Speaker 1: Soon.
0:08
Speaker 2: Welcome to the Ozone Podcast with Jaguars senior writer Sean Oser.
0:14
Speaker 2: All Right, welcome into this week's final Ozone podcast of
0:18
Speaker 2: the off season, and we are joined that. You know,
0:20
Speaker 2: if I can't say how excited I am about it
0:22
Speaker 2: and how appreciative I am at the time he's giving
0:25
Speaker 2: us Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence long time without doing this
0:30
Speaker 2: for you. You've gotten lucky so far, but now you're
0:32
Speaker 2: in the hot seat. But thank you for joining us.
0:34
Speaker 1: Thanks Sean, appreciate you having me man.
0:35
Speaker 2: And first of all, the obligatory off season question, what
0:40
Speaker 2: are you getting out of it? How is this off
0:43
Speaker 2: season going for you?
0:45
Speaker 1: Yeah?
0:45
Speaker 3: I think it's just it's just good to have all
0:47
Speaker 3: the guys here and to build, continue to build on
0:49
Speaker 3: what we started last year. You know, obviously last year's
0:53
Speaker 3: offseason was a little bit different, just because new staff,
0:56
Speaker 3: a lot of new players, a new offense, new defense.
0:59
Speaker 3: Everything is just new. That's how the last couple of
1:02
Speaker 3: years have been for me. So it's nice to have
1:04
Speaker 3: some carryover, some consistency, to have the same you know,
1:07
Speaker 3: system in place, to have a lot of guys coming
1:09
Speaker 3: back on offense. Obviously we added some new pieces, so
1:12
Speaker 3: you're constantly getting those guys up to speed, but just
1:16
Speaker 3: to have our core intact and to add a few
1:18
Speaker 3: pieces here and there, and to be able to build
1:20
Speaker 3: on what we did last year. And we just started
1:22
Speaker 3: so far, so much further ahead of where we were
1:24
Speaker 3: this time last year, you know, because it's our first
1:26
Speaker 3: time seeing the installs last year. And now we've gone
1:29
Speaker 3: through a whole season, We've had the whole system in,
1:32
Speaker 3: we've ran all these plays and all these adjustments and
1:35
Speaker 3: just being able to build on that, and we can
1:37
Speaker 3: talk like we were in December, but we're only in
1:40
Speaker 3: you know, I guess now we're in June. But you know,
1:42
Speaker 3: we're just further ahead.
1:44
Speaker 2: And you talk about that, But where does that come?
1:50
Speaker 2: I mean, how much does that help your comfort? You're
1:55
Speaker 2: in a room, you're sitting there with Doug and Press
1:57
Speaker 2: in the off season, and you have a chance to
1:59
Speaker 2: look back and say, Okay, against the Eagles last year,
2:02
Speaker 2: we did this, what should I have done differently? How
2:06
Speaker 2: important is that to have that time to go over it,
2:09
Speaker 2: for them to say, Okay, I see what Trevor does, well,
2:12
Speaker 2: I see what we should stay away from. I guess
2:16
Speaker 2: we talk about it in press conferences with you so much,
2:20
Speaker 2: But how important is that for you? And how much
2:22
Speaker 2: can that help?
2:23
Speaker 1: Super important?
2:24
Speaker 3: I think it just goes back to, I mean the
2:26
Speaker 3: relationship between players and coaches, especially at the quarterback position,
2:30
Speaker 3: and especially having a coach like coach Peterson who played
2:33
Speaker 3: the position was very involved in the play calling and
2:37
Speaker 3: our system and building that out and all that, and
2:39
Speaker 3: then obviously alongside of Press and our other coaches. But
2:42
Speaker 3: to have that relationship, in that rapport and to be
2:44
Speaker 3: able to build off of a year playing together, that's
2:47
Speaker 3: huge because you learn so much in a season of
2:50
Speaker 3: just different game plans, seeing like you said, to your
2:53
Speaker 3: point of just seeing what I do well, maybe stuff.
