00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Official Jets Podcast, powered

2
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: by Amazon Web Services. On today's episode, you're gonna hear

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: from the newest New York Jets. That's cornerback Pierre Desir,

4
00:00:13,520 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: offensive lineman Connor McGovern, and wide receiver Brashad Perriman. And

5
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,960
Speaker 1: he let's just kick things off with Pierre Desire coming

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,240
Speaker 1: from the Indianapolis Colls. What do you think he can

7
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 1: add to the Jets defense? In well number one Greens,

8
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: he fits a need because the Jets needed help on

9
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 1: the outside after releasing a pair of opening A starters

10
00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 1: from a year ago and Tremaine Johnson and Darryl Roberts,

11
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:38,959
Speaker 1: so you knew they were going to address the position.

12
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 1: After the Indianapolis Colts signed Philip Rivers or agreed to

13
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 1: terms with Rivers, they released Pierre Desire shortly thereafter. The

14
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: Jets needed somebody with starting experience who's had success in

15
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:58,040
Speaker 1: the National Football League, and Desire fits the bill. The

16
00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: other thing to consider here is is the Jets have

17
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: great knowledge of this guy, considering Joe Douglas is top

18
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: right hand man is assistant GM rex Hogan. Well, rex

19
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: Hogan was there in Indianapolis when Desire had perhaps his

20
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 1: best professional season two years ago. Well, let's get right

21
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: into it here, Pierre Jazir with Olivia Landis, what has

22
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 1: the emotions been like with this transformation and what have

23
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 1: you really felt during this time of going to a

24
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: brand new team. You know what, the fans have just

25
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: reached out to me and it's just uh, so so

26
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 1: much support, UM, so much love, and I'm just I'm

27
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: just excited, you know, for the opportunity to uh to

28
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,319
Speaker 1: have a fresh start, and I'm very excited to be

29
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,440
Speaker 1: a part of the Jets and I just can't wait

30
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: him again. Pierre, You've been in the league since two

31
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,559
Speaker 1: thousand and fourteen, You've been with a couple of different teams.

32
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 1: But when you look at the New York Jets and

33
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: Greg Williams as the defensive coordinator, why do you think

34
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: this was the best fit? You know what, I why

35
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 1: I decided the best fit for me? It's uh number one.

36
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: I love New York. UM. I've been in New York

37
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 1: multiple times, especially for Broadway. UM. I was actually able

38
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 1: to talk to coach Williams and just just speaking on

39
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: his philosophy and how he saw basically as a player's

40
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: team and what he was trying to build with the culture.

41
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: Uh definitely fit me and we have a great conversation.

42
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: UM just talked about a lot of stuff football life.

43
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: You know how he you know, knows a lot about St.

44
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: Louis and the Missouri area. So I just felt very

45
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:44,080
Speaker 1: comfortable with talking with coach Williams and he made my

46
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 1: decision very easy. How important is that from a player's

47
00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,520
Speaker 1: perspective to be on the same page and feel that connection,

48
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: especially with the defensive coordinator, You know, it's very important,

49
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: especially when you when the when the coach is able

50
00:02:57,320 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: to see a player's view and see how the players

51
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: see things, it makes it a lot easier, UM, because

52
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: now you're not really you know, they know that you're

53
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 1: telling the truth and they know that you're honest, and uh,

54
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: you know that that helps it better line of communication,

55
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 1: especially when times get hard during the season. And I

56
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 1: think that's you know, definitely very important and that's UM

57
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:22,839
Speaker 1: something that I definitely take as a priority, UM for

58
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: a coach and UM as as far as the team,

59
00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: when you look at yourself as a player and as

60
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 1: a cornerback as a whole, what are you bringing to

61
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 1: this team and this secondary you know, for me, what

62
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,480
Speaker 1: I'm bringing is experience. Um. I've been with a lot

63
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: of different schemes, been around a lot of different players,

64
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: different coaches, So, um, I learned a lot from a

65
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 1: lot of people. So just bringing that experience and that knowledge,

66
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: and for me, I bring a type of you know, leadership.

