A 0:00:21.720 --> 0:00:25.480 really good day to day, exciting, exciting day. Guys who 0:00:25.480 --> 0:00:29.400 were into it practiced really hard on point for the 0:00:29.440 --> 0:00:32.000 vast most part. Certainly things to work on improve on, 0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:35.720 but I feel great about the mindset, the attitude, the effort, 0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:38.000 and we have a lot of good players out there 0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:41.080 who are playing well and learning our system and getting 0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:43.640 better every day. So what questions you have John? 0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:46.680 About quick the first time the wide vs had one 0:00:46.680 --> 0:00:47.240 on ones today? 0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:48.560 How we watching? 0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:50.800 I d no, I wasn't there. I was over at 0:00:50.840 --> 0:00:53.600 the rundrew. So I'll let you know tomorrow or whenever 0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:54.920 I see it on tape. 0:00:54.960 --> 0:01:04.000 How to look very competitive? Good? Is that it? 0:01:04.080 --> 0:01:05.039 That's the all time record? 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:07.600 Yeah? 0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:08.360 He came back out. 0:01:08.440 --> 0:01:09.360 Yeah he's okay. 0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:12.800 Did you have any up? Yeah, it's an ankle. 0:01:12.840 --> 0:01:14.640 It's not gonna be a long term ankle, you know, 0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:18.120 be a I don't know, maybe a week. I don't know, 0:01:18.160 --> 0:01:20.600 we'll see somewhere that range, you know. I don't hold 0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:22.039 me to it though, but it's not a long. 0:01:21.959 --> 0:01:25.200 Term Dealdale is still getting ramped up and turns up 0:01:25.240 --> 0:01:27.720 to the reps. O'dale is he still getting ramped up 0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:28.919 and turns to the reps and gets. 0:01:28.800 --> 0:01:31.959 A team right well, I mean I think O'Dell will 0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:33.440 be all the way till the first game, you know, 0:01:33.480 --> 0:01:35.800 and even beyond that. Uh, he has a good plan 0:01:35.800 --> 0:01:38.200 and a good pace. But uh, he practiced well today again, 0:01:38.280 --> 0:01:40.560 made numerous plays out there, So I thought all the 0:01:40.600 --> 0:01:43.520 receivers did a nice job, good practice passing game. Keith 0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:46.200 continues to take steps forward. So these guys are doing 0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:48.400 a good job left. 0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:52.960 Paper because he's still playing the gaps can do it back. 0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:57.040 We're going by day right now, like we have a 0:01:57.200 --> 0:01:59.280 priority right now in terms of a depth chart. By 0:01:59.320 --> 0:02:01.440 day then we'll flip guys dire for reps, and then 0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:03.200 another day or two it may change a little bit 0:02:03.240 --> 0:02:05.760 and we'll try some guys in some different spots. That'll 0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:09.639 probably go on for minimum of a week more and 0:02:09.680 --> 0:02:11.280 then we'll kind of work from there, probably. 0:02:13.160 --> 0:02:15.760 Borrow something that camp every we played in the Week two. 0:02:16.480 --> 0:02:19.120 I mean, how claefully we monitor that because. 0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:21.919 That's you get er not really at all. 0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:24.600 Right now, you know, we're not preparing for for the 0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:27.840 Bengals at this point. We're just we're focusing on ourselves, 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:30.120 trying to get our installs in and become as good 0:02:30.120 --> 0:02:31.639 as we could be at what we do. And then 0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:33.880 when we get closer to those games, we'll start thinking 0:02:33.919 --> 0:02:34.560 about that stuff. 0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:36.919 We're gonna talk to Kyle have let's say, just for 0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:40.120 a DC can g instransition to different pas. 0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:40.840 Do a great job? 0:02:40.880 --> 0:02:42.080 I mean, you know, it's safety. 0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:44.679 So he's obviously playing back a lot more than he 0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:46.680 played at Dime or Nickel last year. 0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:47.400 But he looks good. 0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:49.919 I think those two guys are both playing well together 0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:51.639 back there, and I'm excited for it. 0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:57.160 Loan Nelson Adlar so much to talk about n Say and. 0:02:57.240 --> 0:02:59.760 OBJ this preseason, his training camp. 0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:03.120 You've seen from Agal this offseason. 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:04.200 Well, probably the same things you saw. 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:06.679 He made numerous plays the last two days, right, He's 0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:09.000 played plays on the ball.

