WEBVTT - Start of OTAs, Chris Godwin & Cade Otton’s Evolution | Bucs Insider

0:00:05.600 --> 0:00:07.080
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Books Insider Live.

0:00:07.160 --> 0:00:09.799
<v Speaker 2>Casey Phillips here with senior writer and editor Scott Smith,

0:00:09.880 --> 0:00:12.600
<v Speaker 2>and we have OTAs to talk about.

0:00:12.840 --> 0:00:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Feels a little bit more football.

0:00:15.400 --> 0:00:20.120
<v Speaker 3>Letantom, Yes, it's phase one, Phase two great, but finally

0:00:20.160 --> 0:00:22.880
<v Speaker 3>now phase three and with you know the OTAs, the

0:00:22.960 --> 0:00:24.600
<v Speaker 3>of the Vets, you have the rookies all out it's

0:00:24.600 --> 0:00:26.920
<v Speaker 3>our first chance to kind of get a look at.

0:00:27.040 --> 0:00:27.760
<v Speaker 4>Looks like real pros.

0:00:27.960 --> 0:00:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it looks more like real practice.

0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Your first time to see the Vets and the rookies

0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:32.280
<v Speaker 2>all out there together after.

0:00:32.320 --> 0:00:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Rookie mini camp.

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:35.479
<v Speaker 2>It's just to me it always feels like kind of

0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:38.400
<v Speaker 2>the real start of the next season a little bit,

0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:40.640
<v Speaker 2>and so I know that we have a lot to

0:00:40.640 --> 0:00:42.800
<v Speaker 2>get to because of that. We also have a trivia

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:46.080
<v Speaker 2>question like we do every week now, so let's hear it.

0:00:46.080 --> 0:00:46.600
<v Speaker 4>Take it away.

0:00:47.400 --> 0:00:49.920
<v Speaker 5>I like to make the trivia question something relating to

0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:51.320
<v Speaker 5>something we're going to talk about. So we're going to

0:00:51.360 --> 0:00:53.240
<v Speaker 5>talk about kay Otten and Titans a little bit later.

0:00:53.280 --> 0:00:56.320
<v Speaker 5>So the question is Kate Otten's forty two receptions in

0:00:56.400 --> 0:00:59.440
<v Speaker 5>twenty twenty two were the second most in Buccaneer's history

0:00:59.440 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 5>by a tight end. In his rookie season, who holds

0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:04.960
<v Speaker 5>the team record for most receptions by a rookie tight end.

0:01:05.160 --> 0:01:06.839
<v Speaker 1>Rookie tight end most receptions?

0:01:06.840 --> 0:01:09.240
<v Speaker 2>All right, So if you know the answer to this,

0:01:09.640 --> 0:01:13.039
<v Speaker 2>please leave it underneath the comments underneath our live video.

0:01:13.120 --> 0:01:14.280
<v Speaker 1>We will try to see.

0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:15.880
<v Speaker 2>If anyone gets it right later on give you a

0:01:15.920 --> 0:01:17.319
<v Speaker 2>shout out on the show if we see it.

0:01:17.360 --> 0:01:19.000
<v Speaker 1>So again, that is your question.

0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 2>Leave your answer in the comments underneath our live video

0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:25.160
<v Speaker 2>on Facebook. So for now, let's talk a little bit

0:01:25.200 --> 0:01:26.840
<v Speaker 2>about Chris Godwin, because, as we said, we've got the

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:28.560
<v Speaker 2>rookies out there, we've got the vets, and it is

0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:31.039
<v Speaker 2>so funny now to think of Godwin as like such

0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:32.720
<v Speaker 2>a vet and he's been here for so long that

0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:35.240
<v Speaker 2>out there with everybody that this is the guy one

0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:37.360
<v Speaker 2>of the you know. Now with this new offense, new

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 2>offensive coordinator, Godwin is the elder statesman out there, and

0:01:41.360 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 2>so it'll be interesting to see not only him, of

0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:45.840
<v Speaker 2>course he's great in a leadership role, but now with

0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:48.920
<v Speaker 2>a new offensive coordinator, him coming off an injury, what

0:01:48.960 --> 0:01:51.160
<v Speaker 2>are our expectations for him this year and what that

0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:51.760
<v Speaker 2>could look like.