67
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 1: Being an older guy, being in the league for six years,

68
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: I've seen a lot and I think that I'm just

69
00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: going to bring my experiences, bring my just just bring

70
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: my motivation, just bring my worth ethic and you know,

71
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 1: just going to have fun. I do everything I can,

72
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: put my heart into everything for the team and for

73
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: the city here. Obviously, we are in a very difficult

74
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 1: and different time right now around the world, especially in

75
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,640
Speaker 1: the NFL with the coronavirus pandemic going on, things had

76
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,599
Speaker 1: to be going a little bit differently, especially with the signing.

77
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: But when you think about the time that we're in,

78
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,160
Speaker 1: you also contributed off the field. Can you talk a

79
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 1: little bit about what you did in Indianapolis contributing some

80
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 1: of the meals actually was in St. Louis. You know,

81
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: I saw that there was a need for uh just

82
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 1: the meals, um just especially with the schools being out

83
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: and I've been in those kids situations where school is

84
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 1: the most important meal, maybe be the only meal that

85
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 1: some of these kids get. And so I talked to

86
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 1: my agency just to figure out somewhere I could help.

87
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 1: We partnered with the St. Louis Food Bank and we

88
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: was able to provide over twenty thou meals uh to

89
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 1: a lot of different families. Um that you know they're

90
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: definitely uh, you know, gonna need in this time and

91
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 1: need when. Um you know they're not able to get

92
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: that food from schools or different organizations. Well, that's tremendous

93
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,479
Speaker 1: what you are doing, and not only off the field,

94
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 1: but we're also looking forward to having you on the

95
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 1: field here. Thank you so much for joining us today,

96
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: letting us get to know you a little bit more.

97
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 1: We look forward to the time we're all able to

98
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,799
Speaker 1: be together again. But stay safe, stay with your family,

99
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,720
Speaker 1: and congratulations. I appreciate it. Thank you you Tuesday Safe.

100
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 1: He what really stands out to me about desire disregarding

101
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: his play on the field is what he does in

102
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 1: the community off the field. And you're just going back

103
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: to what Joe Douglas has consistently said since day one.

104
00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,760
Speaker 1: He's trying to build the best culture in sports, and

105
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 1: Pierre de Zier definitely fits that bill. Oh my god,

106
00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 1: what a fascinating story. He was born poor in Haiti.

107
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,720
Speaker 1: I believed he lived there until he was four. Ultimately

108
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:08,200
Speaker 1: he ended up playing college football at Washburn and Lyndenwood,

109
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 1: both Division two schools. Greens. There has to be nobody

110
00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 1: in the history the NFL who's taken the truck that

111
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 1: the Zier has. You talk about culture. He was the

112
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 1: Walter Peyton Man of the Year for the Colts last year.

113
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 1: The scouting report on de Zier is he's a good

114
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,599
Speaker 1: bit in the locker room. And we could say the

115
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: same thing about a new Jets interior offensive lignement and

116
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:35,600
Speaker 1: Connor mcgovernor. So Connor McGovern definitely fits that bill as well.

117
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: Now I'm switching back to on the field. Something that

118
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,840
Speaker 1: I think Joe Douglass really likes about Connor mcgovernment is

119
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 1: the fact that he can play multiple positions up front

120
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: on the interior and McGovern comes into the league as

121
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 1: a guard and he transitions to center. Placed two years

122
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 1: at center the past two seasons for the Denver Broncos.

123
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,440
Speaker 1: Starts in thirty one out of the thirty two games,

124
00:06:56,440 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: so he's durable. And perhaps what's craziest to is that

125
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: this past season he played in every single offensive snap

126
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: and didn't commit a single penalty. Yeah how about that?

127
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 1: And mcgoverned such a fascinating guy. Is we're gonna here

128
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 1: in a moment when we take a listen to your

129
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: chat with him. But his family owned a potato farm

130
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: there in North Dakota. I mean, he really learned the

131
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: value of hard work growing up there in North Dakota.

132
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: And then listen, trained powerlifter. And also the other thing

133
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: Jets fans might like here is that he in the

134
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 1: past hooked up with Met mc chesney to do some

135
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 1: training there in Colorado. Mc chesney made his NFL debut

136
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,520
Speaker 1: as a Jets defensive tackle way back in two thousand five.

