All right, Ayisha, 32 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: we were at practice this morning. What was the first 33 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 2: thing you noticed? And I just I know what she's 34 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 2: going to say because she was hitting me and she 35 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 2: was like, why is nobody tweeting this yet? What is 36 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: the first thing you saw a practice today? 37 00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 5: Oh? 38 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, Jordan Lewis was back out there, and I was 39 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 3: good to see coming back from that Liz Frank injury. 40 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 3: I didn't know how serious a Liz Frank was, and 41 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 3: so Christy came on to the show last year and 42 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 3: just explain in depth just how long the recovery can be, 43 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 3: how tedious it can be in just the injuries. So 44 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 3: so to see him back there, I think he got 45 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 3: some work with the Tues today. Was able to catch 46 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 3: up with him in the locker room and just ask 47 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 3: him because my biggest concern with any player coming off 48 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 3: of a foot injury is can you explode off of 49 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 3: it are you, how are you breaking on the ball 50 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 3: and things like that, and he was and he just 51 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 3: told me like, yeah, I feel I feel great. But 52 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 3: you could also see that he still he still feel like, 53 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,080 Speaker 3: feels like and looks like himself. So I thought that 54 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 3: was the highlight of practice, is just finally getting to 55 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 3: see him back there and knowing how hard his recovery 56 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 3: was getting. 57 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,679 Speaker 6: Back yeah, and the fact that the staff had enough 58 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 6: confidence that he would be ready. That's the frankly, one 59 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 6: of the reasons why Kelvin Joseph was dealt to the 60 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 6: Dolphins because Kelvin had been playing second team slot nickel corner. 61 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 6: Kelvin his first few years, he'd always played outside, but 62 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 6: this offseason and then through preseason in camp, they had 63 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 6: him playing in the slot behind Deron Bland. So, as 64 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 6: you said, he was working second team. So Deron Bland 65 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:03,400 Speaker 6: remains first team nickel corner. But to see Jay Lou 66 00:03:03,440 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 6: out there, and I think what fans don't have an 67 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 6: appreciation for is the respect that not just the coaching 68 00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 6: staff but the teammates have for Jordan. And he's got 69 00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 6: some dog in him. I mean, he's a little guy. 70 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 6: He's not one of the biggest guys on the field, 71 00:03:19,120 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 6: but he is a real leader and brings a real 72 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 6: swagger to that defense. So I totally agree that was 73 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 6: the highlight of practice and we should mention that the 74 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 6: reason why they were practicing this morning. Coach McCarthy prefers 75 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 6: that the team practice outside whenever possible because one of 76 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 6: the two outdoor practice fields is a natural grass field, 77 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 6: so they always want to be on the natural grass 78 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 6: if they can. But with a tremendous heat that we've 79 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 6: had in Texas all summer and more one hundred degree 80 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 6: temperature days this week, are practicing early in the morning, 81 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 6: eight o'clock Central, just to try and get out. 82 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 7: Of that heat. 83 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, and if you guys have not been to the 84 00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 2: Star just yet, if you haven't had the chance to 85 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 2: do a tour, you do know that there's the two 86 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 2: practice fields. But I do want to give you a 87 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 2: good idea today's weather forecast. Mind you, hour by hour, 88 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 2: it just gets hotter and hotter. So today it looks 89 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 2: like there's a high of ninety seven. The problem is 90 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 2: is the reflection on that grass and kind of how 91 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 2: low it is to the ground to where you don't 92 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 2: get any wind, so it honestly feels like you're kind 93 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 2: of baking out there. 94 00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. 95 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 7: We're surrounded by glass buildings. 96 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, and there's a. 97 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 2: Reflection of the glass that hits the field hence will 98 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 2: hit back up to the players and then there's really 99 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:27,719 Speaker 2: no airflow down there. 100 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 4: This morning it did feel nice though. This morning was nice. 101 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 2: It was nice and cool. There something I wanted to 102 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 2: make sure to mention. We were talking about Jordan Lewis, 103 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: and yesterday in the locker room got to catch up 104 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 2: with him. He was really excited to talk to everybody. 105 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 2: And what I really appreciate about him is his openness 106 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 2: to talk about mentally how much he struggled throughout this injury. 