<v Speaker 4>Nothing serious. Yeah, he's fine.

0:00:56.880 --> 0:00:57.600

0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:06.080
<v Speaker 6>have you seen, what have you liked?

0:01:06.120 --> 0:01:07.360
<v Speaker 7>And where do you feel like you need to.

0:01:07.319 --> 0:01:07.839
<v Speaker 2>Grow the most?

0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:10.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean you know, there, there's there, it's a

0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 4>it's a it's kind of a it's a time for

0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:17.600
<v Speaker 4>for reaping. I guess you know, I mean you're planting,

0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:20.039
<v Speaker 4>you know this, just work on everything you're planning, seeds

0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:24.000
<v Speaker 4>and everything you do offense, defense, special teams, individual technique,

0:01:24.200 --> 0:01:28.640
<v Speaker 4>situational football, field position football, all the different things. You're

0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:31.480
<v Speaker 4>just working all the time to try to plan as

0:01:31.520 --> 0:01:33.479
<v Speaker 4>well as you can as much as you can, try

0:01:33.520 --> 0:01:34.959
<v Speaker 4>to do some weeding, you know, and get to get

0:01:34.959 --> 0:01:37.040
<v Speaker 4>the mistakes out as much as you can, and really

0:01:37.040 --> 0:01:39.440
<v Speaker 4>prepare for training camp. That's really what you're doing right now.

0:01:39.520 --> 0:01:41.400
<v Speaker 4>So I feel really great about it. I mean, I

0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:45.680
<v Speaker 4>think the guys have been intention Intentionality has been has

0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:49.520
<v Speaker 4>been a real big message in this offseason. We're trying

0:01:49.560 --> 0:01:52.280
<v Speaker 4>to be intentional about everything we do. Understand what we do,

0:01:52.320 --> 0:01:54.880
<v Speaker 4>we do it for a reason, uh, and then understand

0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:55.440
<v Speaker 4>what the reason is.

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:56.960
<v Speaker 2>And I think they really take it out. I believe,

0:01:57.280 --> 0:01:58.200
<v Speaker 2>I believe they've really.

0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:00.240
<v Speaker 4>Taken it to heart, you know that really try to

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:01.520
<v Speaker 4>do that, and when you do, that makes for a

0:02:01.520 --> 0:02:04.000
<v Speaker 4>better practice. So I feel really good about the practices.

0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 4>There's lots of things to work on, and you know,

0:02:07.400 --> 0:02:10.639
<v Speaker 4>but they're they're in there plowing the field every single day.

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 8>Johanadza Isaac is a guy that I mean, I know

0:02:15.800 --> 0:02:17.160
<v Speaker 8>you were high on him when he drafted and he

0:02:17.200 --> 0:02:19.799
<v Speaker 8>kind of last year was a loss of season. What

0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:21.639
<v Speaker 8>what do you see from him so far now and

0:02:21.720 --> 0:02:22.040
<v Speaker 8>what do you.

0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:24.280
<v Speaker 2>Kind of see him for the season. Yeah, he looks good.

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:25.840
<v Speaker 2>He's been in the weight room. He's he kind of

0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:26.640
<v Speaker 2>he lost weight.

0:02:26.919 --> 0:02:28.959
<v Speaker 4>Uh, guy kind of trimmed up and we did a

0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:31.240
<v Speaker 4>lot of movement stuff and then he came back. He

0:02:31.240 --> 0:02:33.920
<v Speaker 4>started putting them back on the muscle mass a little bit.

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.200
<v Speaker 4>So he's he's about probably where you want him now

0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:40.040
<v Speaker 4>and moving really well. Uh, really doing a good job

0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:42.679
<v Speaker 4>in practice. He looks good to me, so it there'll

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:44.280
<v Speaker 4>be time after this mini camp to see him in

0:02:44.320 --> 0:02:45.600
<v Speaker 4>pads and all that and see how he does.

0:02:45.639 --> 0:02:47.320
<v Speaker 2>But I expect him to play really well.

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:50.119
<v Speaker 4>I mean, he's talented and he looks he looked good

0:02:50.240 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 4>at this point.

0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:54.799
<v Speaker 3>It seems like he's going to place.

0:02:58.480 --> 0:02:58.959
<v Speaker 2>What do you think?

0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:01.200
<v Speaker 5>Hell just I mean, obviously this would.

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:02.519
<v Speaker 3>Be put you know when you have a guy that

0:03:02.760 --> 0:03:05.560
<v Speaker 3>keep well, what does that kind of well?

0:03:05.600 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 4>I mean I would expect it to be honest with you,

0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:08.639
<v Speaker 4>you know. I mean if I'm if I'm a running

0:03:08.639 --> 0:03:10.720
<v Speaker 4>back or I'm a skilled player, I want the ball,

0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:13.440
<v Speaker 4>you know, and now they moved that touch back back

0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:15.680
<v Speaker 4>to the thirty five up to the thirty five, right,

0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:18.240
<v Speaker 4>So I'm pretty sure that people are gonna put give

0:03:18.280 --> 0:03:19.840
<v Speaker 4>the guys a chance to return it. So I'm sure

0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:22.000
<v Speaker 4>he's aware of that and he wants the ball in

0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:23.760
<v Speaker 4>his hands. So if we have a guy who doesn't

0:03:23.760 --> 0:03:26.000
<v Speaker 4>want the ball in his hands, it's a perceiver, a

0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:29.920
<v Speaker 4>tight end, running back or a quarterback that now you know,

0:03:30.000 --> 0:03:34.240
<v Speaker 4>then they're what are we doing? So but he'll be

0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 4>good at too. One thing we did learn last year,

0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:41.000
<v Speaker 4>running backs with a new setup have really kind of thrived,

0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:44.160
<v Speaker 4>you know, for whatever reason. So you know, we've got

0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:46.280
<v Speaker 4>some guys be thinking to it, Keaton being one of them.

0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 9>What have you seen from TJ, Tampa and OTAs.

0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 8>What are your expectations or hopes for him going into

0:03:50.960 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 8>the season after not playing as much as probably would

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:53.480
<v Speaker 8>have liked luster.

0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:55.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, well, you know, he's been healthy. You know, that

0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:57.080
<v Speaker 4>wasn't the case last year. He came in with the

0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 4>groin type situation to get surgery on, so that's been

0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:04.160
<v Speaker 4>a big plus. So the reps are really good for him.

0:04:04.560 --> 0:04:06.800
<v Speaker 4>I've seen a lot of flashes. I mean flashing some

0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:10.880
<v Speaker 4>real good plays, keep chasing the consistency with the technique.

0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:13.880
<v Speaker 4>I think TJ is a young player in the sense

0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 4>that I don't even think sometimes he understands how good

0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:19.599
<v Speaker 4>he is, how talented, how big he is, you know.

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:21.720
<v Speaker 4>So I want him to play big, you know, play

0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:24.680
<v Speaker 4>like a big corner and embrace that as far as

0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 4>his technique. And he's been working on doing that and

0:04:26.800 --> 0:04:28.080
<v Speaker 4>you see it really coming around.

0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:30.360
<v Speaker 9>He's one of the guys who went to Chuck Pagano

0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:32.800
<v Speaker 9>when he first got here, just seeking advice. How valuable

0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:34.479
<v Speaker 9>is a simple question. But how valuable is to have

0:04:34.520 --> 0:04:35.880
<v Speaker 9>a guy like Chuck or some for a guy in

0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:36.520
<v Speaker 9>his positions.