0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:53.080
<v Speaker 4>He was actually laughing about that too.

0:01:53.080 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 5>He said he came in one day and some of

0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:57.320
<v Speaker 5>the other vets weren't there, and he's looking around. He's like,

0:01:57.600 --> 0:01:59.440
<v Speaker 5>I'm like the old guy now, and I don't feel

0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:01.000
<v Speaker 5>like an old guy. Don't feel like a young guy.

0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:04.480
<v Speaker 5>But Chris Godwin, one of the things he said when

0:02:04.480 --> 0:02:06.360
<v Speaker 5>he spoke to the media on Tuesday that I loved

0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:09.160
<v Speaker 5>was he said he thinks he's very close to being

0:02:09.240 --> 0:02:12.120
<v Speaker 5>back to the peak form he was at before his

0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:13.920
<v Speaker 5>knee injury in December of twenty twenty one.

0:02:14.040 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 4>Now, remember we're.

0:02:15.080 --> 0:02:17.560
<v Speaker 5>Talking about a guy who had that injury in December

0:02:17.919 --> 0:02:22.040
<v Speaker 5>December nineteenth, had surgery on January fifth or something like that,

0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:25.200
<v Speaker 5>and was back on game on Week one of the

0:02:25.200 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 5>twenty twenty two season, and then, despite missing a couple

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:30.520
<v Speaker 5>of games, had one hundred and four catches, which was

0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.320
<v Speaker 5>just too short of the team record for a single superhuman.

0:02:33.400 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>It's absolutely yeah.

0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:37.120
<v Speaker 4>He was fantastic last year. He really was.

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:39.600
<v Speaker 5>But the offense, as we know, was a lot of

0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:44.720
<v Speaker 5>quick passes, which played into him playing out of the slot,

0:02:43.440 --> 0:02:47.840
<v Speaker 5>and so as you see here, his yards per catch

0:02:47.880 --> 0:02:49.760
<v Speaker 5>were by far his lowest of his career. And what

0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:52.200
<v Speaker 5>we have here is sort of the evolution of how

0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:54.880
<v Speaker 5>Chris Godwin's role in the offense has gone since his

0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:57.359
<v Speaker 5>rookie season. If you look in the leftmost column there,

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.280
<v Speaker 5>you see the differences between the percentage of his plays

0:03:01.360 --> 0:03:04.520
<v Speaker 5>in the out wide and in the slot. And the

0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:06.440
<v Speaker 5>reason those don't add up to one hundred is because

0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:09.000
<v Speaker 5>there's other things like in the backfield or lined up tight.

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.480
<v Speaker 5>But for the most part, that's most of his snaps.

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:14.040
<v Speaker 5>And look at that from seventy sixty seven percent. Early

0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:16.720
<v Speaker 5>in his career he was playing mostly outside and then

0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.800
<v Speaker 5>twenty nineteen was the arrival of Bruce Arians and that staff,

0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:21.880
<v Speaker 5>of course, and he started playing a lot more in

0:03:21.880 --> 0:03:24.120
<v Speaker 5>the slot. Now, if you look at his yards per

0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:28.120
<v Speaker 5>catch and his route depth, you see those gradually go down.

0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:31.160
<v Speaker 5>But we see from those first three seasons in particular,

0:03:31.280 --> 0:03:34.000
<v Speaker 5>especially twenty nineteen, even though he's playing a lot more

0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 5>on of the slot, this is a guy that can

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:36.920
<v Speaker 5>get downfield.

0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:03:37.280 --> 0:03:39.960
<v Speaker 5>And that's what Dave Canals and Brad didzig No about

0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:43.200
<v Speaker 5>Chris Godwin. Yes, he's fantastic in the slot. We're very

0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:45.440
<v Speaker 5>lucky to have a big slot who can dominate in that.

0:03:45.680 --> 0:03:48.160
<v Speaker 5>But he can also really help you on the outside.

