<v Speaker 1>It is Wednesday, July thirty first, and you're listening to

0:00:05.160 --> 0:00:07.880
<v Speaker 1>the Ravens Press Pass podcast. After practice today, we had

0:00:07.880 --> 0:00:10.280
<v Speaker 1>a chance to hear from Raven's head coach John Harball.

0:00:14.560 --> 0:00:17.279
<v Speaker 2>Okay, good to see everybody here. Appreciate you gutting it

0:00:17.360 --> 0:00:17.840
<v Speaker 2>out today.

0:00:18.960 --> 0:00:19.560
<v Speaker 3>Uh, it was.

0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:21.680
<v Speaker 2>It was a hot one, you know, and the guys

0:00:21.760 --> 0:00:24.759
<v Speaker 2>focus as well and pushed it. Fans are great as always.

0:00:25.239 --> 0:00:28.639
<v Speaker 2>And then we had the first responders from the key

0:00:28.680 --> 0:00:31.880
<v Speaker 2>Bridge collapse and I got some coins and some patches

0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:34.479
<v Speaker 2>which I'm very very proud of right.

0:00:34.320 --> 0:00:35.400
<v Speaker 3>Here, and.

0:00:37.280 --> 0:00:40.479
<v Speaker 2>Fire Dive Rescue the whole group, so we appreciate them

0:00:40.600 --> 0:00:43.360
<v Speaker 2>very much. It's very meaningful when we have the heroes.

0:00:43.520 --> 0:00:46.000
<v Speaker 2>The real heroes are here, so we honor those guys.

0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:47.239
<v Speaker 2>What questions you have.

0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:51.080
<v Speaker 4>Yet?

0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:52.680
<v Speaker 5>Together, we.

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:57.840
<v Speaker 4>Take a lot of heat pails for that.

0:00:58.080 --> 0:00:59.640
<v Speaker 2>There was well, we we worked on a lot of

0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:02.600
<v Speaker 2>were down third and six to twelve situations, so some

0:01:02.640 --> 0:01:04.800
<v Speaker 2>of that stuff comes up pushing the ball downfield.

0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:07.399
<v Speaker 3>Then we had a big blitz period where the offense

0:01:07.480 --> 0:01:09.679
<v Speaker 3>hit numerous plays downfield in the blitz period, so.

0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:11.440
<v Speaker 2>That was that was important to see and it was

0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 2>good to see the ball was coming out quick and

0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:16.440
<v Speaker 2>executing like we need to against that that that pressure.

0:01:16.560 --> 0:01:18.440
<v Speaker 3>So that's a big step for us. I thought the

0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:19.480
<v Speaker 3>guys did a great job of that.

0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 6>The camps.

0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:25.400
<v Speaker 4>It's Arthur Moett.

0:01:25.440 --> 0:01:25.959
<v Speaker 6>How cares it.

0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:27.080
<v Speaker 4>Can sign that.

0:01:29.400 --> 0:01:31.640
<v Speaker 2>Very key to re sign Arthur Mallett. You know, he's

0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:33.760
<v Speaker 2>he's a guy that I was pretty confident we were

0:01:33.760 --> 0:01:35.840
<v Speaker 2>gonna resign all the way. You know, I felt like

0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:38.360
<v Speaker 2>he wanted to be here and we wanted him back,

0:01:38.400 --> 0:01:41.160
<v Speaker 2>and Eric had a good plan and uh, you know,

0:01:41.200 --> 0:01:43.240
<v Speaker 2>it's kind of one of these things. You know, sometimes

0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:46.280
<v Speaker 2>sometimes the right players looking for the right team, and uh,

0:01:46.400 --> 0:01:48.960
<v Speaker 2>I feel like Arthur was the right player for us

0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:50.400
<v Speaker 2>and we were the right team for him. And it's

0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:51.800
<v Speaker 2>really it's really paying off.

0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:54.480
<v Speaker 4>What happened to the leik have and just how disappointing

0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:56.600
<v Speaker 4>is it. Local kid made the team last year.

0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:57.480
<v Speaker 7>It had been a really good.

0:01:57.680 --> 0:01:59.440
<v Speaker 3>Last My league was doing so well.

0:01:59.560 --> 0:02:02.560
<v Speaker 2>Local guy, Uh really, you know he had to had

0:02:02.560 --> 0:02:05.600
<v Speaker 2>the injury last year and it's it's so amazing because

0:02:05.920 --> 0:02:08.000
<v Speaker 2>you go back and watching the tape up until when

0:02:08.040 --> 0:02:10.359
<v Speaker 2>the injury happened, he was having a great practice. He

0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:13.160
<v Speaker 2>had numerous run stops, he had a sack and then

0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:15.480
<v Speaker 2>just a freaky little thing where he had to put

0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:17.320
<v Speaker 2>his foot in the ground and got pushed a little

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:19.359
<v Speaker 2>bit right at that moment, and sometimes that's what happens

0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:21.560
<v Speaker 2>with the A c L. So he has a clean

0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:25.000
<v Speaker 2>a cl A tear. Uh, So he does mean he's

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:27.280
<v Speaker 2>out for the season, but it also means it boats

0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:29.960
<v Speaker 2>well for a very good recovery. Now, his spirits were

0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:33.280
<v Speaker 2>very upbeat, positive about the test he's gonna go be

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:34.920
<v Speaker 2>going through in the testimony that he's gonna have an

0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:37.280
<v Speaker 2>opportunity to make when it's all said and done. But

0:02:37.320 --> 0:02:39.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure, uh he's very disappointed, you know when he's

0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:42.720
<v Speaker 2>back in the quiet moment by himself and uh, he

0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:44.400
<v Speaker 2>was he was gonna play for us this year or so,

0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:51.760
<v Speaker 2>but his time will be coming here. Yeah, trayvon Mullin

0:02:51.840 --> 0:02:55.200
<v Speaker 2>landed on his shoulder, uh sub lectsed it. So it'll

0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:56.679
<v Speaker 2>be a few weeks and then we expect him to

0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:57.040
<v Speaker 2>be back.

