Jags Drive Time: Wednesday, August 28 · The Jacksonville Jaguars Official Podcast Network

0:02
Speaker 1: I'm celebrating twenty five years of Jaguar's football. There's the staff,
0:06
Speaker 1: the place, but the kick is a Fitters on the way.
0:08
Speaker 1: It's like Collas Jaguars. Did you Jack, Jack Warris, did
0:16
Speaker 1: you Jaguars Drive Time? Ryan Sex steps that John Ashley.
0:25
Speaker 1: Jaguars Drive Time starts right now. Good morning and welcome
0:30
Speaker 1: Jack's Drive Time Wednesday morning, brought to you by Duval
0:32
Speaker 1: Motor Company. The last preseason game tomorrow night against the
0:36
Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons coming to town. And right before the show,
0:39
Speaker 1: I was showing John, who's a huge fan of pop sockets,
0:42
Speaker 1: my Jaguar pop socket. Bought it at Target, and it's
0:46
Speaker 1: the best fifth teen dollars I've ever spent, ever spent. Yeah,
0:50
Speaker 1: look how fitting it is. I'm on brand now every
0:54
Speaker 1: day with my pop socket. I'd have to think about
0:57
Speaker 1: what's the best fifteen dollars I've ever spent. It was
1:00
Speaker 1: probably bottle of wine or what you buy every night.
1:03
Speaker 1: Uh not every night, but yeah, no, witch is a
1:06
Speaker 1: standard in my house. My pop socket free, which makes
1:09
Speaker 1: it better than your pop socket. It's just simply not better.
1:14
Speaker 1: I don't even know what that is. It's a new era,
1:16
Speaker 1: I believe I got it, John, You're you're not fond
1:19
Speaker 1: of spending fifteen on anything anything much less identified that.
1:23
Speaker 1: That's fifteen dollars you've spent maybe in the last week.
1:27
Speaker 1: Usually when I'm spending fifteen dollars, I'm usually feeling pain.
1:33
Speaker 1: I would guess an album back in the days, back
1:36
Speaker 1: in the day, like a CD was about fourteen, so
1:39
Speaker 1: that was usually the price. So what's the best album
1:42
Speaker 1: you ever bought? And we'll just to sign it. Oh,
1:45
Speaker 1: I mean that's too tough. Probably Britney Spears. Yeah, one
1:51
Speaker 1: of the best albums, Like Britney Spears, I love it well,
1:58
Speaker 1: or justin Bieber because I h I'm a believer, I
2:02
Speaker 1: am people. I'm just I'm gonna sit here and watching
2:07
Speaker 1: from policious. I've never heard that term, and I never
2:09
Speaker 1: want to hear it again. All Right, As we know,
2:12
Speaker 1: the final roster is set this week, and a big
2:14
Speaker 1: thing one is anything is possible. A lot of guys
2:16
Speaker 1: fighting for those final spots on the roster. But you
2:19
Speaker 1: look at a guy like a J Boy who was
2:21
Speaker 1: fighting that same fight, and he's a perfect example that
2:23
Speaker 1: anything is possible on this roster. It's something that they
2:27
Speaker 1: really learned on their own. But you know, I always
2:29
Speaker 1: tell my story to them, you know, just to let
2:31
Speaker 1: them know that anybody could really do it. If I
2:33
Speaker 1: was able to, why can't you. And just always stay
2:35
Speaker 1: in there corn let them know if they need any
2:37
Speaker 1: help that I'm here to help them. And that's one
2:38
Speaker 1: thing that I've been doing so we know this league
2:41
Speaker 1: is definitely unpredictable. And big thing too is you never
2:44
Speaker 1: know even the guys that think they are safe on
2:46
Speaker 1: this roster. Jeff Swain says, you can't get too comfortable.
2:51
Speaker 1: It's not just rookies and guys who are you know,
2:53
Speaker 1: undrafted free agents, It's it's kind of everyone, you know,
2:55
Speaker 1: because there's you're always walking that line, you know, between
2:58
Speaker 1: having a job and not so anyone can fall into
3:01
Speaker 1: that that that category, and you're trying to help anybody can.
3:05
Speaker 1: And big thing three is a balancing act. We've been
3:07
Speaker 1: asked a lot this week. Is Nick Foles ready for
3:10
Speaker 1: the regular season. He's barely gotten any snaps this preseason
3:13
Speaker 1: during training camp, especially in games. Is he ready? And
3:16
Speaker 1: we asked Nick Foles that post game after the Dolphins game,
3:19
Speaker 1: and he said, I came off the bench cold. I
3:21
Speaker 1: think I'll be ready. The thing I've said is that
3:23
Speaker 1: I've come off the bench extremely cold at the end
3:25
Speaker 1: of the season with a you know, torn elbow, um,
3:30
Speaker 1: and I was able to play. And I know that
3:31
Speaker 1: torn elbow was something that was brought out in public
3:34
Speaker 1: last week, and you know that was hidden, but you
3:36
Speaker 1: know I was able to play with that and trust people, um,
3:40
Speaker 1: you know during that time. And that's what's about. It's
3:42
Speaker 1: about those relationships, about caring for one another, um. And
3:46
Speaker 1: you know the locker rooms full of that right now.
3:49
Speaker 1: So guys, let's go back all the way to big thing.
