• 0:01
  Speaker 1: How excited are you to be at the bank?
• 0:02
  Speaker 2: There's going to be a gap before you get to
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: play another one at home.
• 0:04
  Speaker 3: For a while.
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, it is. Got to make it count. We've
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: got a great team coming in.
• 0:11
  Speaker 4: We're excited to play them, but it's always good when
• 0:14
  Speaker 4: we get to play in front of our fans, especially
• 0:15
  Speaker 4: we have so limited games here this year. So we've
• 0:19
  Speaker 4: got to take full advantage of it, and we get
• 0:21
  Speaker 4: to wear the Prowlers this week, so we're happy about that.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: Does that get you going, wearing the throwbacks? You like those?
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: It doesn't get us going, but we look good in them,
• 0:29
  Speaker 4: and we feel good in them. So we're excited to.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Be in them.
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: What have you kind of seen as a response from
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: the team?
• 0:34
  Speaker 5: I know it's only been one practice, but how did
• 0:36
  Speaker 5: you feel like they kind of emerged today?
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, practice, we flew around today.
• 0:40
  Speaker 4: You know, a lot of competitive reps out there, offense
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: and defense. So I feel like we're responding well to
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: the adversity that we've dealt with last week. But we
• 0:51
  Speaker 4: moved on, and we're focused on the Patriots. And every
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: day is an important day for us, and we just
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: look forward to Sunday.
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: How important is it to bounce back?
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Very important. Very important to get a win today, this week.
• 1:08
  Speaker 6: Can you dwell on that?
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: How do you put it behind you and kind of
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: move forward?
• 1:12
  Speaker 7: No.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, no.
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: It's week two. We've got a lot of football left.
• 1:18
  Speaker 4: How are we going to respond? probably the biggest thing. But,
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: you know, we're looking forward to this week. We're preparing
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: our butts off at a very high level. Today was
• 1:28
  Speaker 4: a great example of that. So, you know, we have
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: a really good opponent. And, obviously, they played in the
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: Super Bowl last year, a lot of returning players. So,
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: you know, we've got to be.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: On our eye again.
• 1:43
  Speaker 6: Is determined to combat the pass rush by getting the
• 1:46
  Speaker 6: ball out quick, three-step drops, floating pocket and everything. How
• 1:49
  Speaker 6: difficult is it for a guy in your position to
• 1:53
  Speaker 6: avoid getting frustrated?
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: It is.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's a part of the game.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: You know, it comes with... being the guys at who
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: we are. But I think the whole defense knows that.
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: I think camp knows that. And, you know, we trust
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: our offense is going to do what they need to
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: do on that side of the ball. We need to
• 2:12
  Speaker 4: stop the run. First and foremost, that's our main priority.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: You know, they like to, they like to be a
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: tough physical team and we're a tough physical team. So,
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: you know, we got to do what we do best.
• 2:24
  Speaker 4: Rule number one, whoop a man. And if we play
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: with that mindset, you know, then it's going to open
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: up for us. So, You know, maybe it's going to
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: be a patient game, but you know, every op that
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: I can get, I got to take advantage of them.
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: If I don't get any ops, then, you know, at
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: least I'm stopping the run, doing what I can do
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: to affect the game in any way that I can
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: and Trey as well.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: And yeah, that's all I can ask for.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Speaking of Ron, how dangerous or how is Drake May
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: with his legs?
• 2:52
  Speaker 6: And is he similar in that sense to Bo Nix
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: and what you guys prepped for?
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: You would, you would think they will be, but they're
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: two different people. Um, I don't really want to compare
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: those two guys because they're too different, but Dre does
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: run a lot.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: Out the pocket.
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: I feel like Bo tries to extend plays behind the pocket,
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: and I think Dre steps up to run out the
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: pocket to get yards, so we have to be very
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: crucial on that. I know where he likes to step up,
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: where he likes to scramble to, and we just got
• 3:30
  Speaker 4: to control them as a defensive front.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: So, yeah. How tough is that running back punch? I mean,
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: they're good.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: You know, obviously last week they had a pretty solid game.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: You know, up front we got a huge challenge for
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: us this week. But, you know, it's all about us.
