- 0:18Speaker 4: was very excited to come out here to day.
- 0:19Speaker 1: Let me tell you, so is everyone else out here.
- 0:21Speaker 1: You might be the next most popular guy after Malik
- 0:24Speaker 1: got the field.
- 0:24Speaker 2: So I'm ready.
- 0:25Speaker 4: Anytime I touched his field, I always feel like I
- 0:27Speaker 4: got to have my game face on. I know we're
- 0:29Speaker 4: just a couple of days in the camp for you, elite,
- 0:31Speaker 4: But what's what's been your biggest takeaway? How excited are
- 0:33Speaker 4: you for this season? How excited for you are you
- 0:35Speaker 4: to be in this offense? You got some new quarterbacks
- 0:37Speaker 4: in the room. Talk to me about your overall excitement
- 0:40Speaker 4: about this year.
- 0:40Speaker 3: The biggest takeaway is the guys that we put in
- 0:42Speaker 3: this organization. Now you know Adam russ jamis a lot
- 0:45Speaker 3: of those leaders coming in the quarterback position in the
- 0:48Speaker 3: D line. I mean the D line we see out there,
- 0:50Speaker 3: they're crazy. Russ can barely get out of play action.
- 0:53Speaker 2: When I running it off.
- 0:54Speaker 3: But you know, but Dolphin has been taking steps forward.
- 0:58Speaker 3: I'm having that, you know, that leader at quarterback, especially
- 1:00Speaker 3: with Russ, you know, able to throw the ball anywhere
- 1:02Speaker 3: on the football field. You know, that's been a that's
- 1:04Speaker 3: been a step forward. You know, we're taking shots down
- 1:07Speaker 3: the field, so connecting on those. So everything's been going good.
- 1:09Speaker 3: On the officsive side.
- 1:10Speaker 4: We've been seeing you know, I'm very active on the
- 1:12Speaker 4: socials go so I'm seeing my guy going up top.
- 1:15Speaker 2: I'm like, this is day one a camp.
- 1:16Speaker 4: He's already got three touchdowns and he's he's going up
- 1:19Speaker 4: top on these dbs out here making the competitive nature happen.
- 1:22Speaker 2: It's been fun to watch.
- 1:23Speaker 1: It's been incredible to watch so far. So you mentioned
- 1:25Speaker 1: Russell Wilson named the starter here. What's impressed you most
- 1:29Speaker 1: about his game on the field, Now that you guys
- 1:31Speaker 1: have gotten out of the offseason program, out of meeting
- 1:33Speaker 1: rooms and onto the practice field.
- 1:34Speaker 3: I would say his arm angles of how he throws
- 1:36Speaker 3: the ball, you know, throwing the ball in a great
- 1:38Speaker 3: spot to where you can only get it defend the camp.
- 1:40Speaker 3: But as you know, that's the event mentality that he
- 1:42Speaker 3: has able to know, you know, coverage is off top.
- 1:45Speaker 3: You know, yesterday we had a we had a play
- 1:47Speaker 3: and I thought he was going to check it and
- 1:50Speaker 3: I thought it was a man. I thought it was man.
- 1:52Speaker 3: He knew it was on it and I was like,
- 1:53Speaker 3: I came back to him. I was like, how you
- 1:55Speaker 3: knew it wasn't you know how you knew it wasn't
- 1:56Speaker 3: man because I thought it was mount way for the check.
- 1:58Speaker 3: He was like, man, something just told me. You know
- 1:59Speaker 3: that just the position that he was guarding, you, I
- 2:02Speaker 3: knew it was on. I was like, man, that's some
- 2:03Speaker 3: vet stuff or that. So this is vet mentality to
- 2:05Speaker 3: understand how we can get plays in and out, create
- 2:09Speaker 3: you know, good plays to you know, get too close
- 2:11Speaker 3: to the first donald just make it supposed.
- 2:12Speaker 2: To play incredible, incredible. It's really been fun to watch.
- 2:15Speaker 4: It's really been interesting to see the quarterback room and
- 2:18Speaker 4: to see all those guys.
- 2:19Speaker 2: Give me, give me a Jameis Winston.
- 2:20Speaker 4: Story, give me something that you heard, give me something
- 2:22Speaker 4: crazy that he said, or just give me one of
- 2:25Speaker 4: those Jameis Winston isms that you've heard out here through camp.
- 2:28Speaker 3: That's I probably say, none of the crazy things I
- 2:30Speaker 3: never heard.
- 2:31Speaker 2: He really.
- 2:32Speaker 3: I mean, I know a lot of people see it.
