- 0:46Speaker 1: leave us a comment and a five star rating. O
- 0:49Speaker 1: T A s under way. We've just come off the
- 0:52Speaker 1: practice field. We've just come out of the Trevor Lawrence
- 0:54Speaker 1: press conference. Doug Peterson talked before practice. John will start
- 0:59Speaker 1: with you today. Well, that was one hell of an
- 1:01Speaker 1: O T A practice shape. I was going to ask
- 1:03Speaker 1: you and I joke, but it's uh. I think if
- 1:09Speaker 1: anything stood out, um, it looked to me like Christian
- 1:14Speaker 1: Kirk and Trevor Lawrence had a little something, you know
- 1:17Speaker 1: that that you saw a couple of plays downfield. That
- 1:20Speaker 1: was nice. Trevor looked in control, but he looked like
- 1:26Speaker 1: he knew what he was doing. Beyond that, I can't
- 1:29Speaker 1: watch offensive and defensive line very much because I don't
- 1:31Speaker 1: know how to see that in seven on seven or
- 1:35Speaker 1: we can't see in seven and seven. But eleven eleven,
- 1:37Speaker 1: So I liked what I saw to Trevor, and I'll
- 1:40Speaker 1: defer to the group. I thought the defensive line got after.
- 1:43Speaker 1: And I say that now with a grain of salt,
- 1:45Speaker 1: because Trevor was asked about that in his press conference, like, hey,
- 1:47Speaker 1: the defensive line got after and he kind of just chuckled, like, yeah,
- 1:50Speaker 1: they didn't have pads on, so they somewhat did, but
- 1:52Speaker 1: and he kind of inferred they were going a little
- 1:54Speaker 1: harder than they were supposed to be, which happens on
- 1:56Speaker 1: the first day defensive line at Gossips where Robertson Harris
- 2:01Speaker 1: definitely brought some intensity and there were a couple of
- 2:03Speaker 1: times where it would have been a sack. So I
- 2:05Speaker 1: think as a whole. You could say a good day
- 2:07Speaker 1: for the defensive line. And I agree with the Christian
- 2:10Speaker 1: Kirk comment. There were definitely some throws that you said, wow,
- 2:12Speaker 1: and you knew that was coming good thing. How's bored?
- 2:16Speaker 1: I mean, it's so hard to know what you see.
- 2:20Speaker 1: And we can talk about Christian Kirk and e An Ingram, um,
- 2:23Speaker 1: and you know, people are gonna break down the interception
- 2:25Speaker 1: that um, Trevor Lawrence through it and it's it's practiced
- 2:29Speaker 1: that this is the time to do that. I will
- 2:31Speaker 1: say this. It was calm. It was very calm, you know.
- 2:34Speaker 1: I mean, there wasn't a lot of jumping around and
- 2:36Speaker 1: whistles blowing, and it was just kind of a matter
- 2:38Speaker 1: of fact, we're going through the work. This is what
- 2:40Speaker 1: we do. Um. They're still working to get to p
- 2:43Speaker 1: a fixed So I think that happens during training. It was.
- 2:46Speaker 1: It was. It was a typical O t A practice
- 2:49Speaker 1: in the sense that it was running against you know,
- 2:52Speaker 1: without full pads. It was. It was. It was there.
- 2:57Speaker 1: You get an opportunity to take some things from the
- 2:59Speaker 1: classroom over the last few weeks, bring him to the
- 3:01Speaker 1: field for the first time. See if that sticks. Go
- 3:04Speaker 1: back work on it the next day, day to day progress.
- 3:07Speaker 1: The overwriting theme for me is that Doug Peterson been
- 3:10Speaker 1: here and done that, and it's just not you know,
- 3:13Speaker 1: putting more emphasis on it that he needs. That's not
- 3:15Speaker 1: to say they don't want to get the work done.
- 3:16Speaker 1: I mean they're out there getting things done and he's
- 3:18Speaker 1: got a checklist. Um. But you know, the way that
- 3:22Speaker 1: you get better is to evaluate the mistakes and so
- 3:24Speaker 1: not to overplay it. But they're gonna overplay that. You know,
- 3:28Speaker 1: Trevor through a pick today, big deal, It doesn't matter.
