1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,280 Speaker 1: You're dealing one kwan now that COVID is not an 2 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:05,520 Speaker 1: impediment for him playing. Sunday's the first day really in 3 00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: the building with us. We'll let him see the trainers 4 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:08,559 Speaker 1: and see how that leads. We'll see if that's gonna 5 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 1: be available for practice or not. We won't have anything 6 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:12,080 Speaker 1: leading into until we kind of see him out there 7 00:00:12,119 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 1: moving a little bit. So he's kind of in their 8 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:17,920 Speaker 1: hands right now. What about practicing? What's that? What's your 9 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: expectation on him about the I really don't have until 10 00:00:20,680 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: I get some feedback from the trainers. Like I said, 11 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:23,840 Speaker 1: he's been out of the building the last couple of days. 12 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 1: We haven't had a chance to see where he's progressed too, 13 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: and where he's at physically. So they're gonna take a 14 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: look at and moving around. Then we'll see being progressing 15 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 1: some practice with us. You need to see him practice 16 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: in order to play now, I'd say a guy who's 17 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: been out for several weeks like that, Yeah, we'd like 18 00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: to see him on the field. Make sure that we 19 00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:42,199 Speaker 1: can ensure how he's moving, that you get out there 20 00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 1: and do things that's safely and stay on the field. 21 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,560 Speaker 1: In terms of like where he's at our expectation. Until 22 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:48,800 Speaker 1: they give me some information and feedback, it's all just 23 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: guessing right now. Kenny should be good for Sunday from 24 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 1: only finishing we have Za's in the building right now 25 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: long with se Kwan, so I mean, look, the only 26 00:00:56,960 --> 00:00:58,440 Speaker 1: positive we have they were still kind of waiting a 27 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,639 Speaker 1: limbo on is Gary Brightwell, he still has a chance 28 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: to clear as well. So he's been a zoom meeting 29 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: to stay up the day on the game plan. I 30 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,400 Speaker 1: don't hold up yesterday. He's just doing a little more 31 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: than he had been uh lately, a decent day. Yes, 32 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 1: they moved around with a little bit more, you know 33 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: between Wednesday and Thursday. You know, see how that comes 34 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 1: out today. But he had a couple of these days worse. 35 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,119 Speaker 1: How close do you think he is the game action 36 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: being ready for a game action? Then I know he's 37 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 1: mentally writing prepared for it. So we'll just kinda see 38 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 1: he moves around today, see if we can open him 39 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: up a little bit and see what you think we 40 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: can get him on the field, keep him on the field. 41 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: I know he's pushing to get out there. He's been 42 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: very uh, very open about wanting to play, so we'll 43 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: make sure that he's in position to play for him 44 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: out there. At least I saw Sake one it was 45 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: on TV and his ankle was about this big. I mean, 46 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,959 Speaker 1: do you know at least that the ankle is back 47 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,639 Speaker 1: to where it's it's not your firm to the Dallas 48 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: game when it happened. Yeah, that's I mean, that's lessing. 49 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,600 Speaker 1: I cause ankle it's been in a significant amount of time. 50 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: It's obviously gone down since then through treatment and just 51 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: natural healing. They've done some different things with him as 52 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: far as you know, whatever treatment they can do, and uh, 53 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: you know, he's assured us that he's moving in the 54 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: right direction. Um. But again, you know, he's a very 55 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: competitive player. He wants to be out there. He wants 56 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,359 Speaker 1: to be out there competing on the field with his teammates. 57 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: You know, we've got to make sure we can get 58 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 1: him out there and see him before we go ahead 59 00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: and just you know, so take some mu's work for it. 60 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: So without this COVID situation, though, would you likely be 61 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: counting on him on Sunday. I couldn't. It's all hypothetical 62 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 1: because we wouldn't have had a chance to see him 63 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: all Wednesday when we got back out there. Not having 64 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: them those two days with COVID removal really kind of 65 00:02:25,919 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: changed a lot of things in terms of expecting what 66 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 1: we can see out him today. He was optimistic, you know, 67 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,399 Speaker 1: right afterwards, and it wouldn't be kind of that long 68 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: an injury and he wouldn't be out that long. Are 69 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 1: you talking about right after the initial injury? You have 70 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: talking like the week after. I think he talked to 71 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: us a few days later. It's like that Friday. Uh, 72 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,519 Speaker 1: how how come it, sir? It's maybe taking longer he 73 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 1: was there a setback or has it? Has it taken 74 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: a long time to take a while for the swelling 75 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 1: to go down. I think it's a combination of things. 76 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: Without going to the specifics of every injury, you know, 77 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: I'm always has to give timetables on things because injury 78 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: is different. Everybody does respond different. So just by simply 79 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 1: saying it's an ankle, you know, sometimes it gives you 80 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: an artificial timetail maybe what somebody else went through. Everyone's 81 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:10,679 Speaker 1: body is different. You gotta give him a chance to 82 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,160 Speaker 1: get out there and make sure you can play full speed. 