1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,200 Speaker 1: Welcome to everybody to Wednesday edition of Texans All Access 2 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:06,480 Speaker 1: from the Honday Texans Radio Studio. Glad to be with you. 3 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 1: I am John Harris Hrost for this. That's Wednesday, but 4 00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:13,080 Speaker 1: it's in season, out of season. Wednesday is my day, 5 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 1: Monday is my day, and then Friday. I share with 6 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,320 Speaker 1: the man to my right, the voice of Texans, Mark Vanni, remark, 7 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: are you Johnny? I'm great? You know, all right, we're 8 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:25,080 Speaker 1: not letting him McCartney, right, but in the Texans radio 9 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 1: world we kind of are yeah in that you know, 10 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: we trade off singing lead, but we still harmonized together. 11 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: So okay, you're right about that letting McCartney. So is 12 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: George deepy or is George Drew? I think that I 13 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 1: would think George is deep and then Ringo is Drew. Yeah, 14 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: that's a humor wise, Yes, I think that's the way. Now, 15 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,520 Speaker 1: if we get it to the booth, you're George and 16 00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: Andre and I are letting him and there is no Ringo. 17 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: But then again, George Harrison did go out and do 18 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: a nice solo album at some point. So Harrison wrote 19 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: a lot of good beatless too, you know, and you 20 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: know George had a great solo career. George was one 21 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: of he was probably the most respected. He was the 22 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 1: technician too, like and so this kind of plays into 23 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: your world a little bit. You know, you're the only 24 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: one of the three to have coached. That's right. So 25 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 1: I appreciate the fact that I am George Harrison. I'm 26 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: trying to You're still alive, that's important. That is important. 27 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,800 Speaker 1: How many of beat is mccartey the only Ringo's alive too? Yeah, McCarney. 28 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,040 Speaker 1: Still what's Ringo's been doing? He still tours a little bit. 29 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: I think with Ringo's All Star Band. He puts together 30 00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: a band of all stars. They go around. I think 31 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 1: it's a pretty cool idea. So he's done some of 32 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 1: that stuff, and he's I believe he's older than the rest, 33 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: Although now it doesn't matter as much, but at the 34 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,839 Speaker 1: time when he joined the band and he replaced Pete Best, 35 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: that's legendary. Oh my gosh, can I say something blasphemous? 36 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: Go ahead. I was driving the other day and Sirius 37 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: xam in my wife's car. We had it on. I 38 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: was flipping the stations and I got to Channel eighteen, 39 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: which is the Beatles station. Yeah, and it came on 40 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 1: and it was on for a few sections that turn 41 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 1: it off and my daughter, who is fifteen, that's what 42 00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: are you doing? I said, oh, listen to Beatles? Oh? 43 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: And she goes, what your daughter? I love her. I 44 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: was like, yes, whatever, even listen to something else. I 45 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 1: don't listen to Beatles. And she goes, Dad, I'm shocked, 46 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 1: and she was like shocked and a paul that I 47 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 1: did not want to listen to it? So great, It's 48 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 1: like good for her. She's a very old She's an 49 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: old soul. I mean, she canna hear that and think 50 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: that I'm calling it. She's an old soul. I mean 51 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 1: she she loves she she likes Beatles, which I was 52 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,399 Speaker 1: I found out, but she loves the eighties, anything about 53 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: the eighties or seventies. She likes to dress and seventies clothes. 54 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 1: I'm like, you know who the Beatles of rap are, 55 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:41,080 Speaker 1: in my opinions now, the straight out of competent guys. 56 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because it existed obviously, just like rock and 57 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: roll existed before the Beatles, but they took it to 58 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: a whole other level. And I think that's what the 59 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 1: NWA guys did. I could see that. That's a very 60 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: interesting demand. Another the Mots listening going no, y'all wrong? 61 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 1: The Beatles, I could. I think I'm right the game. 62 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,600 Speaker 1: I think WA changed the game. There's no question, no doubt. 63 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: I think I got this one. Although I'm no expert 64 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,960 Speaker 1: in the field, trust me on this. Oh, by the way, 65 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: I know you have things to do, but I wanted 66 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 1: to clean up one thing from yesterday. Okay, who's a 67 00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: player from practice yesterday that I really enjoyed watching? And 68 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 1: I thought he had a good practice because the week 69 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: before I thought Sammy Coates was a highlight when they 70 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: were practicing in the bubble getting out of the heat. 71 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: They were outside yesterday and Braxton Miller had the kind 72 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: of practice that made it was one of those and 73 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,080 Speaker 1: we talk about this with all our training camp shows. 74 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: One of those. I'm still here. Yeah, you know what, 75 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: you guys haven't been talking about me enough. So here 76 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: I am catching a lot of balls today just to 77 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:44,840 Speaker 1: make you notice that I'm still on the roster and 78 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: I will be reckoned with come Greenbrier time. He just 79 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: drew and I talked about it on the field. We're 80 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: talking and Braxton made it catching got a field in 81 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: dreda City man. He looks faster, and it's interesting when 82 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: you say that about it an NFL player, Well, he 83 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: looks faster because guys typically don't get faster in their careers. 84 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: Don't think get the NFL. They are what they are. 85 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: If anything, ether, they're gonna lose a step in time. 86 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,839 Speaker 1: But can you play faster? That's exactly right. That's the point. 87 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: He's playing much faster, and I think that's really that's 88 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: helping him. Obviously, no pads, but for the receiving game 89 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: and for the passing game, it doesn't really matter because 90 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: you're getting to the areas you need to, you're catching 91 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: the football, and when he's catching it and then getting 92 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: a field, then he's making people miss You're right, it's 93 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,720 Speaker 1: don't forget about me, Braxton Miller. Well, let me ask 94 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: you this, Johnny, because we always say with him, all right, 95 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 1: he's learning the position. He wasn't a receiver original as 96 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: a quarterback at Ohio State, and he's trying to make 97 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 1: it as an NFL receiver. So we're all waiting for 98 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: this light to go on for lack of a better 99 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 1: way of putting it, and it really hasn't gone on. 100 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,160 Speaker 1: Yet to the consistency level that you want to see clearly, 101 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: and he'd be the first to tell you that. But 102 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,719 Speaker 1: is it possible And I'm not saying that it's happening, 103 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: but is it possible that the I could go on? Now? 104 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: Maybe the lights going on? Absolutely? I mean I think 105 00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: over the years in the NFL, there have been players 106 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: where that's that's certainly happened where first year not a 107 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 1: whole lot, second year, you know, then third year all 108 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: a sudden boom pop on the scene. I mean right, uh, 109 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: trust you see all the other talent, Yeah, absolutely, and 110 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: you feel you feel challenged by that got Like you know, 111 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 1: Victor Cruz was a pretty good story with the Giants 112 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,800 Speaker 1: and he's undrafted, but you know, as an undrafted player, 113 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: he made him plays in preseason camp, but he didn't 114 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: get himself on the roster. Then the next year, there's 115 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:37,080 Speaker 1: some injuries there at the receiver position for the Giants, 116 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 1: he gets an opportunity and then he takes off with it. 117 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: And that happened I think in his second or his 118 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 1: third year when he was with the New York Giants. 