107 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 2: So it wasn't just something that he was dealing with physically, 108 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 2: but also mentally. And I think that's an important part 109 00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 2: when talking about players coming back from injury, and we've 110 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 2: talked about that on this podcast before, is how players 111 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,680 Speaker 2: have to recover from that as well. So he talked 112 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 2: about that, but he also made sure to mention that 113 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 2: the guys that were pulling him out during that time 114 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 2: were his coaches. He mentioned Dan Quinn, he mentioned Mike McCarthy, 115 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 2: he mentioned Joe Witt, He mentioned El Harris and he 116 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 2: said those were his guys that kind of helped him 117 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:25,040 Speaker 2: through it. So again that coach and that player bond 118 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,400 Speaker 2: that this team has. There's connection all throughout this locker room. 119 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 2: And so I thought that was a really important thing 120 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: to touch base on. Moving on, because Chris, you started 121 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 2: talking about it. Calvin Joseph traded to the Miami Dolphins, 122 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: and we were trying to learn how to say this 123 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 2: name correctly. So I figured today would be a good 124 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 2: day we could all learn together, and Christy and I 125 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 2: if we start saying it back and forth, nominee yes. 126 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 7: So we're just gonna call him Iggy. 127 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 6: And his first name is Noah, So either Noah or Iggy, 128 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 6: whichever one you want to go. 129 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,279 Speaker 2: If you're watching Noah Ignominie. He comes from the Dolphins. 130 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 2: Another corner back there. And I thought what was interesting 131 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 2: was during mac McCarthy's press conference, he was asked about 132 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 2: the trade for Calvin Joseph or the Kelvin Joseph and 133 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 2: noahe trade. 134 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 7: Job, way to go, just rolls off our tongue. 135 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 4: I was working on it. 136 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,640 Speaker 6: We're fifty two scramble points, by the way. 137 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 2: Look, I love me a good scramble went there, but 138 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 2: he said that kind of the deciding factor when doing 139 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 2: this was where these guys play on the field, and 140 00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: he felt like Kelvin Joseph from what he understood. He 141 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 2: made sure to mention I'm not the guy on the phone, 142 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 2: but that the Dolphins had an interest in Kelvin Joseph 143 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 2: because he could play on the inside as compared Toine, 144 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 2: who's going to be playing a little bit more on 145 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: the outside, and that's what they were looking for. So 146 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 2: that trade did come down. Wishing Kelvin Joseph all of 147 00:06:55,240 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 2: the best there, ladies. As far as roster cuts, all 148 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:04,479 Speaker 2: of that. We'll get into that the second day or 149 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 2: the second day, Oh my goodness, hello, the second segment. 150 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 2: Something else I wanted to touch base on today because 151 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 2: we had a chance, like I said, to go through 152 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: press conferences and then the locker room. 153 00:07:16,840 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 4: Is Trey Lance. Welcome to Dallas, Trey Lance. 154 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 2: That was another really cool interview to watch and to 155 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 2: talk to him, Christy. You asked him a question specifically, 156 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: and it was something that we had talked about on 157 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 2: the podcast about returning to Frisco after that championship game, 158 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 2: and he lit. 159 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 4: Up when you asked him about it. 160 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 2: So for me watching that was a really cool interaction 161 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 2: because when I when we're in the scrum with the player, 162 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 2: sometimes I just like to look at them to see 163 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 2: how they react to certain things. 164 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 4: He lit up like the fourth of July. 165 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 6: Well, well, I did get to visit a little more 166 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 6: with him about that particular game. And what we're talking 167 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 6: about is Trey Lance, of course, starred at North Dakota 168 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 6: State and won every award that you can win for 169 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 6: that division of football and that tremendous twenty nineteen season 170 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 6: thirty touchdown passes, zero interceptions, over eleven hundred rushing yards 171 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 6: and fourteen rushing touchdowns. But the FCS championship game is 172 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 6: played in Frisco, Texas outdoors at Toyota Stadium, that's the 173 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 6: home of our MLS team, FC Dallas. Well, what we 174 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 6: were laughing about was it actually snowed the morning of 175 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 6: that game. But it's all these people are from North Dakota. 176 00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 6: They come down in North Dakota State plays in the 177 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 6: championship game nearly every year. So it's a joke in 178 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 6: Frisco that you see it's cold here, but everyone is 179 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 6: wearing green and golden there in shorts, and that's how 180 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 6: you know that they're from North Dakota and here for 181 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 6: North Dakota State. But yeah, I thought that Trey Lance 182 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 6: when he spoke to the media yesterday, he showed the humility. 183 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 6: He knows exactly, he knows he's third string, he knows 184 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,760 Speaker 6: Dak is the man here, and he talked about, you know, 185 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 6: I'll do whatever I can to develop and here to 186 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 6: support the team and help them any way I can 187 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:06,319 Speaker 6: in the way that that's going. 188 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 7: To be this year. 189 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:11,679 Speaker 6: Hopefully Dak and Cooper stay healthy all year. But it's 190 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 6: practice squad quarterbacks. 191 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:14,400 Speaker 7: So he's going to be. 192 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 6: Daniel Jones, he's going to be Aaron Rodgers. He's going 193 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,480 Speaker 6: he's going to be Jalen Hurts, and so he'll be 194 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,840 Speaker 6: able to properly simulate especially a lot of those run 195 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 6: you know, that was a big part of his game 196 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,680 Speaker 6: and in college and one of the big draws for 197 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 6: the forty nine ers when they dealt up to trade 198 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 6: it up to take him number three overall just a 199 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:39,719 Speaker 6: few years ago. 200 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just had the he talked about practice. Just 201 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 3: had the first time to just kind of watch him, 202 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 3: and I was just paying attention to his mechanics and 203 00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 3: just paying attention to just kind of how the ball 204 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 3: comes off his hands. And there's a lot of similarities 205 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 3: and he and Dak's game. Oh yeah, I could definitely 206 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 3: see that. I could see that very quickly, Like, Okay, 207 00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 3: there's similarities in their stands, even their gait. I'm sorry, 208 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,600 Speaker 3: I know that's weird, but that's. 209 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 7: Just the security background in me. 210 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 3: Their presence is similar, so I understand. 