It's important to take advantage 0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:38.280 opportunities because the quarterback gives you opportunity, trusts you, and 0:06:38.360 --> 0:06:39.360 you want to keep his trust. 0:06:39.800 --> 0:06:47.800 It's been assay first year, I place. 0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:48.559 A stay of the course. 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:51.400 I think the best thing about him is he's so 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:54.120 electric and he's very confident who he is. 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.080 You know, it's not about being perfect, but confident who 0:06:57.120 --> 0:07:00.440 he is. Great speed, you know, he worked hard. 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:03.280 I just you know, stay the course and let the 0:07:03.360 --> 0:07:04.760 chips fall they may. I think he's gonna have a 0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:05.279 great season. 0:07:05.600 --> 0:07:08.800 That said Lamar and me is like in the league 0:07:08.800 --> 0:07:11.320 when he asking you have example this stuff? 0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:12.880 He got the dialogue. 0:07:13.400 --> 0:07:16.040 When you have conversations with quarterbacks about what they see 0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:20.040 techniques from DBS leverages, why the balls placed here or there? 0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:22.560 It takes a guy that's seeing enough tape and throwing 0:07:22.720 --> 0:07:25.920 enough balls to tell you his why. So that's a 0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:29.600 very experienced and seasoned thing from a quarterback like Lamar's 0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:30.400 at one. 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:31.800 Moment that stands out to ue. 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:32.480 Where's talking about? 0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:34.240 We we have them all the time.

If we have an explanation of what you 0:07:41.520 --> 0:07:44.200 see and what you saw what I was doing, then 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.240 we got better. You know, whether it's a you guys 0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:48.840 see a completion or incompletion.

It's 0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:28.000 not about it being easy. It's about the people that 0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:29.920 are teaching it. He's done a really good job of 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:33.079 explaining information to us. You know, our receiver coaches have 0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:35.120 done a really good job of teaching us the information 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:38.040 and you know, and it's it's going the right way. 0:08:38.080 --> 0:08:38.880 We're just getting better. 0:08:39.280 --> 0:08:41.199 And I want to be as versatile as possible.

This receiver group stack ups 0:08:58.920 --> 0:08:59.360 of the best. 0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:00.679 Uh. 0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:04.120 You know, I think we're we're working towards our uh 0:09:04.840 --> 0:09:06.400 you know, peak of explosiveness. 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:08.360 I wouldn't say we're there yet. 0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:11.920 This exact group, So it's hard for me to judge that, 0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:14.199 but I think that we have an opportunity to be 0:09:14.320 --> 0:09:16.920 explosive and we're gonna work on it and we'll be 0:09:17.040 --> 0:09:19.400 on the same page. And you know, reps after reps 0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:21.839 after reps, and then I think by season the picture 0:09:21.880 --> 0:09:22.720 Bill of Claire. 0:09:22.720 --> 0:09:25.000 How well did you know Delph before he got here, 0:09:25.040 --> 0:09:27.480 and how was it gonna describe his personality in the 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:28.640 room and in the field. 0:09:29.480 --> 0:09:32.719 Uh I, I mean, I've always been a fan of 0:09:32.800 --> 0:09:35.240 Odell from Afar. You know, we played each other while 0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:37.240 he was in New York and I was in Philly. 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:40.120 And obviously, you know, he always shows love. That's one 0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:42.679 of the greatest things about him as a player is 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:47.000 despite his level of stardom, he's always been so humble 0:09:47.360 --> 0:09:50.000 to show love to all his peers. And what I 0:09:50.120 --> 0:09:53.839 love about him being here is the humility and the 0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:57.760 family like type energy he's brought to this environment.