0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:50.640
<v Speaker 5>He can get deep if you think about the first

0:03:50.680 --> 0:03:53.680
<v Speaker 5>touchdown in Chris Godwin's career, it was that in the

0:03:53.760 --> 0:03:55.800
<v Speaker 5>last game of his rookie season that won the New

0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:58.960
<v Speaker 5>Orleans game. James Winston was probably supposed to throw a

0:03:59.000 --> 0:04:01.280
<v Speaker 5>you know, Chris Gowin was probably running just a clear

0:04:01.320 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 5>out round on a fly and Jamis was probably supposed

0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 5>to throw it underneath to get some yards for the

0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:07.440
<v Speaker 5>game winning field goal. Instead, you threw it a top

0:04:07.480 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 5>to Chris Godlin for the touchdown. And that's the kind

0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:13.119
<v Speaker 5>of play that Chris Godwin is capable of making. And

0:04:13.160 --> 0:04:14.840
<v Speaker 5>now they're going to use him more in that role.

0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:16.520
<v Speaker 5>They'll still play in the slot, but he's going to

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:18.280
<v Speaker 5>go back to playing more on the outside. And I

0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:20.760
<v Speaker 5>think you'll probably see his route depth in his yards

0:04:20.760 --> 0:04:22.520
<v Speaker 5>per kerry go out, I mean yards per catch go up.

0:04:22.560 --> 0:04:23.479
<v Speaker 1>That's going to be interesting.

0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:25.880
<v Speaker 2>And then another person that I know hopes to be

0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:27.800
<v Speaker 2>a big part of the offense, Kate ot and you

0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 2>mentioned earlier.

0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:29.360
<v Speaker 1>We wanted to discuss him.

0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:31.479
<v Speaker 2>He spoke to the media and you know, now you

0:04:31.520 --> 0:04:34.000
<v Speaker 2>have no Cambray, you have no Gronk. So the tight

0:04:34.120 --> 0:04:37.400
<v Speaker 2>end group and leader is definitely going to look different

0:04:37.440 --> 0:04:40.120
<v Speaker 2>than it has in a long time here at the Buccaneers.

0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:43.480
<v Speaker 2>But Kate Aten had some really big moments in some

0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:46.680
<v Speaker 2>big games last year and as a rookie, which is incredible.

0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:49.240
<v Speaker 2>So what do we feel like expectations could be for him?

0:04:49.279 --> 0:04:51.840
<v Speaker 2>Does he seem like the guy that is ready to

0:04:52.240 --> 0:04:54.360
<v Speaker 2>be you know, the number one guy in that room.

0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:58.120
<v Speaker 5>Did you hear him talking about meeting Gronk? Did you

0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:01.200
<v Speaker 5>hear what they said they did? No, you probably think, like,

0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:02.560
<v Speaker 5>smash beer Ken's on their head.

0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Or well, if it was Gronk and Je it.

0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:07.520
<v Speaker 5>Was at Cam's house. They played board games. I love

0:05:07.560 --> 0:05:08.640
<v Speaker 5>that board games with Gronk.

0:05:08.720 --> 0:05:09.839
<v Speaker 1>Board games with Gronk.

0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 4>Kate said he didn't win, so Gronk might be pretty good.

0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:14.800
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't be surprised. He seems like the guy that's

0:05:14.800 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 1>just randomly good at everything.

0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:18.240
<v Speaker 5>In a way, kid wants to be like Gronk in

0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:20.560
<v Speaker 5>that like him and a couple guys like George Kittle,

0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:24.200
<v Speaker 5>he wants to be that true why two way every

0:05:24.240 --> 0:05:27.119
<v Speaker 5>down tight end that you trust him in the running

0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:29.520
<v Speaker 5>game to block to seel loft that defensive end on

0:05:29.560 --> 0:05:31.680
<v Speaker 5>the strong side, and you trust him to beat the

0:05:31.720 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 5>safety going down the seams and that's what he wants

0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:36.400
<v Speaker 5>to be and honestly, we saw a lot of that

0:05:36.440 --> 0:05:39.719
<v Speaker 5>in his rookie season. Nobody's putting him in the group

0:05:39.760 --> 0:05:42.200
<v Speaker 5>of George Kittle and Travis Kelcey and Gronk right now,

0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:46.640
<v Speaker 5>But in terms of filling a role where you could

0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:48.640
<v Speaker 5>be on the field for eighty percent of snaps like

0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:50.760
<v Speaker 5>Gronk was, he's almost there already.

