Speaker 3: a sucker punch? The basketball equivalent of a sucker punch.

8
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:25,800
Speaker 3: It wasn't an actual punch.

9
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:29,400

Speaker 3: The Wings wins. Yes, the Wings in the WNBA. So

17
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 3: that's very cool.

18
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 2: I'm not shored up my WNBA logos and names yet.

19
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 2: I know Indiana Fever, I know New York Liberty, Chicago Sky.

20
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 3: Comments who don't exist anymore? So sad they got to

21

22
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 2: The comments. Come on, Yeah, bring back to comments. You

23
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 2: know what I found myself doing this weekend? They just

24
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 2: got me thinking about teams that we no longer have

25
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 2: in Houston. I watched some NHL this weekend in IROs.

26
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 2: Enjoyed the heck out to watch in the NHL. I

27
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 2: didn't get a chance to the Oilers and Stars, but

28
00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 2: thankfully the Dallas team got kicked out. They got beat

29
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,880
Speaker 2: out by Edmonton. So Connor McDavid go get a championship.

30
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 2: So it'll be the Floor Panthers and the Edmonton Oilers.

31
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 3: If you care about one of the Rangers. And then oh,

32
00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 3: you know what's coming tomorrow. This shows you how old

33
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 3: we are. Well, not you, but me, no me. I

34
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 3: graduated nineteen ninety four.

35
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that was the summer that I was when

36
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 2: I was graduating, was second semester at Brown. It was

37
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 2: also the stretch run for the New York Rangers, and

38
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 2: going to Brown, I knew a lot of Rangers fans

39
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 2: and and also the Rockets.

40
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: Doing their things.

41
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, and of course the Rockets would match up with

42
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 2: the New York Knicks, so I had a lot of

43
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:07,919
Speaker 2: fights with New York people.

44
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, during that summer or doing that spring before thirty

45
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:12,839
Speaker 1: years ago.

46
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 2: Thirty years ago, it was the last time New York

47
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,560
Speaker 2: Rangers have won the Stanley Cup and there's going to

48
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 2: be a thirty for thirty for them on Tuesday night.

49
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 2: I can't wait. Mark Messier was a big one. Yes,

50
00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 2: he was the and he guaranteed if Edmonton oiler. He

51
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 2: is It would have been cool to have those two

52
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 2: teams face.

53
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: It would have been nice.

54
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Speaker 2: But the Rangers couldn't get it done and the Panthers,

55
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 2: But Panthers are kind of kind of fun to watch.

56
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 3: But you you're right, Johnny, when you talk about Houston

57
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,359
Speaker 3: teams that no longer exist that need to come back,

58
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 3: the comments and the eras are going to be a

59
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 3: triple A. I'd take it. I'd like to go to

60
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 3: a hockey game out of cash.

61
00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be nice?

62
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 2: I love watching I love watching hockey. I love watching

63
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,839
Speaker 2: live hockey. I've said this story before. I think when

64
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: I was in college, I went to almost every hockey match,

65
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 2: both men's and women's at Brown. Yeah. I kind of

66
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 2: thought that at the time. My wife isn't listening, she's

67
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 2: not back till tomorrow. I kind of thought the goalie

68
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,679
Speaker 2: was hot for our hockey team, our women's hockey Yeah,

69
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:15,839
Speaker 2: name was Kate.

70
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, so yeah, so I'm surprised.

71
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean she was. She was cute anyways.

72
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 2: But I had a girlfriend at Brown and now I'm married,

73
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: so I can't say that. I guess, but I think

74
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,240
Speaker 2: I just did. But either way, I would go. I

75
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:34,240
Speaker 2: would go watch both men's and women's hockey teams play

76
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 2: at Brown. I never missed a game. I should say

77
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 2: I never missed a game. Whenever I could make it,

78
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 2: I would go. Sometimes we had, you know, football things

79
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 2: that would kind of keep us going from some of

80
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 2: the maybe the inn week stuff, but we I saw

81
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,640
Speaker 2: almost every game that was possibly played over those years.

82
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 2: So I don't love I love live hockey. I've seen

83
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: live hockey at the old Old Boston Garden, Old Boston

84
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 2: a long time ago.

85
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: So I would love for hockey to come back.

86
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 3: College hockey in the North is like college baseball in

87
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 3: the South.

88
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: That's correct. Yes, that's a good way putting it.

89
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 3: College baseball is huge, obviously, very huge right now. The

90
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 3: college hockey up north is a big sport.

91
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 2: It is a massive, massive sport. Now, some of the

92
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,359
Speaker 2: guys we got a chance to talk to today, those

93
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:21,160
Speaker 2: guys are from the North it so we talked with

94
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 2: them and we're gonna We're gonna go through that.

95
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: But today was what we call media days. Internal, internal,

96
00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:31,600
Speaker 1: and it's not right because our media friends are listening

97
00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:35,599
Speaker 1: with ye what yeah, missed out, missed out will come go.

98
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 2: No, it's it's just for us internally, it's for CBS

99
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 2: Sports and NBC are internal. Like all the different graphics

100
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,200
Speaker 2: and stuff you see on the scoreboard and the guys

101
00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 2: are raising their arm for the crowd to get loud.

102
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 2: We shoot all of that all on one day, and

103
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 2: in the process of doing that, the guys pop in

104
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 2: here for interview with Mark and I. Now we don't

105
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 2: get everybody because it's only a span of like four

106
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 2: or five hours, so we get a good number. Today

107
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,200
Speaker 2: we got twenty five players that we talked to. Two

108
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,520
Speaker 2: of them you're gonna hear a little bit later, and

109
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 2: you're gonna hear Tim Boyle with us.

110
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: He was fantastic. And we're also gonna catch up.

111
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 2: With former Washington Husky, former New England patriot.

112
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,039
Speaker 1: LA citizen Miles Bryant.

113
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,280
Speaker 2: A Sayla because my wife and daughter coming back from

114
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 2: La tomorrow, so that's gonna be fun.

115
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,239
Speaker 1: But Miles Bryant will join us a little later.

116
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 2: Five eight about Buck ninety stout, tough, really good football player,

117
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 2: plays a nickel, turns kicks, plays corners, safety, whatever you

118
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 2: want him to do, and he was. He was a

119
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 2: Nick Casario draft pick with the New England Patriots. So

120
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 2: it makes a little bit of sense. So we're here

121
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:50,440
Speaker 2: from Tim Boyle quarterback, defensive back Miles Bryant. But thirty

122
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:52,480
Speaker 2: thousand foot view mark before we kind of dive into

123
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 2: each guy, what'd you take out of sitting with the

124
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 2: guys today kind of learning about them? We got a

125
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 2: couple of rookies, we got a couple of vets, and

126
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:04,039
Speaker 2: we got the longest tenured Texan to ever put on

127
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:05,520
Speaker 2: a uniform, John Weeks as well.

128
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that they all fit in to what

129
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 3: Demiko Ryans is doing, that kind of.

130
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 1: Culture he has.

131
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 3: It's not like they're little Demico clones, although that would

132
00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,680
Speaker 3: be a good thing. That'd be a great thing to

133
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 3: have a fifty three man roster filled with Domico clones

134
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 3: at their particular position.

135
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,520
Speaker 1: And in some ways they are. But I think they

136
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:26,640
Speaker 1: all buy into.

137
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 3: What he's selling, what he's saying, what he's doing, and

138
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 3: I think he looks for like minded individuals. Nick does

139
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,720
Speaker 3: he does they agree on these things. They know it

140
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,239
Speaker 3: creates a really positive football culture. I know that word

141
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,680
Speaker 3: gets tossed around an awful lot. Maybe we tossed it

142
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 3: around too much. Maybe we don't do enough of it.

143
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 1: I don't know.

144
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 3: But they've got a good culture here and you can

145
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,799
Speaker 3: see it, you can hear it as we will unveil

146
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 3: these interviews over the next few weeks that we had today.

147
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,560
Speaker 3: It's not like you can sit down with every guy

148
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,799
Speaker 3: for an hour, you know. It's just they're pretty quick.

149
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 3: But they're really good, and we only enjoyed spending time

150
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 3: with each and every one of them.

151
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: Johnny.

152
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 3: There were no duds in this group that we had,

153
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 3: and not every player that we talked to will necessarily

154
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 3: be on the fifty three. But we got into the

155
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 3: guts of the seventy man roster, if you will, and

156
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 3: guys who are gonna make plays and have to make

157
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 3: plays for this team to be successful.