3:51
Speaker 1: When you look at a J Boy, who's a perfect
3:53
Speaker 1: example of anything can happen. Back then, he was really
3:56
Speaker 1: no different than a Brion Borders or t Hayes and
3:59
Speaker 1: now look at him. You know, um, I think this
4:01
Speaker 1: is gonna be a bigger story next year when they
4:04
Speaker 1: start talking about paying Miles Jack what they do with
4:07
Speaker 1: unickagakway where Jalen Ramsey is um. When you pay a
4:12
Speaker 1: J Boy and Andrew Norwell, who were both undrafted rookie
4:15
Speaker 1: free agents at the top of the market, you have
4:18
Speaker 1: to go find guys like that. You you not only
4:20
Speaker 1: need your draft picks to make the team, But you
4:22
Speaker 1: have to go find your own a j boy, your
4:24
Speaker 1: own Andrew Norwell. I don't look at this roster and
4:27
Speaker 1: see an undrafted rookie free agent. I mean maybe maybe
4:31
Speaker 1: Joe Giles Harris from Duke, but I think he's more
4:33
Speaker 1: likely to be on the practice squad. Yeah, I think
4:35
Speaker 1: he's a practiced Did you see my point? There's not
4:37
Speaker 1: there's not many undrafted rookies that we're talking about. I mean,
4:41
Speaker 1: Brown Border has been around the league a little bit.
4:43
Speaker 1: It's not like he's a walk in the door like
4:45
Speaker 1: Trey Herndon was a year ago. Yeah. I think wind
4:48
Speaker 1: Guard's got a chance to make it at safety. Um.
4:51
Speaker 1: I think what we could be seeing is what's it's
4:54
Speaker 1: not as sexiest story this week. What usually happens with
4:57
Speaker 1: the undrafted the guy is you make it as a
5:00
Speaker 1: practice squad guy, somebody gets injured, you play a few games. C. J.
5:04
Speaker 1: Reeves comes to mind as a guy last year who
5:07
Speaker 1: made it that way and is now sort of on
5:10
Speaker 1: our radar as a guy that we all sort of
5:11
Speaker 1: know is going to be on the team. Didn't have
5:14
Speaker 1: that drama last year of this week. I think what
5:17
Speaker 1: will happen next year? Ryan. I think this team is
5:19
Speaker 1: prepared itself well for that eventuality by having rookie free
5:24
Speaker 1: agents in the past. I'm thinking to Trey Herndon, you
5:27
Speaker 1: it's better do that before and kind of have it
5:31
Speaker 1: in the system ready than it is to think you're
5:33
Speaker 1: gonna go get it. Well, That's what I'm saying right now.
5:36
Speaker 1: You have to be doing that. A j boyer was
5:38
Speaker 1: ready to step in at one point in Houston because
5:40
Speaker 1: they developed him. It's kind of like we talked about
5:42
Speaker 1: the other day. You don't claim your depth. You're not
5:46
Speaker 1: going out on the waiver wire and claiming depth maybe
5:49
Speaker 1: a player that makes your team better. You're building it
5:52
Speaker 1: over time by developing guys like Hayes Herndon. Last year.
5:56
Speaker 1: Jared Wilson's maybe the best example. He's your starting safety.
6:00
Speaker 1: He was an undrafted rookie free agent. You have to
6:02
Speaker 1: have these guys in the system now. I think Trey
6:05
Speaker 1: Herndon could be next year's Look. I mean, boys, boy
6:09
Speaker 1: is a fifteen and a half million dollar hit next year.
6:11
Speaker 1: It's not a stretch to think this might be his
6:13
Speaker 1: last year in a Jaguars uniform. So you're looking at
6:15
Speaker 1: Herndon's development as being key. The thing is, I don't
6:19
Speaker 1: know that there's any rookie free agents outside of Wind
6:21
Speaker 1: Gurd or Joe Giles Harris who most likely they're going
6:25
Speaker 1: to be practice squad guys who make this active fifty three.
6:28
Speaker 1: But you're always putting guys in the pipeline, and that
6:31
Speaker 1: secondary is a great example of it, because you have
6:33
Speaker 1: Ta Hayes and Trey Herndon and Win Gurd who's back there,
6:36
Speaker 1: and C. J Reevus and Jared Wilson. I mean, you're
6:39
Speaker 1: littered with him. When you're gonna have a twenty plus
6:41
Speaker 1: million dollar a year corner, you have to have inexpensive
6:47
Speaker 1: talent around them that's been developed. And it comes like
6:50
Speaker 1: boy A says, if he did it, there's a lot
6:52
Speaker 1: of guys that could do it, because boy A wasn't
6:54
Speaker 1: wanted on Draft Day but found a spot that he
6:57
Speaker 1: thought fit him, and in that ends, chose wisely in
7:01
Speaker 1: Houston where he was developed so that he could get
7:04
Speaker 1: his payday. Right. You hate to lose a player like that,
7:07
Speaker 1: but you understand that you will eventually, and so you've
7:10
Speaker 1: got to have someone over a couple of years that
7:11
Speaker 1: you've developed. It's got a big thing through the balancing act.
7:14
Speaker 1: Everyone's been asking, excuse me, if Nick Foles is ready
7:19
Speaker 1: for the regular season. I'll sure all of us sick
7:21
Speaker 1: think the same thing. Of course, he's ready. We've seen
7:23
Speaker 1: him in practice, but I understand the fans questions that
7:26
Speaker 1: they've barely seen him at all. Yeah, I mean, I
7:28
Speaker 1: think I think it's a topic, and I think, uh,
7:32
Speaker 1: Doug Moron would tell you it's a topic. I don't
7:35
Speaker 1: think Doug Moron thinks from a football purely being in
7:40
Speaker 1: high gear point of view, that the approach he took
7:43
Speaker 1: in the preseason is ideal. He said that if it
7:46
Speaker 1: was an ideal world in a vacuum, he wouldn't have
7:49
Speaker 1: done it this way. But he's trying to figure out
7:50
Speaker 1: for the long term how to keep his team healthiest. Um.