137
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: So this is a fascinating guy, and there's a reason

138
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,960
Speaker 1: to believe that the Jets are getting a guy on

139
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,440
Speaker 1: up swing right now. And without further ado, here he

140
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:04,560
Speaker 1: is new. It's interior, all friendsive Lineman, Connum, govern Connor,

141
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,600
Speaker 1: you're in Fargo, North Dakota. You're from North Dakota. But yeah,

142
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 1: actually have New York, New Jersey rootstick. So can you

143
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: just elaborate on that a little bit. Yeah, of course,

144
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 1: you know, my dad's families from the East Coast family,

145
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 1: his mom and dad, Uh grew up in Brooklyn and

146
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: then um, you know, he was born in New Jersey,

147
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,559
Speaker 1: ended up moving around a lot with his dad's job.

148
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 1: But um, he still UM has a lot of cousins

149
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 1: out there. You know, I call them there were obviously

150
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 1: really close. I call him uncle's even though technically their

151
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 1: second cousins. UM. So you know, I grew up a lot,

152
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 1: uh spent some summers out on the Jersey shore, um

153
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,160
Speaker 1: in Ocean Grove, and and I spent a lot of

154
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 1: time out there. You know. Actually I think my first

155
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:49,360
Speaker 1: NFL game was a Jets game versus the Ravens. UM.

156
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: So there's definitely you know, I'm originally from North Dakota,

157
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: but there's definitely some ties to the East Coast. You

158
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 1: played center, you playguard. You just told the media that

159
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 1: you prefer center. I have to ask have you reached

160
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 1: out to Sam Donald at all? And if you have,

161
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 1: was it him that started the communication and just how

162
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,320
Speaker 1: did the overall communication go? Yeah, you know we're um,

163
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: we have the same agency c A. So, UM, it's

164
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 1: pretty easy to get his contact info. Um, and with

165
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,599
Speaker 1: all the stuff going on, you know, he uh he

166
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: actually ended up reaching out to me, just said what's up,

167
00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: and and that, you know, getting excited for everything to start.

168
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,160
Speaker 1: And when everything does start, UM, definitely excited to uh,

169
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: you know, really grow and build that relationship. You know,

170
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: with everything going on, it's been um and it's been

171
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: you know a little slow, and there hasn't been a

172
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: huge need to start that that relationship. But now that

173
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 1: I think everyone's starting to officially sign and you know,

174
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 1: the ball is starting to roll a little bit more

175
00:09:45,200 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: with um, you know act the team really coming together,

176
00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:50,839
Speaker 1: I think now is the time that you know that

177
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,679
Speaker 1: communication will really be key and and and really start

178
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: to grow the camaraderie that's needed to win a lot

179
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,680
Speaker 1: of football games. Simply put, what do you add to

180
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,360
Speaker 1: this New York Jets offensive line? You know, I hope

181
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: to add a lot of different aspects. Um, you know,

182
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 1: the way the way I play and and what's you

183
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: know gotten me to this point is obviously my work

184
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: ethic and and uh, the the my ability to you

185
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: know just playum to the to the whistle and you know,

186
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,440
Speaker 1: and I have a no quid attitude. You know. My um,

187
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:23,120
Speaker 1: I always have gone by the belief that, uh, you know, hustle.

188
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 1: It takes no ability. You know, it doesn't take any

189
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 1: God given ability to to work hard and and to

190
00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: to give your best. And that's the kind of the

191
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 1: attitude I'm gonna try to bring. And from what I've noticed,

192
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,599
Speaker 1: that's the attitude that a lot of the guys and

193
00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:37,960
Speaker 1: the Jets have with you know, Alex Lewis and all

194
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,559
Speaker 1: those kind of guys have that you know, attitude that

195
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,760
Speaker 1: you know, there's no quit and and takes no ability

196
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: to to to give full effort. And and then besides that,

197
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 1: obviously just um the mental side, you know, hoping to

198
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: be able to help make everyone's jobs easier and and

199
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: help with the calls and get everyone on the right page.

