1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:04,080
Speaker 1: Hey, this stuff is well voluntary, right, Um, why are

2
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:09,840
Speaker 1: you here? I mean, I guess you could just say

3
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,200
Speaker 1: that's how much it mean to me, you know, especially

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,400
Speaker 1: just coming off last season, just trying to and I

5
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,159
Speaker 1: feel like the whole team, to be honest, just trying to,

6
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:19,520
Speaker 1: um start off on a good note. You know. I

7
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,880
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, everyone should definitely be here. Um,

8
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:24,119
Speaker 1: and as right now, I mean there's a lot of

9
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: injury going around. I think people actually cited. Um. I

10
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: also think people actually ready to get back in the

11
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 1: building because I mean, after coming off the last year,

12
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 1: it just leaves a bad tasition after you want to

13
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 1: get out. So I know, for me at least, um,

14
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 1: you know, I was ready to get started. Various. Isn't

15
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 1: hear you said everybody should be here? Um, I'm pretty

16
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:43,880
Speaker 1: sure you know he I haven't talked to him in

17
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 1: a while, but UM, I'm pretty sure you know he

18
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:49,720
Speaker 1: has something going on. Um, you know, everything every everything

19
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 1: will work out. You know, I'm pretty sure he's probably

20
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 1: getting into his book. I'm pretty sure he's talked to

21
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:57,080
Speaker 1: coaches and everything. So you know, Um, it's my job

22
00:00:57,120 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 1: and the rest of the receivers and the receiver coach

23
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: to get him one track. So Brian actually said he

24
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: can't get the playbook until he shows up. Obviously, it's

25
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: well I guess that, you know, I don't know nothing

26
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:11,399
Speaker 1: about that thing. Yeah, So I mean, you know you

27
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: said that guys should be here. I mean, he's coming

28
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 1: off of a tough rookie season. So how do you

29
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,039
Speaker 1: kind of reconcile all that? Um, you know, just being

30
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 1: one of older guys in the room. And like I said,

31
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: I haven't talked to him. Um, you know, I'm trying

32
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,039
Speaker 1: to get everything myself in order as far as just

33
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 1: learned to playbook. So I've been on my play a

34
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: little bit. But you know, I'm pretty sure you know,

35
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 1: if I talked to Ship and we kind of know,

36
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: holler at him a little bit, um, you know, I

37
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 1: feel like, you know, he would definitely listen to us.

38
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 1: Do you feel this offense is gonna be geared towards

39
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,119
Speaker 1: you a lot more this season? Obviously you know you're

40
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: coming over a year and there's no touchdowns and all

41
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 1: that you're getting I know, the whole offensive playbook, I

42
00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 1: didn't yet, But do you feel they're gonna be geting

43
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: a lot towards you? Um as right now. You know

44
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: we're putting in a bunch of plays. Um, that's very

45
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: exciting a lot of players. You know, that can trigger

46
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 1: tricker defense. You know, a lot of guys moving around.

47
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: But it's only one ball end of the the day, you know, Um,

48
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: we got three, we got to six. We got new

49
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: guys that's coming in. So you know, only thing I

50
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: could do is come out here every day on the

51
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 1: practice field and you know, put good stuff on tape

52
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 1: and then you know, translate to the games. When you

53
00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:15,959
Speaker 1: see how step on days was utilized, is that raised

54
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: the excitement level for how you can be used? Definitely?

55
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,320
Speaker 1: You know, Um, I would say, you know, we're two

56
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: different players a little bit. You know, his skill says

57
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,680
Speaker 1: a little bit different mine. But for sure, um, Dave's

58
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: and Kafka, you know those are two good guys have

59
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: been from high powered offenses. Um, I'm excited, man, like

60
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: I says, a lot of stuff that's going in. You know,

61
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: they're putting a lot of stuff on my plate, you know,

62
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: and I'm just each and every day putting you know

63
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: that trust in and them and they're gonna do the

64
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: same with men. We just gotta make things happen. Ken, Sorry,

65
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 1: what was your reaction to the last coaching staff getting fired? Uh,

66
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,440
Speaker 1: I mean that that really wasn't my first time, you

67
00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 1: know going through that. UM, I guess you said it

68
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,959
Speaker 1: was pretty surprising. There was a lot of stuff going

69
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 1: on in the media, but you know how you know,

70
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: I guess you know it is what it is. UM,

71
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: I'm just focusing on this year. Let's stamp. Dave's and

72
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,040
Speaker 1: Joe Shane have put on this programs you know since

73
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 1: in a short period of time since they've been here. UM.