0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:37.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh well, yeah, of course.

0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:40.040
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you know, Chuck's a great coach and does

0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:43.120
<v Speaker 4>a great job of these guys experienced. But Chuck, even

0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:44.760
<v Speaker 4>when he was a young coach, he was a great coach.

0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:46.640
<v Speaker 4>I know because I was young then too, you know.

0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:52.840
<v Speaker 4>And he's always been a talented, superstar secondary coach, defensive

0:04:52.880 --> 0:04:54.640
<v Speaker 4>back coach, defensive coach, coach.

0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:58.440
<v Speaker 2>He was a great head coach. So yeah, it's very valuable.

0:04:59.640 --> 0:04:59.839
<v Speaker 10>Camp.

0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:02.760
<v Speaker 9>I've got a lot of young corners in that room.

0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:05.320
<v Speaker 3>It's two high profile guys.

0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:07.120
<v Speaker 6>Available, or you do you like.

0:05:07.040 --> 0:05:09.240
<v Speaker 8>Where you're at as far as your quarterback depth that's

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:11.240
<v Speaker 8>in the building or is that something you guys are

0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:12.800
<v Speaker 8>kind of looking outside.

0:05:12.360 --> 0:05:14.360
<v Speaker 2>The play Well, I mean I really look at it

0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:14.800
<v Speaker 2>as an ore.

0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:16.920
<v Speaker 4>I look at it as an and you know, yes,

0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:19.560
<v Speaker 4>we're happy with the guys we have and I'm very

0:05:19.560 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 4>confident those guys are all going to do well and

0:05:22.400 --> 0:05:24.920
<v Speaker 4>we turn over every stone, you know. So you're always

0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:27.479
<v Speaker 4>interested in in anything you see on the waiver wire

0:05:27.560 --> 0:05:28.200
<v Speaker 4>or anything else.

0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:31.480
<v Speaker 11>John, what have you seen in devontees Walker as he

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 11>heads into your two excuse me, in devontees Walker?

0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:35.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:36.640
<v Speaker 11>What differences have you seen this?

0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:37.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 4>Great question, tz Man. He's just way more confident, you know,

0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:45.280
<v Speaker 4>way more way more certain. You know, when he runs

0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:47.160
<v Speaker 4>a route, you know he's off the ball, he's in

0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 4>his break, he's out of his break, he's upfield, he

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:51.240
<v Speaker 4>goes and gets the ball. Simon Wise, you know, comes

0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:53.920
<v Speaker 4>out of the huddle much more aware just a year in.

0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:55.840
<v Speaker 4>So you know, I want to translate that now to

0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:58.480
<v Speaker 4>the games and the competition, but I expect him to

0:05:58.640 --> 0:05:59.320
<v Speaker 4>do really well.

0:05:59.360 --> 0:06:00.880
<v Speaker 2>He looks good, John.

0:06:00.880 --> 0:06:04.279
<v Speaker 3>That starts getting one episode him. What have you seen

0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:06.400
<v Speaker 3>the Jets least.

0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:07.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, same thing.

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:10.440
<v Speaker 4>He's he's he's pretty very mature player. You know, it's

0:06:10.760 --> 0:06:13.200
<v Speaker 4>the kind of guy that that's why he's the first

0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:14.760
<v Speaker 4>round pick. You know, he's the kind of guy that

0:06:14.800 --> 0:06:16.600
<v Speaker 4>you would expect to be able to step in to

0:06:16.680 --> 0:06:18.640
<v Speaker 4>a role like that. I mean, that's why you draft

0:06:18.720 --> 0:06:21.360
<v Speaker 4>him in the first round. And you know with our

0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:24.440
<v Speaker 4>Darius situation, he got thrust into that situation maybe a

0:06:24.480 --> 0:06:27.560
<v Speaker 4>little sooner than we'd hoped, but he's embraced it, so

0:06:28.080 --> 0:06:29.280
<v Speaker 4>expect him to do very well.

0:06:30.000 --> 0:06:32.599
<v Speaker 12>John Tavie's Robinson had kind of a week last year.

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:34.440
<v Speaker 12>What do you think contributed to that?

0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:36.279
<v Speaker 9>And how do you see the trajectory of the next.

0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:36.960
<v Speaker 10>Two years play again?

0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:39.400
<v Speaker 4>You know, I think contributed to that is what standing

0:06:39.400 --> 0:06:42.279
<v Speaker 4>next to Steve Mashati out here during practice and we

0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:45.880
<v Speaker 4>both were looking at number ninety five Mistavious and he said,

0:06:46.040 --> 0:06:48.840
<v Speaker 4>has he ever missed a practice? I'm like, he's never

0:06:48.880 --> 0:06:51.440
<v Speaker 4>missed anything. He's never missed a practice, he's never missed

0:06:51.480 --> 0:06:53.680
<v Speaker 4>a meeting, he's never missed a lifting session, he's never

0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:56.600
<v Speaker 4>missed a meal. You know, he hasn't missed anything. So

0:06:57.160 --> 0:06:58.840
<v Speaker 4>all he does is and when he goes and does it,

0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:01.679
<v Speaker 4>he does his best, you know, he uh, he works

0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:04.160
<v Speaker 4>hard at everything he does and and it shows up.

0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:06.719
<v Speaker 4>And when he plays, he plays, he plays, he plays

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:07.719
<v Speaker 4>full throttle, you know.

0:07:07.880 --> 0:07:11.000
<v Speaker 2>So I think that's the key. Plus he's big and talented.

0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.440
<v Speaker 11>KI a red star recruit for multiple reasons. Since he's

0:07:15.480 --> 0:07:17.280
<v Speaker 11>gotten here. What are some of those ways that you've

0:07:17.320 --> 0:07:18.480
<v Speaker 11>seen him stand out.

0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:21.160
<v Speaker 4>To that example the level, well, one example, I think

0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:24.880
<v Speaker 4>it's been reported. You know, he was organizing walkthroughs at

0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:26.920
<v Speaker 4>the hotel for the rookies, you know, pretty much the

0:07:26.920 --> 0:07:29.520
<v Speaker 4>whole camp. I think that's pretty cool, you know. And

0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:32.520
<v Speaker 4>he's always on point. He's always he's always he can

0:07:32.560 --> 0:07:34.720
<v Speaker 4>answer any question, you know, in a meeting, and you know,

0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:36.240
<v Speaker 4>we may we may be back there and say he

0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:38.680
<v Speaker 4>all right, Malachi, and you throw a situation at him

0:07:38.680 --> 0:07:41.440
<v Speaker 4>and he knows, you know, he's been studying, comes prepared

0:07:42.000 --> 0:07:45.080
<v Speaker 4>and uh, and I don't again, I mean, I'm sure

0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:47.480
<v Speaker 4>he's made a mistake or two maybe with some minor

0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:50.200
<v Speaker 4>leverage things, but I've never seen him make a real,

0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:51.280
<v Speaker 4>a real mistake.

0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:51.600
<v Speaker 2>Yet.

