Finishing the game. You know, we had 16 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 2: a we had a strong, strong rally and then kind 17 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 2: of want to not have to be in one of 18 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 2: those situations at the end of the game. So finishing 19 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 2: that up and then just technique and fundamental stuff that 20 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 2: you can always work on. 21 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 3: Were you supposed to bat the ball down at the end. 22 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 4: But do you but. 23 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, I should have that one down. 24 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 4: Now. 25 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 5: As we've been going through training camp, we heard your 26 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 5: name a couple times and then a couple more times, 27 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 5: a lot of times, and then after the preseason game 28 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 5: it sounds like everybody's talking about you. Do you feel 29 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 5: like this is the momentum that you were trying to generate? 30 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I did a pretty good job like not looking 31 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 2: at that stuff. So like, I don't really try not 32 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,960 Speaker 2: to focus on a momentum thing. Just try to make 33 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 2: it like I play the time. That way, you don't 34 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 2: focus on things that, like you know, don't really help 35 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: you doing your job at that specific time. 36 00:01:56,360 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: A lot of Titans fans don't know your story very well. 37 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 1: And it's kind of related to COVID in a way 38 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 1: in terms of you're from Ellacott City, Maryland, Is that right? Yeah, 39 00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: Elega City, okay, And that's a suburb of Baltimore to 40 00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: the to the west. And you play high school football, 41 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: very good lacrosse player for shit it did you think 42 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: about playing lacrosse in college? 43 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 2: I did so my freshman year of college. I actually 44 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 2: ended up taking a visit to Maryland for lacrosse before football. So, 45 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 2: I mean, I always wanted to play football in college, 46 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 2: but the lacrosse recruiting deal kind of goes a little 47 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 2: bit earlier. They've changed that a little bit, but so 48 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 2: I thought for a little bit of time that that 49 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: might be, you know, like a way to get my. 50 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 3: Foot in the door. 51 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 2: And then eventually, when I realized I could, I could 52 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 2: do football, I didn't necessarily have to do lacrosse, then 53 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,839 Speaker 2: I was kind of full war on the football deal. 54 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: Okay, so you go to Maryland three years ye, get 55 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:57,520 Speaker 1: a degree, yes, sir, And during COVID you decide to 56 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: leave Maryland. 57 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 3: Yep. Now take me through the decision. 58 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: You're from the Baltimore area, You're playing in College Park, 59 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 1: friends and family there, and at that moment, I would 60 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: imagine that's more than a football decision in terms of 61 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: the difficulty in making it, especially at that moment in time. 62 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred percent. I was. 63 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm thirty five minutes from the campus, so 64 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 2: my family is able to come to every game. My 65 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 2: girlfriend was able to come every game we live growing up, 66 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 2: We're fifteen minutes apart. So I thought, first second I 67 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: might have to leave her, and I ended up coming 68 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 2: and living with me and all miss which that was awesome. 69 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 2: But yeah, that was a hard decision. It was definitely 70 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,119 Speaker 2: not an easy one. 71 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 5: But also gave you a lot of real life experience. 72 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 5: I would presume, how has that helped you as your 73 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 5: career has gone on that you made that choice ultimately, Yeah, that. 74 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 2: Was definitely helpful. I mean, I looked out, I have 75 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 2: like an awesome support system, so they definitely helped me 76 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,839 Speaker 2: make that decision. Kind of let it be my own, 77 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 2: but we're there to kind of funnel me. But I 78 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 2: think it definitely prepared me because I'd never lived away 79 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 2: from home. So I packed all my stuff in the car, 80 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: drove fourteen hours to Oxford, Mississippi, like lived on my 81 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 2: own for a little bit before my girlfriend came down. 82 00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 2: So like a new place, a new team, new staff, 83 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 2: like the whole the whole deal, which is pretty much 84 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: what happens when you come to the league. So it's 85 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 2: a little bit of a trial run. So I think, 86 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 2: like looking back on it, that's something that I thought 87 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: that I was like trying to prepare for. But you know, 88 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 2: in hindsight, I think it was definitely a good thing 89 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 2: for me. 90 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: You weren't able to visit Old Miss before you picked 91 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: Old Miss. 92 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 2: Noah, Now, first time I saw it was when I 93 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 2: got there. 94 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 4: That's wild. 95 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, strange because of the COVID situation. So and 96 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: then I had to finish up graduating that spring, so 97 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: I technically was still still at Maryland at that time. 98 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 2: So I I think that was like kind of some 99 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:47,239 Speaker 2: eligibility or I don't know. Those kind of deals were tricky, 100 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: so I wasn't able to go down Wow. 101 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 4: That's wild. 102 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 5: So ultimately, as you're going through your playing, you have 103 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 5: a great career at Old Miss. 104 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 4: I mean you really had a season. 105 00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, you had a remarkable season the time that you 106 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,239 Speaker 5: were was there ever a part of you that thought, 107 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 5: maybe I'll do this again? 108 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 2: I kind of when I when I went down there, 109 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 2: I had the idea that it would be a one 110 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 2: season deal. That was kind of like my my hope 111 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: kind of like I said earlier, I tried not to 112 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 2: put the car before the horse. 