0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:02.760
<v Speaker 7>And he even saw Sean walk off kind of later

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:03.600
<v Speaker 7>in the practice.

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 2>Was that Hope cautioner or you know, Yeah, he's dealing

0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:09.120
<v Speaker 2>with a little issue, kind of a soft tissue issue.

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:10.800
<v Speaker 3>I think he's trying to nurse through right now.

0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:14.760
<v Speaker 2>What do you what are you hoping you guys might

0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.160
<v Speaker 2>get from Travis Jones this year and what would constitute

0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:18.280
<v Speaker 2>a good step forward to him?

0:03:18.320 --> 0:03:18.480
<v Speaker 6>Think?

0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:21.520
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean, I'm you know, I have a big

0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 2>vision for Travis. He and I have talked about it,

0:03:23.720 --> 0:03:24.600
<v Speaker 2>a real big vision.

0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:24.840
<v Speaker 6>You know.

0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:29.120
<v Speaker 2>I really have high expectations for Travis Jones to have

0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:31.120
<v Speaker 2>one of those years that is going to be memorable.

0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:33.240
<v Speaker 2>I really believe that's going to happen this year. I'm

0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:35.680
<v Speaker 2>looking forward to it. He's put the work in and

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:37.360
<v Speaker 2>he's continues to do the work.

0:03:37.360 --> 0:03:37.920
<v Speaker 3>He looks great.

0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:43.280
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, defensive back, you talked a little bit about this.

0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:45.840
<v Speaker 7>You've got a lot of guys, a lot of talented guys.

0:03:46.400 --> 0:03:50.200
<v Speaker 7>A good problem to have, how I guess, tricky build up,

0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:52.680
<v Speaker 7>make that a few weeks from now in terms of

0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:54.720
<v Speaker 7>figuring out you know.

0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:55.200
<v Speaker 8>To do that.

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:57.920
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's a good point, like to really take it

0:03:57.920 --> 0:04:00.880
<v Speaker 2>one day at a time and get there you know first,

0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:03.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, then uh then there'll be opportunities, you know.

0:04:03.840 --> 0:04:06.119
<v Speaker 2>But we've got a deep group back there. Man, there's

0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:09.240
<v Speaker 2>every single guy in the secondary, to my eyes, playing

0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:11.960
<v Speaker 2>playing very well, playing like a playing like a fifty

0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:13.040
<v Speaker 2>three man type of guy.

0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:15.800
<v Speaker 3>So it's a good thing.

0:04:16.440 --> 0:04:20.240
<v Speaker 4>Here is the year is now get especially the wide

0:04:20.240 --> 0:04:21.919
<v Speaker 4>receiver at the tight end on the roster. Can you

0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:23.520
<v Speaker 4>just talk about what you've seen from them.

0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 2>As a tight end that, Yeah, Kader Ismael is doing

0:04:26.560 --> 0:04:28.760
<v Speaker 2>a great job, really and everything's been asked to do.

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:32.080
<v Speaker 2>He's even in there blocking really pretty darn good. I'm

0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:34.360
<v Speaker 2>sure he could use a couple more squats and bench

0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:36.120
<v Speaker 2>presses before he's really ready to go in there and

0:04:36.120 --> 0:04:39.039
<v Speaker 2>do it. But man, he doesn't back down from any challenge.

0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:41.560
<v Speaker 2>And he's playing tight end, but he's also playing receiver.

0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:44.000
<v Speaker 2>We're kind of moving him back and forth, doing the

0:04:44.000 --> 0:04:47.000
<v Speaker 2>same thing with Scotty Washington and uh, but I think

0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:48.080
<v Speaker 2>I think he's doing a great job.

0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:49.800
<v Speaker 3>Scotty's doing doing a very good job too.

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.039
<v Speaker 6>How much do you think Trent Simpson benefited from the

0:04:53.080 --> 0:04:55.800
<v Speaker 6>opportunity last year to come of get in an NFL

0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:59.359
<v Speaker 6>streadth and tniching program, to be in those benings, to

0:04:59.440 --> 0:04:59.920
<v Speaker 6>be with.

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:03.840
<v Speaker 8>Veteran linebackers, right, Patrick Green it have you.

0:05:03.839 --> 0:05:05.800
<v Speaker 4>Kind of seen him take that jump this year?

0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:08.560
<v Speaker 2>I've seen him take the definitely seen Trent take that

0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:11.440
<v Speaker 2>jump this year. Jeff he's he's and there's still things

0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:13.120
<v Speaker 2>he's got to work on. I mean there's times, you know,

0:05:13.160 --> 0:05:15.200
<v Speaker 2>you've got his zone coverage, you've got to carry a

0:05:15.200 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 2>crossing route back across the field, or or you've got

0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:20.000
<v Speaker 2>to get under something that's coming back inside, and he's

0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:21.920
<v Speaker 2>he may be pushing out when he should be pushing

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:24.760
<v Speaker 2>in those kinds of things. But but that's all part

0:05:24.760 --> 0:05:27.320
<v Speaker 2>of the process, and probably the last part of the

0:05:27.320 --> 0:05:32.120
<v Speaker 2>process is understanding all the zone coverage details. He's flying around, man,

0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:35.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he's he's running, he's making plays, he's confident,

0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:36.920
<v Speaker 2>he's a quick learner.

0:05:37.360 --> 0:05:38.479
<v Speaker 3>I think he's doing a great job.

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:42.120
<v Speaker 4>If then the projects like that's going to be things

0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:45.680
<v Speaker 4>saying to the bats and he's to be frond down

0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:49.920
<v Speaker 4>together in stas describe.

0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:56.720
<v Speaker 2>Uh sure, I mean, you know they they want to

0:05:56.800 --> 0:05:59.320
<v Speaker 2>they want to be making plays offensive line the same

0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:02.240
<v Speaker 2>way they don't want to anybody penetrating any gaps either.

