• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Ke's doing KEYLB is doing awesome. We we were
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: very excited just during the draft process. We thought, based
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: on his skill set, what he showed on tape, that
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: he'd be able to make that transition and play more
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: UH as safety. And he hasn't disappointed. He's done a
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: tremendous job. Every day's a new day, you know, every
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: every rep is a new rep.
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: So he's learning.

• 0:31
  Speaker 2: tremendous job of picking it up.
• 0:33
  Speaker 3: I think he's super athletic.
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: I think he's got a very high ceiling in this league,
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: and I'm excited to see him continue to grow, uh
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: within the schemes of our defense.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: So how hard is it for tribs going back and forth?
• 0:47
  Speaker 4: How's he handling that? And especially the.

  Speaker 5: Part of Yeah, I don't know if I can speak
• 0:51
  Speaker 5: on how hard it is for him.
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: I know that he's done a tremendous job through this
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: whole process. Anytime you're transitioning from from college in the NFL,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: obviously there's gonna be a huge learning curve on one
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: side of the ball. So the fact that he's doing
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: it on both sides of the ball. I think just
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: speaks to his character, speaks to how he's he's wired mentally.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: He's done a tremendous job of bouncing back and forth.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: You know, obviously, when when he's with the offense, he's
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: he's he's working with those guys. But when he's with us,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: he does a good job. In the meeting rooms, he
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: does a great job picking it up. I know that
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: Milo does a good job working with him one on one,
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: and then our assistant Drew does a tremendous job. He'll
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: take him one on one on the side and just
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: help him get caught up to speed on some of
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: the stuff that he may miss.
• 1:37
  Speaker 5: But just the fact that he's been able to function.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: And navigate going and playing on both sides of the
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: ball up to this point, in my mind, speaks he
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: speaks to the world of who he is as a
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: player and as a person. And then obviously, you guys
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: see what he's able to do on the field on
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: both sides of the ball. So he's a tremendous talent.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: I'm excited he's here with us. I'm excited that we
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: get to use him when we get to use him,
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: and yeah, we'll see how it continues to grow, the.
• 2:01
  Speaker 6: First time you saw him on the field, you thought
• 2:04
  Speaker 6: the first time you got him out.
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean so w SA same thing with Caleb
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: w As you're going through the draft process, You've got
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: a pretty good idea of who he is as a player,
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: who he is athletically, and what you saw on tape.
• 2:18
  Speaker 5: Very extremely fluid athlete.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: Uh, got a great burst, just super athletic, great body control,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: tremendous ball skills. So that's kind of what you were
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: anticipating when he got here.
• 2:31
  Speaker 3: And then when you start.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Plugging him in on defense at corner, even though he
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: doesn't know everything, you see all those traits that you
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: expect to see start to show up.
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: And and so it's it's been exciting.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Like I said, I'm I'm I'm fired up that we
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: get to have and we get to use him, and
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: I'm excited to.
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: See what this season brings and what he's able to do.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: For us on both sides of the ball.
• 2:51
  Speaker 7: He mentioned that he might not know everything, but are
• 2:53
  Speaker 7: there times when the football archeue and the instincts kinda
• 2:57
  Speaker 7: he kind of figures it out.
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, Yeah, I mean, uh, he's he he's.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: He's a he's a football player, right, He's a he's
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: a really good football player. And and he he's the
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: type of guy no matter what he does, he finds.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: A way to be successful.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Or we had a a corner the tournament the other
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: day and you just see him tossing bean bag there,
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: just going in one right after the other. I mean, what,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: whatever he does, he's gonna be successful. So yeah, you
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: definitely see just his his inherent skills take over and
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: he'll continue to grow, continue to learn. Uh, he'll continue
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: to learn the defenses, will continue to you know, holing
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: into some of the technicalities or what what we're asking
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: him to do. But at the end of the day,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: he's a really good football player, and he's he's gonna
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: find a way to make the play, which is what
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: he's done up to this point.
