Speaker 1: Up, y'all girl dad, Yeah, yeah, exciting, how exciting?
0:05
Speaker 2: Really excited. Yeah. Obviously first kid, so that's exciting, and
0:09
Speaker 2: then having a girl. It's new territory. So we're really
0:14
Speaker 2: really excited doing January. So it's the last training camp
0:16
Speaker 2: without a baby, so I'm gonna enjoy the more calmness
0:20
Speaker 2: that there is now. I'm sure then what it'll be
0:22
Speaker 2: like next year, but now we're really we're really pumped
0:25
Speaker 2: and excited for our first kid.
0:26
Speaker 3: That great timing.
0:26
Speaker 1: When you look at playoffs super like, you know.
0:30
Speaker 2: We'll make it work. Not everything always goes according to plan, right,
0:36
Speaker 2: I'm just tight. We signed out, we sat down to
0:39
Speaker 2: sign autographs and the go get stretched out.
0:43
Speaker 1: When you look at uh shot comes committed five hundred
0:47
Speaker 1: million dollars in the last four months to you, Josh
0:49
Speaker 1: and and Tyson. What does that say about maybe the
0:53
Speaker 1: talent you guys have and where you guys are headed
0:55
Speaker 1: in the confidence he has and you guys can.
0:56
Speaker 2: Get him there? Yeah, I mean it shows the belief
0:58
Speaker 2: that he has in us, and obviously that feels really
1:01
Speaker 2: good as players to have that from the owner and
1:03
Speaker 2: from the organization, and you know, you talk to us
1:06
Speaker 2: as a team the other night, and obviously won't go
1:08
Speaker 2: into everything he said, but just you know, the expectations
1:11
Speaker 2: are high and they should be around here, especially when
1:13
Speaker 2: he's putting you know, his money's time, all these things
1:16
Speaker 2: behind it and backing it and really putting a lot
1:18
Speaker 2: into it. He has high expectations for us. We have
1:20
Speaker 2: high expectations for ourselves, and we expect to win and
1:24
Speaker 2: times now. You know, we've kind of been we've we've
1:26
Speaker 2: been lingering around a little bit the last couple of years.
1:28
Speaker 2: But this is our opportunity when you take advantage of it.
1:30
Speaker 2: Does this year feel different? Year three in duck system here,
1:33
Speaker 2: fear in the league? Anything feel different about this year?
1:36
Speaker 2: I think you feel more comfortable every year, you know,
1:37
Speaker 2: just the schedule, understanding what training camp's like, the whole
1:41
Speaker 2: off season program. Having the same system now for the
1:43
Speaker 2: third year, that feels good. You know, some guys are
1:47
Speaker 2: in different systems every year and that's tough. In my
1:49
Speaker 2: first two years, obviously there there was a change. So
1:51
Speaker 2: it feels good being able to carry things over. And
1:53
Speaker 2: also in the off season you can work on little things,
1:56
Speaker 2: go more in depth, dive into some things that maybe
2:00
Speaker 2: you don't do well, personal game or in the offense
2:04
Speaker 2: that that we're gonna change, whether it's press coming to
2:06
Speaker 2: me about certain things or or whatever. You know, you
2:08
Speaker 2: can work on some of those things that you want
2:10
Speaker 2: to change moving forward instead of trying to learn a
2:12
Speaker 2: new system that can be tough and obviously set you
2:14
Speaker 2: back a little bit. So that feels good to be
2:16
Speaker 2: in the same offense for the third year and then
2:18
Speaker 2: just kind of understanding how it goes being a veteran
2:21
Speaker 2: now being around for a little bit obviously and more comfortable.
2:24
Speaker 2: But training camp is still training camp. You know, it's
2:26
Speaker 2: still a grind and you got to you got to
2:28
Speaker 2: make the most out of it. You gotta make the
2:29
Speaker 2: day's count because it flies by and you got to
2:31
Speaker 2: get ready for the season.
2:33
Speaker 1: This team being in sort of like prove it mode again.
2:36
Speaker 2: You know last year, you guys were the team that
2:38
Speaker 2: everyone was looking at.
2:39
Speaker 1: Okay, they're the class of the AFC and South, and
2:41
Speaker 1: now it's you know, Houston's getting all that love.