0:06:02.720 --> 0:06:04.000
<v Speaker 3>So we've got to just do a good job of

0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:05.200
<v Speaker 3>working together in days like this.

0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:10.520
<v Speaker 1>A really important player for the Ravens this year is

0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:14.320
<v Speaker 1>linebacker Trenton Simpson. He is in line for a starting role,

0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 1>and he talked about the expectations going into this year.

0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 9>Just how do you feel with.

0:06:23.279 --> 0:06:25.880
<v Speaker 4>You especially putting on the pads when I kind of

0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:27.320
<v Speaker 4>abolish that stuff.

0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:29.640
<v Speaker 6>I feel like it's been going great.

0:06:29.880 --> 0:06:32.640
<v Speaker 10>I put in a lot of work and just studying,

0:06:32.720 --> 0:06:35.560
<v Speaker 10>spending more time with my coaches, my teammates, asking Roquan

0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:37.800
<v Speaker 10>questions every day. I feel like just being able to

0:06:37.839 --> 0:06:39.280
<v Speaker 10>put the pads on this now is allowed to just

0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.680
<v Speaker 10>be able to play football and play fast, physical football

0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:42.719
<v Speaker 10>that we preachate the Ravens.

0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:44.600
<v Speaker 6>What do you think you've grown the most?

0:06:44.640 --> 0:06:45.920
<v Speaker 11>I mean, you just said all the work that you

0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:47.400
<v Speaker 11>put in, where do you think you've grown the most?

0:06:47.400 --> 0:06:47.760
<v Speaker 1>As firsts?

0:06:47.760 --> 0:06:50.000
<v Speaker 4>Where you are now compared to even the end of

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:50.640
<v Speaker 4>last season.

0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:52.840
<v Speaker 10>I'd said I've grown the most by just knowing what

0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:56.280
<v Speaker 10>to expect, just being in our system for a year now,

0:06:56.640 --> 0:07:00.640
<v Speaker 10>knowing what to expect, communicating better with this defense. Everybody's

0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:02.960
<v Speaker 10>on the same page. We're very vocal and everybody's talking

0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:04.479
<v Speaker 10>every place. So I mean, I think that's the sign

0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:09.720
<v Speaker 10>of a great defense. So definitely communication wise, exactly.

0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 6>That's a good work.

0:07:11.320 --> 0:07:12.480
<v Speaker 4>Performing the Ravens line up.

0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:15.280
<v Speaker 10>It's been great man just being able to be him,

0:07:15.320 --> 0:07:17.240
<v Speaker 10>being my linebacker, coach my rookie year to seeing him

0:07:17.280 --> 0:07:18.640
<v Speaker 10>grow and be the defense corder than me.

0:07:18.840 --> 0:07:19.880
<v Speaker 6>Just growing up under him.

0:07:19.880 --> 0:07:22.560
<v Speaker 10>It's been awesome being able to communicate with him as

0:07:22.560 --> 0:07:24.040
<v Speaker 10>a player and he's just off the field, you know.

0:07:24.120 --> 0:07:24.760
<v Speaker 6>So it's been great.

0:07:24.920 --> 0:07:26.880
<v Speaker 4>Should we Should you get physical out there? You know

0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:28.080
<v Speaker 4>at times? Sack you?

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Is that just kind of how you how you play

0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:32.600
<v Speaker 1>the game, and then said, trying to set the town

0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:33.400
<v Speaker 1>talk to me about that.

0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:36.360
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, just playing fast, physical man, just playing relentless, playing

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:37.360
<v Speaker 10>like a raven is my goal.

0:07:37.880 --> 0:07:38.200
<v Speaker 6>Definitely.

0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:40.200
<v Speaker 10>I feel like offensive and defense have been very physical.

0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.400
<v Speaker 10>We're just trying to protect each other. But me just

0:07:42.520 --> 0:07:44.440
<v Speaker 10>going out there, sending the messages, playing as hard as

0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:46.600
<v Speaker 10>I can, you know, and matching ro CON's energy every day.

0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:47.080
<v Speaker 6>You know.

0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:50.200
<v Speaker 3>So there was play a couple of days ago.

0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:58.040
<v Speaker 6>June dere Kelly, who's the guy.

0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:02.760
<v Speaker 10>I have to go back and look at it. But yeah,

0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:04.040
<v Speaker 10>we're just trying to take care of everybody. But I

0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:05.560
<v Speaker 10>don't think it was closed line, but yeah, just trying

0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:09.520
<v Speaker 10>to take care of him. I was close to it,

0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:11.600
<v Speaker 10>but yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:12.840
<v Speaker 3>I think you went on.

0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:14.640
<v Speaker 6>You spent some time in the office. He's not a

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.680
<v Speaker 6>vacation game and with Rofon Smith, right, how much time

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:20.800
<v Speaker 6>do you spend talking about football during those trips?

0:08:21.120 --> 0:08:22.880
<v Speaker 10>I feel like, I mean it's a good good balance

0:08:23.280 --> 0:08:24.960
<v Speaker 10>us knowing each other's friends on and off the field.

0:08:24.960 --> 0:08:27.240
<v Speaker 10>But also when we together were talking ball and me

0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:29.160
<v Speaker 10>being a younger player, I'm asking him questions and like,

0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:30.640
<v Speaker 10>you know what I mean, when I'm with him, it's

0:08:30.680 --> 0:08:32.240
<v Speaker 10>a great person to learn from, So just get some

0:08:32.360 --> 0:08:34.319
<v Speaker 10>advice every time I get around him. I mean, he's

0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.240
<v Speaker 10>a great teammate, great leader, and I'm always trying to

0:08:36.280 --> 0:08:37.520
<v Speaker 10>learn from any aspect of life.

0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:39.120
<v Speaker 6>So yeah, those lines.

0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:41.040
<v Speaker 4>You know, he talks about the flipping switch.