158
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 4: Yeah.

159
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: Absolutely.

160
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 2: We started with Charlie Heck and it dawn on me

161
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,239
Speaker 2: with Charlie Heck. This is year five.

162
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: It feels like he was drafted yesterday.

163
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, But Charlie said something I thought was really interesting

164
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 2: because we used to talk about this, and I talked

165
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 2: about this a lot with John Grenard because John was

166
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,160
Speaker 2: making plays last year and I just felt like, you know,

167
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:43,119
Speaker 2: just the what's rightway is saying this, the smooth nature

168
00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 2: of Demico Ryans. I don't know if that's raightway is

169
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,680
Speaker 2: saying it, but just settling down, just like okay, relax.

170
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 2: Just having that and his staff here, I think really

171
00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 2: helped some of those guys that had gone through so

172
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 2: many coaches and.

173
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 1: Things like that.

174
00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,160
Speaker 2: Charlie was like, yeah, man, I've been through four head

175
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 2: coaches since I've been here. It's amazing, and decided to

176
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,840
Speaker 2: come back. Knew he had an opportunity, and I thought, man,

177
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 2: he's been five years at four head coaches and finally, finally,

178
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 2: No matter how long Charlie Hack plays, the thought is

179
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,800
Speaker 2: that Demico Ryans would be the head coach for that

180
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 2: particular period.

181
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: But that's what stood out to me.

182
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 2: A guy that's been here for five years, Man, what

183
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 2: has that guy seen and yet still really composed and

184
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 2: very excited about what this team's got.

185
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, my biggest takeaway was he knows his assignment. He

186
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 3: knows what he has to do to be successful on

187
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 3: this team and for the team to work well with

188
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 3: him being a part of it as a swing tackle,

189
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 3: as somebody who can fill in and look have to

190
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 3: start on.

191
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: Occasion, He'll be ready.

192
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,680
Speaker 3: He helps to be ready, but he knows his role

193
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 3: and he does want to be a part of it

194
00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 3: very bad.

195
00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 1: Absolutely.

196
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 2: We talked to Jerry Patterson, man, we've got this infusion

197
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:49,079
Speaker 2: of domers.

198
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 1: Which who was it that asked what a domer was?

199
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 1: Who is it that somebody.

200
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,439
Speaker 2: I mentioned that to somebody and they're like, oh, I

201
00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,319
Speaker 2: think it was Kendrick Green, who, by the way, Kendrick

202
00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 2: Green was one of favorite interviews. He was really really

203
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 2: fun to, very honest Kendrick Green. Yeah, and those two

204
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 2: are kind of tied end that, Jared Patterson and Kendrick Green,

205
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 2: because you know who's gonna play left guard?

206
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: Is it Kenyan Green? Is it Kendrick Green?

207
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 2: Does Jared Patterson move over to left guard? Does Jews

208
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 2: move back over to left guard? I know that one

209
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 2: to me seems look, nothing is ever set in stone.

210
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:23,679
Speaker 2: I mean we kind of felt like Juice was going

211
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 2: to be the center last year. I think it's hurt

212
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 2: in the last preseason game and then doesn't play center

213
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:28,040
Speaker 2: all year.

214
00:09:28,360 --> 00:09:31,719
Speaker 3: Patterson I mean, the biggest takeaway from Patterson was here,

215
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 3: he is starting to start the season and he felt like, look,

216
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 3: it's not like icing on the cake here. But he

217
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 3: knew that the expectations were not high, but he far

218
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 3: surpassed them.

219
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 1: And I asked.

220
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,960
Speaker 2: Him, what was your welcome to the NFL moment? What

221
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 2: was your welcome to the NFL moment? He said, well,

222
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:55,839
Speaker 2: it was week two against one of the big rivals

223
00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:58,000
Speaker 2: of the Houston Texans.

224
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 1: We'll save that for you later. That's a tea.

225
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 2: We'll save that for you a little later down the road,

226
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 2: but you want to definitely hear that. And here's the

227
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 2: other thing I took a seeing Jared Patterson. He looks

228
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,120
Speaker 2: stronger and bigger than he was last year when he

229
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,920
Speaker 2: walked in. And I think that was I always say

230
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,040
Speaker 2: that's a theme throughout and yeah, okay, guys working out

231
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 2: all this thing, they should get bigger and stronger. But

232
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:22,319
Speaker 2: to see a rookie come in here and then I

233
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 2: don't want to say transform his body, but to see

234
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,680
Speaker 2: what he's changed into and how strong he looks, I

235
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:29,319
Speaker 2: think that's a that's a big feather in the cap

236
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,720
Speaker 2: for Jared Patterson. But I was sitting next to him.

237
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,440
Speaker 2: You're on the opposite side. I was sitting next to him,

238
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 2: and I thought, dang, he's he's really kind of maybe

239
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,360
Speaker 2: not packed on pounds, but he's packed on some strength

240
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 2: and some muscle.

241
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 3: Uh, you know, you brought up Kendrick Green, and we'll

242
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 3: do that now. Because my biggest takeaway from him was

243
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 3: I don't want to say he expects to start at guard,

244
00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 3: but he kind of does. Yeah, like that's his goal.

245
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 3: He's out to achieve it, right, He doesn't care who

246
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 3: was drafted where. He loves his teammates, but he wants

247
00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 3: to be the guy.

248
00:10:58,480 --> 00:10:59,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was.

249
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 2: He was great to talk to you. And the fact

250
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 2: that he kind of said it straight. Because when he

251
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,320
Speaker 2: was at Illinois played for Lovely Smith, recruited and played

252
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 2: for Lovey Smith's entire career there, he played guard most

253
00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:13,480
Speaker 2: of the time, but there were probably three or four

254
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 2: games of center that he played. And so when he

255
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 2: gets drafted by Pittsburgh, they're like, oh, you're gonna play center,

256
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,920
Speaker 2: and he's like, no, you know, my natural position is

257
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,839
Speaker 2: at guard. So I kind of been thinking that center

258
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,079
Speaker 2: center going to be the spot for him. But when

259
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,480
Speaker 2: he said that, hey, my natural position is guard. That's

260
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: when kind of a light went off for me, like, oh,

261
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:38,520
Speaker 2: that makes a lot more sense because Kendrick. For people

262
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:42,199
Speaker 2: that were paying attention Kendrick coming out of Pittsburgh man Pittsford,

263
00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 2: people were not saying good things about him, but he

264
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 2: was kind of a fish out of water playing center

265
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 2: in some sense. He comes here and I know immediately

266
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,199
Speaker 2: people here heard what was going on in Pittsburgh and

267
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,520
Speaker 2: are like, just immediately would not give him the time

268
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 2: of day. That he goes out and he fistfights and

269
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,080
Speaker 2: he's good in his own game, and he's really strong,

270
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,559
Speaker 2: and I'm telling you that dude is nothing but muscle.

271
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:09,199
Speaker 2: I'm really curious and excited to see what Kendrick's gonna do.

272
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,560
Speaker 1: We're not gonna see himduring mini camp. He's a physical presence.

273
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,680
Speaker 2: He's a physical presence, no doubt, and a very fun interview.

274
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 2: Loves Houston, which I without his music to my ears,

275
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,360
Speaker 2: he just he absolutely loves Houston.

276
00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 3: And what about Killian zero, I got I got that

277
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:24,840
Speaker 3: pronunciation wrong.

278
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,200
Speaker 1: I thought last year zero, but it's zero. Yeah.

279
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:33,200
Speaker 2: However, you say German way big z okay, and he's big.

280
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 2: I mean he's enormous. He's six ' six broad, I'm

281
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,760
Speaker 2: broad shoulders. I mean he fills out the doorframe when

282
00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 2: he walks in. And I thought last year, if you

283
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 2: think back to last year's training camp, we saw him

284
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,280
Speaker 2: throughout and with guys getting banged up at tackle. You know,

285
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 2: Titus got hurt, and then Larrmy got a little bit

286
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,160
Speaker 2: banged up, and then there was lineman going down. All

287
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 2: the time you look up and solidly with the two's

288
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 2: Killian is playing left tackle. Then he plays the game

289
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,000
Speaker 2: against the Patriots and plays a lot, and I remember

290
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:11,120
Speaker 2: watching it back, thinking, but he did pretty good job.

291
00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 2: Has that week with the Dolphins, things are seemingly trending

292
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,959
Speaker 2: in a really good direction, like, Hey, this you know,

293
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 2: undrafted german who's you know, didn't really play football growing up,

294
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,199
Speaker 2: played soccer, really has only been playing football for about

295
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 2: five or six years. This guy's gonna make the team.