• 3:51
  Speaker 4: At the end of the day, you know, we know
• 3:53
  Speaker 4: what type of game it's going to be.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: We're not running away from nothing, nobody.
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: But again, that's a physical team. They want to be
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: physical up front. They want to marry the run and
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: the pass together. So we have to be on our
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: P's and Q's. If safeties have to tackle, they don't
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: have to tackle. If corners have to tackle, they don't
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: have to tackle. It's going to take all 11 on
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: our side to stop those two guys. And we're ready
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: for that challenge. Will how you respond tell you a
• 4:19
  Speaker 4: lot about what this team is, what this team's capable
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: of this season? I mean, how we respond is just
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: how we're supposed to play. You know, obviously, you know,
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: I want everybody to go out there and, you know,
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: be their best, you know, but I can tell you
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: for right now, we're all preparing that way. If we
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: can continue to practice at a very high level and
• 4:41
  Speaker 4: keep translating it to tomorrow, to Friday, have a good,
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: clean Saturday, then Sunday I think we just need to
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: play football.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: So that's kind of our expectations.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: We're not really looking forward to Sunday, but we did
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: have a great practice today, you know, prepare for tomorrow
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: and get after it then and then Friday, Saturday.
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: And then that confidence to get us to Sunday.
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: From what we saw, part of the practice we were in,
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: you guys worked on tackling drills, some fundamental drills. Everybody
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: had to go in. Even guys who don't play defense
• 5:11
  Speaker 6: in our special teams coverage were in that tackling drill
• 5:15
  Speaker 6: and everything, where the coach was trying to send a
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: little bit of a message to rework the fundamentals a
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: little bit or, you know, to– I mean, you can–
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: On those particular drills.
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: You know, I'm just doing what I'm told to do.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: You know, go in there, go tackle. Yes, sir. But
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: they had, like, Tootin' in there tackling all that. Tootin',
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: go in there and go tackle. Yes, sir. Just do what.
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: We asked to do, man.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: For me, the right landmarks, reading the right hole and,
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: you know, putting the ball where it's supposed to go.
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: How do you guys generate more explosive plays in the
• 5:55
  Speaker 6: run game this week?
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Like I said earlier, just being on the keys with
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: our details and, you know, targeting it right, and then,
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: you know, for the running backs in the holes right,
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: fast and physical, and I think once we do that, it.
• 6:06
  Speaker 7: Will be fun.
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: Where did you, with practice today, seem like the intensity
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: was a little higher?
• 6:11
  Speaker 8: Did you feel that out on the field?
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it definitely was.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: Coach harped on it, and we know we want to
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: come out, you know, with a higher intensity of practice,
• 6:19
  Speaker 3: and I think, you know, get after each other, and
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: We did that today.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Just how big is this game in regards to trying
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: to bounce back and get things.
• 6:26
  Speaker 6: Back on track?
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: I think it's big because it's the next game. Honestly,
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: it's not about the loss last week and getting back
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: on track. I think it's most important to us because
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: it's the next one coming up, so it's always important.
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: But I think the loss makes it a little more urgent.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: But like I said, it's another game that we just
• 6:47
  Speaker 3: have to prepare for and get ready for. The Patriots
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: have been really stingy with what they have allowed offenses
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: to do, only 16 points through two games. What kind
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: of challenges do they pose for you guys? I think
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: their defense plays pretty well, but I think our offense
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: plays well as well. We just have to be on
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: the screws with what we do best and go out
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: there and be explosive.
• 7:07
  Speaker 7: When you're going against an interior defensive lineman, names like
• 7:09
  Speaker 7: Christian Barmore, Milton Williams, some of the league's best interior
• 7:12
  Speaker 7: defensive linemen, does that impact the way you approach a
• 7:15
  Speaker 7: game or your preparation process?
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: I think we pay attention to it, but I don't
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: think we let it get out of our game plan
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: and our control. I think once we do the things
• 7:25
  Speaker 3: that we do best and we just play, you know,
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: hard and physical, you know, we'll be pretty good. How
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: would you kind of rate your performance through two games?
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: Like, what have you been happy with?
• 7:34
  Speaker 7: What do you still really want to work on?