211 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 7: I kind of understand, you know. 212 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 3: The player, but also too, I just I was watching 213 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 3: Mike McCarthy just kind of talk him through. QB school 214 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 3: is such a unique thing guys like I don't think 215 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 3: people understand that not every coaching staff has a like 216 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,559 Speaker 3: plan to bake a curriculum for a quarterback. And Dak Prescott, 217 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 3: even though he's going into what is eighth year now, 218 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,719 Speaker 3: he's talked about how much QB School has even helped him. 219 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 3: So for someone like Trey Lance, this is going to 220 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 3: be such good time. And you can see that he 221 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 3: is thrilled to learn. He's hungry, he's hungry to get 222 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 3: more knowledge in this position. But I really was just 223 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 3: looking at his arm today, and I mean even from 224 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 3: him like a small scale, I was like that dude 225 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 3: has a canned a cannon and so yeah, just looking 226 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:57,079 Speaker 3: forward to seeing him development, his him developed. I think 227 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 3: the change of scenery is good and every every every 228 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 3: quarterback deserves the opportunity to develop in this league. I 229 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 3: think we've become a little microwave with the pack Mahon, 230 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 3: Pat Mahomes and a lot of these guys coming out. 231 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 3: So I'm excited to see him get busy. 232 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, and we let's also mention that he is wearing 233 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 6: number fifteen. And I don't know if there are reports 234 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 6: that Will Greer is about to start with about to 235 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 6: say that everybody, you're killing me, everybody. 236 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 2: No, Yeah, Will Greer, there were reports, like you just 237 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:31,360 Speaker 2: said that he is signing with the Bengals practice squad, 238 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 2: which I think is a great room for him to 239 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 2: grow in under Joe by Hello, and that's. 240 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 6: A major Joe Burrow may not he has the injury 241 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:40,199 Speaker 6: and he may not be ready by the start of 242 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 6: the regular season. 243 00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 7: So Greer, you know, it's opportunity and competition. 244 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 5: Yeah. 245 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 2: What I really liked about Trey Lance and I think 246 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,079 Speaker 2: this is one of those situations where if it wasn't 247 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 2: the Dallas Cowboys, it wouldn't be so blown up. Is 248 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 2: that he made it very very clear that Dak welcomed 249 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: him with open arms, and that was one of the 250 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: first things he said is I want to be a sponge. 251 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 2: I want to learn from Dak Prescott. He welcomed me 252 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 2: with open arms. And I love that that narrative is 253 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: shut down when Trey Lance is saying that there was 254 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,599 Speaker 2: no weird friction there with Dak and Trey, and I 255 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: just really appreciated that he mentioned that. He even said, 256 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 2: and we talked about this on the podcast earlier this week, 257 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 2: that he texted Dak during his ankle injury, traded to 258 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 2: kind of get advice in that, you know, understanding that 259 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 2: Dak knows that aspect of the game. And so I 260 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 2: thought that was really cool. I don't know if you 261 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 2: saw me when he said. 262 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,040 Speaker 4: That, I was like, yes, thank you for mentioning that. 263 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 2: Other than that, again, he said he had a really 264 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: big smile on his face when he heard that he 265 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 2: was coming to Dallas, and the overall, he's just trying 266 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 2: to move on. He's just trying to move on from 267 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 2: everything that happened with the forty nine ers. He just 268 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 2: wants a fresh start and he believes. 269 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 4: Everything happens for a reason. 270 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 2: So really really excited to get to see what he does. 271 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 2: And something you mentioned about why him at practice, it's 272 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 2: funny you watch the mechanics of things, and I kind 273 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 2: of just watch how he interacted. And they were doing 274 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 2: drills where they were turning and they were positioning certain ways, 275 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 2: and at first he. 276 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:11,320 Speaker 4: Wasn't catching on. 277 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 2: You could see a moment where he stopped he thought 278 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 2: about it, and then as soon as he stopped and 279 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 2: thought about it, he caught on quickly. 280 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 4: So the little bit of practice that we. 281 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 2: Saw today, something I noticed is that he catches on 282 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 2: extremely quick and that's what he said is right now 283 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 2: is all about learning.

So I understand it 333 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 2: is just a business, and the NFL's a business like 334 00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 2: any other business, but I think it is important. 335 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 4: Are you okay, you just gonna checked up?