0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:42.760
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's like one of nice guys off the field,

0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:45.000
<v Speaker 1>but you know a different story. What's you know between

0:08:45.000 --> 0:08:47.360
<v Speaker 1>the lines is do you play that same way? And

0:08:47.440 --> 0:08:49.199
<v Speaker 1>how you feel if you don't that energy?

0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:50.080
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, now that's real man.

0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 10>When you get in between those lines, you gotta be

0:08:51.800 --> 0:08:54.679
<v Speaker 10>locked in focusing on you know, just serious. I mean,

0:08:54.679 --> 0:08:56.120
<v Speaker 10>it's a goal. You gotta go out there and perform.

0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:58.199
<v Speaker 10>So I mean it's no time to have, you know,

0:08:58.240 --> 0:08:59.040
<v Speaker 10>play around on the field.

0:08:59.040 --> 0:08:59.760
<v Speaker 6>You got to be focused.

0:08:59.800 --> 0:09:02.040
<v Speaker 10>And when I'm off the field, you know, great guy

0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:04.320
<v Speaker 10>smiling all the time. When it's getting between those lines,

0:09:04.320 --> 0:09:05.040
<v Speaker 10>it's time to play ball.

0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:09.040
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, it's just for you watch that relationship ortant.

0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 6>Is it beneficial to have that postal relationship with the guy.

0:09:11.720 --> 0:09:12.599
<v Speaker 4>That you're getting next to me?

0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:13.720
<v Speaker 6>Yeah? Man, that's great.

0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:15.599
<v Speaker 10>I mean I mean, once you can trust somebody you

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:17.360
<v Speaker 10>know on the field off the field, I mean, it

0:09:17.520 --> 0:09:19.960
<v Speaker 10>just grows that bond and just having somebody out there

0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:22.800
<v Speaker 10>that you can talk to mid play asking questions. It's

0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:24.679
<v Speaker 10>been awesome for me and great person to learn from

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:25.040
<v Speaker 10>for sure.

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:28.400
<v Speaker 12>With his defensive teammate and his slogger neighbors last year

0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:29.760
<v Speaker 12>said you guys stop talking.

0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:31.319
<v Speaker 5>I guess have you gotten used to it? Do you

0:09:31.440 --> 0:09:31.839
<v Speaker 5>listen to it?

0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:34.040
<v Speaker 6>I mean, I've got used to it.

0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:35.679
<v Speaker 10>But I mean it's always good stuff, you know, So

0:09:36.080 --> 0:09:38.760
<v Speaker 10>just learning and just bringing positive energy every time I'm

0:09:38.760 --> 0:09:39.200
<v Speaker 10>around him.

0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:41.560
<v Speaker 6>So yeah, well he's.

0:09:41.440 --> 0:09:43.520
<v Speaker 9>Huge, but here he evolved and being a guy who's

0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:45.679
<v Speaker 9>played a lot to being a guy who never came

0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:48.839
<v Speaker 9>off the field though. How huge is that something that

0:09:49.400 --> 0:09:51.920
<v Speaker 9>you know you're respiring to be? How much do you

0:09:52.000 --> 0:09:53.959
<v Speaker 9>think about that? How much that god be a guy?

0:09:54.040 --> 0:09:56.160
<v Speaker 9>And hey, third day and secondary or it doesn't matter.

0:09:56.440 --> 0:09:58.200
<v Speaker 6>I'm a glowing up field man, that's the goal.

0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:00.400
<v Speaker 10>But you know, coming and attacking every day, and that

0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:02.560
<v Speaker 10>comes with earning the trust of my teammates, my coaches,

0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:04.400
<v Speaker 10>and everybody around me. So I mean the mare I

0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:07.079
<v Speaker 10>go out there every day performing practice and uphold to

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:08.719
<v Speaker 10>the standard that would be the more playing time I

0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:10.800
<v Speaker 10>earn and with my coaches to believe that I should

0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:11.280
<v Speaker 10>get out there.

0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:14.520
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, watching.

0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:18.559
<v Speaker 10>A lot because he you know, he played at a

0:10:18.679 --> 0:10:21.480
<v Speaker 10>very high level, and just to see him and learn

0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:22.959
<v Speaker 10>from him my rookie year, I mean, I mean, he

0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:24.640
<v Speaker 10>had a great year. You know, the way he prayed,

0:10:24.640 --> 0:10:26.800
<v Speaker 10>he got what he deserved and I learned a lot

0:10:26.880 --> 0:10:28.520
<v Speaker 10>from him. So just watching how he moved his pre

0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:30.160
<v Speaker 10>snap alignments and things like that. I did a lot

0:10:30.200 --> 0:10:31.199
<v Speaker 10>of studying of him this year.

0:10:31.440 --> 0:10:34.679
<v Speaker 7>But what do you coach enjoy about the position and

0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:36.520
<v Speaker 7>more specific for your involved.

0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:40.720
<v Speaker 10>I say, just being able to play fast, physical football,

0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:43.120
<v Speaker 10>and I just alignment to just be able to you know,

0:10:43.440 --> 0:10:46.240
<v Speaker 10>read and react like I see something trigger don second guest,

0:10:46.320 --> 0:10:48.960
<v Speaker 10>just play fast and you know, just playing one hundred

0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:50.319
<v Speaker 10>percent of cover up a lot of things. So you know,

0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:51.719
<v Speaker 10>I'm just excited for this year to be able to

0:10:51.880 --> 0:10:59.599
<v Speaker 10>just do me, that's been awesome, man. Just you know,

0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:02.079
<v Speaker 10>it's been that Clemson growing together, winning some games together.

0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:04.840
<v Speaker 10>Being on the ACC championship team with him was awesome.

0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:07.160
<v Speaker 10>But uh, just seeing him come in every day compete,

0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:09.520
<v Speaker 10>and I mean he's young, just like I was last year.

