1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: The great answer. It sounds like I'm gonna be you know, 2 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:08,280 Speaker 1: keep playing catch up, you know. But yeah, we'll see, 3 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:10,080 Speaker 1: We'll see how he goes. They see what Y'll think. 4 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 1: It would be a good camaraderie on the roster, just 5 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:27,880 Speaker 1: as as conversations, you know. Yeah, no, No, Chad's done 6 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,040 Speaker 1: a good job. You know, he's a student of the game. 7 00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,879 Speaker 1: You know. Every day he's definitely trying to improve and 8 00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: get better out there on the field. And that's what 9 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: you ask for any young player, is you know, are 10 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,599 Speaker 1: they continuing to work to improve every day? You know? 11 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: And are they getting better each day? Are they on 12 00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: that steady incline? And you know, and they're not leveling 13 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: all for dropping down. We're just trying to continue to 14 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 1: that slow incline, you know. And and Chas, you know, 15 00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: he's taking the coaching well. You know, he's applied it 16 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: well out there on the field and the practice you know, 17 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: in the meeting rooms, you know, learning just watch as 18 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,160 Speaker 1: much film as you can from you know, himself to 19 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: anyone else and just studying. So he's done a really 20 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,319 Speaker 1: good job. You know, he's got a good head on 21 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: his shoulders. You know, he's got that mentality of every 22 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 1: kick is his own kick. So you know, he's done 23 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 1: a really good job, especially as a young guy being 24 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: composed and being ployees out there, you know. So you know, 25 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: we're looking forward to it and moving forward with. 26 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 2: Him, and then there's really quickly whatever kind of breakdown 27 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,199 Speaker 2: you can offer on the Eagles and the primary threats. 28 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, Michael Klay's done a great job with those guys. 29 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: You know. It goes back to when we you know, 30 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: practice against him in twenty one, you know, and he's 31 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: taken over. He's done a really good job there. Guy's 32 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: played really hard, you know, and he's got you know, 33 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: really good gunners out there, and Josh Joe you know, 34 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,319 Speaker 1: twenty eight. You know, he's played forum, plays hard, very aggressive, 35 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: physical player. You know, they do a lot. They've got 36 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: punt formations where they'll break out into different formations and 37 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: and different things where we're looking at, you know, how 38 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: are we going to adjust to the formation adjustments, And 39 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: then they provide a lot of things, you know, whether 40 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 1: it's that or late substitutions or you know, getting the 41 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: team the punk time team on and off the field, 42 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: you know, just different things. They do a really good 43 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: job you know, they play hard, to play fast, and 44 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,520 Speaker 1: they've got both speed and size guys, you know, so 45 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: it's a unique matchup. It's not like they're built with 46 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 1: all just speed players. They've got a combination of whether 47 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,519 Speaker 1: it's the Yels guy fifty three out there running down, 48 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,880 Speaker 1: you know, forty eight running down with size, they play 49 00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: with some of the tight ends, and then they have 50 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,360 Speaker 1: speed from their safety positions, whether it's blank and shot 51 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,239 Speaker 1: you know, thirty two, A couple of different younger guys 52 00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: that have shown up in preseason out there. So it's 53 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: gonna be a really good challenge for our guys not 54 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,840 Speaker 1: to mention in the coverage phase, whether it's the Covey kid, 55 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: or it's Boston Scott or you know Smith, you know, 56 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: back there's a pumper turner. They've got different guys they 57 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 1: can put back there that are all weapons. So it's 58 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 1: a good challenge for us our guys in Week one. 59 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 1: I think our guys are excited for the opportunity. I 60 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 1: think we're all excited to finally get the regular season started, 61 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,960 Speaker 1: you know, training campus finally, you know, call it moving 62 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,280 Speaker 1: on to the opponent you're going to, you know, face 63 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: and looking forward to that, so the extra energy out 64 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,640 Speaker 1: of practice, you know, the game plans and everything like that. 65 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,160 Speaker 1: So it's an exciting time. And but you know they're 66 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: definitely uh are going to present a difficult challenge for 67 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 1: our guys out there on the field, and and hopefully 68 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: you know our guys, you know we stand up to them, 69 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 1: and you know we're able to take advantage of it. 70 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: Thanks Andrew. Next question, good field, how are we doing good? 71 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 3: I I know we've asked you about kickoff in the 72 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,799 Speaker 3: past year. I'm just wondering, now that we're the full preseason, 73 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,119 Speaker 3: if you've gotten a sense for how teams might be 74 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 3: handling it, or is it one of those things where 75 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 3: you know that teams aren't going to show their hands 76 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,119 Speaker 3: in that way in those exhibitions and and you think, 77 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 3: you know, we'll see some surprises here. We one in 78 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 3: terms of how. 79 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: I think there'll be UH per team, different ways each 80 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: team handled it. I don't think there was much during 81 00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: pre season for teams. I think it's more situationally, like, 82 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: all right, the game's right of hand the second half, 83 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 1: or you know, there were some fair catches, but honestly, 84 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 1: most of those fair catchers were in the end zone. Anyway, 85 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: So there really wasn't a point to fair catch them. 86 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: The ball just hitting the