You know, it 48 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 2: was kind of a week to week thing from the 49 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,079 Speaker 2: from the get go though, and in terms of how 50 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 2: how they saw the improvement and and uh, you know 51 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 2: how it kind of how it went from there. So 52 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 2: that was kind of the approach but yeah, rest was 53 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 2: a component at the beginning. So contact this thing is 54 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 2: that about you telling them you don't feel something anymore? 55 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 3: And what is the indicator that they were including from 56 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 3: contact after? 57 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think it's just tests. You know, 58 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 2: I feel good and uh, you know from pain level. 59 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 2: You know, I feel feel good, don't have any pain, 60 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 2: and yeah, it's just passing a couple more tests it 61 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 2: gives you symptom. Yeah, I mean, I think there's still 62 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:06,920 Speaker 2: some symptoms there. I think, yeah, I feel good. 63 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: You don't have to tell them that your symptom free 64 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: before they can get clear. 65 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think there's certain symptoms that they're looking for 66 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 2: and testing for from a pain level, and you know, 67 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 2: based on you know how I feel. I feel good, 68 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 2: and that's been the communication from that from that symptoms. 69 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 2: You're right, there's certain things that I haven't done yet. 70 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: Three years ago, I think you. 71 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: Were seeing like a specialist. It's fine a specialist in 72 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 2: LA if you have to do anything like that, like 73 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 2: go for a second opinions anywhere. I haven't. I've been 74 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 2: here in New York. I've gotten you know, a couple 75 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 2: of different opinions from doctors. But I've been here. We've 76 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 2: got great doctors here in New York. What gives you 77 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: optimism this time? 78 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: Obviously last time they had to shut you down? 79 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 3: Right, what gives you optimism this time that this is 80 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 3: going to end differently? 81 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 2: It's a different injury. It's a different injury. And I 82 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 2: think when you see other guys who have similar situations 83 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 2: as mine and they're able to progress and come back, 84 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 2: you know, I'm following a similar timeline to that, So 85 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 2: you know, that's kind of the optimism. And and yeah, 86 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 2: it's different injuries. 87 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 3: The last time. 88 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: What players are you talking about, right, that Similars.

Uh. 94 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there's a number of different things you 95 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 2: can do treatment wise that we do here with our 96 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: with our trainers, and yeah, doing everything I possibly can 97 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: to get back Daniel. 98 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:46,480 Speaker 3: And they shared with you, the trainers doctors, what the 99 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 3: risk would be if they put you on a football 100 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 3: field and you did have contact, especially in a certain area. 101 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, they've shared that with me, you know, And I'm 102 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 2: I'm certainly uh trying as hard as I can to 103 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 2: get back, but uh yeah, from the doctor's standpoint, it's 104 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 2: not something he can he can clear me to do 105 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 2: at this point, So, uh, trying to do everything I 106 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: can to get better. Looks like, but like, do you 107 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: have to be more sensitive because the neck it's not 108 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 2: an ankle, it's not a shoulder, Like, is that part 109 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 2: of this whether they have to be extra cautious? Yeah, 110 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I think anytime you're talking about the neck, 111 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 2: it's you know, yeah, you got to understand the risk 112 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:26,480 Speaker 2: of of re injury and and what you know, what 113 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 2: would happen if you were to to reinjury it.