7:53
Speaker 1: I think it will be a work in progress. Earlier,
7:55
Speaker 1: I don't think they'll be as good offensively against Kansas
7:59
Speaker 1: City as they will be in Week six because they're
8:02
Speaker 1: gonna have to learn each other a little bit. But
8:04
Speaker 1: Dougs trying to figure out over sixteen games, how do
8:07
Speaker 1: I have this thing healthy enough to make it through
8:09
Speaker 1: and avoid what I did last season. I think they're
8:12
Speaker 1: gonna be Kansas City. The defense is it's gonna have
8:14
Speaker 1: to play well, and I would anticipate the offense perhaps
8:18
Speaker 1: struggling a little bit the first few series, maybe finding itself.
8:20
Speaker 1: But I don't think this was the idea to uh
8:23
Speaker 1: away from a smoothness on on offense standpoint prepare. But
8:27
Speaker 1: I think the defense is good enough to overcome that. Well,
8:31
Speaker 1: you've alluded to the fact that people just have to
8:33
Speaker 1: accept the first month of the season isn't going to
8:35
Speaker 1: be as good as the second month of the third month,
8:37
Speaker 1: and not just infensive but lead why you know, the
8:40
Speaker 1: quality of football because of the quality of preparation time. Um,
8:45
Speaker 1: it's going to have to take a back seat. That's
8:49
Speaker 1: the payoff, right, Doug Marone, he's hoping that in getting
8:54
Speaker 1: his defense to give more in September until the offense
8:57
Speaker 1: is ready, it's worth it to have his guys rested. Um.
9:04
Speaker 1: That said, we did see some good things the other night.
9:06
Speaker 1: It was better in the second two series in the
9:08
Speaker 1: first two series, so I'm not sure it's gonna take
9:11
Speaker 1: forever to get to a functional level. Here's the thing.
9:13
Speaker 1: If if it's slow early on, but guys stay healthy
9:17
Speaker 1: in November and December, and are there for your stretch run.
9:20
Speaker 1: It was worth it. It was worth it all. If
9:23
Speaker 1: they're slow early on and then guys are injured late,
9:28
Speaker 1: well then was it worth it. Doug Maron said yesterday
9:30
Speaker 1: he had to do something. He couldn't sit still and
9:32
Speaker 1: just hope that this year would be different than last
9:36
Speaker 1: from an injury perspective. So it's a it's a conditioned effort.
9:40
Speaker 1: He understands there's only so much the body has in it.
9:43
Speaker 1: He is trying to make sure that in the second
9:46
Speaker 1: half of the season the bodies are conditioned to the contact,
9:50
Speaker 1: that their stress level is not as high, and that
9:53
Speaker 1: they're able to perform at a high level. And the
9:55
Speaker 1: only way he needed to do that was not take
9:57
Speaker 1: those reps off the front end, but them on the
10:00
Speaker 1: back end. Could you imagine if he made no change
10:03
Speaker 1: at all after having sixteen guys finished on injury. It's
10:06
Speaker 1: that old definition of insanity is to keep doing the
10:09
Speaker 1: same thing and expect a different result. He wouldn't do that.
10:11
Speaker 1: He couldn't do that. By the way, Tom Icelinsky in
10:14
Speaker 1: that department down there that runs the you know, the
10:16
Speaker 1: strength and conditioning program, they have a lot of data
10:19
Speaker 1: they use I can't say it, you know, for them,
10:23
Speaker 1: but they're probably at the forefront in terms of how
10:27
Speaker 1: a team uses science to get their players ready. Milo
10:30
Speaker 1: is constantly digging into new ideas. I talked to him
10:33
Speaker 1: all the time about it. The science gets way above
10:35
Speaker 1: my head. He offers that to Doug, and Doug said,
10:39
Speaker 1: yesterday he's read it all. He goes he called it
10:41
Speaker 1: all that crap because he's a football coach, right. He
10:43
Speaker 1: wants to worry about plays, but he understands that the
10:46
Speaker 1: science behind this is working to find the solution. But
10:50
Speaker 1: we're dealing with the human body and so science is
10:53
Speaker 1: not exact right. When we come back some ozone snapshot

Speaker 1: Kivanna for our season finale against the Colts College Jaguars
13:06
Speaker 1: representative to day Mail and taking Slaver congregulations he needed.
13:11
Speaker 1: It's a huge accomplishment on myan. So Jeff Lagman, Jaguars analysts,
13:16
Speaker 1: we know you know him, Yeah, good guy, good cook,
13:22
Speaker 1: very into film, is very knowledgeable about it, really into
13:26
Speaker 1: film study. He took a look at Josh Allen. We
13:28
Speaker 1: know he had an impressive performance, but he sees things
13:31
Speaker 1: that even we don't see. Here's Josh Allen is a
13:36
Speaker 1: right defensive end and he's in a two point stance
13:38
Speaker 1: which he rushes from the two point stands very well.
13:41
Speaker 1: But in this case it's a fire zone. So the
13:43
Speaker 1: two inside linebackers are coming and then he is dropping
13:46
Speaker 1: to the flat and look at the coverage on the
13:48
Speaker 1: running back. First of all, the awareness to avoid what
13:52
Speaker 1: was a design pick play by the tight end. He's
13:55
Speaker 1: aware of it. He'll avoids them. And then the closing
13:58
Speaker 1: speed and athleticism to make the tackle for a loss
14:01
Speaker 1: on a swing pass by a two hundred and sixtund
14:05
Speaker 1: defensive m Are you kidding me? So? No question, he
14:09
Speaker 1: had a great, great performance, the talk of the week.
