16
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 1: Rookie Center, Tyler Beatish. Tyler, how are you? Thanks for

17
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: your time? Hey, how are you doing. I'm good and

18
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: we're doing great. And so Tyler is currently on injured reserve,

19
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 1: which is why he did not travel today Monday, slash

20
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 1: Saturday to Baltimore. Look at you nodding like I'm making

21
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 1: any kind of sense at all, Like you know what

22
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 1: the hell I'm talking about. It's an interesting week. Yeah,

23
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: it is. As we were just discussing before we went

24
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,600
Speaker 1: on here, it's an interesting year. So the Cowboys, of course,

25
00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: Mike McCarthy was kind of I'm gonna say, complaining a little,

26
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 1: whining a little about playing three games in twelve days

27
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: and now it's gonna be two games in five days,

28
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: but no games And when was the last game Thanksgiving?

29
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 1: How many years ago was that? I mean, this is

30
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 1: really ridiculous. And so the game's in Baltimore tomorrow night.

31
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 1: For players, game day is Sunday. That makes today Saturday,

32
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 1: but in real life it's Monday, which is why Tyler

33
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 1: is so nice to give us, on short notice some

34
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 1: time to visit with everyone and so everyone can get

35
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,680
Speaker 1: to know you. And so we're grateful. We appreciate it

36
00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,680
Speaker 1: very much, appreciate being on the show. I'm looking at

37
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 1: your picture in the I guess it's the media guide.

38
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: It's also in the Cowboys online thing, and the beard

39
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: is much shorter and so is your hair. But then

40
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 1: that's kind of the essence of the year. Is this

41
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 1: your natural preferred look? This is not helping those of

42
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: you listening on the radio at all, So forgive me,

43
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 1: but it's not It's not Travis Frederick like, but it's

44
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: better than Sean Lee. Okay, So is this is this

45
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:05,679
Speaker 1: your natural preferred look or is this kind of pandemic? Oh?

46
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 1: What the hell? M you know, I do. I do

47
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,080
Speaker 1: shape it up quite often during the season. Um, but

48
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,639
Speaker 1: as you said before, it's kind of a pandemic kind

49
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 1: of go around type of season. And uh, I do.

50
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 1: I do grow it out in the season though, I

51
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,320
Speaker 1: uh you know, I've always I've always done that. Um,

52
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: you know, if they're high school and through college and um,

53
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 1: just it's just it's like a field thing. It's like

54
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 1: a football kind of thing. Um but um, you know,

55
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 1: with the pandemic and everything, you know, a lot of

56
00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: people just don't go to a lot of barbershops anymore

57
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 1: during this or get dressed or there's a lot of

58
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 1: things that people aren't doing. So um. Injured reserve this year,

59
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 1: of course, was changed to accommodate fluctuating rosters because of

60
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: thank you COVID, and so when a player goes on

61
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: injured reserve, you have to miss three games and this

62
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: one tomorrow night is your third. Is that correct? That's correct?

63
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: So Hitsburg was that what it was? Yeah? At Pittsburgh,

64
00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 1: that's when I got my Injori. So can we just

65
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 1: talk about that for a minute, because you know, I've

66
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,720
Speaker 1: got this big Excel chart that I do, and I

67
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: have have it out in front of me so my

68
00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,400
Speaker 1: spotter can help me find people on it. And there

69
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: you are. You're the center. And as far as I knew,

70
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:21,840
Speaker 1: you were going to be the center forever and ever. Amen.

71
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 1: And you went through warmups and and then Christie Scales,

72
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: our sideline reporter, said, yeah, I don't think Tyler's gonna play. Yeah, yeah,

73
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: that was what'd you do? So what happened there? No?

74
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 1: I mean I just, um, you know, it came out

75
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: of warm ups and um, you know, I was just

76
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: I was doing my normal stretching and when I was

77
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: warming up, I did a couple of takeoffs and um,

78
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:44,680
Speaker 1: you know, the second one, I just you know, I

79
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: didn't feel right, and you know, I checked with the

80
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 1: trainers and you know, I wanted to go and and

81
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: they they held me off. But UM, you know it

82
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 1: was just h it was kind of like that little

83
00:04:55,760 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 1: freak thing. You know, it's just it's twenty twenty, um

84
00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: in a nutshell. But um, you know it was it

85
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 1: was disappointing. But at the same time, you know, it

86
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 1: was it was a quick turnaround, you know, UM, coming

87
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: from a mindset of you know, you're playing the game

88
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: and everything like that, and then um, you know that happens.

89
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 1: It's very unfortunate. Um. You know how much time and

90
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: ef you put into it. Um, it's one of those

91
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: things where you just gotta you know, roll with the punches.

92
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 1: And you know, I right when it happened. Um, you know,

93
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 1: I talked to the trainers and um, you know, I

94
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,800
Speaker 1: they decided I couldn't go, and UM, you know I

95
00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: kind of agreed with them because I was in you know,

96
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,479
Speaker 1: pretty good pain. Um, but uh, you know I talked

97
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: to Joe and I just was like, hey, Joe, like

98
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 1: you're going, and um you know he uh he was

99
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: just like all right, you know, and you know that's

100
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 1: what we prepare for, um, because we know how you know,

101
00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: this year is going. But in all reality, like that

102
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: is football and that's why you have Um, that's why

103
00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,840
Speaker 1: we have the depth chart we have and um, you

104
00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,560
Speaker 1: know there was no um beating questions being as Joe

105
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,040
Speaker 1: was ready and you know he played a health of

106
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:05,840
Speaker 1: the game. Um but uh yeah, that uh you know that,

107
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 1: Uh that was a freak kind of thing. And you know,

108
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 1: I hope hoping that that never happens again. Um, well,

109
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: you're not you're no stranger to injury because you're a

110
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,000
Speaker 1: football player and you guys learned to play with pain.

111
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: But I remember when when Christy told us that, and

112
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 1: we're our radio booth is pretty high up and so

113
00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 1: we're I grabbed my binoculars and I found you, and uh,

114
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: you didn't look happy. You didn't look completely pleased. And

115
00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: what I was kind of getting from your body language

116
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: was seriously right now before kickoff? Was that about Ryan? Yeah,

117
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 1: and yeah I might have cleaned it up a little bit,

118
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,760
Speaker 1: but I think you cleaned up a little bit too.

119
00:06:44,040 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: Uh No, I mean that's a that's very frustrating, you

120
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: know because um, you know, coming from uh, you know

121
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 1: playing and that was probably going to be my what

122
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: like six or seventh game playing and you know, as

123
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: you progress every week, you look to get better every

124
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,799
Speaker 1: week at least you know, like one percent, two percent

125
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: whatever it is that you can build throughout a week

126
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 1: and learn from the last game. And um, you know,

127
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 1: I thought like a lot of things were clicking and

128
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,000
Speaker 1: a lot of adjustments I was picking up on and

129
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: everything like that. And you know when that happens and

130
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,280
Speaker 1: you who don't have any control over it after because

131
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: it wasn't like a paying time it's kind of thing.

