I just had a question. 7 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: It's been a pretty big offseason for you, a lot 8 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 1: of attention, Defensive Player of the Year stuff like that. 9 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 1: I'm wondering, giving your mindset of never being satisfied, you 10 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 1: have to adjust or do anything extra to sort of 11 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 1: take your mind off that and get back to focus 12 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 1: on your game. No, just trying to be the same 13 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,840 Speaker 1: guy and player. I am just trying to put put 14 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,720 Speaker 1: in work, eaching every day, and um, I know what 15 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 1: it took last year for me to play consistently each 16 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: and every game. And you know, it's just nothing I 17 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: can do but just put my head down and work 18 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: hard and and try to achieve those things each and 19 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: every game. Muted. Sorry, guys, just adjusting the camera. They're uh. 20 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: Andrew Callahan your next fall by Jan Steel. Thanks step 21 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: or man. That was practice. It was good, good practice. Today. Yeah, Um, so, 22 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 1: I know we talked all the time about different players. 23 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: You know that they're unique into themselves. Quarterbacks are all 24 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 1: different from one another. When you look at Cam now 25 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: that you've practice against him, what makes Cam different to 26 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: you as a passer? He has a strong arm. Um, 27 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: you know, he's a big guy. Everybody know and um, 28 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 1: you know, and we haven't really been you know, actually 29 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 1: chasing them around yet. We just put on the pad, so, um, 30 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:56,120 Speaker 1: he getting extin played. So that's one thing is going 31 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: to be hard to prepare for it too. So I 32 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: think all our quarterbacks doing a good job giving us 33 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: different looks and making it hard on us. Thanks, we'll 34 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 1: go you and Steal, followed by Joe Kayota. It's Steph. 35 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: Thanks for the time today. I'm curious what you thought 36 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: of the energy out there and practice we heard before 37 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,959 Speaker 1: we were able to get access that. You know, Cam 38 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: brought a certain energy and it kind of rupped off 39 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: on other guys. What do you think of today's energy 40 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 1: maybe compared two years passing. I think it's a little 41 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: bit more energy this year because you know, we've been 42 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,239 Speaker 1: without football because of everything that's been going on in 43 00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: the world, and we're just excited to be back out 44 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 1: and with our teammates and with our coaches, and um, 45 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: just trying to you know, enjoy it. You know, it's 46 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 1: been a while since we all been together, so we're 47 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: just trying to have fun and take on each and 48 00:02:53,560 --> 00:03:01,399 Speaker 1: every day. Thanks sactly with Joe Kayota, followed by Mark Daniels. Allright, Step, Yeah, 49 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 1: you mentioned the intensity. Is it a little different with 50 00:03:04,880 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 1: not having the fans at training camp. I know that 51 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: they're every year. They may give you a little boost 52 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: when you're out there, it's we're not having them out 53 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: there for training camp. I want to say, weird. Is 54 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: just different. Um, but you know, um, it's different for 55 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,639 Speaker 1: everyone in the league. And you know, we have to 56 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: bring our own energy every day. And you know, I 57 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: think we pushing each other as a team, and that's 58 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: what it comes down to. We got to bring our 59 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,679 Speaker 1: all energy and try to try to be there for 60 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: each other and try to execute a game plan. And um, 61 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 1: you know that that's what I want to take this 62 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: year with everything going on in the world. Next question 63 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: be Mark Daniels fall by love and read it's step. 64 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 1: You have a series of departures on defense, even Tom 65 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: Brady on offense. How much pressure do you put on 66 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: yourself to step off and leave the space? You know, 67 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: it's there's a lot in the league. You know, people come, 68 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 1: people goes, and you know you got to adjust and 69 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: try to be consistent with their game and try to 70 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: control what you can control. And that's one thing I'm 71 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: gonna do is just control what I can control and 72 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 1: try to make plays for for my teammates. And it's 73 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 1: a lot of turnover in the league, so you can't 74 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: control those things. So that's how I look at it. 75 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 1: Thank you, love and read Fall by Evan Lazar. Hey, stuff, 76 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: just talk about some of the guys who have had 77 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: second years. I know that this is you've had the 78 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: line up against guys just a couple of weeks going now. 79 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: Today was the first tin of practice. Can you see 80 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: the difference in guys like you kill Harry and Jacobe 81 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: Meyers and even Julian Edelman moving on from another year 82 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 1: that they're getting better. It's still early, you know, it's 83 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 1: just everyone's trying to get better right now, but obviously 84 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 1: from your first year, that second day you learn a 85 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: lot about the game and hopefully they take it each 86 00:04:57,600 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: and every every day and try to get better. You 87 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: know that's up to them, and um, if everyone does that, 88 00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: I think we'll be a great team. And it looks 89 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: like the last question. But every time I say that, 90 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,160 Speaker 1: somebody else will raise their hand. But it looks like 91 00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:19,280 Speaker 1: the last questions, evans aren't go ahead even hey, step 92 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: how are you doing? Yeah? How are you doing good? 93 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: I just wandering for you personally. Did you feel like 94 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: you have another level? Like can you do? You feel 95 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: like you can get even better than you were over 96 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 1: the last two years, and you know, just how do 97 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 1: you go about doing that when you win Defensive Player 98 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,280 Speaker 1: of the Year and all that kind of stuff. Like 99 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: I said, just take it day by day. You know, 100 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: it's not easy. You have to work for wherever you 101 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: earn in this league, whatever accolades you win, you have 102 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: to work for it. So I know it's not going 103 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:49,720 Speaker 1: to be easy. You have to put the work in 104 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 1: each and every day and go out and compete against 105 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 1: my teammates and get better and um, you know, hopefully 106 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: they carries over to the game, but you know, it 107 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: takes one day at a time and that's how I 108 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 1: approach it. So you're not you do you feel like 109 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: you have another level to get to personally or you know, 110 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: do you feel like right now you're just trying to 111 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: trying to phone all of it together and keep maintaining 112 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: your level of playing from the last couple of years. Yeah, 113 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: I mean I have to earn it. You know, whatever, 114 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: whatever my my goals are and whatever I have I 115 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: want to achieve, I have to earn it. Um. Like 116 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: I said, it's not easy. So um, practicing hard and 117 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 1: working on my technique and you know, making plays for 118 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: my teammates.

So just 186 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 1: what's the experience like of getting tested every day? How 187 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,719 Speaker 1: do you like it? Do you don't like it? Is it? Is? 188 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 1: It not a big deal? Just what's it like getting 189 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: tested every day? I think we're getting used to it. 190 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: You know, we have a routine that we have each 191 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: and every morning. You know we're testing, and UM, you know, 192 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 1: we're getting used to it and it's not a big deal. 193 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: It's one thing that we have to to do it. Um, 194 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,520 Speaker 1: each and every day to think ourself, protect our family. 195 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 1: So um, you know, I think all the guys willing 196 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,319 Speaker 1: to do whatever we can't to to do that.
