00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:36,000
Speaker 1: come on this weekend. Excited to you see this team

32
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 1: get together. Everybody, Yeah, this is this is terrific. You know,

33
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 1: I really I really enjoyed working with our team in

34
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: the spring. They came back in good shape, refreshed and

35
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: um as players and coaches, this is what we do,

36
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: you know, this is this is our our livelihood, it's

37
00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: our passion, it's our hobby. Playing football is what we do.

38
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,840
Speaker 1: And trainee camp is part of getting ready for you know,

39
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 1: the upcoming season. So there's a lot of excitement in

40
00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: the building. Very competitive guys that understand, um, it's very

41
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 1: important to train as a team and get ready to

42
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,279
Speaker 1: play and so, um, looking forward to a very competitive

43
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,920
Speaker 1: practice this afternoon. Is there any difference for you in

44
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: terms of today's, you know, to the first practice as

45
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: opposed to the ones in the spring that well, I think,

46
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 1: uh not not really until we put the pads on, um,

47
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: And really all NFL practices look primarily the same, whether

48
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: you have pads on or not. You know, I think

49
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,839
Speaker 1: it's very rare when you see a training session where

50
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 1: anybody's tackling to the ground or low blocking and doing

51
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 1: some of the things that you have to get in

52
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 1: the preseason games. So, um, again, it's new, it's fresh,

53
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: it's the first time we're doing it, so you have

54
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 1: all that enthusiasm that goes with it. And um, I'm

55
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 1: much like the players, I'm looking forward to having it.

56
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: I just want to clarification. So when you guys go

57
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 1: out there and you start practice today, is the is

58
00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: the plan to have like a full slate as you

59
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 1: go into practice to debts he's trying to get you

60
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: to define a little bit being smart with him or

61
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: that he's going to be out there okay, or does

62
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: that mean that when you're in the practice that you're

63
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 1: going to be taking ongoing feedback from him, So what's

64
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: what's the plan as you go out on the field

65
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: and is that going to adjust while you're on the

66
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 1: field or now we have a plan going out there

67
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 1: what we want to get done. And every player you

68
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: have rookies, you have veterans in between, you have guys

69
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,640
Speaker 1: coming back from injury. Every player has a certain amount

70
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 1: of work they need to get done before they play.

71
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: And so that's where we're at with him as well.

72
00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 1: Pat with the Avery Moss, you got your first look

73
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 1: at him, I think these last three days. What did

74
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:45,720
Speaker 1: you see from him? And I guess is he now

75
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: fully back from Yeah? Well, Avery was one of those

76
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: selected vets that we brought back early because he didn't

77
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 1: get a chance to do much in the spring. And

78
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: he actually looked really good. He looked fast, he looked quick,

79
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: and um, I can see there's an excitement, you know,

80
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: in him that to get out there and get going.

81
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: So I'm looking forward to seeing him at full speed.

82
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 1: Where do things then with R. J. McIntosh, Well, he's

83
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: going through you know, I had a medical issue coming

84
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 1: out and we're trying to get that rectified and so

85
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: we'll just try to get him out there as quickly

86
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: as possible. That big. It's also well, we talked about

87
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 1: all that in the meeting last night, and um, you know,

88
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: we constantly talked about making sure this this game is

89
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:31,119
Speaker 1: about the ball, This game is about negotiating the ground,

90
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 1: This game is about defeating your your matchup, and so

91
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: those are the things that keep coming back to the forefront.

92
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: This game is about competing and finishing, and so that

93
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,800
Speaker 1: really never changes. And when I said globally yesterday, we're

94
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 1: gonna keep the focus on playing football, those are the

95
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,159
Speaker 1: things that we constantly go back to. But today one besides,

96
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 1: you addressed the team list day. Uh, well, we had

97
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 1: the big meeting, so you know, obviously I had many

98
00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 1: things to say. Um, I had Dave to the players.