296
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 2: He's gonna end up being one of the swing tackles

297
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 2: until Charlie can get back.

298
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: They got something.

299
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:36,120
Speaker 2: And then he gets hurt in the Dolphins game, yep,

300
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 2: And I just remember feeling gutted, gutted for him. Oh man,

301
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,839
Speaker 2: it's gonna miss the whole season. You have this category.

302
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 2: You talk about this all the time. Do not forget

303
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 2: about me guys. Killian Zerror is one of those guys

304
00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 2: to not forget about because he's got a ton of talent.

305
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 2: He played soccer growing up, he's got great feet, and

306
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 2: he is enormous, enormous. I'm really excited to see my training.

307
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,840
Speaker 3: Because another do not forget about me guy, and this

308
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 3: is in the elite category of do not forget about me,

309
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 3: or in the upper echelon category, and that is actually

310
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,600
Speaker 3: the first player we talked to today which you forgot about.

311
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:14,960
Speaker 1: That would be Bobby Treebby Trees.

312
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 3: Dumber Woods is don't forget about me guy big time

313
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 3: because he is we always call him third down conversion machine,

314
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 3: and visiting with him, you get the feeling there's just

315
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 3: gonna be such a sad day coming if all these

316
00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 3: guys stay healthy, people you know are gonna go and

317
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 3: it's gonna be tough to say goodbye to them. And

318
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 3: the players you do end up with are gonna be awesome,

319
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 3: but it's gonna be tough because these guys are putting

320
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,240
Speaker 3: the time and they're really good, and Robert Woods is

321
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 3: one of them. I hope Robert Woods makes the team,

322
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 3: but I want the very best guys to make the team.

323
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:50,000
Speaker 3: I hope he's one of them. You just never know

324
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 3: how it's all gonna play out. Because they do have

325
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,400
Speaker 3: so much talent there right now, it's gonna be a

326
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:55,320
Speaker 3: numbers game for some.

327
00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 2: I mean this wide receiver group. I mean, we've talked

328
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 2: about this, about this, the talent that is on this

329
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 2: particular squad in reference to other years to reference throughout

330
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 2: the NFL, you can look at these, I mean this

331
00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 2: receiver group. We talked to Steven Simms. That was fun

332
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 2: to talk to him. We talked about the return he

333
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 2: had against the Baltimore Ravens in the playoff game. It

334
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 2: was just fun hearing it from his perspective, you know,

335
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 2: seeing seeing him then hearing him talk about just don't

336
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 2: let the punter catch you. Don't let the punter catch you.

337
00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:30,440
Speaker 2: That was pretty fun. But I mean, the number of guys.

338
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 2: You can't keep all these guys, and I could see

339
00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 2: every single one of these receivers playing on either our

340
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 2: twenty twenty one team twenty twenty two teams and being

341
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 2: being a part of it. But it's just gotten to

342
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 2: be such a strong position for them. I mean between Nico,

343
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 2: Steph Tank, Noah, John Metchi, Ben Skaronic another player that

344
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 2: we talked to today and talked about his experience, who said, hey,

345
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 2: I'll even go over and play Nickel for you if

346
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 2: I need to.

347
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 1: That would be interesting on the team.

348
00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,280
Speaker 3: By the way, we didn't talk to know it today,

349
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 3: but they all mentioned Noah, yeah, they did. All the receivers,

350
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,440
Speaker 3: he gets mad respect in that receiver room.

351
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 2: He does very much so, and talking to Robert Woods

352
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 2: is just you know, you talk about, Hey, don't forget

353
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 2: about me. At OTAs, the OTAs that we have seen.

354
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 2: They'll do a period of third downs, and I'm telling

355
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 2: you he catches the majority of passes on those particular downs.

356
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 2: He knows how to get open. That's why when you

357
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:30,200
Speaker 2: said Robert Woods, I said Bobby Trees, and I said,

358
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:33,160
Speaker 2: mister third down, because that's where they're looking. Think of

359
00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 2: that Ravens game week one. Third down. They went to

360
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 2: Robert and.

361
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,720
Speaker 5: What I what I've always loved about Robert Woods, and

362
00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 5: it really didn't crystallize until I saw it up close,

363
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 5: is what routes he has asked to run, especially on

364
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 5: third down.

365
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 2: That dude is in a pinball game. Now, for you

366
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 2: youngsters who don't know about pinball, it was this arcade

367
00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,720
Speaker 2: game and the ball. I bet they don't. I bet

368
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 2: there are youngsters out there don't know about pinball.

369
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 1: My eleven year old knows pinball.

370
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,159
Speaker 2: Well, that's good raising. You're raising your kid, right. But

371
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 2: he gets pinballed all over the formation. Linebackers are hitting him,

372
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 2: safety's hitting him. He's got to find a place to

373
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 2: settle up and go catch a third down, and then

374
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 2: he does. He does such a great amount of the

375
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 2: dirty work, and men's garnick. When we asked him about

376
00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 2: Robert Woods, he said that a very thing. He said, Yeah,

377
00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 2: Robert was He was a guy that I watched a

378
00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 2: ton of because I had to learn how to play

379
00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 2: with that sort of uh, that sort of grit and

380
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,720
Speaker 2: play like him in some sense. So met's gronic who's

381
00:17:37,760 --> 00:17:39,480
Speaker 2: just been recently traded here another guy that we had

382
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 2: a chance to talk to.

383
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,199
Speaker 1: But I just feel like Robert Woods, there's gonna be

384
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:48,399
Speaker 1: a way you. I don't know about money, contract and

385
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:48,919
Speaker 1: any of that.

386
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 2: I just know that Robert Woods being around here makes

387
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,000
Speaker 2: me feel that much better about the receiver group as

388
00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 2: a whole.

389
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:56,919
Speaker 1: All right, let's get to some other guys.

390
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 3: So we hit all the important guys here, and look,

391
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 3: Tim Bo might not be the most important because right

392
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:04,760
Speaker 3: now he would be called the fourth string quarterback or whatever,

393
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,720
Speaker 3: although you've seen him divide up some time with the

394
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 3: three and who knows where it's all going to end

395
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 3: up for him. What was your takeaway with Boyle, who

396
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:14,919
Speaker 3: we will hear from in a few moments here, because

397
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:19,720
Speaker 3: mine was this is a super confident individual who you

398
00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,960
Speaker 3: could see why teams like him, and it's going to

399
00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 3: be interesting. He defines himself for everybody.

400
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: And you want to stay tuned for that.

401
00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, you tease it, Mark, That's exactly where I

402
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 2: was going with it. I asked him for people that

403
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 2: didn't get a chance to see him start with the

404
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,240
Speaker 2: Jets or you know, you get some other time during

405
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:38,560
Speaker 2: the year last year, and he got here in December,

406
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,000
Speaker 2: you know what can Texans fans expect out of you?

407
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:45,360
Speaker 2: And he was very clear, very demonstrative about how he

408
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 2: described himself. So you definitely don't want to miss that

409
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,120
Speaker 2: Tim Boyle. And here's the thing about Boyle, He's got

410
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 2: a cannon arm a rocket. The ball just explodes out

411
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 2: of his hands. Now, over the years, we have seen

412
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 2: quarterbacks come into this building that have rocket arms. Yeah,

413
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,199
Speaker 2: and it's not worked out. There have been some in

414
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 2: which it has worked out.

415
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:09,199
Speaker 1: I don't know.

416
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,159
Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that. I wouldn't say that Deshaun and

417
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 2: CJ have rocket arms. The arms are pretty aren't good.

418
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,639
Speaker 2: They can fire it and put it into a small

419
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 2: spot when.

420
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:17,520
Speaker 1: They need to.

421
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 3: CEJ in the podcast that he was on that what

422
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 3: is a million dollar play podcast whatever, and he's firing

423
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 3: passes in the living room and just thrilling the wall.

424
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: He sounds awesome. He's on his accuracy.

425
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 2: I I you know, speaking of scouting reports, I'll get

426
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 2: to that in a second, because we had Juar Jordan

427
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,360
Speaker 2: come in. But that was the one thing I put

428
00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:38,920
Speaker 2: in the scouting report. Mark he could throw. He could

429
00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 2: throw a ball through a keyhole, like you tell him

430
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,479
Speaker 2: which spot. And it's funny. You know, I love NFL films.