• 3:41
  Speaker 6: Is he really like smiling, laughing, joking around, having a
• 3:45
  Speaker 6: good time all the time?
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: Is he like is he always in a good he
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: He's he's a he's a genuine person.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Like he really is.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: When when he's on the field and he's locked in,
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: he's locked in. But you can tell he's a great teammate.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: When you watch him interact with the rest of the players. Uh,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: every time that we get a chance to interact with
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: him in meetings, he he's he's bright eyed, he's ready
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: to go. So I think how he interacts with us
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: in this building and how he is out in public
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: with what everybody sees, I think it's one and the
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: same person. I think he's very genuine, he's authentic to
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: who he is, and.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: He's just a great human being.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: It's hard not to.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I if you found anybody in this world that
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: didn't like him, I'd i'd I'd call bs on that.
• 4:29
  Speaker 4: I went the jackal.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: I was ecstatic. I was ecstatic.
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, he's a tremendous talent.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Like I said, you go through the draft process and
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: you see the type of athlete he is and what
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: he's able to do on both sides of the ball,
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: and then all of a sudden you find out that
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: he's gonna be a jag.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: I'm fired up.
• 4:47
  Speaker 4: What has this.
• 4:47
  Speaker 8: Process been like, obviously with a lot of new coaches
• 4:51
  Speaker 8: in terms of I mean first time head coach, yeah,
• 4:53
  Speaker 8: sack coordinators, of what's the adjustment been like, what's it like.
• 4:56
  Speaker 9: Being around those kind of it's uh, it's excite.
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: It's always a exciting.
• 5:00
  Speaker 9: Because like for me, it's it's so cool and you
• 5:04
  Speaker 9: need to be able to build something from the ground
• 5:06
  Speaker 9: up and just put your own spin on it, you know.
• 5:10
  Speaker 9: That's that's what this time of year usually is like
• 5:14
  Speaker 9: and other places I've been or in the past, when
• 5:17
  Speaker 9: you're when you're trying to improve from the year before,
• 5:21
  Speaker 9: you try to strip apart what you did the year
• 5:24
  Speaker 9: before and then put it back together to see where
• 5:26
  Speaker 9: the issues were. And I think the nice thing when
• 5:30
  Speaker 9: you're new is like it's it's a little easier to
• 5:33
  Speaker 9: do that because you have to, you know. So it's
• 5:36
  Speaker 9: been fun learning all the guys and learning what they're
• 5:39
  Speaker 9: capable of and what like what our staples will have
• 5:43
  Speaker 9: to be moving forward.
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: You have some i would say, a good truck returners
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: to your group. What's it been like to kind of
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: learn from them as well and what they know.
• 5:54
  Speaker 3: It's it's been great.
• 5:55
  Speaker 9: Like I do, I do take a lot of pride
• 5:57
  Speaker 9: in being open minded and definitely listen to the players
• 6:01
  Speaker 9: because the players know the issues before we do. You know,
• 6:04
  Speaker 9: we we we obviously know it on paper and me
• 6:08
  Speaker 9: and we plan for it and we try to teach
• 6:11
  Speaker 9: it based off of our past experiences, but the issues
• 6:15
  Speaker 9: come up to them faster than they do with us
• 6:18
  Speaker 9: because they're the ones on the grass. So that's that's
• 6:22
  Speaker 9: the biggest takeaway I take from those guys. But these
• 6:25
  Speaker 9: guys have been great as far as being open minded
• 6:27
  Speaker 9: and learning different ways of doing things that they've probably
• 6:31
  Speaker 9: done in the past.
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: Communication that defense is so important. We've seen it what doesn't.
• 6:36
  Speaker 8: Work and in line back through A really huge part
• 6:38
  Speaker 8: of that is that something you really stress, especially this.