200
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: And um, if you have a couple of guys that

201
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,680
Speaker 1: um you and mentally have it, have it really down

202
00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 1: and makes everyone else's job a lot easier and everyone

203
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,400
Speaker 1: can play play fast. You know, that's the key to

204
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: winning games is playing fast. And you can't play fast

205
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,720
Speaker 1: you don't know what you're doing. And and I hope

206
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: to help everyone get on the right page and be

207
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:16,600
Speaker 1: able to play fast, so free agency takes two to

208
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: tango here. Jets clearly interested in you. But why were

209
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 1: you interested in the Jets? You know, I think the

210
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,800
Speaker 1: Jets have have a real good core and they have

211
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,200
Speaker 1: a good core group of guys that that it takes

212
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: to win a lot of football games. I wanted to

213
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 1: add to that core. Um and and I you know,

214
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,360
Speaker 1: with a with a young quarterback that has a lot

215
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: of talent, you have the opportunity when a lot of

216
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,800
Speaker 1: football games got a great running back, you got all

217
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: the weapons, and now we have well you built the

218
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: offensive line and you know, the Jets always have had

219
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: the defense to win to win championships. So um, I

220
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,199
Speaker 1: you know, I thought it was a team where I could,

221
00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,840
Speaker 1: um be a piece that plugs in and to to

222
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: really help it reach at the next level and win

223
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 1: a lot of football games. So obviously a lot of

224
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,959
Speaker 1: people are gonna ask you about Sam Donald protecting him,

225
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,200
Speaker 1: what you can do for a young quarterback, So I

226
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: want to get your opinion on not only that, but

227
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: what can you do for the guy that you're blocking for?

228
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,520
Speaker 1: And Levy on Bell because he's clearly one of the

229
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,680
Speaker 1: premier backs in this league. Blocking for a guy like

230
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 1: Levy on Bell's Bell is nice. You know he can

231
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: he can make your block look really good and you

232
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: can also make his runs look a little better. Um.

233
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: So I'm excited to block for both of those guys.

234
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,319
Speaker 1: Um to help both those guys m on the mental side.

235
00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: One play doesn't work very well for you guys if

236
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,000
Speaker 1: you're not all working to the right guys and on

237
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,600
Speaker 1: the same page. Um. So I'm excited to be with

238
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,080
Speaker 1: both of those guys. There's some serious weapons and and

239
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 1: you know, it gives you a lot of confidence to

240
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: have them and them back there, and it's it's something

241
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,640
Speaker 1: that makes you really want to want to block, you know,

242
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 1: give that electra efforts. You know, at any moment, Leby

243
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: on Bell could could bust that you know, last arm

244
00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: tackle and take it to the house. And and Sam

245
00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: can you know if you give him that last half

246
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: a second and throw a diamond score a touchdown. So

247
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,319
Speaker 1: um it's it's it's gonna be a special year, and

248
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,880
Speaker 1: I'm excited about it. Okay, I just want to end

249
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 1: things here on a rather light note. You grew up

250
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:02,079
Speaker 1: on a potato farm. What is your favorite form of potato?

251
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 1: I think it's a very it's a northern northern thing

252
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:07,760
Speaker 1: or if you've ever been to I don't know if

253
00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 1: Cracker barrels out on the East coast, but those cheesy

254
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,800
Speaker 1: hash browns give me every time. You know, we always

255
00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: had them. My grandma would always make them um at

256
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: holidays and stuff and and cheesy hash brown that's like

257
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: a hot dish thing, which is you know, dont embarrassing

258
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 1: staying hot dish come from the West, but it's it's

259
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,559
Speaker 1: one of my favorite ways to enjoy good potato. Okay, well,

260
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,679
Speaker 1: we have good news for you. There is Cracker Barrel

261
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: here on the missing that too much. Connor, thanks a

262
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:37,080
Speaker 1: lot of congratulations and joining the Jets awesome, Thank you

263
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 1: very much. He I'm gonna jump right off of what

264
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 1: I just asked connormer govern at the end of that interview. So,

265
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,959
Speaker 1: like you said, grew up on a potato farm, I

266
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:51,319
Speaker 1: asked him his favorite form of potato. Now, actually, quite surprisingly,

267
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,200
Speaker 1: he said that his favorite form of potato was cheesy

268
00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,599
Speaker 1: hash browns from Cracker Barrel, which, honestly, I thought he

269
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:01,440
Speaker 1: would have something totally different and to say, but I

270
00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 1: didn't know they hold on, hold on, I did not

271
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: know they cracker barrel out west. They didn't know that

272
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 1: they had cracker barrel out east, so I guess cracker

273
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: barrel really extends nationwide or North Dakota at least. Listen,

274
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:22,239
Speaker 1: I'm irish. I love all potatoes, especially like twice baked potatoes.