14:12
Speaker 1: But did you think he was gonna have a performance
14:14
Speaker 1: like that when he went into the game. Well, I
14:16
Speaker 1: don't know that you can ever think that a guy
14:18
Speaker 1: is gonna flash as dominant as he did. I don't
14:21
Speaker 1: know that the Dolphins offensive line is all that good,
14:24
Speaker 1: not on that side, and the left tackle is pretty
14:26
Speaker 1: darn good. But he the way that he slid through
14:29
Speaker 1: the block that he just showed the awareness that's generally
14:33
Speaker 1: not something you see from a lot of rookies in
14:35
Speaker 1: the National Football League. Uh. He's big, strong, physical, tough, smart.
14:40
Speaker 1: He's everything that you wanted a football player. He's almost
14:44
Speaker 1: two dred and seventy pounds. He can put his hand
14:46
Speaker 1: on the ground and rush the passer, or he can
14:48
Speaker 1: play the run. He's an every down player. He's your future.
14:53
Speaker 1: What's striking to me? And Jeff Obvis does a great
14:56
Speaker 1: job of breaking down the wise of that. When he
15:00
Speaker 1: he's pursuing the running back in the flat, he looks
15:03
Speaker 1: like an outside linebacker doing it in terms of his speed,
15:07
Speaker 1: in terms of the ease of which he does it.
15:09
Speaker 1: He makes things on the outside of the defense look
15:13
Speaker 1: easy that you think you're watching a two pound kid
15:17
Speaker 1: do it, and and he's two D and seventy And
15:19
Speaker 1: you can imagine a running back who's used to a
15:22
Speaker 1: cornerback or an outside linebacker tackle on that situation. You
15:25
Speaker 1: look and there's this two D seventy pound, fifty extra
15:28
Speaker 1: pounds espich usually coming at you. Um, he's a force
15:32
Speaker 1: and I think he's the next superstar in the stand.
15:35
Speaker 1: He is Tony Brackens. Uh. And that is saying something
15:39
Speaker 1: because you talked to Logoman or Bisselli or Clyde Simmons
15:42
Speaker 1: or any of the guys that played with Tony Brackens
15:44
Speaker 1: back in the day, and they were just all in
15:47
Speaker 1: awe Astley. I'm seriously, he told us a story when
15:49
Speaker 1: he was in here about not wanting to face Brack
15:51
Speaker 1: and then we're talking about a Pro Bowl left or
15:53
Speaker 1: right tackle and Brack jammed him. I mean, Leo was
15:57
Speaker 1: famous for his punch and he said, WHOA, what is
15:59
Speaker 1: this guy about? Brack was special. This guy is Tony Brackens.
16:02
Speaker 1: I think this kid has a chance to be better
16:04
Speaker 1: than Tony. And we're saying the regulation. His consistency and
16:11
Speaker 1: against the run, he was very, very good, but had Yeah,
16:18
Speaker 1: but I don't I don't remember Tony being as consistent
16:21
Speaker 1: against the run as this kid has a chance to be.
16:24
Speaker 1: This guy has a chance to be Calais level against
16:27
Speaker 1: the run, was dominant against the run when he wanted
16:29
Speaker 1: to be right, But I think this kid has a
16:33
Speaker 1: chance to be Calais Campbell type against the rhume with
16:36
Speaker 1: the ability to be Von Miller type ed drusher. It's rare.
16:40
Speaker 1: Tony Brackens would be a Hall of Fame candidate if
16:44
Speaker 1: he loved the game of football. He didn't. He used
16:47
Speaker 1: football to create his life and now he's living in
16:49
Speaker 1: Texas on a ranch. Football was a tool to him.
16:52
Speaker 1: Um Alan, I think loves the game. That might be
16:56
Speaker 1: the difference. And if that's the case, then I agree
16:57
Speaker 1: with John he has a chance to be better. To
17:00
Speaker 1: say that right now, I just I look at him
17:02
Speaker 1: and I that's the last player that dominated the line
17:05
Speaker 1: of scrimmage. Right. For all of unique and gays great talents,
17:09
Speaker 1: he's never dominated the line of scrimmage like this guy did.
17:12
Speaker 1: That's the difference between the two guys is that he
17:14
Speaker 1: puts his hand on the ground, runs down the line
17:16
Speaker 1: of scrimmage and makes plays against the ruck. He is
17:18
Speaker 1: a tremendous football player. And that's the Jaguar's loverage, like
17:22
Speaker 1: we've talked about many times. And now's the lee. Let's
17:24
Speaker 1: go to some ozon the zone. Let's start off with
17:38
Speaker 1: ed from Ponto Vidra. The roster will get thinner by
17:41
Speaker 1: thirty six players Saturday. I do wish well those players
17:44
Speaker 1: that have to empty out their lockers of the thirty six,
17:47
Speaker 1: how many do you think are really borderline versus the
17:49
Speaker 1: ones that you already know will not be a part
17:51
Speaker 1: of the fifty three elite. I think realistically maybe two
17:59
Speaker 1: or three. Um, I think from a public perception there's
18:03
Speaker 1: probably seven or eight. But if if you asked Dave,
18:06
Speaker 1: Tom and Doug who they're gonna keep, they probably realistically
18:10
Speaker 1: no two going in. I don't think anything that happens
18:14
Speaker 1: on on Thursday sways eight spots. But I think there
18:21
Speaker 1: are a lot of guys playing on Thursday for making sure, Hey,
18:27
Speaker 1: you need to keep me, you need to keep me
18:30
Speaker 1: on the practice squad. Uh, I think a lot of
18:33
Speaker 1: Thursday more than who's gonna make that bubble cut on Saturday.