132
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,000
Speaker 1: It was. It was a muscle so, um, you know,

133
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: it's not a thing you can like put tape on

134
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: and be like all right, you can go back in. Um.

135
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 1: So it was. It was very disappointed me. And you know,

136
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: I had my moment of a you know, minute and

137
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 1: a half of frustration and uh, you know my trainers, Uh,

138
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: you know, Jim and Britt came over by me, and um,

139
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 1: they were they were just honest with me, and you know,

140
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: and they told me that, you know, you can't do

141
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: anything about it, and um, you know, I was frustrated

142
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 1: enough to you know, punch the bench a little bit

143
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: and uh and Jim he reminded me that, uh, he

144
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: didn't want me to break my wrists. So it was

145
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 1: it was one of those times where he's just like,

146
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,680
Speaker 1: you know, that's not going to help you out. And

147
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 1: and I was like, yeah, you're probably right. And the

148
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,080
Speaker 1: heat of it and and that's where you know, your

149
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 1: mentality has to switch and you got to know what

150
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 1: you can control now. And and the thing I could

151
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 1: control at the moment was how can I help out

152
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: Joe as much as possible? How can I help out

153
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: my team as much as possible? And how can we

154
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,880
Speaker 1: win this game? You know? And and I you know,

155
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 1: roll with the punches, and you know, if I could

156
00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:29,320
Speaker 1: get and you go, if I could pick up on

157
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,440
Speaker 1: stuff and check the iPad while people are in the

158
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: games and you know, talk to coach Philbin and see

159
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 1: what we're doing. Um, you know, when we were on offense,

160
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 1: I was hanging by the QBS making sure, you know,

161
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:39,600
Speaker 1: I got the call so I could help out them

162
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: out after a series and um, you know, and then

163
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:45,600
Speaker 1: just getting you know, water free. Teammates are just simple

164
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: stuff where they don't have to you know, use up

165
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 1: that energy and and even like getting the defense hyped up,

166
00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: you know, like and especially like that game itself. You know,

167
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,320
Speaker 1: it came down the wire and um, you know, unfortunately

168
00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 1: we lost the game, but you know, we played really well,

169
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: and you know how much I was a part of that. Um,

170
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: you know I thought, you know, my effort and my

171
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 1: contribution even though I was inactive, Um, you know that

172
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 1: still can affect the game. And you know, and I

173
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,319
Speaker 1: know that, And it's unfortunate how the situation happened, but uh,

174
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 1: you know that's the reality. And I had to switch that,

175
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: you know, in a minute, which is you know, not ideal,

176
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 1: but um, that's that's football though, you know, Um, it's

177
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 1: the unknowns. And unfortunately that happened. But uh, you know

178
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: after the injury, and I knew I was gonna be

179
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: better for it. You know I was going to be better,

180
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 1: Um being aware of you know what I could have

181
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: done better to prepare for that. And then if you

182
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: didn't know it already, as you have since found out, Um,

183
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 1: when you're around Brett Brown, there's not a lot of

184
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:49,680
Speaker 1: feeling sorry for yourself time that's allowed. You're very read

185
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: about that. Yeah, I've got Brett a logue time. But

186
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: people don't know him, they don't see him. So Brett,

187
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,679
Speaker 1: for those of you who don't know you, maybe you've

188
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,920
Speaker 1: seen him from a distance. Uh, you will only see

189
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,400
Speaker 1: him like before a game. Uh, running with chords, helping

190
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: players stretch out and that kind of thing. But he is,

191
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: he's in charge of rehab, right yep. So how would

192
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: you describe the Britt Brown rehab experience? Well, I remember, um,

193
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: you know, I came out of the Cleveland game. I

194
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: was in, I was in some pain. I just wanted

195
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,360
Speaker 1: to check out something I got, like a rip shot,

196
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,959
Speaker 1: you know. And it's actually a funny story because um,

197
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 1: we always joke about it now and and um, you

198
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: know I was I was really paying. You know, the

199
00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 1: game came out into wire, you know, he got a

200
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: lot of dreadline everything. And after the game and you know,

201
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 1: after we broke um like the locker room like talk.

202
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 1: After you know, I went went to over by Britain

203
00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 1: Jim and you know, the doctor was checking it out

204
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: and everything, and I was good. But it's just like

205
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 1: you know and bruised, drip or whatever and m and

206
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 1: I go over to Britt and he's just like it's

207
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: not fatal. And I'm like I looked at him. I'm

208
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,720
Speaker 1: like I'm like like what Like I'm like, okay, Like

209
00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 1: I didn't you know. He's just like he's like, You're

210
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,520
Speaker 1: gonna be fine. It's not fatal. And I'm like all right,

211
00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,680
Speaker 1: and I'm like I'm like good, you know, and I

212
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 1: walked away, and you know, it's been a laugh since

213
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: that day. And um, you know, after after this um

214
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:25,600
Speaker 1: actual injury. Um, you know, you know he didn't he

215
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: didn't say that in the moment like at Pittsburgh, but

216
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:31,079
Speaker 1: after the game, you know, I looked at him, I'm like, hey,

217
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,960
Speaker 1: at least it's not fatal, and he just we just

218
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: had a laugh. But you know, you know it's he's

219
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: I mean, he's a he's a guy that you know,

220
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: he's gonna give it to you straight. And you know,

221
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 1: I really appreciate that because you know, um, you don't

222
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: want to sugarcoat any of this and and you know

223
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: this is a very demanding sport and um, but you know,

224
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: the Brit Brown experience is uh, it's quite uh straight

225
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: and entertaining at the same time. I mean, you'd rather

226
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 1: play in the game and be out working with Britt

227
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: right Sutly you'd rather practice, Yeah, yeah, no doubt Yeah

228
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: that I've had guys telling me that he practices a

229
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 1: breeze compared to what he'll what he'll put you. We're

261
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,400
Speaker 1: come back from the game, But Britt doesn't pretty good

262
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: job of let me know ahead of time, so he'll

263
00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:04,679
Speaker 1: probably text me like after the game or um, just

264
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: because I mean it's a short week too, so it's

265
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: a really um you know, these circumstances are very odd.

266
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:14,920
Speaker 1: You don't really see them very often, but um, yeah,

267
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: so so we'll find out us soon. But um, you know,

268
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 1: definitely ready to get back on the field and go

269
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:23,760
Speaker 1: out and compete and uh, you know, play a game, Tyler,

270
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,560
Speaker 1: before you were drafted. Can we go back a little?

271
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: Are you okay to go back wherever you want? I

272
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 1: found this to be super interesting because you didn't even

273
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:38,440
Speaker 1: move to the offensive side of the ball until college. Yea,

274
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: and so in high school and if I'm correct, you

275
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: were actually recruited to play defensive tackle right to Wisconsin.

