1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:11,240
Speaker 1: Your ball. I don't know, Oh, definitely feel good, you know,

2
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:13,640
Speaker 1: just coming back to you know, getting the ball in

3
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 1: my hand again, showing what I can do, showing my

4
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 1: versatility along with doing fullback stuff and special teams. So

5
00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:21,239
Speaker 1: you know, it just feels good to put the ball

6
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: in my hands and just really show what I can do.

7
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:32,360
Speaker 1: I love showing what I can do. Oh yeah, you're right.

8
00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,120
Speaker 1: But like I said, like before, Judge he looked at

9
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 1: us as like football players, so like as far as

10
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: like having like a true position, he kind of doesn't

11
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 1: look at football like that. You know. He kind of

12
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 1: put people in different situations, different positions and stuff like that. So,

13
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:48,159
Speaker 1: you know, me and Coloring, we talk about it all

14
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: the time that we don't even like calling ourselves like

15
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:52,599
Speaker 1: fullback because when you think of a fullback you think

16
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:54,920
Speaker 1: of like a meathead type of guy. And we're like, now,

17
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: we like carrying the ball and catching the ball and

18
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: stuff like that. So, uh, you know, having him around

19
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: is good, and like I said, you know, we kind

20
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,320
Speaker 1: of just look at ourselves. It's like football players first,

21
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: you know, I know it was a different position, but

22
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: young player like Andrew Thomas struggles on the offense, you

23
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 1: ain't an actually guy like that try to love you

24
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: know how that process? Well, yeah, definitely, especially when you

25
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 1: got somebody like Andrew, you know, with a guy with

26
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: a lot of potential, you know, and he's he's hard

27
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: on himself, so it's kind of like you really don't

28
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: even have much to really say to him. You know

29
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 1: when you get to the sideline or when we watch

30
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 1: film or something, he already knows what you gotta work

31
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 1: on and you know all that stuff. But just us

32
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: the guys being there for him and encouraging him, you know,

33
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:50,680
Speaker 1: it's always good for him too. Seems like he gets outside.

34
00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,240
Speaker 1: Well anytime you missing, you got a player like that

35
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: that's missing, you know, with big play capability on any

36
00:01:58,280 --> 00:01:59,760
Speaker 1: time he touched the ball, and you know that's a

37
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: as just having them out there. And then again for

38
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: me just playing with him for four years now, like

39
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: I know his energy, I know where to motivate him

40
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 1: and I know where to get him going. So you know,

41
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: just watching him and being back with us on the

42
00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 1: sideline of him bringing that energy and his competitive spirit

43
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 1: to the meeting rooms and stuff like that, it's it's

44
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: it's huge. It's very huge that a two minute drive

45
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: for you guys, John the boots. Is that important especially

46
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: for like the first team offensive for the offensive gene, Yeah, definitely,

47
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 1: because those are situations we practiced during like you know,

48
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 1: throughout practice, and you know we put a big emphasis

49
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 1: on that this week. So you know, just just you know,

50
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,080
Speaker 1: executing that and getting that done was you know, that

51
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: was that was a big time for Yeah, as as

52
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:58,520
Speaker 1: a football player, you think for all these person teams.

53
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,119
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's part of the reason why

54
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 1: he just says, like, you know, you guys are football players,

55
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 1: you know, because as you know, as well as I

56
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,840
Speaker 1: do fullback, I can do running back and then when

57
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: I go out on teams and you know, I can

58
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,799
Speaker 1: cover kicks and you know, protecting uh with protection and

59
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: all that stuff. So you know, I think when he

60
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 1: mentioned that, I think that's what he means by like,

61
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: you know, being a good football player. I think he means, like,

62
00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 1: you know, all three phases, you know, being able to catch, run, block,

63
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: play special teams, all that good old stuff. Offense in

64
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 1: the games. We'll give you off optimism office, I feel

65
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: like like we were focused in with like just this

66
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: this training camp off season. We have more time together

67
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 1: and then we really we watched film a lot on

68
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,360
Speaker 1: last year and then we really kind of just focus

69
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,080
Speaker 1: on the little things in the details and just you know,

70
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: just simple stuff for just staying ahead of the chains

71
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: with our offense so we can call the players that

72
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 1: we want to call. So you know, I think that

73
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,160
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, just saying with like, you know,

74
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,800
Speaker 1: what we what we've done throughout the preseason and training camp,

75
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: I think that will be a better offense just because

76
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 1: we focused on like the little things in the details

77
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. I've seen a lot of poise,

78
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,799
Speaker 1: uh you know, uh just comfortable, relaxed, hitting his checkdowns,

79
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: going through his reads, looking real good, looking real like,

80
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,040
Speaker 1: you know, looking mature. And he looked like that all

81
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: throughout camp. So yeah, I'm excited for Djin. I think

82
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,920
Speaker 1: he reacts like he like he always do, Like he

83
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: once he make a good play or you make a

84
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 1: bad play, he always kind of just like onto the

85
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: to the next play, like you know, he like his

86
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: mental toughness is you know great like he he doesn't.

87
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 1: I don't think any moment it's too big for him.

88
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: So when he has a good play or a bad play,

89
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: he just keep it going.
