• 0:01
  Speaker 1: Well, we have to talk to you since camp has started,
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: So what are your first impressions?
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: First impressions are you know, I'm glad to be back
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: out here and play football with the very special group
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: of guys, special coaching staff, and a special organization. I'm
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: just proud to be blessed to be out here.
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: When you put pads on, what is that allowed you
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: focus on and maybe measure yourself against difference?
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: Once the paths comes on, it allows the you know,
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: the offensive lignment to really get their blocks and the
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: double teams to really happen.
• 0:32
  Speaker 4: And that makes my job easier.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: It makes the whole open up a little bit more
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: and it makes my runs a little bit more decisive.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: You send up questions about you catching the ball, but
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: you did it a lot in high school.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: You feel like, let's come back really quickly out here.
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: That's one thing I've worked on since high school. I've
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: continuous to have gotten better at it through throughout college,
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: and then that's one thing that people question going into
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: the pro. So I worked on it and just continue
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: to work on it and understand the space and.
• 0:59
  Speaker 4: Catch and ability.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: And past part.
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Like I said, I'm improving and I've I've shown countless
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: times in practice that I can catch the ball. Still
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: need to show my past protection a little more, but
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: we're going day by day, and we're day six in camp.
• 1:18
  Speaker 3: So he said you hadn't had a ton of experience
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: running behind fullbacks and doing.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Stuff under center.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: How's that transition, bit Savar in this offense where you
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: have fullbacks and you are in front of you exclusively,
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: how does it feel to get used to that process
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: out here?
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: I love it because you got guys like Robber Boots
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: who just he's so big but agile. He can get
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: downhill and he pops. When you see that happen in
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: front of you, it really, you know, it makes you
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: want to lower your your shoulder pads and go pop
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: somebody else. So I really like the way we do
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: things here on.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: Offense when it comes to the past protection. Is it
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: more like the mental part of it or the physical
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: part of it that's going to be different.
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: At this level? Or well, there's steps to it.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: First, you got to reckon that is who you got
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: because NFL defense, especially hours can do a lot of
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: tricky things.
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: Guy's popping in and out.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: So recognize who you got and and meet him at
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: That's the biggest thing.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Outside of the guys, the meeting host been the most.
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: Help and helping navigate whether it's hopefully the offensive line
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: are being background.
• 2:18
  Speaker 4: That's yeah.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: George Slaney has been a huge help ever since I
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: came into the room, and since day one, you know,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: and OTAs and now being able to watch him and
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: learn and how he holds the standard for the running
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: back room.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: That's really inspiring.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: Are there any defensive guys that are giving you some
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: advice or kind of taking.
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: You aside to the boy.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: I wouldn't say any advice, just just guys that let
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: me know that there are defensive players that I'm offensive players.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: And that's how it is.
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: So worries would be another rookie talent show. Have you
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: been thinking about what your performance might be?
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: Nope, I'm just worried about day seven of fall camp.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: So we will be like the first significant thing yous been.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: You're like, you're you're like the first thing you buy
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: him with your first paycheck.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: I've already done it.
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: This past summer when I went home, I just got
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: a new house for my family. That was my biggest
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: goal of mine. Once I made it to the NFL
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: and already did that, So check that off the list.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: And where's that back home in Texas?
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: In your hometown. What was the reaction?
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: A bunch of smiles and and you know, blessings, you know,
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: just everything I wanted to do and put on the
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: board that I was gonna do when I was little.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: So I'm glad that I finally did it.
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: Going back to this defense and the defensive places letter,
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: you know they're there.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: What can you say about that Seahawk's defense and what
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: are you finding.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Out about it?
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: They fly around on every down, You're thirty yards down
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: the field and you got defensive linement like Leonard Williams.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: Chasing you down.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: So that just goes to show the way the guys
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: practice is the reason they were so successful last year
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: and the fact that they could still do it this
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: year makes me a better player in the whole team.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Look like things ramping up, you know, he skirmishes out there. Hey,
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: you guys just got paths on. How do you feel
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: like kind of increasing?
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: Day two of pass today, and practice has gotten a
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: little longer.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: And we're in that second stretch of training camp.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: So just understand how to take care of your body
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: but also improve on the details while still also being
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: physical on the day day basis, it's just football, and
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: you know, I'm glad to get better.
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: At it away from working with Brian Flurry as the OC,
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: but it's a mid lake working with him and getting
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: up to speed with his offense.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm really starting to finally understand the offense and
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: the things that we do. Like I did, I would
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: I didn't do too much in college, So now that
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: I'm opening my game up a little bit, I'm really
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: excited for the season.
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: Looking you mentioned George be really really helping a lot.
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: People's viewing is you guys just kind of competing for
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: the running back job, but obviously you guys kind of
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: just helping out each other a lot to get fuel
• 5:11
  Speaker 3: wars that instead of like competis.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Start a job.
• 5:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think we both view it as more.
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: You know, there's there's competition in every position group, there's
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: competition between everyone and themselves, but we both view it
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: as something, you know, how can we make this offense better,
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: this running back room better, and each other better. And
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: we've continued to do that every day.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: It looked like you and Jack Sharrony were talking on
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: the way off the field, is even though he's not playing,
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: is even.
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Helpful for you?
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, that's another guy who's you know, even when
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: he was away. Then OTAs like texting me like, hey,
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: I saw this on the film. You could have done
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: this better. Like that's that's a real teammate right there,
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: and him being out but still being on the sideline
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: and giving me tips every time I come back to
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: the sideline, Like that's really helpful, and just just someone
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: who loves the game of football. Is as really great
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: teammate have.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: What about this camp that maybe you didn't expect or
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: as new to.
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: You campus camp. Honestly, this is everything I expected.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: Obviously we're in the league now, so it's everything's a
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: little bit tougher, and everyone's smarter and more decisive off the.
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: Ball, so by the end of the day, it's football.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: During this offensive line returned off five starters, obviously you're
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: new to play with them. But can you sense kind
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: of that collision.
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: That unit has when you run.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: I can't for sure, especially when you see guys with
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: their secret little handshakes.
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: Before the balls while we're in the huddles.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: So Hopefully i'll get a little handshake in with them
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: once I get more comfortable with the offense.
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: Well, thanks, appreciate it.