Some of 343 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 4: y'all's Twitter comments are. 344 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 2: Off the lik drives me nuts, But ladies, any surprises 345 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 2: with the roster cuts yesterday. 346 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 4: Anything that kind of threw you for a loop that 347 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 4: you weren't. 348 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 2: Expecting, whether it be somebody that made the team or 349 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: somebody that didn't make the final. 350 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 5: Cut titter tots. 351 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 3: I want to say, I don't know, I don't think 352 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 3: anything so crazy enough. 353 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 5: Nothing surprised me yesterday. 354 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:00,960 Speaker 3: And I think maybe that's maybe that's because we have 355 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 3: had the opportunity this year. 356 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 5: I know last year I wasn't. 357 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 3: Really involved in training camp and OTA's and mini camp 358 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:11,480 Speaker 3: and stuff like that. But to kind of see things yourself, 359 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 3: I guess like up front, I thought that everything seemed 360 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 3: kind of on par with what I thought would happen. 361 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 3: And then obviously too, we're going to talk about the 362 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 3: practice squad and the utilization of the practice squad. I 363 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 3: felt like a lot of the cuts made since for 364 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 3: what is going on with this team currently right now. 365 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was mildly surprised that both Brock Kaufman and 366 00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 6: Mark matt faucon that's release. That was a mild surprise. 367 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 6: But now, if three months ago you'd have told me 368 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 6: that that TJ. Bass and Hunter Lipke and Brandon Aubrey, 369 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 6: who had not been signed at the time, were going 370 00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 6: to be Dallas Cowboys, I'd be like, I don't know 371 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 6: about that. But to Ayosha's point, and Jess, I think 372 00:17:57,800 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 6: you will. I think we would all agree on this. 373 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:03,919 Speaker 6: Those of us who were here for the off season 374 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,360 Speaker 6: practices here for many camp and OTAs those of us 375 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 6: that were in Oxnard for twenty four days. Not a 376 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 6: surprise at all that that TJ. Bass made it because 377 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:20,920 Speaker 6: she could see when he's that Josh Ball. Now he's 378 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,400 Speaker 6: signed to IR, but TJ. Bass had surpassed Josh Ball 379 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:26,600 Speaker 6: in terms of getting the first team reps at right 380 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 6: guard in the place of Zach Martin. You saw that 381 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:34,040 Speaker 6: Brandon Aubrey was very consistent, and this is even before 382 00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 6: he nailed the fifty nine yarder. You know now if 383 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 6: he'd shanked to thirty seven yarders in Saturday's game, would 384 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 6: we be saying a different story. But Hunter Lipke was 385 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 6: it was Saturday that he played his spot, that he 386 00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,919 Speaker 6: played his way onto the fifty three man roster. I 387 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 6: mean before that, I would have said he's definitely a 388 00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 6: practice squad candidate. He's going to be on the practice squad. 389 00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 6: You In fact, the practice squad is made specifically to 390 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 6: develop guys like this. But the fact that lip Key 391 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 6: was kept and Malik Davis was released. 392 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 7: You know, Malik is someone that they want to bring 393 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,400 Speaker 7: back to the practice squad. So some of these. 394 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 6: Names like the brock Hoffman's, those guys they're coming back 395 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 6: unless they get picked up on waivers claimed by other teams. 396 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 6: And the key thing, and we'll talk more about this 397 00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 6: with a practice squad, the way that it works is 398 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 6: a big change is now you can have up to 399 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 6: six veterans on the team and so that's why you 400 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 6: can release people would say, why are they releasing their 401 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 6: long snaper Trent Sieg, Well, you're gonna put him on 402 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,400 Speaker 6: the practice squad and activate him for the first three 403 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 6: games and by yourself all the way into October before 404 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 6: you have to commit a spot on your fifty three 405 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 6: scan real quick. 406 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 2: You brought up Brandon Aubrey and Steve from Virginia wants 407 00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 2: to know what kind of year we're expecting for Brandon Aubrey, 408 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 2: and then he made sure to mention I think he's 409 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 2: going to be really good. So thank you Steve for 410 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 2: the positivity. 411 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 4: I love that. 412 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,239 Speaker 2: I'll start with this one because kicker was something that 413 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 2: I was worried about as soon as the Brett Maher 414 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 2: era was. 415 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 4: No longer an era. 416 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 2: I I like the progression you've seen from Brandon Aubrey, 417 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 2: and I think with kicking, it's also such a mental 418 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 2: game to where it's so easy to get down on 419 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 2: yourself and show the lack of confidence. And when it 420 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 2: comes to kicking, you know when somebody is not playing confident, 421 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 2: You know when they're not confident in that. But I 422 00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:37,280 Speaker 2: think the progression he's had from even just the time 423 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,360 Speaker 2: where he became the only kicker on the roster has 424 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,240 Speaker 2: improved tremendously because it was kind of neck to neck 425 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 2: at camp at the start of it, when it was 426 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 2: Brandon Aubrey and