1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:02,960 Speaker 1: You know, back in the spring, you talked about hopefully 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,280 Speaker 1: having a bigger role, you know, playing a little on 3 00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,280 Speaker 1: the outside. You've been getting some outside reps and whatnot. 4 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:10,799 Speaker 1: What convinced you that you know that would be a 5 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 1: good fit for you in this offense. 6 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 2: I mean I had done it in practice and done 7 00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:17,960 Speaker 2: stuff all the time, and even before they jacked me, 8 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 2: I'd played outside and things like that too. So it 9 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 2: was just always just you know, wanting to be a 10 00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 2: complete receiver and at the end of the day knowing 11 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 2: that we had rest there and now wanting some more 12 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 2: downfill targets and just having improved to those proaches that 13 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 2: I can play all all the different spots in the 14 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:32,279 Speaker 2: receiver room. 15 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 1: So in terms of the receivers, you're not the most experienced. 16 00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 1: That's slat, But given you know what you grew on 17 00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,200 Speaker 1: to the table. I mean, do you feel yourself growing 18 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:42,279 Speaker 1: into that leadership room? 19 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt. I mean I think we're extremely young 20 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 2: receiver room, and I think we're really self motivated a 21 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,519 Speaker 2: lot of us, so we don't really have to get 22 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 2: on each other and per se lead, but especially for 23 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 2: our offense and things like that, for us to get 24 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 2: going sometimes definitely might have to speak up a little 25 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 2: bit more than normal, But at the end of the day, 26 00:00:58,800 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 2: still be myself. 27 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,280 Speaker 1: When you think back to where you were started and 28 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,399 Speaker 1: then you have the knee injury to where you are now, 29 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 1: and does it kind of blow your mind how far 30 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:07,119 Speaker 1: you've come? 31 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, no doubt. I mean the last time I had 32 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 2: a hundre yard game on toylet ACL. So I'm just 33 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 2: happy to be here for another week even after that 34 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 2: that hunter of yard game, and just continue to do that. 35 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: When you look at your film, I'm sure there are 36 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: things you still want to be able to do a 37 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: little bit better. What are some of those things? 38 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: I mean, just at the end of the day, I 39 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 2: really want to make every third down conversion that I have. 40 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 2: There was one, actually there was two this past week 41 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,080 Speaker 2: that I wish I would have had back and just 42 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 2: to be able to make those plays. And so yeah, 43 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 2: what does. 44 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: It mean to you to be counted on in high 45 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:36,559 Speaker 1: pressure situations on third down? 46 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:38,440 Speaker 2: I mean it means a lot. I mean, it just 47 00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 2: goes to show the trust that our quarterbacks and the 48 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 2: coaches having me, and I just want to continue to 49 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 2: build on that and continue to be the guy that 50 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: they can go to on third down, especially, you know, 51 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 2: like I said, they're going to doublem a leak a 52 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 2: lot of times, and so there's got to be somebody 53 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 2: to answer. Russa said, he reminds you or you remind 54 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:56,160 Speaker 2: him of Tyler Lockett. 55 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: Do you kind of agree with that? 56 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: I would say a little bit. I say, I don't 57 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,559 Speaker 2: slide for sure, whenever I get the ball like Tyler. 58 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 2: My dad would probably scream with me if I did that. 59 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean I'd definitely see some similarities being 60 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 2: able to get open against zone and man and just 61 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 2: being a friendly target for the quarterback at all times. 62 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 1: Also said your nature too, Yeah, your work out there everything. 63 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 1: Where does that come from? 64 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 2: I say that comes to my dad. I say, from 65 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 2: the time he came home from being incarcerated. I was fifteen. 66 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 2: We started working on the garage so five am, and 67 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 2: ever since then, I've always just kind of been a worker.