2:43
Speaker 2: Do you kind of like being in the role of
2:45
Speaker 2: having to prove it again? Yeah, I mean it's like
2:49
Speaker 2: twofold because obviously that means you probably didn't do as
2:51
Speaker 2: much as you wanted to do the year before. But
2:55
Speaker 2: you know, I think it's it's always fun being on
2:58
Speaker 2: this side of it where you want to prove it
3:00
Speaker 2: everybody wrong and you have a lot of people doubting you,
3:02
Speaker 2: and maybe there's not as many expectations from the outside.
3:05
Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't really matter. At the end of
3:06
Speaker 2: the day. You still got to go perform, and it
3:09
Speaker 2: matters really what goes on in this building and what
3:12
Speaker 2: we do out here getting ready for the season, and
3:15
Speaker 2: really the attitude of mindset that we have moving forward,
3:17
Speaker 2: that's really what matters. But I will say it is
3:20
Speaker 2: fun kind of being the overlooked team, and you do
3:22
Speaker 2: kind of enjoy that and you want to prove people wrong.
3:24
Speaker 2: But hopefully moving forward there's a lot of people saying
3:28
Speaker 2: that that we're good or we're great or whatever, saying
3:30
Speaker 2: good things, and we'll have to there'll be another challenge
3:32
Speaker 2: of ignoring that because that means we had a good
3:34
Speaker 2: year and we did what we were supposed to do.
3:36
Speaker 2: So obviously that's not where we're at this coming into
3:39
Speaker 2: this season, but it doesn't really matter. It's just a
3:41
Speaker 2: different set of challenges. But yeah, I think it is
3:43
Speaker 2: nice kind of having that getting overlooked a little bit.
3:47
Speaker 2: How much is Christian Kirk meant to you as a
3:49
Speaker 2: quarterback but also as a friend. Yeah, we're really close,
3:52
Speaker 2: really good friend you know, with him and Ozzie and
3:55
Speaker 2: you know, obviously my wife and Marissa, we're all we're
3:57
Speaker 2: all really tight. So I think having him obvily the
3:59
Speaker 2: play and the position he plays, the communication between a
4:03
Speaker 2: slot receiver like him and myself the quarterback, like that's
4:05
Speaker 2: important on the field and that chemistry you see out there,
4:08
Speaker 2: but I think it also ties into our relationship off
4:11
Speaker 2: the field and that's helped us be better on the field.
4:13
Speaker 2: And just being able to trust him. You know, he's
4:16
Speaker 2: a pro. He does everything the right way ever since
4:18
Speaker 2: he's been here, so I've always respected that and we've
4:21
Speaker 2: hit it off, you know personally just off the field
4:23
Speaker 2: and become really good friends too, So that always makes
4:25
Speaker 2: it easier. You know this. Obviously there's more important things
4:29
Speaker 2: in life than football, you know, your family, your faith,
4:31
Speaker 2: whatever those things are to each individual, But this is
4:34
Speaker 2: our life for seven months out of the year, however
4:37
Speaker 2: long it ends up being. So you want to be
4:38
Speaker 2: around people that you enjoy being around, that are your
4:41
Speaker 2: friends and build those relationships outside of here, or it's
4:44
Speaker 2: not it's not as fun. So you want to feel
4:45
Speaker 2: like you have friends in the building, have guys that
4:48
Speaker 2: you have great relationships with. And that's what I'm thankful
4:49
Speaker 2: for on our team is everyone is pretty tight. So
4:52
Speaker 2: I think that's important if your team moving forward, and
4:55
Speaker 2: it's something that we've really stressed this offseason is building
4:57
Speaker 2: those relationships because it matters. You know, I'm into the
5:00
Speaker 2: season when situations get tough. You know, you want to
5:02
Speaker 2: be able to count on the guy next to you
5:04
Speaker 2: and really know him, not just not just as a player,
5:06
Speaker 2: but as a person.
5:08
Speaker 1: With all the ailments that happened at the end.
5:09
Speaker 2: Of the season to you person, how long did it
5:12
Speaker 2: take for you to finally and feel one hundred percent
5:16
Speaker 2: It was probably going getting close to March, I'd say
5:20
Speaker 2: that's That's kind of what I would say is March.
5:22
Speaker 2: I felt pretty good, started training hard again. I did
5:26
Speaker 2: some stuff before that, but it was really just trying
5:28
Speaker 2: to get healthy and not pushed too too hard early
5:31
Speaker 2: so I could get my body back. But yeah, just
5:33
Speaker 2: a couple of things linger in and then you obviously
5:35
Speaker 2: nurse those the back half of the season and never
5:37
Speaker 2: have a chance to heal, so it takes some time
5:39
Speaker 2: to work through.