119 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 1: So it can happen at any point. I think we 120 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: had such high expectations for Braxton coming in because he 121 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: was a known commodity, but we knew him as quarterback. Yeah, 122 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: all Big Ten Player of the Year quarterback Braxt his 123 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: hands in space, highlight plays that. Yep, he just he 124 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 1: hasn't gotten to that point yet for look a myriad 125 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 1: of reasons. I mean, who knows being I know when 126 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 1: I was being healthy. I remember that the Raiders game 127 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: in Mexico City, he put that move on David Amerson 128 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 1: for that touchdown catch and he froze him. He just 129 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 1: went up on him one on one, shook to the left, 130 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:26,479 Speaker 1: went back to the inside. Amerson's lost, and he catches 131 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 1: that touchdown pass. And I remember interviewing him after the game, thinking, Okay, 132 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: here we go turning point. This is the time where 133 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: he really starts to turn it around and become the 134 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 1: Braxton Miller that we're used to. And then he got 135 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: hurt a week or two later, and then was I 136 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: think done for the rest of the year at that point. 137 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 1: And then last year he got hurt in training camp, 138 00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: never really got back on track, never really got in sync. 139 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: And then he got back in the line. He's an 140 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 1: actor for a few weeks and he got back in 141 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: the line had that touchdown against the Browns, and I thought, Okay, 142 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: maybe that's gonna bust him out a little bit one. 143 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: But then you had such great play from Will and 144 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 1: from DeAndre, and Bruce was in a really nice groove, 145 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: so it was kind of hard to find snaps for 146 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: him at that point. He's gonna have to go snatch 147 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:11,119 Speaker 1: those snaps from people. This year, he's really just gonna 148 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 1: have to go, No, I'm playing so well that you're 149 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: gonna have to play me that I'm gonna nudge Kiki 150 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: Qtiata here that Bruce is gonna have to step aside, 151 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: and I'm the guy that everybody wanted to be in 152 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: that spot originally. I'm gonna be that guy. That's what 153 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: he's gonna That's what he's gonna have to do. But man, 154 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,560 Speaker 1: whether you get it from Braxton, Bruce, Kiki, all of them, 155 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: two of them, hopefully you just get it from one 156 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: of them, hopefully. But you know, to me, I've said this, 157 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know how natural Braxton as 158 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: an inside receiver ever is, But you watch him outside, 159 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: You're like, ah, he looks pretty good out here. He 160 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: looks like he knows what he's doing. But you've got 161 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: Will and DeAndre out there, so he's gonna have to 162 00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: learn to exist playing on the inside a little bit, 163 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: or or what they've done a lot of is on 164 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: third down, move DeAndre inside. Maybe that's where Braxton could 165 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: step up and be that guy on the outside, but 166 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: could do some damage in the slot man or anywhere 167 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: he lines. Yeah, he's he's done it, and he and 168 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: I've talked about that. I mean that same Raiders game 169 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: when we were down in Mexico Cities. After the game, 170 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: he's sitting his locker and he just kind of sitting there. 171 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: He's kind of upset, he's some bro, and I walked 172 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: over and uh, he just goes, I was killing him 173 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: from slot tonight. I was like, I know, every time 174 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: you got loosing the slot and he goes, I should 175 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: be in the slot more often. I was like, yeah, 176 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, just having this kind he likes 177 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: being in there because that's I think what separates him 178 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: from some of the other guys throughout the league is 179 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 1: he can go inside and dominate and dominate you. Oh. Absolutely, 180 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: I mean I should be inside more often, but outside 181 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: I'm one of the best in the game. If not 182 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: so anywhere works absolutely no question. All right, Mark, we 183 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: talked about the roster a little bit, talking about that 184 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 1: slot position. You talked about Braxton being and this is 185 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 1: we'll do this segment down the road. The don't you 186 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 1: forget About Me? Was that? Simple? Minds that that don't 187 00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 1: you forget about breakfast club? Yeah, minds, don't you forget 188 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:06,559 Speaker 1: about me? I want to go subterranean favorite category. Those 189 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 1: players that are gonna fight for that fifty second and 190 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: fifty third spot on this roster that may not always 191 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: be active on Sunday, but man, they've got a chance. 192 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 1: Subterranean type guys that nobody is talking about, right, Yeah, okay, 193 00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,959 Speaker 1: subterranean guy number one, go all right, Well his name 194 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: did come up a little bit, and that's Troymaine Pope, 195 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: the second year running back from Jacksonville State. Good one, 196 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: getting a lot of reps. And where's number thirty three? Folks? 197 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 1: So if you see him in the videos, the photos, 198 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: whatever brief practice videos you're gonna see out of Houston 199 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,559 Speaker 1: Texans dot Com. We can't show you the whole practice, 200 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 1: but you'll notice him. He does make plays in this contexture. Okay, 201 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm not ready to send him to Orlando. But let's 202 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: just keep our eyes on him. I'm gonna give you 203 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: two defensive backs that are worth watching, especially when we 204 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 1: get to the Greenbrier when the put on the pads 205 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 1: and everything. D virgin who's in his second year. And 206 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,199 Speaker 1: obviously that's somebody that Anthony Mitchett we'll talk about. And 207 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: you also look at Andre ches Chessia. Yeah, chessera Chester. 208 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:21,200 Speaker 1: I think that's it, all right. Yeah, we've talked about 209 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: him just because of his name being difficult to pronounce Chesia. 210 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 1: He's a guy. Andre Chesseray will be. I'm not gonna 211 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: say he's gonna make the team or anything, but let's 212 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: just watch him develop. Let's watch him coming here, try 213 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: to do some damage. Rookie from San Jose State, six feet, 214 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: two hundred pounds. So you liked the size. It seems 215 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 1: like everybody they have, correct me if I'm wrong. Virtually 216 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 1: everybody they have can run. You can run like that, 217 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: not necessarily sub four four, but right in that neighborhood 218 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: and that general zip code. So you're looking at it fast, 219 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,560 Speaker 1: you're looking at big enough, and let's see how he fairs. 220 00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: Chessaray has made some plays in practice too, And when 221 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 1: I watched him, and then I watched thirty fives like 222 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: thirty seven, thirty five, thirty five Jamain Kelly. Ye, thinking, man, 223 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: he's made. They manned the corner for Santas State. My goodness, 224 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: this team could have been a whole head of a 225 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 1: lot better. They could score the football. But the those 226 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 1: two guys they're they're definitely, I mean, definitely gonna be 227 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 1: heard from in this process. Seventh round or undrafted guys, 228 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: those are two guys I think absolutely are gonna end 229 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 1: up being a factor in this What kind of pressure 230 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: you think it puts on Kelly, who's a great guy 231 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,320 Speaker 1: by the way, we interviewed him on draft day or 232 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: draft weekend. To have Chassay here as well, you know, absolutely, 233 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 1: it's like I've been drafted. You haven't. You're here trying 234 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: to make the team. So am I really seventh round draft? Exactly? 