275
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 1: But I'm a big French fry guy. I'm not a

276
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 1: fryer per se, but I get the frozen ones and

277
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:32,320
Speaker 1: I baked them. But uh, I love just regular baked potatoes,

278
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: loaded baked potatoes without sour cream. I love potatoes. Yeah,

279
00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I feel like there's not really

280
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: a bad form of potato. People can't have their favorite form,

281
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 1: but I agree with you. I feel like all forms

282
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 1: of potatoes are acceptable. What's your thought on sweet potatoes though?

283
00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,520
Speaker 1: A big fan? Okay, A big fan as well, And

284
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 1: they're probably healthier for you. That's what I've heard anyway,

285
00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 1: And uh, I do like sweet potatoes. And oh, by

286
00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 1: the way, something that I didn't really try until I

287
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: was an adult, sweet potato pie. Oh that's money. I

288
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:09,760
Speaker 1: don't think I've had sweet potato pie. I think it

289
00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:13,320
Speaker 1: kind of freaks me out. Okay, yeah, I might have

290
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: to add that next Thanksgiving and you caught up with

291
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: Breshad Perriman, the new Jets wide receiver. So before we

292
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 1: hear from him, what did you think about talking to Peerman? Like?

293
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 1: What what? What was your takeaway from your interview? I

294
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: think here's a guy that is confident, but he's also humble,

295
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: and I think that he learned a lot in Tampa

296
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: um playing on a loaded wide receiver unit. Uh, he

297
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: really flourished down the stretch and my sense screens and

298
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,400
Speaker 1: I asked him straight up about this, is that he

299
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 1: thinks the best is infrontable. If you're a Jets fan,

300
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: you're definitely hoping that Breshad Perriman has his best football

301
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: ahead of him and has taken what he what he's

302
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 1: done in the last five games of the two thousand

303
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: nineteen season, had made that more consistent and made that

304
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: a habit entering and here he is, the newest Jets receiver,

305
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 1: Breshad Perriman. How unique was this free agency process for you?

306
00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:19,000
Speaker 1: It was very unique, you know. It was you know

307
00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: a lot of waiting around, you know, just being patient,

308
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: waiting on the right team, called the right offer that

309
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 1: would give me the right opportunity, you know, to massimize

310
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 1: my my ability and bring home a Super Bowl trophy.

311
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: Why were the Jets the right opportunity for you? You

312
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,960
Speaker 1: really just sit back and you know, you know Adam Gates,

313
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: you know, the offensive minded coach that he is, and um,

314
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 1: all of the receivers you know that's been in his system, man,

315
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: you know, Robbie Jamison and everybody, all of the guys

316
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 1: that had those those great years and those great numbers,

317
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,440
Speaker 1: and you just looking around at the guys that's on

318
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: the team and how to extent and you just see

319
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: a huge opportunity and not only individually but as a team,

320
00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:01,160
Speaker 1: you know, trying to go get a a Super Bowl ring.

321
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 1: What clicked for you down the stretch last year? You

322
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,959
Speaker 1: were one of the most productive receivers in the National

323
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: Football League last five games, twenty five catches, five hundred

324
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:16,959
Speaker 1: six yards receiving and five touchdowns. Really just was it

325
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,640
Speaker 1: was really all just opportunity, I feel like, you know, um,

326
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: you know, with with the guys then, they were pretty

327
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:28,360
Speaker 1: stating the receiver you know in Temple you know, yeah, Mike, Yeah,

328
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: Chris Godwin, yeah, me, Um, you know Mike and Chris

329
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 1: uh one of the one of the top receivers in

330
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: his league, and you know, once they once they went down,

331
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,879
Speaker 1: you know, unfortunately they suffered the entering, but it forced me,

332
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,199
Speaker 1: you know, in a bigger role, and it gave me

333
00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:48,240
Speaker 1: more opportunities, and I just kept reize on them. Did

334
00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 1: that stretch of games give you more confidence or was

335
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:55,880
Speaker 1: a confidence always there since you entered the league out

336
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 1: of Central Florida two thousand fifteen, and it was more so? Hey,

337
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,399
Speaker 1: it I had the opportunity in front of me, and

338
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna capitalize. I feel like the confidence was always there.

339
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,560
Speaker 1: I guess it did play a part in a way.

340
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: You know, as a receiver, you just love getting the rhythm.