0:11:09.520 --> 0:11:11.679
<v Speaker 10>So him asking Marlowe questions be Steve Quay, I mean

0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:13.719
<v Speaker 10>it's awesome because I mean the events we have and

0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:16.920
<v Speaker 10>is this organization is talking taking all the younger guys

0:11:16.960 --> 0:11:18.880
<v Speaker 10>under and I like feel like that's good to help

0:11:18.920 --> 0:11:20.080
<v Speaker 10>improve a lot of guys career.

0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:22.120
<v Speaker 6>How do you deal with these sticks?

0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:25.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean there's you know when you coaches off well

0:11:25.840 --> 0:11:27.920
<v Speaker 3>Trent Prince, he's still probably gonna make some of the sticks.

0:11:27.960 --> 0:11:30.160
<v Speaker 3>That sure, how but what do you try to get

0:11:30.240 --> 0:11:30.559
<v Speaker 3>out of it?

0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:33.040
<v Speaker 10>I mean during the game, you gotta move on next

0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:34.760
<v Speaker 10>play and you get to it the next week, you

0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:36.360
<v Speaker 10>know when you study in the film. But you gotta

0:11:36.360 --> 0:11:38.320
<v Speaker 10>have a short mindset in this game, I mean mentality,

0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:40.200
<v Speaker 10>you gotta put it behind you next play and then

0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:41.480
<v Speaker 10>in film just corrected.

0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:41.319
<v Speaker 8>You know.

0:11:41.440 --> 0:11:47.640
<v Speaker 6>So yeah, you know, but that's how many questions you ask.

0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:49.360
<v Speaker 9>Said?

0:11:50.480 --> 0:11:51.840
<v Speaker 6>Man? I mean.

0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:54.920
<v Speaker 10>Probably like you know, from the time we walk in

0:11:54.960 --> 0:11:57.160
<v Speaker 10>the weight room to I mean, it's not all about ball,

0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:59.800
<v Speaker 10>but just trying to pick up you know, dietician habits,

0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:01.319
<v Speaker 10>how you take care of your body, you know, just

0:12:01.360 --> 0:12:03.120
<v Speaker 10>things just trying to learn, you know, from a great vet.

0:12:03.240 --> 0:12:05.880
<v Speaker 6>So yeah, a couple of questions, Yeah, a lot.

0:12:05.880 --> 0:12:09.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Henery obviously, who who is your other favorite guys

0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:11.720
<v Speaker 2>talk to, whether it's ball.

0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:17.160
<v Speaker 6>Or whatever, just on the team in general. H Tavious, Robinson, Tavias.

0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:21.040
<v Speaker 10>I talked to the league, Malik Harrison all the time,

0:12:21.800 --> 0:12:24.040
<v Speaker 10>Chris Board, Josh Ross, all the guys in my room.

0:12:24.040 --> 0:12:25.480
<v Speaker 10>I mean, I feel like we have a great relationship.

0:12:25.520 --> 0:12:28.200
<v Speaker 10>We're working out, we go grab dinner and stuff together.

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:30.400
<v Speaker 10>So I feel like, I mean, like just talking about

0:12:30.400 --> 0:12:31.960
<v Speaker 10>that trust in that bond you have off the field

0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:33.200
<v Speaker 10>makes it a lot special on the field.

0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:35.760
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, you haven't had attacked.

0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:39.200
<v Speaker 6>Like going up against I mean, it's been awesome.

0:12:39.240 --> 0:12:41.079
<v Speaker 10>I mean growing up watching him at a young age

0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:42.679
<v Speaker 10>to being on the practice field with him now, it's

0:12:42.679 --> 0:12:45.000
<v Speaker 10>been awesome and it's full circle. But I mean it's

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:47.120
<v Speaker 10>been co just bringing my energy every day and just

0:12:47.120 --> 0:12:49.280
<v Speaker 10>imagining that I mean, I know he's gonna make me better,

0:12:49.400 --> 0:12:51.040
<v Speaker 10>and I hope I'm making him better as well, and

0:12:51.080 --> 0:12:51.679
<v Speaker 10>it's been awesome.

0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Another important player on this defense is Arthur Molett. He

<v Speaker 1>re signed with the Ravens this offseason after one year

0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:02.480
<v Speaker 1>in Baltimore, and he really felt like this was a

0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:04.880
<v Speaker 1>place where he could flourish as a player, and he

0:13:05.000 --> 0:13:06.000
<v Speaker 1>talked about that today.

0:13:09.200 --> 0:13:11.120
<v Speaker 6>What has this year have been like for you?

0:13:11.320 --> 0:13:13.240
<v Speaker 11>Last year you came in right before trading camp, he

0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:15.920
<v Speaker 11>had an unfortunate injury early and here to have a

0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:19.720
<v Speaker 11>full spring and now to be established with this team.

0:13:19.800 --> 0:13:21.320
<v Speaker 3>You know, how's that going for you now?

0:13:21.400 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 6>With your chill? I think it's going well for me.

0:13:23.800 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 6>Just trying to prove myself every day, you know, make

0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:28.520
<v Speaker 6>sure the team knows that they didn't waste their investment

0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:30.600
<v Speaker 6>on me. Just want to grind out with the guys,

0:13:30.679 --> 0:13:33.959

0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:38.960
<v Speaker 6>just pushing myself every day to get better.

0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:41.640
<v Speaker 3>John just said he always thought you would be bad,

0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:43.000
<v Speaker 3>that he thought it was too good a fit.

0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:46.719
<v Speaker 6>Pre for did you the same thing. I didn't want

0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:48.520
<v Speaker 6>to go anywhere. I love it here. This is like

0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:51.319
<v Speaker 6>a second home to me. You know I want in

0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:52.959
<v Speaker 6>my career here man. So you know, I just want

0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:55.000
<v Speaker 6>to prove every day that I'm worth you know, their investment,

0:13:55.080 --> 0:13:56.959
<v Speaker 6>like I said, and you know, keep grinding away and

0:13:56.960 --> 0:13:57.760
<v Speaker 6>getting better every day.

0:13:58.280 --> 0:14:00.640
<v Speaker 1>What do you think is allowed you to making plays

0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:02.600
<v Speaker 1>a lot during these training camp practices?

