Press Pass | Jourdan Lewis and Josh Cameron on Being Ready to Respond Every Week · The Jacksonville Jaguars Official Podcast Network

  Speaker 1: Hey, Jordan.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: Travis, first interception yesterday. What do you remember about your
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: first interception against Trevor Simeon and the Broncos in 2017?
• 0:07
  Speaker 3: I remember it was a butt whooping.
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: 42-17, but your pick was the highlight.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I remember that.
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: It was just kind of an overthrow and, you know,
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: just getting my hands on the ball, and that just
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: got me warmed up for that season. So, you know,
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: that is... When you're a playmaker like Travis is, those
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: come in bunches. So I'm looking forward to having more
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: of those come in his future.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: And then lastly for me, the red zone work you
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: guys have done the last two weeks, what do you
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: like about the scheme you're running down there that keeps
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: offenses on their heels?
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's more so the scheme.
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: I think it's more the want to and the guys that,
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: you know, we want to stop the the offense for
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: our offense and for the team and.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: For each other. So it's just really a wheel.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: And Coach Camp always talks about we're going to run
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: some of the same stuff that.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Guys been running in the 80s.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: And we're just going to do it with, you know,
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: the utmost intensity and wheel. And I think that's what's
• 1:13
  Speaker 3: really helping us on those red zone stops. Just wanted
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: to get those stops for each other and just get
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: another blade of grass so we can defend it.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Jordan. My bad. That's on me. That's on me.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: What's up, Jordan?
• 1:36
  Speaker 4: I remember in training camp, you were talking about how
• 1:39
  Speaker 4: like intensely the coaches were coaching you guys and how
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: Coach Ruse was really getting after it to be three
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: games in and have an interception in every single game.
• 1:51
  Speaker 4: Just what does that say about the work that you
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: guys did this offseason?
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: That it works.
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: The work and the progress and the process that we have.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: It works.
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: It's going to keep working as we hone in on
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: those techniques and keep working because Coach Rouge is never
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: good enough. That's good because we want to be the
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: best in the league. As long as we have him,
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: I think we're going to be in really good hands.
• 2:21
  Speaker 3: You can see that technique This week, it was it
• 2:25
  Speaker 3: was much better and improved.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I think that's going to just keep getting better as
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: the year goes on.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: I know all of you guys on the back end
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: are close for you to have yours last week. And
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: now Travis and Jarrion has theirs. Just kind of what
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: does it mean, like between the group of you guys
• 2:44
  Speaker 4: to be able to, you know, all kind of reap
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: the rewards, really?
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: It feels like all of the, you know, being together,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: you know, in and outside of the facility, you know,
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: all of the work that we put in, that it's
• 2:59
  Speaker 3: worth something, that it matters, and that we're getting the
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: results that, you know, we worked so hard for and
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: that they worked so hard for in OTAs. And that's just,
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: like I said, about Travis's first interception. It's the momentum
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: that you get. And you know in this league, when
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: you get turnovers, they come in bunches. And that energy,
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: you know, it flows through the whole team. So I'm
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: excited for the rest of the season and the stretch
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: that we have now.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: Sorry.
• 3:33
  Speaker 4: On the play where I think Travis was further down
• 3:37
  Speaker 4: the field and then you had underneath and they kind
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: of found the whole what was supposed to happen there
• 3:43
  Speaker 4: and what was kind of on that play.
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: It was, you know, a cover two where I sink
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: and then, you know, I saw the spot route. And then,
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: you know, it was just a play that we've seen
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: before that we've seen in practice.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: And it's just got to execute it better on both ends.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: It's just making sure that, you know, we get to
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: our landmarks and making.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Sure that we make that play. Because that should have
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: been interceptions. Appreciate it, man. Thank you.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: We'll go D-Rock and then John.
• 4:28
  Speaker 5: Hey, Jordan, is there like a standard operating procedure for
• 4:32
  Speaker 5: someone to get the ball for somebody else when they
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: make a play like that? You know, when you get
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: an interception or a turnover, like, is there something you
• 4:39
  Speaker 5: guys generally always do? Like, is one guy always assigned
• 4:42
  Speaker 5: to get the ball so that the person.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: Can keep it?