341
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,240
Speaker 1: You know, once you have it again in that rhythm again,

342
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:15,040
Speaker 1: that groove, you you just feel like you want to stoppable,

343
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 1: and you know that's that's usually how I feel. But

344
00:18:17,560 --> 00:18:20,360
Speaker 1: it really feel good, you know, when you can do

345
00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 1: it consistently. I just bring a whole, another whole, another

346
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 1: swag I got to use. You've had a lot of

347
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 1: stops throughout your career. Can you take me through maybe

348
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: how you've developed the most sense The guy who's drafted

349
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 1: number twenty six overall in two thousand and fifteen by

350
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,760
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Raven. I feel like every team had his

351
00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: had his hand and you know, my development going back

352
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: to the Ravens, they blessed me with the opportunity. You know,

353
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,639
Speaker 1: I was the first round pick, and that was a

354
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 1: total blessing self for the injury my first year that

355
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: had me, you know, on the sidelines of the whole year.

356
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,719
Speaker 1: Come back, the second year put up you know, average year,

357
00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: but you know I spent it more for myself, and

358
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: third year struggled, you know. So it was it was

359
00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: it was a lot of just mental battles that that

360
00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:08,880
Speaker 1: developed me mentally, you know, to be mentally stronger and

361
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,400
Speaker 1: just to keep fighting through all the diversity. Cleveland definitely

362
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,200
Speaker 1: play a part of my development as well, you know,

363
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,880
Speaker 1: after being released and then just giving me an opportunity

364
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 1: and go out there and and really just put it

365
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: all on the line, put all confidence and block all

366
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,320
Speaker 1: the noise out, and myself, you know, really did go

367
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,320
Speaker 1: out there and play my game and half fun and

368
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 1: do without do what I know what I can do.

369
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,200
Speaker 1: You know, going to Temple basically knowing that I was

370
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: gonna be in a in a starting line up playing

371
00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: with those guys like Mike and Chris. They definitely taught

372
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:42,360
Speaker 1: me things that I never would have know even imagined

373
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:43,879
Speaker 1: that I would have learned it from them guys. And

374
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 1: they worked after again, how they come to the game

375
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 1: and come to practice and show up every day, just

376
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,159
Speaker 1: going out there and and sticking to my guns, you know,

377
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,600
Speaker 1: even when it was kind of slow in the beginning

378
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: of the season, and then knowing they pick up to

379
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 1: you know, really towards the end of the season. That's

380
00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,240
Speaker 1: just another thing, like you know, just and mentally mentally

381
00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,879
Speaker 1: strong through it all and keep pushing and keep gunning

382
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 1: and on something good is gonna come out of every

383
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,679
Speaker 1: each and every time. What do you think about the

384
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: guy is gonna be throwing the football? Of course, that's

385
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: Sam Donald, twenty two years old. And when he's had

386
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,359
Speaker 1: time to throw the football shot, he's been very accurate,

387
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 1: especially on those vertical strikes down the field. Oh yeah, man,

388
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: he definitely likes out. Man. I'm I'm, I'm I'm really excited.

389
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: You know. It's crazy that I'm always watching videos at

390
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: night and seeing, you know, all the great throws that

391
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: he made, and I'm just I'm just a streaming inside it.

392
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: And you know, I know he's a. He's a great player,

393
00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 1: you know, you know that before even coming to this team.

394
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: Just his bility that he makes to put the ball

395
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,520
Speaker 1: in places where you can only make the play, and

396
00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 1: and it's abitity to even get out of the pocket,

397
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: just like crazy. So I can't wait. Man, How much

398
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 1: did it mean to you that Joe Douglas, a guy

399
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 1: who scouted you back in Baltimore, is the GM of

400
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 1: the New York Jets, And also Chad Alexander, who was

401
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: there for a long stint in Baltimore, is now the

402
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:04,800
Speaker 1: Jets Director of player personnelity. It means a lot. It's

403
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,159
Speaker 1: almost feel like a kind of like a home coming.

404
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 1: I can't wait to get back to work with those guys,

405
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:12,879
Speaker 1: you know, and I'm glad to be in this organization

00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:22,920
Speaker 1: is ahead of you in your career? Still young? You've

409
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:26,240
Speaker 1: had a number of stops, But if you look at

410
00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,320
Speaker 1: what you did at the end of the last season

411
00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 1: and your skill set, there's a lot of thought there

412
00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:38,320
Speaker 1: that people think, Hey, listen, he hasn't even begun to

413
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 1: reach his ceiling yet. Oh most definitely. I know, I

414
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 1: know in some great things you know, coming special for

415
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 1: this season and you know, for many years after this,

416
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:50,679
Speaker 1: and I'm just excited, man, to get to work, and

417
00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,040
Speaker 1: I know that it's really just the beginning. You know.