74
00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: To be honest as of right now, and I could

75
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: for sure just speak as far as Dave's, he's just

76
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,960
Speaker 1: coming in on a lot of energy. UM, he's coming

77
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 1: in pretty much showing us that you know, this is

78
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,239
Speaker 1: not going to be the same. Um, giants, this isn't

79
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,119
Speaker 1: last year. You know he put it on, he put

80
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,680
Speaker 1: it on, twist on things, a lot of things, and UM,

81
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 1: like I said, it's a lot of injury going you

82
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: know in the building, people staying longer, UM, and I

83
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: feel like we're more together. It's just so a little time.

84
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: So I'm excited. Sorry, can you help driven you to

85
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: turn the page to prove to your team and the

86
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 1: fans that you were well worth the investment that this

87
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 1: team made in you. Very driven, you know, just coming

88
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: in early, staying staying late after practice, doing stuff with DJ.

89
00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 1: This is me and DJ's first time really to actually

90
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: get a legit off season going on. Me coming in

91
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: free agency. You know, I had a lot of moving

92
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: parts going around, um, the COVID and everything. We didn't

93
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: go through O T A. So I feel like, you know,

94
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: this piece right here going through O T A s

95
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: you know, it should be very good. You and Daniel

96
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 1: gotten together outside of here. Uh, Actually we didn't since

97
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 1: we had UM O T A. You know, after while

98
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: you still gotta you know, let go a little bit

99
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,720
Speaker 1: and enjoy the off season. But you know we both

100
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: came back around the same time and we know been

101
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 1: linking up every since. Different five year at all, you know,

102
00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: I mean, um, it was the last coaching stapp was

103
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 1: very intense. You know, Is this like different? Uh? I

104
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 1: would say so, Um, I wouldn't say it's chill, but

105
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 1: at the same time, I mean, we're going to work,

106
00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: but it's it's it's a little bit bit more relaxed,

107
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,800
Speaker 1: which which is which is good. But at the same time,

108
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 1: you know, coach days expect you to get the work done. Um,

109
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 1: And I think that's what everybody like. You know, Yeah,

110
00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,880
Speaker 1: we can joke around all day long, but once we

111
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: step on the football field getting those meeting rooms, you know,

112
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 1: it's the time and place for everything. And I think

113
00:05:04,720 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 1: everybody kind of got that memo. And once we end

114
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 1: the meeting rooms on the practice field, you know, you

115
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 1: kind of flip that switch. But off the field, it's

116
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 1: it's off the field, you know what we what we're

117
00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 1: doing the building. You know that. I'm gonna keep that

118
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: between us. But like I said, there's a lot of

119
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 1: good injury going around, Kenny, when you came in here.

120
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 1: Last year's Sakan was coming off the the knee injury

121
00:05:24,480 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 1: and there was a lot of questions once he gonna practice,

122
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,400
Speaker 1: do you see different sake one this year? I mean

123
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 1: to be honest, Towards the end of last season, Um,

124
00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 1: you know you started saying that same to six um

125
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 1: as right now, you know he's healthy, he had a

126
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: full off season to get get his body right. UM.

127
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 1: I'm excited, like like I was decited for him last year,

128
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 1: I'm even more excited this year. Last year for yourself,

129
00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 1: the way the year at sitting in did you have

130
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: to after last year? Did you have to sit down

131
00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:56,159
Speaker 1: for yourself and kind of assess maybe what went wrong

132
00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 1: and how you were going to attack this year any differently?

133
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: Or Um, did you find that figure out why things

134
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 1: didn't go the way you had? To be honest, I

135
00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,680
Speaker 1: kind of had it a little bit towards like when

136
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: you had those last few games and you know, we

137
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 1: weren't making the playoffs. You know, it was a lot

138
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: of days I thought about, you know, what what's going

139
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: wrong or what could I do better? You know, a

140
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: lot of a lot go through your mind. But once

141
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,960
Speaker 1: the season ended, I kind of flushed it. And then

142
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: once we got a whole new you know, coachal staff

143
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,200
Speaker 1: and everything, I definitely kind of just flushed it and

144
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: focused on, you know, let's start something new, let's turn

145
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: the page, and you know, let's build on now. You

146
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 1: kind of to getting more time with Daniel, and then

147
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 1: there's like the injury factor, which can always go either way.

148
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 1: So why do you think this year will be better

149
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:47,240
Speaker 1: and more productive for you than last year was? Um?

150
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,360
Speaker 1: First off, you know it's it's early, so I'm not

151
00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 1: gonna say this this year is definitely gonna be better

152
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: for me. Um, that's just my mindset. I'm very confident

153
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 1: first of all, and uh, you can really do a lot.

