Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Today with the fans here, Yeah, it was good to
- 0:02Speaker 1: get them out here. Seemingly it was pretty packed early
- 0:05Speaker 1: on whether it kind of held off for us, you know,
- 0:09Speaker 1: and try to give the fans what they want, get
- 0:11Speaker 1: the ball down the field a little bit, and we
- 0:14Speaker 1: appreciate that, you know, the whole fan base and community
- 0:16Speaker 1: coming out to support us attention.
- 0:19Speaker 2: Yeah, it's fun, man.
- 0:20Speaker 1: It helps bring some some life to the to the joint,
- 0:24Speaker 1: and I know the players really appreciate it. I know
- 0:28Speaker 1: all of us feel it, and it makes it just
- 0:31Speaker 1: a little bit more competitive.
- 0:32Speaker 2: It's just natural.
- 0:33Speaker 1: The fact that you've got people that you know, care
- 0:37Speaker 1: about what we're doing out here taking the time to
- 0:40Speaker 1: watch us practice. That's something that I really appreciate as
- 0:45Speaker 1: the coach and also feed off of when we're out here.
- 0:48Speaker 1: It's when we're in the call it periods and you
- 0:51Speaker 1: hear the fans roar when the guys make a play, Well,
- 0:53Speaker 1: I want to throw it down the field again, and
- 0:56Speaker 1: you know, you want to continue to do it because
- 0:59Speaker 1: momentums a hell of a drug.
- 1:01Speaker 3: You talked about BTJ before, but what he's stacking here,
- 1:06Speaker 3: what does that do for him.
- 1:07Speaker 1: Or can do huge for the confidence? As you said
- 1:12Speaker 1: number one to always you know, I mean, you hear all.
- 1:17Speaker 1: It's hard to not hear everything right. And to also
- 1:20Speaker 1: for himself, I know there was you know, standards in
- 1:23Speaker 1: which he wanted to improve upon, and so the fact
- 1:26Speaker 1: that he's just come out here and work his ass off,
- 1:30Speaker 1: having a great attitude like after every play communication with
- 1:34Speaker 1: either myself or Trevor or eb or Grant whatever it is,
- 1:39Speaker 1: and then making the place like that is something that
- 1:42Speaker 1: you cannot simulate in routes on air. You cannot simulate
- 1:47Speaker 1: that type of confidence until you do it in practice.
- 1:50Speaker 1: Like It's just there's nobody that I've known as a
- 1:54Speaker 1: player that just can only turn it on in a
- 1:57Speaker 1: game like the whole gamer thing, Like I don't fully
- 2:00Speaker 1: believe in that.
- 2:01Speaker 2: I believe in.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Guys elevate their play to go play in a game, absolutely,
- 2:05Speaker 1: but the confidence of the connection and chemistry that they're
- 2:09Speaker 1: building that's real.
- 2:11Speaker 4: Continuation to their points. Do you have the opportunity to
- 2:14Speaker 4: strain together a series of successful seasons for the first
- 2:17Speaker 4: time in quite some time for this franchise, was having
- 2:19Speaker 4: the crowds energy here a reminder of the expectations for
- 2:23Speaker 4: this group.
- 2:23Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, look, we we try not to feed
- 2:28Speaker 1: too much into the expectation world. We try to just
- 2:31Speaker 1: live in the in the day, in the process of
- 2:34Speaker 1: getting better each and every day. And so as much
- 2:36Speaker 1: as we understand that there's been peaks and valleys in
- 2:40Speaker 1: the past, we're not living in that past.
- 2:43Speaker 2: We're living in the in the moment. We're living in today.
- 2:45Speaker 1: And having the fans out here today was a great
- 2:48Speaker 1: representation of guys continuing to elevate their play, elevate the
- 2:52Speaker 1: standard of how we practice and operate on a day
- 2:55Speaker 1: to day basis. But you know, you want expectations to
- 2:59Speaker 1: be high, and you want because it's more of a
- 3:01Speaker 1: standard of creating a standard of Hey, this.
- 3:04Speaker 2: Is just how we play, this is how we operate.
- 3:07Speaker 5: There's no such thing as having too many guys that
- 3:09Speaker 5: can make plays. But with guys that have individual goals
- 3:13Speaker 5: and the desire to help the team, how do you
- 3:15Speaker 5: balance that out letting them know that you're going to
- 3:17Speaker 5: get your chances.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that the cream always rises the guys
- 3:22Speaker 1: that you know, operate as professionals, that know what they're
- 3:26Speaker 1: doing in the playbook, that know how to come out
- 3:29Speaker 1: here and practice and put it on tape. Those guys
- 3:32Speaker 1: are going to be the ones that are always going
- 3:33Speaker 1: to get there the most opportunities. Excuse me, And you
- 3:37Speaker 1: want every player and I tell them in meetings like, guys,
- 3:39Speaker 1: your individual goals are important to us, Like we go
- 3:43Speaker 1: over those in your three better, three best, and what
- 3:46Speaker 1: your goals are individually, because every player that has success,
- 3:51Speaker 1: I mean, that's only going to help our team, right,
- 3:53Speaker 1: And you want players to go and achieve those goals,
- 3:57Speaker 1: to go get paid, to get bonuses, like we want that,
- 4:00Speaker 1: like absolutely want that for each and every player. But
- 4:04Speaker 1: it's got to be a team first mentality. Is it
- 4:07Speaker 1: truly what's best for the team. And that's what we're
- 4:11Speaker 1: doing with personnel. I mean, the best players will always play.