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: I think the biggest takeaway that I've had on a
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: positive note is just playing fast and physical, you know,
• 7:43
  Speaker 3: being decisive and not overthinking anything. Then, you know, it's
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: a couple runs that, you know, could have popped for,
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: you know, a bigger, you know, rushing amount, but just
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: staying on the keys and staying true to, you know,
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: the run scheme and stuff like that is kind of
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: what I'm looking back on. And a couple of runs
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: I wish I would have had back, but just, you know,
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: looking at them and then, you know, improving on it.
• 8:04
  Speaker 8: Why were you guys working on tackling drills in practice?
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: Uh, we, that's the second time we did with special teams. Um,
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, it's pretty obvious, you know, why we did
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: tackling drills to improve on tackling, but, um, You know,
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: on the special teams, we fly around and, you know,
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: we hit people and tackle people. So I think just
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: being on the keys with that and, you know, just
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: working that technique and that form, you know, helps us
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: in the game.
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: But, Bay, we were noticing that guys, skill position guys
• 8:32
  Speaker 6: like yourself who don't necessarily play on coverage teams right
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: now are still in there having to participate in the
• 8:37
  Speaker 6: tackling role. Do you think the coaches are trying to
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: send a little.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: Bit of a message in any way?
• 8:41
  Speaker 3: I think it's always, you know, next man up mentality.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: You know, I might not be in there on a kickoff,
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: but it can come to a point in time in
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: a game where I have to be out there and
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: I have to be, you know, prepared and ready to
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: go out there and make a tackle. So I think
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: we all go through it just in case, you know,
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: we need to.
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: You're the center of attention right now.
• 9:00
  Speaker 8: Is that fun for you? Is it a distraction for you?
• 9:03
  Speaker 8: I mean, with your personality, I've got to admit, I
• 9:05
  Speaker 8: think maybe you're enjoying it a little bit.
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: I mean, that's never been my focus. It's just, I
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: just want to be the best teammate I can be.
• 9:13
  Speaker 5: Just come out here and just have some fun. And
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: that's ultimately what I've been doing. And it's been paying
• 9:18
  Speaker 5: off for me of just staying focused and not paying
• 9:20
  Speaker 5: attention to the noise.
• 9:21
  Speaker 8: You have made play after play after play after play.
• 9:24
  Speaker 8: It's gotten to the point where we're surprised when you
• 9:26
  Speaker 8: don't make a play.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: When did that start? Late last year? I mean, it's
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: just your level of consistency is off the charts right now.
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: I feel like we can go all the way back
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: in time of like when it started like we can
• 9:38
  Speaker 5: go back to college just I feel like I've always
• 9:40
  Speaker 5: believed in myself to be that guy it's just I
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: had to wait for my time and just when I
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: got here as a rookie learn from teammates in front
• 9:48
  Speaker 5: of me that were doing that were playing at a
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: high level and just being a sponge in that receiver
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: room and just continuing to attack the practice field as
• 9:55
  Speaker 5: if I was getting those opportunities each week and I
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: feel like now I'm starting to to get those opportunities
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: so just making the most of it and I just
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: want to have some fun out there and take it
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: one play at a time.
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: Do you do any different training? Don't be offended but
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: you look like.
• 10:11
  Speaker 8: A gymnast out there I mean the way that you
• 10:12
  Speaker 8: explode off the turf to go grab the ball the
• 10:15
  Speaker 8: way that you dive to get it I mean it
• 10:18
  Speaker 8: You ever done gymnastics? You do karate or do you
• 10:20
  Speaker 8: do anything that's different that gets you ready to play
• 10:23
  Speaker 8: the way that you do?
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: I would say nothing special.
• 10:27
  Speaker 5: You know, obviously we in the weight room. Staying in
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: shape is real important. Getting a lot of sleep is
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: real important. And ultimately just coming out here and just
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: being Parker, you know, and just being me. And I
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: feel like I was blessed to have these gifts. And
• 10:44
  Speaker 5: it's just been amazing. The big thing of my process
• 10:47
  Speaker 5: is putting the work in, and you're nothing without the work.
• 10:50
  Speaker 5: So I just hone in on that, and that's ultimately
• 10:53
  Speaker 5: what it is, just putting the time in.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: You pick up the phone and ask your sister what
• 10:56
  Speaker 2: she thinks? How does she grade you?