113 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 3: I was just focusing. 114 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 2: On what I was doing one day at a time, 115 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 2: and that was like I had a ton of fun. 116 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 2: So it was like pretty easy to do because it 117 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: was a it was a really good time being down there. 118 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 2: Now at the end of that, it was like a 119 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 2: little bit of another one of those decisions you had 120 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 2: to lean on family and that whole deal. But I 121 00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 2: was kind of hoping it was going to be a 122 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:31,279 Speaker 2: one year situation. 123 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 1: So he goes down there, one hundred and nine tackles, 124 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: twelve and a half for lost, six secs, three forced fumbles. 125 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,840 Speaker 1: It's a big year in the sec for a backer. 126 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: And then you go to the combine run four six, five, 127 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: thirty nine and a half inch vertical job, ten seven 128 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: broad job. I mean the you ace the combine too, 129 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 1: appreciate that. So you end up going in the sixth 130 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: round to the Titans. Did two part question did you 131 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 1: think you would go earlier than that? And where the 132 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: Titans the team you thought it would pick? 133 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 2: You had I had a good meeting with them, so 134 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 2: I had hoped that that would be a would be 135 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 2: a team. I thought that that was like would be 136 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 2: a good fit. So I was excited about that. But 137 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: it was like one of the situations where so much 138 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 2: it was out of your control. So I tried not 139 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: to put too many expectations on it. So from position 140 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 2: to position in the draft to where you go, So 141 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,120 Speaker 2: I tried It's a lot easier said than done. But 142 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,040 Speaker 2: whenever I had this thoughts pop up, I try to 143 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: kind of bury you. 144 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 5: So then you come out to the Tennessee Titans, and 145 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 5: that's where things get really interesting. 146 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 4: Mike, do you have the rundown here? 147 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 3: I've got the run down. 148 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 4: Mike's got the rundown. 149 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 1: Okay, So your rookie year, you go on I r 150 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,320 Speaker 1: two days before the season opener with a knee injury. 151 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 3: When did that actually happen. 152 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: Four days before the first game? 153 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 3: Happened in practice? 154 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 2: Happened in practice? 155 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:47,679 Speaker 3: Yeah?

Yeah. Tough grade. Yeah, yeah, yes, 165 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 3: an exceedingly tough break. How hard was the year. 166 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: Basically being away from the football team when the previous 167 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,080 Speaker 1: two years had been so strange in so many ways. 168 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,160 Speaker 2: It was different. I definitely took me a minute to 169 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: frame it in the right way so that it was positive, 170 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: which was like and it took me some time to 171 00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 2: get to that, to that mind frame. But you know, 172 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 2: I've said a couple of times I was I'm really 173 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: lucky to have the family that I do, so they 174 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 2: leaned on them a lot because I kind of needed 175 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 2: it at that time. 176 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 3: So you come back. You're not one hundred percent though. 177 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 2: Right, I mean, anytime you're on the field, you try 178 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 2: to tell yourself you're a hundred percent. 179 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 3: Could have been bit better. 180 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: So you got waived at the end of camp twenty 181 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:51,080 Speaker 1: twenty three side to the practice squad. You're promoted within 182 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: three weeks, you play against Cleveland, Cincinnati, Indianapolis, and against 183 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: Baltimore and then the Titans need a roster spot and 184 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: so you're waved again. Right after London signed back to 185 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: the practice squad and finally you come back, it's like, okay, 186 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: here we go going to Tampa. You're activated, and then 187 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: what happens in warm ups. 188 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:21,480 Speaker 2: Go through warm ups, feeling feeling good, excited to get back, 189 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 2: get dinged up and down for the game, and end 190 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 2: up being down for the year. 191 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 3: Wow, yeah, how are you mentally through all of this? 192 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 2: It was tough, you know, But I think I had 193 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 2: a brother when of my brothers say something one time, 194 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 2: it's like, the the hardest thing that ever happened to 195 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:39,920 Speaker 2: you is the hardest thing that ever happened to you. 196 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,679 Speaker 2: And that was tough, but it wasn't the hardest thing 197 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: that ever happened to me. So just like kind of 198 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 2: step back, and you know, people have a lot bigger 199 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: problems than that, and it's all fixable, you know what 200 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,559 Speaker 2: I mean. So it's like kind of it happens, it's 201 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 2: like what do you do now? So you know, you 202 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 2: sit on and you kind of feel bad for yourself 203 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 2: for a couple of days and then you're like, all right, 204 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 2: well what do I do now? 205 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 5: So coming into this train in camp, have you had 206 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 5: to maintain that same level of kind of perspective I 207 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 5: guess on everything that's happening throughout the whole kind of 208 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 5: off season, preseason training camp processed. 209 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think probably the biggest perspective shift And then 210 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 2: it might be a tough forward saying shift. But is 211 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 2: I love football? Like love football since I can remember, 212 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 2: and I never felt like I took the game for granted. 