• 6:41
  Speaker 9: Time of year before you get Yeah, we stress it
• 6:43
  Speaker 9: and we take a lot of pride in it. We
• 6:46
  Speaker 9: talk about it on all three levels. But in our
• 6:50
  Speaker 9: room it's it's oftmost importance. It's life or death, you know,
• 6:56
  Speaker 9: really to us, and the guys embrace it. Know, on
• 7:01
  Speaker 9: a given play, if the communication wasn't good, it's it's
• 7:03
  Speaker 9: our responsibility and when you get it right, yes, So
• 7:11
  Speaker 9: just you know, going through the process, what really stood
• 7:14
  Speaker 9: out to you about Jack Kaiser and you know what
• 7:15
  Speaker 9: he can maybe bring to the table on and what
• 7:17
  Speaker 9: have you seen working with him so far? Jack Kaiser
• 7:20
  Speaker 9: first and foremost is super high level intelligence problem solver, communicator,
• 7:30
  Speaker 9: and by the way, he was able to still get
• 7:32
  Speaker 9: people down on the ground and and you know, be
• 7:34
  Speaker 9: athletic and be a high quality football player. So that
• 7:38
  Speaker 9: combination is is not a given. So he also did
• 7:43
  Speaker 9: it on the championship team, so it you know, what
• 7:48
  Speaker 9: he was able to do during this time there was
• 7:50
  Speaker 9: impressive and I think it translated to what we do
• 7:53
  Speaker 9: in our league.
• 7:54
  Speaker 8: Absolutely, it's the adjustment then obviously everybody's new right now,
• 7:59
  Speaker 8: kind of getting acclimated and.
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: Learning your group and you play.
• 8:04
  Speaker 5: It's been a lot of fun.
• 8:06
  Speaker 6: I think one of the things that I value as
• 8:09
  Speaker 6: a coach is the relationships. You know, That's why I
• 8:11
  Speaker 6: originally got into coaching. It's you know, eventually they tell
• 8:15
  Speaker 6: you got to stop playing, and for some of us
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: that's longer than others. One of the things that, like
• 8:22
  Speaker 6: I said, I kind of cherish with that feeling in
• 8:24
  Speaker 6: the locker room that you had, and as a coach
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: it's not quite the same, but.
• 8:30
  Speaker 5: That's as close as I could get.
• 8:31
  Speaker 6: So it's been great getting to know guys. It's been
• 8:34
  Speaker 6: great spending time with some of the guys outside of
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: the building and really getting to see, like who they
• 8:38
  Speaker 6: are as a person and watching this group coming together,
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: but it it's a fun group. But they know how
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: to work, so they make it really easy when it's
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: time to get out there on the grass.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: Are any veteran players that you kind of lean on
• 8:51
  Speaker 4: a little bit to help you kind of working out
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: exactly how the same.
• 8:55
  Speaker 9: Group is going to come to do.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: We got great bets, you know.
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: I mean, Eric has a wealth of ex experience and knowledge.
• 9:02
  Speaker 6: Obviously d ham odd, but adding him to the room smooth,
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: adding him to the room kind of josh. Everybody has
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: different experiences and everybody's got a little bit different play style,
• 9:14
  Speaker 6: a little different skill set. But the one thing that
• 9:16
  Speaker 6: I love about the vets is like they're very open
• 9:19
  Speaker 6: to helping the young players, right and I and I
• 9:22
  Speaker 6: think it's important as a coach to remember that that
• 9:26
  Speaker 6: player to player learning is really important and sometimes it's
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: going to mean maybe even a little more coming from
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: a VET than a coach, which is okay. I certainly
• 9:37
  Speaker 6: have learned a lot more from players than they've probably
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: ever learned from me.
• 9:45
  Speaker 10: Nice to meet.
• 9:46
  Speaker 8: Let's let's continue with smooth since I talked to him
• 9:49
  Speaker 8: the smooth thing, and of course not of her, not
• 9:51
  Speaker 8: six seven years now, but I know.
• 9:53
  Speaker 4: He mentioned, of course, oh yeah, how much have you
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: been stumping?
