21
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,080
Speaker 1: having a normal camp, and you did not have a

22
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 1: normal camp in a good way because you had an

23
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,759
Speaker 1: exceptional camp. How how did you feel camp went for

26
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,680
Speaker 1: just great to get back out there, you know, just

27
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:20,200
Speaker 1: playing football again. Uh, getting back acclimated to like the

Speaker 1: there together. You know, that's the only thing like that

32
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: makes it like worthwhile, you know, the camaraderie, the memories,

33
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: like because you're a look back on this time like

34
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: next year and be like, hey, you remember that time

35
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 1: during camp. So sure, you know, it's always fun to

36
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 1: just get back and create those moments. And what did

37
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: it mean for you to be back on the field

38
00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: playing at the level that you did in camp? Considering

39
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,080
Speaker 1: right around you know, the halfway point of the season

40
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: last year, your season's over. Making a great play. We

41
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: don't need to relive that. But you know that that

42
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 1: patellar injury that you sustained, I mean had had to

43
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: feel fantastic, just psychologically and mentally to be out there

44
00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: doing what you're doing. And most guys dread camp. I'm

45
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: sure you did not in this case, right. Uh. You

46
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:16,440

47
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 1: like you know it's coming. You feel the anticipation, like

48
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 1: I feel as soon as like OTAs is over, I'm

49
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: like okay, Like you know, I was still in rehab,

50
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 1: like I was like getting getting prepared, and I'm like, okay,

51
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 1: like the season's coming up, and I'm like, man, it's

52
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 1: gonna happen so fast. And I always know that it happened,

53
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: It's gonna happen fast. And I'm like, you know, I'm

54
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: gonna be ready, Like as soon as camps, I'm gonna

55
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: be ready, you know. And like those first like two

56
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: weeks I was like preparing. I was, you know, chipping

57
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: away every day. Just keep like I'm like, just keep

58
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: getting stronger, like you know, keep working on my endurance,

59
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: and you know, like I felt like I was in shape.

60
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: And then like came back on the camp scene like

61
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: practice and I'm like, yo, like I could do this.

62
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: I could play football like you you are. You just

63
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: have to be yourself, right, That's that's how I was thinking.

64
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 1: And I just went out there and I just did it,

65
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 1: Like you can't. You can't think about anything else. You

66
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: just got to go out there and do it, because

67
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,960
Speaker 1: you know, everything's microscopic in this league, so you know

68
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 1: it's like, hey, just go do it. Should be yourself.

69
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: That's Tae Kwon Lewis with US Colts defensive lineman. Are

70
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 1: you at the point yet? Did you reach the point

71
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,720
Speaker 1: where you're out there just playing and you're not thinking

72
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 1: about the injury in the back of your head? Yeah?

73
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,600
Speaker 1: I kind of felt that like from like kind of

74
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: the first time I got out the practice again. Really yeah,

75
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:40,320
Speaker 1: in training camp, yeah, because I was I get real

76
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: anxious or like I get frustrated to the point where

77
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: it's like, yo, I know I could do this, like

78
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: you know, like mentally like I'm I'm I'm like they're

79
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: like I'm like okay, mentally like here's where I am.

80
00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: And you know people might be like physically, I don't know,

81
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 1: you know, but mentally league physically, I was like that

82
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 1: was bold play football? Sure, you know I was. And

83
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 1: I went to Columbus UH to work out with my

84
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: with my old d line coach, and I was like,

85
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: man like, it just felt good lining up next to

86
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 1: people and it wasn't just me. It gave me a

87
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,520
Speaker 1: little bit of competition, like you know, and I was like,

88
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: I could do this right, It felt great, like just

89
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: do that. So you know, that was my mindset throughout

90
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,359
Speaker 1: the whole time. I was like, Yo, you're yourself. Be

91
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: yourself sure, because the rehab is is so individual, rights

92
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: you versus you a lot of days and it's psychological. Man, yeah,

93
00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: it's more so psychological to be back with the team

94
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:40,600
Speaker 1: doing team things right. It has to be so refreshing, definitely,

95
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: because you know it gets lonely, It gets lonely. But yeah,

96
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: you know it got great training staff over there. Man.

103
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: exude you know, optimism. How did that because you use

104

107
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 1: in the rehab. I mean it's just like it's like life,

108
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 1: Like you know, you're gonna go through some things, like

00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 1: gonna get hard. Nothing's gonna be easy, like, but you

Speaker 1: I'm gonna make it better, like I'm gonna do something

118
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: and to change the outlook. I'm like, I'm gonna stay optimistic,

119
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 1: like I don't. I can't dwell on anything that happened.