• 4:44
  Speaker 6: No, not one guy.
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: I think it's equipment staff. I think George is always
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: on top of it. It just has some type of
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: significance like that did. That was Travis's first interception.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: So I know people were all over it.
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: So I know Josh took it in his own hands
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: to get the ball back. Travis could have helped us
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: out by not spinning the ball and forgetting about it. But, yeah,
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: that's something that you always want to change. especially as
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: special as that. And, yeah, I think that's an everybody thing,
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: not just when somebody's just, like, specific job. Everybody, you know,
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: trying to get that ball back to them.
• 5:25
  Speaker 5: So I'm going to assume then you have your ball
• 5:27
  Speaker 5: from your first interception or no?
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: It was Trevor Simeon, and we lost.
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: So I don't know if I– I don't know if
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: I remember where that one is.
• 5:44
  Speaker 5: What you're saying is it would have been better if
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: it was a game against Brady, maybe, huh?
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I still got that one from Brady. I got that
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: one from Brady.
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: Hey, real quick, end zone interceptions, you know, how big
• 5:59
  Speaker 5: of a momentum boost is that?
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: I mean, for not only defense, but the offense coming out, too.
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: Um, it's huge because you save points. You take all
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: of the points off of the board. That's, that's, that's
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: either a 10 point swing or a three point swing, um,
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: in either direction, um, or a six point swing in
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: either direction. So, um, when you look at it like that, um,
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: that can change the momentum of any game.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Um, that's the margins in this league. So when you take.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Away, uh, red zone opportunities from, um, A good offense,
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: an offense that's been proven to go and, you know,
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: be methodical and put drives together, it takes the wins
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: out of the sales and it helps.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Everybody on the team. Thanks, bro. Appreciate it. No problem.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: That was a joke too, Mike, that first one.
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: Hey, Jordan.
• 6:55
  Speaker 7: Thanks for doing this.
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: Liam talked about how.
• 6:58
  Speaker 7: Life in the NFL, you just, you know, have to.
• 7:00
  Speaker 8: Be ready to respond every week, no matter what their circumstances.
• 7:04
  Speaker 8: Can you just talk a little bit about how they've
• 7:05
  Speaker 8: kind of instilled that throughout practice, throughout the week, to
• 7:08
  Speaker 8: let you guys come out, start fast like you did Sunday?
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Like we talked about before, it's about the process. And
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: every time we go out on the field, our process
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: needs to be the same. It needs to be, you know, relentless.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: It needs to be intense. And it has to be,
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: you know, game-like so the game is easy. Anytime that
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: you have a loss like we did, you want to
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: have a response and be mentally tough enough to go
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: out there and handle business like we did. But now
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: the next challenge is stringing along a season. That's where
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: we're playing the best ball and mistake-free ball and clean
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: football that we can.
• 7:44
  Speaker 7: Thanks, Jordan.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: No problem.
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Last one here will be Gary.
• 7:55
  Speaker 9: Hey, Jordan, now we did talk a couple weeks ago
• 7:58
  Speaker 9: where your first touchdown, you have that ball, don't you?
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: That was against Daniel Jones. Yeah, I got that one too.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: That was the interception return.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: No, that was the.
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: Or a fumble recovery return, yeah.
• 8:19
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 8:20
  Speaker 6: But you got that ball with no problem, right?
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. Yeah, no, I... It was.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: A fan actually tried to snatch it out of my
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: hands while I was trying to celebrate.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: I had my hands up like this.
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: A fan was trying to snatch the ball, and I
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: kind of, like, kind of shook it off of him.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: So, yeah.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they tried to get my ball. It's not as
• 8:37
  Speaker 3: crazy as Travis's, but, yeah, they... I had to fight
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: for mine.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Okay. And the....
• 8:45
  Speaker 6: The way the defense played, at times they move the
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: ball on you guys for most of the first half.
• 8:53
  Speaker 6: And I know Drake gift-wrapped a couple of turnovers to you.
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: But is part of being a good defense, knowing that
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: the other guys are pretty good too, and they're going
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: to hit some plays, but then.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: You're going to respond.
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: You're going to retaliate.
