1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 1: How you guys doing good? Cam? How are you real good?

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 1: Real goods? Been just getting back out here kind of

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,239
Speaker 1: you're able to get coop stop out here instead of

4
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: all that virtual stuff. That's a lot of different things.

5
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: That's you know, different this go around. Um, but it's

6
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 1: all good. It's all a part of the process. Seeing

7
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:20,639
Speaker 1: the fans. That's that's one of the things that you know,

8
00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:24,920
Speaker 1: I really enjoy. Um, you know, having having more understanding

9
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,159
Speaker 1: of things, uh, new personnel that's out there. You know,

10
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,480
Speaker 1: there's some things that you got to iron out, uh

11
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:36,160
Speaker 1: tab bit missus. But yet knowing that we got another

12
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:41,480
Speaker 1: day to to to make their proper corrections. So cams

13
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,040
Speaker 1: are started and that's how it's gonna be like that.

14
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 1: Obviously we're treating it like it's a quarterback. Do you

15
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: perceive it as a competition yourself? Are you like? Ever

16
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 1: since I've been here, it has been a quarterback competition.

17
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 1: I think that's the that's in essence the underlining Patriot way.

18
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,040
Speaker 1: You know, every every position has a competition there and

19
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,560
Speaker 1: and the quarterback position is no different. You know, Brian

20
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 1: Horry is supposed to make me better. I'm supposed to

21
00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 1: make Mac Jones better. Mac Jones is supposed to make

22
00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 1: you know, uh, you know Brian Horry better. You can't

23
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,039
Speaker 1: forget about De la Gata and even Stitty that's in

24
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: the balance and and uh, you know, shout out to him.

25
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: Hopefully everything went good for him. But but you know,

26
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 1: for us, it's just the mentality to have that championship,

27
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: you know, mental toughness each and every day, and and

28
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 1: and the desire to get better. You're going about stocking

29
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,240
Speaker 1: the field days together. How do you go about stocking

30
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 1: and loose good days to gotta make sure you're work consistent. Well,

31
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 1: that's what that's the challenges of training camp. Consistency is key. Uh,

32
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,759
Speaker 1: coming out each and every day with a fresh news start,

33
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 1: no matter what the day before it happened, and no

34
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,920
Speaker 1: matter what to play before it happened. And uh, that's

35
00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: what you gotta just get be. I wanted to ask

36
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 1: you you mention get I got a rough a little

37
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: bit about the session. It's the little one at the

38
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: end of practice, seem like he was down and you

39
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: spent some time stuff and then you spend some time

40
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 1: as talking to us y'all see that. Well, yeah, we're

41
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: all everything up here, I know, what what you guys

42
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: talking about bring It's to be honest with you, it's

43
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 1: still a learning process. And I told Mac this yesteron

44
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: and you know, he doesn't know me yet. I don't

45
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: know him yet as far as comfort, you know, I've

46
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,280
Speaker 1: been around Brian long enough for him to know how

47
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,639
Speaker 1: to get get me going. Obviously stitty and and us.

48
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: So you know, just a couple of months with with

49
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: with Mac, you know, he's he's a person that over

50
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: time you'll get to understand and note. You know, he

51
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 1: may be a guy that you just got a high

52
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 1: but afterwards, or he may be a guy who just

53
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 1: leave him alone and let him come back to himself.

54
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: But as a young player man, you know that what

55
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 1: your expectations are and you know that you're better than

56
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: what you're producing. And even it still happens with me.

57
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you're eleven years in, one year,

58
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 1: in fourteen years in. You know, for us, it's it's

59
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 1: knowing that we had a standard that we have to

60
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 1: meet each and every day, and of course it's going

61
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 1: to be disappointment when you don't meet it. But yet,

62
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: you know, Mac has been great, Brian has been great,

63
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 1: everybody's just trying to learn each other and just trying

64
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 1: to be the best teammates we can as much as

65
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,519
Speaker 1: possible can. You see, none of us dwell on the

66
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,040
Speaker 1: past too much. But when you look back in twenty twenty,

67
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,200
Speaker 1: what did you want to fix personally? You look at it.

