1
00:00:01,480 --> 00:00:04,360
Speaker 1: Ask Bill about you this morning. He said that you've

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 1: been able to do different things with you over the

3
00:00:06,080 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 1: course of your career and over the last few years.

4
00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: How important is it for you to keep drawing as

5
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:16,440
Speaker 1: a player. Uh. I think if you're done growing, you're

6
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,919
Speaker 1: done playing. My dad I always say, when you green,

7
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:22,080
Speaker 1: you grow, when you ripe, you're at And uh, that's

8
00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 1: what you do here. You try to continually go out

9
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 1: and try to get better. UM, improve whatever you could improve.

10
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: And that's what I'll do until what day I'm done.

11
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,520
Speaker 1: You're familiar with basing them twice last year different. What's

12
00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: the biggest change that you noticed? Uh, you know, schematically,

13
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:46,279
Speaker 1: they're they're real different. Um. And you know they got

14
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 1: spags now and he's gonna have them ready to uh

15
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: you know, change it up on us and see what

16
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: you know the game is when we go out and

17
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: play it. But it's definitely gonna be a little different. UM,

18
00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: So you gotta be prepared for everything. UM. Coach Red

19
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: always has this team fire and every time they come

20
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: out and play us, and it always goes to the

21
00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 1: last play. So uh, and that's what we expect this game.

22
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: And uh, you know we'll have to go out next

23
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 1: quete to to give our best shot. He's not too

24
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 1: unique guy to go up against you. Yeah, I mean

25
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: he's he's pretty unique. They're all unique. Um, so you know,

26
00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: I don't we'll see, you know, with with you know,

27
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: everyone's got everyone's good and and he's a special player

28
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 1: as well. I mean he's he's done a lot of

29
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: great things. He's got a knack for the ball. Uh

30
00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: you know, he's he's a good football player. I enjoy

31
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: watching him play. And um, you know, you gotta be

32
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 1: on your p's and ques around a guy like him,

33
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 1: or he's gonna expose you. Knowing what their offense that

34
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 1: any additional pressure on your offense to you're always looking

35
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: for a quick start to get out there and match

36
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:08,680
Speaker 1: what they can do. I think we're just worried about

37
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,000
Speaker 1: us and what we have to go to do to

38
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: to execute and and play our best games. So, um,

39
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,079
Speaker 1: you know, of course they got an explosive offense, but uh,

40
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: you know I like our defense too, So we'll see.

41
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,160
Speaker 1: You can play a wide receiver in the doesn't look

42
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: that hard. Do you think that Steph could could line

43
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: up a water si? He said that, he said, don't

44
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: look that hard. Probably he's good on social media. But

45
00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 1: Tom Rady the capturing trust and how long you get

46
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: took for you to establish trust with Rady or do

47
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 1: you think it gain naturally as you guys became friends

48
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: early years and even playing with him for years. I

49
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: think you have to go out and earn it every day.

50
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,080
Speaker 1: In practice, you're still continue to try to gain trust.

51
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 1: Trust is and something that you just get and it stays.

52
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: You got to continually try to earn it. So, um,

53
00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,640
Speaker 1: it took me a while to get in and you know,

54
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: get a chemistry with him. Um, but you know you

55
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: go out every day and you try to work that

56
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 1: and you try to keep it. We know that you're

57
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 1: one of the leaders on this offense. Is that something

58
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,800
Speaker 1: that you reiterate to the younger receivers who are trying

59
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,240
Speaker 1: to build that chemistry with rereading? You have to work

60
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,520
Speaker 1: at it every day. Yeah, I mean consistency through practice

61
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: is what what gets you. Um. You know, shows that

62
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: you're accountable, reliable, dependable and those are the types of

63
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: things you need to do, uh in practice in order

64
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: to show your teammates. And that's what that's the pressures

65
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: of being you know in a team, such a team sport.

66
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 1: You know every day you think, you know, I want

67
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 1: to go out and do well. So my my teammate

68
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,000
Speaker 1: sees me do well, so he trusts and he knows

69
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,680
Speaker 1: that I'm accountable for what I'm going out there and doing. So. Um,

70
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 1: you know that's kind of where we do here. Why

71
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 1: do you think the Patriots are so good at bouncing

72
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 1: back after a loss? You as coach. I'm a player.

73
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: He's a coach, so you know I can ask him.

74
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,200
Speaker 1: You learned a lot about your team after a lot.

75
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 1: What have you noticed about some of the younger receivers

76
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: Jacobe and Nikkiel from how they've responded this week in

77
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:15,880
Speaker 1: practice to you know, some frustrations on offense. I mean,

78
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: everyone's in here and everyone's working hard. Um, you know,

79
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna see how we respond on Sunday, you know,

80
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 1: against a very good opponent. Um, you know that this

81
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: time of year, everyone's good, everyone plays hard, and this

82
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 1: is this is uh the time, the time of year

83
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 1: that you got to start playing your best football. So

84
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 1: that's what we're gonna see. If we're doing special Fulmer

85
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 1: and doing a documentary about him special Folma, did get

86
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: you say a few words about him, Sea Bass, great dude,

87
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: loved him as a teammate. Um, you know it was.

88
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,240
Speaker 1: We were in the same draft class. We hung out

89
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 1: a lot when we were younger, and uh, I'm looking

90
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,599
Speaker 1: forward to seeing it, I guess
