When when 52 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 4: that happens, it's easy to tell, like these guys know 53 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 4: that that guy's are great, not only a great player, 54 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 4: but they love him as a human, as a teammate. 55 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 6: Impact is they have when you have a guy who 56 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 6: has that swag or the juice, and some guys have 57 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 6: talked about it, it's kind of been like missing that 58 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 6: one a little bit to that to that group, it's huge. 59 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 4: It's huge because we've again you got a ton of 60 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 4: talent back there. But you know, there's guys that kind 61 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 4: of lead by example, very quiet. Their play isn't quiet. 62 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 4: It speaks for itself. But then you get somebody, you know, 63 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 4: with that type of swag. You know that that jaw has. 64 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 4: He's not afraid to talk. You know, I can't say 65 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 4: the word I used to be able to say that, 66 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 4: you know, my other my other job before I came 67 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 4: back to coaching. But but he loves loves the yapp 68 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 4: you know, and they feed off of it. You know, 69 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 4: that's contagious. So it's great to have. 70 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 3: Him We know Woozier's track record as an outside corner, 71 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 3: but is he something you could also see the effective 72 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 3: kind of moving around other that's inside. 73 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 6: Or even in safety for. 74 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 4: You know, from a physical stature, he's you know, he's 75 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 4: put together, he's got good size, he can run and 76 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 4: most of all, you know, his football intelligence, his football IQ. 77 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 2: Is off the charts. 78 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 4: So we've we've worked them in there a little bit 79 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 4: dim backer. I don't know if you guys have noticed that. 80 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 4: So he's certainly a guy that he's a quick study. 81 00:03:58,320 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 4: He's played for a long long time, so we end 82 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 4: stands he knows how to play. He's always in the 83 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,240 Speaker 4: right spot. So you're getting a pinch. You can't have 84 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 4: enough guys like Cheeto that have versatility, position flex like that. 85 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 4: So that's a bonus for us for sure the secondary. 86 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 6: But what can you do? 87 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 3: What's kind you're focused on trying to get? 88 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 2: In what sense? 89 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 6: What do you is there is there something you. 90 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:27,600 Speaker 3: Focus on as far as trying to get on communication, 91 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 3: gelling anything? 92 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 6: Is there anything? Is it like drills or how you 93 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 6: talk to that that. 94 00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's even like you know, they had Friday off, 95 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 4: we're back at it today. So Thursday night, you know, 96 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 4: Jah had a dB night at his house air so 97 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 4: everybody went over there. So developing those relationships, developing that brotherhood, 98 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 4: it's like, goes way beyond anything. When we walk in here, 99 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,280 Speaker 4: they're always communicating, they're always talking, they get a feel 100 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 4: for for each other. But when you build that relationship 101 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 4: like that and that becomes much deeper than just showing 102 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 4: up to a nine to five. You know, show up, 103 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 4: do your job and then leave here. 104 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 2: That goes That goes a long long way. 105 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 6: So definitely mean with. 106 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 9: Naytan Wagans that you're emphasizing to help him take his 107 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 9: game to the next level. 108 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, just consistency because we've seen him, you know, from 109 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 4: a talent standpoint, you know, the measurables are there. He 110 00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 4: can run with anybody in this league. It's just consistency 111 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 4: of being able to play at that level. Down after down, 112 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 4: and then year one to year two, you know, we 113 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 4: all expect a big jump just from a I think 114 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 4: the game's really slowing down from for him. 115 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 2: From a mental standpoint. 116 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 4: He's starting to get all the calls down, so now 117 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 4: it's going to be okay, what's the down in distance 118 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 4: He's going to understand that what's the personnel in the game, 119 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 4: what's the formation. He's going to be able to dissect 120 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 4: and diagnose instead of worrying about, Okay, what's my job 121 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 4: on this call. He's already got that down. So now 122 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 4: it's like he's figured out third and eight. It's one 123 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 4: of these two plays based on the personnel, based on 124 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 4: the formation, motion, and all those kind of thing. Excuse me, 125 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 4: So just consistency. 126 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 5: To a couple of the defensive guys, they've all talked 127 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 5: about emphasizing more turnovers.

