1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,760
Speaker 1: That's what That's the moment we all wanted. Obviously it wasn't.

2
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 1: The weather wasn't the way we wanted it to be.

3
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 1: But I mean, like I say, first game, we got

4
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:09,560
Speaker 1: a lot to learn from. We get to look at

5
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 1: the film in thirty minutes to our to see where

6
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: we could be better at. So I'll probably have a

7
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 1: couple more answers after that. When it comes to your

8
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:20,200
Speaker 1: connectivity with Drake, how do you see that involved in

9
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:20,640
Speaker 1: week two?

10
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 2: Where do you want to see it progress overall?

11
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,759
Speaker 1: Offensively, I think I think the connection was good. It

12
00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:28,720
Speaker 1: always can be better, but it goes back to practice,

13
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: you know, practicing Wednesday, full padded day, getting full speed looks,

14
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: then coming in Thursday and just getting it back together.

15
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: So I mean we got two three opportunities to work

16
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:40,159
Speaker 1: on that. It'll be better for we two. What's the

17
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:43,440
Speaker 1: post of this locker room right now heading into next week?

18
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: No tough loss, obviously, I think everybody feel the same way. Well,

19
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,760
Speaker 1: just gotta be better next week. I think we all

20
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: know what we need to do. So just a matter

21
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: getting done your life good.

22
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,320
Speaker 2: To get that first game out of the way, you

23
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 2: gotta get a feel for what you need to do now.

24
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's always a nervousness first game out.

25
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: But I think, like I said, I think I handled

26
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,319
Speaker 1: the rain well. You know, that was kind of the

27
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 1: thing I was worried about. I don't really too much

28
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,559
Speaker 1: like the ring games, but just focusing on the ball

29
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 1: more so, I think that was good. I think you

30
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: like the heat, right, Yeah, yeah, he's always good.

31
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:19,839
Speaker 2: You're looking forward to Sunday.

32
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, in more ways going up against.

33
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,839
Speaker 1: The team that you know in divisional coon, Like you said,

34
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,199
Speaker 1: divisional opponus, So I mean it's a big game.

35
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 3: Go back to the team too. Obviously, we know we

36
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 3: need to do so.

37
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 1: I think we got six days to a game day,

38
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:33,880
Speaker 1: so just got.

39
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 3: Un lock in focus.

40
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 2: I know you worked really hard. You saw season from

41
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 2: an individual that was your hard work came on. Yeah.

42
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,520
Speaker 1: Like you said, we've been working since AGA is going

43
00:01:45,560 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: in the training camp and I just transferring training camp

44
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,320
Speaker 1: to the field. So I think I think that's been great.

45
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 2: To see people are still sleeping out of countless.

46
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 1: I think what I would say, I think people failed

47
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: to realize that at one point in time I was

48
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: a first round pick. So just before my surgery, I

49
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,800
Speaker 1: think a lot of people doubt that I can do

50
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:08,920
Speaker 1: what I'll do, But I mean I always knew what

51
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 1: I can do. But to some people it is surprised,

52
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,799
Speaker 1: but to me, it's just it's always what I used

53
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 1: to do. Pick you up in fantasy football for yeah,

54
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 1: if you want to cast you know in the NFL,

55
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: and also to pick stuff don't matter.

56
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 2: You know, it's all about.

57
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: Competitions, even even skills everywhere you go.

58
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 2: So give it what you're ceiling when it comes to

59
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 2: what you want to pomplish.

60
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 3: I think just as far as ceiling, you know, I'll

61
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 3: take you week by week.

62
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: I try to stay away from the predictions because you

63
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: get too caught up and you need to do this,

64
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: you need to do that on the mold. But just

65
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,200
Speaker 1: let it play out kind of guys.

66
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, appreciating the summer and just competing in that safety rum.

67
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,200
Speaker 4: It seems like there's been some changes, but you know,

68
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 4: being able to show what you can do.

69
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 3: Uh, what was that? Like?

70
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 5: Man, it was cool to just come in and you know,

71
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 5: be with the same guys I was with last year.

72
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,160
Speaker 5: That was the fun part, you know, to connect even more.

73
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 5: You know, we drive each other every day and compete

74
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 5: with each other and help each other out.

75
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,160
Speaker 3: It was you know, he's been in a brotherhood back

80
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,360
Speaker 5: good time just going out there competing daily and having

81
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 5: fun and learning from each other and just getting better

82
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:27,639
Speaker 5: for a you know.