0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:56.240
<v Speaker 4>You know, he's he's he's uh, very very much a pro,

0:07:56.400 --> 0:07:59.120
<v Speaker 4>probably way advanced beyond his years in terms of being

0:07:59.120 --> 0:07:59.560
<v Speaker 4>a pro.

0:08:01.440 --> 0:08:03.120
<v Speaker 9>Sitting on the safeties. I mean, what have you seen

0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:04.880
<v Speaker 9>the probably from sin new seeking so far?

0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:07.440
<v Speaker 4>You know, well, I saw him flashing today. You saw

0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 4>it too, right, flying around, showing up where he's supposed

0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:12.560
<v Speaker 4>to show up. I think he's taking big step, you know,

0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:15.120
<v Speaker 4>this year. It's starting to look like he could be

0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:16.640
<v Speaker 4>that guy, maybe play that.

0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:17.679
<v Speaker 2>Role as the third safety.

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:20.160
<v Speaker 4>Perhaps got a long way to go still, but he's

0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:21.960
<v Speaker 4>looking like he's got a shot.

0:08:22.440 --> 0:08:25.640
<v Speaker 3>A lot of bigger they get one gast catching that.

0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 3>You know, they got a couple of fuel of them

0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:27.800
<v Speaker 3>out there.

0:08:27.840 --> 0:08:30.120
<v Speaker 2>But the interview like giving.

0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:33.040
<v Speaker 9>Him when you have you know, as far as flexibility

0:08:33.080 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 9>and having two guys that.

0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:36.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean, I Charlie helped me catches to Charlie

0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:38.200
<v Speaker 4>have today, but height didn't he you know, he had

0:08:38.240 --> 0:08:40.560
<v Speaker 4>a bunch of catches today. So you know, Charlie doesn't

0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:42.360
<v Speaker 4>want to hear about two pass catching tight ends. He

0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:44.320
<v Speaker 4>wants to hear about three. And we got a couple

0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:46.280
<v Speaker 4>other guys in there, and he wants to hear about four.

0:08:46.320 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 4>You know, So I just you know, as many guys

0:08:48.920 --> 0:08:52.120
<v Speaker 4>that you can that the quarterback can be confident and

0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:54.040
<v Speaker 4>throwing the ball to and knowing they're gonna make a play.

0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:56.960
<v Speaker 4>I think that just makes you just way more, way

0:08:56.960 --> 0:08:57.640
<v Speaker 4>more dangerous.

0:09:00.880 --> 0:09:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Next up here is pass rush coach Chuck Smith. He

0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:07.880
<v Speaker 1>works with the outside linebackers, the inside linebackers, defensive line,

0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:08.920
<v Speaker 1>he works with everybody.

0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:10.280
<v Speaker 9>Here's Chuck Smith.

0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:14.120
<v Speaker 3>Off season.

0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:16.480
<v Speaker 12>How do you think that's going to contribute to his game?

0:09:16.640 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 12>And how are you working him on? How are you

0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:19.280
<v Speaker 12>working with him on incorporate?

0:09:21.240 --> 0:09:23.199
<v Speaker 10>I think it's just the evolution of Adafe. I think

0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:25.640
<v Speaker 10>he's grown up. You know, he's you know, a guy

0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:27.880
<v Speaker 10>who always had a lot of muscle in his body.

0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:29.480
<v Speaker 10>But I think it's one of those things that he

0:09:29.600 --> 0:09:33.359
<v Speaker 10>realized that with his size, with his speed and as athleticability,

0:09:33.360 --> 0:09:34.520
<v Speaker 10>that he can put them more weight. And you know,

0:09:34.559 --> 0:09:36.640
<v Speaker 10>the more weight you can, the faster you generate power,

0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:40.040
<v Speaker 10>with the ability to still have flexibility, ben and all

0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:42.160
<v Speaker 10>this other things. I think it was a natural growth

0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:48.120
<v Speaker 10>for him, you know, to do for his career game.

0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:50.679
<v Speaker 11>I'm sure what were the things that you wanted to

0:09:50.679 --> 0:09:52.920
<v Speaker 11>work on going into off season. Where do you see

0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:53.440
<v Speaker 11>him at now?

0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:55.600
<v Speaker 10>Well as far as the things that I can control

0:09:55.640 --> 0:09:57.640
<v Speaker 10>from a pass rur standpoint, you know, we want to

0:09:57.679 --> 0:09:59.400
<v Speaker 10>get him on the field, you know, really get him going,

0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:01.680
<v Speaker 10>you know, So he's working really it's almost like his

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:03.480
<v Speaker 10>first year for him when you look at it, because

0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:05.080
<v Speaker 10>he didn't get a chance to do a lot of stuff.

0:10:05.200 --> 0:10:06.680
<v Speaker 10>But one of the things that a DCE has worked

0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:09.200
<v Speaker 10>really hard on is he's understanding the defense.

0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:09.960
<v Speaker 3>That's the first thing.

0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:13.120
<v Speaker 10>So from that standpoint, he's working on understanding the defense.

0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:15.679
<v Speaker 10>You know, he's in good shape, is having a good

0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:18.120
<v Speaker 10>get off, he's working hard in his coverage, all the

0:10:18.120 --> 0:10:19.920
<v Speaker 10>different things that you want a guy to do. DCEs

0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:22.560
<v Speaker 10>working super hard, you know, And we're excited about him,

0:10:22.600 --> 0:10:23.840
<v Speaker 10>and I can't wait to see when we put the

0:10:23.880 --> 0:10:26.280
<v Speaker 10>pads on, you know, in camp and get after and

0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:28.880
<v Speaker 10>that's gonna be really the measuring stick of where he's at.

0:10:29.440 --> 0:10:32.440
<v Speaker 8>There was a lot about a lot of chatter about

0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:34.440
<v Speaker 8>Mike Green when the Ravens and drafting run you we're

0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:37.200
<v Speaker 8>excited about picking him up. What did you see from

0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:40.080
<v Speaker 8>him on tape free drafting? How is that translations what

0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:40.679
<v Speaker 8>you've seen here?

0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:43.400
<v Speaker 10>Well, the first thing I saw Mike Green was effort

0:10:43.800 --> 0:10:45.480
<v Speaker 10>guy who runs to the ball. And if you've watched

0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:48.760
<v Speaker 10>him out here. Mike Green runs to the ball every

0:10:48.800 --> 0:10:50.599
<v Speaker 10>play and that you don't have to coach him on.

0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:52.079
<v Speaker 10>That's one of the best things when you get to

0:10:52.120 --> 0:10:53.880
<v Speaker 10>be a pro. You shouldn't have to coach effort. And

0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:55.600
<v Speaker 10>a lot of guys that come out of college, you know,

0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:56.720
<v Speaker 10>you say, let's go, let's go.

0:10:56.840 --> 0:10:57.840
<v Speaker 3>You know, got to push him.

0:10:57.920 --> 0:10:59.840
<v Speaker 10>That's one of the first things I saw on Mike Green.

0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:03.000
<v Speaker 3>And then he's coachable. You know, he wants to learn.

