1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Obviously a pretty new Z day. As far as what's 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: going on with the quarterback position, as when the team leaders, 3 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 1: what's kind of been your your take on it and 4 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: kind of gauge the temperature of the locker room right now. 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, I don't know much about the situation, 6 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 2: Like complete honesty. I came out to practice. I saw 7 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 2: there's only three quarterbacks out there. Tray's not out there, 8 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,759 Speaker 2: so I mean, I'm trying to ask around what's going on. 9 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:30,840 Speaker 2: There's not a clear answer right now. Obviously, love Trey. 10 00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:32,919 Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on with them right now 11 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: or what's what's gonna be next. But yeah, we just 12 00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 2: gotta keep preparing, get ready, we have game on Friday, 13 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 2: keep preparing towards Pittsburg. Getting better. But with the Q stuff, 14 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 2: I'm not I'm honestly not even sure what exactly is 15 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 2: going on. 16 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 3: So life in the NFL you kind of focus on 17 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 3: next day preparation and don't concern yourself with your teammates 18 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:56,080 Speaker 3: and that that kind of thing. 19 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, there's so much that goes on behind 20 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: the scenes that you honestly don't even know about it. Obviously, 21 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: there's a football part of it. There's a business part 22 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 2: of it. There's things that you can't control and that 23 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 2: you can control. My my biggest thing is always controlling 24 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 2: the controllables. Uh, doing what I can to be the 25 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 2: best player, best teammate, best leader I can for our team. 26 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,120 Speaker 2: So we just got to control we can control. At 27 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 2: this point, what were the unclear answers? You've got to 28 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 2: be honest, I don't really even know. It's honestly just 29 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 2: like a cloud right now. I'm not even sure. Like 30 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:29,960 Speaker 2: it was just weird seeing three guys out there. I 31 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,960 Speaker 2: didn't know which trade was so and it was not 32 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 2: like it was kind of It wasn't something that would 33 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 2: have to be addressed. It was another workday to go 34 00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 2: out there and get better. And I know they'll handle 35 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 2: that however they need to handle it. 36 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,279 Speaker 4: What have you seen from from Sham going up against 37 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 4: Tam this summer? Have you seen progress in the in 38 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 4: the practices? 39 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, Sam's looked good. I've really liked how he's progressed. 40 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 2: I think obviously being a veteran at the position, the 41 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: arm talent isn't is insane, you know. See that was 42 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 2: the reason why he was drafted as as he was 43 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: back when me and him both came out in eighteen. 44 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 2: But I think he's I think he's looked good. I 45 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 2: think he's continued to get better every day. 46 00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 3: On the arm talent part, I mean just. 47 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,040 Speaker 2: Being able to make like some crazy looking throws. You know, 48 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: like some guys can just flick the football with these, 49 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: and he's one of those guys. You know, he's always 50 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 2: I think his biggest thing is always trying to make 51 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 2: sure he's improving on his decision making and getting the 52 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 2: ball where it needs to be protecting the football. But 53 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 2: I mean he can make every throw in the book. 54 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 4: You consider yourself a leader out there in terms of 55 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:38,359 Speaker 4: setting tempo and such. Have you seen the kind of tempo, professionalism, 56 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 4: everything you want to see out of this camp from 57 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 4: beginning to now. 58 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,959 Speaker 2: Just as as a team, Yeah, yeah, I like it. 59 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 2: I love exactly where we are right now. I think 60 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 2: we just got to keep building to be the best 61 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 2: team we can for Week one Pittsburgh, making sure we 62 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: have the best fifty three obviously the best practice aquad 63 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 2: we can get. I think we've grown up a team, 64 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 2: you know, going into that pre that second pre or 65 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: that first preseason game against the Raiders, you know, I 66 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 2: think that was a good little kind of check for us, 67 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 2: a little gut check to see where we were at 68 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 2: and grow from it. I like how we competed last 69 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 2: week in that preseason game, and we're just gonna keep climbing, 70 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:15,320 Speaker 2: keep going. 71 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:16,640 Speaker 1: A lot o the. 72 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 4: Coaches players have talked about, like looking back at last. 73 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: Year, Purty's fearlessness like at Deebo City, saw like the 74 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,399 Speaker 3: second preseason gave me Houston. 75 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 2: It's like. 76 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:27,280 Speaker 1: Before. 77 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 4: But I mean, did that stand out that he was 78 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 4: given his situation and didn't. 79 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 3: Look uh like a you know, mister relevant. 80 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I I've spoken on it. You guys 81 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 2: know how I feel about Party and what I saw 82 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 2: from him early on. Did I think that he was 83 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 2: gonna become the player that he did throughout the p 84 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: like the po uh end of the season in postseason 85 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 2: last year. No, I don't think anybody could have seen 86 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: that coming. You know, the poison, the the ability to 87 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 2: to play the position the way he did, and so 88 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 2: for him, it's just about stacking it, you know, overcoming 89 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,839 Speaker 2: this injury that he had to rehab and go through 90 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 2: and being a you know, continuing to just grow. He's 91 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 2: obviously super young and I I love the w his 92 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 2: demeanor out there, the way that he prepares and goes 93 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 2: about his craft. So this guy's a limit. 94 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 3: Pray yesterday yesterday and practice you and you and Mason 95 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 3: got into it a little bit, and then Demo and 96 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 3: Mason got into it. Do you look at yourself as 97 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 3: kind of the emotional tone setter of that defense at 98 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 3: and do you have a certain standard that you want 99 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 3: to see the rest of the defense play too, Yeah. 100 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 2: One hundred percent.
