1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,120
Speaker 1: You talk a little bit yesterday about your journey. It

2
00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: looks like to be particularly here.

3
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 2: To be a ka trip. It's a blessing. Like I said,

4
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 2: it's a surreal feeling knowing I had a uncle that

5
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 2: played here in this same locker room, wore these same uniforms,

6
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 2: won super Bowls here, and you know, had a lot

7
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 2: of big accolades. So it's a surreal feeling to be

8
00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:19,000
Speaker 2: in the same locker room and be able to try

9
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 2: to win some big time games here as well. So

10
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 2: you had to your previous stops before you got here, though,

11
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,400
Speaker 2: cause I feel like you like the to be for sure.

12
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 2: I'm a firm believer in Christ, walking with him every day.

13
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 2: I just feel like, uh he he always has a

14
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,480
Speaker 2: plan that's greater than the one you could ever think

15
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:36,080
Speaker 2: for yourself. So, like I said, the surreal feeling i'm here,

16
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 2: I would never thought that I'll be a Patriot right now.

17
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 2: So I'm blessed and I'm ready to work and out

18
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:42,880
Speaker 2: for the folks to go up with what your connection.

19
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 2: Uh William McGinnis, my uncle, just family friend, grew up

20
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 2: with since uh I was a kid, and always looked

21
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:50,919
Speaker 2: out for me and taught me to ropes on how

22
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 2: to you know, be a pro at a young age

23
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: and what was his reactional game? Though he was excited,

24
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 2: very happy, you know, happy for me to get the

25
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 2: opportunity to come up here and when in the Patriot way,

26
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 2: because it's gonna be a it's gonna be a u

27
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 2: a big thing for my career in the future.

28
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: What has he taught you like about the Patriot lige?

29
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 2: Just to show up to work every day, humble, show

30
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 2: up with hard work, and be tough and just be resilient.

31
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: You know, how difficult is it to, you know, join

32
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: a new team in the middle of the season and

33
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 1: kind of get accustomed to all of the game plans,

34
00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:24,680
Speaker 1: the need terminology and things like that.

35
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:26,560
Speaker 2: Uh I, I would say it's not. It's not an

36
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: easy adjustment at all, but it it it They, the

37
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 2: coaches and the players around me have been making things

38
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,240
Speaker 2: real smoothly for me. So just like I said, just

39
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 2: trying to learn to play book right now and do

40
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 2: everything I can to do to just find a way

41
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:39,839
Speaker 2: to contribute.

42
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: What he says, he's gonna be a team.

43
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 2: Do you think I'm not sure if he's gonna be

44
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 2: able to make it. It was short notice this week to

45
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 2: let him know, but it'll be a cool to see

46
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 2: him if he does show up. And it was just

47
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: way around, way around, better than me.