276
00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 1: I was. Yes, I was recruited as a defensive tackle

277
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:55,719
Speaker 1: and a defensive end every other place except Wisconsin. I

278
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 1: was recruited for both At Wisconsin. In my recruiting process,

279
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 1: I was recruited for offensive line and defensive line. They

280
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,439
Speaker 1: did not know where I was going to end up,

281
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,639
Speaker 1: and it was more so like the need of a spot,

282
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: like if the offensive line needed more help than the other,

283
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: because they really didn't know. So when you chose Wisconsin,

284
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: you there was a chance you were going to be

285
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: on offense. That didn't I guess to turn you from

286
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: other schools. You weren't just set on playing defense where

287
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:24,720
Speaker 1: you were comfortable. Yeah, I mean it was. Wisconsin was

288
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:26,199
Speaker 1: one of those schools that I always wanted to go

289
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:27,880
Speaker 1: to I always wanted to play for my home state,

290
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: and that was the only Division one college and I

291
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 1: really loved the coaches defense and offensive lee and it

292
00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 1: was one of those choices where you had pride in

293
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 1: playing for the school you really wanted to go to,

294
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 1: whether it was on defense or offense. And I didn't

295
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: know how technically like offensive lineman moved when I first

296
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: went like when I first went to college, like I

297
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,200
Speaker 1: didn't you know, I had no idea what a post

298
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 1: and a kick like I was like it just it

299
00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 1: didn't occur to now you got to stop and tell

300
00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 1: everybody else, you know it. It was just one of

301
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,200
Speaker 1: those times where you know, I came from a defense

302
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 1: school Ambers, Wisconsin, and you know, we were running. We

303
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,160
Speaker 1: were an option running team, and you know, you don't

304
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 1: really pick up on like the college old offensive line

305
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,399
Speaker 1: fundamentals as much as maybe like a you know, a

306
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 1: D one school does or like have that experience. And

307
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,719
Speaker 1: no doubt I was doing you know, I was probably

308
00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:31,280
Speaker 1: beating more people athletically on offense than technically sound fundamentally.

309
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 1: But um, but no, I I talked to coach. I

310
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 1: remember I tied to coach Chris before I committed, I

311
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: verbally committed there, and I was just like, you know,

312
00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:41,719
Speaker 1: do I have a you know, a shot at defense?

313
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,359
Speaker 1: And He's just like, yeah, you do. But also like

314
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,960
Speaker 1: we got to consider like where the team needs are

315
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: and like I understood that and I knew there was

316
00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 1: a chance. And I remember when I went in the

317
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,479
Speaker 1: first day, I had knee races in my locker and

318
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,159
Speaker 1: I had offensive line cleats and I was just like,

319
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,239
Speaker 1: all right, let's go. I had a number sixty one

320
00:19:57,320 --> 00:19:59,199
Speaker 1: Jersey and I was like, all right, let's do it,

321
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:03,840
Speaker 1: you know. And I remember the foundation of old Lineman

322
00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,959
Speaker 1: before me, and it was a great group. And I

323
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 1: was really blessed the people that I had in front

324
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: of me. And you know, like I think six of

325
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 1: them are in the NFL right now, you know. So

326
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:18,439
Speaker 1: it was a it was a very it was a

327
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 1: very good chance for success, and I had a great

328
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 1: office line coach and it worked out very well. Now

329
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 1: what other places recruited you on defense? Only? Iowa, Minnesota

330
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: and then I had like you know, North Dakota State,

331
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:42,959
Speaker 1: South Dakota State, Illinois State, Northern Illinois, and then Western

332
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 1: Illinois and Southern Illinois. So was it the Wisconsin coaching

333
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 1: staff that said, you know, we're looking at you at

334
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:52,159
Speaker 1: offense also? And was that the first time that that

335
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,679
Speaker 1: had come up? Yeah, yeah, and it happened during the

336
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 1: recruiting process. And what was your first reaction to that?

337
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 1: It was funny because I didn't I didn't really know

338
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:04,600
Speaker 1: how to take it because it was my first interaction

339
00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,160
Speaker 1: with and I'm like, I'm like, okay, you know, like

340
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,199
Speaker 1: like I'm not good enough to play defense for you?

341
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: Is that what you I mean? Was that party you're thinking? Well,

342
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 1: it was just it was interesting because no one really

343
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: mentioned it. And I'm like, okay, well in what position?

344
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:19,879
Speaker 1: You know, because a lot of it there's a height

345
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: difference too, Like I'm coming from a D five school,

346
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,439
Speaker 1: so I'm not I'm not. I don't even I'm not

347
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,760
Speaker 1: even thinking like a center like I'm at first, I'm like, okay, guard,

348
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 1: like like center. I never stabbed the ball ever in

349
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,360
Speaker 1: my life, like never. And and I remember when when

350
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 1: coach Rudolph told me, like, you know, you're gonna work

351
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:36,800
Speaker 1: at center and guard and I'm like okay. And I

352
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,960
Speaker 1: remember because one of my teammates in high school he

353
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 1: actually was teammates with me in college at Garrett Crocchik.

354
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: I would start snapping a football and right after I

355
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 1: verbally committed, so like I was just getting the snaps down,

356
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: like I had. I had no idea, you know at first.

357
00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,879
Speaker 1: But um, you know, this is only technically like my

358
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:59,600
Speaker 1: fifth year playing the position, and it's it's actually pretty

359
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,600
Speaker 1: unique come from for how much like you progress after

360
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 1: you know, you do like thousands of snaps you know, so,

361
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 1: but I mean that's just amazing. You hadn't snapped a

362
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:12,639
Speaker 1: ball and then you end up getting drafted to play

363
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,600
Speaker 1: in this position. I mean, it's just I think it

364
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: says a lot about your natural ability to play the

365
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: game and athletic ability. How much though, of playing center,

366
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 1: How how much easier was that transition because you knew

367
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 1: how to play on the other side of the ball.

368
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:29,359
Speaker 1: I think it was huge. It was actually funny my

369
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: first year I've read shirt at Wisconsin and um, I

370
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,360
Speaker 1: remember not to give myself a pat on the back,

371
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 1: but like you want to, you know, when you if

372
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: you're not going to do it, who's going to do it?

373
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 1: You know? But I remember my first year a lot

374
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 1: of the starting offensive lineman wanted me to play defense

375
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 1: like as a look, and I remember like when when

376
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,199
Speaker 1: the old line is like doing like individual drills and

377
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: everything like that, I would be the guy that would

378
00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:58,200
Speaker 1: give him a pass rush move or like because you yeah,

379
00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 1: right right. And then whenever we play like read front

380
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:04,480
Speaker 1: teams or you know, penetrate teams, like I know exactly,

381
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 1: you know what they're going after and everything. Then I

382
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,159
Speaker 1: think it helped me out a lot because it's like

383
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,360
Speaker 1: it's almost like what do you think I would do?

384
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:13,199
Speaker 1: Like what would I do in that position? And I

385
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 1: think college is more closer to that than the NFL.