0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:53.479
<v Speaker 4>And the other thing about this is that.

0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:58.880
<v Speaker 5>He's probably going to get more opportunities in twelve personnel,

0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:01.560
<v Speaker 5>which is two tight end sets, and they drafted Pain

0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:03.960
<v Speaker 5>Durham probably in order to have more options for that,

0:06:04.120 --> 0:06:06.120
<v Speaker 5>because if you look at this day, we have the

0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:11.360
<v Speaker 5>Seahawks former Seahawks coach as our offensive coordinator now, Dave Canalis,

0:06:11.360 --> 0:06:14.600
<v Speaker 5>and last year the Seahawks ran twelve personnel on twenty

0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:16.880
<v Speaker 5>nine point five percent of their snaps, which is third

0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:18.360
<v Speaker 5>most in the league. And you see the difference between

0:06:18.400 --> 0:06:20.479
<v Speaker 5>that and what the Buccaneers did and what the NFL

0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:23.400
<v Speaker 5>average did is so I think you're going to see

0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:26.000
<v Speaker 5>more of that, and that's just as Kate himself said,

0:06:26.040 --> 0:06:27.360
<v Speaker 5>that's just more opportunities for.

0:06:27.320 --> 0:06:29.720
<v Speaker 2>Them, okay, and I love when this happens. We have

0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:35.080
<v Speaker 2>breaking breaking news. But our one of our producers just

0:06:35.120 --> 0:06:37.120
<v Speaker 2>handed this. It's I mean breaking news is you know,

0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:39.479
<v Speaker 2>maybe a generous term. But in the off season we

0:06:39.520 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 2>can be generous is what we consider breaking news. We

0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:45.920
<v Speaker 2>officially have the times for our preseason games and days,

0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:48.120
<v Speaker 2>so if anybody was planning on making a trip to

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:50.320
<v Speaker 2>one of those booking tickets, we finally have because they

0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:53.680
<v Speaker 2>always released the regular season schedule, and we know who

0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:55.760
<v Speaker 2>we're playing in the preseason, but we don't ever really

0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:59.159
<v Speaker 2>know when all of that stuff. So we now know

0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:03.480
<v Speaker 2>that we were playing these Steelers August eleventh at seven

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:05.000
<v Speaker 2>pm at home.

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 4>That's a Friday.

0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Sure, I don't have a calendar in front of me.

0:07:08.760 --> 0:07:11.200
<v Speaker 2>The next it doesn't say the day, just a good

0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:15.080
<v Speaker 2>dated okay. So then we have the New York Jets

0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:19.040
<v Speaker 2>on the road August nineteenth at seven thirty, So if

0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:20.720
<v Speaker 2>you said the eleventh, you thought was a Friday, so

0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:24.280
<v Speaker 2>that would make the nineteenth Saturday. And then at home

0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:28.120
<v Speaker 2>again against the Baltimore Ravens for the third preseason game

0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 2>at seven o'clock August twenty sixth. So there are your

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.720
<v Speaker 2>preseason times, dates, schedule, all of that. So hopefully we'll

0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 2>be able to see a lot of you out there

0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:39.440
<v Speaker 2>at those games. I wanted to go ahead and give

0:07:39.440 --> 0:07:41.760
<v Speaker 2>people another chance at the trivia question in case people

0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:42.920
<v Speaker 2>tuned in a little late.

0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:45.120
<v Speaker 5>So hit us with that, all right, repeating the trivia

0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:47.440
<v Speaker 5>question from earlier, because we're talking about Kate Atton a

0:07:47.440 --> 0:07:50.720
<v Speaker 5>lot today. Caate Otten's forty two receptions in twenty twenty

0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:53.400
<v Speaker 5>two were the second most in Buccaneer's history by a

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:56.760
<v Speaker 5>tight end in his rookie season. Who holds the team

0:07:56.800 --> 0:07:59.880
<v Speaker 5>record for most receptions by a rookie tight end.