418
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,000
Speaker 1: Last year was just really again for a sneak peek,

419
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: and you know, I feel like this year is gonna

420
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 1: be definitely a season to remember. Not me individually, go

421
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: I feel like as a team, you know, I just

422
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 1: I just can't wait for shot. Finally, I want to

423
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 1: let you deliver a message to the fans. What would

424
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 1: you say the Jets nation about who they're getting a shot?

425
00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:20,040
Speaker 1: I would say that definitely being true teammate man and

426
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: a player that any and everything to stat the wins

427
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: up and definitely a big play a big playmaker and

428
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 1: who's really just gonna put it all on the line,

429
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,719
Speaker 1: you know, for for my teammates and the organization in general.

430
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 1: I lied. I do have one final question. The fastest

431
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 1: you were every time an authority? Was what? Man? I

432
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: got so many times that day thanks that I didn't

433
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 1: heard it was the high Ones? How ones is like crazy?

434
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,400
Speaker 1: I reported to a lot and you know, it's it's

435
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:52,480
Speaker 1: just a blessing, you know, to be able to go

436
00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 1: out then show that show that side of me. Well, congratulations,

437
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:00,920
Speaker 1: we look forward to seeing you up here and stay safe.

438
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 1: That message goes not only off to you, but your

439
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 1: family and your fronts to the Brashott Perriman joined the

440
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,640
Speaker 1: Jets just a couple of hours after Robbie Anderson departs

441
00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:17,439
Speaker 1: for the Carolina Panthers. And what do you think that

442
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 1: Perriman brings to this offense that maybe the Jets didn't

443
00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 1: have before he got here. I don't want to compare

444
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:26,119
Speaker 1: him to Robbie Anderson because there are different players. The

445
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:29,239
Speaker 1: one common trait that they have that they share that

446
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 1: is an exceptional trade is they're they're both burners. The

447
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: thing about Perryman, though he's a little bit bigger than Robbie,

448
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,920
Speaker 1: he's Robbie's maybe I don't know what he's listed at,

449
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 1: but he could be a hundred and seventy seventy five

450
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 1: pounds where Perryman six two over two hundred pounds. So

451
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,440
Speaker 1: he's a bigger guy who can fly. And the one

452
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,520
Speaker 1: thing there's a couple of things that you like about

453
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure the size speed combination is rare. Greens The

454
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 1: other thing is, as our Randy Lang pointed out on

455
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: New York Just dot Com in two thousand and eighteen

456
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,600
Speaker 1: and nineteen, he had fifty two catches and forty two

457
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 1: of them went for first downs. That's eighty one percent

458
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: of the time Brashod Perryman was catching the ball, he

459
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 1: was moving the sticks, So that's big time. It's Hampa.

460
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:22,480
Speaker 1: You could put Perryman on maybe the other team's third

461
00:24:22,640 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: cornerback because you had Mike Evans and Chris Godwin and

462
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 1: who are a fabulous pair, and those guys are just

463
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 1: a dynamic duo. But again, those guys were suffering from

464
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:37,360
Speaker 1: injuries late last year, so he didn't have the benefit

465
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 1: of that, and he was still able to put up

466
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:43,880
Speaker 1: big numbers. I think Sam Donald's gonna like having Perryman

467
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,000
Speaker 1: on the outside. Perryman was a good add and definitely

468
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: a good counter considering how quick they met made that

469
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:54,280
Speaker 1: move after Anderson agreed to terms with the Carolina Panthers.

470
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 1: I think Perriman is a good piece of this puzzle

471
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 1: moving forward, and Joe Douglas, of course, we'll have an

472
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 1: out opportunity if he wants to to add more players

473
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 1: to the team at the receiving position through the NFL

474
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: Draft in a couple of weeks, and that was another

475
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 1: edition of the Official Jets Podcast powered by Amazon Web Services.

476
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 1: He a stay safe and I'll talk to you tomorrow.

477
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 1: A H buddy