5:40
Speaker 1: It and being as durable as you've been a quarterback.
5:43
Speaker 2: I mean, it was this kind of a scary thing,
5:45
Speaker 2: having to rehab something that don't probably do you mean
5:50
Speaker 2: just during the season last year. Yeah, I think I
5:54
Speaker 2: wouldn't say as much scary as it was just frustrating.
5:57
Speaker 2: You know, it was frustrating not feeling like you're healthy
6:01
Speaker 2: every week, and that's something obviously in football, you're gonna
6:03
Speaker 2: deal with things every week that bother you and that
6:05
Speaker 2: nag you a little bit, but you know, not as
6:08
Speaker 2: not to the extent that some of the stuff I
6:09
Speaker 2: was dealing with isn't what I'm used to, So it is.
6:12
Speaker 2: It can be frustrating of going out there and not
6:15
Speaker 2: being able to practice full speed and not being able
6:17
Speaker 2: to get some of the reps that you want to get,
6:18
Speaker 2: and then going into the game and feeling like you're
6:20
Speaker 2: a little bit limited. But that's that's this business, and
6:24
Speaker 2: you got to kind of play the hand your delt.
6:26
Speaker 2: So that was a big emphasis this offseason is keeping
6:30
Speaker 2: my strength up and getting in great shape to where
6:33
Speaker 2: I can stay healthier. Obviously, there's you can't control everything.
6:35
Speaker 2: It's a physical game, and but you can control some
6:38
Speaker 2: of the hits you take, getting out of balance, getting down,
6:40
Speaker 2: getting rid of the ball, some of those things. To
6:41
Speaker 2: try to stay healthy so I can play my best
6:43
Speaker 2: down the stretch. So that's a big point of emphasis
6:45
Speaker 2: for me this year.
6:48
Speaker 3: Again.
6:48
Speaker 4: I mean, they're all out there, they're all cluff and everyone.
6:50
Speaker 4: When you talk to them, they're like every lawns with
6:53
Speaker 4: the like heaving and out there.
6:54
Speaker 2: Again, it's great having them, especially in camp. Uh sorry,
6:58
Speaker 2: I'm a little stuffed up today. Especially in camp win,
7:02
Speaker 2: Like these days get long, and you know, a week
7:04
Speaker 2: or two in, it's nice having some fans out there
7:07
Speaker 2: to add a little bit of juice because when you're
7:08
Speaker 2: out there, like there's some some practices that are closed
7:11
Speaker 2: to the fans and like, it feels so much more
7:13
Speaker 2: debt out there than when they're here. So it brings
7:15
Speaker 2: some juice to the players, and we really appreciate it.
7:17
Speaker 2: You know. It adds a little bit of extra motivation
7:20
Speaker 2: for us, and we enjoy getting to play in front
7:21
Speaker 2: of people. That's that's part of what we love about
7:23
Speaker 2: the game. And without them, you know, we wouldn't wouldn't
7:26
Speaker 2: have the game, So we appreciate them, and it's always
7:28
Speaker 2: good having them come out. I got to give it
7:30
Speaker 2: to him coming out at whatever time in the morning
7:32
Speaker 2: and it's already ninety degrees. As a fan, that's some commitment.
7:37
Speaker 2: So I appreciate them coming.
7:38
Speaker 3: Out and that sort of beyond your own beyond your
7:42
Speaker 3: own injury situation. How difficult was it for you to
7:45
Speaker 3: try to, you know, pick up Christian the last six
7:49
Speaker 3: weeks of the season, knowing how terrible he felt, not
7:52
Speaker 3: just for his own injury situation, but feeling like he
7:55
Speaker 3: almost like let the team down.
7:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think obviously it's hard dealing with injuries,
8:02
Speaker 2: especially when you're a player like Christian who's such a
8:04
Speaker 2: big contributor to the team. But it's football, and you
8:07
Speaker 2: understand that things happen that you can't control, you know,
8:10
Speaker 2: injury like his, it's pretty serious, and so obviously you
8:14
Speaker 2: want him out there because he helps our team. But
8:16
Speaker 2: there's really not There's nothing he can do. So I'm
8:18
Speaker 2: just trying to keep him up, and I think everyone
8:20
Speaker 2: did a good job of just encouraging him and checking
8:22
Speaker 2: in on him, and he did a good job handling
8:23
Speaker 2: his rehab and he tried his hardest to come back,
8:25
Speaker 2: and it just didn't work out and obviously didn't make
8:27
Speaker 2: the playoffs, So who knows whatld happened if we would
8:29
Speaker 2: have won that game in Tennessee. But I know he
8:32
Speaker 2: was trying his hardest to come back, which was crazy
8:34
Speaker 2: to even see that, you know, that kind of injury
8:36
Speaker 2: and he was, you know, kind of considering trying to
8:39
Speaker 2: push to come back. That shows the Yeah, he didn't
8:42
Speaker 2: have to do that. You know, that's a guy who's
8:43
Speaker 2: made a lot of money, he's been, has proven himself
8:45
Speaker 2: in this league, who's been a great player for us,
8:47
Speaker 2: and honestly, probably shouldn't have come back last season after
8:50
Speaker 2: that injury and him trying to come back to help
8:52
Speaker 2: the team, I think that says enough about who he is.
8:54
Speaker 2: But you know, he's a guy that obviously everybody needs
8:57
Speaker 2: some encouragement, but he you know, he takes care of
8:59
Speaker 2: his business. I think he has a really good head
9:01
Speaker 2: on his shoulders and had a good perspective. But yeah,
9:04
Speaker 2: it's never easy being hurt and just having to watch,
9:06
Speaker 2: especially when he got hurt, how much we struggled. You know,
9:09
Speaker 2: it seemed like we couldn't find our groove. I know
9:12
Speaker 2: that was tough for him and he wished he could
9:13
Speaker 2: be out there, but you know, at the end of
9:14
Speaker 2: the day, we got to pick him up. You know,
9:16
Speaker 2: we got to have guys step in. I got to
9:17
Speaker 2: play better. A lot of things went wrong down the stretch.
9:20
Speaker 2: That isn't just to do with with him, but you know,
9:22
Speaker 2: all of us have to have to pick up that forever.
9:25
Speaker 2: What are your early impressions of the defense that Ryan
9:27
Speaker 2: Yssen's installing.
9:28
Speaker 1: I know practice has been unpadded throughout the offseason, just
9:31
Speaker 1: from what you've been able.
9:32
Speaker 2: To see, Yeah, I don't want to give too much away,
9:35
Speaker 2: but you know, very physical. You know, the intensity is
9:39
Speaker 2: super high over there, a lot of energy. The defensive
9:41
Speaker 2: staff has been great, really detailed. The guys are harping
9:45
Speaker 2: on the details all the time, but I'd say the
9:47
Speaker 2: physicality is definitely the biggest difference, you know, at the line,
9:50
Speaker 2: on the outside, wherever, just really everywhere. I think that's
9:54
Speaker 2: been a point of emphasis and you can see it,
9:56
Speaker 2: and there's every throw seems to be contested. It seems
9:59
Speaker 2: to to be a little bit of traffic, which is
10:02
Speaker 2: which is for the quarterback. Not good, but it's good
10:05
Speaker 2: to see your defense doing that, and it challenges us
10:07
Speaker 2: and it's gonna present some challenges this training camp that
10:09
Speaker 2: are gonna make us better as an offense too.
10:11
Speaker 4: Third year, now, everything you say the same or do
10:16
Speaker 4: you make changes as far as how much you throw
10:19
Speaker 4: in camp and also your want for the preseason. If
10:22
Speaker 4: you guys discussed how much you'll play as far as games.
10:26
Speaker 2: Yeah, good question. We haven't discussed the games yet. You know,
10:29
Speaker 2: I'm under the impression that's probably gonna stay as it
10:31
Speaker 2: has as it has in the past until I talk
10:33
Speaker 2: with them. I haven't talked with him yet about that.
10:35
Speaker 2: Usually we wait until we get a little further in camp,
10:37
Speaker 2: but so we'll see. I don't have an answer for
10:39
Speaker 2: that right now. And then for practice now, I'm playing
10:43
Speaker 2: on taking all the reps with the first group and
10:45
Speaker 2: then mixing in some other guys with me as well.