Yeah, and they were kind of neck 427 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,719 Speaker 2: to neck. But then as soon as that was no 428 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 2: longer a factor and he was the only one that 429 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,960 Speaker 2: could take those reps. It almost seem like that boosted 430 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 2: him up a lot more and he was able to 431 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 2: play just play. And that sounds so simple, but you 432 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 2: could tell he was just playing to play. And I 433 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 2: also think during that time too, he was adjusting to 434 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 2: being with the Cowboys because at that point too, you 435 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 2: still have a game plan to learn. You still have 436 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 2: things to learn and adjust to, even if you're just 437 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 2: a kicker. You have a different snapper, you have a 438 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,479 Speaker 2: different coaching staff. There's still stuff you need to adjust 439 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,920 Speaker 2: to at that point too. So for me personally, I'm 440 00:21:29,960 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 2: excited to see more Brandon Aubrey. 441 00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 6: Oh, it's really It's an awesome story. Three years ago, 442 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 6: he and his wife are watching an NFL game on 443 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 6: TV and she says, well, you could do that. 444 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 7: It's like okay, and so then he. 445 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 6: Literally googles personal kicking Coach, finds a name. 446 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 7: You know, he's here. 447 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 6: He's working at GMAC and Arlington, Yeah, you know, driving 448 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 6: over to Arlington each day and looks up personal kicking Coach, 449 00:21:59,600 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 6: gets with one and he's he's the only adult, this 450 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 6: personal Kicking Coach has a bunch of high school and 451 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 6: junior high kids out there teaching kicking, and here's Brandon, 452 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:12,439 Speaker 6: who's an ML's first round draft pick, a soccer player, 453 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,399 Speaker 6: and then he ends up signing with the USFL and 454 00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:17,160 Speaker 6: kicking two seasons in the NFL. 455 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 7: So, but just it was it Steve who had sent 456 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:22,440 Speaker 7: the question. 457 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 6: Steve, in case you weren't with USTe a few weeks 458 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 6: ago or a couple of weeks ago when we were 459 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 6: talking on the podcast, I just want to mention that 460 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 6: it really the weight of the recommendation the opinion of 461 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:39,000 Speaker 6: Chris Boniol, who was Cowboys kicker in the nineteen nineties. 462 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 6: I'll remember him from Hey, he has a Super Bowl ring. 463 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 6: He was part of the Dynasty of the nineteen nineties, 464 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 6: and then of course later he was an assistant special 465 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 6: teams coach here with the Cowboys, but he was Brandon's 466 00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 6: kicking coach for the Birmingham Stallions of the USFL. And 467 00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 6: so you know, Bonyol recommended him to John Fossil, and 468 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,840 Speaker 6: Fossil had already kind of had an eye on Brandon anyway, 469 00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 6: and so that recommendation carried a lot of weight. 470 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think too, something that Mike McCarthy's been 471 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 2: mentioning a lot when it comes to Brandon Aubrey is 472 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 2: his concern of not having that NFL experience. However, he said, 473 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 2: you guys seem to forget he's coming off of a season. 474 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 4: It's not like this guy's an. 475 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 6: Excellent and excellent season, perfect season, really all star season, 476 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 6: and so USFL. 477 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so McCarthy's been very quick to mention guys, 478 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 2: his legs are warm. He's been getting that in game experience, 479 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 2: whether it was here or not. It's not like he 480 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 2: hasn't been kicking. 481 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 6: And he is a professional athlete, you know, in soccer, 482 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 6: star at Notre Dame and then MLS first round draft 483 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,679 Speaker 6: pick by Toronto and so, yes, he's a rookie, but 484 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 6: he's an older guy. I think he's twenty eight years 485 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 6: old anyway, twenty six and so he and he's got 486 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 6: that steady Eddy mindset, you know, very very consistent and 487 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 6: very focused. 488 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 2: It's funny talking to him because I just feel like 489 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 2: he's so stoic in a way to where he doesn't 490 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 2: leave the practice mode focus, if you will. Every time 491 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,600 Speaker 2: I've talked to him, he's a man of few words. 492 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 2: But that's all he needs to say is like, I'm 493 00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 2: gonna get it done and that's it. And so he's 494 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 2: very focused and I'm really excited for him. And so 495 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 2: I think, too, this does you good in the long 496 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 2: term because this is something that even Jerry Jones has 497 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 2: talked about since post draft of I want a younger guy. 498 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:32,119 Speaker 4: Jerry said after the draft. 499 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 2: He feels like younger guys don't get the yips as much, 500 00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:37,200 Speaker 2: but he wants a younger guy. And I think that's 501 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 2: a smart approach to have because this kicking cycle of 502 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 2: finding somebody new every year, it's just one least thing 503 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 2: you have to worry about if you find somebody that's 504 00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 2: a little more long term that can solidify their spot, 505 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 2: you know, like Brandon Aubrey has a chance this year 506 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 2: to prove that he's that guy gets you going again 507 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 2: and again and again and gets you in a consistent 508 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:54,160 Speaker 2: kicker era. 509 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,360 Speaker 6: Yes, when I want to be in when the least 510 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 6: times A Cowboys truly surprised everyone with a decision and 511 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 6: going with a guy that didn't have NFL experience. 