ground is gonna be a 87 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,680 Speaker 1: touch back, so I think there wasn't a lot of that. Now, 88 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: there was a lot of several squip kicks and you know, 89 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: kicks on the ground throughout the league in preseason, and 90 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: I think that was more so just working the kickers, 91 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: trying to put the ball in space, seeing what they 92 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: would do effectively in a game environment. So I think 93 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: as the weeks go, we'll start seeing each team's kind 94 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: of developing their philosophy and how they want to handle 95 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: those situations and which teams actually are willing and wanting 96 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:37,719 Speaker 1: to fair catch. I do think some will want to 97 00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: fair catch it, you know, And I think each team, again, 98 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 1: like I said, would be individual base. But I don't 99 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: think preseason was like everybody was trying to show their 100 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: hand by any means. I think each week will be 101 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: a learning process, and I think we'll be able to 102 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,720 Speaker 1: study a lot of league tape and hopefully by the 103 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: middle of the season you kind of got to grasp 104 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: them how this play is going to continue to play out, 105 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: and if there's much changes at all to the play 106 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: based off of players and teams are wanting a fair 107 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 1: catch at all. 108 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 3: This is probably if a team of these. 109 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 2: Is it. 110 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: If so, it's you know, the way they've they've done. 111 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: The rule now is if you muffet the balls a 112 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: live ball, so the kickoff team still has a chance 113 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: to recover the ball and get possession. And whenever they 114 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: do recover the ball as a return team, that's where 115 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: they do get possession. So if you if it hits 116 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: your chest called on the five yard line, you recovered 117 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 1: on the ten, you're gonna get on the ten. But 118 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 1: the kickoff covers team still has the opportunity to recover 119 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: that football. So a muff is still classified the same 120 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: as a punt, meaning it's a live football. It's not 121 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: dead just because you signal a fair catch, no problem. 122 00:05:52,000 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 4: Absolutely, Yeah, So this is actually like so it sounds 123 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 4: like the technique for you to coach the players is 124 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 4: you still have to go on a kickoff because you 125 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 4: don't know if the guy's gonna bumpet. 126 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 3: The whole point of this is to reduce concussions, but 127 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 3: you still have your guys going hard on every kick. 128 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 3: So it seems like this rule doesn't accomplish. 129 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 2: With the. 130 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, what we teach our guys is very similar 131 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: to the kickoff returners sticking out the iron cross symbol, 132 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: you know, in which most universally that's like, hey, I'm 133 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: not catching this ball as a kickoff returner. But that's 134 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:32,160 Speaker 1: not always the case. Like you play some teams that 135 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 1: the coaches you know, or the player decide to you know, 136 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: bluff out the signal and then they return the football. 137 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: So you know, for us, we teach it the same way. Look, 138 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: you guys, you got to cover through through the whistle, 139 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: cover through the play, you know, and obviously if there's 140 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: a guy standing in front of you and he's trying 141 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: to block you, well you've got to take that guy 142 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 1: on either avoiding or you know, strike with your with 143 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 1: your hands first. You know, we're not ever gonna teach 144 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 1: the lead with the head or anything like that for 145 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,840 Speaker 1: the for that reason, but strike with your hands to 146 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: get off the block. So again, depending on where those 147 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: blocks are happening and when the ball is actually making 148 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: contact with the turner, there's still going to be some 149 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: contact you know, prior to the play, because again you 150 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: have to cover through whether it's the iron cross signal, 151 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: where it's the fair catch signal. To your point, Ben, 152 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: you've got to cover the play all the way through 153 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:14,679 Speaker 1: the end of the play. 154 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 2: Yeah. Interesting. 155 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 3: So I guess, on a different topic, just to go 156 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 3: to the season. 157 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: With rookies that you know we've had, you know, you know, 158 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: obviously we've had a rookie punter in the past since 159 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: I've been here. But I think for us, it's no 160 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: different than any other position. Again, you want to bring 161 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: them along each day, and each experience is a learning experience, 162 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: you know, And it's just you don't want to overload 163 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: them and put too much on their plate. And just 164 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: as they understand, by the time the middle of the 165 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 1: seasons up, they're no longer rookies, you know. And that's 166 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: kind of what I tell them, Like, look, guys, every 167 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 1: day as long as you're can improve it and you're 168 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: getting better and you're going through the mechanics, and you 169 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: got to take advantage of every rep and every opportunity. 170 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: So by the time the middle of the season's here, 171 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: you're no longer like a rookie in terms of mindset 172 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: and the reps you've had. So I think we just 173 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 1: approached it the same way we approach other guys, Like, look, 174 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: We're not gonna throw the kitchen sink out the day one. 175 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: We're not gonna do that. But again, you got to 176 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: go out there and be at the hand of your job, 177 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 1: your responsibility as an effective manner. 