2:55
Speaker 3: I don't prefer different concepts. I like whatever mistakes I made,
3:00
Speaker 3: you learn from throughout the throughout the year and last
3:02
Speaker 3: offseason we're watching you know, a combination of Philly and
3:06
Speaker 3: Indie and all these different places where our coaches were before,
3:09
Speaker 3: but different players, and you're while you're installing, you're watching
3:11
Speaker 3: those clips and now when we're installing to the team,
3:14
Speaker 3: it's our clips from last year of what we were
3:16
Speaker 3: able to do, and so that adjustment and just knowing
3:19
Speaker 3: that We've seen all these concepts.
3:21
Speaker 1: We've ran them in games. We've ran them where they
3:23
Speaker 1: worked great.
3:24
Speaker 3: We've ran them where maybe we want to change something
3:26
Speaker 3: because we didn't like how the defense reacted and we
3:28
Speaker 3: want to have an answer for that. So we have
3:30
Speaker 3: all these different clips to look back on, and we
3:32
Speaker 3: have a whole file of all, right, this is all
3:34
Speaker 3: of our plays, this is all the concepts we ran.
3:36
Speaker 3: These were successful, these weren't, and why, And you look
3:39
Speaker 3: back at that. Sometimes it's just you know, you miss
3:41
Speaker 3: a throw, you drop a ball, you know whatever. And
3:43
Speaker 3: then sometimes it's like, schematically, okay, maybe we could have
3:46
Speaker 3: done this a little bit better to prepare for this situation.
3:49
Speaker 2: Doug talked so much last year about almost muscle memory
3:53
Speaker 2: and it it it. You can forget it because you
3:56
Speaker 2: don't you know, we don't play, we just watch. But
3:59
Speaker 2: how important it is to have a play in the
4:02
Speaker 2: second half the season where you've thrown that pass to
4:05
Speaker 2: Christian for in that situation, and just how that muscle
4:08
Speaker 2: memory can help you and now you've got a full
4:10
Speaker 2: season that going forward. That's what you're talking about. Just
4:13
Speaker 2: that's sort of able to recollect without even thinking about it.
4:17
Speaker 3: Definitely I mean, it's for just purposes of being able
4:20
Speaker 3: to run so many different things, and we can make
4:22
Speaker 3: in game adjustments because now we've had like I said,
4:24
Speaker 3: now we've had a full year of doing it. You know,
4:26
Speaker 3: at the beginning of last season, you have a plan
4:28
Speaker 3: and we all know the system by that point, but
4:31
Speaker 3: you have a plan going into the game, and then haltime,
4:33
Speaker 3: halftime comes and you might have to make some adjustments.
4:35
Speaker 3: But it's harder because you know, for our staff it's like,
4:38
Speaker 3: all right, well some of these plays we haven't ran
4:40
Speaker 3: in a while, or maybe we have to make an adjustment,
4:42
Speaker 3: but we're not comfortable because the guys haven't seen that yet.
4:45
Speaker 3: But as the season went on, that was a lot
4:47
Speaker 3: easier to had stuff on the fly.
4:49
Speaker 1: And then now and just for.
4:50
Speaker 3: Confidence too moving forward, is if it's in the second
4:53
Speaker 3: half and it's a big third down or a big
4:55
Speaker 3: fourth down or whatever, we can go back to plays
4:57
Speaker 3: or you know, we know what we do well and
4:59
Speaker 3: we can put our ourselves in situations and we have
5:01
Speaker 3: that confidence as players and coaches.
5:03
Speaker 2: Is it possible to put into words how different you
5:06
Speaker 2: feel right now than you did a year ago?
5:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would just say more comfortable. I mean that's
5:11
Speaker 3: really the I mean most general way to say it,
5:14
Speaker 3: But I would say more comfortable in just our system
5:18
Speaker 3: and different ins and outs of it, the details.