0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.200
<v Speaker 10>He's in there asking questions with Matt and Dennis when

0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:07.400
<v Speaker 10>we're all combined, as far as as a defensive front,

0:11:07.440 --> 0:11:09.959
<v Speaker 10>when we're all together in the room, and that's another

0:11:09.960 --> 0:11:12.320
<v Speaker 10>thing that stands out in him. He's super smart, you know,

0:11:12.400 --> 0:11:15.319
<v Speaker 10>and picking up the defense. And you know, I give

0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:16.960
<v Speaker 10>Mike a lot of credit he comes out here. Mike

0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:19.840
<v Speaker 10>has heavy hands. He doesn't turn down reps and heavy hands.

0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:22.360
<v Speaker 10>He puts hands on guys. He's shown that he has

0:11:22.400 --> 0:11:24.360
<v Speaker 10>the ability to you know, strike blocks. And you know,

0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:26.400
<v Speaker 10>in this again, we're not you know, all out and

0:11:26.440 --> 0:11:28.559
<v Speaker 10>all that to be seen again when we get into camp.

0:11:29.080 --> 0:11:31.880
<v Speaker 10>But as far as Mike doing everything we ask, he's

0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:34.640
<v Speaker 10>doing it. And from a past us standpoint, Mike is

0:11:34.760 --> 0:11:37.240
<v Speaker 10>very you know, he's skilled up. You know, give him credit,

0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:39.400
<v Speaker 10>give him school a lot of credit, and his coach

0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:42.200
<v Speaker 10>in college at Marshall and probably Virginia. You know, Mike,

0:11:42.400 --> 0:11:45.320
<v Speaker 10>he can cross shop Mike and spind Mike and ghosts.

0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:48.360
<v Speaker 10>But you know, from that standpoint, you know, Mike is

0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:52.480
<v Speaker 10>the best example of this new generation that have learned

0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:55.240
<v Speaker 10>like from the pros, and he comes in already really

0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:57.360
<v Speaker 10>highly skilled up, so you know, give him a lot

0:11:57.400 --> 0:12:00.760
<v Speaker 10>of credit. I mean, Mike is get off just amazed

0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:02.680
<v Speaker 10>that you know, he's in his base two point stance.

0:12:02.720 --> 0:12:04.959
<v Speaker 10>He has no false steps. You know, he gets off

0:12:04.960 --> 0:12:07.079
<v Speaker 10>on the ball fast. So I can't say enough about

0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:10.560
<v Speaker 10>Mike so far. You know, now we put the pads on.

0:12:10.640 --> 0:12:12.520
<v Speaker 10>So the Mike Green that we've seen so far as

0:12:12.600 --> 0:12:14.200
<v Speaker 10>everything that we thought he would be.

0:12:14.600 --> 0:12:16.360
<v Speaker 3>You know, when we decided to draft.

0:12:16.200 --> 0:12:18.960
<v Speaker 9>Him around this time last year, you called Tavius Robinson.

0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:21.600
<v Speaker 9>I think it was like a glass eater Clarius. Where

0:12:21.600 --> 0:12:23.800
<v Speaker 9>you've seen him take steps since then? And what are

0:12:23.800 --> 0:12:25.520
<v Speaker 9>your hopes and expectations for him this year?

0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:31.080
<v Speaker 10>Listen, Tavia's Robinson doesn't get enough credit because Tavia's Robinson

0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:34.680
<v Speaker 10>is one of our center pieces. He's not just a

0:12:34.720 --> 0:12:38.640
<v Speaker 10>guy who you know he came up. He's a overachiever. No, No,

0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:42.200
<v Speaker 10>Tavia's Robinson. When you look at from an organization standpoint,

0:12:43.000 --> 0:12:45.760
<v Speaker 10>I believe in speaking for organization, I shouldn't be, but

0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:48.880
<v Speaker 10>I think they'll always agree. Tavis Robinson's everything you look

0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:52.800
<v Speaker 10>for in a Baltimore Raven. Every day, Tavy's Robinson showed up.

0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:56.600
<v Speaker 10>And this is not me exaggerating. He sits in the front,

0:12:56.720 --> 0:13:01.160
<v Speaker 10>he takes notes, he plays hard. He's taking more snaps

0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:04.200
<v Speaker 10>than anybody here since I've been here. In practice, he

0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:07.360
<v Speaker 10>works after practice. You know, he's a good person. He

0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:12.200
<v Speaker 10>got that dog in them. And what he's really worked on,

0:13:12.360 --> 0:13:15.240
<v Speaker 10>really hard we've worked on is Tavy's Robinson now is

0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:16.840
<v Speaker 10>going to be a I believe, a bone to fire

0:13:16.880 --> 0:13:19.000
<v Speaker 10>pass rusher and he has an opportunity to have a

0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:22.439
<v Speaker 10>breakout season. I mean, you know, Tavius Robinson came out

0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:24.079
<v Speaker 10>at Coyles, he ran a four to six. But then

0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:26.560
<v Speaker 10>also being in fairness to how it works, Tavia sitting

0:13:26.559 --> 0:13:28.160
<v Speaker 10>a part of the rush group. You know what I mean,

0:13:28.360 --> 0:13:30.960
<v Speaker 10>Doff and he had Jadevion. You know you had Kyle,

0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:33.199
<v Speaker 10>you know you had those guys, and those are double

0:13:33.240 --> 0:13:35.479
<v Speaker 10>digit sackers, you know what I mean, guys who've had careers.

0:13:35.320 --> 0:13:37.320
<v Speaker 3>So he's not getting those reps.

0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:39.760
<v Speaker 10>So if Tavi's Robinson had two hundred and fifty pass

0:13:39.800 --> 0:13:42.960
<v Speaker 10>reps a year, he gets seven, eight nine sacks. It's

0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:45.680
<v Speaker 10>just about the numbers. But Tavi's Robinson is everything you

0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:48.520
<v Speaker 10>look for. He's gonna be a good rusher. He's adding

0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:51.719
<v Speaker 10>rush moves in his repertoire. He's got power. But make

0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:55.719
<v Speaker 10>no bones about it, Tavy's Robinson is a centerpiece in

0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:59.920
<v Speaker 10>our defensive front for what he does and moving forward.

0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:02.040
<v Speaker 9>I know you work listening against the linebackers, but I

0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:05.199
<v Speaker 9>know also through reputations intensive ye company also for advice

0:14:05.240 --> 0:14:07.360
<v Speaker 9>all the time. Talk a little bit about Travis Jonsen,

0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:08.600
<v Speaker 9>agains chas Peble's.

0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:09.280
<v Speaker 3>Rights and what they can do.

0:14:09.559 --> 0:14:12.679
<v Speaker 10>Okay, all right, first let me answer something to make

0:14:12.720 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 10>something clear. I'm the past rush coach. I'm not the

0:14:16.120 --> 0:14:18.560
<v Speaker 10>outside linebacker coach. I'm not the defensive line coach. What

0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:21.760
<v Speaker 10>I am is I oversee the pass rush from the

0:14:21.800 --> 0:14:25.280
<v Speaker 10>defensive line, the outside linebackers, the linebackers, as well as

0:14:25.280 --> 0:14:26.600
<v Speaker 10>the development of the secondary.

0:14:26.760 --> 0:14:27.880
<v Speaker 3>So that's how it works. Now.

0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:31.160
<v Speaker 10>So Matt Robinson's outside linebackers. Dennis Johnson is the linebackers.