120
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 1: Like if it happened, it happened, and you know I'm

121
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: moving on, like, hey, I'm grateful it happened. Now I

00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:20,440
Speaker 1: You know that's dumb. I'm like, hey, I still got

125
00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 1: just just don't ever let your spirit die, Like, just

126
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: keep going. Man, Is it all work out? No matter

127
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 1: what happens, Like it all work out? Indeed? Man, that's

128
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 1: that's so profound right there. That's Tae Kwon Lewis with

129
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 1: US Colts defensive lineman. All right, you've had an entire

130
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 1: offseason in this defense new defensive coordinator Gus Bradley Nate

131
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: Alie is your position coach, What do you like most

132
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 1: about this new defense? Oh, you have the ability to

133
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 1: just like fly around, you know, attack, attack, attack. You

134
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: know who're playing nine techniques now, so better pass rush opportunities.

135
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 1: And for those that don't know what that is, can

136
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,240
Speaker 1: you explain nine? Nine tech is like if you have

137
00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,320
Speaker 1: a tight end next to a tackle, you know, instead

138
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,240
Speaker 1: of being in the head up over this tight end,

139
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 1: you slide over to the left or the right outside

140
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: or outside eye the tight end, and you consider like

141
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: a y now or trying technique and you have a

142
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 1: better angle to the quarterback round because you don't have

143
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,960
Speaker 1: to worry about the person in front of you, like

144
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 1: chipping you or like trying to block you. And then

145
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 1: getting out on a route versus you could now just

146
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,679
Speaker 1: attack the tackle's edge or outside outside eye or whatever

147
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 1: people want to call it, you know, to understand football terms. Uh,

148
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,440
Speaker 1: and it just gives you a better angle to the quarterback,

149
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,280
Speaker 1: so it allows you to like rush better and do

150
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: things like that. Yeah, more guys style. Yeah, I mean

151
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 1: it's it's it's it's definitely a beneficial versus the past,

152
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,760
Speaker 1: you know. And uh, you know, and then even when

153
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: it is time to like rush the pass or on

154
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,880
Speaker 1: like specific downs, you know, they still allow us to

155
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: be ourselves, like as pass rusher, especially like when I

156
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: go down inside to the three tech position, like it's

157
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: still the same, Like I could still like be who

158
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 1: I am. Yeah, you can play outside and inside as

159
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 1: we alluded to. Do you have a feel of how

160
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: you're going to be used when and where this upcoming season.

161
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: I mean yeah, I mean it's like if let's say,

162
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 1: if anything goes back, like I just always try to

163
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 1: know like every single position, right because you never like

164
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: in college, like uh, we used to get like these

165
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,840
Speaker 1: these worksheets and it'll have every play on there, and

166
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 1: I'll be like, well, I want to know what he's

167
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 1: doing because you know, you never know what may happen,

168
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 1: and like I just I was always that player who

169
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 1: has to know like how things work, because if not,

170
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: then I feel like I'm kind of clueless, Like I

171
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 1: know my job, but I'm like why am I doing this? Why? Yeah? Yeah,

172
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: I want to trust and believe that you're putting me

173
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: in a great position to be successful, like you know,

174
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: or like not just me, but the team. Like I'm

175
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,440
Speaker 1: all always for like the team, especially a defensive line

176
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 1: because like I've done it my whole life. Like I'm like, okay,

177
00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: like high school, like I started off like on varsity.

178
00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,120
Speaker 1: I started off playing three tech like on varsity in

179
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 1: high school, and I was like, you know, all right,

180
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 1: now I gotta go to end, you know. And it

181
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 1: was just like interchangeable like all throughout late as I

182
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 1: got older, like throughout college, and then I got here,

183
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: It's like all right, like this is how I learned,

184
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 1: Like I have to learn like other positions because you know,

185
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 1: the more you could do, like it's beneficial towards everyone.

186

Speaker 1: That's Tae Kwon Lewis. There's no question about that. Colt's

187
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 1: defensive end defensive tackle, depending on the situation, depending on

188
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: the scenario. I want to stay on the inside. Another

189
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 1: guy that's looked just fantastic on the defensive line is

190
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 1: Grover Stewart. Right, the guy's a beast. Seems like, yeah,

00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: mean those those first couple of games at Houston at Jacksonville,

240
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 1: five of your first seven games this season against the division?

241
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 1: How ready would you say this team is for the

242
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,199

246
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't speak for the other six games

248
00:12:56,120 --> 00:12:58,960
Speaker 1: I can't speak for those other games, but I know

249
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: I focus is on Houston and dominating the AFC. Sauth

250
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 1: because that's our first opponent and we're in the same

251
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 1: and the same conference in division, so it's a big one.

252
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 1: You know, every game is a big game, but we

253
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: have to win these games. Right. Our SOULD focuses on

254
00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,800
Speaker 1: Houston and winning this game. Indeed, get off to a