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: Maybe drop and see their about that relationship?
• 10:01
  Speaker 6: Well, maybe bringing it back to Jacks, I think whenever
• 10:04
  Speaker 6: you can bring a player into the room, one of
• 10:08
  Speaker 6: his character and.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: His certain of his ability.
• 10:15
  Speaker 6: And his experience and mix that with the familiarity, I
• 10:20
  Speaker 6: think that's really important.
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: I think that he knows what he's getting with me.
• 10:25
  Speaker 6: I certainly know what I'm getting with him, and a
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: lot of the players are familiar with him, so that
• 10:30
  Speaker 6: was really an easy transition. I would say the room
• 10:32
  Speaker 6: probably welcomed him with open.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: Arcs, as did I.
• 10:36
  Speaker 6: So as far as like dropping any hints, I certainly
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: stated my case of why I thought he would be
• 10:43
  Speaker 6: a good victuation.
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: Why Jacks, about why are you here?
• 10:47
  Speaker 11: What was your story to end up here?
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: I just felt like this was a really good opportunity.
• 10:55
  Speaker 6: When you looked at the roster, where you look at
• 10:58
  Speaker 6: the division, when you look at the staff that coach
• 11:01
  Speaker 6: Colin was putting me down there, it was really an
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: easy choice for me to want to be here and
• 11:06
  Speaker 6: be a part of this.
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: How did you end up here?
• 11:09
  Speaker 8: How did Jacksonville have his job come up from where's
• 11:12
  Speaker 8: the connection?
• 11:12
  Speaker 7: How did you Anthony Campanelli. Yeah, we worked together at
• 11:17
  Speaker 7: Boston College and we really only worked there for a year,
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: but I knew him when I was coaching at the Giants.
• 11:27
  Speaker 12: He was a high school coach in New Jersey.
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: And so.
• 11:33
  Speaker 12: He would reach out and see if he could come
• 11:35
  Speaker 12: to OTAs or come to preseason camp, or you know,
• 11:40
  Speaker 12: if I was maybe speaking at a high school clinic
• 11:42
  Speaker 12: in New Jersey, he would come.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: So I met him back then. But then we actually
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: worked together at Boston College just for one calendar year,
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: and then he went on to University of Michigan, but
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: I stayed in touch with him, and then the same
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: thing analyst traitor recording him In no way I respect more.
• 12:01
  Speaker 10: Than Anthony is just to.
• 12:04
  Speaker 7: A very genuine human being, I will say that for sure.
• 12:07
  Speaker 13: And so anyways, when he had this opportunity, he reached
• 12:10
  Speaker 13: out to me and asked me if I'd be interested
• 12:13
  Speaker 13: in something like this.
• 12:13
  Speaker 4: And of course I was so much of this uh
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: job situation. Itout relationship grey.
• 12:21
  Speaker 8: It all is knowing you can trust him exa here
• 12:25
  Speaker 8: and excit. It's kind of obviously it's the first time
• 12:28
  Speaker 8: he's been a dependive coordinators to.
• 12:29
  Speaker 13: Kind of see that because you come to get Yeah,
• 12:32
  Speaker 13: I'm not shocked, and I was mentioned as somebody right
• 12:36
  Speaker 13: before you came by is uh.
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: You know, even when he was at BC, you know,
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: super like passionate and uh and a very good football coach.
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: But when I I came back here.
• 12:48
  Speaker 13: You know, being here, I don't know, maybe eight.
• 12:50
  Speaker 14: Weeks and uh, you know, the nice thing is he
• 12:56
  Speaker 14: has been around outstanding defensive coaches in the National Football
• 13:00
  Speaker 14: Brian Flores, Big Bangio, Jeff Hafley, and so in the
• 13:06
  Speaker 14: time I've been here, even like I say.