386
00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: But at the time, through my college experience, like I

387
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 1: was like what would I do? You know if I

388
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: saw this happening and this is how he set Like

389
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 1: what would I do from that? You know, like how

390
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 1: would I win? And I took that in consideration. I

391
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,960
Speaker 1: remember my first year going of my second was a

392
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,920
Speaker 1: huge transition because it was just literally learning, like you

393
00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: just you just sit in the room and like you

394
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:37,800
Speaker 1: watch film and you're like, oh, I know what he's doing.

395
00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 1: I know what he's reading. If he's reading this outside shoulder,

396
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,840
Speaker 1: like this is gonna happen if he's reading his insight shoulder,

397
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,120
Speaker 1: this is gonna happen, you know. So it's like just

398
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 1: fundamentally being stronger and stronger. I think it helped me

399
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,400
Speaker 1: progress even more and being at a center position where

400
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,439
Speaker 1: it's like if you get that one block, like the

401
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: play is gonna go, you know. And you know, I

402
00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 1: thought it helped out tremendously. They read shirt to you

403
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,600
Speaker 1: as a fresh Was that hand in glove with this

404
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: with this position change or do you think that would

405
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 1: happened anyway? Um, I think it. I think it could

406
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: have been a position change. But I was almost ready

407
00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 1: to I almost burned my red shirt against Iowa. I

408
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:16,920
Speaker 1: remember we were down on injuries, and I remember I

409
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 1: actually went to a Thursday practice like starting that week,

410
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:25,360
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, I know at the time,

411
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,000
Speaker 1: my online coach was like certain I was gonna start.

412
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:31,960
Speaker 1: And then I remember one of my teammates it was

413
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,720
Speaker 1: like I think, you know, I think it was Michael Dieter,

414
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,719
Speaker 1: and Michael Deater was like, I think Datson can go,

415
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 1: and it was kind of like up to Datson and

416
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,959
Speaker 1: it and he was just like, yeah, I can go,

417
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 1: and we ended up winning that game. Um, I think

418
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:46,680
Speaker 1: it's like thirteen to seven. But you know he was hurting,

419
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:48,119
Speaker 1: but he you know, he fought to the pain and

420
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: he saved my red shirt. Um but uh, now that

421
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:54,159
Speaker 1: year was I was pretty close to burning it twice,

422
00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:57,520
Speaker 1: but um, you know we ended up coming back from injuries.

423
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 1: But it's kind of it's kind of interesting how it

424
00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 1: all panned out. But I gotta say, the beard. I'm

425
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:07,880
Speaker 1: thinking about Wisconsin, the Cowboys, the Beard. I mean, it's

426
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: a lot of Travis Frederick vibes is what you're giving off.

427
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: Did you did you watch? And also kind I add

428
00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 1: one other thing, Yeah, super smart guys, smart guys. Were

429
00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:21,199
Speaker 1: you familiar or did you watch you know, I know

430
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: he wasn't there when you were there, but film of him,

431
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: you know at Wisconsin or pay attention to him when

432
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:27,680
Speaker 1: he was playing for the Cowboys when you were still

433
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 1: in college. Yeah. Actually we would actually watch a lot

434
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 1: of their outside zone films and and some gap schemes too.

435
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: But I mean at Wisconsin we were incorporating like a

436
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: lot of outside zone and um, we had actual like

437
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 1: film and I would watch Travis all the time, like

438
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 1: it was. It was it was literally like if he

439
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 1: wanted to look at how your reach block looked. Okay,

440
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 1: you know, you just go on your iPad, just like

441
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: how we have one now, and you just go to

442
00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,640
Speaker 1: the Dallas film and you just you'd you'd watch his

443
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: his reach block, his footwork, and you know, you just

444
00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: try to get as little close as you can to

445
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:06,840
Speaker 1: his fundamentals. And it was crazy how it changed my game.

446
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:08,879
Speaker 1: And you know, I talked to him a couple of

447
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: times here what happened in Dallas, And I'm like, and

448
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:12,399
Speaker 1: I told him, like, I'm still learning from you, like

449
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,680
Speaker 1: even like you're not in the game anymore, like I'm

450
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 1: you know, I'm still learning from him. And he's been

451
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,359
Speaker 1: a he's reached out a lot of times, and you know,

452
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 1: he's been he's been there to support me and you know,

453
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,280
Speaker 1: if I need anything, And you know, I really appreciate

454
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,400
Speaker 1: that because you know were you know, we haven't really

455
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 1: been face to face a lot of times. But I

456
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 1: didn't meet him one time. It was actually my freshman

457
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: year in college when we went to the Cotton Bowl.

458

Speaker 1: middle Like Cowboys hour Brad Sham and Danny Surak and

481
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,959
Speaker 1: our special guest, Cowboy rookie center Tyler Battish, who's stint

482
00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:07,440
Speaker 1: on the injured Reserve can end after tomorrow night's game

483
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:09,720
Speaker 1: in Baltimore. We were just during the break talking about

484
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 1: the IR rules and why why would he But Tyler

485
00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: was not aware of the fact that this year, because

486
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 1: of the COVID situation, injured reserve was a minimum of

487
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 1: three games instead of six which it used to be.

488
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 1: So see, see what a bargain you got exactly. But

489
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:36,640
Speaker 1: that the other thing that people don't realize is you

490
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: can't practice when you're on IR. You can go out

491
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 1: in the field and work with the conditioning staff, but

492
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,400
Speaker 1: you can't get in practice. And then the other stuff

493
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 1: that you were asking him, Danny, I thought was really

494
00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,960
Speaker 1: interesting too. When you're on IR this year, you can't

495
00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 1: be on the field during games. So you were for

496
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:55,320
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh because you weren't on IR, you got hurt right

497
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,320
Speaker 1: before the game started. But then once you went on

498
00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: the IR, you're not allowed to be on the field,

499
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 1: which is what are used to seeing from players who

500
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,400
Speaker 1: aren't able to play on the iPad. And you know,

501
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:07,760
Speaker 1: talking with their teammates about things that they see. So

502
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 1: you weren't even able to do that for the last

503
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,479
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, right exactly. And it's like if if

504
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 1: if I wasn't an I R and it was just

505
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 1: for like one week or two weeks, you know, then

506
00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 1: I would be able to. But it's just it's very

507
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,960
Speaker 1: different with like the COVID and you know, the NFL

508
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 1: is having like different rules and it's like almost like

509
00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 1: it's week to weeks, something's something like different or something's

510
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: changing or you know, um, even like with the numbers

511
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:34,680
Speaker 1: of how many people can go to the game, if

512
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,680
Speaker 1: it was like you know what if it was like

513
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,880
Speaker 1: seventy it went down to sixty two or I think

514
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 1: they're just making it just as safe as possible. But

515
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,560
Speaker 1: it's also like, you know, it's not the most pleasing

516
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 1: way to watch the game on TV, but um, you know,

517
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,840
Speaker 1: you just do what you can, and UM, you know

518
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 1: you just at the end day, you got to be

519
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 1: thankful and you know that you're gonna be better from it.

