Yeah, wouldn't be too much 3 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 1: from this. Yeah, I think you're doing better than you're 4 00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: leading on. Yeah, I know exactly. Oh shot more shots 5 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 1: there you go. That's gonna start off with something a 6 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: little different. Just with Richard Seymour going into the Patriots 7 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame? Do you have much like connection at 8 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: all with him? And thought? I do? Um, Me and 9 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: Seymour like to play cards, so um. I mean I 10 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 1: actually saw him over the off season, told him congrats 11 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: and just how much you know, I appreciate the foundation 12 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: he's laid and just him as a person. I like, 13 00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: he's a good vibe. You know, he's just chill and 14 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: kind of similar to me in that regards, and you know, 15 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: I really like Richard. He's a good dude. And yeah, 16 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 1: we just vibe well together. I mean we just cross 17 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: over cross pass. Uh um. Sorry, hold on, hey, I'm 18 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: doing media. I'll call you back all right. Sorry God 19 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: answering that one. Um, but no, we've just crossed paths 20 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: over the off season and you know, caught up and 21 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: just making sure he's good and asking how my family is. 22 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: So it was good to see him. He was talking 23 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: more life for football, more life. I mean, he's humble, 24 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: so I'm sure he doesn't necessarily I'm not gonna ask 25 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: him like a million football questions or you know, it's 26 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: more just congratulations on your success and um getting inducted 27 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: to the Hall of Fame here. UM. I also think 28 00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: he needs to get his gold jacket. Not many people 29 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: walk the earth like him and play dominant football like him. Um, 30 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 1: but that's a different story. Um, he gets that redcoat, 31 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: and that's an amazing accomplishment and he should be proud. 32 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: His family should be proud. He worked really hard to 33 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: get that and he deserves it. It's the defense I 34 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: would imagine, and I don't want to put words that's 35 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: not a great taste. You know what I means that 36 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: you have for right now? How do you get to 37 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: where you want it to be? Play of the next game, um, 38 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: and play Patriot football in that game. And you know, 39 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: we're so focused on the Jets and we're so ready 40 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,880 Speaker 1: to get back on the field to be able to 41 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: perform at the level that we have, especially in front 42 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 1: of our fans that deserve better than what we've been doing. UM. 43 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: And the guys are hungry that we're working hard. We 44 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: just need to go prove it football. What does that 45 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: tail to you? All the things that Bill preaches up 46 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: here and our captains preach and um, play smart, tough, 47 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: physical football. Um, And we've had that at moments in spurts, 48 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: But we just need to do it for an entire 49 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: sixty minute game. And I think that's what we want 50 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: to get accomplished on Sunday. Guys yesterday who said, you 51 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: know we're not we don't feel like we're two and fourteen? 52 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: What do you? I mean, what do you think? The 53 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 1: old adage? Right? Your record is? It is what it is, right, 54 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 1: So it is we're two and four. We're two and 55 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: four and we just gotta battle out of this slump 56 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: we got and went at home? Do you and I 57 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: know you say the next game where this next practice 58 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: is the thing that you have to focus on. But 59 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: there does there become an urgency in terms of what 60 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: we are two and four? And yeah? There should be, Yeah, 61 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: there there should be, and I think there is. Um 62 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: just every day you just got to keep that earning 63 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: and the energy and urgency up and you know, we 64 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 1: better have it on Sunday what do you see from you? 65 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: I mean, I you saw it before that too, like 66 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 1: you just see um, you see a lot of talent, 67 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 1: uh and him understanding his players better, how to navigate 68 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: through the pocket better. Just everything he's done better. Decisions 69 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: are better, and he's definitely getting a lot better each 70 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: and every week. And you know I knew that back 71 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 1: when I met him when he was eighth grade he 72 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: was gonna be special. Um. And he's done that and more. 73 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: I mean, to go to New York and you know 74 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: that type of environment and being number two or overall 75 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: pick and to go in and have the attitude he's had, 76 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: it's gonna show. And every week it's showing that he's 77 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: getting better. It's it's good to see well, I mean 78 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:46,599 