You know, it's probably more about roster than 471 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 7: anything else. We definitely weren't planning on making a move. 472 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:56,440 Speaker 7: We were planning on John being there at least for 473 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 7: one game, maybe two games, maybe maybe all the games, 474 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 7: depending on how it went, because you know, I mean, 475 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 7: if you're the if you're the drafted kicker, you certainly 476 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 7: have the edge right child's But we wanted to keep 477 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 7: the pressure on on both of them too, and he 478 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 7: was doing a good job and kicking well enough to 479 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 7: earn a spot on the team. But we just had 480 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 7: roster needs right now. We just needed some some certain 481 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:19,400 Speaker 7: positions tight ends, receivers and running back. So we felt 482 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 7: like we we had to do it, not that we 483 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,800 Speaker 7: couldn't bring him back if we if we if we 484 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 7: get the opportunity or we need to, what does. 485 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 8: That would you know, does it even solidify with even 486 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:29,680 Speaker 8: more going for it? 487 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 7: I don't know if I don't know if he can 488 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,920 Speaker 7: really equate it that way. I think he's he's just 489 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,880 Speaker 7: gonna stand on his own. You know, he was he's 490 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 7: kicking well enough to win the job. I mean, he 491 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 7: had another he had another really good day this morning. 492 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 7: They went over to the stadium and he made them all.

And then 505 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,440 Speaker 7: brought a couple of tight ends in you know, the 506 00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 7: bolsters there a little bit, and we're working receivers out too, 507 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 7: you know, because you've got those guys with the different 508 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 7: leg things. You want to have enough guys because we 509 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 7: still want to have good practices. So you just gotta 510 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 7: balance balance your roster camp roster. Sorry, a lot of high. 511 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 9: Praise for gyre Alexander, not just for what he breathes 512 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 9: from a playing perspective, but his personality, his energy to. 513 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:44,800 Speaker 6: Say, hey, you talk a little bit about that, what you've. 514 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 7: Seen from that standpoint, Well, he's full energy. I mean, 515 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 7: he's in the weight room at six o'clock every morning, 516 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 7: so and he's he's lighting it up and bringing energy. 517 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 7: You know, he's just he's just that kind of a guy. 518 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 7: But here's an example. So showed a clip today. We're 519 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:57,919 Speaker 7: one of the one of the young receivers or one 520 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 7: of the young DB's got an interception before the day 521 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 7: off and he didn't run it back to the house. 522 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 7: And we had been showing these clips of all of 523 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 7: our guys, Ed Reid and Dwan Landry and all these 524 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 7: different guys, Jimmy Smith picking picking off and making good 525 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 7: runs and stuff like that. And you know, we want 526 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 7: to encourage our guys, and he didn't didn't run it out. 527 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 7: You know, I just told my say, man, you know 528 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,680 Speaker 7: what a guy like me, who was not a good player, 529 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 7: would have given to be in an NFL practice. You know, 530 00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 7: if I'd got an interception, I'd definitely be running that 531 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 7: thing back to the house. 532 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 6: You know. 533 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 7: So Jaiere, did you see what he did? He picks 534 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 7: one off on the sideline when we got this fields 535 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 7: run this way, then we got another field run this way, 536 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 7: So instead of running it back that way, he went 537 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,440 Speaker 7: on the other field and ran it all the way back. 538 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 6: Did you see that? 539 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 7: Like abo about one hundred and thirty yards actually probably 540 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 7: what it was. So that's that's the kind of energy 541 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 7: he brings on the rivers. 542 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:46,879 Speaker 2: Lamar had a. 543 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 7: Run where he ran to the touchdown, Jay ran him 544 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 7: all the way down. 545 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,000 Speaker 6: Was it didn't like to see the two of them 546 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:52,640 Speaker 6: kind of going out of a practice together. 547 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, you know, Lamar, they 548 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,760 Speaker 7: punched the ball out today. It wasn't Jaiyere, but I 549 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,199 Speaker 7: think it might have been Jail and Lamar was kind 550 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 7: of mad, but he couldn't get too many. He says, 551 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,120 Speaker 7: you know, it's and I told him, I said that's 552 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 7: your defense too, and he goes, yeah, yeah, they gotta 553 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 7: they gonna they gotta attack the football, and he was 554 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 7: congratulating him. But yeah, I think those two guys, you 555 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,719 Speaker 7: are going back to Louisville and having that that relationship 556 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 7: is good. It's it's good for both of them. They 557 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 7: wanted to be together. But you know, just from my perspective, 558 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:20,960 Speaker 7: it's really good for Lamar to have a guy that 559 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 7: you know, he goes back with like that into college 560 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 7: and it's really cool. 561 00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: Iran out there is warring. 562 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 6: Michael Pearce's fifty eight. How did that reunion come about? 