1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:05,040
Speaker 1: Hey, Joe, how are you. I'm well, I'm well. So

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,119
Speaker 1: you've you've been certainly vocal in practice. We can hear

3
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,080
Speaker 1: you all the way in the bleachers. How are you

4
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,800
Speaker 1: adjusting right now? Just to the role you have and

5
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 1: the leadership responsibility that it seems like you're taking. I

6
00:00:17,320 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 1: would say being a linebacker in general, it involves a

7
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:22,479
Speaker 1: lot of communication, and us as a defense period, we

8
00:00:22,520 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 1: communicate a whole lot. So um, it's a piece to

9
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 1: the puzzle and a piece that's very valuable to our defense.

10
00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: So um, me being a linebacker, I kind of gotta

11
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 1: that comes with the territory. And uh, it's obviously it's

12
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:37,320
Speaker 1: a it's a young group right now, it's in the

13
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,600
Speaker 1: linebacker room. What are your impressions to some of the

14
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:45,200
Speaker 1: rookies Josh Uche and Cash Molly and so far, everybody's everybody.

15
00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:47,120
Speaker 1: We all getting to know each other a little bit. Um.

16
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 1: We're working day in the day out to get better.

17
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 1: Everybody's smart, everybody brings different qualities to the table. So

18
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: now we're just piecing it all together and we're excited

19
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: to continue to work and staff these days together. Thank you.

20
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 1: Next question Levin read oh By Mike Giardi a joan,

21
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:08,759
Speaker 1: thank you for doing this. I have to ask you,

22
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: how exciting has this week been? Where you get a

23
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: chance to hit, you get a chance to go through

24
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: different skills and different plans and kind of put body

25
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,880
Speaker 1: and hat on hat on guys. It's really exciting, especially

26
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 1: because we didn't have the opportunity to do OTAs and

27
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,880
Speaker 1: many camping things like that, so you hadn't seen some

28
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: of your guys for a long period of time. So

29
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: getting back out there and seeing everybody, that's the joy

30
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: in itself, and then throwing on the path. It's kind

31
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 1: of like icing on the cake, to be honest, because

32
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: you just kind of excited. It's been a while, so

33
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 1: we just knocked the dusk off a little bit and

34
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 1: we're excited about it. Do you like the idea you

35
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 1: get a chance to see guys maybe that you didn't

36
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: know they have the trash talking going on, and it

37
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: kind of raises the compete level of everybody in the room.

38
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: I feel like that comes with a little bit people's

39
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 1: playing style. A lot of guys have that and the

40
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: arsenal trash talking as a piece of it. So whatever

41
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: you got, bring it to the table. We're excited about it. Joan,

42
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 1: As you mentioned about being vocal and that's part of

43
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: the linebacker. But I'm just curious, what do you take

44
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: from your time spell with Dante High Tower and how

45
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: do you feel like that maybe is helping you here

46
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,519
Speaker 1: as you're sort of transition into being the I guess

47
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:20,679
Speaker 1: the old guy in the room now being with being

48
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 1: with Hot Tower and all the other linebackers that I

49
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 1: would had had the opportunity to be with. Obviously you

50
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: take bits and pieces from their game and add it

51
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:31,919
Speaker 1: to yours. Great people, I mean I constantly constantly kind

52
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: of picked use guys brain. I think I spoke on

53
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: that earlier in my career, is speaking on the amount

54
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 1: of vest that we had, an amount of knowledge that's

55
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 1: at your disposal and experience. So having those guys around

56
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,639
Speaker 1: you definitely take bits and pieces from them. And now

57
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: we're just kind of moving forward with it. But obviously

58
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 1: those guys are still around and he's still able to

59
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: talk to him. We always hear when you know, younger

60
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: guys come in the league about maybe sometimes the speech

61
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: to the game mentally, you know, and as an adjustment

62
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: period there do you feel like now at this point

63
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:08,040
Speaker 1: in your career obviously several years in that it's it's

64
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 1: moving to get a good pace for you to see

65
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 1: and understand. I probably won't get too much into personal

66
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,239
Speaker 1: growth and things like that, but I was like a

67
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: met thing. I look to attack every single day and uh,

68
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: as as a team we bring that to the table.

69
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 1: We look to attack the day and whatever we need

70
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: to get better as a unit. We're just pieces to

71
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: the puzzle. I mean, you need to eleven guys, but

72
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: personally you just look to perfect perfect your craft and

73
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 1: add your piece to the bigger puzzle, which is the

74
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: defense board of the team. And it looks like a

75
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: final question. It will have been volling. Go ahead, Ben,

76
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: thanks for doing this, Juan did to see you, um

77
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: curious being a defensive guy. What's been your impression of

78
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: playing across the ball from Cam Newton so far and

79
00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 1: just what you've been impression of what type of player

80
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: he is through the first couple of weeks of knowing

81
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: him so far. Well, me personally, I'm just excited to

82
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 1: be on the field looking across from somebody. Just in general,

83
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: we go from not having ots in mini camp to

84
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: being out on the football fields. It's just any quarterback,

85
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: to be honest, obviously a judge, Stadim and Brown Hoyer

86
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: pieces to that puzzle too, But obviously if you deal

87
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: them with three great quarterbacks, we did them with a

88
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 1: great a great amount of talent on the offensive side

89
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,760
Speaker 1: of the ball as well as the defensive side of

90
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: the ball. So every day we're just looking to kind

91
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 1: of get better. And obviously you're excited seeing all the

92
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: different guys you get to play with or play against

93
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 1: on a day to day basis, and us not have

94
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: a preseason games add ads that a little bit to

95
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 1: the puzzle also, but playing against the great quarterbacks every

96
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: single snap, for the most part, it's a great it's

97
00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 1: a great opportunity. Has the tenor of practice changed much

98
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: without with three new quarterbacks in there more or less,

99
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 1: instead of Tom Brady being the guy you face every day,

100
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,279
Speaker 1: we do. I think as far as the defense, we

101
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 1: really don't know if it's turning out so too much

102
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:53,599
Speaker 1: with the offensive don we gotta do what we do

103
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball. So for the

104
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 1: most part, I really can answer that question. Sure, Okay,

105
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: thanks a lot n
