  Speaker 1: that's just something I've always did, even since I was
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: a kid. You know that that wasn't taught at all,
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: and I you know, I'll be honest if it was,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: but it wasn't. I mean, it was just something you
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: know that I pride myself on in my game, never
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: letting the dB know when the ball is coming. So
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: you know, that was that was kind of a routine
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: thing for me. You know, the lay hands that play
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: as a whole just I guess you got to got
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: a couple of runs and kind of get together. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
• 0:45

• 0:47
  Speaker 1: safety over the top. I'm obviously are in the go route,

• 0:54
  Speaker 1: field running routes too, so you n you know, you
• 0:56

  Speaker 1: all the guys, so and we have confidence in him.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: And he showed you know what type of quarterback he
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: is tonight. Yeah, yeah, yeas his practice and after practice
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: we get reps in too, just making sure we're always
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: staying crisp. He knows what I'm doing, he knows what
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking. I know what he's thinking, you know, so
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: when games come, it's easier feel like a yeah, you know,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: I try not to look too far ahead, you know
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like, you know, I treat every day
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: as it is. I'll just try to get better each
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: and every day, you know, thank for the God to
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: be in this position. And however it you know, pans out,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: you know, I'll be grateful. I'm just you know, grateful
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: to be here. You know. You know, I know what
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: it feels like to be on an out outside looking in.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: So just to be here another year. Just like I said,
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: I'm thankful, I'm grateful, and I'm blessed, feel very blessed. No, worries. Yeah, yeah,
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: she'd probably get this one too. Uh yeah, I kept
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: it like I love, you know, getting questions by my
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: mom because she just sacrificed a lot for me. It's
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: a lot of times, you know, I wanted to give
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: up on the sport. A lot of times. She had
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: to talk to me out a lot of dark places.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: So you know, being here, I just owe it all
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: to her. And I know, you know, I know she watched,
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: and you know I can't wait to talk to her. Yeah.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I grew up in a spiritual household. My mom's actually
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: a pastor, So just growing up that way and just
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: leaning on God and those in those type of situations
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: was something she taught me. And it's the foundation I
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: was raised. So you know, I go to her for
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: a lot for everything. And obviously, you know, God is
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: a number one in my life for sure. You'll understanding
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: talking about that. It just helps. Uh Yeah. I think
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: every everybody just gets the opportunity to shine. And in
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: this offense, I think we're good at, you know, keeping
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: defenses on their toes. You know, I feel like they
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: never know what's coming. You know, we have we go tempo.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: You know, I just feel like you know, it's it's
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: it's a receiver's dream, to be honest, and I think,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: you know, our running backs are loving it too, So
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: I just can't wait to see how, you know, we
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: progress moving forward. Oh yeah, that was great. That's obviously
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: something we practice every practice. You know, those two minute
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: situations have a lot of different situations that we practice,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: but that's one that we do every time. So you know,
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: that's root routine when game when game time come, when
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: two minute comes, like, we know kind of how to operate,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: so you know, when games come, it's easier. It's easier,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: and I think it opens up the past game to
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. You you you know, you
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: pound the ball, pound the ball, pound the ball. You know,
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: they bring the safety down, they bring the corners down,
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: the linebackers getting nosy, and that's when we throw it.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: So I think I think it's been a great balance
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: so far. Thank you guys, appreciate it.