• 9:09
  Speaker 9: So, you know, is it a matter of respecting what
• 9:13
  Speaker 9: the other guy can do but then coming up with
• 9:16
  Speaker 9: an answer for it?
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: I think it's all, you always respect your opponents, but
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: Coach Kemp always puts it, he puts it well. It's like,
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: it doesn't matter what they do. If they do something good,
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: they do something bad. You know, our standard is our standard.
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: The way we play is how we play. We always
• 9:33
  Speaker 3: attack any situation that we put in. So he just says,
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: give us a blade of grass, man. And he'll show
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: you who his team is and, And you've seen that,
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: you know, from, you know, these last few weeks where
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: we taking the ball away in the red zone.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: So it's really not about what they do. It's about
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: how we respond and how we attack, you know, each situation.
• 9:56
  Speaker 7: What's up, Josh?
• 9:58
  Speaker 4: I remember after your first touchdown, you were saying how
• 10:01
  Speaker 4: you kind of got stuck and you ended up just
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: going with the flex. How much thought went into your
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: celebration for this last one, this one yesterday?
• 10:09
  Speaker 10: Yeah, a good amount of thought definitely went into it.
• 10:12
  Speaker 10: I've really kind of been planning it since last week
• 10:14
  Speaker 10: to tell you the truth. And then I actually ended
• 10:17
  Speaker 10: up posting like a little TikTok like of like the
• 10:20
  Speaker 10: little sound with the, with the dance and ended up
• 10:23
  Speaker 10: going viral. So there was a lot of, a lot
• 10:25
  Speaker 10: of thought going into it. And I think, I think
• 10:28
  Speaker 10: that showed for sure. I was, I was able to
• 10:30
  Speaker 10: pull it off for sure.
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: How have you been able to balance kind of, you
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: have a lot of responsibilities, like if we're just going
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: to keep it honest, like being kickoff return punt protector.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: And then now with your offensive responsibilities, just how have
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: you been able to balance it so early in your career?
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt.
• 10:49
  Speaker 7: A lot of prep goes into it throughout the week.
• 10:51
  Speaker 10: A big thing for me is just getting into a routine,
• 10:54
  Speaker 10: getting into a habit, and trying to take some of
• 10:57
  Speaker 10: those stressors off of myself.
• 10:58
  Speaker 7: Once you get into.
• 11:00
  Speaker 10: That flow of doing the same thing over and over again,
• 11:02
  Speaker 10: not a lot of new stuff can throw you off
• 11:05
  Speaker 10: your balance. That's just been my main thing, staying focused.
• 11:09
  Speaker 10: Whenever I'm worrying about special teams, all my focus is there.
• 11:14
  Speaker 10: When I'm worrying about offense, my focus is there. I
• 11:16
  Speaker 10: don't try to do everything all at once. I try
• 11:19
  Speaker 10: to segment things, just make it as easy as possible
• 11:22
  Speaker 10: for me.
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: And so that's been going good. I'm just going to
• 11:25
  Speaker 7: continue to do that for sure.
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: Thank you, man. Thank you.
• 11:35
  Speaker 6: Hey, Cameron, how you doing?
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: Doing good.
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: How are you?
• 11:38
  Speaker 6: Not bad.
• 11:40
  Speaker 9: Coach said earlier today that you're you're, you're a quiet
• 11:44
  Speaker 9: guy in the building.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: He said something to the effect of, you.
• 11:47
  Speaker 9: Know, you hardly know, they hardly know you're around until
• 11:50
  Speaker 9: you get on the grass. I'm just wondering from your
• 11:53
  Speaker 9: youth football days to high school and college, have you
• 11:55
  Speaker 9: always been that kind of guy where there's a little
• 11:58
  Speaker 9: bit of a different personality on the field and off?
• 12:02
  Speaker 10: Yeah, no, that that's, that's always been me, uh, to
• 12:05
  Speaker 10: tell you the truth. I just, I call it, I
• 12:07
  Speaker 10: guess you're stereotypical flipping a switch, uh, whenever it's time
• 12:11
  Speaker 10: to go. Uh, something before games, I tell them, or
• 12:15
  Speaker 10: I tell myself that I need to, they need to
• 12:17
  Speaker 10: feel you, Jay. So basically, I remind myself, like, hey,
• 12:20
  Speaker 10: they need to feel you whenever you're out there, whenever
• 12:22
  Speaker 10: you get an opportunity to go capitalize on the opportunity.