5:20
Speaker 1: You know.
5:20
Speaker 3: Last year was just trying to be a sponge and
5:22
Speaker 3: learn everything and get the basics down. And then now
5:25
Speaker 3: it's like I talked about the details of different routes,
5:28
Speaker 3: different concepts, you know, different coverages, how I'm going to react.
5:31
Speaker 3: All that stuff has just you know, expanded and elevated
5:34
Speaker 3: from obviously doing it for a year.
5:36
Speaker 2: Do you ever stop and think how much you've seen
5:39
Speaker 2: in two years. I mean, it's only been about twenty
5:42
Speaker 2: six months. You've been in Jacksonville. You saw some stuff
5:45
Speaker 2: in twenty one, you saw it, different stuff in twenty
5:49
Speaker 2: twenty two. I mean it was a remarkable season. On
5:52
Speaker 2: the other end, twenty twenty two you're two and six.
5:54
Speaker 2: You recover from that. You've gained a lot of experience
5:58
Speaker 2: in two years on both ends.
6:00
Speaker 3: Definitely, I mean it's it's tough to you know, It's
6:03
Speaker 3: if I looked at my career five years ago or whatever,
6:06
Speaker 3: I would have probably not thought that it would maybe
6:09
Speaker 3: go exactly like that. But I definitely wouldn't change anything,
6:11
Speaker 3: and even last year, you know, I think that was
6:13
Speaker 3: cool for our team to see. You know, we had
6:15
Speaker 3: a great year. We ended up finishing really well. You know,
6:18
Speaker 3: I had a playoff win and came came up short
6:20
Speaker 3: in case. But but then, like you said, to look
6:23
Speaker 3: back at the beginning of the year, it's not like
6:24
Speaker 3: everything just went smooth for us. You know, we were
6:26
Speaker 3: two and six, it lost five games straight and we
6:29
Speaker 3: had to kind of battle out of that, and then
6:31
Speaker 3: we had a rough loss in Detroit after we kind
6:34
Speaker 3: of were coming out of that that, I guess slump
6:37
Speaker 3: of whatever you want to call it. And then to
6:39
Speaker 3: be able to win five straight like we we had
6:41
Speaker 3: a We had a season of ups and downs, and
6:44
Speaker 3: to see how our team responded, in our in our
6:46
Speaker 3: coaching staff, I think that's what gives me more confidence
6:49
Speaker 3: than anything, is that we've been through the roller coaster
6:51
Speaker 3: of a season and you don't want it to be
6:53
Speaker 3: that way, but a lot of times it is that way.
6:55
Speaker 3: It's NFL, and week to week it's just super challenging.
6:59
Speaker 3: So to be able to to kind of battle through
7:02
Speaker 3: that and stay the same and to keep our team together,
7:04
Speaker 3: I think that says more than anything about our guys.
7:07
Speaker 2: I don't know how accurately you can answer this, but
7:10
Speaker 2: it always struck me twenty one, twenty two. I think
7:12
Speaker 2: everybody who was around you you never lost confidence. You
7:16
Speaker 2: always exuded a confident feel. Did you ever lose it inside?
7:22
Speaker 2: Were you just sort of being Trevor smiled at the
7:24
Speaker 2: podium or or or did you always feel confident that
7:28
Speaker 2: you were going to turn it around or that it
7:30
Speaker 2: was going to turn around overall?
7:33
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's tough. Yeah, No, I think
7:35
Speaker 3: I think both. I think I felt both emotions at
7:38
Speaker 3: different times. It's hard, I mean, because there was times
7:42
Speaker 3: where just different weeks up and down, ups and downs
7:46
Speaker 3: of the season, and where I didn't play well. And
7:48
Speaker 3: last year had a stretch of, you know, four or
7:50
Speaker 3: five games where I really didn't play well at all.
