Speaker 1: It's call how much better are you as in for
Speaker 1: at player now the a year ago?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 1: I would say, just like a lot, a lot a
Speaker 1: lot better. Uh being able to be in a room
Speaker 1: for a whole year around great guys like coach Holland,
Speaker 1: and then you get to watch Fred dre and last year,
Speaker 1: ob watch the guys fly around every Sunday. So it
Speaker 1: can't do nothing but uh get better and learn from 'em.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: You two personalities, and it seem like an easy going guy.
Speaker 3: It's easy to talk to you in the locker room,
Speaker 3: but on the field you just seem like all business.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I feel like most of us gotta
Speaker 1: have like on the football field. You can't kind of
Speaker 1: be the same as you are off the field, especially me.
Speaker 1: I play linebacker on defense, so can't really be as
Speaker 1: cool and calm or no like I am off the
Speaker 1: field on the field, Uh, just uh fast, physical and violent.
Speaker 2: Like last year at this time, you were playing a
Speaker 2: lot of real wine back. This year might be a
Speaker 2: little bit more world on the outside walls.
Speaker 3: Is is that right?
Speaker 2: And I did playing line a middle last year, you know,
Speaker 2: make it easier to play the outside roles this year?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I am playing a little bit more. I
Speaker 1: just been uh rotating in wherever they need me at.
Speaker 1: But uh, like you said, just playing starting at that
Speaker 1: mc uh for me, it just helped knowing kind of
Speaker 1: what everybody does. So switching to uh Sam and willis
Speaker 1: made it the easier adjustment.
Speaker 3: Is it?
Speaker 1: Where like specifically group Uh? I would like to say
Speaker 1: like actually being in the box I was in college
Speaker 1: more so like outside in kind of and now just
Speaker 1: just playing in the box, being comfortable in the box. Uh.
Speaker 1: How the linemen get to you from being in the box,
Speaker 1: from the way being outside, So just kind of everything
Speaker 1: that goes with it. Just just getting better at it
Speaker 1: and seeing it and it's slowing down for me. So
Speaker 1: that's good.
Speaker 3: Can you know just a difference to with just a
Speaker 3: couple this practice and maybe one more to go before
Speaker 3: the cut from ninety to fifty three? Different at practice? Uh?
Speaker 1: Not really? I think for us it's every every day
Speaker 1: we were going out there giving one hundred and ten
Speaker 1: percent uh and and doing whatever Kyle has us doing
Speaker 1: as far as periods and everybody's gonna give it. They
Speaker 1: all about teams.
Speaker 2: Do you feel more comfortable teams than you were a
Speaker 2: year ago.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, I think it's uh just like just like linebacker,
Speaker 1: it's another year uh in the room, uh, doing the
Speaker 1: drills outside. Uh, kind of just being more acclimated to
Speaker 1: the way we do different things on special teams. So yeah, definitely.
Speaker 2: How cool is it good for you to have green
Speaker 2: Law and Warner to the best to do it right now?
Speaker 1: Uh example as a extremely great Uh Like I said earlier,
Speaker 1: just being able to watch them for a whole year
Speaker 1: and now another year going into the off season, uh
Speaker 1: and coming out into the year. It's just been great
Speaker 1: to watch them and see how they operate, uh, their pros, pros,
Speaker 1: everything they do. They try to be the best at it,
Speaker 1: and they're they're as good as they are. They're always
Speaker 1: trying to be better, so that that's always a good thing.
Speaker 3: So you're a year ago, you're probably just you know,
Speaker 3: keeping your head above water and trying to keep up.
Speaker 3: And now you've done it for a year, do you
Speaker 3: look around at this unit and what you have in
Speaker 3: the pieces you haven't placed and think and this this
Speaker 3: could be a really good defense.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, definitely. I think, uh last year we had
Speaker 1: a really good defense, and I think, uh, every day
Speaker 1: they brought uh guys in and guys back for us
Speaker 1: to have another good defense this year. I think everybody's
Speaker 1: out there just working each day and uh trying to
Speaker 1: be the best we can be. Do you ever a
Speaker 1: connection with uh a little bit?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yep.
Speaker 1: Uh I had uh met him with Actually, the first
Speaker 1: time I seen him was like my freshman year. He
Speaker 1: was getting kind of award type thing for a homecoming game,
Speaker 1: so that was the first time I seen him. And
Speaker 1: then when I had came on my thirty visit, we
Speaker 1: actually got to talk a little bit more and everything,
Speaker 1: so that was great.
Speaker 3: Is it fun for you to watch? You got like
Speaker 3: Mustafa and Kyle said, Man, the guys are real plumper.
Speaker 1: U Oh yeah, yeah, definitely.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: He he just go out there play a hundred and
Speaker 1: ten miles per hour and he played defensiveway should be played.
Speaker 2: So anything else alright, Thank you appreciate it.
