1
00:00:01,560 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: That's good questions. Yeah, we'll see. We got a couple

2
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:07,120
Speaker 1: of options back there. You know, coach has done it

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,959
Speaker 1: for us in the past. Uh, we grew him a

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 1: couple of other guys, so we'll see, could be run fast,

5
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 1: he can run fast. Yeah, and actually he didn't do it.

6
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:31,040
Speaker 1: Said so we've been training and he you know, he

7
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,880
Speaker 1: did a lot in the spring and uh and our

8
00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: plan was during the preseason to get him like all

9
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,839
Speaker 1: the reps, and it just didn't work out. You know,

10
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,280
Speaker 1: he got the hamstring and all that stuff. So we

11
00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: we've he's catching, he's been catching punch and kicks every

12
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 1: day for the last three months, you know, so just

13
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: hopefully that that work will pay off, you know. And

14
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 1: again we got Cody, you know, we got some other guy.

15
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: So we got Pep back there. So I mean, we

16
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 1: got we got options. Different. Absolutely, it's totally different. I

17
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 1: mean it's you know, it's it's like anything else. I mean,

18
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,479
Speaker 1: the more game experience you get, the better off you are.

19
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: But you know, going from practice to you know, to

20
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 1: the to the game, I mean, it's just totally just

21
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 1: I'm differs the skill set for a quar return and

22
00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 1: kick returner, don't always see an overlap there. Yeah, the

23
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: difference between punt return and kick returner. Obviously, as a

24
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: punt return you gotta be able to track the ball.

25
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: It's a little bit more difficult tracking a pump than

26
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: it is a kickoff. Uh. You gotta be a little

27
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: bit more rugged as a kickoff returner because you're gonna

28
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: take you know, bigger shots. Um, but the skill set

29
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: a lot of it. You know, you've gotta be fearless

30
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: as a punt returner, and the kick return you've gotta

31
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 1: be fearless because it's you're running full speed through tight

32
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: spaces and uh, you know, but that that's for the

33
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: most part, that's the biggest difference, just tracking the ball. Really,

34
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: when you look back at the hunt off the helmet

35
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 1: again in the agent, it's not as simple as one

36
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 1: guy just got pushed back too far and did something else.

37
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: It's one guy beating another guy. And uh, you know,

38
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,600
Speaker 1: Brandon Bolden is a professional special teams players as we

39
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 1: call him in our realm, and uh, he does a

40
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: great job. I mean, he's a he's an elbow player

41
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,639
Speaker 1: and he's been one for the last seven eight years,

42
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: you know, I mean it's it's just Brandon Bolden being

43
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 1: Brandon Bolden, you know, and you just got to play

44
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: with better leverage, better power, and it happened. You know,

45
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,079
Speaker 1: why have you guys kind of settled on take in

46
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,799
Speaker 1: the point returner where it seemed like he was gonna

47
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: be Peppers And well, it's not not so much settling

48
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: because both of those guys will will be out there

49
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,959
Speaker 1: doing it. It's just it's situational, you know what I mean,

50
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,920
Speaker 1: Like when you get out there and you know those

51
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: long drives and you kind of have back to back drives,

52
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: and you know, it's some situations where it's been hot

53
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,800
Speaker 1: early in the year. Uh, some situations to where you

54
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: want to put a pair of fresh legs back there.

55
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 1: So it just depends, you know, it really depends. And

56
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:12,200
Speaker 1: and and PEPs super engaged and he's ready to go

57
00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: in at any time. You know, if we feel like

58
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: we can throw him back there and he can make

59
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,120
Speaker 1: a play and he feels good about it, we're gonna

60
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: put him back there with his speed. Does that Does

61
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,119
Speaker 1: that change the rules at all for when the ball

62
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: comes out of the end zone. Oh, now we're again,

63
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 1: we're very situational when it comes to that um you know,

64
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: depends on on the time of the game and what's

65
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 1: going on the floor of the game. I'm you know,

66
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: when we look at returning kicks and covering kicks, it's

67
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: it's all situational, you know, So we just gotta see

68
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: how the game's going. And then you know, once we

69
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 1: see how it's going, we just make our decision. He

70
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: Le Gonzalas. I mean, they've got two good players like them.

71
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 1: What you can do as far as uh uh you know,

72
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: Gonzalz is a great job of placing his kicks. Uh

73
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: he does a good job, but disguisingmore he's gonna hit

74
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 1: the ball, so it makes a little bit more difficult

75
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 1: as a kickoff return unit. Uh andy, you know, and

76
00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:10,160
Speaker 1: he's a big ball hitter. He's always been that way.

77
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: You know. I had him for two years in Carolina,

78
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 1: so yeah, I'm very familiar with him and who he

79
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,200
Speaker 1: is as as a specialist. So you get a chance,

80
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 1: you know, you just gotta pick your spots. You know,

81
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: when you get a chance to make a play and

82
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 1: then get leave a ball and play, you gotta make

83
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: a play, you know. But both of those guys have

84
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: very good skill system.