0:14:31.200 --> 0:14:33.640
<v Speaker 10>We all work together called a defensive front. There's three

0:14:33.680 --> 0:14:37.200
<v Speaker 10>of us along with Megan Rosberg and Andrew Rogan. It's

0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:39.480
<v Speaker 10>really four of us who really put it together. So

0:14:39.720 --> 0:14:41.360
<v Speaker 10>you know, you kind of understand the context of what

0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:43.440
<v Speaker 10>I'm saying. So I do get a chance to work

0:14:43.480 --> 0:14:46.560
<v Speaker 10>with everybody. Now Travis Jones, so I can answer you

0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:50.320
<v Speaker 10>a question. Travis Jones is a fantastic Travis Jones is

0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:53.320
<v Speaker 10>a is a pass rusher that I'll put him out

0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:55.760
<v Speaker 10>there one on one with ninety five percent of the

0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:57.480
<v Speaker 10>offensive guards in the league and they can't block him.

0:14:57.680 --> 0:15:00.120
<v Speaker 10>Travis Jones is getting ready to be one of the

0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:03.080
<v Speaker 10>best interior rushers in the game. Last year, when he

0:15:03.120 --> 0:15:05.840
<v Speaker 10>was healthy, he was one of the best interior rushers

0:15:05.880 --> 0:15:08.600
<v Speaker 10>in the game. The film doesn't lie, nor do the

0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:13.280
<v Speaker 10>respect he has from the other teams. Uh, Travis Jones has.

0:15:13.480 --> 0:15:14.240
<v Speaker 3>He's skilled up.

0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:16.480
<v Speaker 10>And one of the things when I first got here

0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:18.080
<v Speaker 10>we talked about some of the people that were here.

0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:18.920
<v Speaker 3>We talked about everybody.

0:15:18.960 --> 0:15:21.120
<v Speaker 10>We want everybody to have a skill, whether you're big,

0:15:21.160 --> 0:15:24.120
<v Speaker 10>you're small, you're a cornerback of linebacker. When everybody has

0:15:24.120 --> 0:15:28.120
<v Speaker 10>skilled Travis Jones has multiple moves and he does a

0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:30.360
<v Speaker 10>chop drive, he can do a hump, he can do

0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:35.280
<v Speaker 10>long arms, he can do everything Travis Jones. If things

0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:37.360
<v Speaker 10>go the way I see it for Travis Jones and

0:15:37.440 --> 0:15:39.640
<v Speaker 10>the way I think the overview of our team goes,

0:15:39.840 --> 0:15:41.760
<v Speaker 10>Travis Jones has a chance to be a Pro bowler.

0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:44.160
<v Speaker 10>He's as good as any defensive line of noseguard in

0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:46.600
<v Speaker 10>the National Football League. And I think this year, when

0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:49.000
<v Speaker 10>he stays healthy entire season, I think he'll prove it

0:15:49.040 --> 0:15:49.360
<v Speaker 10>and put.

0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:49.760
<v Speaker 3>It on tape.

0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:53.400
<v Speaker 7>Jones David Joba to me, he spent a lot of

0:15:53.400 --> 0:15:56.400
<v Speaker 7>time here, the off'son working, m has a few years

0:15:56.480 --> 0:15:59.280
<v Speaker 7>under his bell opously highly skilled. What do you see

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:01.880
<v Speaker 7>from here and what's the Key's got a a lot

0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 7>of potential.

0:16:02.920 --> 0:16:05.000
<v Speaker 10>Well, I think the first thing is Jobo last year

0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:06.560
<v Speaker 10>was pretty much the first year he was healthy. You

0:16:06.560 --> 0:16:08.520
<v Speaker 10>know that when you think about it, that's part of it.

0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:10.840
<v Speaker 10>So a lot of times when you're getting healthy, you're

0:16:10.880 --> 0:16:14.080
<v Speaker 10>not necessarily gaining, You're just trying to manage to get

0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:16.200
<v Speaker 10>back to where you started. So now I think this

0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:19.320
<v Speaker 10>offseason he has his platform has raised from the standpoint up,

0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:21.960
<v Speaker 10>he's had a chance to work harder. You know, he

0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:24.040
<v Speaker 10>has a chance to do the different things that it

0:16:24.080 --> 0:16:26.680
<v Speaker 10>takes from the strength standpoint, and he's worked really hard.

0:16:26.760 --> 0:16:27.080
<v Speaker 3>Jobo.

0:16:27.400 --> 0:16:29.880
<v Speaker 10>You know, he plays hard, he competes hard, and you know,

0:16:29.880 --> 0:16:31.760
<v Speaker 10>I'm excited about you know, what he gets a chance

0:16:31.800 --> 0:16:32.400
<v Speaker 10>to do in camp.

0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:34.400
<v Speaker 3>I's curious.

0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:35.960
<v Speaker 12>What would you notice?

0:16:36.000 --> 0:16:38.920
<v Speaker 5>It's different, exact word.

0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:43.600
<v Speaker 2>You know this time heard the baby last time? Stand

0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:44.000
<v Speaker 2>down to you.

0:16:44.400 --> 0:16:46.240
<v Speaker 3>All right, I'm glad. Is this the last question?

0:16:46.600 --> 0:16:48.800
<v Speaker 10>I'm glad this is I was hoping somebody asked me

0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:51.360
<v Speaker 10>this because I was all last year. I was watching

0:16:51.400 --> 0:16:52.920
<v Speaker 10>everybody broadcasting talking.

0:16:53.320 --> 0:16:54.880
<v Speaker 3>I lived it, I walked it. I've seen it.

0:16:55.320 --> 0:16:59.440
<v Speaker 10>I watched this coordinator stand on ten toes. Zach Orr

0:16:59.520 --> 0:17:02.480
<v Speaker 10>is the guy. Zach Orr, I'm telling you is is

0:17:03.320 --> 0:17:05.600
<v Speaker 10>going to be an incredible coordinator.

0:17:05.640 --> 0:17:06.560
<v Speaker 3>And let me tell you why.

0:17:06.760 --> 0:17:10.440
<v Speaker 10>When we were struggling last year, I watched him stand

0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:12.960
<v Speaker 10>in front of these mics every week and talk to y'all.

0:17:13.200 --> 0:17:13.879
<v Speaker 3>He didn't flinch.

0:17:14.359 --> 0:17:16.399
<v Speaker 10>But I also watched them stand in front of the

0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:19.080
<v Speaker 10>room of a room someday. I mean we played after

0:17:19.080 --> 0:17:21.000
<v Speaker 10>the Bengals, it wasn't like we were celebrating because they

0:17:21.320 --> 0:17:23.959
<v Speaker 10>from a defensive standpoint, they did a lot. They had

0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:27.520
<v Speaker 10>great days on us. Zach Or man looked those players.

0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:27.680
<v Speaker 3>In the eye.

0:17:27.720 --> 0:17:29.280
<v Speaker 10>He never get at the high and hide or logan

0:17:29.359 --> 0:17:31.240
<v Speaker 10>too low. He stayed in the middle. And I'm telling

0:17:31.240 --> 0:17:34.040
<v Speaker 10>you he always would be positive, but he was tough.