7:51
Speaker 3: So there were definitely times where it was harder to
7:54
Speaker 3: see through the other side. But I've always I've always
7:56
Speaker 3: had that that faith and that belief down that I
8:01
Speaker 3: knew what was gonna happen. I knew we were gonna
8:03
Speaker 3: come out on the other side of it. I didn't
8:05
Speaker 3: know exactly when. And obviously, during those times when you're
8:08
Speaker 3: not playing well and the team's not in a great
8:10
Speaker 3: spot as far as you look at just win wins
8:13
Speaker 3: and losses. I mean, it's harder to see and it's
8:15
Speaker 3: harder to forecast. Is that going to be soon or
8:17
Speaker 3: is that going to be later?
8:18
Speaker 1: You know?
8:19
Speaker 3: And so I didn't know the answer to that question,
8:21
Speaker 3: but I just knew. Like I said, I think it's
8:23
Speaker 3: the faith aspect where I just I know that I'm
8:25
Speaker 3: gonna come out on the other side of it, and
8:27
Speaker 3: just hoping it's sooner rather than later. And all I
8:29
Speaker 3: know how to do is just keep going to work.
8:31
Speaker 3: And you know, it's it's hard to not lose confidence
8:34
Speaker 3: because this league is so tough and you can't let
8:37
Speaker 3: things snowball. And you know, that's happened a couple of
8:39
Speaker 3: times in my first two seasons, where you feel like
8:41
Speaker 3: week to week you're letting things carry over and effect
8:43
Speaker 3: you know, how you play mentally. And I think I
8:46
Speaker 3: just hit a point last year where I was able
8:48
Speaker 3: to really turn the plage from play to play series
8:51
Speaker 3: a series where I just I think that experience that
8:53
Speaker 3: you talked about kind of accumulated and I learned I
8:57
Speaker 3: just can't let you can have a bad play. You
8:58
Speaker 3: can have a bad series, but you can't let that
9:00
Speaker 3: snowball into a bad game, a couple of bad games,
9:03
Speaker 3: you know, in a bad stretch. So that's I think
9:05
Speaker 3: I've just learned a lot throughout my first two years.
9:08
Speaker 2: When's the last time that you were able to walk
9:13
Speaker 2: down the street, go to a mall without being recognized
9:17
Speaker 2: as Trevor Lawrence.
9:19
Speaker 1: I don't know.
9:20
Speaker 3: Probably I'll say high school, but even high school from
9:24
Speaker 3: a small town, so it wasn't the same as it is,
9:27
Speaker 3: you know, a different field just because I was still
9:29
Speaker 3: a kid and it was it was different.
9:30
Speaker 1: But it's been a while.
9:32
Speaker 3: Probably it really escalated after my freshman year in college.
9:36
Speaker 3: I've seen winning the national championship and being in Clemson,
9:39
Speaker 3: which is super, super small town.
9:41
Speaker 2: And the reason I asked we talked about a little
9:42
Speaker 2: bit before we went on the air or I started the podcast.
9:47
Speaker 2: You're remarkable in twenty two years old, twenty three, twenty three, Okay,
9:51
Speaker 2: well and able to handle that. And I know you've
9:54
Speaker 2: been through it since you were freshman at Clemson, But
9:58
Speaker 2: what's your approach with fans and how do you handle
10:01
Speaker 2: that because you know they want a piece of you
10:03
Speaker 2: a little bit. You also want some Trevor time, but
10:07
Speaker 2: your your approach and the way you handle fans. Where
10:11
Speaker 2: does that come from and how are you able to
10:13
Speaker 2: do it?
10:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think a lot of it goes
10:16
Speaker 3: back to how I was raised and you know, my
10:19
Speaker 3: family and they my parents taught me to treat people well,
10:23
Speaker 3: regardless of who they are. Always treat people how you
10:26
Speaker 3: want to be treated. So I think that's kind of
10:28
Speaker 3: the principles of it. But then you also think about
10:32
Speaker 3: being in a position I'm in. You have a lot
10:34
Speaker 3: of opportunities to make people smile, to make people's days,
10:37
Speaker 3: and it's hard to sometimes it's it's a hassle and
10:40
Speaker 3: sometimes you just want to have your time, But.