Speaker 1: except for a Sunday, right, but it's cool to see 79 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:53,720 Speaker 1: him progress. No, no, no, um My one of my 80 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: friends is like the receiver guru out and out in 81 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 1: Utah um. And he worked with Zach Wilson and I 82 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: helped out with like a seven on seven camp. And um, 83 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 1: I believe he was in high school going to going 84 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: to Brigham at the time, and you knew he was 85 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: gonna be special. He's got a cannon and you just 86 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: he carries himself like he just is. He just carries 87 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: himself in a different way that you're like, Okay, he's 88 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:31,279 Speaker 1: got it. That sweet. That's the type of guy you like. 89 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: Did you many contact with him during the drought process? 90 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not gonna go that far, you know 91 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: what I mean? Noah, Noah. So Bill was talking about 92 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: the chests running back yesterday and how what's the teaching 93 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: point on the coaching point this week to make sure 94 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: that they don't do that. I think it's more hats 95 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: to the ball. They've been running really well. They had 96 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 1: some yards on us last time. They did a really 97 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: good job. You know Carter, I don't his last name again, 98 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: it's Carter, Yeah, Michael Carter. There we go. Sorry, I 99 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: want to get it right him. Telvin Coleman and Ty 100 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: Johnson are doing a really good job for him. The 101 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: o lines blocking very well for him, and the receiver's 102 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: block really good. So it's gonna take all of us 103 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:31,119 Speaker 1: to hone in and do our assignments and then rally 104 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: to the ball. More hats to the ball, the better 105 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: chances you have from bringing them down. Bill was talking 106 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: us yesterday about he thinks the Jets at a lot 107 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: of wrinkles coming Sunday. Maybe that's just because they're coming 108 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: off a bend. Do you see that as any team 109 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 1: coming off of by might have more rinkles or what? 110 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: What do you think about that the idea they might have, Yeah, 111 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 1: I would agree with that. I mean, he's done this 112 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: for longer than I have, so I'm probably gonna lean 113 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: on that. And from the times that I've been in 114 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: the NFL teams do they get to self scout and 115 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: they get to see what they're doing really good and 116 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: what they're not doing really good, and they get to 117 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: try to perfect those crafts that they're working on. And 118 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: um ocs get a little more time to watch film 119 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 1: and look at what we've been doing. So I would 120 00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: imagine they would have some stuff for us anything else yesterday? Oh? Thanks? 121 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 1: Established Yeah. So my wife and I started the Vanoid 122 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 1: Valor Foundation seven years ago. We started because I'm actually adopted. 123 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: My wife's brother and dad are also adopted, so it 124 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: hits home to us. We work with foster care, um 125 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: and struggling youth in the communities. We just want to 126 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: armor them with success and whatever is they're trying to do. 127 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: UM kids deserve chances, and not everybody's in a situation 128 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: they want to be, so we try to help them out. 129 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: We started the Valiant Knights program I believe last year, yes, 130 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: last year, and that program gives kids that are aging 131 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: out of the foster care when they turn eighteen. They're 132 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: just kind of you're off on your own, but it 133 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: gives them a chance to go to school on a 134 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: scholarship and have a paid internship. And we're trying to 135 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: get as many companies in Boston to be able to 136 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: do this, so it allows kids to have chances to 137 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:39,439 Speaker 1: continue to grow and not be another statistic in our society. 138 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: And so we want to do the best we can 139 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: to get as many kids from the foster care that 140 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 1: are aging out a chance, and they deserve it because 141 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 1: when you meet them, you're like, man, you're impressive. And 142 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: the kids that are in the that went through our 143 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: first year, I mean, they're already getting hired by the 144 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: co companies that had them, or they they're finishing up 145 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: schools so then they have a job when they're done 146 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: because they've been that impressive. So it's exciting. We're just 147 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: trying to get as much traction as we can, and 148 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: we're just trying to grow it as big as we can. 149 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 1: Hopefully it turns out to be nationwide and we get 150 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 1: you know, companies like Apple or Google and you know, 151 00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: hopefully the Craft family. Yeah, thank you, I appreciate that. Thanks, 152 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: thanks for that. Hi, so you guys