0:17:34.119 --> 0:17:37.480
<v Speaker 10>He's tough on the coaches and the players, and he

0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:41.000
<v Speaker 10>would tell everybody. He would show everybody how close we

0:17:41.000 --> 0:17:45.080
<v Speaker 10>were to actually having success. Like it might be an

0:17:45.119 --> 0:17:47.600
<v Speaker 10>angle of a defensive backrouns of ball, or it might

0:17:47.600 --> 0:17:50.919
<v Speaker 10>be a pass rusher that ran past the quarterback and

0:17:50.960 --> 0:17:54.600
<v Speaker 10>the quarterback ran. Zach would stand and talk to everybody,

0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:57.800
<v Speaker 10>and he led. He never flinched. And watching this cat

0:17:57.840 --> 0:17:59.840
<v Speaker 10>do it. And I know last year a lot of people,

0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:02.800
<v Speaker 10>you know, they were in the media, We're saying, well,

0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:05.480
<v Speaker 10>this guy came in and helped. No, No, zach Orr

0:18:05.480 --> 0:18:09.280
<v Speaker 10>did it. Zach Orr in those rooms with the coaches,

0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:12.480
<v Speaker 10>he led. He made the changes in support with coach

0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:15.639
<v Speaker 10>Harball and the guys on that staff. But zach Orr

0:18:15.880 --> 0:18:18.359
<v Speaker 10>truly led the charge. I'm a witness to it, and

0:18:18.400 --> 0:18:21.000
<v Speaker 10>I've been wanting to say this because dude is the truth.

0:18:21.440 --> 0:18:23.800
<v Speaker 10>Dude didn't flinch, and dude is going to be one

0:18:23.840 --> 0:18:26.120
<v Speaker 10>of the best coordinators in the league. He is smart,

0:18:26.400 --> 0:18:28.600
<v Speaker 10>he is a leader, and when you watch him work

0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:31.920
<v Speaker 10>every day, this dude comes to work. I'm telling you,

0:18:31.960 --> 0:18:34.680
<v Speaker 10>and I'm just glad. That was my last question because

0:18:34.720 --> 0:18:37.680
<v Speaker 10>I wanted to make set the record straight because I'm

0:18:37.720 --> 0:18:39.199
<v Speaker 10>a part of it, and I have no reason to

0:18:39.200 --> 0:18:40.880
<v Speaker 10>come compare and bys y'all because.

0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:41.160
<v Speaker 3>You know I roll.

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:45.600
<v Speaker 10>But Zach Orr was the one who changed what we

0:18:45.640 --> 0:18:49.040
<v Speaker 10>did last year. And give John Harball a lot of credit.

0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:51.320
<v Speaker 10>You know he was in there with us too, but

0:18:51.400 --> 0:18:55.239
<v Speaker 10>I gotta give Zach most of the credit for the

0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:58.720
<v Speaker 10>adjustments that happened in that secondary and also helping us.

0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:02.720
<v Speaker 10>Coaches like call him like I mean, the youngest in charge,

0:19:03.080 --> 0:19:05.520
<v Speaker 10>That's what I call him. He's a special coach and

0:19:05.600 --> 0:19:08.320
<v Speaker 10>I'm just I'm really blessed to be around a guy

0:19:08.359 --> 0:19:08.560
<v Speaker 10>like that.

0:19:11.720 --> 0:19:15.840
<v Speaker 1>Next up, let's hear from outside linebacker Tavis Robinson.

0:19:17.920 --> 0:19:18.160
<v Speaker 3>Smith.

0:19:18.160 --> 0:19:19.600
<v Speaker 12>I don't know how much he called it, Juck Smith,

0:19:19.720 --> 0:19:22.480
<v Speaker 12>but they were absolutely raving about your work ethic. Where

0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:24.360
<v Speaker 12>does that come from? Is that something that dates back

0:19:24.359 --> 0:19:26.679
<v Speaker 12>to your college days? I was being in front taking notes.

0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:29.119
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I think it just goes back to kind of

0:19:29.720 --> 0:19:31.600
<v Speaker 5>college and like my journey and that's kind of what

0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:33.600
<v Speaker 5>has got me to where I am at this point.

0:19:33.640 --> 0:19:35.280
<v Speaker 5>So it's something that it's always gonna be in my

0:19:35.280 --> 0:19:37.240
<v Speaker 5>blood and just kind of how I operate for the

0:19:37.280 --> 0:19:38.360
<v Speaker 5>rest of my life and everything.

0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:42.480
<v Speaker 12>So yeah, said that he feels like you're prime for

0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:43.240
<v Speaker 12>a breakout year.

0:19:43.400 --> 0:19:44.840
<v Speaker 9>Why do you feel like that might be true?

0:19:45.200 --> 0:19:46.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I think just you know, going into my third

0:19:46.880 --> 0:19:49.840
<v Speaker 5>year here, like things are just coming smoother, like the

0:19:49.840 --> 0:19:53.520
<v Speaker 5>way I see plays everything, Like as the years have

0:19:53.560 --> 0:19:56.040
<v Speaker 5>gone on, it's gotten easy. I've been seeing plays better, uh,

0:19:56.080 --> 0:19:58.440
<v Speaker 5>you know, and it's kind of like just taking it

0:19:58.480 --> 0:20:00.040
<v Speaker 5>to the next level every year. So I think this

0:20:00.160 --> 0:20:01.480
<v Speaker 5>year is going to be great for sure.

0:20:01.760 --> 0:20:05.200
<v Speaker 8>You ever miss a meeting, you don't ever miss a meal,

0:20:05.560 --> 0:20:07.680
<v Speaker 8>you don't ever miss a practice, you don't ever miss

0:20:07.680 --> 0:20:10.439
<v Speaker 8>a rep. Yeah, when you spend the time that you

0:20:10.920 --> 0:20:13.840
<v Speaker 8>kind of maybe wanted to and push through.

0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:14.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think I think.

0:20:14.880 --> 0:20:16.840
<v Speaker 5>I mean everyone here, you know, we get tired during

0:20:16.880 --> 0:20:19.000
<v Speaker 5>those camp days. But again, you know, we're blessed to

0:20:19.000 --> 0:20:20.800
<v Speaker 5>do this. We're blessed to come on this field every day.

0:20:20.840 --> 0:20:22.960
<v Speaker 5>So you know, I would be dead wrong to miss

0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:25.480
<v Speaker 5>out on something, whether it's a rep, a lift, or

0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:26.200
<v Speaker 5>anything like that.

0:20:26.280 --> 0:20:28.840
<v Speaker 9>So have you missed any practices in your whole careero?

0:20:29.080 --> 0:20:30.320
<v Speaker 3>I haven't, No, no, sir.

0:20:32.280 --> 0:20:34.280
<v Speaker 6>What you know, Chuck was saying that he feels like

0:20:34.320 --> 0:20:37.000
<v Speaker 6>you're becoming a Bodifi pass rusher and in that aspect

0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:39.520
<v Speaker 6>of your game, where do you feel this that you've

0:20:39.520 --> 0:20:40.240
<v Speaker 6>made strives?

0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:42.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I think you know, going into my third year

0:20:42.480 --> 0:20:44.119
<v Speaker 5>with Chuck, you know, I've learned so much from him,

0:20:44.160 --> 0:20:46.800
<v Speaker 5>and you know, he's been a great coach. Just to

0:20:46.840 --> 0:20:48.679
<v Speaker 5>pick his brain and have someone who's done it at

0:20:48.720 --> 0:20:51.359
<v Speaker 5>the highest level and learn from him, I think again

0:20:51.400 --> 0:20:53.320
<v Speaker 5>every year, I just think I'm getting better learning from him.