I think top to bottom, where if not 0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:07.160 the deepest team in the NFL from offense, defense, special 0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:09.679 teams all that. And I feel like everybody on the 0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:11.920 field is like I might like a Pro Bowl practice 0:11:11.920 --> 0:11:14.040 every day because just look around. It's just guys everywhere. 0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:17.400 But I mean, yeah, I have high expecation for myself, 0:11:17.440 --> 0:11:19.400 for the team, and I feel like we can make 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:20.120 all of them come true. 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:31.360 N what does their energy a more brothing to trying 0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:33.760 to bring out you know, in the defense, a Dolls 0:11:34.000 --> 0:11:34.680 kind of play runs. 0:11:36.679 --> 0:11:36.880 Yeah. 0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:39.120 I mean for the offense, I can understand how it'd 0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:41.560 be annoying hearing them all the time because they both 0:11:41.600 --> 0:11:44.240 have very distinct voices and talk NonStop. 0:11:44.400 --> 0:11:45.839 But for us, it gets us going. 0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:48.480 I mean when we have days where you know, it's 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:50.280 a dog days of camp and guys are feeling a 0:11:50.320 --> 0:11:54.360 little sluggish, those are two of the many guys that 0:11:54.440 --> 0:11:56.959 get us going. And one big play and just big 0:11:57.080 --> 0:11:59.800 energy guys and uh guys like ro Kwon, pek q, 0:12:01.400 --> 0:12:06.040 Daff Mattabik. Everybody's it's contagious on the defense, and it's 0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:08.120 pretty easy to find the auto man out who you. 0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:10.400 Enjoyed covering em, So who gets your ju to score? 0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:15.120 And when you see them, I mean everybody on that side, 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:19.640 I mean it's easy answers Mark. I mean, he's one 0:12:19.679 --> 0:12:21.760 of the best, if not the best position in the league, 0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:23.760 and I see why on a day to day basis, 0:12:25.000 --> 0:12:27.679 But even guys like Zay, like getting able to tackle 0:12:27.880 --> 0:12:30.760 Zay in open field or just being positioned, there's not 0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:32.480 a lot of guys in the league who can stop 0:12:32.520 --> 0:12:34.520 and start like he can. So it helps us in 0:12:34.559 --> 0:12:37.560 the secondary come down and tackle uh like Isaiah likely 0:12:37.720 --> 0:12:40.640 is another tight end who offers things that are completely 0:12:40.640 --> 0:12:43.360 different to Mark and to change up and and then 0:12:43.400 --> 0:12:46.520 to the receivers like dude super fast. 0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:48.839 Odell has just got full package everything. 0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:51.199 So you get everything that you could possibly look for 0:12:51.280 --> 0:12:53.440 in the offense on our side of the ball every day. 0:12:53.440 --> 0:12:54.880 So I think we're being compared pretty well. 0:12:56.400 --> 0:12:56.959 Onel. 0:12:58.040 --> 0:13:00.959 What you know about preparing year that you can do 0:13:01.040 --> 0:13:04.320 do go left us. It's seasons long. 0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:08.439 It's a long year, and whoever's hitting their stride later 0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:10.800 in the season is who's gonna ultimately come out on top. 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:13.839 It's easy to go through ebbs and flows throughout the 0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:16.480 season and going to two game win streak and then 0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:19.120 two game losing streak, and it's kind of the story 0:13:19.160 --> 0:13:21.560 of your season. And depending on how you bounce back 0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:24.400 from losses or how you build on wins, just it's 0:13:24.440 --> 0:13:27.360 gonna determine how you end up in February. So hopefully 0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:32.040 we can be the strongest team and peak next early 0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:32.520 next year. 0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:37.400 And Mark's ways interchangeably at times you might still be 0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:38.960 up to full lines, She'll be up a little. 