235 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 1: It's written in stone here. But man, there's a lot 236 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: of pressure. I mean to stay ahead of you. Yeah, 237 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: there's no question. If I'm if I'm Jermaine Kelly, I'm 238 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: feeling that pressure a little bit. Yeah, I'm feeling it 239 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: because when when Shasta Rey is making plays in practice. 240 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 1: Coaches are like, hey, wait a second, drafted this guy, 241 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 1: but it's the other guy that's gonna end up making 242 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 1: plays now. Who knows they made it. They might have 243 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:06,559 Speaker 1: been very very closely great depending on how the Texas 244 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: go early and we're you know, we're looking at limited 245 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 1: snaps anyway, but it is it's a good one. D 246 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 1: Virgin is a very good one. I've noticed him. Yeah, 247 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: you know he's away putting it. You noticed him, he's Yeah. 248 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: Noticing is good in that you don't want to notice 249 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: him like, oh he gets beat a lot. You want 250 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,480 Speaker 1: to notice him making plays here and there, being in 251 00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: the right spot and maybe that's a good throw, but hey, 252 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: the guy broke it up or you know, just didn't 253 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: put it in the tight window or whatever. So I'll 254 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 1: continue to watch and wearing that number thirty four. It's interesting. 255 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 1: Well I thought about that the other day listening to 256 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: our good friend Patti Smith talked about the number thirty four, 257 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: because it got me thinking, man, who's wearing thirty four? Fur? 258 00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: Oh it's D Virgin. Yeah, you got a lot to 259 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,800 Speaker 1: live up to in this town. I know a lot. 260 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,560 Speaker 1: You know, if you're that young, though, are you really 261 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 1: even thinking along those lines. Although Irvin moved right off 262 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: the number, Yeah, he went right the twenty. He did 263 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 1: the AJ boy A thing. Yeah, he went from thirty 264 00:12:56,360 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 1: four to twenty one like AJ did exactly magic. He 265 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: went and right to twenty one. So hopefully hopefully Tyler 266 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 1: Ivan can get back, because he ends up being he 267 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,520 Speaker 1: ends up. Tyler Ivan goes with Raxton Miller a little 268 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:11,679 Speaker 1: bit into the don't you forget about me? Category? All right, 269 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: So there are a couple of other tight ends that 270 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: are definitely worth mentioning. First of all, if you want 271 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,200 Speaker 1: to go all Airport team, Matt Lengel. We've talked about 272 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: him a little bit about six seven, two sixty five. 273 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 1: He looks like C. J. Fedora Witz out there. If 274 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 1: you're squinting your eyes, the guy's huge. I'm not saying 275 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: he's gonna play like him, but I've seen him make 276 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 1: some catches, you know. Giovanni Robinson, very very interest Johnny. 277 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: He's listed six eighteen. I don't. I don't think he's 278 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,240 Speaker 1: two twenty five. He looks two fifty. Yeah, he's six 279 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 1: to eighty, looks big. I don't this could be a 280 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: misprint here, No, I think it is. I mean, I 281 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: think that's a college and keeping mind he played basketball 282 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: in college, Joanni Robinson was gonna be mine because he's 283 00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 1: a guy that when you look at a t the 284 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: Titan position is very interesting to me, very because Lucy 285 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:59,079 Speaker 1: Janny go that's a huge, huge loss, considering obviously with 286 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 1: c J gabon twenty sixteen. But then from that point forward, 287 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 1: after losing CJ, they claimed Lenglon Waivers. They they had 288 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 1: Jivanni Robinson practice squad, the Michael Pruett then Michael Pruitt 289 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: already on practice squad and also made the fifty three. 290 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,559 Speaker 1: And then they added the two tight end, the two 291 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 1: rookie tight ends, the two Jordan's you want to talk 292 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,960 Speaker 1: about pressure man. And oh, by the way, they still 293 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: have Ryan Griffin and Steven Anderson. Yeah, Tim Kelly position 294 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:26,840 Speaker 1: coach's gonna have his hands full with that one. But 295 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: Javanni Robinson was gonna be my sub training guy. Don't 296 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 1: forget about this guy, a former basketball player with skills 297 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 1: and looks the part. Certainly does. Certainly that's why I said, 298 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: all airport. You know, they look great in the airport. 299 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: You gotta see if they can play on the field, 300 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:43,080 Speaker 1: but they've at least passed the All Airports site test. 301 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: But mentioning Pruett, I keep seeing him play, and you 302 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: know he's It's logical because he's been here, he knows 303 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: the system, so we shouldn't freak out when he's making plays. 304 00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,960 Speaker 1: He's six two two forty five, not the biggest guy 305 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: in the world, A tank. Yeah, he's built. I mean, 306 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 1: numbers are just massive. And I remember seeing him at 307 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 1: Southern Illinois when I was doing study on an FSS 308 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: players a couple of summers ago, and I went through 309 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: and I found I was looking at the All America 310 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 1: teams like, okay, give me the players to stand up 311 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 1: that are juniors or non seniors. And so I see 312 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 1: this guy, Michael Pruett, Let's go check this guy out, 313 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: like whoa, this guy could play Holy smokes. And then 314 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 1: he ends up with us, and look, he's got an 315 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: opportunity that position. I think when it comes to preseason 316 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: and you can take Michael Prude to take Jovanni Robinson, 317 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 1: those two are they would definitely be on my subterranean group. 318 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: Guys that are gonna have to fight for everything. But man, 319 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: with the athletic ability they have They're gonna be right 320 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: there in the mix. Super competitive position group. And it's 321 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: not like I'm not saying you have Hall of Famers 322 00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: here necessarily, but the numbers are so voluminous all of 323 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: a sudden that you feel good about coming out of 324 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 1: the pack, coming out of camp with a couple of 325 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: guys that can really help you. Griffin's gonna be on 326 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 1: the team. I think Steven Anderson's receiving capability speaks for itself. 327 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,120 Speaker 1: But it is going to be highly competitive. How many 328 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: do they keep? Do the kickoff rules come into play here? 329 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. That's a great question. We talked to 330 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: Brad Seeley about that last night. We will talk to 331 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: defensive back to coach anthy Midget next, not about the kickoffs, 332 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 1: but we ask him and we'll ask him about the 333 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: new secondary editions and those rookies we just talked about 334 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: right here at Texans All Access. Twenty seventeen was as 335 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:33,480 Speaker 1: tough a year for the Houston Texans secondary as maybe 336 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: they've had since twenty ten. There as a result, has 337 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: been a ton of changes from the additions in the secondary, 338 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 1: Tyren Matthew, Aaron Colvin, and free agency Johnson Batimosian free agency. 