0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:55.399
<v Speaker 5>And uh yeah, I think it's just again going to

0:20:55.440 --> 0:20:57.000
<v Speaker 5>step it up and notch in the pass rush.

0:20:57.160 --> 0:20:59.359
<v Speaker 6>What's been your impression of Adape Did you see him

0:20:59.400 --> 0:21:01.000
<v Speaker 6>and you like fully crappy thrown?

0:21:01.560 --> 0:21:01.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:04.440
<v Speaker 5>No, Adafa, you know, yeah, No, he's been a dog,

0:21:04.520 --> 0:21:06.480
<v Speaker 5>so you know, uh yeah, it's good to see him,

0:21:06.520 --> 0:21:08.800
<v Speaker 5>and uh, I think he's gonna have another a great year.

0:21:08.840 --> 0:21:10.680
<v Speaker 5>That's a guy that you know, I've kind of looked

0:21:10.760 --> 0:21:11.800
<v Speaker 5>up to since I got here.

0:21:11.880 --> 0:21:16.400
<v Speaker 8>So Yeah, truck Smith with Tody and he said, everybody

0:21:16.440 --> 0:21:17.359
<v Speaker 8>has to have a skill.

0:21:18.480 --> 0:21:18.920
<v Speaker 10>What's yours?

0:21:19.440 --> 0:21:23.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I think mine's power. Like I'm not the the physical.

0:21:23.280 --> 0:21:25.760
<v Speaker 5>I like coming off and you know, using my head

0:21:25.760 --> 0:21:27.680
<v Speaker 5>a little bit and uh, bull rushing guys. So that's

0:21:27.720 --> 0:21:29.400
<v Speaker 5>kind of my my staple right now. But then it's

0:21:29.440 --> 0:21:31.520
<v Speaker 5>just building off of that. It's kind of my goal.

0:21:31.640 --> 0:21:36.440
<v Speaker 8>So the way of actually caging the effectiveness effectiveness of

0:21:36.560 --> 0:21:38.360
<v Speaker 8>that until the pads come on in training camp.

0:21:38.400 --> 0:21:40.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean, is there a way to know if you're

0:21:40.320 --> 0:21:41.840
<v Speaker 2>actually winning.

0:21:41.520 --> 0:21:44.200
<v Speaker 3>As a power rusher? Yeah, in these early stages of

0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:45.280
<v Speaker 3>the off PHAs, not really.

0:21:45.320 --> 0:21:47.480
<v Speaker 5>No, it's a ot as without the pads, it's kind

0:21:47.480 --> 0:21:50.160
<v Speaker 5>of hard to you know, judge that. But when once

0:21:50.160 --> 0:21:50.840
<v Speaker 5>the pads come on.

0:21:50.960 --> 0:21:53.640
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, I know you're close with Trent and Simpson.

0:21:53.960 --> 0:21:56.800
<v Speaker 6>What have you seen from him this offseason and even

0:21:56.800 --> 0:21:57.879
<v Speaker 6>handling last season?

0:21:57.960 --> 0:21:59.160
<v Speaker 9>How that kind of played out for him?

0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:01.920
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, just another they're great offseason with him. I mean again,

0:22:02.000 --> 0:22:03.520
<v Speaker 5>we were up here in the building all day. You know,

0:22:03.560 --> 0:22:04.879
<v Speaker 5>we took our little two weeks at the end of

0:22:04.880 --> 0:22:06.560
<v Speaker 5>the season, and then we were here for the whole summer.

0:22:06.640 --> 0:22:09.119
<v Speaker 5>So uh yeah, just a guy who was again in

0:22:09.160 --> 0:22:11.680
<v Speaker 5>here every day, working, getting better, taking care of his body.

0:22:11.680 --> 0:22:13.000
<v Speaker 3>So I think he's gonna have a great year too.

0:22:13.800 --> 0:22:17.440
<v Speaker 4>What's aboutream beyond just the hype being the second round thing.

0:22:17.680 --> 0:22:19.640
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, No, he's been a guy who's been very attentive

0:22:19.680 --> 0:22:21.280
<v Speaker 5>at meetings and that's that's a big thing, you know,

0:22:21.359 --> 0:22:24.000
<v Speaker 5>getting in and learning the playbook is unless you play fast.

0:22:24.080 --> 0:22:26.280
<v Speaker 5>So he's been a guy who's been on that knows

0:22:26.320 --> 0:22:27.800
<v Speaker 5>his stuff, and I think he's gonna be a baller

0:22:27.840 --> 0:22:28.160
<v Speaker 5>for sure.

0:22:30.440 --> 0:22:33.560
<v Speaker 11>It's basically your one for Lisa. After the injuries last year,

0:22:33.600 --> 0:22:35.280
<v Speaker 11>I guess, how did you see him try to keep

0:22:35.359 --> 0:22:37.200
<v Speaker 11>up even when dealing with injuries.

0:22:36.800 --> 0:22:37.920
<v Speaker 9>And what difference have you seen it?

0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:41.520
<v Speaker 5>Sorry witha dec Yeah yeah, I think you know again

0:22:41.720 --> 0:22:43.679
<v Speaker 5>in his rookiear he had injuries and stuff, but and

0:22:43.760 --> 0:22:45.480
<v Speaker 5>same with it decent now, you know, I see him

0:22:45.600 --> 0:22:49.040
<v Speaker 5>getting treatment like recovery, doing recovery stuff, active recovery.

0:22:49.080 --> 0:22:49.520
<v Speaker 3>Every day.

0:22:49.720 --> 0:22:51.240
<v Speaker 5>He's in there doing yoga with me at the end

0:22:51.240 --> 0:22:53.560
<v Speaker 5>of the thing. So I think he's he's learned how

0:22:53.560 --> 0:22:54.920
<v Speaker 5>to take care of his body, and I think again

0:22:54.960 --> 0:22:56.080
<v Speaker 5>he's gonna be a dog as well.

0:22:59.200 --> 0:23:02.480
<v Speaker 1>And lastly, here's second year outside linebacker Adisa Isaac.

0:23:03.880 --> 0:23:06.800
<v Speaker 12>Injuries were a factor in both just getting actimated of

0:23:06.800 --> 0:23:09.639
<v Speaker 12>the team during the season. How has this offseason been different?

0:23:09.720 --> 0:23:11.399
<v Speaker 12>How do you think that's gonna help you feel.

0:23:11.119 --> 0:23:12.000
<v Speaker 9>To a successful year?

0:23:12.640 --> 0:23:15.200
<v Speaker 13>Yeah? This this this year has definitely been way different

0:23:15.200 --> 0:23:17.920
<v Speaker 13>than last year. Just uh feel a lot much fresher,

0:23:18.960 --> 0:23:20.920
<v Speaker 13>you know, with all the rehab that I did last year,

0:23:21.000 --> 0:23:23.840
<v Speaker 13>just get my body right this year and from the

0:23:23.840 --> 0:23:25.920
<v Speaker 13>off season that the time we had off coming into

0:23:25.960 --> 0:23:27.879
<v Speaker 13>this year, I feel like I took the right steps

0:23:27.920 --> 0:23:30.840
<v Speaker 13>to be mentally and physically prepared for what's what's gonna

0:23:30.840 --> 0:23:33.720
<v Speaker 13>happen in camp and throughout the season. So I'm definitely

0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:36.520
<v Speaker 13>in a good spot now moving forward. I'm just excited.