- 4:15Speaker 1: I don't care if you're a rookie, if you're a vet,
- 4:17Speaker 1: it does not matter. The best players will play, and
- 4:20Speaker 1: the best players will get the touches and Targetsgaz.
- 4:24Speaker 3: When he does get back, how much is his familiarity
- 4:27Speaker 3: with you?
- 4:27Speaker 1: Yeah, it helps for sure the onboarding process of more
- 4:33Speaker 1: so the run game and protections, right, that's more. The
- 4:36Speaker 1: most that running backs have to know is their their track.
- 4:41Speaker 1: What's the concept of run whether it's outside zone, mid zone,
- 4:44Speaker 1: tight zone, whatever those are, knowing what those tracks and
- 4:48Speaker 1: footworks are, and then the blitz pick up and protections.
- 4:51Speaker 1: Other than that, I mean, you're talking about checkdowns and
- 4:54Speaker 1: routes that they learn through concepts, and we've been running
- 4:58Speaker 1: a lot of the concepts that were running now when
- 5:00Speaker 1: I was at Kentucky in twenty one. I mean, there's
- 5:02Speaker 1: so much that we're doing that may be different verbiage
- 5:06Speaker 1: from what it was then, but very similar conceptually. So
- 5:10Speaker 1: I'm really I'm not worried about him at all from
- 5:12Speaker 1: a Kenny is he going to be ready mentally to
- 5:15Speaker 1: go when we hit training camp? Not worried about him,
- 5:18Speaker 1: not one bit.
- 5:19Speaker 6: Last offseason was your first season obviously, in introducing everything
- 5:23Speaker 6: to the guys, there was a lot of cross positional
- 5:26Speaker 6: flexibility within the offensive line. Any plans on the new
- 5:29Speaker 6: guys or even the veterans this year.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Yeah, next week when we hit kind of those last
- 5:35Speaker 1: three days of what we'll call OTAs, we're going to
- 5:39Speaker 1: and now we won't be doing much team work like
- 5:42Speaker 1: against each other, but within the positional drills, within the group,
- 5:47Speaker 1: separate OD drills, we are going to be mixing up
- 5:50Speaker 1: the offensive line a little bit and just getting some
- 5:53Speaker 1: of those guys individual work at different positions, and that's
- 5:58Speaker 1: kind of our way to as we head towards the end.
- 6:01Speaker 1: We're not doing anything where come like chemistry would get
- 6:05Speaker 1: maybe in the way there or.
- 6:06Speaker 2: Any issues with communication.
- 6:09Speaker 1: We'll have some of those guys bounce around at different
- 6:12Speaker 1: positions throughout individual and through group work.
- 6:15Speaker 2: Next week, he's.
- 6:17Speaker 7: An any week one stuff this.
- 6:18Speaker 2: Week, this week, no, next week. That's what it's all for.
- 6:22Speaker 1: So we're gonna use next week what we're gonna call
- 6:25Speaker 1: it essentially a pass camp where everything that we're doing
- 6:29Speaker 1: on Monday through Wednesday is really hyper focused on the
- 6:33Speaker 1: pass game, not just obviously we'll do some seven on seven,
- 6:37Speaker 1: but past rush.
- 6:39Speaker 2: It's all.
- 6:39Speaker 1: The D line is gonna be in all pass rush
- 6:41Speaker 1: drills the entire day. Offensive line they're gonna be in
- 6:44Speaker 1: all pass protection drills, whether it's individually, pods of groups,
- 6:49Speaker 1: half line, full line. And then we'll do some blitz
- 6:52Speaker 1: pick up, which will be a lot of it geared
- 6:55Speaker 1: towards Cleveland.
- 6:56Speaker 2: In that way.
- 6:58Speaker 8: UFL experiment with four points, sixty yard field goal or longer.
- 7:02Speaker 3: Any interest in that.
- 7:03Speaker 1: Heck, yeah, man, let's go up the ante a little
- 7:07Speaker 1: bit now.
- 7:07Speaker 2: I mean I think it's cool that.
- 7:09Speaker 1: I mean, you look at the dynamic kickoff in the UFL,
- 7:12Speaker 1: obviously having a lot to do with some of those things,
- 7:14Speaker 1: and I think the game so much of this game
- 7:19Speaker 1: at this level. I mean it's taken from high school,
- 7:22Speaker 1: it's taken from college, it's taken from the UFL, from Canada,
- 7:25Speaker 1: from arena.
- 7:26Speaker 2: I mean, there's so many different.
- 7:29Speaker 1: Whether it's rules, scheme, concepts, fundamentals and techniques that we
- 7:33Speaker 1: can take from everywhere. I think that would be a
- 7:36Speaker 1: pretty cool rule proposal to come up on the docket here.
- 7:40Speaker 4: Actually you might.
- 7:42Speaker 1: Yeah, there's definitely some more strategy involved. When if it
- 7:46Speaker 1: was worth four points, I think we have a little
- 7:48Speaker 1: bit of an advantage with our guy having two of
- 7:52Speaker 1: those long field goals last year and being.
- 7:55Speaker 2: Able to attempt them.
- 7:56Speaker 1: I mean that would definitely change some of your strategy
- 7:58Speaker 1: for sure. I think it's a cool conversations a really.
- 8:01Speaker 6: Big day for the secondary today, Like what did you
- 8:04Speaker 6: see from those guys today? Like how do you how
- 8:06Speaker 6: are you feeling walking.
- 8:07Speaker 3: Out of this cone.