339 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: Also in the rookies in the draft Jermaine Kelly Jr. 340 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: And also the first pick for the Texans twenty eighteen, 341 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: Justin Reid. There is also change at the top in 342 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: the league leadership of that position. Anthony Midgett takes over 343 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: as the leader in the secondary. Now. He had worked 344 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 1: a lot with the young guys in the safeties in 345 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: prior years. He steps up and takes on the role 346 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: as the defensive backs coach for twenty eighteen. He's a 347 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,200 Speaker 1: guy that I've known about for a long time. He 348 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: played at Virginia Tech, and he played on that team 349 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 1: in ninety nine then went to a national championship game. 350 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 1: He was a senior on that team when a certain 351 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: red shirt freshman took over a lefty got a name 352 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 1: of vic took that team and took it to the 353 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: national championship game, and Anthony was a part of that team. 354 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: So I've always wanted to kind of fanboy out and 355 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,639 Speaker 1: talk to Anthony about that. But he's great to talk about, 356 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 1: and we'll have that conversation for you now. Talking about 357 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: the additions, talking about Dick, the impact of a guy 358 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 1: like Watson on this team, last year. Here's our conversation 359 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: with secondary coach Anthony Midgett. Defensive backs coach Anthony midget 360 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 1: with us in the Hunday Texans Radio studio. How's it 361 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: going coaching? Well? Great to have you and this is 362 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: your first ever? Is it all right? And I asked 363 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 1: you in the hallway or something recently, how's your voice? 364 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: I mean you're using your voice more than ever. Now, 365 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: that's got to be true, right as the head defensive 366 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: backs coach as opposed to the assistant. Just a tad 367 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: bit right, just coming off the field. You can hear 368 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:15,479 Speaker 1: it a little bit, but only when the guys make 369 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 1: me use it. No, listen, that's that's your voice all 370 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 1: the time. Don't don't kid anybody coach the secondary. We 371 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 1: talked about it throughout the season last year. Tough year 372 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 1: last year. What's some additions Eric Covin and Tyron Matthew. 373 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 1: What are those guys bring to the secondary? Being added 374 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:31,719 Speaker 1: to the guys already back there? Um, you look at 375 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: guys that have a lot of playing experience in the 376 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,159 Speaker 1: NFL and then add them to the core guys that 377 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: we have. They're gonna come in and add depth and 378 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 1: competition to the position, and that's what coach O'Brien and 379 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 1: Brian Gaye is building this thing on his competition. So 380 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,680 Speaker 1: the more guys we can add to the room that 381 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 1: we can bring at the competition, that's good for us. 382 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,199 Speaker 1: Not everybody's completely healthy, but when you see Kevin Johnson 383 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: out there and Jonathan Joseph and Kareem Jackson along with 384 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: the new additions, that's got to be a real feather 385 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 1: in your cap. That's good, um, because Jjo, k A, Kevin, 386 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: those guys have played a lot of football for us, 387 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: and adding Tying and Aaron to the mix, it's been good. 388 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 1: And you know Kevin is, you know, putting the focus 389 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: on having a really good offseason. He's been doing a 390 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: good job, um in practice in the OTAs and UM, 391 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,360 Speaker 1: Jonathan Joseph been doing a good job with his leadership. 392 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 1: Jonathan Joseph, it feels like he could play forever. It seems. 393 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 1: You watch him and you wouldn't think that he's thirty two, 394 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:24,680 Speaker 1: thirty three whatever he is. What's what's his secret? I mean, 395 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 1: he won't tell you obviously, but what do you see 396 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 1: is his coach? What do you see his secret? He's 397 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: great in the meeting room. He's a student of the game. 398 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: His football IQ is off the charts, and I think, 399 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 1: you know, that's the thing that gives him the edge. 400 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 1: And also, you know, the guy's ability, and he's been able, 401 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 1: you know as he's gone on in his career. Just 402 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: take care of his body. He's in here, UM working 403 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 1: and doing the things he needs to do UM to 404 00:19:44,600 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 1: stay health him. UM play a sixteen game season. He 405 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: could still run too. I mean, that's gotta help, I 406 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: want to think, asked. I asked him last year, Well, 407 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: what I mean running the football coach fast? I understood 408 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: what you meant. You don't have to say the fast part. 409 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: But he I think we asked him last year who 410 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: would would forty and he threw his name in there 411 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: with among the best on the team. He still has 412 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 1: the speed, he says. I think he'll still be in there. 413 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 1: You can see him, you know, going against guys like 414 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 1: full way every day and you know, helping us get 415 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,679 Speaker 1: better because the guys can stretch the field. And you 416 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: know he's still running and doing a good job. But 417 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: also you know, I just go back to Jjoe's such 418 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 1: a student of the game and he studies and he 419 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: puts in the time and that gives him the edge 420 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: a coach. Since you were playing till now, what's when 421 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 1: the biggest change in your world? In the secondary world, 422 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 1: it feels like back when in the late nineties it 423 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 1: was there's cover one, two, three, four, maybe a few 424 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:38,240 Speaker 1: hybrid covers maybe a little bit. Now it feels like 425 00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: there's so much crazy stuff going on in the secondary 426 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 1: with coverages. How complex has it gotten? How much has 427 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: it changed from when you started playing till now? I 428 00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: think the core is still the same, but there are 429 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: some change up in variations to those base you know, 430 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: the ones, the twos and the fours and all the 431 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:55,879 Speaker 1: threes that you do that you try to mix in 432 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: and just give the quarterbacks a different look. How tough 433 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,200 Speaker 1: is that when you're like Tom Brady, How tough is 434 00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,360 Speaker 1: that to go He's seen everything? I mean, is there 435 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 1: anything new and creative? I guess you can throw at 436 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 1: a quarterback like that. How tough is it to face 437 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 1: a guy like that that's seen everything? It's very tough. 438 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: You know, a guy has been playing a long time, 439 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 1: seeing a lot of defenses. People have thrown a ton 440 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: of stuff at him, and he's been doing it for 441 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: a while that he puts in the time, and that 442 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: just put the pressure on us as a defense to 443 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 1: give him multiple looks to disguise and our coverage it 444 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 1: so we're not giving him the answers to the test 445 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: and still making him think on the run. Secondary coach 446 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,719 Speaker 1: Jatha he Midge with us in the Hunday Texans radio studio. Okay, 447 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: a couple of guys here, d virgin entering year two 448 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: tell us about him a little bit. And Justin Reid 449 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 1: entering year one, the rookie from Stanford, MD, was with 450 00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: us last year, was on the practice squad. Got a 451 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: chance to work with him because I worked with a 452 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: lot of the younger guys on last year. And he's 453 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 1: came and had a good offseason coming in every day. 454 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:53,080 Speaker 1: He's a strong guy in the weight room, and also 455 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: you know, get him on the field and he's doing 456 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: a good job. You think he's had a good offseason. 