83 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: He does get out there, He's worked hard through He's 84 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: done everything that we've asked to do. He's been with 85 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: the medical team the entire time through he stayed involved 86 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 1: in the meetings, whether it's here or through Zoom the 87 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: last couple of days. I don't have a whole lot 88 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 1: of answers on you right now. Physically where he's at. 89 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: I know he's continuously got better and when he's able 90 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: to get out there and put him out there, Brown's 91 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: officially announced. The team announced that Odell Beckham got released. 92 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 1: I'm curious what your thoughts are on him from that's 93 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: a player from AFAR. I would say, just official on 94 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: any player until it officially hits the waiver wire. There's 95 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: still someone else's roster. We're not gonna come out any 96 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: players from another team's rosters. I'm not getting hypotheticals, and 97 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: I right there. I appreciate the question. Just understand that's 98 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 1: coming to the the policy. You know always, Joe, what do 99 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: you expect from the Raiders on Sunday? They're well coached 100 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: team who plays at a high level. They play very 101 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: balanced on offense. We expect them to come in here 102 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 1: and try to establish run, use a play action pass, 103 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: the definitely explosive downfield passing team. You know, Card is 104 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: a great job of that, whether it's you know, early 105 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: downs or third down, especially once the third and call 106 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: it you're at four to six range. We get a 107 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: lot of man coverage a lot of times see car 108 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: and he'll go ahead and stay away from all the 109 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,840 Speaker 1: traffic underneath with the mess routs and all and just 110 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 1: take the one on one matchup outside. So we expect 111 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: to push the ball down the field. Somebody's done very 112 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,440 Speaker 1: well throughout his career. They're doing a very high level, 113 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: you know right now. Really the offense, it goes through 114 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: a lot of the backs and tight ends. The receivers 115 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: are big playmakers as well. You know. Obviously you gotta 116 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: you know, run front of those guys on third down, 117 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: you have to be aware of those guys. But really 118 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,359 Speaker 1: those backs and tight ends with the early down runs, 119 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:37,600 Speaker 1: the screen game to check downs, do a very good 120 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: job being balanced and staying you know, committed taking the profit. 121 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: And then when the shots come, they take them. Defensively, 122 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: team plays fast, you know, I expecting them to come 123 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 1: in here, you know, really try to get after the quarterback, 124 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: try to penetrate and disrupt the run. Make you one dimensional, 125 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: you know, on the back end. It's a very play 126 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: top down. Make sure you check the ball down, then 127 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: go rally and tackle you in the kicking game. I 128 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: always expect their time play Richie. You know their sound. 129 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: They're aggressive. He looks to always have something up his sleeve. 130 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: You got understand with Richie, what's he looking at based 131 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 1: on what you put on tape. You have to go 132 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 1: in understanding. You know what gimmicker gads he's gonna look 133 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: to make a play in a game where that's early, 134 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: especially early on the road, has been a history of his. 135 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: But he's very aggressive when it gets going. You know. 136 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: In terms of their coverage units, they got big legs specialists. 137 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: They like to move the ball around the kickoff team. 138 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: That leads into a lot of you know, you're playing 139 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 1: more of a reactive motion where the ball is going 140 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: to go. There's a lot of twists and folds. They 141 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 1: got a good combination of size and speed that the 142 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 1: fast guys played out in our fast the big guys 143 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 1: flow off them and cancel out lanes and do a 144 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 1: very good job of that. You know. In terms they're 145 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: a rush game. They're very good on the field goal 146 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: block and the punt Rushes. You know, Corey Littleton's the 147 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 1: guy really made his name in this league blocking kicks 148 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,600 Speaker 1: for the Rams. He's carried out with the with the 149 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 1: Raiders where he's still being using that unit right there. 150 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 1: So I'd say in terms what we expect from them, 151 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: we expect the team that's gonna come here and play 152 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: balunce in all three phases and be situationally where there's 153 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,840 Speaker 1: probably going to be some sort of an emotional component 154 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: for them, given the week that they've had. Do you, 155 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: as a coach just have to discount all of that 156 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: and just do what you just did, and that's focus 157 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 1: on the XS and hose. Yeah, all we controls we control, 158 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know what it's going to be 159 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: for them in terms of, you know, in the locker 160 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: man stuff. I couldn't answer that question. In terms of 161 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: us it's responsible to get ready for what's gonna happen 162 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: Field of caiustum Um. I know, obviously it's practiced. I 163 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 1: believe a limited basis.
