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 1: all the other Hall of famers, and um, it's a

6
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: special it's a special deal. And uh really it really

7
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 1: meant a lot to me because I love the history

8
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,640
Speaker 1: of the game, you know, and kind of how how

9
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:26,760
Speaker 1: people kind of come up through this, through this league,

10
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,280
Speaker 1: and and um I thought all this, all the speeches

11
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,320
Speaker 1: and presentations, we were well done. And and um Tony's

12
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,239
Speaker 1: was exceptional. It was good to see you know him

13
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: and obviously his family and um, yeah, it's a good day.

14
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 1: Could you deal with the importance it had on the

15
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 1: city of Jacksonville just with all those fans being in there.

16
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, there's a ton of fans there. Um,

17
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: you know, organizationally, we had a lot of people there obviously,

18
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 1: you know, the media was there. Um. And really felt

19
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: the impact of you know, I think the love the

20
00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 1: city has for for this team, for this organization over

21
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: the years, and uh yeah, definitely felt yesterday. Yeah, you

22
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: have to putting more time to evaluate forwards now you

23
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: do you feel in any way better about what you

24
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:18,240
Speaker 1: saw than right after the game. Um, yeah, I mean,

25
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: you know, it's never as never as good as you think.

26
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: It's never as bad as you think. There were some

27
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,839
Speaker 1: good individual efforts, you know out there during the game.

28
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 1: I think there's still there's a lot of things we've

29
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 1: got to clean up, you know, and it's just it

30
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 1: just comes down to fundamentals and details. You know. We

31
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: spent the first two weeks of camp really installing offense

32
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: and defense, and so there was a lot of I

33
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:38,759
Speaker 1: think from a from a mental standpoint, there's a lot

34
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,199
Speaker 1: of things too that we kind of throw at these guys.

35
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 1: And now that we're kind of into the meat and

36
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 1: potatoes to train to camp, things begin to you know

37
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 1: slow down from an installation standpoint, and we can go

38
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 1: back and and really fine tune in detail, you know,

39
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: some of the assignments, some of the details that we

40
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,480
Speaker 1: we and some of the mistakes we made in the game,

41
00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: and and um, you know, build towards this next one.

42
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 1: There's the one are they incurred In fact, there's only

43
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: one free snap them only in offense that was late

44
00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: and there were no like panicky timeouts because somebody didn't

45
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: get in or lined up for its institution issues. Yeah,

46
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: that part that that that game management stuff, Um, I

47
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: thought went smoothly, you know it. It might have looked smooth,

48
00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: but I know on the sideline there's some there's some

49
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,239
Speaker 1: chaos because there's a lot of bodies that we're trying

50
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,320
Speaker 1: to get in, especially in the second half. But I

51
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 1: was pleased with the pre snap you know, the presnap

52
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:30,040
Speaker 1: stuff there. There probably could have been a couple of more,

53
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: but um, overall, you know, the guys, guys really um

54
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: you know, took that part of it to heart and

55
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: you know we'll be we'll be better for it again

56
00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: this week. What do you want to see from your

57
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 1: matteran players at this point of camp kind of expect

58
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:46,600
Speaker 1: from them because they're not going to be a lot

59
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: of rents to proofings and so for camp and practice,

60
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: what do you want to see? Well, I just you

61
00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:55,080
Speaker 1: just gotta see constant improvement. Excuse me, constant improvement, you know,

62
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: every day every week. You know, as I said that

63
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,959
Speaker 1: the installations as far as putting in the information is

64
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 1: tapering off now, so we can continue to go back

65
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:09,080
Speaker 1: and you know, fine tune assignments, alignments, the details of

66
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: routes run game, the fits for the offensive line, things

67
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 1: like that. Um, and that's what you gotta see. And

68
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: that's that's where the that's where the you know, the

69
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: constant improvement needs to needs to start start showing up

70
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: here in these next uh, you know, several weeks before

71
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 1: before the regular season. What have you seen so far

72
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 1: from some of the young receivers like Tim Jones, Jeff Connon.