0:14:02.720 --> 0:14:04.200
<v Speaker 4>What is it that it's allowing me to play at

0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:04.880
<v Speaker 4>the high level?

0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:07.880
<v Speaker 6>Here? We can my off season work. I worked out

0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:11.120
<v Speaker 6>every day. I didn't take too much time off, just

0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:13.480
<v Speaker 6>broke down the film and saw all my weaknesses and

0:14:13.600 --> 0:14:16.160
<v Speaker 6>attacked them and you know, just got in the lab. Man,

0:14:16.280 --> 0:14:19.280
<v Speaker 6>just was be just was truthfully honest with myself. I

0:14:19.400 --> 0:14:21.960
<v Speaker 6>wanted to be you know, a bigger piece this year,

0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:24.920
<v Speaker 6>you know, help this team win. Man. And I think

0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:26.240
<v Speaker 6>we'll have one time and goal and we know what

0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:31.080
<v Speaker 6>it is. So yeah, so you have really good share. No,

0:14:31.280 --> 0:14:32.120
<v Speaker 6>I think they're personal.

0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:32.880
<v Speaker 8>You know.

0:14:32.960 --> 0:14:34.640
<v Speaker 6>If I do it, I do it. If not, then

0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:35.760
<v Speaker 6>I just have more work to do.

0:14:35.960 --> 0:14:36.040
<v Speaker 9>Uh.

0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:38.280
<v Speaker 6>Just one of those things where you know, uh if

0:14:38.320 --> 0:14:40.680
<v Speaker 6>I don't push myself to a higher standard than no

0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:45.520
<v Speaker 6>one else. Will you mention in your life your experience?

0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 6>What about it?

0:14:46.640 --> 0:14:47.560
<v Speaker 7>Did you love information?

0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:50.080
<v Speaker 3>How do you see yourself having bigger.

0:14:52.800 --> 0:14:54.720
<v Speaker 6>I just you know, obviously, uh, I do a lot

0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:57.800
<v Speaker 6>of work in the community. 's it's it's like similar

0:14:57.800 --> 0:15:00.640
<v Speaker 6>to where I'm from in New Orleans, Louisiana, Baltimore. Football

0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:02.880
<v Speaker 6>is everything here. We have a good season, the city

0:15:03.080 --> 0:15:06.920
<v Speaker 6>thrives and have some pretty good uh less crime all

0:15:06.960 --> 0:15:09.440
<v Speaker 6>that stuff, you know. Uh And just for me, man,

0:15:10.680 --> 0:15:12.560

0:15:12.600 --> 0:15:14.640

<v Speaker 4>Team and there's a lot of guys who play of

0:15:18.920 --> 0:15:21.600
<v Speaker 4>riding the roles. I don't played a lot and slash.

0:15:22.560 --> 0:15:25.200
<v Speaker 7>It's a long time as a as a different corner

0:15:25.200 --> 0:15:25.680
<v Speaker 7>of yourself.

0:15:26.240 --> 0:15:28.440
<v Speaker 6>Is it also like, hey, I'm hitting with my teammates

0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:32.000

0:15:32.040 --> 0:15:33.840
<v Speaker 6>there are really good guys, all pro guys, you know,

0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:36.800
<v Speaker 6>top one hundred guys, and I'm glad they're pushing me.

0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:38.840
<v Speaker 6>You know, it brings my game to another level. So

0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:41.440
<v Speaker 6>you know, it's not gonna be easy. So we're gonna

0:15:41.440 --> 0:15:43.800
<v Speaker 6>compete every day and we're gonna talk junk to each other,

0:15:43.920 --> 0:15:45.960
<v Speaker 6>and you know, it's fun, man, It's fun to have

0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:47.640
<v Speaker 6>you know, other guys that play at a high level

0:15:47.680 --> 0:15:49.320
<v Speaker 6>to push you and you know, make you better.

0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:51.960
<v Speaker 4>I love business.

0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:55.640
<v Speaker 7>To a ton of carry over, but or what are

0:15:55.640 --> 0:15:58.640
<v Speaker 7>maybe some of the nuances and differences play to s?

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:00.880
<v Speaker 6>I mean, honestly, he played the game. You know he

0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 6>knows what we're going through. You know we're gonna do

0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:04.840
<v Speaker 6>dog days in camp. You know he's pushing us to

0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:07.280
<v Speaker 6>a high standard. You know he played the game. He's

0:16:07.320 --> 0:16:09.520
<v Speaker 6>familiar with it. He knows what you know it's going

0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:11.800
<v Speaker 6>through our minds. So you know, it's just there's no

0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:13.720
<v Speaker 6>really no drop off. Man, just know, I just know

0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:16.160
<v Speaker 6>he's pushing us hard. For a few people in this

0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:18.920
<v Speaker 6>team have as much special teams experience as you do.

0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:21.880
<v Speaker 6>We talked a lot about the tough coaches about the

0:16:22.000 --> 0:16:24.520
<v Speaker 6>new kickoff for a f How different is it for

0:16:24.600 --> 0:16:26.840
<v Speaker 6>a player like you that's kind of you covered a

0:16:26.880 --> 0:16:30.160
<v Speaker 6>lot of kicks in your career and you I don't

0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:32.440
<v Speaker 6>want to say confusion, but how interested are you and

0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:34.880
<v Speaker 6>how it's gonna play out? I think it's gonna play

0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:37.160
<v Speaker 6>out really good for a guy like me. You know,

0:16:37.240 --> 0:16:39.040
<v Speaker 6>we get to use our speed. We're only like five

0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:41.800
<v Speaker 6>yards apart from guy and so for me I think

0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:44.160
<v Speaker 6>it's I'm gonna thrive in it. I like it. I

0:16:44.200 --> 0:16:45.520
<v Speaker 6>think I'm gonna make a lot of plays in it.