512 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 7: It worked out pretty well. It was a guy named 513 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:04,959 Speaker 7: Dan Bailey. 514 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 6: So and and the thing about Dan Bailey was that 515 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 6: was the season where there was the lockout, and Chris 516 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 6: Jones was rookie punter that that year as well, and 517 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 6: so those guys in training camp started late. That's when 518 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 6: we were in San Antonio, and so you're going so 519 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 6: they didn't have an off season. And it's so important 520 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,479 Speaker 6: when you're a kicker, and usually the punter is your holder. 521 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 6: But we also have to remember that not only do 522 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 6: we have a new kicker, but we have Trent See 523 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 6: who I mentioned earlier, is your new deep snapper. And 524 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:42,120 Speaker 6: so it's all about operation. And you know, it's it's 525 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 6: a three it's basically a three man team. We focus 526 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 6: on just the kicker, but the deep snapper and the 527 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 6: holder are just as important because if any part of 528 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 6: it's off, that's that's the problem. You know, all three 529 00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 6: have to accomplish their jobs perfectly to properly execus to 530 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 6: feel goal or extra point real quick. 531 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,080 Speaker 2: Something I wanted to mention because we were talking about 532 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,439 Speaker 2: moves that surprised us, and I don't necessarily think it 533 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 2: was a surprising move, but I think it was one 534 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 2: of the bigger moves because releasing Sean McEwan really solidified 535 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 2: and fortified that spot for Hunter Lipkey to come in 536 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 2: and be a fullback on this team. So for me, 537 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 2: I wasn't I knew it would go one way or 538 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 2: the other, right, So I wasn't shocked. I wasn't surprised 539 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 2: by any means. But it was really interesting to see 540 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy's reaction when he was talking about the decision 541 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 2: to do it the day before on a conference call 542 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 2: he had I had asked him about the tight End room. 543 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 4: First guy he brought up with Sean McCown. He said, 544 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:41,119 Speaker 4: he's done a. 545 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 2: Really good job, good job of being the guy, the 546 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,360 Speaker 2: older guy in that room. The guys have meshed well 547 00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 2: with him, they work well together. So then when this, 548 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 2: you know, the release news came out, I was, I was. 549 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:53,120 Speaker 4: I wasn't shocked. 550 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:54,360 Speaker 2: I knew it would go one way or the other, 551 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 2: like I said, but it was interesting to see. And 552 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:02,439 Speaker 2: so what will be in interesting now going forward is 553 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 2: I think he will get into practice squad candidates in 554 00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:07,040 Speaker 2: the next segment. 555 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 4: But I think he's a viable guy for the practice squad. 556 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 2: And I also think too, you're seeing a new era 557 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,560 Speaker 2: of tight End beginning now because they're all younger and 558 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 2: Mike McCarthy doesn't shy away from that being right in 559 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:19,120 Speaker 2: his face. 560 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 4: If this is one of our younger groups. 561 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:22,840 Speaker 2: But again, very similar to what we're talking about with 562 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 2: Brandon Aubrey, you have an opportunity to grow this This 563 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 2: youth and this beautiful blend between youth and experience in 564 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 2: this team makes it so much tighter. 565 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 6: Hey, McCune is one of the key role players on 566 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,959 Speaker 6: this team. Definitely, practice squad. I expect that he's going 567 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,719 Speaker 6: to be on the field opening night at the New 568 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,200 Speaker 6: York Giants here to hear from Yah. Well, we get 569 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 6: into practice squad and you can elevate him. So yeah, absolutely. 570 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 6: Mckune is a core special teams guy. He can play 571 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 6: the f meaning like full back when they take the 572 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,679 Speaker 6: tight end and they line up behind, you know, in 573 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 6: the offensive backfield and move around. McCune is one of 574 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 6: the unsung heroes of the past couple years on this team. 575 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:08,000 Speaker 2: I got to talk to him the last time we 576 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 2: were at the training camp in Frisco and I caught 577 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 2: up with him and I just said, Okay, camp's officially 578 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:16,360 Speaker 2: to an end. 579 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 4: How are you feeling, And he said, I haven't felt better? 580 00:28:19,440 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 2: He said, you know, he switched up his off season 581 00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 2: training a lot to which he feels like has translated 582 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 2: very well for him and that it gave him essentially 583 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 2: a new confidence boost to feel better and go into 584 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 2: this off season feeling at. 585 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,880 Speaker 4: His absolute best, the best that he says he didn't 586 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 4: even know really he could feel that good. 587 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 2: So he played his butt off this preseason and he 588 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 2: made it hard to not notice him, especially out in Oxnard. 589 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 2: He was one of the first guys I was like, 590 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 2: that's Sean, So I'm really proud of what he did. 591 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 2: Excited to see Hunter Lipkey.