83
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 3: You feel like you're able to show the coaching staffs.

84
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 3: I'll just you know, show them who I am, you know,

85
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 3: just as a person.

89
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 5: know that's really it. I'll just focus on what I

90
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 5: can control, and you know I can control myself. And

91
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 5: now I showed up in my attitude and effort and

92
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 5: that's just what I tried to do every day.

93
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: What needs to happen out going into Miami, and and

94
00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: how much you're already looking forward to that.

95
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 3: Opportunity for sure.

96
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 5: I mean today we got cleaned up today. Tell the truth,

97
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. Looking at mere day, clean

98
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,200
Speaker 5: that up first and foremost before we move on and

99
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 5: then soon as we don't with the type man flesh it,

100
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, and go on to a

101
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 5: divisional opponent and uh honeing on the details and take

102
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 5: advantage and trying to come out with a wins.

103
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 3: So where do you feel like you improved the most

104
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 3: in the off season?

105
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 5: You know, I always focused on different points of my game.

106
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,480
Speaker 5: You know, there's different things you know, from the knowledge standpoint,

107
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 5: from a movement standpoint, uh coverage standpoint.

108
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 3: So I tried to hone in on all those little things.

109
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 5: And you know, I feel like year to year I

110
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:40,479
Speaker 5: always improved on something or improved as a whole just

111
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 5: from experience and everything like that. So so like, you know,

112
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 5: just from the off season, I looked at what my

113
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,039
Speaker 5: false would last year and things I can improve on

114
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 5: and try to improve on that.

115
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 3: I mean, did you comfort level with Craig out there?

116
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 3: It was cool, man, It was good. He handled himself

117
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 3: real well, communicated real well. I was out there talking.

118
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 5: Didn't let the big crowd out and big noises uh

119
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,160
Speaker 5: get to him. But he did. He did his thing.

120
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 5: You know, it's only built. We only can build from

121
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 5: here and uh but that chemistry in that connection. It's

122
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 5: cool that we have a connection from being at categether

123
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 5: you know, and stuff like that. So there's some chemistry

124
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,640
Speaker 5: there and knowing each other for a while and talking

125
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,119
Speaker 5: to each other for many So yeah, it's just about

126
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 5: just building, you know, and uh in a w that's

127
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:26,240
Speaker 5: just the main thing.

128
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,840
Speaker 3: So perfectly than.

129
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 4: Obviously you know you want to run the ball a

130
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:38,360
Speaker 4: little bit more balance and be more balanced. I think, uh,

131
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 4: the biggest thing is just playing complimentary football. You know,

132
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 4: when our defense gets stops like that and we get

133
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 4: the ball on the short field, being able to convert

134
00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 4: whether it's a field goal or touchdown, just to get

135
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 4: points on the board. Even with the kickoff return that

136
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 4: Antonio sorry Antonio Gibson had, you know, you get the

137
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 4: ball on the forty yard line, like you got to

138
00:05:56,920 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 4: get points on the board. So but I think that

139
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 4: I identity, you know, I think when you look at

140
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 4: the film, is that you know, the identity that we

141
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 4: want to play with is there. We played all the

142
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 4: way to the end, but obviously, you know you want

143
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 4: to leave with a win, so you know, we got

144
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 4: to look ourselves in the mirror and obviously correct some

145
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 4: things and do the things that we did really good

146
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 4: make those things better, and the things that we didn't

147
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:21,680
Speaker 4: do so well, make those better as well.

148
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 2: I know you've worked as a mentor for Will, and

149
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,240
Speaker 2: I'm not asking you to comment specifically on his play,

150
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 2: but what do you tell a rookie after a second

151
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 2: half like that? It seemed, you know, from upstairs he

152
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 2: had a bit of a rough stretch there in the

153
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 2: second half.

154
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 3: You know what happens.

155
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,360
Speaker 4: I mean, whether you're year one, year twelve, like, you're

156
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,000
Speaker 4: going to go through phases in the game like they

157
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,600
Speaker 4: get paid just like we do, and it's for you

158
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 4: to be the professional that you are and to kind

159
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,479
Speaker 4: of hone back onto techniques and things like that. But

160
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 4: I told him, I said, look, my first start was

161
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 4: against Alden Smith, So it happens. You know what you

162
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 4: learn from that, you know, And I think game one

163
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 4: is always the hardest, right because when you look at

164
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 4: film like people are playing, Vanilla looks not giving you

165
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 4: too much information. So you get out there on Sundays

166
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 4: and see some things that you probably didn't see on tape,

167
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:08,880
Speaker 4: and you got to go out there and block them.