431
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 2: NFL films a long time ago is trying to describe

432
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 2: you know, Sammy Bad tell the Sammy Boss story and

433
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 2: they said the famous story of baw was a coach

434
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 2: told him that, hey, when he makes the cut, hit

435
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 2: him in the eye and Sammy boss said, which I.

436
00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 1: That's how accurate he was.

437
00:19:59,320 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 4: That was to.

438
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,639
Speaker 2: Describe his accuracy. You know, it's kind of that's kind

439
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,560
Speaker 2: of CJ. But my favorite moment probably the day that

440
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,240
Speaker 2: I kind of like, all right, I'm gonna take a

441
00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 2: pat on the back. We had Juar Jordan come in

442
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,719
Speaker 2: and you know these guys, we get to see him

443
00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 2: around a building, so we know them. Well, Jawar walked

444
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,880
Speaker 2: in and he was he was not with there's there's

445
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:19,760
Speaker 2: one person that takes all these guys around to all

446
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,200
Speaker 2: their different places. Well, whoever that was did not walk in.

447
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,639
Speaker 2: So when Jawar walked in, I didn't know who it was.

448
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 2: And so I said, hey, I'm John Harris and he says, oh, hey,

449
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 2: I'm I'm Juwar Jordan. Oh okay, And then you walked in.

450
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,119
Speaker 2: You had been outside, you walked in and we did

451
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:41,360
Speaker 2: our interview, and so I asked him who who did

452
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 2: you emulate growing up? Was there was there a running

453
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 2: back that you you looked at? And he said, you know,

454
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 2: I didn't really watch teams growing up. He said, you

455
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,840
Speaker 2: know a couple of the first guys that I liked

456
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 2: watching and he said one of them that he's one

457
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 2: of the reasons I were number twenty five is because

458
00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:58,199
Speaker 2: of Shady McCoy.

459
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: I went, oh, no, really, I said, you seriously, Yeah,

460
00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:03,479
Speaker 1: I'm serious.

461
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 2: I pulled up my draft report and there it was

462
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 2: my cop for Juar Jordan was former Bills Eagles running

463
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:12,719
Speaker 2: back Shady with Sean Shady McCoy.

464
00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:14,879
Speaker 1: When he said, I was like, yes, this is a

465
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:15,960
Speaker 1: John Harris moment.

466
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:18,240
Speaker 4: Yes, now us.

467
00:21:18,359 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: I was so excited. I was like, yes, I got

468
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: one right, because he does.

469
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 2: He has kind of that that's shifty, this shifty electric

470
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 2: ability to just move away from defenders, but really fun talking.

471
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: I love talking to the rookies.

472
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,959
Speaker 2: We got a couple of rookies today and we got

473
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,680
Speaker 2: caged over who was fun but talking to we talked

474
00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:39,920
Speaker 2: to him before, but talking to Duar was was pretty good.

475
00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 2: And hearing him talk about the running back room and

476
00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 2: talk about the impact of one guy that we absolutely loved,

477
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 2: Daria Gombwalle.

478
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 1: Of course we love Daria Gumballe. Daria Gumbowale is needed.

479
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 3: He's the Swiss army knife. He can play special teams

480
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:55,639
Speaker 3: at a high level. He can kick field goals. He

481
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 3: might even kick off who knows how they handle that

482
00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 3: because exactly we've all heard about Justin Reid doing it for.

483
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: The Kansas City Chiefs.

484
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,920
Speaker 3: Maybe and maybe Frank Ross decides to try Dara out

485
00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 3: in that. In that respect, it's funny with place kicking

486
00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 3: the way it is right now, Look at the UFL.

487
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 3: They don't kick extra points, right, they go for the

488
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 3: one point conversion right to two conversion, right, But they

489
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:22,080
Speaker 3: do have field goals, and I guess they kick off,

490
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,960
Speaker 3: but are We're going to see a lot of players

491
00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 3: kick off this year who have the talent to do

492
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,680
Speaker 3: it because you need the extra tackling. Yes, nobody knows

493
00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 3: how this is all going to go down, but you

494
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,480
Speaker 3: know they're going to keep them around at least long

495
00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:38,120
Speaker 3: enough to get a look at that, and we'll see

496
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 3: what happens into the regular season. You'd love to have

497
00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:43,560
Speaker 3: a luxury problem where all these backs go off pierces

498
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,359
Speaker 3: back to twenty twenty two piers although I don't know

499
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 3: if you'll be able to find that out in the preseason.

500
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,440
Speaker 3: Jamar Jordan looks amazing, Obviously got to keep him. You

501
00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 3: still got Andrew Beck, Hey, you still have what's our

502
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 3: buddy Harston?

503
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: Still Harrison?

504
00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you know Troy could possibly make this team.

505
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,439
Speaker 3: He's gonna have to beat out Beck to do it,

506
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 3: but hey, let's have it competition, right. Looks like he's

507
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 3: been working a lot on the body as he rehabbed

508
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,640
Speaker 3: last year having to miss the season with an injury.

509
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,679
Speaker 3: So there are a lot of exciting developments there. But Darry,

510
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 3: you know, you want him on your football team.

511
00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 2: You just want you want Daria Gumbwali on your football team.

512
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 2: You want him in your building, You want him, you know,

513
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 2: just impacting your organization in some way, shape or form.

514
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 2: We've got to know him since twenty seventeen. Now, he

515
00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 2: didn't make the team at twenty seventeen, but he got

516
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:35,120
Speaker 2: back here to us, and that I think has been

517
00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,200
Speaker 2: a tremendous development. And whether it's special teams, whether it's

518
00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,600
Speaker 2: third downs where he's coming to the game, whether it's

519
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:44,479
Speaker 2: kicking field goals, there's a spirit about him that I just,

520
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 2: you know, I just wish a lot of guys, you know,

521
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,399
Speaker 2: had that that was similar to that, but he and

522
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 2: this was kind of kind of a tot common theme

523
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,960
Speaker 2: between Dara, M J. Stewart, Eric Murray, your guys have

524
00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,080
Speaker 2: been around seven, eight, nine years in this league, and

525
00:23:58,119 --> 00:23:59,880
Speaker 2: they know what their role is. You know what there's

526
00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:03,679
Speaker 2: some supposed to do, and they know also because of

527
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 2: that role that they then can impact the team in

528
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 2: any way, shape or form, whether it's special teams. You know,

529
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,480
Speaker 2: MJ's the personal protector on special teams or on punt team,

530
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:16,959
Speaker 2: runs down on kickoff. I remember the first year he

531
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,200
Speaker 2: was here was twenty one. I think MJ runs down

532
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 2: and just hammered a Chargers returner forced to fumble. That

533
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 2: nearly changed that game going the other direction. So these

534
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 2: guys know.

535
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 1: What their roles are and they're very confident in them.

536
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 2: And they relish having that opportunity to make an impact

537
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 2: on to make an impact on a play, be a

538
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 2: field goal, kickoff return, whatever it might be.

539
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 1: You brought up Stover.

540
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:42,199
Speaker 3: Biggest takeaway from Stover for me, Johnny, Yeah, seldom do

541
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 3: I buy into this offensive or defensive DNA type stuff,

542
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,439
Speaker 3: but it's clear that he has heavy defensive DNA as

543
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,919
Speaker 3: an offensive player. As a tight end. Kate Stover, you

544
00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 3: could tell he played defense. His demeanor, his he just

545
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 3: has this attacking sort of sense of ability about him.

546
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,679
Speaker 3: And I'm thinking and attacking from a defensive standpoint. It

547
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,679
Speaker 3: just feels like when you're talking to him, it feels

548
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 3: like he's a defensive player. Yet he talks about his

549
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:15,919
Speaker 3: preparation and it's voluminous the amount of work he is

550
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:16,480
Speaker 3: doing to.

551
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:17,719
Speaker 1: Get to know this offense.

552
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,040
Speaker 3: I think you can feel very good about Cad Stover

553
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 3: having full working knowledge, the most you could possibly have

554
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:27,400
Speaker 3: as a rookie when we go into this campaign.

555
00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:29,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm excited to see him.

556
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,600
Speaker 2: And when you talked when we talked to Andrew Beck,

557
00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 2: we talked to Brev Brevin Jordan, that was one of

558
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 2: the things they said about Caid, like he just fits

559
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 2: right in. He can speak our language, he can speak

560
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 2: what we're talking about. I think that's one of the

561
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,959
Speaker 2: hardest things for a rookie, you know, or when you ever,

562
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:49,600
Speaker 2: every whenever you're in a new situation, you use acronyms.