- 8:07Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like the secondary's improved drastically from where
- 8:13Speaker 1: we were. I think the combination of Matte Rougeo and
- 8:17Speaker 1: Anthony Perkins have done a phenomenal job in the secondary,
- 8:21Speaker 1: collaborating with what Campy's vision is back there. But what
- 8:26Speaker 1: Matt has brought has been some swagger, some confidence, and
- 8:31Speaker 1: we're trying to play a little bit stickier underneath. And look,
- 8:36Speaker 1: make us throw it, make people throw.
- 8:38Speaker 2: The ball over your heads.
- 8:39Speaker 1: The percentages of completions of just a go ball versus
- 8:44Speaker 1: a hitch or a curl, it's so much smaller. The
- 8:47Speaker 1: margin for air is so much smaller. To say, man,
- 8:51Speaker 1: the ball has to get completed forty five yards down
- 8:54Speaker 1: the field on the red line, one on one right.
- 8:57Speaker 1: So we're trying to just continue to take the air
- 9:00Speaker 1: out of the coverage. And that's not just in the secondary,
- 9:03Speaker 1: that's in the at the linebacker position, and that only.
- 9:07Speaker 2: Helps the rush.
- 9:08Speaker 1: Right, The rush and the coverage are always tied together.
- 9:12Speaker 1: And if we can be a little bit more sticky,
- 9:14Speaker 1: a little bit tighter coverage even when we're in our zones,
- 9:18Speaker 1: I think it's only going to help our cause.
- 9:22Speaker 9: I think he's improved a ton, But just watching him,
- 9:25Speaker 9: he's he's really been super.
- 9:27Speaker 7: Detailed with his technique.
- 9:28Speaker 9: I think that's one of the things that shows up
- 9:30Speaker 9: very very deliberate, like in the way that he's practicing,
- 9:33Speaker 9: and I think that that's created some takeaways for him
- 9:36Speaker 9: and making some plays on the ball.
- 9:37Speaker 7: He's just always seems to be near the action right now.
- 9:40Speaker 9: So he's Uh, he's really done a great job and
- 9:42Speaker 9: improved a bunch this spring.
- 9:45Speaker 3: Matthew. From your staff, obviously you have a background at table.
- 9:48Speaker 3: What does he bring to the table.
- 9:50Speaker 7: I think he's he's.
- 9:51Speaker 9: An incredibly detailed guy. He's really really smart young coach.
- 9:55Speaker 9: But you know, he's a maniac out here out here
- 9:58Speaker 9: on the field. I think you guys have been around,
- 10:00Speaker 9: you've seen that he's just a great coach, super detailed.
- 10:03Speaker 9: He's a tireless worker, you know. I mean he gonna
- 10:06Speaker 9: put some hours now. We've known each other for a
- 10:09Speaker 9: long long time.
- 10:10Speaker 8: Uh.
- 10:10Speaker 9: We had coached together before at Boston College when I
- 10:13Speaker 9: was coaching DB's and he was coaching with me. We
- 10:16Speaker 9: just have a very very similar philosophy and thought process
- 10:20Speaker 9: on football.
- 10:21Speaker 4: From your perspective, how different does Bryan look this spring
- 10:26Speaker 4: as opposed to last.
- 10:28Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean he's he looks great. He's done a
- 10:30Speaker 7: heck of a job.
- 10:31Speaker 9: I mean, honestly, last year I thought he was pretty
- 10:33Speaker 9: good too, Sorry about that, Yeah, good, Yeah, all right, Yeah.
- 10:44Speaker 7: He's he's done a great job.
- 10:46Speaker 9: I thought he did a great job last year, and
- 10:47Speaker 9: and he's really had a great spring. I think you
- 10:49Speaker 9: guys obviously have seen that. But he's one of those guys.
- 10:52Speaker 9: He's big, long guy that can really run. And you know,
- 10:56Speaker 9: there's not that many of those guys, many of those
- 10:58Speaker 9: guys walking around, so he's tell to cover.
- 11:00Speaker 3: What did you like about.
- 11:01Speaker 10: Zach Durphy, you know, coming out and what have you
- 11:03Speaker 10: see for so far?
- 11:04Speaker 9: Really what we've seen out here, you know, that's what
- 11:06Speaker 9: we liked about him. He practices super hard. He plays
- 11:08Speaker 9: hard all the time. I think Zach's a really good
- 11:11Speaker 9: pass rusher, but he's stout at the point of attack,
- 11:13Speaker 9: so he can set a firm edge in a run game.
- 11:16Speaker 9: And he's just a big guy that's really really athletic.
- 11:18Speaker 9: You know, he's got some hybrid qualities in terms of
- 11:21Speaker 9: being a defensive lineman that can do some linebacker jobs.
- 11:24Speaker 9: So we're always looking for guys with position flexibility and versatility,
- 11:28Speaker 9: and he was one of those guys that we thought
- 11:30Speaker 9: he had those qualities, and when you watch them play,
- 11:32Speaker 9: he just played hard as hell. So that's something I've
- 11:35Speaker 9: been I certainly haven't been surprised by his effort and practice.
- 11:37Speaker 7: That's what we expected.
- 11:39Speaker 3: Hard to believe.
- 11:39Speaker 10: We're talking about Josh Baker and stronger, Bes Dagman stronger.
- 11:43Speaker 7: Yeah like that. Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I think he looks great.
- 11:46Speaker 9: I said a couple of weeks ago, I was talking
- 11:47Speaker 9: about Eric Ciano and his staff. I think they've done
- 11:50Speaker 9: an incredible job with these guys. Josh isn't the only guy,
- 11:53Speaker 9: but he looks great. I mean, he's put on good weight.
- 11:55Speaker 9: You know, there's obviously you can put on weight, but
- 11:57Speaker 9: it's got to.