457 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: I'm Justin Reid is a guy that we're excited about. 458 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: You know, good size, good athleticism adding to the position, 459 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 1: and he does a good job in the meeting room. 460 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: You know, he puts in the time. He's a football 461 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 1: he loves football and he studies and he puts in 462 00:22:09,600 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: the extra time. So I'm excited to see when we 463 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: put the pads on in camp and see him compete. Coach, 464 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 1: what about trusting Dayker guy? When you put the pads on, 465 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: it is is a pretty impressive looking guy. What about him 466 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,760 Speaker 1: in his second year? Um, he's been having a good 467 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,440 Speaker 1: offseason making the transition. You know over the safety has 468 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,560 Speaker 1: some size, he has some length. And then we put 469 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: the pads on a camp. You know that's gonna be 470 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 1: a big deal for him, you know, being able to 471 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: show he's physically can hold up playing that position. I 472 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: remember having played the secondary way way a long long 473 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 1: time ago. I know you can't believe that, but I 474 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: remember my coach saying at the time, if you could 475 00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:41,040 Speaker 1: play corner, you could play safety. Is that axiom sort 476 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:42,920 Speaker 1: of still true that if you could play a little 477 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 1: bit of corner that helps you playing safety. And I 478 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,479 Speaker 1: don't know if vice versus works, but how does it 479 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: help that he played corner but now he's moving back 480 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 1: to safety. I think it's good in a sense because 481 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 1: you take his athleticism from the corner position and put 482 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: it at the safety position, and it's a space game now. 483 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:59,480 Speaker 1: How teams are putting space in your out, getting slot 484 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: receiver matched up on safety, so it should be a 485 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,640 Speaker 1: benefit him playing corner. Yeah, it was just a box guy. 486 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: So that's old school. Yeah, that's old school. Yeah, we 487 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: don't have those guys. Don't that guy anywhere they are 488 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: will What about the mental aspect of being a defensive back, 489 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,919 Speaker 1: whether it's corner or safety, and the ability They always say, mnies, 490 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: you gotta be able to forget the bad play, just 491 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: move on to the next I use the term fighter, 492 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 1: forget it, drive on. You know, things going to happen 493 00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: back there. You know, the average fan probably won't see 494 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: the stuff that's going on up front, but anybody that 495 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,360 Speaker 1: knows very little football can tell if a guy got 496 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 1: behind you or not. And it's times like that when 497 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,919 Speaker 1: you give up a big play. We have to be 498 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 1: at our best to let it go and move on 499 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 1: to the next player, not let it affect us going forward. 500 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,159 Speaker 1: And that's been a big emphasis we've put on this offseason, 501 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: just that we have a back play, just continue to 502 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 1: move on and continue to play. Coach, when you saw 503 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 1: de Shan last year and faced him in practice, did 504 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 1: you have any flashbacks to a certain left hander that 505 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,040 Speaker 1: you used to play against in college, used to you 506 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 1: used to play with in college and should say yep, 507 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 1: Michael Vick, yea, you know the sean when he first 508 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 1: got here. The thing that I noticed, and even just 509 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,760 Speaker 1: being a fan of college football and watching him just 510 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: no matter what the situation was the guy's poise and 511 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 1: he was always the same. It never got too big 512 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: for him. You could sit on the practice field with 513 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,679 Speaker 1: his demeanor, his leadership, and guys just gravitate towards him 514 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: and that's what he's showing and continue to improval. What 515 00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:27,919 Speaker 1: was Vic like in practice? He was competitive And I 516 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:30,440 Speaker 1: tell this story all the time, like um, when Vic 517 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 1: first was able because he read shirted his first ship 518 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: probably should have started as true freshman as soon as 519 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: he walked on campus. And the only guy can catch 520 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:39,800 Speaker 1: his ball with the guy that was on scout team 521 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,439 Speaker 1: with him because he had a seed man. It was 522 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: a strong arm. Yeah, but good teammate, yea electric one 523 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: more for you. We always talk about the tightness of 524 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: the group's offensive line, defensive backs. Why defensive backs, what's 525 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: your what's your pitch here for being the tightest position group. 526 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: It's just that brotherhood when you walk in, because we're 527 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:02,119 Speaker 1: always communic kayton with each other, around each other, and 528 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 1: that's what we got to do on the field with constantly. 529 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 1: It's the same thing as the Old line because every 530 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:08,800 Speaker 1: every play, those guys have to communicate and they have 531 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: to be tight. So those guys hanging together off the 532 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 1: field in the classroom just doing a good job. So 533 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:17,679 Speaker 1: the DBS, we're all tight. Given the love to the 534 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 1: old Line, like a coach would, thank you, I appreciate it. 535 00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 1: They're a secondary coach. Anthony Midget in his first year 536 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:30,800 Speaker 1: as the guy in the secondary, but he has a 537 00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: lot of knowledge of this team having been here since 538 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien got here in twenty fourteen. I think he 539 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,960 Speaker 1: is going to be great for the secondary having been 540 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 1: a guy that played in the league. These players respect him, 541 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 1: they know him. But that's a really competitive bunch and 542 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,080 Speaker 1: they're learning every single day. And I see the DBS 543 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: every day in the hallway and I see Aaron Colvin 544 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: with Tyra Matthew. I see j Joe with Aaron Colvin. 545 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: I see Kevin Johnson and Tyra Matthew all talking, all 546 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: communicating after coming out of meetings. It's really great to 547 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 1: see because of all the units on this team we 548 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,120 Speaker 1: talked about, there's been so much change, but it's also 549 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 1: a group that a can benefit from all the change, 550 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,640 Speaker 1: especially if guys are healthy upfront, because they can turn 551 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 1: teams over. Guys like Tyron Matthew Aaron Colvin, they can 552 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 1: be ballhawks, turning the ball back over to the offense, 553 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: and this is obviously an offense you want to have 554 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 1: with the ball in his hands. So this secondary is 555 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,440 Speaker 1: gonna look completely different. One of the things I've noticed 556 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:28,640 Speaker 1: about OTAs nothing ever looks the same from one day 557 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 1: to the next, from one drive to the next, one 558 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 1: drill to the next. We're thinking the secondary looks a 559 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 1: little bit different. These four players, these five players out 560 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,399 Speaker 1: this time, these five out the next time. This mix 561 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 1: maybe the same five guys, different spots. The secondary looks 562 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: completely different than it has previously, and I'm very curious 563 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: to see how it's going to all come together. But 564 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: at least we know the pieces. As I mentioned Justin Reid, 565 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 1: Jermaine Kelly Junior added Tyrn Colvin, Johnson Batamosi, and Tyron 566 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 1: Matthew all added to that mix, and then of course 567 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 1: the man right there leading to the the group is Anthony Midget. 