1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,480
Speaker 1: James, We've been in this league long enough. How difficult

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,520
Speaker 1: or challenging is week to week preparation from a quarterback

3
00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:11,560
Speaker 1: perspective when you guys are not the starting quarterback, Like,

4
00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 1: how much more work do you need to do on

5
00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:17,799
Speaker 1: your own, unsupervised than in the normal structure of practice.

6
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I prepare as if I'm the starting quarterback. Preparation

7
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 2: is preparation. So every single week outcoming is I'm the

8
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 2: first one in this building, and I'm preparing as if

9
00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:30,479
Speaker 2: I'm starting on Sunday, Monday, or Thursday.

10
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 1: I mean in terms of the structure of practice, Like,

11
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,800
Speaker 1: you guys are getting those reps that you would be getting,

12
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:37,599
Speaker 1: so now you have to find other ways to make

13
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:39,519
Speaker 1: up for that, right you guys working after practice?

14
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 2: Man?

15
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,080
Speaker 3: We got VR you know, we watched them.

16
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,559
Speaker 2: I'm getting worked with the young guys after practice, like

17
00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:45,440
Speaker 2: we're working.

18
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 3: And that's required.

19
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:49,479
Speaker 2: That's required being an NFL quarterback, no matter if you're

20
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 2: the starter, no matter if you practice squad.

21
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 3: It's required to put in the work to be prepared.

22
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 4: What has Jackson showing you with his practice habits and

23
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 4: his maturity? I guess as the number two now, man, I.

24
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 2: Think He's just an amazing young quarterback, and I'm so excited.

25
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 2: I see a lot of myself when I watch him,

26
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 2: just his joy, his his charisma with his teammates, his

27
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 2: ability to make every throw on the field, and it's

28
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 2: just a sighting to watch and support him and be

29
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 2: there for him.

30
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 4: Is it uncommon for a young player to have the

31
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 4: work ethic that he does, like after practice, going through

32
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 4: the full script you're out there with him. Is that

33
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 4: uncommon or is that a standard thing that would happen

34
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 4: with a rookie man.

35
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's uncoming, but I believe it's required.

36
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 2: You know, he's he's not waiting for his moment. He's

37
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 2: preparing to be the very best. And I think that

38
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,600
Speaker 2: that's just his makeup. That's he's been working hard at

39
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 2: whole his whole life. So while stop now, how much

40
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,480
Speaker 2: how much benefit do you think there is for a

41
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: young quarterback being able to sit behind veterans and watch

42
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:52,680
Speaker 2: and learn. I think it's a tremendous benefit because of

43
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 2: the experience, you know, you know how they say like,

44
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 2: I'd rather learn from someone else making the mistake and

45
00:01:58,480 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 2: experience in myself.

46
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 3: And some may say like I want to experience it

47
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 3: for myself.

48
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 2: But I think at the quarterback position, like you see

49
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 2: the same thing over and over again, it's just like

50
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 2: that same picture. So being able to be in a

51
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 2: quarterback room with a super Bowl winning quarterback who've seen

52
00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: everything under the what be in a room with a

53
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 2: first pick of the NFL draft who's been a start

54
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 2: in this league to being on a minimum.

55
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 3: I think we bring him just a lot of a lot.

56
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 2: Of perspective and we're able to speak life into him

57
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 2: and to give him everything that's required. Because what I

58
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 2: want for myself I want for everyone, and I want

59
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: him to be as very best. I want Russ to

60
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 2: be as very best. And that's how we push each

61
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 2: other because the young jamis kind of.

62
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:40,359
Speaker 3: Wish you had that. I mean, you were a number

63
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 3: one pick, it's a little bit harder. I think you

64
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 3: can probably that a number one pick.

65
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 2: But do you wish you Like, every every time I

66
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,640
Speaker 2: think about that, I always go back to how grateful

67
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 2: I was that I got a chance to be with

68
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: Ryan Fitzpatrick, you know, when he was in that room

69
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 2: with me and Tampa. Just the joy that he bought

70
00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 2: in the room. And then I got the opportunity with you, Bree,

71
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 2: you know, one of the best to ever do it,

72
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 2: and now with one of the best ever doing now

73
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 2: and Russell Wilson.

74
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,239
Speaker 3: So like it just keeps like it seems like it

75
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 3: keeps happening for me. But you know, I know eventually,

76
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 3: you know.