68
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: I got to fix this. I mean, twenty twenty is

69
00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:24,959
Speaker 1: over with, you know what I'm saying. I'm tired of

70
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: dwelling on that. You know, my my main focus now

71
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: is just trying to get better than to be the

72
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,600
Speaker 1: best quarterback that I could possibly be for the New

73
00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 1: England Patriots here moving forward and trying to come out

74
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: here each and every day and using this as an

75
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: opportunity to do that. You were doing warm ups, I

76
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 1: know you kind of rethrew a throw me. You were

77
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 1: kind of like like you wanted to try it again,

78
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: and you kind of did like a like a step

79
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 1: Like we're trying to remind yourself just something mechanically, like

80
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: in terms of just what kinds of things are you

81
00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: trying to always remind yourself of in terms of your

82
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: mechanics are just like your process of going through every

83
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 1: throw I mean to not overthink you know things, you know,

84
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 1: you just have to a self diagnostic you know, check in,

85
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 1: you know, with yourself when you don't feel like certain

86
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: things are hitting the way it's supposed to, as far

87
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: as pop zip on the ball, uh, filling your feet

88
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: in the ground, understanding that you got a little bit

89
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: more power to uncoil. You know, you still have to

90
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: check in with yourself and know that you know hard.

91
00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: You know, my feet planet is my shoulders and my

92
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 1: feet involved and not just throwing it, you know, with

93
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,679
Speaker 1: my arms. So you know, it's it's it's a full

94
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 1: body type of technique that the arm gets the credit for.

95
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: So whatever. Physically at the beginning of this year than

96
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: you were at the beginning of last year. Physically, yeah, physically,

97
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: I didn't do anything this offseason as far as you know,

98
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 1: any procedures, and that helps. So, you know, when you

99
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: got more time with the kids, more time with the family,

100
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 1: more time to really focusing on yourself physically and mentally,

101
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 1: you know, it's you feel a little different, more confident.

102
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 1: You did an interview with Cigarficionado where you said you're

103
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 1: not going to be a battering ram anymore. Is that

104
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: just sort of an acknowledgement, that's what they said. I

105
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 1: think you're not gonna You're not gonna see that kind

106
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: of player anymore when you run the ball. Is that

107
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,799
Speaker 1: just an acknowledgement of like you gotta I'm getting older? Yeah,

108
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: you know, you just have to move a little differently.

109
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: You know, it's not about um, you know, proving certain things.

110
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: I mean, we all know what I can do running

111
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: the football at this particular point of time, and if

112
00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:32,559
Speaker 1: it needs and if it needs to come to those things,

113
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: I'm willing to risk it all. But yet if it

114
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: doesn't require that, then of course you have to be

115
00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,920
Speaker 1: a little bit more mental because of Nick and the bruise.

116
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 1: At where I'm at, it sticks a little longer than

117
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 1: it's just a day, and then you know, I'm going

118
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: about your business like you get old like me? Oh

119
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,640
Speaker 1: about how it's still a learning process? Like Mac doesn't

120
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,160
Speaker 1: know you. You don't really know Mac for what you

121
00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 1: know right now? Mac, how would you describe man cool

122
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 1: like the other side of the pillow? You know what

123
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You know, you never know and he when

124
00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:10,080
Speaker 1: when he's really you know, down on himself. You don't

125
00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,840
Speaker 1: really necessarily know when you know you know he's up either,

126
00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, he's he's real cool. I'm

127
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 1: surprised is his um knowing list, knowingness of you know,

128
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: hip hop music. You know he catch them in the

129
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 1: locker room Marytown. You know what I'm saying. Quote with

130
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,599
Speaker 1: some some future some baby, you know what I mean.

131
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: But you know, those are things that you just got

132
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 1: to learn with time. You know, we had an opportunity

133
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 1: to meet in the OTAs, but you don't really get it.

134
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 1: And then it's still another curve that's gonna get during

135
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 1: game times. It's good that we get preseason games and

136
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: things like that, so you know, uh, these live bullets.

137
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 1: So you know, I'm pretty much here for him, just

138
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 1: like Brian is here for him, just like and I hope, well,

139
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,760
Speaker 1: I know it's reciprocated on all fronts. We saw various

140
00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 1: workout sessions in the offseason. You and some of the

141
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,320
Speaker 1: guys rout her down a couple of days ago, tost

142
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,680
Speaker 1: to picture on Instagram. I think with a playbook on

143
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 1: you a lot can need to describe the difference when

144
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 1: you have an offseason where you can work with teammates

145
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: in that's that time and then also the time investor

146
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: in the playbook coming in. Well, it's not only the time.

