I 3 00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 1: just want to put it out There'd be appreciated if 4 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:12,120 Speaker 1: you guys put your video on so I could look 5 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:19,600 Speaker 1: you in your eyes? Can you see me? No? Happy 6 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: to apply? I mean I have the videos out. I've 7 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: just yeah, we're good. Oh you got Phil. I'm curious 8 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: that David Andrews is somebody that's meant a lot to 9 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: your offense over the course of the last several years 10 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 1: here and UM, we know he's dealing with something right now, 11 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: but just how important has he been to the overall operation? 12 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:41,680 Speaker 1: Do you think in the two games he has been 13 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,880 Speaker 1: back after missing last year. I think he's been very 14 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,559 Speaker 1: very important. Um, not with just his play, but his 15 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: leadership and uh, just his professionalism. He's he's a stud 16 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: on and off the field. UM, you know, you don't 17 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 1: ever have to worry about it anything. He's always gonna 18 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: have his job done and he's he's a big part 19 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:10,479 Speaker 1: of this team. If he can't play this weekend, how 20 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: do you guys try to make up for that long? 21 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: I think everyone just got to worry about what they 22 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: have to do to go out and do their assignment, 23 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: and if we collectively do that, that's usually when you 24 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 1: have your best results. So you know, as a receiver, 25 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm gonna try to get open, catch a 26 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: ball and blocking the run game better and and you know, 27 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: if everyone does their job, that's usually when things go well. 28 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: And you know that's what I'm gonna be trying to do. 29 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 1: Thanks July. Yeah, next question Chris Ryan, followed by Jimmycbryde. Hey, Julian, 30 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 1: I'm curious as to how you see your role having 31 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: changed within the offense with a more mobile quarterback. You 32 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 1: mentioned blocking in the running game, and do you see 33 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 1: yourself as being you're perhaps more of a weapon in 34 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:04,919 Speaker 1: this offense than previous. None of that has even crossed 35 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: my mind. I mean that's more for you guys to 36 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: make a judgment on. I'm just trying to go out 37 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: and and do what the coach he has asked me 38 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: to do and try to get on the same page 39 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,679 Speaker 1: with Cam and and do the best I can. So 40 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: that's what I'll continually try to do. Just to follow 41 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: up on leadership, Nikkil was mentioning as you've been along 42 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: with Cam a big figure in helping him here in 43 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: his second season. What's your approach to leadership and how 44 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: do you go trying to help a guy like Nikil. 45 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: I just kind of share with him, you know, little 46 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: things that helped me when I was young. We've all 47 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,519 Speaker 1: been young in the locker room. We've all been new 48 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:54,640 Speaker 1: to an environment, you know, and I don't know anywhere else, 49 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: but here it's a little different. I guess that's what 50 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 1: everyone says. And you just try to give him a 51 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: little tidbits and things, um that make things more routine 52 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 1: and comfortable for him. H So, I mean, that's that's 53 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: that's what I try to do with lead by example. 54 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: And you know, if I see something or you know, 55 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: that could be bit, you know, not if I see 56 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: something or he has a question, I could be the 57 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: guy to you know, he can you can ask ask 58 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: a question to um. So that's what I try to do. 59 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: And I'm super proud of him and I and you know, 60 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: I'm I hope he continues to blossom the way he's 61 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,960 Speaker 1: going because he's doing an awesome job. Next question Jim McBride, 62 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 1: followed by Bob Socie. Hey, Julian, when you look at 63 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: this raiders, defense and the secondary in particular. What stands 64 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:55,680 Speaker 1: out to you? Uh, physical big um, So, I mean 65 00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: they're they're they're athletic. So, I mean, that's that's what 66 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: you see when you see them. Abraham Abraham, you know 67 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: he's a says he's a rookie because he missed last year, 68 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 1: but you know, having a year in a system and 69 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,520 Speaker 1: being a high draft pick, and he's very athletic, instinctive 70 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 1: football player. And there's a bunch of guys over there 71 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: that play the game well. And you know, coach Gruden 72 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 1: seems to be the guy that you know gets this 73 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: guy's going, so, uh, you don't have to worry about that. 74 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: Christian Bob Socie, followed by Aiden Kern. All right, thanks Stacy, 75 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 1: Hi Jolan, how you doing good? Are you? I'm good? Thanks? 76 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: Going back to the little things that help you develop 77 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: as a young receiver and the tidbits that you share 78 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: with Nikkil and the other young guys. What was most 79 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: important about your early development as a reporter to help 80 00:04:53,800 --> 00:05:00,359 Speaker 1: you establish yourself in the league. H. I don't know, 81 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: so long ago, man, I'm just I think establishing, you know, 82 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: a good routine is probably something that helped me get 83 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: to you know, where I want to go and where 84 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: I continue to try to try to get. Tom. You know, 85 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: when you when you have a good routine, and I 86 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 1: learned that from a lot of veteran players that are 87 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 1: just according to a position. But if you if you 88 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:31,600 Speaker 1: put together a routine, find out what you have to do, 89 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: work hard at those things, and try to improve. I 90 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: mean that's usually when you improve and have a healthy mindset. 91 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: So those are some of the things that kind of 92 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: helped me out of left harding routine quickly. You're you're 93 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 1: always one of the first, if not the first out 94 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: on the field, and you go through that regiment catching 95 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: the ball out on the field. When did that develop 96 00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 1: for you? What did you start doing that league? I 97 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 1: start doing that pretty early in uh in the league. 98 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 1: I used to do a little more extensive physically, UH 99 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 1: when I was a lot younger, but it's just more catches. 100 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: So um, pretty early. Great, thank you. Yeah, last question 101 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 1: Aiden current Hey joan UM. A lot of athletes talk about, 102 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 1: you know, knowing their why and what their motivation is 103 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: for going out on the field. Um. You know, you 104 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: you've gained some headlines earlier season when you use your 105 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: halfly miserable line, just curious. At this point in your career, 106 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,479 Speaker 1: you know, what is your motivation? What are you playing for? 107 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: You know you've won some bawls, You've you've played the 108 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: best of the best. What gets you going and and 109 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: gets you motivated these days? I love to compete and 110 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,720 Speaker 1: I love football playing simple, I mean, it's better than 111 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 1: being in a cubicle. I think it's an unbelievable job. 112 00:06:55,040 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: I love the locker room, I love the life, um 113 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: and I love I just love football. Something I've been 114 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,359 Speaker 1: doing since I was eight years old. I've been around 115 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: since I was in diapers. And you know, it's uh, 116 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: it's it's something that is very up there on my 117 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: Totem poll of importance in my life. So I'd say 118 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: that's the reason. Great. Thanks, thank you, Julian, Thanks everyone,