- 11:58Speaker 3: Be good weight.
- 11:58Speaker 9: And he still looks super strong at the point of attack,
- 12:01Speaker 9: and he's got that first step in explosion that we
- 12:04Speaker 9: love about him. I just think it benefits him in
- 12:09Speaker 9: every which way, you know what I mean, finishing the
- 12:11Speaker 9: rush at the top of the rush.
- 12:12Speaker 7: Uh, you know, when you're working speed to power.
- 12:15Speaker 9: You can't tell me that that that's not something that's
- 12:17Speaker 9: an advantage to you. You know, because his lower half
- 12:20Speaker 9: is super strong, and we talked about that.
- 12:22Speaker 7: In a run game.
- 12:22Speaker 9: You know, your hands obviously the guy who strikes first wins.
- 12:26Speaker 9: But you know the ass whooping's done with your legs,
- 12:28Speaker 9: your hips, a low back, and you know we got that.
- 12:30Speaker 9: Got a bunch of guys with that lower body strength
- 12:33Speaker 9: in the front, and that's what we're always looking for.
- 12:34Speaker 3: Yeah, just said he thought the secondary was fascinating.
- 12:37Speaker 7: For Yeah, I think we're getting there every day.
- 12:40Speaker 9: It's a process. You know, this stuff in the spring
- 12:42Speaker 9: is great, but you know, it don't really matter much
- 12:46Speaker 9: what you're doing underwear. You know, it's about who's going
- 12:48Speaker 9: out there and who's going to be physical when we
- 12:50Speaker 9: get get back here in the summer. But this is
- 12:52Speaker 9: always a good start and I think fundamentally our guys
- 12:55Speaker 9: have improved a bunch since we started.
- 12:57Speaker 7: The spring out the art stuff this year. What do
- 13:00Speaker 7: we need from him?
- 13:02Speaker 9: We just need I think the production that we were
- 13:04Speaker 9: saying before Eric got hurt, and you know as he
- 13:06Speaker 9: came back, obviously he pushed through it, pushed through an
- 13:08Speaker 9: injury at the end of the year. And Eric is
- 13:11Speaker 9: a huge guy inside. He creates great middle push. He's
- 13:14Speaker 9: got elite pass rush value for us for us, so
- 13:17Speaker 9: you know, we just need him to keep going away.
- 13:19Speaker 9: He's been going. So after a self scout during the offseason,
- 13:22Speaker 9: how much of other teams got your attention?
- 13:25Speaker 3: The pressures they were A.
- 13:26Speaker 7: Yeah, every year.
- 13:26Speaker 9: Every year you watch everybody and you kind of try,
- 13:29Speaker 9: you know, usually stay in the top five, top ten
- 13:33Speaker 9: in different areas. You know that you're trying to improve upon.
- 13:38Speaker 9: But there's a bunch of teams and I think it's
- 13:40Speaker 9: a it's a little bit of a copycat league for sure.
- 13:42Speaker 9: But you know, we've watched some teams and then I'll
- 13:44Speaker 9: always watch the guys that you know, I have familiarity
- 13:47Speaker 9: with and similarities with in our system. So any of
- 13:50Speaker 9: those teams, you know, any of those guys that work
- 13:52Speaker 9: with We're always watching each other stuff for sure.
- 13:55Speaker 10: Calid Fordon has Foyer been sort of just to lead
- 13:57Speaker 10: the defense by example.
- 13:59Speaker 7: Over the years.
- 14:00Speaker 9: Yeah, he's like having a coach on the field, you
- 14:02Speaker 9: know what I mean. He's a great guy to coach,
- 14:04Speaker 9: just a great person and great leader. But the thing
- 14:09Speaker 9: that's walking about him is he's never gonna ask anybody
- 14:11Speaker 9: to do anything he isn't doing himself, you know. And
- 14:14Speaker 9: it's not so much what you say, it's what people see,
- 14:16Speaker 9: and they see him doing the right thing.
- 14:17Speaker 7: All the time.
- 14:18Speaker 9: They see him being hard on himself, being critical of himself.
- 14:22Speaker 9: But he really is a great leader and a great
- 14:24Speaker 9: teacher for some of the young guys too, He's been awesome.
- 14:27Speaker 10: Why do you think he doesn't get all the accolade
- 14:29Speaker 10: he's luck the league and spend solo tackles a couple
- 14:31Speaker 10: of times.
- 14:31Speaker 9: I mean, yeah, I mean I think if if people
- 14:34Speaker 9: don't think that guy is an elite player, I mean
- 14:36Speaker 9: they don't know a lot about football.
- 14:37Speaker 7: In my opinion, I mean, he is.
- 14:38Speaker 9: Watching him when I was in Miami over the years,
- 14:42Speaker 9: when he was in Atlanta, I remember watching him.
- 14:44Speaker 7: I'm like, man, this kid is a.
- 14:45Speaker 9: Great player and coming here getting a chance to coach him.
- 14:48Speaker 9: He's everything that I thought he was and more, you.
- 14:50Speaker 7: Know what I mean. He's just a fun guy to coach.
- 14:53Speaker 9: He's super detailed, super smart, like you know, and you
- 14:58Speaker 9: I have such a great appreciation for everything thing that
- 15:00Speaker 9: he tries to do out here every day, and you
- 15:03Speaker 9: know the detail he puts into everything he does. So yeah,
- 15:06Speaker 9: he's he is in my opinion.
- 15:08Speaker 7: Uh, certainly at the top level at that position.
- 15:10Speaker 5: Coach young linebackers outside of Fouria, are you satisfied with
- 15:13Speaker 5: how they're tracking with their progression.