18:39
Speaker 1: Is somebody impressing enough to be the first guy they
18:43
Speaker 1: bring back when there's injuries during the regular season, Uh,
18:46
Speaker 1: to be the first guy called up out the practice squad. Um,
18:50
Speaker 1: those things are the things that make these guys careers
18:54
Speaker 1: and give them a chance to hang around the league
18:55
Speaker 1: and get signed by somebody else. I don't know that
18:58
Speaker 1: there's as many bubble spots as maybe the media and
19:01
Speaker 1: us like to talk about. So the sixth receiver, the
19:05
Speaker 1: third maybe fourth tight end, depending on the number that
19:08
Speaker 1: they want to keep there. Uh, the fifth linebacker right,
19:13
Speaker 1: the tenth defensive back. So I say five, there are
19:16
Speaker 1: five spots with guys. You know you're trying to compress
19:20
Speaker 1: them to say you should keep the extra safety wingered
19:23
Speaker 1: right instead of the fourth tight end, or you should
19:25
Speaker 1: keep the fourth tight end instead of the tenth defensive back.
19:29
Speaker 1: So there's there's maybe five spots on the roster. Um.
19:32
Speaker 1: I don't look at the players in particular, because I'm
19:34
Speaker 1: not sure any of them stand out. Um, it's the
19:39
Speaker 1: spot and I with those five, that's where the Jaguars
19:43
Speaker 1: could go looking for different opportunities. When cutdown day comes
19:47
Speaker 1: and you guy like Giles Harris, I think it's gonna
19:49
Speaker 1: be here in some capacity, Uh, whether he's on your
19:52
Speaker 1: active roster or whether you've gone outside and gotten somebody
19:56
Speaker 1: and put him on the practice squad. He's a great
19:58
Speaker 1: example because if you remember five years ago, they wanted
20:00
Speaker 1: to put Tyler Shatley on the practice squad. They didn't
20:04
Speaker 1: think he was ready to be on the active roster.
20:06
Speaker 1: They had no choice but to put him on the
20:07
Speaker 1: active roster because sin scout's talk word around the league
20:11
Speaker 1: was watched that kid. If he had been cut, he
20:14
Speaker 1: would have been claimed. Someone else would then have control
20:17
Speaker 1: over his rights. They didn't want that. A guy like
20:19
Speaker 1: Joe Giles Harris could be that guy, depending on the
20:22
Speaker 1: need around the league, where they say, look, we'd really
20:24
Speaker 1: like to put him on the practice squad, but we
20:26
Speaker 1: don't want to lose his rights. We think we could
20:28
Speaker 1: go get Remique Wilson or d J Alexander back, but
20:31
Speaker 1: we lose this kid. That happens less at linebacker than
20:36
Speaker 1: it does on the line because the lines are such
20:38
Speaker 1: a but it's a perfect You've got to find out
20:41
Speaker 1: where the where the need around the league is and
20:44
Speaker 1: so much of that those spots is up to special
20:46
Speaker 1: teams as well. Without a doubt, at the bottom of
20:49
Speaker 1: the roster, you have to be able to contribute. All right,
20:51
Speaker 1: let's go to Fort Worth, Texas. J T. John, Do
20:54
Speaker 1: you think Quincy Williams will be a goat for Week one? Yeah?
20:58
Speaker 1: I mean he's back practicing, yes today. Um. Doug was
21:02
Speaker 1: clearly toying with the idea, uh when he spoke to
21:05
Speaker 1: the media of of whether or not to play Quincy
21:08
Speaker 1: on Thursday. So I think in ten days, I think
21:11
Speaker 1: he'll be ready. Um. What we don't know is do
21:14
Speaker 1: they feel comfortable starting him. My anticipation is they will
21:18
Speaker 1: start him with a quick plan b of Hey, if
21:21
Speaker 1: he looks overwhelmed, we'll get nag Good in there. But
21:24
Speaker 1: he's their guy. They think he's the best guy. They
21:26
Speaker 1: think he's going to be very very good. Um. You know,
21:31
Speaker 1: the Kansas City element, as as good as they are offensively,
21:35
Speaker 1: might prompt them to play nag Good in in experienced situation.
21:40
Speaker 1: But Quincy is gonna start very very quickly. He's the guy.
21:43
Speaker 1: If he's playing an opening day that Andy Reid targets
21:46
Speaker 1: the third round kid didn't play in the preseason, so
21:48
Speaker 1: they've got to feel good for what his reps are
21:51
Speaker 1: in the practice field before they put him out there.
21:53
Speaker 1: And I wouldn't play him if I'm Doug Marone, but
21:56
Speaker 1: I would make sure. Doug said something yesterday about making
21:59
Speaker 1: sure these guys have a hard workout on Thursday. Uh,
22:02
Speaker 1: depending on the weather next week, obviously there's a chance
22:04
Speaker 1: that that thing, that storm is coming our way. Um,
22:08
Speaker 1: you know, they've got to make sure that they get
22:09
Speaker 1: enough time with him and that he's intellectually ready for
22:13
Speaker 1: what's coming. In other words, that he's done enough study
22:15
Speaker 1: and that he understands you know, he could Travis Kelsey,
22:18
Speaker 1: who's going to be coming out in the direction and
22:20
Speaker 1: you know, talking about an all pro caliber tight end.