73
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,920
Speaker 1: I think they've you know, they've they've done well in

74
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: these first couple of weeks of camp. You know, they've

75
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: put themselves in a position to you know, compete and uh,

76
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 1: making hard on us as a staff at the end

77
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,200
Speaker 1: of camp too, you know, to find the five or

78
00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 1: six or seven guys whatever it might be. And um,

79
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 1: but yeah, they've they've done really well. They've they've you know,

80
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: haven't made a ton of mental airs, you know out here. Um,

81
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: you know they carried over into the game just a

82
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: little bit. But there are some things we can still

83
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: clean up. And you know, that's one thing I like

84
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: about both those guys is they they really pay attention

85
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: to that and take the coaching and then and then

86
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 1: come out here and fix it. There's been a couple

87
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: of guys. You guys have been able to pick up

88
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 1: from the USFL some of the other leagues. How much

89
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: evident manage has been having you know, more leagues and

90
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 1: given more players opportunities that you know, putting reps on tape.

91
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: I was one of those guys, you know, back when

92
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: I played, I played in the World League, you know,

93
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 1: two different times. And it just benefits. You know, the

94
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: more snaps you can get um against good competition, the

95
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: better the better you are as a as a player.

96
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,040
Speaker 1: And you know, every team is looking, every team is watching,

97
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 1: and and uh, you get an opportunity to come to

98
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:40,240
Speaker 1: an NFL camp and and showcase and very very beneficial

99
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: that that we can start having some of these spring

100
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: leagues pop up and and uh really kind of be

101
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 1: a I want to say a feeder, but at least

102
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: an opportunity for these young guys to play. Yeah, Devin

103
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 1: Lloyd is still gonna be day today. We're still gonna

104
00:04:56,279 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 1: monitor his his progress. He's doing well though. Um JT.

105
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: You're gonna see uh in some more individual work today

106
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 1: in practice. And jamal let's see jamal um who the

107
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:15,160
Speaker 1: other two c J Bethred and J T O went fully, Yeah,

108
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: Fully is going to be more individual, but c J

109
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 1: and Agg knew should be able to get some team

110
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,760
Speaker 1: reps today on a limited basis. What did you see

111
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,839
Speaker 1: out of Walker Little? He got to play the entire

112
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,919
Speaker 1: first half. I thought he thought he played well, you

113
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: know he Um, he settled in right away. Um, you know,

114
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: his his run blocking past protection. You know, I thought

115
00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 1: he was thought he was focused and dialed in, you know,

116
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 1: and and really had a good first half and and

117
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: and really good to see, you know, because you know

118
00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: he's in that sort of that battle with with JT

119
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:51,000
Speaker 1: over there at the right side, and um, he did uh,

120
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: you know, he did everything he could to put his

121
00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: best foot forward. You know. The other night did a

122
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: nice job. The other night said that you and Josh

123
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 1: McDaniels has had a phone call talking about how you're

124
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 1: gonna approach game one or do you do that? Was

125
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:04,599
Speaker 1: that just because it was game one? Are you gonna

126
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 1: do that with every every preseason game? Not necessarily every game? Um,

127
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 1: but you know, Josh and I just spoke to just

128
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,559
Speaker 1: kind of lay out a couple of ground ground rules,

129
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: you know, going into this first one, because we knew

130
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: we were playing both sides. We're gonna play a lot

131
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,040
Speaker 1: of guys, and and we wanted to keep it as

132
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,160
Speaker 1: kind of vanilla as simple as possible, so you guys

133
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 1: can just go play and execute and and really get

134
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: on tape and and then make the necessary corrections. But

135
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 1: I mean it's common that coaches in preseason we'll talk

136
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: like that, and uh, you know, um, I can't say

137
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,360
Speaker 1: moving forward that I'll do that, but but it is common.

138
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: Was it more about preseason game number one? Wasn't more

139
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,480
Speaker 1: about you also play in the regular season? Now, it

140
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: was more about preseason one? Yeah, Walker got his first game. Actually,

141
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,040
Speaker 1: just what was it like seeing im for that first

142
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 1: contents change where? Yeah, you know, I mean, gosh, he

143
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 1: uh he did some did some nice things. Unfortunate you know,

144
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 1: first play, got the penalty, but after further view, right, um,

145
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,320
Speaker 1: uh but no, I thought he played well, played hard.

146
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: You know, Um, you could probably work on his get

147
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 1: off a little bit more, but um, you know overall overall,

148
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 1: played well, settled in, not too big for him, and uh,

149
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 1: everything you expected out of your first pick. All right,

150
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 1: thanks guys,