10:43
Speaker 1: It's part of it.
10:44
Speaker 3: You know, it's hard to see a kid running up
10:46
Speaker 3: and if you talk to him, take a picture with him,
10:48
Speaker 3: it might make his day and I make his year exactly.
10:51
Speaker 3: So I mean, it's you got to play. But you also,
10:54
Speaker 3: I mean, I think there's a mutual and a lot
10:55
Speaker 3: of our fans here are awesome. I'd say ninety five
10:58
Speaker 3: percent of them are great, you know, super respectful. Give
11:01
Speaker 3: a space, So there's a time and a place. I
11:03
Speaker 3: also want out of my time you know, if I'm
11:04
Speaker 3: eating or dinner or whatever, like I want to I
11:07
Speaker 3: want to be able to have that time where I
11:08
Speaker 3: can be normal for a second, but just walking around.
11:11
Speaker 3: I understand that kind of comes with the territory and
11:14
Speaker 3: in this position, you know, there's so many good things
11:17
Speaker 3: about it. But one of the things that can be
11:19
Speaker 3: good can be bad is like you share yourselves with
11:21
Speaker 3: You share yourself with the world wherever you go. And
11:23
Speaker 3: that's for me and Marissa, and that's an adjustment obviously
11:25
Speaker 3: that we've had to get used to.
11:27
Speaker 1: But it's part of it, you know, I think.
11:29
Speaker 2: Which you really haven't. You know, I see you on
11:31
Speaker 2: Instagram all the time, and if you follow other people
11:34
Speaker 2: that they post about you all the time. It really
11:37
Speaker 2: doesn't seem like you've changed. You still go out for
11:39
Speaker 2: coffees and you know, still go out and don't mind
11:44
Speaker 2: being in that world, you know, which some other athletes
11:47
Speaker 2: I've been around have sort of curtailed that.
11:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you like that, Yeah, I mean like it.
11:52
Speaker 1: I'm not sure.
11:53
Speaker 3: I mean I do enjoy I enjoy meeting our fans
11:56
Speaker 3: and in the right doses, Like I said, I like
11:59
Speaker 3: to like it to be you know, I don't want
12:01
Speaker 3: to go out and just completely be bombarded where I
12:03
Speaker 3: can't move and you know, do do my thing, do
12:05
Speaker 3: what I want to do. But I also want to
12:08
Speaker 3: keep some sense of normalcy, you know. I think that's
12:10
Speaker 3: important just for you know, my personal life and for
12:14
Speaker 3: me and my wife and Risa, just our life in general.
12:16
Speaker 3: I think it's important to be able to be normal.
12:18
Speaker 3: And I like being around people. I really do. Not
12:22
Speaker 3: always being I don't. I don't enjoy being the center
12:24
Speaker 3: of attention all the time, but I do like being
12:26
Speaker 3: out and seeing people, and it's cool to be to
12:29
Speaker 3: be that person, you know. I know a lot of
12:31
Speaker 3: guys don't do that. I understand completely, but I do
12:34
Speaker 3: think it gives you more of a personal aspect to
12:37
Speaker 3: your community and to be out and about and for
12:39
Speaker 3: people to see you. I do enjoy it, but obviously
12:42
Speaker 3: it's it's one of those things where we just have
12:44
Speaker 3: to prepare for going out.
12:45
Speaker 1: We kind of know how it's going to be. You know,
12:47
Speaker 1: you can't go out.
12:47
Speaker 2: And someone's going to take somebody half an hour might
12:49
Speaker 2: take you.
12:49
Speaker 3: Guys, you can't be grumpy that people are bugging you
12:53
Speaker 3: when you're the one that chose to go out to dinner.