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:41.679 How does that flexibility help you with the defense and 0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:43.359 then affect your partnership. 0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:45.880 Yeah, I think it helps because I think we both 0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:49.319 offer a lot of things that we both do pretty well, 0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:51.559 whether that be playing in the post, being rangy, or 0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:54.839 being able to come down and hit. I don't think 0:13:54.840 --> 0:13:57.040 there's necessarily like a free or strong safety when it 0:13:57.080 --> 0:13:59.479 comes to us. I think we're both pretty interchangeable, interchangeable 0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:01.319 when it comes to that, so kind of keep the 0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:03.440 quarterback on his toes because he doesn't know who's gonna 0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:06.360 be playing, what, who's gonna be blitzing, who's gonna be 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:08.800 covering all that kind of stuff. So I think it 0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:11.920 helps to have that kind of dynamic feel to our room. 0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:14.280 And I think from top to bottom, maybe like Daryl 0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:19.440 Worley and Gino Stone, guys like that, our Darius Washington, 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:22.200 everybody's pretty versatile in our room, and our dB coaches 0:14:22.200 --> 0:14:24.080 always preach he used to be able to play every 0:14:24.120 --> 0:14:24.480 position in. 0:14:24.480 --> 0:14:26.480 The secondary, So I think we kind of lived by that. 0:14:27.600 --> 0:14:32.040 I feel he's training any last year, what do you think, 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:33.080 you know, where. 0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:34.240 Do you think here's this? 0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:34.960 Like? 0:14:35.400 --> 0:14:38.440 Oh, I mean Zay coming in last year. 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:40.760 He just kind of even from rookie minicamp, we just 0:14:40.880 --> 0:14:43.360 kind of looked different than everybody else, just being out 0:14:43.360 --> 0:14:45.040 on the field, the way he moves at his size. 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:45.760 Uh. 0:14:46.120 --> 0:14:47.800 But from last year to this year, I can just 0:14:47.840 --> 0:14:50.960 tell its confidence. Uh, it's gone up a lot. I mean, 0:14:51.000 --> 0:14:52.760 he proved himself last year that he can produce in 0:14:52.840 --> 0:14:55.520 this league and the offense is getting in more looks 0:14:55.520 --> 0:14:58.400 and stuff like that, more touches deservedly so so uh, 0:14:58.480 --> 0:14:59.800 hopefully we'll be able to make that into a big 0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:02.200 oportunity for himself, and I'm pretty sure that it will. 0:15:03.480 --> 0:15:04.120 It's a good. 0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:06.640 Yeah. 0:15:06.760 --> 0:15:10.440 I mean twenty twenty what year is it, twenty twenty three, 0:15:10.480 --> 0:15:13.120 twenty twenty three, and twenty twenty two. At this time, 0:15:13.160 --> 0:15:15.720 I feel like are two complete different people. Just mentally, 0:15:17.080 --> 0:15:18.720 I'm making a lot of checks, a lot of calls 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:21.520 back there, and it's kind of cool, like having guys 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:24.920 like Rokwon and Patrick looking for me for checks and 0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:26.160 stuff like that and being able to give it to 0:15:26.240 --> 0:15:26.880 them confidently. 0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:28.800 It's a big difference from. 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:30.280 Last year, and I feel like that was the biggest 0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:33.840 step that I've taken, not even physically, just mentally being 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:34.920 able to lead out there. 