154
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,160
Speaker 1: Last year Yeah no, I mean, I mean I'm saying

155
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: like you don't think it will be better definitely or sorry,

156
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: I mean, like I said, that year just started for sure.

157
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: For sure I wanted you to be better. Let me

158
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: start off by saying that. Um yeah, um, last year,

159
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: you know it was last year. Like I said, I'm

160
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: just going to focus on this year and build each day. Kenny,

161
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,920
Speaker 1: can you see what you see in the offense already

162
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: in the playbook, it's going to be more action, more

163
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,240
Speaker 1: motion and more ability could get guys going and baby,

164
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 1: you know instead of just I'm lining up here and

165
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 1: to see what I'm doing. Can you send some of

166
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: that already? Oh yeah, Like I said, Kafain and Dave

167
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: did a great job of just moving guys around. And

168
00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,440
Speaker 1: you know I could be at the number three spot,

169
00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 1: number two spot, or even say can be as a receiver,

170
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 1: chef would be in the backfield. It's it's it's a

171
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 1: lot of little nuances you know that can get you know,

172
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 1: our guys open the table. Table said at the at

173
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,840
Speaker 1: the owner's meetings that he went back and watch some

174
00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 1: of your tape from when you had to like your

175
00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,040
Speaker 1: Pro Bowl year with the Lions and stuff like that.

176
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 1: Is that kind of exciting to hear that he's going

177
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 1: back and finding, you know, where you've succeeded in the

178
00:07:58,600 --> 00:08:02,520
Speaker 1: past that you can definitely, you know, definitely, you know

179
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,400
Speaker 1: Tim trying to figure out what I'm good at. You know,

180
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: that's a great sign. So you know, hopefully we get

181
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: everything done. Kenny, have you had discussions with Money? Has

182
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: he invited you to sit down and say, hey, Kenny,

183
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: what do you like to do and how can I

184
00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,840
Speaker 1: help you be the best you can be? Um? A

185
00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: little bit, but more so you know, just getting no

186
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 1: one another. You know, Um, I can't. I came and

187
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 1: building once all the coaches that we've got here and

188
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,280
Speaker 1: got settled down, and it was more so just getting

189
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 1: one getting to know one another, not talking too much ball,

190
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: you know, UM, talking about the family, talking about the transition.

191
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 1: And then once we start talking about ball and everything,

192
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: you know, we kind of you know, throw stuff off

193
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: each other and and and it really doesn't even just

194
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,440
Speaker 1: be me. He can even be talking to me chep

195
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 1: say and Daniel. So, I mean, I think that that's

196
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: what's good about everything. So everybody be on the same page.

197
00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:52,400
Speaker 1: So we could talk to a bunch of you in

198
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 1: the group, that's what you're saying, I mean, not behind clothes,

199
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 1: though they could still be in front of everybody. There's

200
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 1: really no secrets. Would you learn about him as a guy,

201
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: I'm still I'm still learning, but as right now, UM,

202
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: a cool, laid back guy. Um, and just want to

203
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: put his players in the best position. Kenny did. Buffalottle

204
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: offense was so creative under Brian dave A. Did you

205
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: either go back and look at some of that or

206
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: do you have optimism based on what he was able

207
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: to do with that personality that it can translate? Oh yeah,

208
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: I did. Um, and those those guys in Buffalo has

209
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,599
Speaker 1: some pretty good pieces and I feel like so do we.

210
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: And I think that's the most exciting part. You know, Um,

211
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 1: those guys over there, you know Dix, I mean had

212
00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of balls called you know what I mean,

213
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: So you can definitely tell, you know, he put his

214
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,079
Speaker 1: guys in the great positions to succeed. The last one

215
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 1: team is you guys are trying to win this year,

216
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 1: but you guys are in build mode for the future.

217
00:09:46,679 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 1: So as a player, how do you how do you

218
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,959
Speaker 1: approach that? Do you think that you guys can make

219
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:54,000
Speaker 1: noise this year while you still build for the long term. Uh,

220
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,120
Speaker 1: it's it's it's still early on. I mean this is

221
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: only what day two of being just on the field. Um,

222
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 1: we're still gotta you know, find find where our offense

223
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: and what our defense can be. We haven't even gotten

224
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: a training camp. Um. But as right now, like I said,

225
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 1: a lot of people out there you know, flying around,

226
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: you know and just having fun with it. I think

227
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,040
Speaker 1: that's the most important thing. People are ready to get back,

228
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:16,360
Speaker 1: you know, the work