147
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 1: It's always been a lot of time invested in the playbook.

148
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 1: But knowing what you're looking for and knowing the focusedness,

149
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,119
Speaker 1: it's not just like a fire hydrant of things coming

150
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 1: at you. You know what I'm saying. You kind of understand. Okay,

151
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: do I want to focus on front today? Do I

152
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 1: want to focus on? You know, really combination pass combinations,

153
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 1: two by two, combinations, three by one, combinations, one by three,

154
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 1: combinations and things like that. Moving forward knowing what my

155
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,800
Speaker 1: reads are and the faster that I can, you know,

156
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 1: go with the football, the bed off, it'll be going

157
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: faster with it. There's some reps where it seems like

158
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 1: it's taking why on football to come out? Why is that?

159
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 1: How do you work to improve it? Is that part

160
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: of the processor? Is it something you're like, Yeah, that's

161
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 1: It's just what training camps all about. You know what

162
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Of course, we have this mental in our

163
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 1: head that you know, in the classroom or you know,

164
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: when we're meeting. You know, coach asked the question, boom,

165
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:08,800
Speaker 1: that's where we're supposed to go at the ball. Okay,

166
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: now you got Devin mccordy is showing something, you know,

167
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: Kyle Dugger is showing something. Then all of a sudden,

168
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: you know, hot twer jumps over here, and then all

169
00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you know, it's like, okay, what do

170
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 1: I do? What do I do? What do I do?

171
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 1: It's just taking the brain a little longer at times,

172
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,720
Speaker 1: but hopefully with with with a lot of repetitions, you know,

173
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: it'd be good. Did you guys have a good defense?

174
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: So you just mentioned those guys so much? Was it

175
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: helps a lot? Helps a lot. Came a lot of

176
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 1: new pass catchers out of this year. How's the acclamation processes? Well,

177
00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 1: it's still a process. It's still a process that's going,

178
00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: you know, trying to find ways to fit their comfort zone.

179
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 1: You know, do you like a back shoulder? Do you

180
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:51,439
Speaker 1: want to go up and get it? Do you want

181
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:54,319
Speaker 1: to run past them? You know those different conversations that's

182
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,959
Speaker 1: happened via text, phone calls, you know, face to face

183
00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 1: and and we're trying to get it so, you know,

184
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,199
Speaker 1: I missed a couple of them today that I know.

185
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 1: You know, it's it needed to happen to get it

186
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:07,959
Speaker 1: on film to know, all right, Nellie, what's your thinking

Speaker 1: All right? You know what you think a right here,

189
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,800
Speaker 1: and then we coach each other up on it, and

190
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 1: then we come back here tomorrow and get better when

191
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: you share your competitive spirit to win games, to be

192
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,079
Speaker 1: number one on this team is as strong as it

193
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,720
Speaker 1: ever was in your career. It's always been there. You know,

194
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: I'm a competitive person. You want to go race right

00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:33,559
Speaker 1: now so I can show you you'll win? Yeah, I

196
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,120
Speaker 1: mean obviously you know you're you're you're reading things of

197
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: real time, and you know you're you're just like, Okay,

198
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:39,280
Speaker 1: this is where I want to go with the ball

199
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 1: right now, This is where I should go with the ball.

200
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 1: In particular with with Nelson, you know, the teams like

201
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: you've been trying to You've been trying to get him

202
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: deep for a little while. You finally got him today.

203
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: How much of that is just like it is maybe

204
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 1: purposeful in terms of like I want to, you know,

205
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,240
Speaker 1: purposefully like get this connection with you. So I'm gonna

206
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 1: give you a shot. See. The thing is, you guys

207
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,240
Speaker 1: must understand we're still in any camp right and this

208
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 1: is probably the only time that we've had this is

209
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,319
Speaker 1: the first time we've had that access to do certain

210
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 1: things and OTA's I mean, it's just so tas and

211
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 1: you can't really let it rip like you want to.