• 10:59
  Speaker 5: She's going to say, don't be a scrub.
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Don't be a scrub. Just don't be a scrub.
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: We always laugh when we talk on the phone, and
• 11:07
  Speaker 5: ultimately that's a big piece, just going out there and
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: just honing in on my process, taking it one day
• 11:12
  Speaker 5: at a time, one rep at a time, and just
• 11:14
  Speaker 5: being the best me.
• 11:15
  Speaker 8: You have 12 targets, far more than anyone else. There's
• 11:18
  Speaker 8: been some talk this week about spreading the wealth. Are
• 11:20
  Speaker 8: you good with that? Are you good with playing your part,
• 11:22
  Speaker 8: or do you like to see 12 targets?
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Let's just get the win.
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: That's all that matters, isn't it?
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Let's just get the win.
• 11:28
  Speaker 8: And your relationship with Trevor, I mean, he just smiles
• 11:31
  Speaker 8: whenever people ask about you. When did that turn on,
• 11:35
  Speaker 8: and does it just keep getting better, or do you
• 11:38
  Speaker 8: have to work at it every day?
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: You got to work at it each and every day,
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: you know, continue to make plays on the practice field
• 11:44
  Speaker 5: and make plays in the game, and As far as
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: just when it happened or when it's just being me
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: each and every day and ultimately just waiting my time
• 11:54
  Speaker 5: to be the person I know I can be, the
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: player I know I can be, and.
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: Just going out there and having fun.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: Let's just wrap on this thing.
• 12:01
  Speaker 8: Everyone marvels at how you're able to separate the business
• 12:04
  Speaker 8: side from the football side and essentially bet on yourself.
• 12:08
  Speaker 8: Was that a difficult decision? Did you make it all
• 12:10
  Speaker 8: by yourself? And do you still stand by it?
• 12:14
  Speaker 5: I just want to go out here and just play ball.
• 12:16
  Speaker 5: That's been my mindset this whole time. And, you know,
• 12:19
  Speaker 5: just letting everything else work itself out. But ultimately, we
• 12:22
  Speaker 5: have a job to do this week.
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: We got to go on and on. That's all I'm
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: focused on.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: And you've become a pro at media, too.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: That was a great night.
• 12:31
  Speaker 2: So I wanted to grab you while I could.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Are you ready?
• 12:35
  Speaker 8: Hey, before we talk about last week and about this
• 12:38
  Speaker 8: coming week, Tell me about the road to where you
• 12:40
  Speaker 8: are right now. Cause in 2023, you had the injury
• 12:43
  Speaker 8: and it was some uncertainty around your career. And now
• 12:45
  Speaker 8: here you are playing your best football. Tell me about
• 12:48
  Speaker 8: the process.
• 12:49
  Speaker 7: Definitely extremely blessed. No, I'm extremely blessed by God. Jesus
• 12:54
  Speaker 7: really blessed me and really took me on a road of,
• 12:56
  Speaker 7: you know, adversity to get back to where I am
• 12:58
  Speaker 7: right now, first and foremost. But, um, I just feel like,
• 13:02
  Speaker 7: you know, I work very hard, you know, with the
• 13:04
  Speaker 7: spinal abscess I had, uh, which is an infection in
• 13:07
  Speaker 7: the spine. Um, I wasn't really sure if I was
• 13:09
  Speaker 7: going to play football again. I wasn't really sure how
• 13:12
  Speaker 7: things were going to go as far as just living life.
• 13:14
  Speaker 7: But like I said, I prayed, and God answered my prayers,
• 13:18
  Speaker 7: and he's gotten me to this point today.
• 13:20
  Speaker 8: From that point, not knowing, to the certainty of playing
• 13:23
  Speaker 8: your best football, the emotional side of that as you
• 13:27
  Speaker 8: watch the tape, is there pride?
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Is there.
• 13:29
  Speaker 8: relief I mean how do you feel knowing that you're
• 13:32
  Speaker 8: playing your best football oh.
• 13:33
  Speaker 7: Just again extremely blessed man I mean like I said
• 13:36
  Speaker 7: from where I was to where I'm at right now
• 13:38
  Speaker 7: I mean I always had the confidence to do the
• 13:40
  Speaker 7: things I'm doing right now but I'm I couldn't do
• 13:43
  Speaker 7: anything without God.