10:47
Speaker 2: Just you know, we're talking about Christian last year an
10:50
Speaker 2: example of that of him going down and having Parker
10:54
Speaker 2: or whoever step up. And Parker was coming off injury
10:57
Speaker 2: coming into his rookie year, so he didn't get the
10:58
Speaker 2: spring and missed a little bit of Trey any camp
11:00
Speaker 2: with us, and then came back and then he got
11:02
Speaker 2: hurt in the season right away too on the punt return,
11:05
Speaker 2: so and then he was asked to step in at
11:07
Speaker 2: the end of the year and really take all the
11:08
Speaker 2: reps as a starting slot receiver from then on, and
11:11
Speaker 2: he did a great job adjusting. But it did felt
11:13
Speaker 2: like we were having to play catch up because maybe
11:15
Speaker 2: we didn't prepare enough on the front end for someone
11:19
Speaker 2: is gonna go down at some point. You don't want
11:20
Speaker 2: that to happen, but if it does happen, you gotta
11:22
Speaker 2: be ready. So mixing in guys where I get reps
11:25
Speaker 2: with you know, six, seven, eight different receivers that could
11:28
Speaker 2: possibly be in there if something were to happen or
11:30
Speaker 2: just roll in there, you got to keep guys fresh.
11:32
Speaker 2: So I think that's an emphasis too, is getting reps
11:34
Speaker 2: with those guys, not just the starting group, but the
11:37
Speaker 2: guys that could roll in there, because you never know
11:39
Speaker 2: when you're gonna when you're gonna lean on those guys
11:41
Speaker 2: and they have to make plays and you got to
11:42
Speaker 2: have the chemistry. So that's a big point of this
11:45
Speaker 2: as far as reps and practice, I plan on, you know,
11:47
Speaker 2: being being the same. You know, they they mentioned they
11:49
Speaker 2: might roll CJ. Mack in there a little bit with
11:51
Speaker 2: the ones to get them some reps and chemistry with
11:53
Speaker 2: those guys just in case, you know, stuff like that,
11:55
Speaker 2: which is which perfectly fine. So I'll just you know,
11:58
Speaker 2: us and myself and the coaches will kind of figure
11:59
Speaker 2: that out and move forward with that.
12:01
Speaker 1: We're gonna finish with the Medris Olivia and Mark's the
12:03
Speaker 1: last one.
12:04
Speaker 2: So Trevor, just the league seems to be moving towards
12:07
Speaker 2: eighteen games as the regular season schedule. I'm just curious
12:10
Speaker 2: from a player's perspective, if.
12:11
Speaker 3: You've given any thought to that or how that would
12:14
Speaker 3: look like, or just just your general feelings, aren't it.
12:17
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good question. It's a lot of games,
12:22
Speaker 2: so I think there has to be some give. You know,
12:25
Speaker 2: it's a lot of games on the players, and it's
12:27
Speaker 2: already Seventeen's a lot when we when I went from
12:29
Speaker 2: sixteen to seventeen, So you know, maybe if there's two
12:33
Speaker 2: bye weeks. I don't really know what the conversations are there.
12:35
Speaker 2: I'm not I haven't been involved in those, so I
12:36
Speaker 2: don't know. I don't have an answer for it, but
12:38
Speaker 2: I think you have to add some type of extra
12:41
Speaker 2: break if you're gonna add an extra game because that's
12:43
Speaker 2: that's a lot, and you're not even talking playoffs and
12:45
Speaker 2: preseason on top of that. So how that all adjusts,
12:48
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I think if you do that,
12:50
Speaker 2: you got to give something up to get to give
12:52
Speaker 2: the guys a little bit of a break for their bodies.
12:54
Speaker 2: All right, hopefully easy question for you.
12:56
Speaker 3: And the off season you were seen playing with NFL
12:58
Speaker 3: quarterbacks and cool high school kids as well.
13:01
Speaker 2: What was that like for you.
13:02
Speaker 3: To kind of build those relationships with other NFL quarterbacks and.
13:05
Speaker 1: Potentially guys who could be receiving your throws in the NFL.
13:09
Speaker 2: What are you talk talking about specifically?
13:13
Speaker 3: Oh?
13:13
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, got you, yes, So yeah that was last week?
13:16
Speaker 2: Was recently. Yeah, I went out there. It was great
13:18
Speaker 2: to see Brock and I know some of the other
13:20
Speaker 2: guys around the league out there to Nathan Peterman was
13:22
Speaker 2: out there, and we had a group of high school
13:25
Speaker 2: guys catching. So it's cool when all those different worlds collide.
13:28
Speaker 2: And I obviously I remember when I was in high school,
13:30
Speaker 2: if I had the opportunity to be out there with
13:32
Speaker 2: guys that play in the NFL, would have loved that.
13:34
Speaker 2: And the guys that were catching for us really enjoyed it,
13:37
Speaker 2: and we're asking us some questions and just enjoyed being
13:40
Speaker 2: out there and getting that opportunity. So and for us,
13:43
Speaker 2: it's great to have guys to catch. Sometimes in the offseason,
13:45
Speaker 2: everyone's spread out. The guys in the team usually are
13:47
Speaker 2: in a lot of different places and traveling and enjoying
13:49
Speaker 2: the break and just trying to get some family time in.