213 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 2: But one thing that I didn't realize is that like 214 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 2: at some point you you won't play. And I never 215 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 2: thought I was really lucky that I was pretty healthy 216 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 2: through most of my career. So you get to a 217 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 2: point where you think you're a guy who just like, 218 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 2: you know, I don't get injured. Yeah, it's just like 219 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 2: it's silly, but you know, you get to a certain 220 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 2: point and you're fortunate enough for so long that you 221 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 2: kind of start to believe it. So you kind of 222 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: realize every time you get to go to practice, every 223 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 2: time you get to go to walk through, every time 224 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 2: you get to go to lyft and not have anything 225 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 2: be you know, altered, like it's a it's really a blessing. 226 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 2: So just kind of trying to enjoy that, you know. 227 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: And I thought that I enjoyed it before, and I did, 228 00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 2: but just like just being a little bit more grate 229 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:00,480 Speaker 2: before it. 230 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 3: When did you know you roll the way back? 231 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: Kind of like I said earlier, I think whenever you decide, 232 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 2: you know, when the medical staff comes together and they're like, 233 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 2: all right, you can go out on the field. If 234 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 2: you're on the field, you're one hundred percent. So like 235 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 2: I think that one of the tough parts is telling 236 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 2: yourself oh, I'm ninety or eighty five, ninety five. So 237 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 2: I think anytime that I go on the field, you know, 238 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 2: I think it's some one time it's all right, then 239 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 2: maybe lie to yourself, but early on in that process, 240 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 2: like you don't want to fall victim to being unsure 241 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,920 Speaker 2: of where you are physically. So if you step on 242 00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 2: the field, just you know you're one hundred percent. 243 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 5: One thing that this has given you is a lot 244 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 5: of experience in staying mentally engaged even when you can't 245 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 5: physically participate. Do you think that's giving you a leg 246 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 5: up now? 247 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 3: I think it's helpful. 248 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 2: I think you kind of if you want to find 249 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 2: the good and something, you will. If you want to 250 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 2: find the bad and something, you will. So I think 251 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,599 Speaker 2: when you're in those situations, if you there's still a 252 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 2: lot that you can do. I think that's like tough 253 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 2: to tell yourself at times. But you know, when you 254 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,559 Speaker 2: sit down, it's not like it's not like I can't 255 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:58,319 Speaker 2: look at film, it's not like I can't watch practice, 256 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,680 Speaker 2: it's not like I can't do other stuff with other 257 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 2: parts of my body. So I think it's you know, 258 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 2: giving you some perspective on what else that you can do. 259 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 2: I think that's helpful. 260 00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: Why have you clicked so well with linebacker coach Frank Bush. 261 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 2: He's a great guy, he's awesome, he's real. He tells 262 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,119 Speaker 2: you what it is. There's not a whole lot of sugarcoating. 263 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 2: He's huge on technique and fundamentals, which is cool because 264 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 2: it you know, he drives the point home of like, 265 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 2: you know, progress, not being perfect, but just getting better. 266 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:28,560 Speaker 2: And I think that's like something that's fun to latch onto. 267 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 5: In this defense, one of the things that everybody talks 268 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 5: about is that everybody gets the opportunity to make plays. 269 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 5: Is that something that you have discovered and that maybe 270 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 5: you really enjoy about this defense? 271 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's fun. I think making plays is 272 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 2: fun and it's cool because it's one of those deals 273 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 2: where you know, you you know the way that it's 274 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 2: drawn up. He might not feel like it's your time 275 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 2: to make a play, but like it can. It can 276 00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 2: always be like you go and do your job and 277 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 2: you got ten other guys doing it. Like there's always 278 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 2: an opportunity to make a play, and that's pretty neat. 279 00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: We hate to give the Ravens any credit, but since 280 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: you grew up there I know you've probably watched a 281 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: little Ravens football as a young man. Getting to play 282 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: this style of defense as a linebacker, it's almost Ravens like, 283 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: isn't it. 284 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty neat because I. 285 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 3: Mean, you guys are going downhill from the jump. 286 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, No, it's fun. There's definitely been a couple 287 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,000 Speaker 2: of times where I've had some flashbacks and been like, oh, 288 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:26,040 Speaker 2: this is pretty neat. 289 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: We know you need to get back to work, but 290 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 1: this is our first chance to really get to talk 291 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: to you because of coming out of COVID, because of injuries, 292 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 1: because of different things that have happened, and you've obviously 293 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,320 Speaker 1: seen a lot of stuff over the last four years 294 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: or just short of twenty five. 295 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 3: But I would guess there are. 296 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: Two feelings in you stay balanced and stay consistent, realize 297 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 1: every day is the job interview because of what you've 298 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,319 Speaker 1: been through, but also maybe this has all come together 299 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 1: for you at the right time. 300 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 3: Would both be correct? Yeah? 301 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 2: I think kind of the the narrative deal might be 302 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 2: a little bit more on like your guys aside, So 303 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 2: mind just kind of like enjoy the day, get one 304 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 2: at a time.