178 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 2: Es. 179 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: Hey, Bob, you are doing work with Chris. 180 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 2: For what's been like to have. 181 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: Chris has been great. You know, Chris shows up, uh, 182 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: you know, ready to work every day, takes great notes, 183 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: definitely has the attention to the details, wants to improve, 184 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,239 Speaker 1: and wants to be you know, I say, a perfectionist 185 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:53,719 Speaker 1: of his craft. You know, obviously his physical physique and 186 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: athletic ability speaks for itself out there on the field. 187 00:08:57,320 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 1: But his off the field and his demeanor has been great. 188 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 1: You know, he's fitting well with the room, He's fitting 189 00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: well in the locker room with the guys. You know, 190 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: he he takes the learning, he takes the coaching, He's 191 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: able to make the adjustments. You know, He's been really 192 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: good for us out there on the field. You know, 193 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: I think he's a great addition. You know, look forward 194 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: to seeing him, you know in the game day and 195 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 1: in the situation once we kick off here on Sunday. 196 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,720 Speaker 1: But you know, I can't say enough about Chris. You know, 197 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 1: his attitude, you know, his ability off the field to 198 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 1: didn't take it to on the field. You know, his presence. 199 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: Like I said, he's done a really good job for us. 200 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 1: I mean really glad that we have him on our 201 00:09:31,640 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: team this year. 202 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:33,920 Speaker 4: It's very. 203 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:39,439 Speaker 3: What's his value behind, right, I know? 204 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 2: Job develop. 205 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I mean I think any guy that's on 206 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: the practice squad, they can be elevated at any point, 207 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 1: you know. So I think when you talk about practice 208 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: squad now in terms of the NFL, it's totally different 209 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,679 Speaker 1: than it was. You know, call it twenty nineteen season, 210 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen season, where you can elevate two guys a week, 211 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 1: you know, So those guys I don't really look at 212 00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: practice squad anymore. In my mind, these are you know, 213 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,679 Speaker 1: eligible roster players, and based off what they do out 214 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: there on the field determines you know, hey, if you 215 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 1: do enough in practice and you're showing the development like 216 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: you said, like these guys are developing. You know, if 217 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,679 Speaker 1: we didn't think they were developed or anything, there'll probably 218 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 1: be less you know, need for him on the practice 219 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: squad so to speak. But I think of them as 220 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 1: roster players because they can play on game day. So 221 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 1: the approach for those guys is every day, you know, 222 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: showing that I can take and improve each day, continue 223 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,800 Speaker 1: to get better because they do have the opportunity to 224 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 1: play on game day, you know. And Corlus's you know, 225 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 1: a guy like that. For sure. He's done a great 226 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 1: job for us. You know, he can handle the kickoffs, 227 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: he can punt you know, and hold all that. He 228 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 1: does everything, you know, and he's a great guy to 229 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:53,080 Speaker 1: be around. You know. Obviously you know, didn't get tons 230 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 1: of opportunities in preseason, but that's just kind of the 231 00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 1: way the game's played out. You know, it's with you, 232 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: Thanks Ben. Similar to what Bob. 233 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 2: Said, the rookie kicker and both fighting for Johnson camp, 234 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 2: how beneficial was it to have both play well and 235 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 2: make those competitions competitive and put the young guys, you know, 236 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 2: and also especially in the case of you. 237 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: Don't teach them. Yeah, no, I think that's invaluable. I 238 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 1: think competition brings out the best in anyone. And I 239 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 1: think anytime any person or players like doesn't want competition, 240 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: well as chances are that's because they just don't see 241 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,719 Speaker 1: them having a chance. So anytime you can have competition 242 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: at a position, whether it's the kicking position, it's a 243 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: core cover player in the kicking game position, it's gonna 244 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 1: only make that player better, but both players better to 245 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: be honest with you, which is is so good to have, 246 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,440 Speaker 1: you know, call it four guys that are on NFL 247 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: rosters competing with one another because they're all really good 248 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 1: football players. So I think that helped progress everybody. I 249 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: think the leadership from from the older guys in the rooms, 250 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 1: you know, help bring younger guys along, let them see 251 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: how it's done on a daily basis. I think players 252 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,320 Speaker 1: can learn from other players when it comes to the 253 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: off the field routines and how to study the film 254 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 1: and and that just goes a long way because you know, 255 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: we coach the position, we coach the techniques, you know, 256 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,280 Speaker 1: but then the body management, management of how to recover, 257 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 1: how to take care of yourself, that's you know, that's 258 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,439 Speaker 1: the nutrition. The other players can speak to that. So, 259 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 1: you know, I think it goes without saying how well 260 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,520 Speaker 1: respected both Corlis and you know Nick was when he 261 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: there's time here, you know, wish him nothing but the best, 262 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 1: have nothing but great things to say about that guy 263 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,560 Speaker 1: as a player on and off the field you thanks 264 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 1: to God, thank you very much, thank you all.