• 13:08
  Speaker 11: Like the first three weeks here, I was like, oh,
• 13:13
  Speaker 11: this guy has been paying attention and his football and
• 13:17
  Speaker 11: he was scott rocketed, you know, and it is awesome
• 13:20
  Speaker 11: and not shocking, but it's just actually, I mean, none
• 13:26
  Speaker 11: of us were like that at Bouston College.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: You know, that was ten years ago and we were
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: still you know, going through our careers and we thought
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: we were smartest. I'll get out back then.
• 13:34
  Speaker 14: But no, in the time I've been here, it's.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Impressive to see how much Anthony has grown from X
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: and O strategic you know stuff.
• 13:48
  Speaker 7: He's He's outstanding a lot.
• 13:50
  Speaker 4: Of players say that you know he's higher energy, but
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: you know what you're gonna get with coaching camp.
• 13:55
  Speaker 8: And I feel like sometimes when the staff changes, it's
• 13:59
  Speaker 8: hard to get the buy in right away.
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: But do you feel like there's the buy in the
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: players already?
• 14:03
  Speaker 13: I do, And and even just informally, like players have offered.
• 14:10
  Speaker 15: Feedback like that, I'll s I'll just.
• 14:13
  Speaker 13: Say this again, this is sup sounds super corny, but
• 14:15
  Speaker 13: so we have meetings every day with the players, right,
• 14:17
  Speaker 13: you know, installations.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: And.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: No way two days go by where I I don't
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: actually get choked up because He'll get wound up in
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: the meeting and.
• 14:30
  Speaker 13: Start getting the players going. And I'm like, I'm thinking
• 14:34
  Speaker 13: my to myself as a pla, if I was a
• 14:36
  Speaker 13: player sitting in that meeting, like I would be.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: Ready to jump out of my chair and run through
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: a wall.
• 14:42
  Speaker 13: And but for him, it's totally just just rolling off
• 14:45
  Speaker 13: his lips.
• 14:46
  Speaker 15: It's not even like you know, premeditated or anything. He's uh,
• 14:50
  Speaker 15: you know, he does a fantastic job in front of players.
• 14:53
  Speaker 15: I've told him that he knows it and and it
• 14:55
  Speaker 15: but it for him, it's it's not even a chore.
• 14:57
  Speaker 7: It's just it's just him.
• 14:59
  Speaker 15: You know, he comes from a great background and he'll
• 15:02
  Speaker 15: he'll he'll tell you and brag about that, but you know,
• 15:05
  Speaker 15: he's he's just got a great foundation as a human
• 15:08
  Speaker 15: being and he knows.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: What's right and wrong and what toughness means.
• 15:11
  Speaker 15: And yeah, he he'll be in a h head coach
• 15:15
  Speaker 15: in the NFL.
• 15:15
  Speaker 10: So they the guys has the ability to make a play,
• 15:20
  Speaker 10: and I think his uh, his ability to go and
• 15:22
  Speaker 10: make a play, it is trying to energize its though. Yeah,
• 15:26
  Speaker 10: really the whole organization, but really the defense. The play
• 15:28
  Speaker 10: made the other the other day at practice and I
• 15:31
  Speaker 10: I was looking at the sideline on video. I'm like,
• 15:34
  Speaker 10: you gotta see this reaction, you know what I mean?
• 15:36
  Speaker 10: And that's what we're looking for. I mean, they think
• 15:38
  Speaker 10: anytime you can make a play on defense like that.
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: It's gonna energize the whole team.
• 15:42
  Speaker 10: And I think that that's what he's gonna, you know,
• 15:44
  Speaker 10: gonna bring to the table.
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: To get a Oh.
• 15:48
  Speaker 10: I think we're all excited because again we didn't know
• 15:51
  Speaker 10: what it was gonna be. All we know is that
• 15:54
  Speaker 10: we watch the tape on defense and makes place. We
• 15:56
  Speaker 10: will watch the tape on offense. He makes place and
• 15:59
  Speaker 10: that's what he's gonna bring to the table. And I've
• 16:01
  Speaker 10: said this a couple of times now. When they do
• 16:04
  Speaker 10: that in high school, and they do it at a
• 16:06
  Speaker 10: high level in college, they normally bring that to the
• 16:08
  Speaker 10: to the the professional level.
