1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: You go water today? But was that did you play

2
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:04,600
Speaker 1: Wi wire today? We saw you out there, awful lot

3
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,480
Speaker 1: to see. Yeah, I was out there a decent amount.

4
00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:12,680
Speaker 1: Was trying to do the most I could. Yeah, we've

5
00:00:12,760 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 1: preseason done, especially tonight. How do you feel about what

6
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: you put on FUSO? I feel good, you know, I

7
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,119
Speaker 1: kinda just try to put it all out there, just

8
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: leave it up to the Lord and kind of see

9
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 1: what happens from there. You've been through this process before

10
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 1: with cuts and and cut coming back. What's that like

11
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: emotionally for I feel like early on it was tough.

12
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 1: I feel like I kind of, you know, let it

13
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: wear on me, almost kind of hurt my confidence. It's

14
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:39,919
Speaker 1: just kind of as the years go, I just kind

15
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: of trusted in the process and my faith and just knowing, like,

16
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,480
Speaker 1: you know, leave it all out there and whatever happens

17
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: to happen. You know, there's always a a reason, a plan,

18
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 1: and you kind of never know what that is until

19
00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 1: it comes, so just trying to trust that. What was

20
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,960
Speaker 1: it like being able to eat today, I mean, I'm

21
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: still sweating. It was kind of good getting back out there.

22
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: It's kind of fun, you know. I feel like it

23
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: almost you don't have to get as loose. You kind

24
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 1: of just show up and you're loose. But I was

25
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 1: definitely hydrating for two days straight trying to get ready,

26
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,840
Speaker 1: and I probably lost all that weight. So but you know,

27
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: it plays and do it. Uh, but at the same time,

28
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: just trying not to think about it and just play

29
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: as hard as you can. You actually play excellent games

30
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 1: and the do you feel like going into this game

31
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: that you have to make a statement? Uh? Yeah, I

32
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: feel like almost kind of just someone in my position

33
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: almost every game, you know, I gotta try to do

34
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 1: the best I can and make a statement. You know,

35
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: sometimes I feel like you almost come out of a

36
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: game and feel like you didn't really do as much

37
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 1: as you think you could have. So tonight I just

38
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: kind of wanted to do the best I can and

39
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: just kind of leave it up to there. Cold see

40
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 1: you play a lot on special teams over the years.

41
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,039
Speaker 1: Just how important was it to make an impression on

42
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: defense playing? Uh? You know, it's always nice, you know,

43
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 1: showing that you can still play, you know, your main position.

44
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: You know, I feel like I'll always have a role

45
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: in the kicking game, which is big. You know, we

46
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: prioritize that here, and you know, that's huge being to

47
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: make plays in the kicking game. But at the same time,

48
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 1: you know, I love playing linebackers, so it was kind

49
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: of fun, you know, being out there and being able

50
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 1: to play that many snaps. Yeah, just play defense with

51
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: the guys. It was kind of weird, h I. It

52
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: happened so fast but so slow at the same time.

53
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: I kind of thought, maybe he'll tip it because it

54
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: was kind of thrown behind him, and it did, and

55
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,679
Speaker 1: I was just kind of right there. I haven't seen

56
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 1: it on film or seen what it looked like yet,

57
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: but that's a crazy comparison. I don't the weight of

58
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: the game and the type of catch. I I don't know.

59
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: I don't know who compared that. But yeah, absolutely love interceptions,

60
00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:49,359
Speaker 1: love turnovers. It was nice getting off the field and

61
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 1: especially when the heat gets some water. But yeah, making

62
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:59,800
Speaker 1: plays like that, it's always always feels great. Gosh. I mean,

63
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 1: I I love it here. I love the way we work,

64
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 1: get after it. Awesome leaders here. You know, I just

65
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 1: want to find a role play the best I can,

66
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: whatever role that may be, and just I love playing football,

67
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 1: so just kind of I mean, wherever the it falls,

68
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 1: it falls, but I would love to be here playing.

69
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, I appreciate you, guys,