- 3:31Speaker 1: Travis C. T n Jr. Was on the field today.
- 3:33Speaker 1: Doug Peterson said this morning before practice full go. They're
- 3:37Speaker 1: gonna monitor him. That was good to see Ash and
- 3:39Speaker 1: him running around making catches, doing some things. That's a
- 3:42Speaker 1: good thing. It was, and it's it's it was hard
- 3:44Speaker 1: last year because you almost it's had to say, forgot
- 3:46Speaker 1: about him because we hadn't seen him in so long.
- 3:49Speaker 1: To see him on the football field was awesome. He
- 3:50Speaker 1: saw James Robinson off to the side and a sweatshirt
- 3:53Speaker 1: and you're waiting for him to get back on the field.
- 3:55Speaker 1: But it's the connection we've been waiting to see with
- 3:57Speaker 1: Trevor and Travis and you hope to see more of that. Um,
- 4:00Speaker 1: so yeah, it's um something we've been waiting for for
- 4:02Speaker 1: a year. I'll be interested to see how he does
- 4:06Speaker 1: the next week, right, I mean for him, But since
- 4:08Speaker 1: we only see one week, what's it gonna be like
- 4:09Speaker 1: to mars'll go? Right? And with what swell? Will he
- 4:12Speaker 1: need to take time off? The question and we won't
- 4:15Speaker 1: know the answer to this is how does he recover
- 4:18Speaker 1: and get ready to go the next day, because that's
- 4:19Speaker 1: gonna be the true test with an injury like that.
- 4:21Speaker 1: But they didn't look like they were holding back yet.
- 4:26Speaker 1: I didn't see any I don't know that I know
- 4:28Speaker 1: enough about the nuances of his game to know if
- 4:31Speaker 1: he was cutting the same, if he looked as quick.
- 4:35Speaker 1: But I didn't see anything that made me think, oh,
- 4:39Speaker 1: so I would think you're still If you're them, he's
- 4:43Speaker 1: completely He's pretty cleared. So he's going you still want
- 4:46Speaker 1: to get him to training camp when with contact and
- 4:50Speaker 1: with that sort of work, it's still a step up.
- 4:53Speaker 1: But so far, so good, and that's all you can
- 4:55Speaker 1: expect at this point. I mean, the news would be
- 4:58Speaker 1: if he was still off to the side, if there
- 5:00Speaker 1: was something like that. So there's no bubble around him.
- 5:02Speaker 1: So so far, so good, and I think that's a
- 5:07Speaker 1: you know, we've talked about it. It. As Schlynn said,
- 5:10Speaker 1: it's almost a forgotten thing that this kid wasn't a
- 5:14Speaker 1: third round pick. It went a fourth round pick. He
- 5:16Speaker 1: was a first round pick who is supposed to be
- 5:19Speaker 1: a high impact. I don't know if it would be
- 5:21Speaker 1: a thousand yard guy, but he's supposed to five or
- 5:24Speaker 1: six games a year. Make a play where you go woke,
- 5:27Speaker 1: and they didn't have that, and if they have it,
- 5:28Speaker 1: it's a big deal. It would be nice. For sure.
- 5:31Speaker 1: We've got plenty ahead. We'll take a time out. We'll
- 5:33Speaker 1: come back and get into Trevor Lawrence's comments after practice today.
- 5:37Speaker 1: The Jags are future focused and ready for a new

- 6:32Speaker 1: my mother to the Dubie Brothers. That's that's our goal.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Very nice with Michael McDonald. I don't have any plans

- 6:43Speaker 1: I'm gonna plan on going to have one planned on
- 6:45Speaker 1: that yet, but I may try to see if I
- 6:46Speaker 1: can get in that. And I dig me a Black
- 6:49Speaker 1: the way I understand that they're playing the entire Shake
- 6:52Speaker 1: Your money Maker album, I'd be fantastic. So I've got
- 6:55Speaker 1: that going for you. Which was the big one all right?
- 6:58Speaker 1: So o t Number one is a books after practice today.