- 2:33Speaker 3: I mean I see it sometimes. I mean, but I
- 2:35Speaker 3: don't remember. But I remember one time we was in
- 2:37Speaker 3: the locker room and we played like an old song
- 2:39Speaker 3: and he was dancing like Michael Jackson in there. He
- 2:42Speaker 3: was doing that on the field. I think it was
- 2:44Speaker 3: the first day. I think it was the first day
- 2:45Speaker 3: of camp. Actually, you know, it was like it was
- 2:48Speaker 3: like were supposed to. It was a game situation and
- 2:51Speaker 3: it was like third down or something, and he had
- 2:53Speaker 3: yelled out he said, the next play coming to you one.
- 2:55Speaker 3: He said, we all know it. We all know it.
- 2:58Speaker 3: So after that that was when I called the jump ball.
- 3:00Speaker 3: I ran over to I say, I know it's coming
- 3:02Speaker 3: to me.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Everybody else.
- 3:07Speaker 1: Still the beans, Hey, listen, got it up to the
- 3:09Speaker 1: gree of difficulty when you got someone that good on

- 7:25Speaker 3: leader in my eye, and taking steps by step by him.
- 7:28Speaker 2: Incredible.
- 7:28Speaker 4: I mean, you don't play that long in this league
- 7:30Speaker 4: without a great pt, without a great team around you, right, Gole.
- 7:33Speaker 1: No, incredible, A great guy to learn from, great guy
- 7:36Speaker 1: to help be a force in this locker room. All right, Malik,
- 7:39Speaker 1: before we let you go here, have you ever done
- 7:41Speaker 1: these blind rankings?
- 7:43Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 7:43Speaker 2: I have. We're gonna have.
- 7:44Speaker 1: You if you're up for it, We're gonna have you
- 7:47Speaker 1: blind rank some of the corners that you're gonna face
- 7:49Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five.
- 7:50Speaker 2: You cool with that? Yeah?
- 7:51Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna read the name off. We got
- 7:53Speaker 1: five names. You tell me where you're gonna put them,
- 7:55Speaker 1: one through five. Let's start with Christian Gonzales.
- 7:58Speaker 3: Christian Gonzalez, I will probably say five.
- 8:01Speaker 2: All right, Christian Zauas. At five.
- 8:04Speaker 3: We got Mitchell quinn I Mitchell four?
- 8:09Speaker 2: Four? All right? Pat Sertan the second one? All right?
- 8:14Speaker 4: Wait, what about Patrick Certain? Give me some talk to
- 8:17Speaker 4: me about Patrick Certain. You immediately put him at number one.
- 8:20Speaker 4: What is it about his skill set that you respect
- 8:22Speaker 4: so much.
- 8:23Speaker 3: He's he's a big corner at the line stream. He
- 8:26Speaker 3: doesn't move, his arms is long, and I feel like
- 8:29Speaker 3: once he he understands concepts and route. He understands when
- 8:33Speaker 3: the receiver is going full speed. He understand when we're not.
- 8:35Speaker 3: He understands what we're breaking. So he just him, just
- 8:38Speaker 3: him being smart. And he's very like quick. He's uh,
- 8:41Speaker 3: he's very like quick. Like I've seen a couple of
- 8:42Speaker 3: routs somebody trying to run like an out on him.
- 8:45Speaker 3: He jumped it quick like you know. It's it's hard
- 8:47Speaker 3: to for a dB to jump out and you speed tournament.
- 8:50Speaker 3: So for him to have that much recovery speed too,
- 8:53Speaker 3: I think it's impressive. And he's been, you know, a
- 8:55Speaker 3: shut down corner for you know, a long time.
- 8:57Speaker 4: I remember my years man playing against the real reeve.
- 9:00Speaker 4: He wasn't overly fast, he wasn't super quick. He was
- 9:03Speaker 4: the smartest guy on the field. And I think Patrick
- 9:06Speaker 4: Artan has some of those same matchup.
- 9:07Speaker 2: No surprise seeing him at number one.
- 9:09Speaker 1: All right, you got one, four and five, you got
- 9:11Speaker 1: two names left here.
- 9:12Speaker 3: Jalen Johnson Jalen Johnson, I'll probably go probably go three.
- 9:21Speaker 3: I'll probably go through.
- 9:22Speaker 2: With them, all right, last one up. Then Trent McDuffie too.
- 9:25Speaker 2: I him it too, all right.
- 9:26Speaker 1: So when patzertan the second, Trent McDuffie, Jalen Johnson, Quinon Mitchell,
- 9:32Speaker 1: and Christian Gonzales, so heck of a list here and
- 9:35Speaker 1: a bunch of guys that are gonna have their hands
- 9:37Speaker 1: full if they see one and Giants blew across from them. So, Malik,
- 9:40Speaker 1: this has been awesome, man. We appreciate it all the time.
- 9:42Speaker 1: Best the luck out here in the rest of camp. Man,
- 9:44Speaker 1: we know Giants fans are really exciting. So are we
- 9:46Speaker 1: to see what season two looks like for you out here.