563
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,160
Speaker 2: You know, Oh, it's it's over at, it's over at

564
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:55,200
Speaker 2: the a pack, you know, And whenever you know you're

565
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,679
Speaker 2: working in a new situation, you're like, well, what's the apack? Well,

566
00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,760
Speaker 2: everybody knows because they've been there. They're comfortable with it,

567
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:01,879
Speaker 2: and they use that and they speak in that language.

568
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 2: Hey go just pick up your sandwich. Day pack and

569
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,000
Speaker 2: you're when you're new to situation like I don't know

570
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,160
Speaker 2: what's what's the apac when you learn all those things.

571
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 1: Well, Kate Stover seems to be learning those things.

572
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 2: A lot earlier, so she's speak he's speaking that language,

573
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 2: uh with these guys, and hopefully that turns into some

574
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:18,879
Speaker 2: really quality play from Kate Stover, because that would be

575
00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 2: absolutely fantastic to get him going.

576
00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,600
Speaker 3: Another guy I want to get to before we run

577
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,159
Speaker 3: out of time here is Tim Settle.

578
00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,880
Speaker 1: From the Buve. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, this player.

579
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:28,439
Speaker 6: You know.

580
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 3: The first thing we talked to him about is culture.

581
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 3: Well he brings it up basically because I'm just throwing

582
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,879
Speaker 3: out of general softball about what it's like to be

583
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 3: in Houston and get acclimated, and he talks about, oh,

584
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 3: the winning culture. He didn't use that word the way

585
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,440
Speaker 3: he described it. Again, we'll have this interview on soon enough,

586
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 3: but it was very notable to me how he pointed

587
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 3: out how it's about winning here and you can tell

588
00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:55,280
Speaker 3: right away what the goals are, what the expectations are.

589
00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 3: It is strong and you got to be excited to

590
00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:58,720
Speaker 3: have him on the team.

591
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:03,120
Speaker 2: So we also had only full Arunzo Fatakasi, which, by

592
00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 2: the way, he is giving you a directive when he

593
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,640
Speaker 2: makes a play, it's got to it's coming.

594
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 3: And I'm all about that because I'd rather say the

595
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:12,720
Speaker 3: multi syllable word for a sec.

596
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's very good, it's very cool. You could say

597
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,239
Speaker 2: it with some panache. But one of the things that

598
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:19,920
Speaker 2: you and I talked about when it came to draft

599
00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 2: stuff like all the time, was do the Texans have size?

600
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:26,960
Speaker 1: Do we have size?

601
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,800
Speaker 2: You know, we you know, losing Sheldon and losing Maleak,

602
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 2: like those guys weren't big. And I've talked about it.

603
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 2: You know, I think they probably needed a little bit

604
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,119
Speaker 2: more size. Could you get size with athleticism too that

605
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:38,960
Speaker 2: I mean, that's kind of a goal, you know. Could

606
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:40,640
Speaker 2: you get a three hundred and twenty pounder that can

607
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:42,439
Speaker 2: move and as quick and all that kind of stuff?

608
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,199
Speaker 2: Fully fully fued Ticasi and Tim Settle walked in and

609
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 2: I just was like, Okay, they're big enough.

610
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 1: I mean, we know big guys.

611
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 4: Yep.

612
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 2: All these guys coming in, they're big in some in

613
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 2: some way. Those two guys, I I can't remember Settle.

614
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,480
Speaker 2: I never thought of Settle of being like that big.

615
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,199
Speaker 2: But when he walked in. I thought, boy, he's put together.

616
00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:09,159
Speaker 2: Holy smokes. And when I say big, I'm talking not

617
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 2: like big fat. I'm talking really well put together, strong trunk,

618
00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 2: just big broad shoulders.

619
00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:18,199
Speaker 1: Those are big guys.

620
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:22,080
Speaker 2: I am not worried at all about having enough size

621
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 2: on the inside.

622
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,880
Speaker 1: It fully fought to COSTI and Tim Settle can stay

623
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,200
Speaker 1: healthy and they're gonna rotate.

624
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,680
Speaker 3: Khalil Davis was in here, and I know he's pass

625
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 3: rushing defensive tackle, but you know you could playhim in

626
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 3: a lot of ways.

627
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 1: What stood out to me work ethic.

628
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,880
Speaker 3: The guy is remember he was developed in that Tampa

629
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 3: Bay culture when they were winning Super Bowl with Tom

630
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 3: Brady and trying to get back there, and you just

631
00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 3: get the feeling he's so grateful and he's gonna work

632
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:51,479
Speaker 3: his butt off to stay and keep making plays.

633
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: He knows they've added on the interior, but he wants

634
00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 1: to be part of the party. Yeah, no doubt.

635
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 2: And he played in the in the USFL and I

636
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,479
Speaker 2: asked him, we did a little math. I said, how

637
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 2: many games are you played literally in like a calendar year? Essentially,

638
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,840
Speaker 2: because he played eleven with the Birmingham Stallions won the

639
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 2: championship a month later, he's in camp. He then plays

640
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:15,040
Speaker 2: three preseason games, seventeen regular season and two playoff games.

641
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:16,720
Speaker 1: And he did all of that in the span of

642
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 1: about eight months. He's like Caitlin Clark, going right, never mind.

643
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 2: I was like, I was like, you need a break, right, Nope,

644
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 2: going right back to work.

645
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 1: How about this.

646
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,080
Speaker 3: He's got two rings NFL rings.

647
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:31,080
Speaker 2: That's pretty awesome. Yeah, that's pretty awesome. Let's get another one.

648
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,000
Speaker 1: Let's get another one.

649
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 2: Speaking of another one, the Texans added another quarterback in

650
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:39,080
Speaker 2: December of twenty twenty three. His name is Tim Boyle.

651
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 2: We had a blast talking with Tim Boyle. He is

652
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,959
Speaker 2: next on Texans All Access.

653
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:45,160
Speaker 1: What's Happened? Everybody?

654
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 2: Welcome back to a Monday edition of Texans All Access

655
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:49,840
Speaker 2: from the at Texans Radio Studio. I'm your host, John Harris,

656
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,760
Speaker 2: Football at the Sideline Reporter for your Houston Texans. We

657
00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 2: had media days here, internal, internal, just for the internal group.

658
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 2: We had them and we had a lot of radio

659
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,640
Speaker 2: interviews today, twenty five of them to be exact. The

660
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:09,040
Speaker 2: first one that we pulled out of here quarterback Tim Boyle.

661
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 2: Been around for a while. He had a very interesting story.

662
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 2: We talked about transferring from Yukon to Eastern Kentucky. Talked

663
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 2: about Aaron Rodgers and what it's been like in his

664
00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:21,320
Speaker 2: quarterback room. Was he invited immediately to the quarterback dinners?

665
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,360
Speaker 2: You bet you he was. Here's Tim Boyle with Mark

666
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,720
Speaker 2: and I All right, Tim Boyle joining us right now.

667
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,040
Speaker 2: Quite a journey for you so far in your career

668
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:31,520
Speaker 2: and you're here. What's it like being part of that

669
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 2: quarterback room with CJ.

670
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 1: Davis?

671
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 6: Case, Yeah, it's a fun group. You know, we're around

672
00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 6: each other all day and we feed off each other.

673
00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 6: It's cool to have some contrast too. You get the

674
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 6: old savvy vett in case Keenum, you know, you get

675
00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 6: the rookie, you know, the rookie of the year and C. J.

676
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 6: Stroud and obviously Davis has played a bunch of games

677
00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 6: really well. So I think we have, you know, a

678
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 6: room of capable quarterbacks, different personalities, but we all get along,

679
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 6: and we all we all feed off each other and

680
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,959
Speaker 6: we all we all root for each other. So it's

681
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 6: been an awesome room, and the coaches have been great,

682
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:06,200
Speaker 6: but it's been it's been a fun few months here

683
00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:06,560
Speaker 6: for me.

684
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:07,080
Speaker 1: Tim.

685
00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:09,640
Speaker 2: When you got here, probably what mid to late December.

686
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:12,120
Speaker 2: So did you get invited to the quarterback dinners? Were

687
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 2: you part of those dinners?

688
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 6: I was, I was squeaking those things last minute. Last

689
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,600
Speaker 6: year we went to Mashrows a few times, got a

690
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:20,600
Speaker 6: couple of nice steak dinners. But those conversations are lovely, man.