- 15:15Speaker 7: Yeah, I think they're coming along.
- 15:16Speaker 9: I think coach Lucaboo has done a great job with them.
- 15:19Speaker 9: I mean he's forever grinding and and you know, doing
- 15:22Speaker 9: everything he can to bring those guys up to speed.
- 15:25Speaker 9: It's a lot. We've given them a lot this spring.
- 15:28Speaker 9: We kind of kept pushing the install on them. So
- 15:30Speaker 9: when we get back in the summer, we're ready to go.
- 15:32Speaker 9: We're not really leaving any stone unturned. We want to
- 15:35Speaker 9: put that stuff on tape, give ourselves the opportunity to
- 15:38Speaker 9: watch it, you know, tweak it and critique it. And
- 15:40Speaker 9: then for them, they have some familiarity with doing it.
- 15:43Speaker 9: So that's hard for a young guy because you know,
- 15:45Speaker 9: it's not all like hey, base install and here you go, buddy,
- 15:48Speaker 9: let's see you run around and play. We've pushed them
- 15:51Speaker 9: and they've done a great job. Even fundamentally in the
- 15:53Speaker 9: drill work. Temes all over him and he does a
- 15:55Speaker 9: great job. He's pretty innovative too, man, with some of
- 15:58Speaker 9: the stuff he's done with the droll work. This bring
- 16:00Speaker 9: I think has been great and I've been very very
- 16:03Speaker 9: impressed with them.
- 16:04Speaker 10: I would important are these records for guys like Caleb
- 16:06Speaker 10: and Jalen, who you know weren't able to get the last.
- 16:08Speaker 3: Year because the injuries.
- 16:09Speaker 9: Yeah, I'm glad you asked that question. I don't think
- 16:11Speaker 9: there's any substitute for repetition. I think that's the most
- 16:14Speaker 9: important thing. You know, people physical, physiologically, we're all kind
- 16:18Speaker 9: of wired the same way. You know, you get better
- 16:20Speaker 9: at doing things by doing them. You get better at
- 16:22Speaker 9: football by playing football. And I used to work for
- 16:24Speaker 9: a really smart guy. He used to say, you know
- 16:26Speaker 9: that less is more. That that's not true.
- 16:28Speaker 7: More is more. You know, more is more.
- 16:30Speaker 9: If somebody offer you less money or more money, I
- 16:32Speaker 9: can say, no, I want less.
- 16:33Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
- 16:33Speaker 7: It's it's uh, that's just what it is.
- 16:35Speaker 9: So anytime you do more, you're gonna get better at it.
- 16:39Speaker 9: And I think we've been doing a good job of
- 16:40Speaker 9: giving these guys reps, and they've been doing a good
- 16:42Speaker 9: job of you know, taking them to heart and trying
- 16:45Speaker 9: to do the best they can.
- 16:46Speaker 7: Thank you appreciate it. Guys.
- 16:48Speaker 10: Just how important is that for you to get everybody
- 16:50Speaker 10: out there doing anymore and sort of speak about that?
- 16:52Speaker 11: And I mean the bigger thing is it's not important
- 16:55Speaker 11: to me much so according to those kids sitting in
- 16:58Speaker 11: those hospital beds have by no choice, you know what
- 17:02Speaker 11: I'm saying, there's they're stuck in there, have to do
- 17:04Speaker 11: blood transplants. Obviously a first hand experience seeing sometimes where
- 17:08Speaker 11: you know, we have to wait, you know, for treatment
- 17:10Speaker 11: because we don't have any blood stock. So just to
- 17:12Speaker 11: be able to give back and help kids in need
- 17:16Speaker 11: or just anybody in need, I think that's kind of
- 17:19Speaker 11: what we're doing. And so for me, man, just to
- 17:22Speaker 11: bring my awareness, bring the awareness to all use my platform,
- 17:26Speaker 11: help you guys, you know, have you guys help me
- 17:28Speaker 11: spread the wealth, not only for myself, but for the
- 17:31Speaker 11: kids that really needed out there.
- 17:32Speaker 3: So thank you for asking.
- 17:34Speaker 4: E've been part of a number of successful Jaguar units
- 17:37Speaker 4: over the years. What is it about this group in
- 17:39Speaker 4: particular that separates them from the previous years of success?
- 17:42Speaker 3: You said, Jaguar what units units?
- 17:46Speaker 11: As a defensive unit or a team both?
- 17:50Speaker 3: I mean as a team.
- 17:52Speaker 11: You know, we have a lot of great coaches, not
- 17:54Speaker 11: saying we haven't had great coaches in the past, but
- 17:56Speaker 11: we have a lot of great coaches on both sides
- 17:58Speaker 11: of the BALLA camp has done ahead of a job
- 18:01Speaker 11: on just being his authentic self. And when you can
- 18:03Speaker 11: be your authentic self every single day and you can
- 18:06Speaker 11: be a leader of men as well, that just brings
- 18:08Speaker 11: out the best into everybody, makes everybody want to compete
- 18:11Speaker 11: at a high level. And if you don't perform at
- 18:14Speaker 11: a high level, you're gonna actually feel like you're not crap.
- 18:18Speaker 11: And that's the feeling that nobody wants to have because
- 18:20Speaker 11: we're depending on each other because we are a family,
- 18:23Speaker 11: and that's the family unit that he wants to bring.
- 18:25Speaker 11: And as a team, you tell about Liam, Liam brings
- 18:27Speaker 11: both got both both sides of the ball together and
- 18:31Speaker 11: you know it's not just offense versus defense.