- 7:01Speaker 1: If you guys spoke on the field, and then Trevor
- 7:04Speaker 1: Lawrence spoke at the podium, and I think I asked
- 7:07Speaker 1: him early, how do you measure uh, improvement as the
- 7:11Speaker 1: days go along? And yeah, it's more it's timing that
- 7:14Speaker 1: you want to see if you complete the balls. But
- 7:16Speaker 1: it's kind of a little by little. I don't think
- 7:18Speaker 1: they're looking at the reported you know, eighteen of twenty
- 7:23Speaker 1: today any of that. I feel it felt to me
- 7:25Speaker 1: the way he answered that question, it's more of a
- 7:27Speaker 1: it just feels better day to day, John, what do
- 7:30Speaker 1: you say? Well, I think it does. I think the
- 7:32Speaker 1: thing that stood out was he never really mentioned this
- 7:35Speaker 1: last year because you don't, but he he talked more
- 7:39Speaker 1: extensively than I've heard him talk about the difference in
- 7:42Speaker 1: learning a pro offense last year compared to his college offense,
- 7:46Speaker 1: and he talked about that being difficult, and he said
- 7:51Speaker 1: that in a way where he was answering if it's
- 7:53Speaker 1: easier this year. It certainly sounded from his comments like
- 7:56Speaker 1: he feels like he's picking things up and getting it
- 8:00Speaker 1: far earlier, far easier. I don't think that's insignificant. So
- 8:04Speaker 1: that was really my main takeaway. Uh, it appeared on
- 8:07Speaker 1: the field like he knew what he was doing, like
- 8:09Speaker 1: he was operating quickly. Uh so again that was my takeaway, bro,
- 8:13Speaker 1: I mean, big picture, he just appeared to be in control, right. Uh,
- 8:18Speaker 1: he just and that's year two picking up where he
- 8:22Speaker 1: left off last year. He just seemed to be the
- 8:25Speaker 1: man right and had everything down pad. I mean he
- 8:29Speaker 1: doesn't obviously, but he knew what needed to be done
- 8:31Speaker 1: and how to get it done and he made out
- 8:33Speaker 1: of executed it perfectly. But it's pretty clear that he's
- 8:35Speaker 1: improved and um and this is his show. Yeah. We
- 8:39Speaker 1: talked to Christian Kirk after practice and he was asking
- 8:41Speaker 1: you is it sometimes overplayed? Because at times I think
- 8:44Speaker 1: it is the timing of a new receiver and how
- 8:46Speaker 1: difficult is and he goes and he laughed. He goes
- 8:48Speaker 1: with Trevor. It's not at all like he's Trevor Lawrence.
- 8:50Speaker 1: Of course, the timing is perfect and it's O t
- 8:52Speaker 1: A number one. He just looks I don't know how
- 8:55Speaker 1: to describe it. He just looks like he belongs in
- 8:57Speaker 1: that role, like like he just kept going from last year.
- 9:00Speaker 1: If this isn't a a a Trevor comment, but I
- 9:03Speaker 1: was among a couple of people who talked to Josh
- 9:06Speaker 1: Allen after practice He's always interesting, but he was particularly
- 9:10Speaker 1: interesting today. He just got back last week. He had
- 9:12Speaker 1: been training out in Arizona with no uh uh, I'm
- 9:20Speaker 1: drawing a blank. I will write it this week looking
- 9:22Speaker 1: forward on Jaguars dot com. Not von Miller, a former
- 9:25Speaker 1: cardinal who I know and I can't even name, but
- 9:29Speaker 1: I look forward on jay Wars dot com. But his uh,
- 9:32Speaker 1: his point was he really felt like for himself personally
- 9:38Speaker 1: after what happened last year, uh, that he needed to
- 9:41Speaker 1: sort of a football rebirth, if you will. So he
- 9:46Speaker 1: will be a storyline this year because of his contract,
- 9:49Speaker 1: he knows he needs a big year. Um, he will
- 9:51Speaker 1: be a big story. It was interesting the thoughts he
- 9:55Speaker 1: had about how much he needed to get away. He
- 9:58Speaker 1: feels like his body is much different. He's going to
- 10:02Speaker 1: be moving better than he has before. Reborn in Arizona
- 10:06Speaker 1: will probably be the headline that j K story tailor
- 10:09Speaker 1: Jones not not chanling Man. My overwhelming takeaway from practice
- 10:15Speaker 1: today was a lot of the guys that I've forgotten about,
- 10:17Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Malcolm Brown, you know he's
- 10:19Speaker 1: out there working like okay. J to Fele We talked
- 10:22Speaker 1: about all the additions to the defensive side. But you know,
- 10:24Speaker 1: these are guys who people haven't been talking about. Um,
- 10:29Speaker 1: Dan Arnold is back out there, so all the focuses
- 10:31Speaker 1: on Evan Ingram, who, by the way, is a big receiver.