691
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 6: That's that's when you truly get to get to know

692
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 6: the guys. You know, and the building is one thing,

693
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 6: but when you get to really separate from out outside

694
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 6: the building and the branch off and build that camaraderie

695
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 6: outside the building is lovely. But yeah, the quarterback meals

696
00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 6: were fun last year.

697
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:36,400
Speaker 2: So when you get here in December, obviously we weren't

698
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 2: the three thirteen and one team we were the years before.

699
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,520
Speaker 2: But your impression coming in and then your impression of

700
00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 2: the place once you got here, were they different? Was

701
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 2: it kind of what you expected? Was it different than

702
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 2: you expected? What was kind of your vibe when you

703
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 2: got here for this team at that time?

704
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 6: So being with the Jets last year, obviously you kind

705
00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 6: of keep a close tabs on, you know, the successful

706
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 6: teams you know in the NFL as you kind of

707
00:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 6: go throughout the season, and the Texans were rolling towards

708
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,640
Speaker 6: the you know, towards that middle of the season mark,

709
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 6: you know, and and uh, you know what happened with

710
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:05,959
Speaker 6: me with the Jets, then letting me go and then

711
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 6: you know, being on the street for a few weeks

712
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:08,959
Speaker 6: and then getting picked up here. I was like, all, right,

713
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 6: here we go. I'm on a successful team.

714
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 5: Uh.

715
00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 6: CJ's playing really well, the offense is playing really well.

716
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 6: I mean all three phases. Honestly, you're playing well. But

717
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 6: really getting here and understanding the culture that uh, the coach,

718
00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 6: coach Ryan's has implemented here has been pretty cool. He's

719
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,240
Speaker 6: obviously a former player, he gets it.

720
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: You know.

721
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 6: As a player, all you really want is a coach

722
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 6: who will shoot you straight and will lead you to

723
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 6: the promised Land. And I think the team takes on

724
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,720
Speaker 6: the culture of the head coach and he's he's a

725
00:32:35,720 --> 00:32:39,239
Speaker 6: good man first and foremost and a wonderful coach. And

726
00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:41,120
Speaker 6: I know we all love playing for him. And the

727
00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 6: culture here really is strong and it's been cool to see.

728
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 4: You know.

729
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 6: Obviously, coming in mid season is tricky. You know, everyone's

730
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 6: kind of got their clicks and you kind of kind

731
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:50,800
Speaker 6: of come into the season and you're kind of just

732
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 6: throwing in figure it out, but really spending time here

733
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 6: this offseason and understanding like what what's the game plan,

734
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,800
Speaker 6: what's the what's the culture, what's the vibe? Has been wonderful.

735
00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 6: It's a it's it's a great place to be. I've

736
00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:02,479
Speaker 6: loved every second here.

737
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 1: I really have Tim Boyle with us.

738
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 3: You've been around Aaron Rodgers a lot because Green Bay

739
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:08,600
Speaker 3: and then last year. I don't know how much he

740
00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,840
Speaker 3: was around as he was rehabbing the injury, but give

741
00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 3: us a couple of nuggets things you've learned being around him.

742
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:18,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, so very grateful being around Aaron. He's obviously one

743
00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 6: of the best to ever do it. But you know,

744
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 6: one of the things I got from him was, you know,

745
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 6: his preparation. You know, whether we were twenty eighteen, we

746
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 6: didn't have a really really good team, you know, and

747
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 6: Aaron played every game and he prepared the same every week.

748
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 6: And I think his his mental preparation going in every week,

749
00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,360
Speaker 6: how he watched film, what his details were on the

750
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 6: defense going into every week. It kind of helped him

751
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 6: simplify some things during the game. I took from him,

752
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:45,800
Speaker 6: But honestly, the best thing was competing against him for

753
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 6: four years. You know, I'm practicing with him every day

754
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,280
Speaker 6: for four years, and I was competing against one of

755
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:52,719
Speaker 6: the best throwers and quarterbacks to ever do it. So

756
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 6: I think that naturally raised my level of play and

757
00:33:56,840 --> 00:34:00,480
Speaker 6: arm talent. But Aaron's a He's a good friend, and

758
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 6: football is one thing, but you know that the relationships

759
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 6: off the field obviously are more important than me, and

760
00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 6: he's been a wonderful friend. Him and I continue to

761
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 6: stay in touch. But I would say the two things

762
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:12,840
Speaker 6: that really I took from him just the competitive aspect

763
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,200
Speaker 6: of competing against him every day, you know, the drills,

764
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,880
Speaker 6: the net drills, the accuracy stuff, and also the mental

765
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 6: stuff of how he approached every week.

766
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,480
Speaker 2: So Tim Mark and I have seen you play, but

767
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:24,120
Speaker 2: there may be a lot of Texans fans out there

768
00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,319
Speaker 2: that haven't seen you play. And we haven't gotten to

769
00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 2: preseason games in training camp just yet. So one of

770
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 2: the Texans fans do get a chance to put their

771
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,319
Speaker 2: eyes on you at training camp in the preseason, in

772
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,960
Speaker 2: the regular season, what are they seeing? What kind of players?

773
00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 2: But how would you describe yourself to the Texans fans?

774
00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:40,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm a gunslinger.

775
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 4: I want to go throw it.

776
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:42,480
Speaker 1: You know we noticed.

777
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I want to We've seen that camp for sure.

778
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:47,759
Speaker 6: I want to throw the rock, you know. I want

779
00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:50,720
Speaker 6: the fans to see someone who's gonna play smart, clean football,

780
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,279
Speaker 6: is not going to turn the ball over. I think

781
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,520
Speaker 6: ultimately that's what quarterbacks are judged for. It's it's how

782
00:34:54,520 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 6: clean can you play? And that's what's so impressive about CJ.

783
00:34:56,719 --> 00:35:00,720
Speaker 6: Honestly is his hanging on to the football and so accurate.

784
00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 6: But yeah, I want to go throw the rock. I

785
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:04,080
Speaker 6: want to be smart about it. I want to be

786
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:05,720
Speaker 6: a good leader, I want to be a good teammate,

787
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 6: and ultimately it's about winning games in this league. So

788
00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 6: I want to go win some games and have some

789
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 6: fun doing it.

790
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,640
Speaker 3: Yeah all right, Johnny, allow me to indulge here something

791
00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 3: very important to me because Tim is from Connecticut and

792
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 3: he spent time at Yukon before Eastern Kentucky. Right, so

793
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 3: let's get to this. I went to bu So Yukon.

794
00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 3: There was the enemy. They had football. When I was there,

795
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,760
Speaker 3: I was the voice of u Mass Yukon the enemy.

796
00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 3: I was the voice of Miami Yukon the enemy. So

797
00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:33,880
Speaker 3: you tell me being on that Yukon campus who rules

798
00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,560
Speaker 3: the campus. Is it the football players, is it the

799
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:40,399
Speaker 3: men's basketball players, or is the women's basketball players, because

800
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,959
Speaker 3: I got a feeling it could be Gino Arima's crew.

801
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 6: Traditionally it's a basketball school. Obviously when I was there,

802
00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 6: the women ruled that place. But my freshman year, both

803
00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 6: the men and the women won national chap and so

804
00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 6: I was at Yukon during a really cool time. It

805
00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:59,880
Speaker 6: was fourteen, yeah, when the men and women both won

806
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:03,800
Speaker 6: national championships. But Gino does such an incredible, credible job.

807
00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:06,200
Speaker 6: But that school is so cool, just going to gamble

808
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 6: arena there right on campus.

809
00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:09,720
Speaker 4: It's just a cool school.

810
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:13,000
Speaker 6: The campus is laid out in an interesting way. I

811
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 6: had a good three years there, but ultimately my football

812
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,359
Speaker 6: career there was kind of fizzling out, and that's why

813
00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 6: I decided to transfer out. But yeah, the basketball, it's

814
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 6: definitely a basketball school and a lot of energy around

815
00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:24,560
Speaker 6: basketball at Yukon, and I'm so happy that they've they've

816
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:25,319
Speaker 6: gone back to back.

817
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 2: Tim, you did something on a lot of players doing

818
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 2: now because it's you know, allowed now. Back when you

819
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 2: were playing, I believe you had the one time transfer

820
00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,840
Speaker 2: if you transferred to an FCS school or a lower division,

821
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 2: you could be eligible right away. Well went into your

822
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:39,280
Speaker 2: decision to transfer.