- 18:33Speaker 3: That's it.
- 18:33Speaker 11: It's just the Jaguars versus Jaguars for us to get
- 18:37Speaker 11: better every single day, and that's the model, and that's
- 18:38Speaker 11: the message. We want to protect each other and make
- 18:42Speaker 11: sure that we're also getting good work because we want
- 18:44Speaker 11: to be the best, and we're going to compete at
- 18:45Speaker 11: the high level to be the best.
- 18:46Speaker 3: Good question. Oh sorry, two years ago.
- 18:48Speaker 12: I think you talked about gaining weight.
- 18:50Speaker 9: Last year losing weight put a little bit more on
- 18:53Speaker 9: this year.
- 18:54Speaker 11: I'm still the same way I just look goods.
- 19:02Speaker 4: So it's not a repeat of mass kicks.
- 19:03Speaker 3: Ass this guy? Know you do look at how How
- 19:10Speaker 3: have you changed your body a little bit? Going in?
- 19:13Speaker 11: I don't know.
- 19:14Speaker 3: I work out good. Does it feel different? What feels different?
- 19:19Speaker 3: Does it? Do you feel different? I feel great?
- 19:22Speaker 11: I feel great running around out there looking y'all brought
- 19:26Speaker 11: his practice? How'd y'all think I looked for the first time? Soon?
- 19:31Speaker 3: Was their intentionality?
- 19:33Speaker 12: Bigger?
- 19:35Speaker 3: Is their intentionality on your body getting bigger? I don't
- 19:38Speaker 3: know bigger though? How big do you think I am?
- 19:43Speaker 3: Sixty five? Okay? How big do you think I am?
- 19:45Speaker 3: I was probably gonna say, like two minutes to sixty eight?
- 19:49Speaker 2: Maybe not.
- 19:52Speaker 3: There it is? How are you in the ball?
- 19:55Speaker 6: Hey?
- 19:56Speaker 8: Yes, you didn't.
- 19:56Speaker 2: You didn't go You didn't go back to Arizona?
- 19:58Speaker 3: Was there? I did go back to Arizona? Yeah?
- 20:00Speaker 2: So do you feel like you're done there for this year?
- 20:03Speaker 3: Are you only go to Arizona in the beginning? Now?
- 20:08Speaker 3: If I'm not in OTAs, I would be in.
- 20:10Speaker 11: Arizona, Okay, But I'm hearing ot As intentional.
- 20:13Speaker 3: Year two to gain some continuity with this group?
- 20:20Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean you know, I mean I think I
- 20:23Speaker 11: think we have a good chance to win the whole thing.
- 20:27Speaker 11: And you know, talking to the coaches during all season,
- 20:30Speaker 11: you know, the plan was, you know, we had a
- 20:31Speaker 11: different strategy coming to this, you know, attacking this program
- 20:35Speaker 11: right here, and you know, so far, you know, I
- 20:38Speaker 11: think we've gotten better as a unit.
- 20:39Speaker 3: Uh, there's still steps.
- 20:40Speaker 11: That we need to take to become the defense that
- 20:42Speaker 11: we need to become. Do I think we're there right now?
- 20:46Speaker 11: I don't think so. But do I see the growth
- 20:49Speaker 11: in the mindset that everybody has to attack each and
- 20:51Speaker 11: every day, Yes, I do. So that kind of gives
- 20:53Speaker 11: me hope that to know that we are taking those steps,
- 20:56Speaker 11: and you know, we come back training count.
- 20:59Speaker 3: You know, put past you know, obviously be.
- 21:01Speaker 11: A little bit more physical for both ends, and uh,
- 21:04Speaker 11: I think that's when we can really try to test
- 21:07Speaker 11: to see what the growth we really had, because now
- 21:09Speaker 11: you start putting physicality into assignment stuff, if you really
- 21:13Speaker 11: paying attention to one thing and the other, and that's
- 21:16Speaker 11: kind of what we're well, you know, obviously I'm not
- 21:18Speaker 11: gonna say I'm money for it, but you know, I'm
- 21:20Speaker 11: looking forward to that time comes.
- 21:21Speaker 12: What's the next step for you and trait you mentioned
- 21:27Speaker 12: that there's another step to take. I know, you guys
- 21:28Speaker 12: push each other every.
- 21:29Speaker 11: Year obviously, you know, you step on the field, you
- 21:32Speaker 11: want to be the best player in the National Football League.
- 21:36Speaker 11: So you know, looking at him, he wants to be
- 21:38Speaker 11: the best. I want to be the best. Let's become
- 21:39Speaker 11: the best duo. You know when you talk about duals
- 21:42Speaker 11: in the National League, you know that's the new thing. Now,
- 21:45Speaker 11: what's the duo to do with this?
- 21:46Speaker 3: Do all that?
- 21:48Speaker 11: So you know that's what they're talking about. Let's be
- 21:50Speaker 11: a part of that conversation. Let's solidify ourselves as the
- 21:54Speaker 11: best duo. And uh, you know, these are things that
- 21:56Speaker 11: we talk about.
- 21:57Speaker 3: These are the expectations that we have for each other.
- 21:59Speaker 11: But you know, my level of play is at a
- 22:01Speaker 11: high level and his level is a play that comes naturally,
- 22:05Speaker 11: and that's kind of our mindset. You know, we want
- 22:07Speaker 11: to be be Trey wants to break my record. I
- 22:09Speaker 11: want to beat my record. I want to get Miles
- 22:11Speaker 11: Garrett record. And uh, you know, these are the growths
- 22:14Speaker 11: that we're taking. If we can both achieve those things,
- 22:15Speaker 11: obviously will become the best deals.