22:22
Speaker 1: So I'm with John, Uh, you throw him out there,
22:26
Speaker 1: and if he's red meat for the lion, you know,
22:28
Speaker 1: you pull the red meat back and you put a
22:30
Speaker 1: veteran guy in there and hopefully you can shored up.
22:32
Speaker 1: I was talking to him yesterday in the locker room.
22:33
Speaker 1: He said that was the first time he's ever been
22:35
Speaker 1: to a hospital and that he's never had surgery before
22:38
Speaker 1: and that it was very nerve racking for him in
22:40
Speaker 1: this locker room, you know, talked him up. But when
22:43
Speaker 1: they said you have to have surgery right now, He's like,
22:45
Speaker 1: whoa right now? But they all explain, you want it
22:48
Speaker 1: right now, you want to get this fixed right now.
22:49
Speaker 1: He's going to become a story, um if he's what
22:52
Speaker 1: we think that he is. But it's it's remarkable to
22:54
Speaker 1: me that you have a second team All Pro Pro
22:58
Speaker 1: Bowl linebacker and Telvin Smith who is not here, who
23:01
Speaker 1: walked away from the game. That was a huge storyline
23:03
Speaker 1: for us back in the spring, and we really haven't
23:06
Speaker 1: talked about him at all because Quincy Williams showed us
23:10
Speaker 1: speed and playmaking ability on the field during O T
23:13
Speaker 1: A s and early in training camp and we said,
23:16
Speaker 1: oh on confidence in him in the building is very
23:18
Speaker 1: very very very very high. But it's still as remarkable
23:21
Speaker 1: that we're not. I mean, I heard somebody yesterday on
23:24
Speaker 1: NFL Network they were talking about where the Jaguars were
23:26
Speaker 1: weak on defensive and now look they don't have Talvin
23:28
Speaker 1: Smith anymore. Well, to people outside the building, that's a
23:32
Speaker 1: that's a huge loss. Telvin Smith was a well known
23:35
Speaker 1: he was on NFL Network all the time he's you know,
23:38
Speaker 1: they're not worried about it. People either Quincy Williams, Murray S.
23:41
Speaker 1: They oh my god, that's a step down. Just wait,
23:42
Speaker 1: you'll combined the addition of Josh Allen slash Quincy Williams
23:46
Speaker 1: more than makes that for the lost Televins and the
23:48
Speaker 1: people in Kansas City. We're talking about Tyreek Hill a
23:50
Speaker 1: few years ago from West Georgia. Right, Everyone's like, what's
23:53
Speaker 1: this kid gonna do? They knew, right, and now we
23:56
Speaker 1: all know it could be the same thing with Williams
23:59
Speaker 1: if he's an impactful on the defensive side of the ball.
24:01
Speaker 1: All right, let's wrap it up with Rick Heyo. It
24:04
Speaker 1: feels like defensive tackle Taven Brian is way undersized physically
24:07
Speaker 1: to play on Jvill's line. Does not feel like he
24:10
Speaker 1: gets any initial push at the snap of the ball.
24:12
Speaker 1: How does he stack up versus other guys up front?
24:15
Speaker 1: From a combined standpoint, I included this not to mock Rick,
24:19
Speaker 1: but that's ridiculous. I knew what's Taven Brian up. Brian
24:25
Speaker 1: is huge. Brian has become such a hot button issue
24:28
Speaker 1: among fans that should look to criticize everything. Um he
24:31
Speaker 1: clearly as falls as a player or or he would
24:34
Speaker 1: be starting a he's he hasn't played well enough to start,
24:39
Speaker 1: but he's definitely going to be on the team and
24:41
Speaker 1: should be on the team. He's definitely one of the
24:42
Speaker 1: best six or seven linement on his team. Undersized physically,
24:45
Speaker 1: my god, that he's kind of a granted line. I
24:47
Speaker 1: mean he's physical, speed, strength, size x whatever of of
24:54
Speaker 1: the things that are holding him back. That ain't it
24:57
Speaker 1: sensational in terms of the combined numbers, in terms of
25:00
Speaker 1: bench press, of is his his three cone drill. All
25:03
Speaker 1: of that was off the charts, which is why the
25:04
Speaker 1: Jaguars felt comfortable. And he's gotten knocked off the ball
25:07
Speaker 1: a couple of times, and I think that's what's causing
25:09
Speaker 1: people the things see that played. Do they see him
25:12
Speaker 1: push the pocket, which he does to His biggest problem
25:15
Speaker 1: isn't below the neck, it's above them. He forgets or
25:19
Speaker 1: doesn't know or lose his track of what he's supposed
25:22
Speaker 1: to do. If you if you're on the sideline. And
25:24
Speaker 1: we were in Miami and the coaches were furious on
25:26
Speaker 1: a couple of different pass rushes because he did the
25:29
Speaker 1: wrong thing right. That's where his issue is. Not Rick
25:32
Speaker 1: go look at the kid. He was built to play
25:34
Speaker 1: the position. There is no strength issue with this kid.
25:37
Speaker 1: It's technique and what he's supposed to do that you
25:41
Speaker 1: hope you can fix. I mean, he is his second
25:44
Speaker 1: year and by the way, they never thought he was
25:46
Speaker 1: going to be All Pro as a rookie or as
25:48
Speaker 1: a second year player. They hope that he would grow
25:50
Speaker 1: into a starter who could replace Molley Jackson by year three.