568 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: All right, Drew Doherty's gonna stop by. It's time for 569 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:09,639 Speaker 1: two to go. I'll explain what that means next Right 570 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:24,480 Speaker 1: here in Texans All Access one final segment of Texans 571 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:28,120 Speaker 1: All Access from the Honday Texans Radio studio. I'm John 572 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 1: Harris right here with Drew Doherty, and today we're gonna 573 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 1: do something called two to go, all right, and what 574 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 1: that means is we've got categories. We got four different categories, 575 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: and we probably could do more, but we're gonna do 576 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: that just because we want to keep this to oh, 577 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:48,719 Speaker 1: I don't know a reasonable listening experience of time. All right, 578 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 1: we want to go two further. So we've come with 579 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: categories and our two to go one for Drew. One 580 00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 1: from me as a pertains to the twenty eighteen Texans, 581 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: because we've had a chance to see them out of 582 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: OTA's a couple times, a couple times, three times now 583 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,439 Speaker 1: and they're going into mandatory mini camp next week and 584 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: then they're gone, and next time we're gonna see these 585 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 1: guys is gonna be up in West Virginia training camp. 586 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,480 Speaker 1: It's crazy. It's almost here. As I said to Mark yesterday. 587 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 1: Drew training camp is next month, which is wild to 588 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: think about. Well, it's upon it, so figured we need 589 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 1: two to go and a lot of the names that 590 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 1: you're gonna hear today. You're not gonna hear DeAndre Hopkins, 591 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 1: You're not gonna hear Jadeveon Clowney Watson, You're not gonna 592 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 1: hear those type names because everybody knows those type names. 593 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 1: We need to impart to you some names that wow, Okay, 594 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: I hadn't thought about that guy, yep. And we'll start 595 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 1: with number one for two to go, one from one 596 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: from me, one from Drew. Drew go first. The player 597 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: that could impact twenty eighteen more than you expected heading 598 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: into OTAs. I got it, okay, And it's probably a 599 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: guy that you should have thought anyway, or I should 600 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: have thought anyway. But I've been very impressed with what 601 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: I've seen from him. I'm gonna go with Zach Fulton. 602 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: He was signed in the offseason. He's one of the 603 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: offensive line. He's brought in from the Chiefs, and he's 604 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 1: been playing center during OTAs. Now, Nick Martin was your 605 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: center last year, did a pretty good job till things 606 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 1: went south healthwise for him. But Zack Fulton can play 607 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: guard as well, But does he play center well enough 608 00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: now that it's it, lets you move Nick Martin to 609 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: guard or does Nick Martin slide back in and you 610 00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: got Fulton at center. But I've just been very, very 611 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: impressed with a leadership, his versatility and what he can 612 00:29:37,720 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: do to this line, because I think you've really bolstered 613 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: the inside guard center guard part of your line no 614 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: matter where you wind up playing this guy, and that's 615 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: a big deal because you really struggled there at times 616 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: in twenty eighteen, excuse me, in twenty seventeen, even when 617 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,280 Speaker 1: you were winning in that earlier part of the season. 618 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:56,440 Speaker 1: But Zach Fulton is a guy that I've really been 619 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: impressed with what he's had to do because just by 620 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: virtue of playing center, you are a leader on the 621 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,479 Speaker 1: offensive line. You have to have a lot of stuff 622 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 1: as far as, uh, you know, getting guys in the 623 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 1: right spot, recognizing defenses. So I like what I've seen 624 00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: from Zack Fulton. I for mine, I'm gonna go maybe 625 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 1: a little bit off the page. Yeah, and I know 626 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 1: mine wasn't because it's a guy you brought in expecting. 627 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 1: But I just don't think the general public really knew 628 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: too much or thought too much of Fulton when he 629 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 1: was signed. I think if there is a position defensively 630 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 1: where I don't want to say Texas, Texans don't have 631 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: these type players, and I've argued in the past and 632 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: I still believe this, that outside linebacker is a spot 633 00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: where Okay, Winnie Mersill's out outside linebacker and Brent Scarlett's 634 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: out of outside linebacker, but who else. Now, the Texans 635 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: don't play the base defense all that much, and so 636 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 1: a lot of times it's with with j D and 637 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: JJ and then Reader and those four all play up front. 638 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: They'll play two linebackers Zack and Zach and b Mac 639 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: and then they'll play a Nickell behind it, or'll play 640 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 1: dime and take one linebackers off or DJ off or 641 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:02,480 Speaker 1: whatever the case might be. So the point being is, 642 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 1: I don't know that depth issues at outside linebacker end 643 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 1: up being as big a deal as maybe they would 644 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 1: be in a normal situation. By normal, I mean you're 645 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 1: playing your base defense fifty sixty seventy percent at a time, 646 00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 1: and now you're playing your base defense probably thirty to 647 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: thirty five percent at a time. That's said, I think 648 00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: LaTroy Lewis is a guy to watch at outside linebacker. 649 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 1: He was brought in the middle of the last year 650 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: he was he was well. He's brought out the beginning 651 00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: of the year and they put him on a practice 652 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: squad and then at the end of the year he 653 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: got an opportunity to get on to fifty three. He 654 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:37,880 Speaker 1: had a really good camp with Oakland, but wasn't able 655 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: to crack it. They had Bruce Servan, they had Khalil Mack. 656 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: They just really didn't have room for him. He comes 657 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 1: here and I was a big fan of his at Tennessee. Again, 658 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:49,920 Speaker 1: a guy, and I've said this many times, I love 659 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: guys that wear single digit or low digit numbers because 660 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 1: they're athletes in college. In college can't do it in 661 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: the NFL because of the number rules they have. But 662 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,600 Speaker 1: in college were number four and I that always caught 663 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 1: my attention, and I thought he rushed very well. I 664 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:06,440 Speaker 1: thought he was a solid player come out of Tennessee 665 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:10,320 Speaker 1: and with some time he could turn into something. And 666 00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: just watching him here, I feel like he's got when 667 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 1: the pads go on, he's got an opportunity to really 668 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: insert himself into that mix with Scarlett, with merciless because 669 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: of the way that he can rush the quarterer. It's 670 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 1: a good one. I don't think many people know that name. 671 00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: He's wearing number fifty four now he's not wearing single digits, 672 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: but that's a good one. So we went with Zach 673 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,040 Speaker 1: Fulton as me offensive lineman and he went with LaTroy 674 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: Lewis as far as guys you are going to probably 675 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 1: impact the team that you didn't think too much of before. 