It was obviously important for 528 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 7: me to just fulfill my dream of playing in the 529 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 7: NFL and obviously had a great opportunity in New England 530 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 7: and can't thank them enough. But happy to be here, 531 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 7: you know, as a kid from Jacksonville, It's it's definitely 532 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 7: a dream come true. 533 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 6: It's been reported that the Patriots went to you and said. 534 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,720 Speaker 4: Would you want to go back to Jacksonville Bay Office 535 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 4: for kind of that process. Yeah. 536 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 7: Like I said, I have all the respect in the 537 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:39,879 Speaker 7: world for those guys up there. They're my first team 538 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 7: drafted me in the first round. Can thank them enough. 539 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 7: And obviously we kind of just decided the mutual parting 540 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 7: of ways was the best decision for both of us. 541 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 7: And for me it was just about moving on and 542 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 7: getting back home and I can't be more excited. And 543 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 7: for them it's about moving forward and turning the page. 544 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 7: So really that's that's kind of what we decided, and 545 00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 7: I think it's a great decision. 546 00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 4: Your time up there. 547 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,159 Speaker 7: A lot of the great learning experiences learned from a 548 00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 7: great head coach, obviously one of the greatest of all time. 549 00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 7: Been fortunate to kind of work with some great head 550 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 7: coaches and learned a lot, played a lot of games, 551 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 7: started a lot of games, and obviously things went the 552 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 7: way they did. And my goal is to kind of 553 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 7: get the train back on the track. So I think 554 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 7: I can do that here and the coaches here have 555 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:23,679 Speaker 7: talked to me about that and just how I can 556 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 7: help the room and how I can learn from Trevor 557 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,919 Speaker 7: and everybody here, and obviously he's playing great football and 558 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 7: he's done a great job here in Jacksonville. So I'm 559 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:33,320 Speaker 7: excited to get back with him and CJ and just 560 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 7: learn from them. 561 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 6: They played out regrets on do you have any personal 562 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 6: regrets or on the way. 563 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 4: Things worked out up there, or the way you handled 564 00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 4: it or the way to Patriots handler or anything. 565 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,160 Speaker 7: I think what I said earlier, just like the learning 566 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 7: part of it is just every experience is a good 567 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 7: experience if you learn from it. So you know, the 568 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,639 Speaker 7: games that we lost, the things that happen. Obviously, you 569 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 7: don't ever want to lose. You want to win every 570 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 7: game you play in, but I understand that's sometimes really 571 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 7: hard to do in the NFL. And I don't have regrets. 572 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,439 Speaker 7: I feel like I put everything out there, gave a 573 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 7: lot to that organization, and they gave a lot to me. 574 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 7: So I'm gonna do the same thing here in a 575 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,520 Speaker 7: good way and just be myself, be Mac and learning 576 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 7: from like I said, Trevor and CJ and the coaches 577 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,119 Speaker 7: here that have a lot of offensive background. That'll be 578 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,040 Speaker 7: important for me. And that's a big reason why I 579 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 7: feel like this is a good fit. 580 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 4: You like being home, being back on other than the weather. 581 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 7: Honestly, I haven't spent as much time back here as 582 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 7: I would like, so it's it feels good to be 583 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 7: back and just going to Alabama then you know, you 584 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,080 Speaker 7: get drafted up to the Northeast. It's it's a quick turnaround, 585 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,800 Speaker 7: you know how it is, and from their life goes fast. 586 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 7: So it feels good to be back. I mean, obviously 587 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 7: my parents live here and win to bowls and all that, 588 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 7: so have a lot of you know, friends around the area. 589 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 7: But obviously my main focus is always going to be football. 590 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 7: But it just feels good. My grandma's here, you know, 591 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 7: she's she's never been to a game, so maybe we'll 592 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 7: get her to a Jacksonville game to watch me, and 593 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 7: I think that'll be awesome. So you never know what happens, 594 00:23:59,200 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 7: so it's kind of full. 595 00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 5: So relaunch for you is that you look at this 596 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 5: and I'm gonna become a starter again at some point 597 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 5: in the league somewhere. 598 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 4: Yeah. 599 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 7: I think I always say be where my feet are, 600 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 7: and this is a great opportunity for me, like I said, 601 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 7: to learn from coach Peterson and the staff that he's 602 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 7: assembled here a few years Ago and Trevor and CJ 603 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,359 Speaker 7: and guys that have played a lot of football and 604 00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,320 Speaker 7: played really well. So I'm gonna do everything I can 605 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 7: just to, like I said, get the train back on 606 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 7: the tracks and get it moving in the right direction. 607 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:27,719 Speaker 4: Coming into the league. The same yours Trevor. Is there 608 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 4: any kind of relationship there the last couple of years. Yeah, 609 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 4: for sure. 610 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 7: I've known Trevor really for a little bit of time 611 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 7: here since high school and we have a few mutual 612 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 7: friends and stuff, so I've always kept up with them. 613 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 7: I have a lot of respect for his game, and 614 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 7: I'm here to just learn from him, like I said, 615 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,879 Speaker 7: And he's obviously the captain, and he's a great player, 616 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 7: and he's done a lot of good things here and 617 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 7: really I just want to win. 618 00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 1: Did you know anything about Doug Peterson before the trade? 