99
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 1: You know, the players sort of left knowing that Dave

100
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 1: was going through treatment, and Dave's treatment is going you know,

101
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: it's terrific how he's coming back, and so I thought

102
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: it was important that he had a chance to visit

103
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: with the team. And and then there's other things that

104
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: we needed to go through in terms of league issues,

105
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: from player safety and and and so on. Did he

106
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 1: discuss things beyond football, like, did he discussed this situation

107
00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,440
Speaker 1: where was it? Mostly that was really between Dave and

108
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: the team. So where was their reaction to see if Well,

109
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,160
Speaker 1: I think they were I think they were glad to

110
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: see him, excited to see that, you know, he's working

111
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 1: through the treatment and things look good. He said yesterday

112
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 1: that you wanted an opportunity or that you would take

113
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: the opportunity rather when arrived to kind of talk to

114
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: him and thinks he went over there and asked you,

115
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: you know what you thought his mindset would be just

116
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 1: having gone through everything that he went through this aw season,

117
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 1: So did you get that opportunity and what to gather?

118
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 1: I talked to generous and he's doing great. Lorenzo Carter,

119
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 1: you have some depth that outside buying back the Russian passer.

120
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: Do you think he's a guy who can help you

121
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 1: right away? Are there snaps for him on the field, Well,

122
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: we're hopeful. I mean, he's he needs to develop like

123
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 1: all rookies, but you know he's an edge player. Will

124
00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:24,560
Speaker 1: play him in base when we're in five on the line,

125
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 1: will also play him as a pass rusher on the

126
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 1: fore man front and we'll just see how far he

127
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 1: can come. Um very talented young man and like all rookies.

128
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 1: He's got to get in there and battle around and

129
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 1: go through training camp and uh, you know, we're we're

130
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: hopefully he's gonna have a great career. Oh take take

131
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: two more, two more, just from a distance made soldiering

132
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,280
Speaker 1: now that you did with the Moon Spring, How has

133
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 1: that changed at all? Not at all, I think quickly.

134
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: When you get to know Nate, he's all about business.

135
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: He's very thoughtful. It's very competitive. Um, you know, he's

136
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:03,000
Speaker 1: very He's really interested in the full process of football,

137
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:07,800
Speaker 1: from training to playing two, recovery, everything involved with the game.

138
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 1: And that's why that's why he's a true pro. And

139
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 1: so having been around him, we we felt like we

140
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 1: knew that about him, but having been around him now

141
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 1: it's it's been confirmed for us. The same with the

142
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,640
Speaker 1: guy and he's wrapped and ran him and then one

143
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: kind of things. Yeah, I think he needs a number one.

144
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: The last rookie I was around was Dalvin Cook. You know,

145
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: they're obviously different styles of runners, but um, you know,

146
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: Dalvin was a guy that displayed, you know, a lot

147
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: of the things that that s Quan has shown us.

148
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: And so you know, he just needs to go through

149
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: training camp and work through the good days in the

150
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: bad and clear up the mistakes as they show up,

151
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: and just keep competing. And that's and that's really what

152
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 1: we want. I want to see from him. You had

153
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: you had alf Line come in last year, Yeah, and

154
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 1: from Jump made an impact on that line. You view

155
00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:10,240
Speaker 1: Hernandez in that same mold and was this spring did

156
00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: he did? He earned some respect, not just from the

157
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: guys on his side of the ball, but maybe on

158
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: the other side of the ball too. I think the

159
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:20,280
Speaker 1: Pat alf Line comparison is very is very um a

160
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: step yeah that's a good word or not. But Pat

161
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 1: came in and he he and Will were very similar

162
00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 1: in the way they approached the game, very similar in

163
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: the amount of reps they got, very similar how quickly

164
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: they rose into the starting unit and um so hopefully,

165
00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:39,800
Speaker 1: hopefully we'll can have that same path because Pat had

166
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 1: a great year last year