12:55
Speaker 3: So it's like, you know, that's that's just part of it,
12:57
Speaker 3: and we pick and choose our spots.
13:00
Speaker 2: The Players Tribune later, I haven't talked to you since
13:03
Speaker 2: you wrote it. How important was that to you?
13:07
Speaker 1: It was?
13:07
Speaker 2: It was an unbelievable message to this fan base. Why'd
13:12
Speaker 2: you do it? And how important was it?
13:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, we thought of the idea after the season,
13:17
Speaker 3: just of the emotions of the season, how we finished,
13:20
Speaker 3: especially how we were able to finish at home those
13:22
Speaker 3: last couple of weeks, and just the energy and the
13:23
Speaker 3: city and really even after that, just the next couple
13:27
Speaker 3: of weeks of you know, walking around wherever it was,
13:31
Speaker 3: like you said, getting coffee, going out to breakfast, whatever,
13:33
Speaker 3: and just seeing the energy and the excitement from our
13:35
Speaker 3: fans and people would do it still even when we
13:38
Speaker 3: weren't playing well, but to see how many people were
13:41
Speaker 3: wearing Jag shirts and hats and just the city was
13:43
Speaker 3: just so behind us. So, you know, we talked about it,
13:46
Speaker 3: Me and my team talked about it, and just to
13:48
Speaker 3: be able to put something out there, just to let
13:49
Speaker 3: the fans know, like we we appreciate you guys, and
13:53
Speaker 3: we know it hasn't been. It hasn't always been the
13:55
Speaker 3: easiest road to where we're at now. But still not
13:59
Speaker 3: only that, and thanks for a great year, but there's
14:01
Speaker 3: more to come. That's not our ceiling. And I think
14:04
Speaker 3: that was to be able to try to convey both
14:07
Speaker 3: those things was important to me.
14:09
Speaker 2: Balance and have you always had a sense I was
14:11
Speaker 2: being the number one pick in the quarterback it goes
14:13
Speaker 2: with it, but you seem to have balanced well the
14:19
Speaker 2: inherent expectations of the franchise quarterback with the day to
14:24
Speaker 2: day if you follow them. I mean it's a pressure
14:27
Speaker 2: that's not easy. I know you knew that came with it.
14:31
Speaker 2: How have you balanced that over time? Just sort of
14:34
Speaker 2: knowing that that's there, but you got to perform every day. Yeah,
14:37
Speaker 2: I guess it's just about, yeah, focusing on the day
14:39
Speaker 2: to day.
14:40
Speaker 1: Right exactly.
14:41
Speaker 3: I think focusing on the moment in front of you.
14:43
Speaker 3: That's a huge thing in this league, not even just
14:46
Speaker 3: playing quarterback and you know, franchise talking about all that stuff,
14:49
Speaker 3: but just being successful and playing well in this league.
14:52
Speaker 3: I mean, that's what it's about. Just being able to
14:54
Speaker 3: focus on what's it right in front of you because
14:55
Speaker 3: it's so easy to get distracted.
14:57
Speaker 1: It's so easy to put pressure.
14:58
Speaker 3: On yourself because there are a lot of expectations, but
15:02
Speaker 3: you can't control that. And that's a good thing. I
15:04
Speaker 3: think with those it means you're doing something right if
15:06
Speaker 3: you have expectations, high expectations, so but but you still
15:10
Speaker 3: you can't focus on those. You have to be self driven,
15:13
Speaker 3: self motivated, and I think the culture that we have
15:16
Speaker 3: here really helps guys. Even last year, like I said,
15:20
Speaker 3: look at the way we started the year not great.
15:22
Speaker 3: I think the culture that we have that we've set
15:24
Speaker 3: here really helps guys stay in this bubble and stay
15:27
Speaker 3: focused on what's next.
15:28
Speaker 1: And we were able to.