• 13:44
  Speaker 8: So on the grass when did it turn when when
• 13:47
  Speaker 8: did you know oh I'm back.
• 13:49
  Speaker 7: Uh probably coming back after the obviously I played in
• 13:53
  Speaker 7: 2023 which which was all right you know but going
• 13:58
  Speaker 7: into 2024, making the plays I had and having an
• 14:01
  Speaker 7: extremely good year, in my opinion, that's when I felt
• 14:04
  Speaker 7: like I was back.
• 14:05
  Speaker 8: What did it mean to you at the end of
• 14:06
  Speaker 8: last season when Josh Hines-Allen was telling anybody and everybody
• 14:09
  Speaker 8: that would put a microphone in his face, you don't
• 14:11
  Speaker 8: need to talk to me, you need to go talk
• 14:12
  Speaker 8: to Devon, to know that people who know football understood
• 14:16
  Speaker 8: what you were doing?
• 14:17
  Speaker 7: You know, there's extreme respect, you know, I mean, he's
• 14:20
  Speaker 7: seen me obviously through that time and see me put
• 14:24
  Speaker 7: in work every single day and I tried my best
• 14:26
  Speaker 7: to be the best teammate and overall the best leader
• 14:29
  Speaker 7: I can be on this team. And he can, he
• 14:30
  Speaker 7: sees that and I appreciate him for it.
• 14:33
  Speaker 8: In layman's terms, people who don't know all the ins
• 14:35
  Speaker 8: and outs of football.
• 14:36
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 14:36
  Speaker 8: What are you doing right now that has you playing
• 14:39
  Speaker 8: at such a high level? Is it, is it technique? What,
• 14:42
  Speaker 8: what is it that's got you at that?
• 14:43
  Speaker 7: It's definitely technique, but it's also experience at this point.
• 14:46
  Speaker 7: You know, I've seen a lot of things over the
• 14:48
  Speaker 7: last seven years now and I'm, I got a lot
• 14:51
  Speaker 7: of good teammates to help me out with tips and
• 14:53
  Speaker 7: stuff like that. So it's really a combination of a
• 14:56
  Speaker 7: lot of things.
• 14:58
  Speaker 8: And Jeff Lagerman had the video he put out this week,
• 15:00
  Speaker 8: and he had people crowded around to see what you do.
• 15:03
  Speaker 8: Most people, you work in the dark, right? I mean,
• 15:05
  Speaker 8: for the most part, because guys can't see when the
• 15:07
  Speaker 8: pile gets there. So how is it to have people
• 15:11
  Speaker 8: pointing to you and saying, look at the way that
• 15:12
  Speaker 8: the guy's playing when you're so used to maybe not
• 15:15
  Speaker 8: having that adulation?
• 15:16
  Speaker 7: You know, I just give all the glory to God.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: That's all it is.
• 15:19
  Speaker 7: You know, just have fun with it.
• 15:20
  Speaker 8: Where does that come from?
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: My faith?
• 15:22
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, it's so strong. Have you always had that?
• 15:26
  Speaker 8: Did it come from your mom? Where'd it come from?
• 15:28
  Speaker 7: It's definitely grown. You know, it's just an example I
• 15:30
  Speaker 7: want to give to my children and the people who
• 15:32
  Speaker 7: look up, look at me. I don't want it to
• 15:34
  Speaker 7: be about me. I want it to be about Jesus Christ,
• 15:37
  Speaker 7: someone that I leaned on in dark times and I've
• 15:40
  Speaker 7: been working with and have built a relationship with.
• 15:42
  Speaker 8: And let's end on this. There's a response opportunity against
• 15:46
  Speaker 8: the Patriots. How much do you put into the value
• 15:50
  Speaker 8: of that response? This team responded last year after the
• 15:52
  Speaker 8: Houston loss. How do you see the team's ability to
• 15:56
  Speaker 8: respond this Sunday?
• 15:57
  Speaker 7: I know for sure we're just going to be physical
• 15:58
  Speaker 7: and we're going to be doing our job. So that's
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: all I can say.
• 16:02
  Speaker 8: And we'll leave it right there.