520
00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 1: What's your demeanor when you were watching the last couple

521
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:01,719
Speaker 1: of games on TV? You know I was following the Scriptum,

522
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: so you know we have, you know, we have a

523
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: certain like sheet of plays and everything like that, and

524
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 1: I'm like looking at formations and I'm like, I'm not

525
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,200
Speaker 1: like guessing what they're doing, but I'm just like, Okay,

526
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,960
Speaker 1: how are they lining up to that, you know? Or

527
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,440
Speaker 1: what do they do when the replay comes on or

528
00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: all that stuff. And you know, I can't text anyone,

529
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 1: but I'm like, I'm you're you're kind of like a fan,

530
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,960
Speaker 1: you know, and you know, it's a different perspective. And

531
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 1: as much as that as you know, I had the

532
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: last two weeks, it's you know, it just it's it's

533
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: that hungry. It's like I get hungry just to come back,

534
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 1: you know. And I'm like, you know, you just love

535
00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 1: it that much more so and you have more appreciation

536
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:41,080
Speaker 1: when you come back, and um, you know, I definitely

537
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: feel it. You know. After they went against the Vikings,

538
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:44,600
Speaker 1: I was just like I wanted to be in the

539
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 1: locker room with them, you know, I wanted to be

540
00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,280
Speaker 1: able to celebrate with them, and you know, because they're

541
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 1: my brothers and my teammates and um. But when they

542
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:52,959
Speaker 1: came back, you know, I let them know, like you know,

543
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:56,000
Speaker 1: how much you know they how good of a job

544
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,280
Speaker 1: they did, and um, to pull that off and to

545
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: have a great comeback like that. That's the following the script.

546
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: That's one of the first twenty five plays or so,

547
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 1: isn't it. Yeah, you know after that, you kind of

548
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 1: you know, well, what did you do after that? I mean,

549
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,600
Speaker 1: what were you able to absorb? Well, I mean you

550
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,520
Speaker 1: get to watch a defense, which you know, you know,

551
00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:17,280
Speaker 1: normally you don't really watch them when you're playing the game. So, um,

552
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 1: you know, I remember the last two games, you know,

553
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 1: you watched like the full game, you watch offense, defense,

554
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,799
Speaker 1: special teams, and you know you don't you're not really

555
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 1: looking through an iPad anymore during the game, you're not

556
00:34:28,040 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 1: getting water, you're not talking to your teammates anymore. So

557
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 1: you get to you get the full full entertainment on

558
00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 1: TV A little different perspective. But no, it's a it

559
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 1: was It was fun. I mean, I mean I still

560
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: got to watch my teammates, not like I couldn't watch

561
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 1: the game or anything like that. So you know, I

562
00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:45,040
Speaker 1: had a good time. And you know, some of the

563
00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 1: other practice squad players that were not traveling, you know,

564
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,879
Speaker 1: I made sure I could, you know, watch it with them.

565
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 1: And all that stuff. So and you had you probably

566
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,640
Speaker 1: had just as you saying that, you know, what's upon

567
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 1: a time if you couldn't travel because of an injury

568
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 1: and there were three or four guys who are like that,

569
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 1: you could just go to somebody's house and watch it,

570
00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 1: and but you probably have to go through protocols to

571
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 1: be able to make sure that you can be with

572
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:14,479
Speaker 1: three other guys who are traveling right right, and it's

573
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:16,879
Speaker 1: you know, you can't have more than I think it's

574
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:20,720
Speaker 1: like three people, you know, and uh an then closed

575
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:24,480
Speaker 1: area or you know, or if you're at a restaurant,

576
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,360
Speaker 1: you can't have more than three or you know, stuff

577
00:35:27,400 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: like that. So I just stay away from it, you know,

578
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 1: because it's like, you know, all these different you know

579
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,160
Speaker 1: ins and outs that they're doing, so um, you know,

580
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:37,319
Speaker 1: I just I know, it's kind of nice to just

581
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:40,520
Speaker 1: watch the game though, and just you know, sometimes when

582
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 1: you buy yourself or you're with one other teammate, you know,

583
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 1: you could really like talk through it all, and and

584
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:46,960
Speaker 1: it was It's it's kind of funny because I actually

585
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:49,399
Speaker 1: went back and replayed it if I if I didn't

586
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,000
Speaker 1: get it, you know, and I could say like okay,

587
00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: like what worked here, or how's the double team there

588
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,719
Speaker 1: or whatever? But um, you know it's different when you

589
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,680
Speaker 1: watching the game. It's just you know, you're not used

590
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 1: to it. Now, let me ask you this. When you

591
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:07,440
Speaker 1: went out Zach Zack Martin was playing guard while you

592
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:11,799
Speaker 1: were on IR, he became the tackle, right and now

593
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:15,440
Speaker 1: he's on IR and with as few that happened today,

594
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:17,840
Speaker 1: by the way, for people who didn't know, although it

595
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:22,000
Speaker 1: was the handwriting was probably on the wall. And um,

596
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 1: and I wonder how I'm asking you to imagine. There's

597
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:33,000
Speaker 1: no way to know this, but um, for instances, as

598
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,439
Speaker 1: I said you, you could see you growing week by week,

599
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 1: you just see you getting better. How much of that

600
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,000
Speaker 1: had to do with heaven? Zach Martin next to you?

601
00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 1: I mean, I had a great impact of like a

602
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,160
Speaker 1: veteran with you and you know, honestly answering every question

603
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:53,959
Speaker 1: you have. You know, it's uh, um, it's it's nice

604
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,840
Speaker 1: to be able to talk to him like, you know,

605
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 1: they've played, you know how many times if he has

606
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:02,720
Speaker 1: he played the Philadelphia Eagles or the New York Giants

607
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,879
Speaker 1: or the Washington Redskins in to get feedback from him

608
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:09,560
Speaker 1: being like so reliable and then you know, like having

609
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,319
Speaker 1: all that information and being out with him. You know,

610
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,759
Speaker 1: he because he didn't try with the Washington the first time,

611
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 1: but you know he was still helping as much as

612
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: he could that week and just having him there, you know,

613
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 1: he's definitely a big presence. But obviously playing with him

614
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 1: is um a bigger impact obviously than him on the sidelines.