0:16:46.640 --> 0:16:49.400
<v Speaker 6>I think it's gonna go good. Honestly, definitely. What do

0:16:49.440 --> 0:16:51.440
<v Speaker 6>you like about Wiggans so hard for What's up? What

0:16:51.480 --> 0:16:54.080
<v Speaker 6>do you like about Wiggans? So many Wiggins? He's really fast.

0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:58.880
<v Speaker 6>Everybody's like that, right, really fast, open airs, ready to learn,

0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:02.400
<v Speaker 6>cool with taking criticism and learning. Like that's the biggest

0:17:02.440 --> 0:17:04.000
<v Speaker 6>thing with rookies that you don't see a lot of.

0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:06.720
<v Speaker 6>You know, he's open with, you know, taking criticism and learning,

0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:09.280
<v Speaker 6>and he asks questions and he's in a film study

0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:11.040
<v Speaker 6>and you know, he works on his techniques and not

0:17:11.080 --> 0:17:13.360
<v Speaker 6>all of its relying on his speed. So I really

0:17:13.440 --> 0:17:14.600
<v Speaker 6>liked that about him. You know, he's going to be

0:17:14.640 --> 0:17:15.879
<v Speaker 6>a really good player for the future.

0:17:16.000 --> 0:17:19.040
<v Speaker 4>And yeah, well Lamar got back on the field this week.

0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:21.080
<v Speaker 4>How does that that change things? When you guys think

0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:22.320
<v Speaker 4>that's going against an offense?

0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:24.960
<v Speaker 6>You know, he extends plays so much, man, you know,

0:17:25.040 --> 0:17:27.720
<v Speaker 6>it makes us, uh, it makes us really better, you know,

0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:29.960
<v Speaker 6>because there's so many broken plays and that's one of

0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:32.840
<v Speaker 6>his special talents that he's had of many right, the

0:17:32.920 --> 0:17:36.280
<v Speaker 6>broken play aspect of everything. It's big on defense. If

0:17:36.280 --> 0:17:38.479
<v Speaker 6>you don't plaster and you don't cover your guide, then

0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:41.000
<v Speaker 6>you know it could be a touchdown there any given second.

0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:42.440
<v Speaker 6>So you know, it just helps us out with a

0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:46.439
<v Speaker 6>communication and play with one another with a SIPs and.

0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:50.959
<v Speaker 5>Setting off his whatever you see him so far, especially

0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:51.760
<v Speaker 5>here in a.

0:17:52.000 --> 0:17:54.320
<v Speaker 6>Sun, I've seen a lot of growth, good communication. He

0:17:54.440 --> 0:17:56.359
<v Speaker 6>knows where his help is. You know, he plays to

0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:58.639
<v Speaker 6>his leverage. He's doing a lot of He's doing a

0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:01.240
<v Speaker 6>good job on those tight ends and passing, and he's

0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:02.920
<v Speaker 6>not scared to stick his nose in in the run game.

0:18:02.960 --> 0:18:04.040
<v Speaker 6>So I think he will be fine.

0:18:04.920 --> 0:18:07.320
<v Speaker 5>And I guess it's someone who switched from one team

0:18:07.359 --> 0:18:07.760
<v Speaker 5>to the other.

0:18:08.440 --> 0:18:13.440
<v Speaker 6>PQ. We know the food's not better, bro, we know

0:18:13.520 --> 0:18:17.359
<v Speaker 6>the city's not better. Bro. Come on, come on, man,

0:18:19.119 --> 0:18:22.000
<v Speaker 6>you a lot of those first strength events plays. You're

0:18:22.119 --> 0:18:25.200
<v Speaker 6>now far from Trent Simpson. I'm excited.

0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:28.719
<v Speaker 5>I guess Sark size, what if you've seen from from him?

0:18:28.800 --> 0:18:28.960
<v Speaker 8>Man?

0:18:29.359 --> 0:18:34.480
<v Speaker 6>You know, helping the fresh tap being trends kind of sense.

0:18:36.119 --> 0:18:37.520
<v Speaker 6>I mean, you know, like like I said, man, he

0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:39.200
<v Speaker 6>knows he's the next guy up right, So is he

0:18:39.240 --> 0:18:40.840
<v Speaker 6>got a fill in big shoes, Peq was a really

0:18:40.880 --> 0:18:42.639
<v Speaker 6>good player for us, right So at the end of

0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:44.280
<v Speaker 6>the day, man, you know, for him, you know, it's

0:18:44.440 --> 0:18:46.760
<v Speaker 6>just like I said, learning the scheme, knowing where his

0:18:46.880 --> 0:18:50.320
<v Speaker 6>help is, being technique sound, knowing where his assignment is,

0:18:50.359 --> 0:18:51.800
<v Speaker 6>and he's doing a really good job of it. And

0:18:52.080 --> 0:18:53.359
<v Speaker 6>and like I said, I think he's going to be

0:18:53.400 --> 0:18:54.879
<v Speaker 6>a really good asset for us this year.

0:18:58.520 --> 0:19:00.359
<v Speaker 1>Someone else who had a great year last year is

0:19:00.400 --> 0:19:03.920
<v Speaker 1>Brandon Stevens. He established himself as a starting caliber corner

0:19:04.320 --> 0:19:07.560
<v Speaker 1>at a really top notch player last year in his

0:19:07.680 --> 0:19:10.159
<v Speaker 1>first season as a starter, and he thinks that he

0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:12.560
<v Speaker 1>could take his game to an even greater level this year.

0:19:16.040 --> 0:19:18.240
<v Speaker 11>Brandon, what it is has it been like for you

0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:20.880
<v Speaker 11>this year compared to previous years when you're cross training

0:19:20.880 --> 0:19:23.240
<v Speaker 11>as so many different positions. Has it allowed you to

0:19:23.400 --> 0:19:25.840
<v Speaker 11>kind of hone in on maybe the finer details that

0:19:25.880 --> 0:19:27.360
<v Speaker 11>maybe we're a little more challenging.

0:19:27.080 --> 0:19:27.760
<v Speaker 6>To do in the past.