15:29
Speaker 3: I mean, we had some games where we'd played terrible
15:32
Speaker 3: and we come in the next week and our staff
15:34
Speaker 3: did such a great job of just flipping the page
15:36
Speaker 3: and getting us. Obviously you have corrections to make because
15:39
Speaker 3: you played you didn't play well, but to be able
15:41
Speaker 3: to do what they did and convey the message of hey,
15:43
Speaker 3: we're moving on, there's another week, and we never felt
15:46
Speaker 3: like we were out of it, even sitting at where
15:48
Speaker 3: we four and eight.
15:49
Speaker 1: At one point, I think, yeah, yeah.
15:51
Speaker 3: For the Detroit game, even sitting at four and eight,
15:54
Speaker 3: we knew we pretty much had to win out to
15:55
Speaker 3: give ourselves a shot, but we never felt like we
15:57
Speaker 3: were out of it. So I think that's a you know,
16:01
Speaker 3: that's credit to our staff mainly of setting that culture,
16:04
Speaker 3: then myself and other leaders and players on the team
16:07
Speaker 3: buying in and just being able to create that atmosphere.
16:10
Speaker 2: Here got you last time we do here. It's called
16:12
Speaker 2: the ozone five. Five quick questions Trevor Lawrence. What was
16:20
Speaker 2: your last binge watch?
16:21
Speaker 1: Binge watch? Oh, so maybe be quick with me. I
16:25
Speaker 1: think about it. Binge watch. Oh, we were watching the
16:29
Speaker 1: Last of Us, but I don't think there's any new
16:31
Speaker 1: ones out right now.
16:33
Speaker 2: Best binge watch of all time for you?
16:35
Speaker 3: The best being watch. I mean we watched the most.
16:38
Speaker 3: The show we binged the most was probably Money Heist.
16:41
Speaker 3: I don't know if you guys have seen that.
16:42
Speaker 2: It's good.
16:45
Speaker 3: It's no, I don't think. I don't think you're too
16:48
Speaker 3: old for it. But it was a few years ago.
16:51
Speaker 3: It's maybe five or six years ago.
16:52
Speaker 1: Came out.
16:53
Speaker 2: Last song you heard this morning on your way.
16:54
Speaker 3: In last song, I don't think I even listened to
16:59
Speaker 3: music on the way. Sometimes I don't even listen.
17:00
Speaker 2: To music Okay, best player you've played with her against.
17:07
Speaker 3: That's a tough one. You can do one offense, one defense,
17:12
Speaker 3: that's fair. Yeah, defense, best players. I'm not going to
17:18
Speaker 3: do anyone currently on the team. But college, I'll just
17:21
Speaker 3: I'll do college college. Best player played with was priv
17:24
Speaker 3: to say, mm hmm, Christian Wilkins, Yeah he's up there.
17:30
Speaker 1: And then.
17:32
Speaker 2: Offensive, you can go to college since you don't want
17:35
Speaker 2: to anybody in the NFL.
17:36
Speaker 1: I'll do college offensive. I mean, Travis is up there.
17:40
Speaker 3: Travis and t I mean those those two guys are studs,
17:44
Speaker 3: so kind.
17:45
Speaker 2: Of happened to play on a pretty good team.
17:46
Speaker 1: So that's a tough exactly.
17:48
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want to pick and choose, so it's tough,
17:50
Speaker 3: you know. Then it's everything changed in the NFL.
17:52
Speaker 2: So play in the NFL. You're most proud of?
17:56
Speaker 1: One play most proud of?
17:58
Speaker 3: I don't know likes biggest moment.
18:02
Speaker 1: My two would probably be.
18:06
Speaker 3: The play against Dallas to Zay down the side deep one.
18:11
Speaker 3: That one and then the the Chargers two point conversion.