0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.200
<v Speaker 2>I like it, okay, So I know that we are

0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:04.840
<v Speaker 2>Also we talked about we're in OTAs we're in was

0:08:04.880 --> 0:08:07.280
<v Speaker 2>also called phase three of the off season programs. So

0:08:07.560 --> 0:08:09.640
<v Speaker 2>take people through a little bit about what that means

0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:12.160
<v Speaker 2>and where we're at in the off season schedule as

0:08:12.200 --> 0:08:14.520
<v Speaker 2>they progress through to more real football.

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.280
<v Speaker 5>Well you mentioned it earlier. It's more like a real practice.

0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:19.480
<v Speaker 5>Now they're allowed to do offense versus defense. They weren't

0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:21.200
<v Speaker 5>allowed to do that before. In the first phase is

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:24.440
<v Speaker 5>just basically working out and classroom stuff. And second phase

0:08:25.040 --> 0:08:27.200
<v Speaker 5>who could do individual drills and things like that, But

0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:29.800
<v Speaker 5>now they can have what looks like a recognizable football practice,

0:08:29.800 --> 0:08:33.320
<v Speaker 5>there's no contact, no pads, so you don't get that

0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:36.559
<v Speaker 5>until training camp. But you do have receivers running against

0:08:36.640 --> 0:08:39.760
<v Speaker 5>cornerbacks and so on quarterbacks trying to complete passes to

0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:42.920
<v Speaker 5>guys that are actually being covered, and that's what you

0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:45.360
<v Speaker 5>have in OTAs, and you get a total of ten OTAs.

0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:48.440
<v Speaker 5>Here's the schedule, which we've already started, so we're at

0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 5>the end of that first line there, the first three OTAs,

0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:52.960
<v Speaker 5>and then next week they'll be three more.

0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:55.120
<v Speaker 4>The week after that they'll be four more. All those

0:08:55.160 --> 0:08:55.880
<v Speaker 4>are voluntary.

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:58.520
<v Speaker 5>Now I counted, and I believe we had eighty of

0:08:58.559 --> 0:09:01.079
<v Speaker 5>the ninety players on the right here. A couple of

0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:03.120
<v Speaker 5>them are a little banged up and warn't playing, but

0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:06.240
<v Speaker 5>they were here on Tuesday when we started, so we've

0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:08.840
<v Speaker 5>had very good turnoff for that. But they are voluntary.

0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:12.719
<v Speaker 5>Some guys choose to pursue their own regimens away from

0:09:12.720 --> 0:09:15.439
<v Speaker 5>the team, and that's totally fine. And then on June

0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:17.760
<v Speaker 5>thirteenth through fifteen is the three day mini camp, which

0:09:17.800 --> 0:09:20.760
<v Speaker 5>actually is mandatory for all players, including veterans.

0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:23.600
<v Speaker 4>So that's what's left. And then after that it's the

0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:24.800
<v Speaker 4>big break before training camp.

0:09:25.040 --> 0:09:28.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay, well, also we I know had some rule changes

0:09:29.559 --> 0:09:32.080
<v Speaker 2>voted on this last week, So what if any of

0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 2>those are going to pertain to the average fan watching Again, Well, the.

0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:37.480
<v Speaker 5>Two big ones are they brought back the inactive third

0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:40.079
<v Speaker 5>quarterback rule, which was it's not exactly the same as

0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:41.920
<v Speaker 5>the previous rule, but it's very close, which was in

0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:44.720
<v Speaker 5>effect from ninety one through twenty ten. So you know,

0:09:44.760 --> 0:09:46.720
<v Speaker 5>you get it used to be forty six, so you

0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:49.160
<v Speaker 5>get forty eight active players, and you have to name

0:09:49.360 --> 0:09:51.480
<v Speaker 5>five to seven inactives depending on how many you have

0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:54.440
<v Speaker 5>on your roster, you know, in game day elevations and

0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:58.160
<v Speaker 5>things like that. Now you can still do that, but

0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:01.120
<v Speaker 5>one of your inactive players can be a quarterback that

0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:04.760
<v Speaker 5>you designate as your third quarterback, and if your first

0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:06.560
<v Speaker 5>two guys are out of the game due to injury

0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:10.000
<v Speaker 5>or ejection, then that guy can come in and play.