0:19:28.400 --> 0:19:31.080
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, I mean I'm locked in that corner, you know,

0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:33.440
<v Speaker 8>approaching it the same way, you know, still trying to

0:19:33.760 --> 0:19:35.760
<v Speaker 8>you know, become a better version of myself. But yeah,

0:19:35.760 --> 0:19:37.960
<v Speaker 8>I'm locked in on corner. And uh, you know that's

0:19:38.040 --> 0:19:39.760
<v Speaker 8>that's really just my my only job right now.

<v Speaker 1>established yourself as a certain corner of the league, what.

0:20:29.720 --> 0:20:31.680
<v Speaker 6>Is what is next for the year to get to

0:20:32.080 --> 0:20:32.560
<v Speaker 6>do this year?

0:20:33.280 --> 0:20:35.880
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, just like I said, just become a better version

0:20:35.920 --> 0:20:39.119
<v Speaker 8>of myself. You know, last year was last year. Uh

0:20:39.240 --> 0:20:41.120
<v Speaker 8>so you know my focus this year is just taking

0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:43.520
<v Speaker 8>it up a notch, you know. Uh, you know, making

0:20:43.560 --> 0:20:45.720
<v Speaker 8>a place that you know that I left out on

0:20:45.800 --> 0:20:49.840
<v Speaker 8>the field last year, you know, and just becoming you know,

0:20:49.960 --> 0:20:52.440
<v Speaker 8>one of the best dv's corners in the league.

0:20:54.960 --> 0:21:03.159
<v Speaker 4>Talent everyone got to have a sense, I don't know,

0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:05.200
<v Speaker 4>definitely talented.

0:21:08.040 --> 0:21:10.359
<v Speaker 8>We we we definitely had that, you know, like you said,

0:21:11.600 --> 0:21:13.080
<v Speaker 8>you know, but you know, just because you have that

0:21:13.200 --> 0:21:15.040
<v Speaker 8>doesn't mean that that's gonna get the job done, you know.

0:21:15.160 --> 0:21:17.120
<v Speaker 8>So we we know that we still have to go out,

0:21:17.720 --> 0:21:19.920
<v Speaker 8>you know, attack each day, uh, you know, and take

0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:22.280
<v Speaker 8>what's ours and you know, with the skies the limit

0:21:22.359 --> 0:21:24.280
<v Speaker 8>for us and we know that, but we just got

0:21:24.400 --> 0:21:26.680
<v Speaker 8>to continue to work and work as a unit.

0:21:28.520 --> 0:21:29.160
<v Speaker 3>So much death.

0:21:29.800 --> 0:21:35.560
<v Speaker 4>How do you sort of see that manifestingmatic.

0:21:35.520 --> 0:21:37.200
<v Speaker 7>Sings, you know going into.

0:21:37.040 --> 0:21:38.840
<v Speaker 4>This season for the playss like how you you.

0:21:43.760 --> 0:21:45.639
<v Speaker 8>Man that that might be a z O question, but

0:21:45.840 --> 0:21:48.280
<v Speaker 8>uh but yeah, I mean, we we have guys that

0:21:48.320 --> 0:21:51.760
<v Speaker 8>can play, you know, all sorts of positions, you know,

0:21:51.840 --> 0:21:54.080
<v Speaker 8>from the top down, to be honest, and uh, you know,

0:21:54.119 --> 0:21:56.119
<v Speaker 8>if you put guys in different positions, you never know,

0:21:56.800 --> 0:21:58.760
<v Speaker 8>uh you know what, you know, the offense can never

0:21:58.840 --> 0:22:00.920
<v Speaker 8>know what's being thrown at them. So being able to

0:22:01.000 --> 0:22:03.720
<v Speaker 8>have guys that can you know, play multiple positions, you know,

0:22:03.800 --> 0:22:06.520
<v Speaker 8>it definitely is uh in our favor in.

0:22:06.560 --> 0:22:09.159
<v Speaker 11>Last year year want to play targeted quarterbacks, you know,

0:22:09.880 --> 0:22:12.520
<v Speaker 11>aster the great season you had last year, you expect

0:22:12.600 --> 0:22:15.080
<v Speaker 11>that to be the case of getting scared or even care.

0:22:16.400 --> 0:22:19.879
<v Speaker 8>Uh man, I honestly, I really don't care. Uh just

0:22:20.200 --> 0:22:23.600
<v Speaker 8>you know, honestly, my mindset every play is the ball's

0:22:23.640 --> 0:22:26.359
<v Speaker 8>coming to me, even if it's you know, fourth and inches,

0:22:26.400 --> 0:22:27.600
<v Speaker 8>I feel like the ball's gonna come to me.

0:22:28.080 --> 0:22:28.199
<v Speaker 6>Uh.

0:22:28.440 --> 0:22:30.560

0:22:37.320 --> 0:22:42.960
<v Speaker 8>Yourself absolutely, man. Uh you know last year was just

0:22:43.080 --> 0:22:44.359

0:22:44.400 --> 0:22:45.520
<v Speaker 8>got my feet wet last year.

0:22:45.800 --> 0:22:45.919
<v Speaker 6>Uh.

0:22:46.680 --> 0:22:48.840
<v Speaker 8>And you know I don't even think about it last

0:22:48.880 --> 0:22:50.920
<v Speaker 8>year anymore, to be honest. Uh you know, it's a

0:22:51.040 --> 0:22:52.879
<v Speaker 8>it's a new year. I gotta you know, go out

<v Speaker 8>and improve myself. I'm sure there's you know a lot

0:22:55.960 --> 0:22:59.280
<v Speaker 8>of dots still out there. You know. I'm like I said,

0:23:02.680 --> 0:23:04.240

0:23:16.440 --> 0:23:17.320
<v Speaker 6>just here to do my job.

0:23:17.760 --> 0:23:20.159

0:23:26.520 --> 0:23:28.200
<v Speaker 8>anything about it on my own. All I can do is,

0:23:28.359 --> 0:23:29.879