0:15:35.280 --> 0:15:38.160 With calls and checks and stuff like that. You don't 0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:45.120 playing a little bit more, you getting and being able 0:15:45.120 --> 0:15:45.960 to more of a play. 0:15:47.760 --> 0:15:51.120 Yeah, I think being in that role I was last year, 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:53.080 like being a nickel, I think it helps now because 0:15:53.640 --> 0:15:56.040 now we have that card in our back pocket if 0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:58.440 you need to play it. But right now, like you said, 0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:01.560 I've been playing safety and uh, it's helped me a 0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:04.720 lot just being able to play this position at this level. 0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:06.960 And like I said, playing against these guys every day 0:16:07.440 --> 0:16:10.880 doesn't get much better than this. And I think I've 0:16:10.920 --> 0:16:12.560 been prepared very well for the season right now. 0:16:16.440 --> 0:16:21.840 Yes, we'll finish today's press conferences with past game coordinator 0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:32.240 and secondary coach Chris hewittticality. 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:30.720 That things got helped same. 0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:37.240 Time. A physical I mean that's part of the game, right, 0:16:37.320 --> 0:16:39.720 That's that's that's what we talk about, Raven DNA. We 0:16:39.800 --> 0:16:42.520 talk about guys being physical, and that's at every level 0:16:42.560 --> 0:16:45.440 of our defense, whether that's the corners, safeties, everybody's going 0:16:45.480 --> 0:16:47.760 to wants to be physical, right, So we want guys, 0:16:48.080 --> 0:16:50.160 especially at the corner position, we're going to put hands 0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:52.280 on people of disrupted timing. And then when it comes 0:16:52.320 --> 0:16:54.160 to the the ball being run or we're out in space, 0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:57.200 we're gonna be physical and tackling. That's that's that's regardless 0:16:57.240 --> 0:16:58.840 of wherever we have out there, we got we got 0:16:58.880 --> 0:16:59.920 guys that are gonna be physical. 0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:01.880 Look at ball on the day, I. 0:17:01.920 --> 0:17:03.960 Mean, well, how do you think that who takes gets? 0:17:04.840 --> 0:17:06.159 You think that kind of a history when you. 0:17:06.240 --> 0:17:07.880 Look at it like, that's the thing that jumps out 0:17:07.880 --> 0:17:12.040 to bas That's definitely what he is. He's definitely a 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:14.800 physical corner. He's an old school guy. He can play like. 0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:18.840 He's got that mentality that he's a you know, linebacker mentality. 0:17:18.840 --> 0:17:20.560 He's coming up when he wants to hit, he's punching 0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:21.080 the ball out. 0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:22.240 I mean you got to you. 0:17:22.240 --> 0:17:24.479 Gotta be on point wherever wherever Marlin's at because he's 0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:25.399 you know, great blitzer. 0:17:25.760 --> 0:17:28.359 You know, he's a total package. He's got the speed, power, 0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:29.280 he's got all of. 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:36.520 That and the things we live a little now, that's. 0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:39.840 Competition and what stet out. 0:17:40.560 --> 0:17:43.600 Well right now, like I said, right now, we got Marlin, 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:45.960 he solidified himself as as one of the corners. And 0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:47.680 then we got Rock who's right now he's got the 0:17:47.760 --> 0:17:50.200 nod but jelling armor Davis, he's pushing him as well. 0:17:50.320 --> 0:17:52.320 You know, I look for big things from him coming up. 0:17:52.720 --> 0:17:55.240 But it's gonna be a competition throughout the whole whole 0:17:55.280 --> 0:17:56.879 training camp and we'll find out who comes out of 0:17:56.960 --> 0:17:59.560 him right now. And he's in particular start out to 0:18:00.520 --> 0:18:02.720 making plays. That's that's what we're gonna be greater on. 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:04.159 And that's what those guys are being great and on. 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:06.679 They gotta be able to make make plays when it counts. 0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:10.240 We'll play for rope before he got here and since. 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:13.520 But he's a lot like my thing is, I want 0:18:13.560 --> 0:18:15.400 guys that are being a physical and that's what Rob bring. 0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:17.560 He said, bring to the table. He's a physical corner. Okay, 0:18:17.600 --> 0:18:19.439