- 22:18Speaker 10: So what do you seek from the to the two
- 22:20Speaker 10: rookie defensive ends Zach Durphy and h Watsley Williams.
- 22:24Speaker 3: I mean, you know they're in the playbook obviously.
- 22:26Speaker 7: You know.
- 22:27Speaker 3: Again, you know we haven't done anything yet, you know
- 22:30Speaker 3: what I mean? And you know, and that's not a test.
- 22:32Speaker 11: I'm not saying anything negative about them, but like you know,
- 22:35Speaker 11: in order to see what you know, how you really
- 22:37Speaker 11: play football, how the old line is really gonna set you,
- 22:40Speaker 11: how they're gonna come at you on the Belana scrimmage.
- 22:42Speaker 3: Are you gonna set the edge?
- 22:44Speaker 8: You know?
- 22:44Speaker 11: Are you gonna be able to set the edge, get off,
- 22:46Speaker 11: make a play? Are you gonna be able to have
- 22:48Speaker 11: your mindset knowing what you're gonna do in the rush
- 22:50Speaker 11: playing and execute it. If he gives you something you
- 22:52Speaker 11: can go power? Are you gon go speed? Edge all
- 22:54Speaker 11: get to the inside. But instinctually they're playing really fast,
- 22:57Speaker 11: which is a good sign right now. But again, like
- 23:00Speaker 11: you know, ask me discussion once we get into camp
- 23:02Speaker 11: and then I can give you a better in depth
- 23:04Speaker 11: answer of how I really feel. But outside of that, man,
- 23:06Speaker 11: they're great kids. They're great, great young adults. They're they're great,
- 23:11Speaker 11: they're great men, and they're very responsive for themselves and
- 23:15Speaker 11: for the team.
- 23:16Speaker 6: Seeing as you look and way exactly the same.
- 23:19Speaker 3: Where do you want to get better? I mean, you know,
- 23:24Speaker 3: you know we have a good thing.
- 23:25Speaker 11: You know, our coaching staff does a good job on
- 23:28Speaker 11: you know, find your three better, three best, and you know,
- 23:31Speaker 11: when you can sit back and you can analyze yourself,
- 23:33Speaker 11: which is you know what I do. I look at
- 23:35Speaker 11: my tape where can I get better in? And I
- 23:37Speaker 11: can write these things down and then you go to
- 23:39Speaker 11: your coaching staff and they say, hey, these are the
- 23:41Speaker 11: areas and when they can match together, that's a good
- 23:44Speaker 11: sign of we're all on the same page.
- 23:46Speaker 3: And you know, for me, it's just you know, keying
- 23:48Speaker 3: the ball a little bit better.
- 23:49Speaker 11: You know, a lot of those sacks a lot, I
- 23:51Speaker 11: mean a lot of those pressures, A lot of those
- 23:52Speaker 11: hits can become sacks if I screwed up on the
- 23:55Speaker 11: ball a little bit more by just a hair, you know,
- 23:57Speaker 11: if I can get off, if I can you know,
- 23:59Speaker 11: anticipate the snap kind of a little bit better. These
- 24:01Speaker 11: are all things that those pressures, those hits can become sacks.
- 24:05Speaker 3: And first turnover. So you know we're all on the
- 24:08Speaker 3: same page of that.
- 24:08Speaker 11: That's one thing that I've been trying to emphasize this
- 24:10Speaker 11: off season, just a little details and uh and and
- 24:13Speaker 11: and being on it, you know, every single play and
- 24:15Speaker 11: not taking the playoff on those details.
- 24:18Speaker 3: And that's kind of like my main focus is of
- 24:20Speaker 3: this OTAs and we're doing good with it.
- 24:24Speaker 10: You're somebody who watches a lot, just kind of picking
- 24:26Speaker 10: up on the things you do.
- 24:27Speaker 3: What have you kind of seen from him?
- 24:28Speaker 10: Just as mindset, you know, second guy going into a
- 24:30Speaker 10: second year, he kind of wants to make an impact.
- 24:32Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean his first sure, obviously he didn't play,
- 24:35Speaker 11: so for him, this is a show us who you are,
- 24:39Speaker 11: prove yourself.
- 24:40Speaker 3: And I think every day, you know, he's dang these things. Man,
- 24:42Speaker 3: I'm sorry. You know, he's attacking every day as a pro.
- 24:46Speaker 6: Uh.
- 24:46Speaker 3: He's taking care of his body.
- 24:48Speaker 11: I'm not saying he's being me and the children room
- 24:50Speaker 11: every morning, but he's right next to me, you know,
- 24:52Speaker 11: working on something. You know, he's eating the right food,
- 24:56Speaker 11: he's taking the right notes, he's asking the right questions
- 24:59Speaker 11: and uh, you know, and it's translating out here on
- 25:01Speaker 11: the field. You know, there's a couple of good rushes
- 25:03Speaker 11: that he had today and I can't wait to look
- 25:04Speaker 11: at him, to kind of just see where he's at
- 25:06Speaker 11: and to tell him, hey, next time, you know, once
- 25:09Speaker 11: you set him up her hair, what's your counter to that?
- 25:11Speaker 3: Because you know he's gonna overset you.
- 25:12Speaker 11: He's gonna do this, and you know he's taking those steps,
- 25:15Speaker 11: and you know, I like Jalen and then you know
- 25:18Speaker 11: he plays and running really well. You know he's going
- 25:20Speaker 11: to continue to grow and get better for us.
