You know, like you said, 5 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 2: a few days in past physicality then bumped up a lot, 6 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 2: you know, nicks and bruises, but that's what you get 7 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 2: with the game, and you know you just gotta embrace it. 8 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 1: Take us through that safety room. There's some veteran guys 9 00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:26,439 Speaker 1: on this team. Obviously, Ray's been around for a while, 10 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 1: Cisco a few years in, wingerd has been around here 11 00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 1: for a while, and one of those guys kind of 12 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,599 Speaker 1: passed down to the younger safeties in the room. 13 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 2: Man, there's a lot of knowledge in that room, as 14 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,440 Speaker 2: you said, And one thing I feel like as a rookie, 15 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 2: I'm blessed to be in a room with them, honored. 16 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:47,239 Speaker 2: And one thing about the vets that they're willing to 17 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 2: funnel into you and you just ask questions that they're 18 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 2: to help and their their sources for us, And I 19 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: feel like, I don't know that you can say that 20 00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 2: a lot of places, and you know, I'm just blessed 21 00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 2: to being a room with those guys, what has. 22 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: Been the if you to pick one thing the biggest adjustment, 23 00:01:01,800 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: whether it's scheduled speed on the field, weight room, and 24 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: what's the biggest adjustment difference you've had to make from 25 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:11,039 Speaker 1: college to her. 26 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 2: I will for sure say off the field, just how 27 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 2: much availability time that you have and freedom and you know, 28 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 2: you just gotta know, like you gotta set time apart 29 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: to you know, focus on football outside of the facility 30 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: and watch film and you know, go over your playbook 31 00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 2: and just be in detail of what's going on. I said, 32 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 2: that's probably the biggest difference. 33 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,400 Speaker 1: And you gotta balance regular life as well too, right' 34 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 1: That's tough. 35 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 2: Yes, you know, being a rookie is it's crazy, you 36 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,240 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, because a lot of people don't 37 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 2: get to this opportunity. And then it's just it's a responsibility. 38 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 2: At the same time, you got to be responsible enough 39 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: to understand who you are and what do you have 40 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 2: in stake. 41 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: It feels like at least just seeing from the side 42 00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: here that you've embraced the special teams part of it, 43 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: especially that gunner role. Why have you been so successful 44 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: early in camp as a gunner? 45 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 2: I would say just really holding in on the details 46 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,639 Speaker 2: and want to learn, have the willing to learn what 47 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 2: techniques to use against different things that the return teammate 48 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 2: throw at you, and just going in again extra film 49 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 2: with the coaches, and you know, just really after I 50 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 2: do something, asking for critique and just just being a 51 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,200 Speaker 2: studio of the game, I'll say, you know, it feels like. 52 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: You're bigger than most gunners. Like you're a big, tall guy. 53 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,239 Speaker 1: So how does that help you in terms of the 54 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,440 Speaker 1: physical part of it? Maybe at the line getting away? 55 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a lot of guys out there, and normally 56 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 2: they be like smaller guys compared to me. So I 57 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: could use my arm length to get to the edges 58 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 2: very well and use my speed as well. But yeah, 59 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,960 Speaker 2: for sure, you I look across it, nine times out 60 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 2: of ten they are a little smaller than me. So 61 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 2: that's being a plus for my side. 62 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 1: All right, what else do you need to prove? The 63 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: next few weeks training camp preseason games are coming. That's uh, 64 00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,800 Speaker 1: about a week from now is the first game, I 65 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: guess the Cowboys. I mean, what else do you need 66 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 1: to put out there? 67 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,400 Speaker 2: Really just showed what I could do in a game, 68 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 2: just in the game setting, being able to focus and 69 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 2: lock in when you're tired. Just look things like that 70 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 2: and keep making plays on the field. I feel like 71 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 2: that's the biggest part of just making plays, and making 72 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,400 Speaker 2: the right plays, and being in the right spots and 73 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: making sure that you're not making a lot of mistakes 74 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 2: doing the game.