So 632 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 2: good for him. Glad that that kicking Colm. That was 633 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 2: another kicking competition that's been talked about all off season, 634 00:31:24,400 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 2: so wishing him the best. And then reports starting to 635 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 2: flow in as well on the Comboys side of things, 636 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 2: saying that the Dallas Cowboys are re signing offensive tackle 637 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 2: or Robostic Junior to their practice squad. 638 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 4: So there you go. 639 00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 2: They have sixteen spots to fill and it looks like 640 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 2: now they have fifteen with that addition. So Christy, let's 641 00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 2: get into that real quick, because I'd love learning from you, 642 00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 2: and I think you know how to explain things that 643 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,600 Speaker 2: happen in this business so incredibly well that it sticks 644 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 2: in people's brains. Let's get into press practice squad logistics 645 00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 2: and foremost we know the practice squad can consist of 646 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 2: sixteen people, but what are the stipulations within that and 647 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,120 Speaker 2: kind of go into that first and then we'll get 648 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 2: into the rest of them. 649 00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,959 Speaker 6: Yeah, so what happened was during COVID, the practice squad 650 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 6: expanded up to sixteen and that's because they knew that 651 00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:22,360 Speaker 6: players may test positive or that you know, or you 652 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 6: just needed extra bodies in the house that we're practicing, 653 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 6: or new game plans that you know that you could 654 00:32:29,840 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 6: have available at the very last minute. It also changed 655 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 6: that you could elevate to practice squad players Saturday, normally Saturday, 656 00:32:38,960 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 6: the day before the game, you can have them available 657 00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 6: for the game. And then it further changed where a 658 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,840 Speaker 6: practice squad player can be elevated to participate on game 659 00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 6: day three different times during the season. But to me, 660 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:57,640 Speaker 6: what's most significant is among those sixteen players, six of 661 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 6: them can be veterans two years or more in the league. 662 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 6: They are paid more than the zero. 663 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 7: Or first year player. 664 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 6: So the minimum weekly check for a practice squad player 665 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 6: is twelve thousand dollars, so twelve thousand dollars per week 666 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:19,720 Speaker 6: during the season, which is eighteen weeks long, because you 667 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 6: have seventeen games plus the bye week. If you were 668 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 6: if you were a rookie or a first year guy, 669 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,520 Speaker 6: and you're on the practice squad the whole season, you're 670 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 6: going to end up with a very nice two hundred 671 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 6: and sixteen thousand dollars. If you are a veteran and 672 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 6: you can again, you can have a maximum of six veterans. 673 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 6: That ranges, but that's a minimum of sixteen thousand, one 674 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,200 Speaker 6: hundred to twenty thousand, six hundred dollars. So a veteran 675 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 6: who's on the practice squad is going to make roughly 676 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 6: between two hundred and ninety and three hundred and seventy 677 00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 6: thousand dollars. What's significant about this is if you have 678 00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 6: sixteen guys making that much money, it starts to add up. 679 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 6: Money paid to to squad players does count against your 680 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 6: salary cap, so every team has to budget and account 681 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,320 Speaker 6: for that. You do not have to have sixteen players. 682 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 6: That's a maximum. You can have less, but to my knowledge, 683 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:18,000 Speaker 6: every team does take advantage of the sixteen. But originally 684 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,840 Speaker 6: it was designed as these young guys and kind of 685 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 6: keep them around and develop them. And it was really 686 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 6: COVID that changed things. There used to be used to 687 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 6: be six players and then eight players, and they were 688 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,440 Speaker 6: going to expand it and with COVID that's why you 689 00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 6: have so many more. So these players can practice, They 690 00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:40,879 Speaker 6: go to all the meetings. A lot of times. They 691 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 6: will travel with the team so that in case, let's 692 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:47,880 Speaker 6: say someone were to get sick, you know, one of 693 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 6: your starters or something, you'll have some practice squad guys 694 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:55,840 Speaker 6: with you if because by Saturday afternoon you can designate 695 00:34:55,880 --> 00:34:57,720 Speaker 6: them to be elevated for that weekend. 696 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,560 Speaker 4: Very good, there enough. 697 00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 2: We got a question in from Kent and Las Crucis 698 00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,720 Speaker 2: shout out to Los Cruses, New Mexico, and he wanted 699 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:10,200 Speaker 2: to know if we think they will sign veteran interior 700 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:11,359 Speaker 2: o line men. 701 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 6: So yeah, I was going to say, in Ayisha, are 702 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 6: you thinking Hoffman or Farniac of one of those two? 703 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 6: And the other thing is with the when we're talking 704 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 6: about signing practice squad guys, it's not just guys that 705 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 6: you've cut, I mean are pro personnel scouting. They're scout 706 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:31,800 Speaker 6: scouring everyone. So so they're going to be a couple 707 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,439 Speaker 6: of a few names on the practice squad that you're 708 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 6: not familiar with because they're plucking. 709 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 7: Them from uh, from different places. 710 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,919 Speaker 6: From places from guys. There are one and eighty four 711 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:47,920 Speaker 6: guys that were cut around the league on yesterday, So 712 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 6: thirty seven players per team and thirty two teams. 713 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,240 Speaker 7: That's what there over eleven hundred names. 714 00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 2: Artist day in the NFL, and uh. 715 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 4: There you go. 716 00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 6: But who are some guys that you guys think names 717 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 6: that boys fans will know that God released that the 718 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,760 Speaker 6: Cowboys want to bring back to for the practice squad. 719 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 4: Practice squad, for the practice squad. 720 00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, obviously, I think Hoffman is a guy 721 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 3: that they I mean, he impressed me in spots. I 722 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 3: didn't know much about him until this season, but you 723 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 3: got to see some of the work he did at 724 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,240 Speaker 3: center and at left guard. 