823
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:43,760
Speaker 6: So yeah, I know this might be convoluted, but it's

824
00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 6: actually a tricky story. So I spent three years at Yukon.

825
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 6: I never read shirted at Yukon, so I thought that

826
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:52,160
Speaker 6: I could transfer down FCS and play right away. Oh

827
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,839
Speaker 6: that was actually not the case. So the NCAA came

828
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:57,239
Speaker 6: to me right before I was transferred and said, hey,

829
00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 6: you have a red shirt year and one year to play.

830
00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:01,120
Speaker 6: You'll have to red shirt.

831
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 1: So I know. I didn't know that rule going into it.

832
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:06,600
Speaker 6: That's why I approached all these FCS schools thinking I

833
00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 6: could go there right away and play my true senior year.

834
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,000
Speaker 6: So by the time I had these collectionist schools interested

835
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:13,879
Speaker 6: in me, I found out that I had to red

836
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:16,960
Speaker 6: shirt no matter. So I ended up going to Eku.

837
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,360
Speaker 6: I had to red shirt my true senior year. I

838
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,080
Speaker 6: played my fifth year and that's kind of how that

839
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 6: all played out. But ultimately I wanted a fresh, a

840
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,799
Speaker 6: clean slate. I knew I had the ability, I didn't

841
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,720
Speaker 6: think I could really continue to push myself or really

842
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 6: elevate my game at Yukon, so I ended up going

843
00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,719
Speaker 6: to Eastern Kentucky and didn't even have a great fifth

844
00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 6: year senior year, but I did well enough to get

845
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 6: a couple of eyes on me and went to the

846
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:40,799
Speaker 6: Packers and here I am seven years later.

847
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, been in the NFL and now you can transfer

848
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:45,919
Speaker 3: like it's a drive through fast food or crazy Tam

849
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 3: thanks a lot for joining as good.

850
00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 2: Guess man, he had some great stuff and I'm telling

851
00:37:49,640 --> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 2: you when you see him in training camp in preseason,

852
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:56,080
Speaker 2: he has got a rocket for an arm, an absolute

853
00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,600
Speaker 2: ham cannon off his right shoulder. Cannot wait to see

854
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:03,800
Speaker 2: Tim Boyle this training camp and preseason.

855
00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:04,680
Speaker 1: Look he gets like.

856
00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 2: One rep at the end of each you know he

857
00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:10,320
Speaker 2: in case kind of split the reps with the threes

858
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,239
Speaker 2: at the end. And I think it whatever day we

859
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 2: saw last week was a Tuesday. I think I'm telling

860
00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 2: you he threw an absolute laser shot to his receiver

861
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,440
Speaker 2: for a first down. I just remember I kind of

862
00:38:23,480 --> 00:38:26,719
Speaker 2: grab Mark like whoa Like that thing was thrown with

863
00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:27,760
Speaker 2: some sauce.

864
00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 1: My goodness.

865
00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,560
Speaker 2: Now, another guy that is new to Houston, new as

866
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:36,160
Speaker 2: of this offseason is Miles Bryant, defensive back. We had

867
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:38,359
Speaker 2: a fun time talking to him that's coming up next

868
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,760
Speaker 2: right here in Texans All Access. We won final segment

869

871
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 2: a sideline reporter and one of my favorite players a

872
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 2: few years ago coming out of the draft. Was not

873
00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 2: a big guy, but every time that I watched him

874
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:57,919
Speaker 2: at university, watching it and I fell in love with him.

875
00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,960
Speaker 2: He was kind of a smaller here's the Desmond King

876
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,640
Speaker 2: and I love Dad's coming out of Iowa and that

877
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,360
Speaker 2: was Miles Bryant. You spent the last four years with

878
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 2: the New England Patriots. In twenty twenty, he was brought

879
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,960
Speaker 2: to the Patriots Nicossario, part of that Patriots crew that

880
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,920
Speaker 2: did that. Now, Miles Bryant comes here, play the nickel,

881
00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:17,720
Speaker 2: play safety, play corner, return kicks, special teams.

882
00:39:17,880 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 1: Miles Bryant does it all. We had a chance to

883
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 1: catch up with him.

884
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 2: Had a good time with Miles Bryant, with Mark and

885
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:26,320
Speaker 2: myself right here.

886
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 3: Miles Bryant joining us in studio, a new Houston, Texan

887
00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 3: relatively all right, So, Miles, what's it been like for

888
00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:33,640
Speaker 3: you so far being here?

889
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,800
Speaker 7: It's been good you know, just getting to know everybody

890
00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:40,160
Speaker 7: in the building. I feel like there's a lot more people,

891
00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,520
Speaker 7: you know, just walking around in the building than I

892
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 7: was accustomed to in New England. So yeah, just trying

893
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 7: to get to know everybody, trying to get to know

894
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 7: the system, you know, getting accustomed to the weather as well.

895
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, that's a little bit different, little bit. Yeah,

896
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 7: but I think it's been a good transition.

897
00:39:56,719 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 4: I'm excited for the season.

898
00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:59,680
Speaker 2: I'm sure you've been told a few times, Hey, just

899
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 2: wait for training camp in the weather. I'm sure that's

900
00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 2: probably been told to you at some point, because yeah,

901
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:06,839
Speaker 2: you'll you'll have to get ready for that, but you'll

902
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 2: you'll be fine, You'll be fine, It'll be totally fine.

903
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:12,720
Speaker 2: I would imagine Nick Cacio has a history with you.

904
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 2: You showed up in New England and what I'm trying

905
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:18,799
Speaker 2: to remember, what, So, did you have a connection with Nick?

906
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:20,799
Speaker 2: Is that how this opened up for you and why

907
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:21,799
Speaker 2: Houston made sense for you?

908
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, Nick was like the main person who brought me

909
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 7: into New England and then, like you said, it just

910
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 7: made sense once free agency came just to you know,

911
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 7: end up being here.

912
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,759
Speaker 2: So people haven't seen you play now I've seen you

913
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,000
Speaker 2: play a lot. I remember seeing you wear number five

914
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 2: Washington and I loved watching you then. But for people

915
00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:42,000
Speaker 2: that haven't seen you play, what kind of player are you?

916
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 2: What you bring to the table, What will Texas fans

917
00:40:44,360 --> 00:40:44,880
Speaker 2: like about you?

918
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:47,720
Speaker 7: I think I'm just a player that you know, tries

919
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,000
Speaker 7: to do everything, tries to be in the right spot,

920
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,040
Speaker 7: tries to you know, get guys lined up where they

921
00:40:53,080 --> 00:40:55,600
Speaker 7: need to and then just go out there and you know,

922
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,800
Speaker 7: just playing ball, whether it's you know, playing safety, corner,

923
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 7: nickel or even return and just going out there, you know,

924
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,799
Speaker 7: making an impact, making a difference, and you know, just

925
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 7: helping the team win. And you know, I like to

926
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 7: go out there, like to tackle, like to you know,

927
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 7: try to get the ball out, try to intercept it,

928
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:14,960
Speaker 7: you know, just just try to make plays, get the

929
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 7: get the sideline excited.

930
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:16,920
Speaker 4: All right.

931
00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,680
Speaker 3: So I know, guys playing other places and end up

932
00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,359
Speaker 3: on teams together whatever. How many of the guys in

933
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 3: the dB room do you feel or have you known before?

934
00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,000
Speaker 3: It's like hey, good to see it, or is it

935
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:29,799
Speaker 3: brand new for most of them?

936
00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 7: I think there's only one guy, D'Angelo Ross. We spent

937
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 7: two years together in England, and then I had spent

938
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:41,400
Speaker 7: an off season with Jeff Akuda, I think in twenty

939
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 7: twenty two, okay, and I think everybody else is like

940
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 7: fairly new. So I mean it's been good though, you know,

941
00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,319
Speaker 7: it's a it's a lot younger room than what I'm

942
00:41:50,360 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 7: accustomed to.

943
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:53,560
Speaker 4: But no, it's been good.

944
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:55,640
Speaker 7: You know, I'm learning a lot from a lot of guys,

945
00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 7: you know, whether younger than me, are older than me.

946
00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,960
Speaker 7: Just learning a lot, both on the field and off

947
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:01,319
Speaker 7: the field.

948
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 2: Miles on the field, learning a new scheme, I've always

949
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:07,280
Speaker 2: I'm always intrigued by that, learning a new scheme.

950
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 1: How does that go? How does that go for you?

951
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 1: Are you a guy that has to do walk.