563 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:31,840 Speaker 6: What role are you envisioned for him? 564 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, I came about because he's you know, I think 565 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,639 Speaker 7: he still wants to play, and maybe he came to 566 00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 7: that conclusion. I know Eric's been talking to him for 567 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 7: a few months and he was in the works for 568 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,960 Speaker 7: a while and uh and he played well last year, 569 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 7: so you know, as long as he can still play 570 00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 7: and help us. He's a great guy, great kind of 571 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 7: guy you want on your team. Gives us really good 572 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 7: depth in there. I'm a whole surprise he weren't fifty 573 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,200 Speaker 7: eight you know, it's a different jersey. Probably it will 574 00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:01,000 Speaker 7: be the same exact jersey. Uh, but that's pretty That's 575 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 7: also very cool. 576 00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 2: John. 577 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 6: We've heard about the juice and the energy that like 578 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 6: Jay Year has brought to practice. Hees curious. I mean 579 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 6: Chuck has brought his own Chuck mcgono has brought his 580 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:14,159 Speaker 6: own level of that. What's what's that been like for 581 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 6: you just in terms of the type of impact he's 582 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 6: having back there. 583 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, Chuck is probably like the coaching version of the Gayer, 584 00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 7: you know, with that. Chuck has always been that guy. 585 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 7: He's always been a juice guy. You know, he's always 586 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 7: been a guy that great coach, great teacher, definitely, but 587 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 7: also just great fun, great energy, always upbeat, you know, 588 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:33,440 Speaker 7: always positive. 589 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 4: Uh. 590 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 7: Didn't they do a circle around him and all jump 591 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 7: up and down after the win interception? 592 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 2: There? 593 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:39,720 Speaker 7: The Jyer guy, you know, and they kind of crowded 594 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 7: around Chuck was leading to charge on that that. You know, 595 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 7: like we said, it's sports, it's supposed to be like that. 596 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 7: It's supposed to be fun. 597 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 3: I'd fall up and something you said the other day, 598 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 3: you were this wasn't a factor today obviously with the weather, 599 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 3: but you welcomed. 600 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:53,680 Speaker 6: The heat earlier in the week. 601 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 3: How do you with the with the really big players, 602 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 3: the biggest lineman, how do you sort of balance wanting 603 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 3: them to sort of fight through things mentally with making sure. 604 00:25:02,800 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 2: That they're okay. 605 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 7: It's a great question, and you know, we've got a 606 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 7: lot of science behind that. So we know now based 607 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 7: on history, based on measurements, how much like how much 608 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 7: loading we want with what temperature degrees to based on 609 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 7: the history of it, to minimize the injuries as much 610 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 7: as possible, in other words, to build the kind of 611 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 7: stamina that you want. And what we're looking at is 612 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 7: the preseason and the first four games of the regular 613 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:25,920 Speaker 7: season to minimize the injuries. 614 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 2: So everything's built that way. 615 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 7: We even have a deal if they can get to 616 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 7: the next four practices, it ups their their chances of 617 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,159 Speaker 7: less likely to be injured by eight to ten percent. 618 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,399 Speaker 7: So it's just you know, I don't know how he 619 00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 7: figures that out, but that's. 620 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 2: Part of it. 621 00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 7: With that, they're wearing monitors, So they're wearing the catapult 622 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 7: monitors that measure their heart rate to measure their core temperature, 623 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 7: so we know our people are watching every single guy. 624 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 7: So it's not like the old days, we didn't know 625 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 7: where somebody was at. Now we know where they're at, 626 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 7: so we actually know if they can you know, if 627 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 7: they can handle it or not. And we haven't had 628 00:25:58,280 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 7: anybody get to the point where they can't. We've had 629 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 7: some throwing up and things like that, but they haven't 630 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,600 Speaker 7: been to the point where they couldn't they were in 631 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,840 Speaker 7: any kind of trouble. So, you know, we just have 632 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 7: to trust the science with it. 633 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 5: With the Left Guard competition, do you have kind of 634 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,639 Speaker 5: an idea when you want to have have that settled? 635 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 7: By yeah, I mean I want to have it settled 636 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 7: now today and uh and uh, you know, but I 637 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,680 Speaker 7: think by uh, we'll know by the end of the 638 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 7: next game probably, you know, I just I Andrew's got 639 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 7: the lead. You know, Andrew, Andrew Vorhies is in the lead. 640 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 7: Something would have to change. But Ben is I will say, Ben, 641 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 7: have you know, He'll tell you first three or four 642 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 7: days didn't look too good. Then the next three or 643 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 7: four days looked real good. So good for Ben. You know, 644 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 7: Andrews looked good all the way through, so he's in 645 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:41,360 Speaker 7: the lead. 646 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 2: At this point. 647 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 6: We didn't see you Demontis walk around there is he dealing. 648 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 7: With the Yeah, he's dealing with, you know, a soft 649 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,640 Speaker 7: tissue deal. Just want to make sure he's okay. He's 650 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 7: put a lot of mileage in uh A couple of 651 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 7: different guys like that. You just kind of want to 652 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:57,600 Speaker 7: ease him up a little bit of times. 653 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to the Ravens Press Pass podcast, and 654 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 1: don't forget to subscribe to this feed as well as 655 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: the Lounge podcast where our team insiders break down all 656 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: Thanks Ravens, thanks again for listening, and we'll see you 657 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: again tomorrow
