I didn't say it was 16 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 1: seemingly going that way. I just said he's got a 17 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: hit flexer. He just got looked at by the by. 18 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: The doctor's got an MRI.

Yeah, just he's he's not gonna 23 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: practice day, but they did not say. I just actually 24 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: spoke to him a few minutes ago when we got 25 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: back that he's he's gonna be out. He was the 26 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: three guys that haven't practiced it all this week a 27 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: chance in your mind veterans. So we'll see. I'm not 28 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: saying they're they're definitely gonna play, and I'm not saying 29 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:31,679 Speaker 1: they're not. We'll see how it goes. That belt will 30 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: be okay and who is ill. He'll be okay with 31 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 1: the MRI show. I just talked to him, So he's 32 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: got to have flexor so he's got Is. 33 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 2: This something that either aggravated in the game. 34 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: Or no, it is in practice yesterday. 35 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 3: Yes, you mentioned that he. 36 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 2: Has kind of a history of nagging, growing is true 37 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: in college. Is something he's had to manage. I know 38 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 2: that those aren't the exact same, but they're, you know close. 39 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 2: So have you guys kind of worked that throughout the 40 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,079 Speaker 2: year maintenance and stuff with him. 41 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:13,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean yesterday was happened in practice. Again, every 42 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: injury is a little bit different. Hopeful that he'll be 43 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 1: ready to play, but can't say he will be or not. 44 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 3: With all these all the injury questions that you have 45 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 3: to deal with it every week. There a extra emphasis 46 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 3: on guys to be ready for an opportunity on Sunday. 47 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, they're getting all the reps. Yeah, so i'd say, 48 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: you know, the practice squad, guys on the defensive line 49 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: are basically taking every rep and they'll have to be ready. 50 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: If guys like you know, Davidson, he'll be on the 51 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: injury report, I'm not sure if he's going to be 52 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: ready to go. We're not going to be ready to go. 53 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: So guys like Garcia, Casey Rogers, obviously Dirden we just signed. 54 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: So they're getting the're getting a lot of reps here 55 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: these last couple of days, and they're gonna have to be. 56 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:03,520 Speaker 4: Ready to go. Different Is it difficult for players to 57 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 4: h to compete and they see the top names of 58 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 4: the biggest stars on the team falling off and getting 59 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 4: that make it more difficult to go out there on Sunday? 60 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: No, I mean, I think, you know, for guys that 61 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,239 Speaker 1: are are getting opportunity that maybe haven't had an opportunity, 62 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 1: they're they're excited about the opportunity. For for some of 63 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: these young guys that that haven't played a lot of football, 64 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 1: just in the NFL in general. So I think each 65 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: person is focused on what they can do, practice, how 66 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: they need to practice, prepare, how they need to prepare 67 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: so they can go out there and and put their 68 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: best stuff on tape each and every week. Whether it's 69 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: you know, again the guy like Casey Rogers who's a 70 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: practice squad defensive linement or Durden who just got here 71 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 1: U some of the tackles that we've been repping in there. Again, 72 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 1: it's you know, we wish we had Dexter and Andrew 73 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: Thomas and those guys, but we don't necessariality the NFL. 74 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: So they're looking forward to the opportunity, which will be 75 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: a big challenge. It's a small detail, but we kind 76 00:03:57,400 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: of talked about it on Wednesday with the captains. 77 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 2: If you only have one happened, are you going to 78 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 2: name others to. 79 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: Kind of go out there. Yeah, I'll I'll have some 80 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: guys that that go out there with them, you know, 81 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: guys that are kind of been in the leadership, you 82 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:11,680 Speaker 1: know that I have meetings with and talk to.