615
00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,440
Speaker 1: But um, you know he's a he's a great help. Um,

616
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 1: he's a great player. You know, playing with him is amazing,

617
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 1: and UM, you know I appreciate him a lot, um,

618
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:36,719
Speaker 1: just from a you know, a leader standpoint and a

619
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 1: player standpoint. Um, But yeah, he's a he has a

620
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,120
Speaker 1: great impact on the game. Um, whether he's out or

621
00:37:43,120 --> 00:37:46,560
Speaker 1: whether he's in. Obviously you'd rather have him in. But um,

622
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,439
Speaker 1: you know he uh he's helped me a lot, and

623
00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 1: uh you know, I'll always always appreciate him. And uh

624
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,839
Speaker 1: you know he's a he's a really good friend too. Yeah. Well,

625
00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: when he does his Hall of Fame induction the Hills,

626
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 1: hell invite you and but believe me, trust me, it's

627
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,200
Speaker 1: fun to do. You'll enjoy it. Oh yeah, on ir

628
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,839
Speaker 1: because the other players that we've had on the show

629
00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 1: who are on IR were more long term injuries, like

630
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 1: Blake Jarwin who was on here. Um, but for you,

631
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:17,960
Speaker 1: since you're expecting to be able to go back and play,

632
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 1: how involved are you able to be in these last

633
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: couple of weeks with the COVID protocols in terms of

634
00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 1: meetings and you know, talking with coaches and players. How

635
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,160
Speaker 1: how active and involved have you been able to be

636
00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: while on IR? Well? I try to be most involved

637
00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,480
Speaker 1: as I apps as I can be. I mean, obviously

638
00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:38,799
Speaker 1: I can't practice, and honestly that's about it. Um. You know,

639
00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:42,160
Speaker 1: I I'm lifting a little bit more than usual, um,

640
00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,120
Speaker 1: just to get my strength back and everything like that.

641
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,000
Speaker 1: But um, you know, I'm still in meetings, I'm still

642
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:50,799
Speaker 1: with the team, and it's just it's literally like you know,

643
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 1: sometimes I get done with doing I like rehab, traink

644
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 1: during practice, and I'll go watch practice and you know,

645
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 1: I'll stand right next to the guys and be like

646
00:38:57,600 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 1: all right, like like what happened here? Like you know,

647
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:02,880
Speaker 1: if they have any questions about anything or you know,

648
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,879
Speaker 1: I'm trying to help them as much as possible. But um, yeah,

649
00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 1: other than that practicing, that's about it. Um. But um,

650
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 1: I'd say I'm pretty involved. Touching back real quick to

651
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,680
Speaker 1: Zach Martin going on, IR, I mean, this offensive line

652
00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:18,719
Speaker 1: has dealt with their fair share of injuries, I think,

653
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 1: to say the least this year. How as a position group,

654
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:27,800
Speaker 1: are you all staying positive and staying focused and confident

655
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:30,440
Speaker 1: in your abilities when you guys are having to change

656
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: your combinations weekly. I think I think we're doing a

657
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 1: good job. You know, I think everyone's confident and everyone's

658
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 1: had experience. So it's like, you know, everyone in that

659
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 1: room has been playing a lot in a lot of football. Um,

660
00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,680
Speaker 1: you know, we we have we have some rookies, we

661
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 1: have the first years, some second years, veterans, everything you have.

662
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 1: You have a whole combination. But um, for how much

663
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:58,480
Speaker 1: we practice and our rotations are very good during practice,

664
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,960
Speaker 1: so we definitely have a good feel for um who

665
00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:03,360
Speaker 1: were playing next to and everything like that. And you know,

666
00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 1: I'm really proud of how much we're responding and how

667
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,440
Speaker 1: well we're doing with that. And um, you know, honestly,

668
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 1: throughout the last you know, lately, we're we've been really

669
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: growing and you can definitely can see that. So um,

670
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,960
Speaker 1: I chuckled to myself when Danny and I both uh

671
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:26,400
Speaker 1: ask you stuff about Travis because um, you started getting

672
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,560
Speaker 1: from day one. You might have got it during the

673
00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 1: scouting process for all I know, Wisconsin Center, smart guy,

674
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: um team captain and all. And I wonder if at

675
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:44,120
Speaker 1: any time do you have you maybe even within the

676
00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:49,000
Speaker 1: last hour, Tyler, for all I know, thought to yourself, Okay,

677
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 1: that's enough of Travis Frederick. Really, I mean, I'm Tyler beoutish.

678
00:40:52,120 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 1: We don't need to talk about Travis Frederick anymore. I mean,

679
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:58,640
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's it's cool that you know

680
00:40:58,719 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 1: you can be related to someone of that like caliber.

681
00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 1: But at the same time, I mean, I know, you know,

682
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:07,000
Speaker 1: I'm know I'm telling everyone I shouldn't. I know, he's

683
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: traps Frederick, and um, that's a good thing for you

684
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,480
Speaker 1: to know, you know. I mean, it's just you know,

685
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 1: you get reminded. But you know, I don't know, I

686
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 1: mean something. I mean, it is what it is. I mean,

687
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: you know we have a similar background, and um, that's approachable.

688
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:24,840
Speaker 1: I mean, you know that's cool. But um, at the

689
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:26,800
Speaker 1: same time, yeah, I mean, just like you said before,

690
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 1: I mean I'm not saying like enough is enough or

691
00:41:29,719 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 1: anything like that, but I mean, you know, we have

692
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,839
Speaker 1: some similarities and some traits more. I mean, yeah, we're

693
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,759
Speaker 1: good from us all right. Um, so before we take

694
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:42,959
Speaker 1: our next break. UM, such a screwy year. You didn't

695
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: even have a preseason to get your feet wet and

696
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:47,319
Speaker 1: get a little taste of the speed of the game

697
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,879
Speaker 1: and that kind of thing. How do you think you

698
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: have improved as a football player from the start of

699
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 1: the season. I think it's like you just take it

700
00:41:57,239 --> 00:42:00,879
Speaker 1: like game by game. And UM, I remember the first game,

701
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 1: like I was actually like a backup tight end. Um.

702
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:05,840
Speaker 1: You know, we had a goal line package and everything

703
00:42:05,840 --> 00:42:08,320
Speaker 1: like that. You know, that's how I started off this season.

704
00:42:08,840 --> 00:42:12,280
Speaker 1: And UM, you know, so I actually got in um

705
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:15,479
Speaker 1: that game and I was on you know, field goal unit,

706
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,440
Speaker 1: you know, the first of that. UM. But then you

707
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:20,040
Speaker 1: just you just pick up on some stuff. I mean

708
00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 1: I remember my first time going out for Pat and

709
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:25,040
Speaker 1: the last time I went out for Pat that game

710
00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 1: it was different. You know. You just you just keep

711
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,600
Speaker 1: learning during the game, and UM, that's how you build confidence.

712
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:31,719
Speaker 1: And you got to be adaptable by and then and

713
00:42:31,840 --> 00:42:35,160
Speaker 1: this game is so it's so unique that you have

714
00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,840
Speaker 1: to be able to be able to still be approached.

715
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,480
Speaker 1: You have to be a be able to approach it

716
00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 1: in a way where you can keep getting better. And

717
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:48,440
Speaker 1: how I always learned is you have to stay coachable.