0:23:36.680 --> 0:23:37.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:23:37.440 --> 0:23:39.960
<v Speaker 11>Do you do anything different to make sure that nagging

0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:41.080
<v Speaker 11>injury doesn't come back?

0:23:41.240 --> 0:23:41.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, definitely.

0:23:41.920 --> 0:23:44.480
<v Speaker 13>I just, you know, really just emphasized the the main

0:23:44.520 --> 0:23:47.120
<v Speaker 13>injuries that I had, which was the hamstring, and really

0:23:47.200 --> 0:23:49.879
<v Speaker 13>just uh took a deep dive on what's what's causing it,

0:23:50.400 --> 0:23:52.960
<v Speaker 13>and then attacked the rehab and then attacked my off

0:23:52.960 --> 0:23:56.600
<v Speaker 13>season workouts. And I'm feeling great, so you know, and

0:23:56.600 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 13>that's that's kind of what I was driving for coming

0:23:58.359 --> 0:24:03.240
<v Speaker 13>back and I'm just stacking and looking for good things.

0:24:04.119 --> 0:24:06.280
<v Speaker 9>How challenging is that your rookie season.

0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:07.879
<v Speaker 6>You know, you're going to the league, you're drafted in

0:24:07.880 --> 0:24:10.119
<v Speaker 6>the third round, You're really excited, and then to have

0:24:10.240 --> 0:24:11.120
<v Speaker 6>those kind of setbacks.

0:24:11.119 --> 0:24:12.960
<v Speaker 9>How do you deal with that from mental perspective?

0:24:13.000 --> 0:24:13.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, it was.

0:24:13.560 --> 0:24:16.040
<v Speaker 13>It was definitely a tough you know, you know, getting

0:24:16.040 --> 0:24:17.840
<v Speaker 13>on the biggest stage and then you know, having a

0:24:17.840 --> 0:24:20.760
<v Speaker 13>couple of hiccups. But you know, adversity has just nothing

0:24:20.760 --> 0:24:22.880
<v Speaker 13>new for me, and I feel like, you know, I'm

0:24:22.680 --> 0:24:24.800
<v Speaker 13>I'm I'm the same undiadversity. You know, I just kind

0:24:24.800 --> 0:24:27.320
<v Speaker 13>of attack it with with calmness and in a sharp mind.

0:24:27.359 --> 0:24:29.840
<v Speaker 13>And I feel like, you know, tough, tough times don't last.

0:24:29.840 --> 0:24:32.240
<v Speaker 13>So it's just as a matter of just putting my

0:24:32.240 --> 0:24:34.080
<v Speaker 13>head down, putting the work in, and I know that,

0:24:34.200 --> 0:24:36.520
<v Speaker 13>you know, sooner or later, I'm gonna come back on top.

0:24:36.560 --> 0:24:39.600
<v Speaker 13>So it's just a matter of time. Yeah, you had.

0:24:39.760 --> 0:24:42.399
<v Speaker 8>One hamstring injury and then a different hamstring injury in

0:24:42.440 --> 0:24:42.960
<v Speaker 8>the other.

0:24:42.920 --> 0:24:46.520
<v Speaker 13>Like right right that that happened a preseason game. That

0:24:46.640 --> 0:24:47.320
<v Speaker 13>the second one.

0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:51.520
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, is there any kind of you know, t J.

0:24:51.640 --> 0:24:54.119
<v Speaker 6>Tampa also dealt with injuries last year, the rookie class,

0:24:54.160 --> 0:24:55.359
<v Speaker 6>just some of you guys kind of dealt with his

0:24:55.520 --> 0:24:56.240
<v Speaker 6>nagging things.

0:24:56.520 --> 0:24:59.080
<v Speaker 9>Did you bond in any way with each other during

0:24:59.119 --> 0:24:59.520
<v Speaker 9>that time?

0:24:59.640 --> 0:25:01.200
<v Speaker 13>I mean we bonded the whole year. I feel like

0:25:01.240 --> 0:25:03.240
<v Speaker 13>we had a we had a good class. We all

0:25:03.640 --> 0:25:06.520
<v Speaker 13>very like minded, you know, came from similar places, you know,

0:25:06.600 --> 0:25:10.560
<v Speaker 13>had similar stories, so we all bonded regardless. But that definitely,

0:25:10.600 --> 0:25:12.280
<v Speaker 13>you know, put a more emphasis on it, you know,

0:25:12.400 --> 0:25:14.480
<v Speaker 13>just pushing each other to come back, and you know,

0:25:14.560 --> 0:25:16.359
<v Speaker 13>just talking about what we're gonna do, how we're gonna

0:25:16.359 --> 0:25:18.679
<v Speaker 13>do it, and just get ready for the season, you know,

0:25:18.920 --> 0:25:21.280
<v Speaker 13>and high high expectations.

0:25:21.400 --> 0:25:24.040
<v Speaker 8>How have you leaned on a way for your no

0:25:24.119 --> 0:25:27.080
<v Speaker 8>long time to kind of guide you through being a

0:25:27.160 --> 0:25:28.400
<v Speaker 8>pro last year?

0:25:28.640 --> 0:25:28.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:25:28.960 --> 0:25:31.600
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, you know, I've I've played with always since since college,

0:25:31.600 --> 0:25:34.040
<v Speaker 13>so I've known him for a while and even since college.

0:25:34.040 --> 0:25:35.679
<v Speaker 13>You know, he was my host at Penn State, so

0:25:35.760 --> 0:25:37.400
<v Speaker 13>you know, he's always been kind of like a big

0:25:37.400 --> 0:25:39.119
<v Speaker 13>brother to me and just you know, kind of just

0:25:39.119 --> 0:25:41.000
<v Speaker 13>showing me the way and showing me how to do

0:25:41.040 --> 0:25:42.800
<v Speaker 13>things the right way. So it's been it's been amazing

0:25:42.880 --> 0:25:45.960
<v Speaker 13>to end up here, and you know, be reunited with

0:25:46.040 --> 0:25:48.200
<v Speaker 13>him and continue continue the journey through.

0:25:48.359 --> 0:25:51.520
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, what the outside linebacker room is like in that dynamic,

0:25:51.520 --> 0:25:53.440
<v Speaker 6>A lot of young guys kind of hungry to make

0:25:53.480 --> 0:25:53.920
<v Speaker 6>their mark.

0:25:54.040 --> 0:25:56.840
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, Like I kind of said with my recruiting class,

0:25:57.080 --> 0:25:59.080
<v Speaker 13>we was all we all like minded in our room.

<v Speaker 13>We have the same kind of mo how play style,

0:26:02.160 --> 0:26:03.720
<v Speaker 13>so we kind of all get it. And then you know,

0:26:03.760 --> 0:26:05.560
<v Speaker 13>the scheme fits us perfect. So it's just a matter

0:26:05.600 --> 0:26:07.800
<v Speaker 13>of us going out there executing, being on the same

0:26:07.840 --> 0:26:09.920
<v Speaker 13>page and you know, playing raven football.

0:26:10.000 --> 0:26:13.840