0:10:10.520 --> 0:10:13.280
<v Speaker 4>And even though he was labeled inactive to start the.

0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:15.560
<v Speaker 5>Game under the old rule, once he came in, if

0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:17.679
<v Speaker 5>it was in the first three quarters, the first two

0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:20.200
<v Speaker 5>guys were then ineligible to come back into the game.

0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:23.120
<v Speaker 5>But now if an injured quarterback goes out and that

0:10:23.160 --> 0:10:26.920
<v Speaker 5>third quarterback is activated, if he is then ruled that

0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:27.480
<v Speaker 5>he can come.

0:10:27.360 --> 0:10:29.720
<v Speaker 4>Back into the game. He can come back into the game. Okay,

0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:30.280
<v Speaker 4>slight difference.

0:10:30.280 --> 0:10:31.880
<v Speaker 5>So, and then the other one is the new kickoff

0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:34.679
<v Speaker 5>touchback rule, which if you've watched on college football you've

0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:36.840
<v Speaker 5>seen a lot of it. You can fair catch the

0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:40.000
<v Speaker 5>ball anywhere on the field behind your own twenty five

0:10:40.080 --> 0:10:43.000
<v Speaker 5>yard line, and if you do and you fair catch it,

0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:45.200
<v Speaker 5>the ball's placed at the twenty five So it's just

0:10:45.760 --> 0:10:48.640
<v Speaker 5>more of an effort really, Honestly, all of these changes

0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:50.760
<v Speaker 5>to the kickoff rule in recent years have been to

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:53.520
<v Speaker 5>pretty much make fewer of them because it has been

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:55.560
<v Speaker 5>deemed the most dangerous playing the game, and it's about

0:10:55.559 --> 0:10:56.200
<v Speaker 5>player safety.

0:10:56.280 --> 0:10:58.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm slowly wish. We are always a big fans of

0:10:58.200 --> 0:10:59.400
<v Speaker 2>all right, so we're closing out here.

0:10:59.480 --> 0:11:01.760
<v Speaker 1>Give us our answer to our trivia question.

0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:04.000
<v Speaker 5>Okay, are we gonna put it on the screen? I

0:11:04.000 --> 0:11:06.240
<v Speaker 5>can do it for remember, Oh, there it is. The

0:11:06.320 --> 0:11:09.800
<v Speaker 5>answer is Tim Wright, who had fifty four catches in

0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:11.800
<v Speaker 5>twenty thirteen. And Tim Wright was a little bit of

0:11:11.840 --> 0:11:15.160
<v Speaker 5>an interesting story in that, you know, Greg Shannon was

0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:17.080
<v Speaker 5>the head coach then from Rutgers, and he was one

0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:17.319
<v Speaker 5>of his.

0:11:17.280 --> 0:11:18.080
<v Speaker 4>Players of Rutgers.

0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:20.680
<v Speaker 5>He was actually a big wide receiver at Rutgers, but

0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:23.360
<v Speaker 5>the Bucks brought him in and converted him to tight

0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:25.840
<v Speaker 5>end and he had a big season catching passes in

0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:28.120
<v Speaker 5>his rookie season. The other interesting thing about Tim Wright

0:11:28.160 --> 0:11:30.439
<v Speaker 5>is he's a rare player that the Bucaneers have actually

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:31.600
<v Speaker 5>traded away twice.

0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:33.960
<v Speaker 1>It's incredible, such an interesting.

0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:34.959
<v Speaker 4>It's a little too much of a story to tell,

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:36.960
<v Speaker 4>but the Bucks actually traded him twice twice.

0:11:37.000 --> 0:11:37.400
<v Speaker 1>I love that.

0:11:37.440 --> 0:11:37.760
<v Speaker 4>All right.

0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:38.760
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's going to do it for us on this

0:11:38.880 --> 0:11:41.160
<v Speaker 2>edition of Bucks Insider Live. Thanks for being with us.

0:11:41.160 --> 0:11:41.960
<v Speaker 2>We'll see you next week.