• 12:26
  Speaker 7: So that's just something I kind of remind myself.
• 12:28
  Speaker 10: And then the quiet part, I wouldn't say I'm, like,
• 12:30
  Speaker 10: super quiet, but more so, I guess right now, I'm
• 12:33
  Speaker 10: just kind of focused. And then whenever it comes time
• 12:37
  Speaker 10: to play, I just kind of go out there. And
• 12:39
  Speaker 10: like I was saying before, they got to feel me
• 12:40
  Speaker 10: for sure.
• 12:41
  Speaker 5: Good.
• 12:42
  Speaker 6: Does that mean you've got a perspective that you can
• 12:48
  Speaker 6: turn it off and on? You're not, you know, the
• 12:51
  Speaker 6: aggressive guy that you're needing to be on the football
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: field 24 hours a day?
• 12:56
  Speaker 7: Oh, yeah, no, for sure.
• 12:57
  Speaker 10: I definitely don't walk around like that just kind of
• 13:00
  Speaker 10: all the time for sure. I definitely just walk around
• 13:05
  Speaker 10: just a nice guy. I like to be nice and chill.
• 13:08
  Speaker 10: And then, like I said, whenever it gets time to
• 13:09
  Speaker 10: play football, though, it's like, But that's what it's like.
• 13:12
  Speaker 10: They got to feel you for real, for real. So
• 13:14
  Speaker 10: that's just that's just how it is.
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: OK, thank you.
• 13:17
  Speaker 7: Thank you. We'll go DRock and then Ryan.
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: Hey, Josh, how proud are you that the fact that
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: you've sort of been able to stay on this upward
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: trajectory pretty much since camp started, there's been no dips
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: and valleys and stuff like that?
• 13:42
  Speaker 7: Sorry, can you repeat the first part?
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: Yeah, how proud are you of the fact that your
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: trajectory has sort of always been rising and you didn't
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: have to deal with any peaks and valleys?
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: It's been steady progress.
• 13:52
  Speaker 7: Yeah, no, for sure.
• 13:53
  Speaker 10: I'm definitely really proud and kind of really excited about
• 13:58
  Speaker 10: how far I've really come. Really kind of coming in,
• 14:01
  Speaker 10: I kind of did have like just some really self-doubts,
• 14:05
  Speaker 10: obviously coming off my little injury from like my calf stuff.
• 14:08
  Speaker 10: So I just wasn't really kind of like feeling myself
• 14:11
  Speaker 10: to tell you the truth, but really just the staff here.
• 14:15
  Speaker 10: You got Ferg, you got Coach Cohen, you got all
• 14:19
  Speaker 10: the people that truly just bought in and believed in
• 14:21
  Speaker 10: me from the get-go. So just having that pressure off
• 14:24
  Speaker 10: your back, knowing that, hey, we believe in you, just
• 14:27
  Speaker 10: go out there and be you type deal. So like
• 14:30
  Speaker 10: I said, having them have my back and just allowing
• 14:33
  Speaker 10: me to go out there and just be me at
• 14:34
  Speaker 10: the end of the day, I feel like that's what
• 14:36
  Speaker 10: it's all about. That's what I'm going to have continue
• 14:38
  Speaker 10: to go out there and do and just continue to
• 14:40
  Speaker 10: be me.
• 14:42
  Speaker 5: Seems like they trust you a ton to put you
• 14:44
  Speaker 5: in a bunch of different roles uh is that something
• 14:47
  Speaker 5: that you were striving to do as a rookie or
• 14:51
  Speaker 5: was it just something that sort of developed um.
• 14:54
  Speaker 10: No that was definitely an expectation they they put like
• 14:57
  Speaker 10: really on me from the very beginning um ever since
• 15:00
  Speaker 10: i first kind of got drafted um eb my coach
• 15:04
  Speaker 10: uh edgar bennett wide receiver coach he was just like
• 15:06
  Speaker 10: hey man like You're going to have to know the Z, X,
• 15:09
  Speaker 10: and F, like.
• 15:09