77
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,400
Speaker 2: It's gonna pay off that these young quarterbacks like you

78
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 2: see with Jordan Love right now, you know, being able

79
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 2: to take his time and now he's shining, you know,

80
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:20,839
Speaker 2: So I think it's good.

81
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 4: Here's the decision to make Jackson two with you as

82
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,639
Speaker 4: the emergency. Was that a difficult one to accept from

83
00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 4: your standpoint giving your standing in the lead and what

84
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 4: you know you can do as a player.

85
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, as a as a competitor, you know you want

86
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 2: to be the starter.

87
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 3: But like I said, I prepare to be the starter.

88
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 3: I know I'm a starter in his lead.

89
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 2: But my role, like I think, you have to be

90
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 2: able to be grateful for your role.

91
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 3: My role right.

92
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 2: Now is to assist Russ and Jackson to being the

93
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 2: best that they can be while preparing to be the

94
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,800
Speaker 2: best that I could be. So no matter if I'm

95
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 2: I'm three or three thirty three or whatever, like this

96
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 2: is my first year being I'm nineteen, so it's always

97
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 2: a first for everything. So I focus on what I

98
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,600
Speaker 2: would love, and what I would love is for this

99
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 2: team to have success.

100
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 3: What did they tell you about that when you know,

101
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 3: when they came and told you, hey, You're going to

102
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 3: be a number three, Jackson's going to be the number two? Like,

103
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,279
Speaker 3: how did they sort of describe it to you?

104
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 2: You did a good job of it, okay, Like, I

105
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 2: think it's as simple as that, you know.

106
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,000
Speaker 3: But I don't take things personally.

107
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 2: You know, I read this book, one of the time

108
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: Brady's favorite books is you know, the Four Agreements. You

109
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, it's being peccable with your word,

110
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 2: you know. Uh, don't take assumptions, you know what I'm saying,

111
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 2: don't take things personal and uh and and focus what

112
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,880
Speaker 2: you love. You know, do your very best. And that's

113
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:38,119
Speaker 2: what I do. You know, I take pride and speaking

114
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 2: lifely to my teammates. You know, I don't assume anything

115
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 2: I work. I prepare, you know, I do my very best.

116
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: You know, just because I was brought here, I didn't

117
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: assume that I was gonna be as true I told Russ,

118
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 2: Like Russ, I want to be starting, you know, and

119
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 2: he's he's okay with that.

120
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 3: Like that, That's how you want the room to be.

121
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 3: You want the room to compete.

122
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,480
Speaker 2: With each other and push each other, and that's how

123
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,160
Speaker 2: you go higher. And uh, and I don't take things,

124
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 2: you know. I'm grateful to being this league. It's my

125
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,960
Speaker 2: eleventh year in this league. And I know it's probably

126
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 2: not thirty two quarterbacks in this league that's better than

127
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 2: I am. But at the end of the day, God

128
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,160
Speaker 2: has given me an amazing platform to be a New

129
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 2: York football giant, and I'm gonna take that with authority

130
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 2: and be my very best.

131
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,680
Speaker 4: Are you would you rather have an opportunity to be

132
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 4: on the field somewhere anywhere or are you excited about

133
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:24,479
Speaker 4: your current role here?

134
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 3: I'm grateful for what my role right now.

135
00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 2: You know. I think anybody who loves football wants to play,

136
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 2: you know, but that is not my case right now.

137
00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:39,279
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna do all I can do with where

138
00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 2: I am, with what I have.

139
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,920
Speaker 1: Jameis you said back in the summer, you know you understand.

140
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 1: I think the coach has said, you know, you're not

141
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 1: just here for for comic relief, and you accepted that

142
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 1: responsibility the whole teammates accountable, and to be the guy

143
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 1: that is a good teammate for everybody, not just in

144
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,280
Speaker 1: the quarterback room. I'm just curious from your perspective from

145
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,400
Speaker 1: week one to week two, thing you saw this week

146
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,000
Speaker 1: that you decided you needed to speak up, anything you

147
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,799
Speaker 1: did to help this team go. From where you guys

148
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: were on Sunday tonight.

149
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:10,880

150
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,400
Speaker 2: been Lee has always been a headline week. I think

151
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,520

152
00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,479
Speaker 2: to do our very best and let's see, let's count

00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,080
Speaker 2: we're playing against the Dallas Cowboys, and we'll see what

155
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:24,920
Speaker 2: the score is at the end.

156
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 3: M