725 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 7: I do think that if you. 726 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,200 Speaker 3: Want to kind of shore up things with seeing what 727 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 3: you've gotten from Awesome Richards, seeing what you've gotten from TJ. Bass, 728 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:29,759 Speaker 3: if you wanted to bring in another interior guy just 729 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,880 Speaker 3: to kind of shure things up there. Really curious to 730 00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:35,799 Speaker 3: see what's gonna happen with the Doga also too. I 731 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 3: don't know if they decide not to bring him back 732 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 3: and what Matt will, let's go dealing being on now 733 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:44,120 Speaker 3: in iry, that swing position is kind of in question 734 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,839 Speaker 3: a little bit, so the swing tackle position, rather so 735 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 3: looking at what they're going to do there and see 736 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 3: if they decide to bring any more gentlemen in to 737 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 3: make sure this offensive line is good to go. Because 738 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:56,520 Speaker 3: you mentioned it's a long season. We'll look up week 739 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 3: fifteen and somebody might get dingmed and say, yeah, you 740 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 3: want to these extra bodies, Dennis. 741 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,720 Speaker 7: Houston, you know they can be got cut. 742 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:09,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, and Isaiah Isaiah Land. The practice squad is perfect 743 00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 6: for a guy like Isaiah Land or Tyrus Wheat and 744 00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:18,399 Speaker 6: these young pass rushers and Malike Davis, you know, bring 745 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 6: him back to the practice squad. And I just want 746 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 6: to just to put a little bow on it. The 747 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:29,080 Speaker 6: one thing about practice squad is it's not like a 748 00:37:29,120 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 6: sentence where you get no parole. If you're on the 749 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 6: practice squad, you can sign with other teams. So throughout 750 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,920 Speaker 6: the year, the Cowboys are looking at other practice squads 751 00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:42,839 Speaker 6: of all the other teams, and uh it happens all 752 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:47,359 Speaker 6: the time where other teams try and uh sign our 753 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 6: practice squad players. So you can do that. You can 754 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 6: sign a you can make an offer to a practice 755 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 6: squad player from another team, but if you do that, 756 00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 6: they have to be on your roster fifty three man 757 00:38:00,920 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 6: roster for at least three weeks. 758 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:04,759 Speaker 7: Otherwise they just be plucking them. 759 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 6: You know, it'd be kind of like college now with 760 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 6: this transfer portal and everyone moving. But that's how it 761 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,359 Speaker 6: works during the season, so you can be called you 762 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 6: can sign with another team real quick. 763 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 4: Another notification. 764 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 2: I love these push notifications, guys, It's so fun. Reports 765 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 2: saying that the Cowboys are going to re sign wide 766 00:38:26,600 --> 00:38:29,399 Speaker 2: receiver Jalen Cropper to the practice squad as well, which 767 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 2: I don't think anybody was really surprised about. Real quick, 768 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 2: we're talking about guys that could be additions. Let's talk 769 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 2: about a guy real quick that was released. 770 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 4: I usual. 771 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:40,640 Speaker 2: I think this is a perfect question for you. Ben 772 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 2: wants to know how we're feeling about Bohanna's departure. He said, 773 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:48,279 Speaker 2: he talked previously with you about his year three progression 774 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,879 Speaker 2: and get off of his leverage much better. He did 775 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,719 Speaker 2: that solid camp in preseason, but didn't make the cut, 776 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,879 Speaker 2: probably due to the team's defensive line depth. Also, can 777 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 2: we say a prayer for Isaiah Land to clear a waiver. 778 00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:01,839 Speaker 2: Keep up the great work, ladies, thinks so much. 779 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:02,839 Speaker 4: Ben aysha, Oh. 780 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that actually was. Actually, that was one of 781 00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 3: the gentlemen that I when you ask the question who 782 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,880 Speaker 3: surprised you? I forgot about him. I forgot about him 783 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 3: and the question. But yeah, Quinton Bohannah was a gentleman 784 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,920 Speaker 3: I was surprised by because I thought I was actually 785 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:18,279 Speaker 3: really pleased with what I saw from him in the 786 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,839 Speaker 3: first two preseason games. I think the third preseason game 787 00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 3: was kind of whatever. But the I feel like his 788 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 3: leverage has been good, he's gotten off the ball well, 789 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 3: and he's always had, you know, that initial step speed. 790 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 3: So maybe he is maybe he does become again a 791 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:34,960 Speaker 3: practice squad guy as well that maybe you can call up. 792 00:39:35,000 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 3: He knows this scheme, he knows how it works. That 793 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,640 Speaker 3: D line. The cuts on the D line probably were 794 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,799 Speaker 3: some of the hardest to do in this, uh, this 795 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:45,040 Speaker 3: whole rotation. 796 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 4: And in this process. 797 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 3: So yeah, I was to your point. 798 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 4: Who's the what's his name? His name is Ben Ben? 799 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 3: Yes, to your point, Ben, I definitely was a little 800 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 3: bit surprised by him being cut, and I may or 801 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,879 Speaker 3: may not have told my grandma to put Zylan on 802 00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:04,319 Speaker 3: the prayer list at church. Say his name, Say his 803 00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 3: name one time for me so you can get on 804 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 3: the practice squad. Yeah.

And he was 823 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:59,239 Speaker 3: the one that I was definitely, you know, I was 824 00:40:59,280 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 3: looking for. 825 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 4: So you kind of beat me to it. 826 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, Chrispine's laughing in my ear and he said the 827 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 2: Deep Snapper. 828 00:41:06,120 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 7: Duh, well yeah, but here's the thing. 829 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 6: That's the that's the difference between like Trent C, who's 830 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,840 Speaker 6: a vested veteran, and then like O Hannah Bohanna is 831 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:21,000 Speaker 6: only three years and so he's exposed to waivers. So 832 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 6: any of those other teams, if any of those teams 833 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 6: claim him, then he can't come back to the Cowboys. 834 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 6: He has to go where to the tares that claims him. 835 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,319 Speaker 6: But a guy like Trent C, you know, you you 836 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,920 Speaker 6: release him, It's like C.