- 25:22Speaker 8: Like you said, not a ton he can glean necessarily
- 25:25Speaker 8: right now because there are no pads on. But on
- 25:27Speaker 8: the other side of the ball, what have you seen
- 25:29Speaker 8: from the offense in terms of taking the next step,
- 25:31Speaker 8: whether that's in the run game or the past game,
- 25:33Speaker 8: or maybe sure a couple of players in particular that
- 25:35Speaker 8: you feel like, oh wow, like I'm now seeing the
- 25:37Speaker 8: work of the off season.
- 25:39Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean we got a lot of obviously the
- 25:41Speaker 11: on line, you know, I see those see those guys
- 25:42Speaker 11: every day. Again, like when you talk about pass rush,
- 25:46Speaker 11: I think you know Ton has gone. I think every
- 25:48Speaker 11: guy has gotten better, and I think we've gotten better
- 25:51Speaker 11: as a whole. But again, no pads, it's kind of
- 25:54Speaker 11: hard to run game. You can't really get the run
- 25:55Speaker 11: game going because like, you don't want to hurt each other,
- 25:58Speaker 11: but you also want to be in your right fit,
- 25:59Speaker 11: so there's a little competition there. But as you look
- 26:02Speaker 11: at our skill guys, you know, BT's having a heck
- 26:04Speaker 11: of a camp.
- 26:05Speaker 3: Uh.
- 26:05Speaker 11: He had a heck of a day to day at
- 26:06Speaker 11: which I don't like, but it's good to see, you know, Uh, Jacobe,
- 26:10Speaker 11: you know true professional pros pro You know Parker, you
- 26:14Speaker 11: know Parker Man.
- 26:15Speaker 3: Parker has been.
- 26:16Speaker 11: Absolutely everywhere this all season. You look at our even
- 26:19Speaker 11: our tight ends. Man Tanner had a heck of a
- 26:22Speaker 11: play right, and he talks crap, you know what I'm saying,
- 26:23Speaker 11: Like he you know, he talks to talk, so you
- 26:26Speaker 11: know when you get strange. You know, one of the
- 26:28Speaker 11: most physical tight ends I've seen in a very long time,
- 26:32Speaker 11: but can also run run good routes. And then Trevor,
- 26:37Speaker 11: you know, putting the ball where he needs where he
- 26:38Speaker 11: needs to put it at. But again, you know, how
- 26:41Speaker 11: how good can we get each other better every single day?
- 26:44Speaker 11: And you know that's our motto and we're gonna.
- 26:47Speaker 3: Stick with it.
- 26:47Speaker 11: Would Tanner, I mean, he don't tries to talk me yet,
- 26:52Speaker 11: you know what I'm saying, I ain't put my hands
- 26:54Speaker 11: on him yet, but you know, just to see him
- 26:56Speaker 11: make plays and to celebrate and not just like catch
- 26:59Speaker 11: the ball, get a touchdown and just turn back and
- 27:01Speaker 11: get to the huddle.
- 27:02Speaker 3: Like I want to see you talk crowd. I want
- 27:04Speaker 3: to see you show bull. I want to see you.
- 27:06Speaker 11: You can't touch me, you can't hold me, you know,
- 27:07Speaker 11: I like, I want to see that, and he does.
- 27:10Speaker 11: He does a good job of that. So big target,
- 27:14Speaker 11: you know, can you know, really fast, can move well.
- 27:17Speaker 11: I think he's gonna be a good asset for us.
- 27:24Speaker 1: Appreciate.
- 27:25Speaker 12: I was just saying j was your rookie last year.
- 27:28Speaker 12: He started his foundation this year. Off the field, just
- 27:30Speaker 12: what type of the guy is?
- 27:32Speaker 11: Uh?
- 27:35Speaker 3: I love bj man.
- 27:36Speaker 1: Uh.
- 27:37Speaker 11: You know, he's one of the funniest people have been
- 27:40Speaker 11: around in the football in this football world. On the field,
- 27:44Speaker 11: you know, he's very type A. But off the field
- 27:47Speaker 11: man he is he is. He is a whole different
- 27:51Speaker 11: person man. And when he puts his mind to something,
- 27:53Speaker 11: he does it. Like you know, he went we went
- 27:55Speaker 11: to London and he got the shopping. He's like, man,
- 27:57Speaker 11: I like this fashion stuff. Now he's a model, you.
- 28:00Speaker 2: Know what I mean.
- 28:00Speaker 11: Like it's he's he's so funny. Man's he's a great person,
- 28:03Speaker 11: great teammate, great brother. He's accountable outside the building. When
- 28:07Speaker 11: you need him to do something, when you need to
- 28:09Speaker 11: be somewhere, he's right there. And you know he's been
- 28:13Speaker 11: a good he's been. He was a good rook for
- 28:14Speaker 11: me last year and he's a good he's he's a
- 28:16Speaker 11: good leader to the younger guys.
- 28:18Speaker 8: Now.
- 28:18Speaker 11: You know he leads by example and his foundation. I'm
- 28:22Speaker 11: not gonna be able to make it to his foundation,
- 28:24Speaker 11: but I know he's doing something for the kids to
- 28:26Speaker 11: go watch the movies. I wish I could make it
- 28:30Speaker 11: to help him, but it's a good thing that he
- 28:32Speaker 11: can do something to get back to the community.
- 28:33Speaker 3: Man, it's always good to to not just think about yourself.
- 28:38Speaker 3: Did I do what? I'm not obligated to speak on that.
- 28:45Speaker 3: To teeth when I'm trying out, you can pay to
- 28:48Speaker 3: get those fixed. Thank you, guys, Appreciate you.