25:53
Speaker 1: We're not there yet. It's almost a guarantee that Tavin
25:56
Speaker 1: Bryan is in the snapshot for weeks to come. I
25:58
Speaker 1: can feel it now. Yeah, yeah, it makes some place
26:03
Speaker 1: because his first round pick. If he had been picked
26:05
Speaker 1: five picks later at the top of the second he's
26:08
Speaker 1: less of a story. But that's the nature. If he'd
26:10
Speaker 1: been a first round pick twenty years ago, we wouldn't
26:13
Speaker 1: even be talking about him yet, you know what I mean,
26:14
Speaker 1: because first round picks weren't expected to contribute. Then. Not
26:18
Speaker 1: his fault that he wasn't ready to go. They have
26:20
Speaker 1: had a plan for him all along. They'd like him
26:22
Speaker 1: to be further along than he is. They're pushing him
26:24
Speaker 1: to get there. The kid wants to If you talk
26:26
Speaker 1: to him, he wants to now the question is canny
26:29
Speaker 1: and it's all from here up alright, Stay tuned on
26:32

29:02
Speaker 1: Are you guys ready for Frashla so we don't have
29:04
Speaker 1: talk about the seminals anymore. Who are you paying attention
29:08
Speaker 1: to on Thursday? Could be a borderline guy, could be
29:13
Speaker 1: a guy that you need to see make a play
29:15
Speaker 1: to make this team. We talked about that. There's very
29:17
Speaker 1: few spots left for that. But who's the guy you're
29:20
Speaker 1: looking to make an impact Thursday night preseason against the
29:23
Speaker 1: Falcons by Stump John he's a racing he's stressed, let's
29:30
Speaker 1: see it. Brian Josh Walls. He's on the borderline. Uh.
29:35
Speaker 1: He's a guy that John and I talked about last
29:37
Speaker 1: year when Cam Robinson got hurt. Could be playing for
29:40
Speaker 1: a big contract a year ago at this time, well
29:42
Speaker 1: a year ago in October, we thought he was a
29:46
Speaker 1: guy that Jaguars wouldn't be able to afford this year
29:49
Speaker 1: because he was playing well and look to be a
29:52
Speaker 1: guy who was going to get a contract, and now
29:54
Speaker 1: he's a guy with a daughter and another child on
29:57
Speaker 1: the way, who is fighting for maybe the last offensive
30:02
Speaker 1: line spot. Centrical way he comes in here and plays well.
30:05
Speaker 1: He's got the hamstring, but when Wells is right, when
30:08
Speaker 1: he's healthy, uh, he is quality depth at both left
30:12
Speaker 1: and right tackle. So I'm looking for him to get
30:15
Speaker 1: through the game unscathed and for him to play well
30:18
Speaker 1: while he's out there, because I think he's a guy
30:20
Speaker 1: that Doug Marone, who coached him the first couple of
30:23
Speaker 1: years of his his NFL career, would like to have
30:25
Speaker 1: in his his offensive line room. Um, I had a list.
30:29
Speaker 1: I mean, I think Tyvan's gonna play, but he's clearly
30:32
Speaker 1: on their roster. Um and guys like Josh Robinson, uh,
30:39
Speaker 1: wind Guard our guys to watch for the bubble. But
30:42
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Gardner Minshew, Uh, he's on the team.
30:46
Speaker 1: He's gonna be the backup. I'm ncent sure. But they
30:51
Speaker 1: haven't scored with him yet, and he's looked better and
30:54
Speaker 1: better and better. But Doug, when he was talking in
30:57
Speaker 1: the press comments yesterday, so we still need see more
31:00
Speaker 1: from him. And I know some of that motivation, but
31:04
Speaker 1: they also as good as he's looked, there's still some
31:08
Speaker 1: up and down with him. He still needs to play
31:10
Speaker 1: better to give them a good feeling going in the
31:12
Speaker 1: season to back up quarterbacks. I would have liked, and
31:14
Speaker 1: that this is an issue with not playing starters in
31:17
Speaker 1: the preseason. I would have liked to see him with
31:20
Speaker 1: the first offensive line, with the first skill position players
31:23
Speaker 1: and see what he can do. I mean, let's be honest,
31:26
Speaker 1: He's playing behind a different group of linemen nearly every series.
31:30
Speaker 1: They're mixing and match any of the guys he's played with, absolutely,
31:33
Speaker 1: so I don't know that we have, uh the ability
31:35
Speaker 1: to get a good look at him. But you've watched
31:37
Speaker 1: quarterbacks a lot, having seen Peyton, you know what good is,
31:41
Speaker 1: so you know I get it. I understand why you
31:43
Speaker 1: want to see him and to see if he can
31:44
Speaker 1: make some money. He's looking I thought in the last
31:47
Speaker 1: couple of weeks he's looked dramatically better. But again with
31:51
Speaker 1: a rookie, these snaps could be the last he gets
31:56
Speaker 1: in any sort of meaningful time until next August, so
31:59
Speaker 1: they're important absolutely all right, now, John, I know what
32:02
Speaker 1: you're gonna say to this question, because you're gonna say
32:04
Speaker 1: work never makes me sad, But who would you be
32:06
Speaker 1: kind of bombed to see not make this team. I'll
32:10
Speaker 1: get it, get them all out of here, that's fine.