212
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,760
Speaker 1: And you know, coach is doing a great job with

213
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 1: monitoring certain focuses each and every day. So the ability

214
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: for us to just throw the ball past twenty thirty

215
00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 1: yards was the first time we've done this in months

216
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:28,559
Speaker 1: outside of meeting individually. But now you gotta line. Now

217
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,120
Speaker 1: you got to step up in the pocket. Now you

218
00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:35,280
Speaker 1: have many distractions. So yeah, you know, you know Nelly

219
00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: is here to do one thing and multiple things, of course,

220
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: but you know, we try to put guys in position,

221
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: or Josh tries to put your guys in position to

222
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 1: make plays and and do things that they're comfortable and

223
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: having days like this you find out what guys are

224
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,520
Speaker 1: comfortable at and that's what you want to kind of attack.

225
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: Let's give you enjoy you mentioned fans, how much did

226
00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 1: you enjoy a little water actual the fans yesterday in

227
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: the end zone and the then coming out each day

228
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: to applause with years. I'm not sure if you guys

229
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,839
Speaker 1: know if anything about my resume, I'm a fan. I'm

230
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,040
Speaker 1: a guy who wears his emotions on his sleeve. I

231
00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 1: need that energy, you know. Um. And then the football giveaway,

232
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,960
Speaker 1: that's nothing new for me, so I think, you know,

233
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: I plan on giving a lot of more footballs away,

234
00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: hopefully a lot more on Sundays, and you know, really

235
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: get the fans really involved, from the kids to the

236
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 1: fans and everybody alike. Lines A lot's been made, you know,

237
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 1: natural conversation going about athletes and mental focus and that

238
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,719
Speaker 1: can be kind of got to be thrown off killed

239
00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,800
Speaker 1: to what that does too mentally psychologically A lot of

240
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,120
Speaker 1: those lines, I'm just having access to people and seeing

241
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: fans and stuff. He was an athlete. How has that

242
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 1: changed the psychological be coming from last year this year?

243
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: Just how translating that it's a life? Because how does

244
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: that all work together for you have a little bit

245
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 1: of more normalcy out here than we'd be maybe over

246
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 1: last year where everybody was walking that they're volt to last.

247
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,200
Speaker 1: It's a great question, um, But yet you know we're

248
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: are professionals and everybody deals with it differently. You know,

249
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: me personally, I look forward to the fans. You know,

250
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: you you you feed off the cheers, you feel you

251
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,280
Speaker 1: feed off the ooze, the odds and even the booze,

252
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So I can't judge another person,

253
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 1: but yet it still takes We've been away from it

254
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:22,040
Speaker 1: for so long that now when you see it now,

255
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: it's almost like is this normal? You know what I'm saying,

256
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 1: Because for for a minute and I could say this bowefully,

257
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: you know, it kind of feels surreal, you know what

258
00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:34,000
Speaker 1: I mean. When you come out here, you got fans

259
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 1: screaming and hollering, and and that's a good thing. But

260
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 1: it tells you what it once was, and hopefully it

261
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 1: can stay the same. As you know, we all obviously

262
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: knows what's going on in the country right now. Cam

263
00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:49,320
Speaker 1: it's you. It's your natural inclination to be a leader

264
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:56,800
Speaker 1: or do you have to force that on with yourself? Huh?

265
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,439
Speaker 1: What I mean? Are you the type personality that likes

266
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: to lead as opposed to follow? I think you know,

267
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: by default in all of sports, you know, everybody knows

268
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 1: a quarterback to be the leader on the team, no

269
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 1: matter whether you want to be or not. And we

270
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:17,559
Speaker 1: all lead completely different. I lead completely different than Devin mccordy.

271
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:21,599
Speaker 1: I lead completely different than Matthew Slater A lead completely

272
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: different than Hottower. I lead completely different than you know,

273
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,040
Speaker 1: James White, and that doesn't make him a better leader

274
00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 1: than me or vice versa. You know, we all have

275
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 1: our roles on this team, and you know, no matter

276
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 1: what's expected, you know, you just have to make sure

277
00:13:35,720 --> 00:13:39,559
Speaker 1: that you're holding yourself accountable as you're a person who

278
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 1: leads by example first and then go about it the

279
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 1: other way. All right, Thank you, guys, Thank you