• 16:10
  Speaker 8: And because you don't get him in practice every day,
• 16:14
  Speaker 8: do you like some of his natural ability it shows
• 16:17
  Speaker 8: through just because they don't.
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: Not with you guys every single day, which.
• 16:20
  Speaker 10: When he's out there just the fall field that yeah,
• 16:23
  Speaker 10: I I I think I think we all see that.
• 16:25
  Speaker 10: I mean, he may not know it all the.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: Techniques that we have it thus far, but.
• 16:31
  Speaker 10: His ability to change the reaction I mean, uh, the
• 16:36
  Speaker 10: turning run to locate a ball, to to defend the
• 16:40
  Speaker 10: ball with people around him. I've again I've set it
• 16:43
  Speaker 10: in the past, fifty to fifty balls are really not
• 16:45
  Speaker 10: fifty to fifty balls when he's out there, I mean
• 16:48
  Speaker 10: it kind of tilts to him and uh, there're and that's.
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: Part of the reason why he's here.
• 16:53
  Speaker 8: What do you feel like it's kind of evolving into
• 16:57
  Speaker 8: housing us opsibility or.
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: He'll be prim.
• 17:08
  Speaker 10: Oh yeah, I think we'll get a better understanding of
• 17:11
  Speaker 10: what it's gonna look like as we get into training
• 17:13
  Speaker 10: camp and uh, get through those first two or three
• 17:18
  Speaker 10: weeks in training camp, whereas he's got a pretty he'll
• 17:21
  Speaker 10: have a pretty good foundation on offense, and then we'll,
• 17:24
  Speaker 10: you know, hopefully we'll get him a little bit more
• 17:26
  Speaker 10: on defense and now uh we can use him in
• 17:29
  Speaker 10: the spots that we need.
• 17:31
  Speaker 8: So if you have a a a good mix on
• 17:33
  Speaker 8: the secondary does better in presence. But also a lot
• 17:36
  Speaker 8: of you there with versatility, is that.
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: Excited for you to have?
• 17:41
  Speaker 10: Well, I mean you you just look at our our
• 17:43
  Speaker 10: team right now. You know, Jarian was primarily over a
• 17:46
  Speaker 10: nickel last year and now what we've tried to do
• 17:49
  Speaker 10: is move him around a little bit, give him a
• 17:50
  Speaker 10: chance to play some some corner even with uh Jordans.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: Jordan's for the most part his career has been basically
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: at the nickel position.
• 17:59
  Speaker 10: But Jordan, we're gonna have to put you outside every
• 18:01
  Speaker 10: once in a while just to see where see where
• 18:03
  Speaker 10: you're at as far as that is concerned. So there
• 18:06
  Speaker 10: are some guys with some versatility that way, and those
• 18:09
  Speaker 10: are the two main dudes that we're gonna probably move
• 18:11
  Speaker 10: around as far as the the corner cover kind of
• 18:14
  Speaker 10: guys are concerned. You know, you know, Trace for the
• 18:19
  Speaker 10: most parson outside guy and and and that's probably his
• 18:22
  Speaker 10: best spot. And then Buster's probably more of an outside guy.
• 18:25
  Speaker 10: But this those other guys can move around a little
• 18:27
  Speaker 10: bit for us. What do you think, h I I've
• 18:31
  Speaker 10: been pleasantly surprised with you see, he's great athlete.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: He's got the size, he's got speed.
• 18:37
  Speaker 10: Who are still working on and I guess it has
• 18:39
  Speaker 10: come up a number of times today and you know, yeah,
• 18:41
  Speaker 10: we gotta get the ball skills or or catch the
• 18:44
  Speaker 10: ball a little bit more. But he's been willing to
• 18:46
  Speaker 10: put in the work. He's done a nice job in
• 18:49
  Speaker 10: our meetings. He's been a nice job in practice. I'm
• 18:52
  Speaker 10: hoping hopefully he'll have a great.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: Season for us.