718
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 1: You got to be able to find a way to

719
00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 1: stay coachable, and you got to be able to be

720
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,239
Speaker 1: able to change preparations each week. You got to be

721
00:42:55,239 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 1: able to adjust to certain looks, and you got to

722
00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,960
Speaker 1: let your ego aside. You know, one play after another,

723
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:03,879
Speaker 1: after that play, it's it's done. It's over. It doesn't

724
00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,959
Speaker 1: matter anymore. Like the situation is a situation. It can't

725
00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 1: be changed. You know, obviously there's challenges in football, but

726
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 1: but that's it, like, and that's how you got to

727
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:14,560
Speaker 1: take the game. And and that's even day to day,

728
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:17,080
Speaker 1: whether you have a bad if you maybe you had

729
00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:19,320
Speaker 1: a mistake in practice, like you gotta be able to adjust.

730
00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,160
Speaker 1: And that's and honestly that's how you you get looked at,

731
00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,480
Speaker 1: how much you respond and coming from being a rookie,

732
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 1: like during camp and training camp, it was all about

733
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 1: getting better every day. And from the first day to

734
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:33,640
Speaker 1: the last day. Do I look back and say, man

735
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:35,759
Speaker 1: I had a terrible first day, It's it's like, how

736
00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,600
Speaker 1: like how much you've grown. You know, you gotta stay positive.

737
00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: You gotta stay like ahead of yourself of what can

738
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,680
Speaker 1: I build for tomorrow, like where I could where what

739
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:48,200
Speaker 1: can I be able to do tomorrow? And you know

740
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:50,840
Speaker 1: it's not always like looking forward, but it's also being president.

741
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:52,720
Speaker 1: You know, you gotta be able to be president practice,

742
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:54,360
Speaker 1: you gotta be able to be president in the meetings

743
00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:58,040
Speaker 1: and just keep going forth with your schedule. But don't

744
00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,200
Speaker 1: get too ahead of yourself. You know. It's like the

745
00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,880
Speaker 1: first game, I was so anti so like, you know,

746
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:04,319
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the week and I'm like, we're

747
00:44:04,360 --> 00:44:06,919
Speaker 1: going to LA and all this stuff, and now it's

748
00:44:06,920 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 1: like it's Tuesday. Yeah there, you know, relax, yeah, you know.

749
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:13,960
Speaker 1: And and by the way, just so you know, and

750
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:15,880
Speaker 1: I think you, I think you know this, but you

751
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:19,080
Speaker 1: haven't been to LA yet. You went to you went there,

752
00:44:19,120 --> 00:44:22,319
Speaker 1: you played in an empty building. You haven't really been

753
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:25,760
Speaker 1: to LA yet. That was that was a very interesting

754
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:29,359
Speaker 1: thing to playing with no fans, and that is that

755
00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:31,000
Speaker 1: is something else. All right. We're going to talk a

756
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 1: little bit more about that and more when we come

757
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,520

774
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:33,520
Speaker 1: doing a great job on your first Cowboys Hour. I

775
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 1: appreciate it. I have to ask you a quick question

776
00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:42,399
Speaker 1: before we get wherever this leads to about now. I'm

777
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:47,640
Speaker 1: intrigued now now about this upcoming game. It's the time

778
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,640
Speaker 1: of the year for my cause, my cleats around the league,

779
00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:55,080
Speaker 1: and I'm curious what your cause that your cleats were

780
00:48:55,120 --> 00:49:00,759
Speaker 1: designed for and why you chose that foundation. So I

781
00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:05,200
Speaker 1: chose breast cancer awareness, and then I chose esophagal cancer

782
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:12,480
Speaker 1: Awareness and the breast cancer awareness. UM my first my

783
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,200
Speaker 1: mom's first cousin, which would be my second. And but

784
00:49:15,320 --> 00:49:19,279
Speaker 1: she was like an anthemy basically, and um she had

785
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:23,280
Speaker 1: it and you know how much she like loved life,

786
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 1: um itself and for who she was as a person,

787
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:31,719
Speaker 1: and um it was it was very impactful to me.

788
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:37,479
Speaker 1: Um she passed away. UM, but you know, just the

789
00:49:37,719 --> 00:49:41,360
Speaker 1: situation itself, and how many times you you hear you know,

790
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:46,800
Speaker 1: breast cancer awareness comes up and it's it's a common thing, unfortunately,

791
00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:51,080
Speaker 1: and UM, you know, I respect for all the women

792
00:49:51,160 --> 00:49:55,040
Speaker 1: fighting um it and uh that was just a very

793
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:59,279
Speaker 1: impactful thing for me and my family. UM and it's

794
00:49:59,440 --> 00:50:02,000
Speaker 1: it's unf worshnate. But at the same time, you know,

795
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:05,000
Speaker 1: I want, I want to raise awareness and um, you know,

796
00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:08,919
Speaker 1: continue to fight. And I remember even going back into

797
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 1: high school and I always wear pink um to support

798
00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:16,600
Speaker 1: UM breastcanc awareness and everything like that and UM, and

799
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 1: then I had esophagal cancer awareness that my grandpa currently

800
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:25,719
Speaker 1: has UM, so we're continuing to fight there too. UM

801
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,520
Speaker 1: and he's doing well. UM, he's still doing like treatments

802
00:50:28,520 --> 00:50:31,520
Speaker 1: and everything like that. UM. But yeah, those were my

803
00:50:31,600 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 1: two and you know, it's just it was kind of

804
00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 1: more still the respect for my family, UM, and those

805
00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:41,120
Speaker 1: are the you know, my family's very important to me. UM.

806
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:46,120
Speaker 1: I'm a very family oriented guy and UM. Yeah, so

807
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,800
Speaker 1: you know, I'm supporting you know, my basically my aunt

808
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:52,359
Speaker 1: that passed away and my grandpa that's still fighting and UM,

809
00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:54,279
Speaker 1: you know, we're gonna be with him in that fight.

810
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 1: And I just wanted to make sure that they know that.

811
00:50:56,760 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 1: And UM in spirit um with my aunt. So that's wonderful.

812
00:51:01,480 --> 00:51:04,240
Speaker 1: And for those that don't know, the cleats are auctioned

813
00:51:04,239 --> 00:51:07,239
Speaker 1: off and then the money goes towards the foundation that

814
00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:10,759
Speaker 1: the cleats were designed to support. So one of them

815
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 1: nasty side effects of this unusual year, this virus is

816
00:51:20,680 --> 00:51:23,560
Speaker 1: clamping down on travel. People can't just go wherever they

817
00:51:23,560 --> 00:51:25,839
Speaker 1: want to go, whenever they want. And it sounds like

818
00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:29,480
Speaker 1: this would be the longest time that you have probably

819
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:34,160
Speaker 1: been this far away from a family that clearly would

820
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 1: would love to be able to come watch you all

821
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,799
Speaker 1: the time if possible. Has it been harder on you

822
00:51:41,080 --> 00:51:47,480
Speaker 1: or on them? I would you know, I would say, Um,

823
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:49,640
Speaker 1: at first, it was you know, when you when you

824
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 1: go to a brand new environment, you're very you're very

825
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:56,160
Speaker 1: open to like finding out just how everything works. So

826
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,840
Speaker 1: like you're very distracted, you're very um, you're very occupied.