619 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, of course, I mean Philadelphia and everything, and heard 620 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,160 Speaker 7: a lot of good things about him. And once again, 621 00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 7: there's some mutual connections there, whether it be where he 622 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 7: played college foot and things like that. So there's a 623 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,600 Speaker 7: lot of cool things there. And I think he's a 624 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,679 Speaker 7: great coach. His track record is great. He understands the 625 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 7: game because he's held the ball before you know, he's 626 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 7: been back there, he's been on the ground looking up 627 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 7: at the sky, right, So I mean he knows right. 628 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 7: And I think that's something that Trevor probably appreciates, is 629 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,920 Speaker 7: having a guy like that to be able to tell 630 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 7: him see the game how we see the game as quarterbacks, 631 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 7: and it sounds like everybody works together here, and that 632 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 7: was something that was encouraging to hear, just it's a 633 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 7: team effort and everyone's trying to win games. 634 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 4: League can be a fickle thing. 635 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 5: How yours and do you still view yourself as a 636 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:36,639 Speaker 5: starting quarterback in the NFL? 637 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, Like I said, I think this is that's a 638 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 7: great point. It's about confidence. It's about putting in the 639 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 7: work and doing everything right that you can. And I 640 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 7: felt like I did that and I'm going to continue 641 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 7: to do that. You know, the results may have been 642 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 7: there some days and may have not been there the others, 643 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 7: But I think the important part for me is sticking 644 00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 7: to that process like I've always done and just trying 645 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 7: to get back to that. But at the same time, 646 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 7: just knowing my role, knowing where I'm at, excuse me, 647 00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 7: just understanding that this is a great spot for me 648 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:03,679 Speaker 7: in my hometown. 649 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,760 Speaker 6: Does that put any more pressure on me too in 650 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:07,960 Speaker 6: being in the hometown at all? 651 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 7: No, anything, it's less. It feels good, man, It's it's 652 00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 7: it's all good. And I feel like there's, like I said, 653 00:26:16,119 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 7: they're building a good thing here. So I'm just gonna 654 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 7: come in and try and work and improve myself and 655 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 7: then obviously be a great teammate, put the team first, 656 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 7: all those things. 657 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,679 Speaker 4: Do you have a favorite memory from when you were 658 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 4: playing at balls? 659 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, I remember when we beat Rains like sixty sixty 660 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 7: to twenty maybe in the playoff game. That was great 661 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 7: because they kind of had our number for a little bit. 662 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:40,120 Speaker 7: But I have a lot of respect and still talk 663 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 7: to some of those guys that are that were on 664 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 7: those teams. And obviously my head coach, Corky Rodgers is 665 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 7: a legend around here and rest his soul, but learned 666 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 7: a lot from him, and those are just great times 667 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 7: high school football. There's nothing better. 668 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:55,880 Speaker 6: So well, everybody else is the new free agents are 669 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,639 Speaker 6: looking at houses and apartments. 670 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 4: Probably experience for you right now. 671 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 7: Yeah, I do know the area is good, and I 672 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 7: don't think I'll be saying with my parents, so maybe 673 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 7: we'll see, But yeah, my mom's coming to pick me 674 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:15,360 Speaker 7: up in about thirty minutes. It's kind of nice when 675 00:27:15,359 --> 00:27:18,479 Speaker 7: your mom can pick you up from work. So but 676 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 7: it'll be good. I think, like I said, I'm just 677 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 7: looking forward to meeting the guys and everyone. Like you said, 678 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 7: they're all new here. Sounds like gabes obviously not from 679 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 7: far down the road and stuff, so that's cool. And 680 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 7: there's some Florida ties here and there. So it's a 681 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,719 Speaker 7: great state and a great city to be in. 682 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:38,159 Speaker 4: Everything over the last three or four years for you 683 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 4: or yeah, do you have time to even do that? Absolutely? Yeah. 684 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 7: I think, like I said, everything goes pretty quick, and 685 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,919 Speaker 7: you're in college, then you're getting drafted, then you're playing games, 686 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 7: And for me, it's all about the evaluation process after 687 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 7: the season. What can I get better at? How can 688 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 7: I improve? And I feel like I did that this 689 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 7: year already and went to down to Texas and stayed 690 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 7: in a sports barn for a month and just focus 691 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 7: on football, just all football. What can I do better 692 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 7: every day? You know, five days a week, you know, 693 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,719 Speaker 7: weekends all that. Just how can I watch tape? What 694 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 7: can I do better? And that's important to me as 695 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:13,199 Speaker 7: it is with any player, they're trying to find what 696 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 7: they can do better. So that's what I do every year. 697 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 4: Cool. 698 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 7: Thank you guys, pet good to see you guys.