676 00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: Okay too, to go second category. Mark you likes to 677 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 1: use his term subterranean guys guys that are like, well, 678 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: well under the radar, not just under the radar. Subterraney 679 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: means under the earth. Yeah, like way, way, way, like 680 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,960 Speaker 1: you're not thinking about. And these guys are typically guys 681 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,880 Speaker 1: that are maybe even struggling to get on the bubble. 682 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 1: But you get him to the bubble, well you never 683 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,600 Speaker 1: know what might happen to them. And they've got a chance. 684 00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: They got a chance, small chance, they got a chance. 685 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 1: Drew yours is you know, by what you just described, 686 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: maybe my guy is closer to terranean than Subtraine. I 687 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: still think he's under the radar, but I've been really 688 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 1: impressed with Matt Lingle he's a tight end Texans brought in. 689 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,920 Speaker 1: He's he's got a little bit of experience in the league, 690 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: but he's still a young guy. But it seems like 691 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: every time I look up, he's catching a pass, he's 692 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 1: getting open. He's got a kind of range your body, 693 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 1: so he looks like he'll be a matchup problem for 694 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 1: some shorter corners or safeties if you put him out there. 695 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 1: But he's just when he's his number has been called, 696 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 1: he's made plays, he's been in the Patriots system, caught 697 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 1: a touchdown from Tom Brady. So I just kind of 698 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: think he the two rookie Jordan's at tight end, Aikins 699 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,120 Speaker 1: and Thomas, as well as Anderson and Griffin, they're they're 700 00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,000 Speaker 1: gonna make it really tough for this coaching staff to 701 00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 1: have to whittle down that tight end position. I think 702 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 1: ling is is definitely making it really really hard there. Yeah, 703 00:34:04,280 --> 00:34:08,879 Speaker 1: I agree with you wholeheartedly. My guy is a running back. 704 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 1: And it's funny because at the second oha I remember 705 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 1: watching him thinking, boy, he's pocket dynamite man, holy smokes, 706 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 1: And I made a note. And then that Friday, Bill 707 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: O'Brian was on with Triple Threat on a Sports Radio 708 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,240 Speaker 1: six ten and he mentioned this guy. They were asking 709 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,640 Speaker 1: him about some kind of under the radar guys and 710 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:34,880 Speaker 1: he mentioned this guy, and I was like, dad, gumm it. 711 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,360 Speaker 1: I didn't know whether I should feel good about the 712 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:40,359 Speaker 1: fact that I was right on, right on lockstep with 713 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:42,319 Speaker 1: Bill O'Brien, but I sort of was on this one 714 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 1: because Tremaine Pope has been really, really good. Now again, 715 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 1: you're watching guys that have they're not they don't have 716 00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: the pads on your running backs are not having a 717 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: breakthrough tackles. But you can see him catch the football. 718 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: He's the menu, He's he's a he's short, I should say, 719 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,880 Speaker 1: but he is strong. You look at him, he has 720 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 1: built like a brick house and he just pinballs. Just 721 00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:12,799 Speaker 1: watching him in college and seeing different things, watching him 722 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 1: in in preseason and seeing some of the highlights from 723 00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:18,399 Speaker 1: other teams. He just bounces off guys. I mean, he's 724 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: got a thick lower trunk. I there's a good up 725 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:23,360 Speaker 1: and he got a lot of reps this last OTA 726 00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: in particular, And so Tremaine Pope is going to be 727 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:28,200 Speaker 1: my subterranean guy. John, you and I were standing by 728 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: each other on Tuesday at the OTA practice and I'm 729 00:35:32,480 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: not gonna say which defender he did this too. Oh, 730 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 1: but Pope broke a guy's knees in a It was 731 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: a special team's drill where he gets the ball and 732 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: the defender has to try and basically touch him. You know. 733 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 1: It's it's like two hand touch because I don't tackle here. 734 00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: But he put a move on this guy and the 735 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: guy fell down, and it was really really impressive it. 736 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: Deshaun Watson was like, I mean the whole you had 737 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 1: lots of oh around the practice field when they saw it. 738 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 1: So yeah, I like that Troy Maine Pope. He's making 739 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: plays June. But he's making plays when he really needs 740 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 1: to and should when he's getting his chances here in 741 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 1: OTA's all right, category three and R two to go. 742 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: It just says rookies, Huh, rookies, you get first head 743 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 1: and shoulders. Uh, at least on the offensive side of 744 00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 1: the ball. I've he stood above everybody else rookie wise, 745 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,880 Speaker 1: I've thought, with Jordan Nakins coming a close second, Kiki 746 00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: qt Man, I've really really been impressed with him because 747 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 1: I you know, I covered Texas Tech for four years 748 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: and I saw those guys and a lot of them. 749 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: With the exception of Amndola and Crabtree and Welder, a 750 00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,840 Speaker 1: lot of those receivers really didn't make it in the pros. 751 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 1: Then you know they didn't succeed. But until I kind 752 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: of thought, well, it might take a while for Kiki QT. 753 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,880 Speaker 1: This guy in addition to all the explosiveness and the speed, 754 00:36:54,160 --> 00:36:57,399 Speaker 1: this guy's got really good hands. John. I saw him 755 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: just kind of paw one out of the air a 756 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 1: bullet from Brandon Whedon a couple of weeks ago that 757 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,560 Speaker 1: was at maybe seven yards I was almost point blank range, 758 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:09,000 Speaker 1: just snagged it like DeAndre Hopkins would. I was very, 759 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 1: very impressed, and Hopkins has said how impressive this guy 760 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,760 Speaker 1: is not just on the field, but picking Hopkins brain 761 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 1: in between plays in the meeting room. We heard the 762 00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:22,399 Speaker 1: same from John Perry, the wide receivers coach, yesterday. Kiki QT, 763 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,160 Speaker 1: I think is gonna have a lot to say as 764 00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,680 Speaker 1: far as playing time and production in the twenty eighteen offense. 765 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with the two Jordans calls two to go. 766 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with two George Jordan Thomas Jordan Nakins, 767 00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,160 Speaker 1: the two tight ends. Those two guys have gotten a 768 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:40,760 Speaker 1: ton of reps and OTAs and I really have loved 769 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 1: watching what they're doing. They're they've caught the ball all 770 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 1: over the field. Yeah, I'm talking flat routes, deep routes, 771 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: intermediate routes all over the field. And I think it's 772 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 1: gonna be that way. And you mentioned a little while 773 00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 1: ago Matton Legal with Lengo and the two Jordans, and 774 00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:00,200 Speaker 1: with Jevanni Robinson, who I think you become a our 775 00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,800 Speaker 1: argument for him being a sub training guy, form basketball 776 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,920 Speaker 1: player who's on practice squad last year trying to develop 777 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: into a big time tight end. These tight ends, it's 778 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:12,160 Speaker 1: gonna be a really difficult task where Tim Kelly and 779 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 1: his offensive staff to kind of whittle it down. He's 780 00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:16,960 Speaker 1: still Griffin Steven Stephen Anderson was the guy that led 781 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:18,759 Speaker 1: you in catches and yards last year, and we went 782 00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 1: in and this is why I told people, Look, you 783 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,080 Speaker 1: just gotta let the off season play out because you 784 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: lost c J. Fed Orwitz and that was a big 785 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 1: loss figuratively and literally big loss for this team. But 786 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 1: then you added Lengal through the waiver process. You claimed 787 00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 1: him off waivers and he, like you said, has been 788 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 1: a big surprise. You had Javanni Robinson here, but you 789 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: really know what he could do because you got him 790 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:39,799 Speaker 1: kind of late in the process. And then you add 791 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:43,399 Speaker 1: the two Jordans to this. You completely revamped that tight 792 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 1: end that tight end room. But yeah, you still have 793 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: I don't say the two old standbys, but you got 794 00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,879 Speaker 1: two stand bys and Ryan Griffin and absolutely so I'm 795 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,920 Speaker 1: gonna go with the two Jordan's as my rookies, all right, 796 00:38:54,040 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 1: Last one, two to go. This doesn't have to be 797 00:38:58,000 --> 00:39:01,080 Speaker 1: a player. It could be a player that we haven't mentioned. Yeah, 798 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 1: it can be something that happened at OTAs. But the 799 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,319 Speaker 1: last one, two to go things that have caught your 800 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:11,680 Speaker 1: attention mine is not player related. Do you have one? 801 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:13,840 Speaker 1: This can? This can run the game. It might be 802 00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 1: stealing yours. I didn't look, but you and I were 803 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,400 Speaker 1: standing by each other a practice quite a bit yesterday. 804 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 1: And these new kickoff rules have changed the way. Okay, 805 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,759 Speaker 1: well you don't, let's go if you'll expand on it. 806 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,799 Speaker 1: And I've got like a little one b okay, but 807 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: that's totally unrelated. But the kickoff rules, the way you're 808 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:34,359 Speaker 1: seeing the Texans align themselves on kickoffs is different than 809 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 1: we've seen in the past. Now it might have that 810 00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:37,759 Speaker 1: was probably gonna be the case anyway, because you have 811 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:40,000 Speaker 1: a new coordinator in Brad Seeley, and he's been around 812 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 1: the block, he's seen things. He's had success in the 813 00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 1: NFL for decades. But because you can't get the run 814 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:50,759 Speaker 1: up that you normally did, you're seeing them deployed on 815 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,439 Speaker 1: that line in front of the kicker, right at where 816 00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 1: the ball is, right where the ball is, So you're 817 00:39:55,160 --> 00:39:58,880 Speaker 1: seeing them deployed a lot differently. I still don't know 818 00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 1: how this is going to affect, but you and I 819 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,080 Speaker 1: kind of kicked it around yesterday. It looks like initially, 820 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:07,279 Speaker 1: maybe what's going to happen is there's not gonna be 821 00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 1: the depth of defenders, meaning there's a wave at first 822 00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: and there's a second wave. It looks like they're gonna 823 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:19,080 Speaker 1: be more spread out horizontally than anything. It's one wave 824 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:23,840 Speaker 1: that's wider as opposed to two more narrow waves or 825 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:25,640 Speaker 1: even three narrow waves like they're used to be. Now, 826 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 1: put your mental asterisk by all this because it's June. Okay, 827 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,759 Speaker 1: we don't know how, but it certainly is going to 828 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:33,799 Speaker 1: affect things. I think, and I think in a major way. 829 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,960 Speaker 1: On kickoffs. I think it's gonna be more fun to watch. 830 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:39,080 Speaker 1: It was interesting talking to Especial Teams coordinator Brad Celley 831 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:43,920 Speaker 1: about this because this really, this really is when they 832 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 1: changed when they changed the extra point rule, that was 833 00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 1: just you're kicking it from there to there. The only 834 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: real strategy element to it was, well do you want 835 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,319 Speaker 1: to just go for two versus going for one? And 836 00:40:57,360 --> 00:41:00,399 Speaker 1: most teams had default to do going for one because 837 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: they know their kicker can kick a thirty two yard 838 00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 1: field goal. That's essentially what it is. I think this 839 00:41:06,600 --> 00:41:09,919 Speaker 1: has the opportunity with kickoffs to be a seat change 840 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 1: for a number of different reasons. You're in coach. See 841 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 1: he said this yesterday to us. During the first few weeks, 842 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 1: you're gonna see teams do things and you're gonna go, WHOA, 843 00:41:19,640 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 1: I hadn't seen that, haven't thought of that, And so 844 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 1: that I think is gonna put it's gonna put a 845 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 1: lot of pressure on Brad and Tracy Smith, the two 846 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 1: Special Teams coaches, to try and come up with some 847 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 1: unique things to watch during preseason to see what teams 848 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,640 Speaker 1: are doing. Are they're doing anything a little different than 849 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:36,960 Speaker 1: the way you're doing it, Are there tweaks that you 850 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:38,840 Speaker 1: can look at and go, oh, okay, I think we 851 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,880 Speaker 1: can do this. I think and he made a great comment. 852 00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 1: He said, the first three weeks, in the last three 853 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:46,280 Speaker 1: weeks of special teams can always be really difficult because 854 00:41:46,320 --> 00:41:48,879 Speaker 1: you go from preseason when you get a lot of 855 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 1: different players that are fighting ferasco spots or doing it 856 00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,200 Speaker 1: through special teams. But then you get to the season 857 00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 1: and now you got a bunch of new special teams guys, 858 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:58,919 Speaker 1: because it's guys that that we're you know, we're gonna 859 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:00,920 Speaker 1: make the roster. Those other guys got cut, et cetera. 860 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:02,719 Speaker 1: And so the first three weeks you're gonna be tough. 861 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 1: Then you throw this on top of it. I think 862 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:08,120 Speaker 1: the first few weeks of Special Teams are gonna be 863 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:12,480 Speaker 1: really intriguing. I don't look good or bad, but very intriguing, 864 00:42:12,600 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 1: like where do we go with this? Like what's it 865 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 1: gonna be? So I'm really curious to see how that 866 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: all goes. But that's that's definitely. One thing that has 867 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 1: uh stood out to me was definitely that you said 868 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:30,440 Speaker 1: you had Famba Kamalu looks a lot slimmer, trimmer and 869 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,360 Speaker 1: smelter and quicker than he did last year, not that 870 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: he was slow by any gains, but just he was bigger. 871 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 1: They were gonna move him around. I wonder what he's 872 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:40,400 Speaker 1: gonna do this year. And I talked to coach mcgano 873 00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:41,840 Speaker 1: a little bit about him, and he said it's all 874 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: about consistency and the efforts all there. He just has 875 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,400 Speaker 1: to keep putting it together. The weights on the roster 876 00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,040 Speaker 1: when you see them, there's no way he's too He's not. 877 00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:53,680 Speaker 1: There's no way he's listening. Was not three hundred last year? Yeah, 878 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 1: there's no way. He was mentioned many times. He's not 879 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:59,200 Speaker 1: three hundred pounds. Yeah, he's probably in the good two 880 00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,560 Speaker 1: seventy five. I joy that. Yeah, And I think that's 881 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 1: wear it well. I mean it's yeah, he's he's wearing 882 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 1: it well. I mean, I'm sure I was two seventy 883 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,280 Speaker 1: five at one point. My fat life six five six. 884 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,359 Speaker 1: It says six six. Yeah. Height I would definitely go 885 00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 1: with because I just I want to see what you 886 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,959 Speaker 1: brought up with LaTroy Lewis earlier as far as maybe 887 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 1: being a guy that impacts his roster is up one 888 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: of those guys. I want to see what Kamalu does 889 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,319 Speaker 1: because during the preseason last year, he looked like he 890 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 1: was going to be able to do some things for you, 891 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: no question, you fault. Mccamala is going to be somebody 892 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,239 Speaker 1: that we keep our eyes on as we go to 893 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 1: training camp. And big thanks to Mark, to Drew the 894 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 1: Anthony Midget for stopping by.