827
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:04,239
Speaker 1: And UM, I would say, I think at first I

828
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:07,600
Speaker 1: wasn't very you know, impacted by it, because like you

829
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 1: you know, you you build new friends, you you know,

830
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:13,799
Speaker 1: you you onto a new team, the excitement of opportunity,

831
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:18,080
Speaker 1: and but I remember, um, you know, just leaving home

832
00:52:18,440 --> 00:52:21,560
Speaker 1: how emotional it was because it was just that next

833
00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:25,560
Speaker 1: chapter in your life that was so driven by so

834
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:28,600
Speaker 1: many goals and everything like that. And um, you know,

835
00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 1: I you know, I saw my my mom and my

836
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:33,640
Speaker 1: dad and when I left, you know, there's definitely tears

837
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:35,400
Speaker 1: in their eyes, and you know it's not off of

838
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:39,520
Speaker 1: my mom cries so UM, but I would say it's

839
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,040
Speaker 1: it's on both um really and um, you know I

840
00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:44,759
Speaker 1: make sure to FaceTime, you know, as much as I

841
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:49,480
Speaker 1: can and everything like that. But um, you know, I

842
00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 1: haven't seen my mom and dad since July. You know,

843
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:54,719
Speaker 1: but I've seen my brother a couple of times. He's

844
00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:58,759
Speaker 1: come down, um to some games. Um, but otherwise, you know,

845
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:02,840
Speaker 1: it's been it's been an interesting year. Um. But no,

846
00:53:03,000 --> 00:53:06,920
Speaker 1: I make sure my family's doing well and I call them,

847
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:10,760
Speaker 1: but it's uh, it's easier when you're distracted. But also

848
00:53:11,360 --> 00:53:13,200
Speaker 1: you know, I'm not in their shoes either, so I

849
00:53:13,560 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 1: know when they text me, they they they want to

850
00:53:17,239 --> 00:53:20,279
Speaker 1: talk and catch up and everything, and um, I make

851
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:22,279
Speaker 1: sure to have time for them. I would tell you

852
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:24,880
Speaker 1: as a speaking as a dad, I would vote for

853
00:53:24,920 --> 00:53:27,239
Speaker 1: it being harder on your parents. But that's just me.

854
00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:31,960
Speaker 1: You know, everybody's perspective is is different. Um gosh, I

855
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:36,759
Speaker 1: can't even imagine what Thanksgiving was like and what you

856
00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:39,719
Speaker 1: imagine Christmas will be like. Yeah, you know, not being

857
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,400
Speaker 1: not being home or be able to see them so normally,

858
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 1: like every year I'm able to see them at the

859
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 1: game for the Thanksgiving week or the Christmas at the

860
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:51,800
Speaker 1: bowl game or whatever it is. Um back in college.

861
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:55,880
Speaker 1: But um, with this twenty twenty pandemic, it's you know,

862
00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:58,040
Speaker 1: we can't. We couldn't leave on bye week, you know,

863
00:53:58,120 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 1: and normally you have a bye weekn you ever, you

864
00:53:59,680 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 1: always here like to go back home and all this stuff,

865
00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:04,880
Speaker 1: and you know, we couldn't leave, and um, just with

866
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:07,600
Speaker 1: the protocols, and you know, I think it was a

867
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:10,640
Speaker 1: lot harder on them. But um, at the same time,

868
00:54:10,680 --> 00:54:15,120
Speaker 1: I think it's one of those things where you gotta

869
00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,040
Speaker 1: be able to do what you can do and can

870
00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:20,560
Speaker 1: like what you can do, what you control or whatever,

871
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:22,719
Speaker 1: and you just kind of roll with the punches and

872
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 1: you know, this life is, uh, it's difficult right now,

873
00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:26,680
Speaker 1: but at the same time, you got to make the

874
00:54:26,680 --> 00:54:28,920
Speaker 1: most out of it, and uh, you know, stay thankful

875
00:54:28,920 --> 00:54:31,960
Speaker 1: that everyone's okay and you get you have FaceTime to

876
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,319
Speaker 1: be able to be fortunate for that, um and to

877
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:36,279
Speaker 1: see them and everything like that. But um, you know,

878
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,759
Speaker 1: I definitely, uh definitely have a good time whenever I

879
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:40,719
Speaker 1: get to FaceTime my mom and dad, my brother. Can

880
00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:42,320
Speaker 1: I tell you I can't wait to meet your parents.

881
00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:45,080
Speaker 1: I mean I really fired up to meet them. So

882
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:48,920
Speaker 1: let's pretend that they came down here for Thanksgiving weekend.

883
00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:55,279
Speaker 1: Would would mom have cooked a big spread? I would

884
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:58,120
Speaker 1: definitely imagine her doing that and what would she have?

885
00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:01,160
Speaker 1: What would she what's her specialty for Thanksgiving dinner? What

886
00:55:01,200 --> 00:55:05,040
Speaker 1: would you put together? Oh? Well, usually when whenever I

887
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,120
Speaker 1: had Thanksgiving at home, it was it would always be

888
00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:10,160
Speaker 1: like during deer hunting season. So we would always have

889
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:16,120
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving at one grandparents and we'd have turkey, ham stuffing

890
00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:20,240
Speaker 1: and you know, desserts like pumpkin pie, all this stuff.

891
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 1: And then because we go hunting first, and all of

892
00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:24,359
Speaker 1: a sudden, you didn't eat from like six to ten,

893
00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:26,319
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you'd eat that for lunch,

894
00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:27,840
Speaker 1: and all of a sudden you go out maybe for

895
00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:30,239
Speaker 1: another hour and come back in, and then all of

896
00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:32,880
Speaker 1: a sudden you go to the other grandparents' house and

897
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:35,920
Speaker 1: then you'd have do it again, the same thing over again,

898
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:38,279
Speaker 1: you know, and then you know, sometimes you want to

899
00:55:38,280 --> 00:55:39,560
Speaker 1: go back out, or sometimes you just want to take

900
00:55:39,560 --> 00:55:42,440
Speaker 1: a nap and watch football, you know Thanksgiving football. So no,

901
00:55:42,640 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 1: but definitely like stuffing like ham man um big stuff

902
00:55:47,640 --> 00:55:52,239
Speaker 1: and fan, big fan of ham um, turkey um. You know,

903
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,560
Speaker 1: pumpkin pie with ice cream, you know that's always good,

904
00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:58,360
Speaker 1: or like pumpkin cake. You know, it's just thanks me

905
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:01,800
Speaker 1: right now, you're killing me, man. Yeah, I reckon listening

906
00:56:01,800 --> 00:56:03,839
Speaker 1: off all this stuff and going back in my good

907
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:07,520
Speaker 1: old days back in high school. Man, Tyler, as soon

908
00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:09,680
Speaker 1: as you said dear hunting, Brown, I look each other

909
00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:12,440
Speaker 1: as like our ears we got we got like forty

910
00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:15,360
Speaker 1: five seconds. Okay, real quick. Um, I like, is that

911
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:19,319