• 18:55
  Speaker 8: You feel like you have a good competition in the room,
• 18:57
  Speaker 8: Like I feel like your group is pretty competitively. Uh.
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, you know what I I do?
• 19:03
  Speaker 10: Uh And I've been on a number of the organizations
• 19:06
  Speaker 10: in the bass. I think we've got a nice little uh,
• 19:09
  Speaker 10: A group of guys that are okay Poles are going
• 19:11
  Speaker 10: out and and playing winning football. Jordan, He's this a
• 19:16
  Speaker 10: guy that's he's helping.
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: Us with his experience.
• 19:19
  Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, we've been Eric at the safety position.
• 19:22
  Speaker 10: He's helping them with the experience, and so we we've
• 19:25
  Speaker 10: we've got a nice little niche.
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: I mean, there was two guys here the last year Giant.
• 19:30
  Speaker 10: That's all this trade that we're young dudes, and now
• 19:33
  Speaker 10: I'm we're anticipating those guys growing in this this second.
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: Season when you look at how cool is it how
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: jack drafting is that?
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: Again?

  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 19:44
  Speaker 10: You know, he he very Uh me's exciting. I mean
• 19:47
  Speaker 10: the guy comes in he obviously he wasn't he wasn't
• 19:50
  Speaker 10: playing that Florida state in some of these other spots.
• 19:52
  Speaker 10: But you can see that this guy's very well. He's
• 19:55
  Speaker 10: capable of playing at this level and playing at a
• 19:57
  Speaker 10: high level. So we are excited about I actually got.

  Speaker 4: To say, down, oh is that right about what type
• 20:06
  Speaker 4: of person he is? Okay, listen, I've never.
• 20:08
  Speaker 10: Heard you say, I mean really when you when I
• 20:15
  Speaker 10: came into the organization and not knowing a lot of
• 20:18
  Speaker 10: these guys personally, all these guys from all these they're
• 20:21
  Speaker 10: good dudes. Uh, I don't see any any guys come
• 20:24
  Speaker 10: when I come to work. I don't see guys with
• 20:26
  Speaker 10: you know, I said this and fass you know, raising
• 20:29
  Speaker 10: their you know, sucking their teeth, glowing their eyes or
• 20:31
  Speaker 10: doing any of that kind of stuff. These guys are
• 20:33
  Speaker 10: good dudes. These guys are pros, pros, and he'll fall
• 20:36
  Speaker 10: right into that same mode. Now he's gonna be brought
• 20:38
  Speaker 10: up the right way.
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: I'm sure he's never been for anything work.
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: Well, not so far here. Yeah, what do you seek
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: from Caleb?
• 20:48
  Speaker 8: Obviously when maybe ask him to play different positions.
• 20:50
  Speaker 10: In the well, well, I know Caleb is basically like
• 20:54
  Speaker 10: a nickel whatever that is. And really right now he's
• 20:57
  Speaker 10: focusing them mostly on the safe at the safety position.
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: So right now that's where we're that's where we kind
• 21:03
  Speaker 3: of see him.
• 21:04
  Speaker 10: Yeah, oh yeah, he's oh yeah, he's got the athletic ability,
• 21:08
  Speaker 10: he's got the ball skills. I and what we did
• 21:12
  Speaker 10: like about him, you know, watching tape, I thought he
• 21:14
  Speaker 10: was tough and and the ability to make tackles, uh,
• 21:18
  Speaker 10: especially tackles in space.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Cause those things are hard.
• 21:21
  Speaker 10: And I think he I think he's gonna continue to
• 21:23
  Speaker 10: improve and be ah and be a factor this year
• 21:26
  Speaker 10: for us