952
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,319
Speaker 2: Throughs on the field, or you more, hey, let's sit

953
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:14,279
Speaker 2: in the classroom, or I just got to go. I

954
00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:15,600
Speaker 2: just got to go get in it and make my

955
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 2: own mistakes and learn from those. How do you kind

956
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,839
Speaker 2: of learn this throughout new Defense? And what's that been

957
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:21,839
Speaker 2: like kind of learning it the weeks we've been here.

958
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's like the latter part of what

959
00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:26,439
Speaker 7: you said, just go out there and you know, make

960
00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 7: the mistakes and you know, try to learn from them.

961
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,840
Speaker 7: I try to pride myself on, you know, making a

962
00:42:31,880 --> 00:42:35,799
Speaker 7: mistake one time and then that's that's it. So I

963
00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:37,839
Speaker 7: just like to kind of just be thrown out there

964
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,759
Speaker 7: in the fire and then you know, just fix and

965
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 7: correct the mistakes and you know, move forward from there.

966
00:42:43,520 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 3: All right, So Miles Bryant with us, I don't know

967
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 3: my Southern California geography. Well, you were born in Pasadena, right,

968
00:42:49,560 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 3: you went to Loyola High School. How far away is

969
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,080
Speaker 3: that in Pasadena or is that another area?

970
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 4: Loyal is in downtown La.

971
00:42:57,160 --> 00:43:00,719
Speaker 7: All right, it's just a few blocks away from now

972
00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:02,720
Speaker 7: the Crypto Crypto Arena.

973
00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,160
Speaker 4: Okay, Lakers and the Clippers and the Kings player.

974
00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:08,360
Speaker 3: So you grew up Laker fans. You grew up a

975
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:10,880
Speaker 3: Laker fan. But what NFL team? Because the Rams weren't

976
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,000
Speaker 3: back yet when you were a little kid, so I.

977
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:15,720
Speaker 4: Didn't have I don't think I had teams.

978
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:19,399
Speaker 7: I had players, Okay, I think my favorite player growing

979
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 7: up was Ladani and Tomlinson. So then that attracted me

980
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:25,280
Speaker 7: to the Chargers, and then once he ended up leaving,

981
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:28,799
Speaker 7: then I started just going everywhere, just with different kind

982
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 7: of players, different kind of teams. My first NFL game,

983
00:43:33,200 --> 00:43:37,840
Speaker 7: I went to Wash the Seahawks and Dolphins game. My

984
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:43,560
Speaker 7: dad's childhood friend ended up playing for the Seahawks, Chad Brown. Okay,

985
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,560
Speaker 7: he played a few years for the Seahawks, so you know,

986
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,200
Speaker 7: he brought us up there and then checked out the game.

987
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,399
Speaker 7: So I ended up liking the Seahawks a little bit.

988
00:43:51,520 --> 00:43:54,759
Speaker 7: And then I mean from there, like I just ended

989
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 7: up liking players, just different players around the league who

990
00:43:57,239 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 7: I thought were good players.

991
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 2: Now, I know you do a lot of recruiting in

992
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:02,760
Speaker 2: a lot of different areas, and they've hit the LA area,

993
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,520
Speaker 2: But why Washington? What made what made Seattle and Watching

994
00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,239
Speaker 2: the right place for you when you went for college?

995
00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:12,360
Speaker 4: I think it was like a multitude of things.

996
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 7: First of all, it was like a sticky situation and recruiting,

997
00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:19,680
Speaker 7: and I ended up losing all my offers and ended

998
00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,759
Speaker 7: up walking on there. And then Washington was like an

999
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:26,640
Speaker 7: offer I had right earlier. But I think it was

1000
00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:28,880
Speaker 7: just the fact that I was going to go there,

1001
00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:32,040
Speaker 7: and I knew as a student I was gonna you know,

1002
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 7: they were going to help me excel as a football player.

1003
00:44:34,640 --> 00:44:37,360
Speaker 7: They were going to help me excel, and then most importantly,

1004
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,240
Speaker 7: as a man, they were going to help me excel.

1005
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:41,919
Speaker 7: So I just think they covered you know, those three

1006
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 7: areas and allowed me to go out there and you know,

1007
00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 7: grow into who I am today.

1008
00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,040
Speaker 2: When they got watched and gave you a scholar at

1009
00:44:49,040 --> 00:44:50,839
Speaker 2: some point, right, yeah, after my first year.

1010
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,439
Speaker 1: Yeah that's what I figured say, because you played early

1011
00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: on in your career out there.

1012
00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:57,919
Speaker 7: Yeah, my first year, we had a deep dbeat room,

1013
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 7: guys like Buddha Baker, Kevin King, Sidney Jones. They all

1014
00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 7: went the second round and that next year's draft, so

1015
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 7: I kind of had to wait my turn. But I

1016
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,640
Speaker 7: was like playing special teams and we actually had a

1017
00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:10,439
Speaker 7: good team that year.

1018
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 4: So luckily we were beating teams.

1019
00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:14,239
Speaker 7: Pretty bad, so I would get in late third quarter,

1020
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:18,160
Speaker 7: early fourth and be able to get some reps. But yeah,

1021
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,239
Speaker 7: after my first spring ball, they ended up putting me

1022
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:20,920
Speaker 7: on scholarship.

1023
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:23,720
Speaker 3: Is you dubbed still the loudest building you've ever heard

1024
00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:24,880
Speaker 3: college or pro?

1025
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:26,120
Speaker 4: I think it's up there.

1026
00:45:26,280 --> 00:45:29,200
Speaker 7: I think surprisingly, and people get surprised when I tell

1027
00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:32,759
Speaker 7: them this last year with New England when we went

1028
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 7: to Germany and we played Indian Napolis.

1029
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 1: Oh yea, yeah, yeah, that.

1030
00:45:36,520 --> 00:45:37,360
Speaker 4: Got pretty loud.

1031
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:40,719
Speaker 7: All nice those fans Yeah, those fans, I mean from

1032
00:45:40,719 --> 00:45:43,680
Speaker 7: start to finish, from the point to where they played

1033
00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 7: there at national Anthem to the end of the game,

1034
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:46,600
Speaker 7: they were screaming.

1035
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 4: It was just a crazy atmosphere.

1036
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:50,759
Speaker 2: Was that experience like going to Germany play game? I

1037
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 2: mean just the flight itself. I don't know how long

1038
00:45:53,080 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 2: it would be from New England, But what was the

1039
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:58,320
Speaker 2: experience like playing international? Had you played in any of

1040
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:00,480
Speaker 2: the international games prior to that? Was up the first time? No,

1041
00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:01,359
Speaker 2: that was my first time.

1042
00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:02,040
Speaker 1: What was that like?

1043
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:03,239
Speaker 4: It was a lot of fun.

1044
00:46:03,320 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 7: I mean going out there, you know with the flight

1045
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:07,200
Speaker 7: and all that, and it was I think it was

1046
00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:11,040
Speaker 7: like seven hours. That wasn't fun, you know, having to

1047
00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:13,799
Speaker 7: adjust to you know, their times on all that. But

1048
00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:16,960
Speaker 7: you know, just walking around the city, walking around Frankfurt

1049
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 7: and the fact that people would know you, like they

1050
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:23,200
Speaker 7: would walk up and hey, so and so. Yeah, and

1051
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,279
Speaker 7: you wouldn't get that in Boston, but you should get

1052
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:28,760
Speaker 7: that in Frankfurt, you know. So they were very excited

1053
00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,520
Speaker 7: to you know, to have US and host us, and

1054
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,040
Speaker 7: you know, it made it made the game a lot

1055
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:35,239
Speaker 7: of fun. And then just going out there and you know,

1056
00:46:35,320 --> 00:46:37,560
Speaker 7: you watch soccer games and you see all the smoke.

1057
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, you hear all.

1058
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:41,839
Speaker 7: The fans screaming, and I mean just going out there

1059
00:46:42,400 --> 00:46:44,440
Speaker 7: and having an opportunity to play in front of that.

1060
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:46,360
Speaker 7: I think it was like one of the one of

1061
00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:49,200
Speaker 7: the best games, are one of the best feelings I've had.

Speaker 4: Thank you guys for having me.

1065
00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:55,840
Speaker 2: But it was interesting when he mentioned a number of

1066
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,440
Speaker 2: people he sees on a daily basis versus what he

1067
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,319
Speaker 2: saw in New England. Yeah, a little different the way

1068