168
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 4: So I think, you know, overall, I think both of

169
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 4: those guys, young guys on the other side, they took

170
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 4: a step forward, and obviously you know they're gonna get

171
00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:18,280
Speaker 4: challenged every week being a young side, but they I know,

172
00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,320
Speaker 4: you know, mentally and physically, they're prepared to do that.

173
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 4: We've been at this.

174
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 2: For a while.

175
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,400
Speaker 1: How how do you get the run getting to where

176
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: you want to be?

177
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 3: It's just reps together. How does it work?

178
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 4: It's just reps man, you know, reps together and then

179
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 4: obviously having confidence in it, you know, you know, for

180
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,880
Speaker 4: us is uh, you know, obviously the game went the

181
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 4: way it did, but obviously you want you got three

182
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 4: three headed monster back there and the running backs and

183
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:43,760
Speaker 4: skills that we have. You know, you want to get

184
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 4: the ball into your best players. And obviously we'll do

185
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 4: that moving forward and we'll continue just you know, sharpening ourselves.

186
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 2: You know.

187
00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:52,640
Speaker 4: Obviously we have great opportunities to go against our defense

188
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,280
Speaker 4: this week, who played the hell of a game. I thought,

189
00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,600
Speaker 4: you know, they had stretches where they you know, they

190
00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 4: forced the force the pocket, forced the ball out and

191
00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,200
Speaker 4: things like that. So we get to go against those

192
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 4: guys every day, So we'll be challenged and we'll be

193
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:03,880
Speaker 4: prepared to step.

194
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 3: Up, get along those lines.

195
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 5: What what have keys to have an effective screen game?

196
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 2: And yesterday and the Raiders, you're well prepared for it.

197
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,560
Speaker 4: Execution, it's hard to say, you know, obviously, you know,

198
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,960
Speaker 4: you try to prepare for certain looks and things like that,

199
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,920
Speaker 4: but uh, you know, sometimes it just happens like that.

200
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,840
Speaker 4: You know. You know, obviously they were prepared for whatever

201
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 4: looks that we're gonna we're getting. They were prepared for him.

202
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,160
Speaker 4: And then that's kudos to them. And they did the

203
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 4: the film study to be able to study and have

204
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 4: those looks.

205
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 3: And but it's for us to get getting execute.

206
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,400
Speaker 4: You know, whether it's the first guy out to get

207
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 4: the hugger, the man that's one man, the man, whatever

208
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 4: the case is, we got to execute those things and

209
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 4: that stuff that's part of our game that we can

210
00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:44,360
Speaker 4: take to another level. And that's part of our game

211
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 4: and getting the ball into our playmaker's hands. So I think,

212
00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:49,720
Speaker 4: you know, it just takes all of them to be

213
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:54,839
Speaker 4: balanced and and and get the thing going. You know,

214
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 4: I think they just you know, you know, just looking

215
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 4: at the film, man, you know, the backers played really

216
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 4: well Downhill. You know, obviously Devin White's been around for

217
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 4: a long time, and then you know, they came in

218
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 4: with Jamal Adams, who has always been a fiery plug

219
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,800
Speaker 4: in this NFL. But I think, you know, we just

220
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 4: got to continue getting the hat on the hat and

221
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 4: you know, hopefully those two yard runs turn into five

222
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 4: and then those five yard runs turn into ten and

223
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 4: then we get the ball moving.

224
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 2: You know, but going down south isn't easy.

225
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 3: How much do you look forward to flushing this one?

226
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,959
Speaker 3: Correcting which correcting, having an opportunity and we two.

227
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 4: I mean, it's a long season. You know, it's week one,

228
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 4: and this is obviously it's the first time all eleven

229
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,840
Speaker 4: of us have played together, you know, so you know,

230
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 4: just you know, obviously shaking this one off, going through

231
00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 4: the film, being honest about your approach, what you can

232
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 4: do better as in your one on ones as a person,

233
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 4: as a football player, as a professional.

234
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 3: Bring that into this.

235
00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 4: Week and getting ready for a team. Man, getting ready

236
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 4: for a team is that's hungry like us, So being

237
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 4: able to do those things and execute, it's gonna be

238
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 4: big for us this week.

239
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:48,840