18:14
Speaker 3: That one was just the moment, not not necessarily my
18:17
Speaker 3: best player, my proudest want whatever, but the moment how
18:20
Speaker 3: big it was, like that was. I was so fired
18:23
Speaker 3: up after that play and put us within two. I mean,
18:26
Speaker 3: I think that just that was a cool moment.
18:28
Speaker 2: Fans might have voted for the stiff on stiff one.
18:32
Speaker 3: No, that's not making I wasn't even I probably got
18:34
Speaker 3: a minus on my technique grade sheet or what. I
18:36
Speaker 3: probablyn't even wanted to supposed to pull that ball, But
18:39
Speaker 3: now that was that was a good one too, if
18:40
Speaker 3: they love.
18:41
Speaker 2: It because it was Tennessee too, now and the snake
18:43
Speaker 2: was your call.
18:44
Speaker 1: Yeah, so just a little ad lib.
18:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, some guts which you don't mind doing.
18:50
Speaker 3: No, I think when the I think that's something that
18:54
Speaker 3: makes who I am as a player, having those those
18:56
Speaker 3: instincts and maybe the actually to know the right moment
19:01
Speaker 3: to know that you can do it, you can pull
19:02
Speaker 3: it off.
19:03
Speaker 1: I think is there's a fine line.
19:04
Speaker 3: I've been on the wrong end up doing not necessarily that,
19:07
Speaker 3: but you know, kind of testing the limits. So I've
19:10
Speaker 3: learned lessons doing that as well. But I think that
19:12
Speaker 3: kind of makes who I am as a player to
19:14
Speaker 3: be able to do that.
19:15
Speaker 2: Have you tried it with Doug and had it not work?
19:17
Speaker 1: Yet?
19:19
Speaker 3: Not not in an instance like that, there's definitely been times,
19:22
Speaker 3: especially my rookie year where and last year to trying
19:26
Speaker 3: to make certain throws and trying to do certain things
19:28
Speaker 3: where it's like what are you doing? You know, it's
19:32
Speaker 3: like trying to do too much. But plays like that,
19:35
Speaker 3: really we had a couple of them last year.
19:37
Speaker 2: As far as against Tennessee that was a little bit
19:40
Speaker 2: of an ad lib and then the sneak was it?
19:42
Speaker 1: So yeah, definitely and one against the Jets as well,
19:47
Speaker 1: So that was a couple of last year.
19:49
Speaker 2: Final question, person or people most responsible for you being.
19:54
Speaker 1: That's that's a great question.
19:56
Speaker 3: I would say definitely my familycuting, my wife Marissa, my parents, obviously,
20:03
Speaker 3: all the coaches I've had. I've really been blessed with
20:05
Speaker 3: some great coaches going back to high school. My high
20:07
Speaker 3: school head coach is awesome, I mean as a person
20:10
Speaker 3: and as a coach, and he helped kind of developed
20:15
Speaker 3: me and turned me who I became in college, and
20:18
Speaker 3: then same thing with coach Sweeney and Coach Streeter at
20:20
Speaker 3: Clemson and coach Elliott and then till now, all the
20:23
Speaker 3: coaches I've had so far in the NFL, I mean
20:25
Speaker 3: everyone's had their own part of my development and That's
20:29
Speaker 3: the cool part about this game is you come alongside
20:31
Speaker 3: people for certain parts of their journey, and you never
20:34
Speaker 3: know how you're going to impact them in theirs and
20:37
Speaker 3: you don't know which part of it is for them
20:39
Speaker 3: or for yourself. But just to be a part of
20:41
Speaker 3: a team where you're all heading in the same direction,
20:43
Speaker 3: I think that's the coolest part about this game. And
20:45
Speaker 3: to build those relationships and just help each other.
20:48
Speaker 2: Great perspective, Trevor, thanks for sharing it with us. I
20:51
Speaker 2: appreciate you joining the ozone podcast and look forward to
20:53
Speaker 2: work with you this year.
20:54
Speaker 1: Yes, sir. Thanks Sean