13:51
Speaker 2: So it's nice to have some some bodies and some
13:53
Speaker 2: hands to catch. But yeah, I've always really liked Brock,
13:57
Speaker 2: you know, I've known them for a couple of years now,
13:59
Speaker 2: and the way he carries them off. I've always had
14:00
Speaker 2: a lot of respect for that, and you know, it's
14:02
Speaker 2: it's always fun getting together with him. But yeah, it's good.
14:06
Speaker 1: And on this one, we've talked about this before. So
14:09
Speaker 1: much goes into turnovers, But where does that rank on
14:12
Speaker 1: your to do list? To get that number down so
14:17
Speaker 1: that it's maybe what's what's a manageable number for you? You
14:20
Speaker 1: know going in the season?
14:21
Speaker 2: What did what do you zero? No? I mean, how
14:25
Speaker 2: how much does that.
14:26
Speaker 1: Bother you going into your core?
14:29
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think if you look at my career, you know,
14:31
Speaker 2: my rookie year, just making decisions throwing the ball probably
14:35
Speaker 2: wasn't great or wasn't great, and I think I've made
14:38
Speaker 2: a big improvement on that. You know, interceptions the type
14:40
Speaker 2: I mean, obviously we throw the ball a lot. You're
14:43
Speaker 2: going to have some interceptions. Stuff's going to happen. But
14:45
Speaker 2: I think for the most part the last two years,
14:47
Speaker 2: decisions have been good. Obviously you're going to have a
14:50
Speaker 2: few every once in a while that aren't great decisions.
14:52
Speaker 2: You know, playing quarterback, throwing the ball a lot, that's
14:54
Speaker 2: going to happen, But it's more of what I've talked
14:57
Speaker 2: about in the past is just the ball security in
14:58
Speaker 2: the pocket and then space running and not putting the
15:00
Speaker 2: ball on the ground. That's something that I control. That's
15:03
Speaker 2: easier to control, honestly, I think then sometimes the passing game,
15:06
Speaker 2: So that's really what I got to fix. So I'll
15:08
Speaker 2: put a big emphasis on that of just securing the
15:10
Speaker 2: ball in the pocket when I'm moving around, when I'm scrambling.
15:14
Speaker 2: That's something that obviously got to fix. And you gotta
15:16
Speaker 2: limit turnovers. That's the number one key in games to
15:19
Speaker 2: winning or losing is do you have how many times
15:21
Speaker 2: you turn the ball over. How many turnovers do you
15:22
Speaker 2: get as a defense, and obviously as an offense, we
15:25
Speaker 2: control when we give the ball away, so you got
15:28
Speaker 2: to be able to limit that. How do you fix it?
15:30
Speaker 2: I mean you hold it high.
15:31
Speaker 1: You're trying to hold it higher when you run, when
15:32
Speaker 1: you scramble.
15:33
Speaker 2: Just being smart, you know, knowing when you know. Some
15:35
Speaker 2: some situations, no one to take a sack. A lot
15:38
Speaker 2: of them are coming from you're getting you're getting tackled
15:41
Speaker 2: and you're trying to escape, so you're you know, the
15:42
Speaker 2: ball gets loose or whatever, and then it gets hit
15:44
Speaker 2: from somebody else. That's one instance if you're getting sacked.
15:47
Speaker 2: Just sometimes you just got to take it and go
15:48
Speaker 2: down in space, tucking it, not getting wide, you know,
15:52
Speaker 2: taking certain hits. And then in the pocket, yeah, it's
15:56
Speaker 2: two hands, it's tight to the body. When you feel
15:57
Speaker 2: the pocket collapsing, it's being able to tuck it. All
15:59
Speaker 2: those and that's stuff that you just drill and work
16:01
Speaker 2: and you sometimes it's hard because you don't simulate, you
16:04
Speaker 2: don't get hit in practice, but you gotta find ways
16:07
Speaker 2: to drill it, whether it's with pads, with coaches, you know,
16:09
Speaker 2: with the little punch er things, whatever you want to
16:12
Speaker 2: call them. You know, stuff like that that that that
16:14
Speaker 2: stuff does work, builds muscle memory, but you just got
16:17
Speaker 2: to keep doing it. Awesome, Thank y'all,