- 10:34Speaker 1: He's not a tight end. Uh, but you've got him
- 10:37Speaker 1: and you've got Dan Arnold running around now. So there's
- 10:40Speaker 1: a lot of different pieces that people just they kind
- 10:42Speaker 1: of slid through the gaps because people were focused on
- 10:44Speaker 1: the high dollar free agents in the draft class. But
- 10:47Speaker 1: there are guys who are now back for a second
- 10:49Speaker 1: year or third who have the ability to contribute to
- 10:52Speaker 1: make this team better. And I would give you one
- 10:54Speaker 1: right off the deck, Quil Armstead. Right, you're talking about
- 10:57Speaker 1: bodies and running back. Forgot that they had signed him,
- 11:00Speaker 1: that's right. And you're talking about a big body now
- 11:02Speaker 1: and a guy who showed flashes before he had the
- 11:04Speaker 1: COVID issues and was gone from here. So now when
- 11:07Speaker 1: you start talking about when, does you know when do
- 11:10Speaker 1: you get Robinson back? Maybe you got him until Robinson's
- 11:14Speaker 1: really ready to go and you don't have to force it.
- 11:17Speaker 1: Excellent point, because you you've seen names on paper and
- 11:20Speaker 1: forget about him for what I haven't seen him there
- 11:21Speaker 1: heard whatever. All of a sudden, everybody's back on the
- 11:23Speaker 1: field now and you get to see him, John, do
- 11:25Speaker 1: you have an answer? I don't, but but I will
- 11:28Speaker 1: say the couple of Ingram stood out a little bit
- 11:31Speaker 1: to me today, as did zaj So just a couple
- 11:35Speaker 1: of guys who uh flashed. As they like to say,
- 11:39Speaker 1: he's fast because Jones, which is always think they're not
- 11:41Speaker 1: with pads on. But he was piecing the defenders by him.
- 11:44Speaker 1: Evan Ingram, I think he's gonna be Alshon Jeffrey in
- 11:47Speaker 1: this offense. If you go back to when the Eagles
- 11:51Speaker 1: were really good, they had Alshon Jeffrey, who was six
- 11:54Speaker 1: three I like two fifteen, so he's not quite as
- 11:57Speaker 1: heavy as Ingram, but he was the guy and Doug
- 11:59Speaker 1: talks about an his book. He was the difference maker.
- 12:01Speaker 1: He was the matchup problem. And it looks like Evan
- 12:04Speaker 1: Ingram is going to fill that role alright. The upcoming
- 12:06Speaker 1: schedule two more O t A practices this week, three
- 12:10Speaker 1: of them next week we'll be able to watch Tuesday.
- 12:13Speaker 1: That's the first one next week, and then four on
- 12:16Speaker 1: the schedule. The final week will be at the first
- 12:18Speaker 1: one that week on Monday, as well, historically the tenth
- 12:21Speaker 1: or a final o T a practices light or a
- 12:24Speaker 1: team building day or bowling or something, but a day
- 12:27Speaker 1: awful lot of times as well. We'll see on that one.
- 12:29Speaker 1: Then there's better a mini camp for the three days
- 12:31Speaker 1: the following week. So we'll have all the coverage on
- 12:34Speaker 1: Jaguars dot com, full practice recap from John Oser coming
- 12:37Speaker 1: up today, and probably do reporters after each one. Right,
- 12:40Speaker 1: I probably do this very similar because we'll be on
- 12:42Speaker 1: the field and then we'll come in and do that.
- 12:43Speaker 1: Sounds like a plan to me, Producer John all Right,
- 12:46Speaker 1: that makes sense. I think we'll be on the same
- 12:48Speaker 1: channel different next week. So on Tuesday next week, after
- 12:52Speaker 1: the o T A number four, we'll have another one
- 12:55Speaker 1: for you. Thank you for listening on Jaguars dot com