32:13
Speaker 1: I'm just like out. I know that you are deeply
32:19
Speaker 1: emotional and get sad about things like this, so I'm
32:23
Speaker 1: sure you will have a list of guys. I stumped
32:29
Speaker 1: you out again. Yeah, I guess I've been at it
32:32
Speaker 1: long enough to know. You know, they're football players and
32:34
Speaker 1: they come and they go, so you go, and all
32:36
Speaker 1: they would all be sad to I was going to
32:38
Speaker 1: put him. I was going to put him. I'm saying
32:41
Speaker 1: Quentin meeks Um because I don't think he's gonna make
32:45
Speaker 1: the team. Uh. He may be, he may has impressed
32:48
Speaker 1: quite eligibility. I think he's a guy they would bring
32:50
Speaker 1: back quickly if there was an emergency situation at corner.
32:54
Speaker 1: But it, uh, it feels to me like perhaps the
32:57
Speaker 1: lack of speed because him not to be drafted has
33:00
Speaker 1: heard him during this camp. I hate to see it
33:03
Speaker 1: because in talking to him a couple of times last year,
33:05
Speaker 1: very good kid, Uh, very together. He's going to succeed
33:10
Speaker 1: in life no matter what happens in football. But uh,
33:12
Speaker 1: you know, I do think he's probably on the bubble
33:15
Speaker 1: and won't be on the initial roster. Although there's always
33:19
Speaker 1: ten guys like that Brian that you say goodbye to
33:22
Speaker 1: and then they're back and they're around. I think he's
33:24
Speaker 1: gonna be guys around the league for a long time.
33:25
Speaker 1: He played so well in Philadelphia. I'm sorry against Philadelphia
33:29
Speaker 1: in London last year. Once he get him in the game,
33:30
Speaker 1: he makes plays if he's around the ball, so and
33:32
Speaker 1: then he got hurt and then we never really got
33:34
Speaker 1: another chans. I was going to put him and I'll
33:35
Speaker 1: go back to the well, right, I would be sorry.
33:39
Speaker 1: I would be sorry to see him go because I
33:41
Speaker 1: think he's a great guy. Has has dug some roots
33:45
Speaker 1: into the community. As I mentioned, you know, he's got
33:47
Speaker 1: another child on the way he told me was excited about.
33:49
Speaker 1: But I think he's a hell of a football player
33:52
Speaker 1: football player. He might not be a starter, but he's
33:55
Speaker 1: a guy that you want your locker room. He does
33:57
Speaker 1: everything that you ask. He gives you a hundred percent
34:00
Speaker 1: and effort, and he's a good enough player to step
34:02
Speaker 1: in and play to three games left or right. That
34:05
Speaker 1: kind of value I hate to see go. I would.
34:08
Speaker 1: I would hate to see him go. Yeah. After talking
34:10
Speaker 1: to Josh Robinson yesterday, I now am pulling for him.
34:13
Speaker 1: Great guy was talking about how much he appreciates his
34:16
Speaker 1: time being here because he played college football with a
34:18
Speaker 1: j Boys. I hope. So he's really impressive guying you
34:22
Speaker 1: guys haven't talked to him yet. Yeah, good guy, very
34:25
Speaker 1: good special teams player to absolutely all right. Final Ashland
34:28
Speaker 1: ask describe the atmosphere for the home opener next week. Now,
34:34
Speaker 1: we don't want to describe the atmosphere for Thursday because
34:36
Speaker 1: we know it's not going to be the same. But
34:39
Speaker 1: it's crazy to think that next week the Kansas City
34:41
Speaker 1: Chiefs come to town in this stadium. Brian's gonna go
34:45
Speaker 1: with a negative. I don't know, is it negative? You
34:50
Speaker 1: know what? It could be a positive hot. It's going
34:53
Speaker 1: to be smoking hot. One o'clock on. I knew that
34:58
Speaker 1: was coming on the a UM. I remember remember the
35:02
Speaker 1: Steelers coming in. They were coming off the Super Bowl.
35:05
Speaker 1: They were fat and happy they lost the Super Bowl. Uh,
35:08
Speaker 1: you know they had beaten the Jaguars once in that
35:11
Speaker 1: first season. I don't know that they took them all
35:12
Speaker 1: that seriously. And it was so hot that Chad Brown
35:16
Speaker 1: and Levon Kirkland and all those great Steeler defenders were
35:20
Speaker 1: falling down in the third quarter. Um. I think it's
35:24
Speaker 1: gonna be hot, and I think Kansas City is it's
35:26
Speaker 1: unbelievable offense. But I think that the Jaguars and the
35:30
Speaker 1: fans are going to embrace the fact that the thermometer
35:33
Speaker 1: is gonna say a hundred and twenty. They might break
35:35
Speaker 1: it and make it say a hundred and thirty. Right. Um,
35:38
Speaker 1: it is going to be hot, and I think people
35:40
Speaker 1: are gonna be excited. They're gonna be hot. They're gonna stink.
35:44
Speaker 1: Uh you will too when you come off the field.
35:47
Speaker 1: But it is, it's it's gonna be blazing. Sorry about
35:51
Speaker 1: the smoking hot thing. I think that's so much. It's
35:55
Speaker 1: like paths dog. I just um. I think it's gonna
35:59
Speaker 1: be chaos. Uh. And I think the fans are gonna
36:02
Speaker 1: be juiced up for it. I think they're gonna be ready.
36:05
Speaker 1: It's a um. It's a game that will be sold
36:10
Speaker 1: out max capacity all that stuff, And I think the
36:13
Speaker 1: Jaguars defense will add to the chaos because when they
36:18
Speaker 1: played Kansas City last year, I anticipated being one of
36:21
Speaker 1: those games that was just absolute intensity whenever the Jaguars
36:25
Speaker 1: defense was playing the Kansa City offense, and that was
36:28
Speaker 1: surprising that offense and that there were things they weren't
36:31
Speaker 1: prepared for even though they came in hot. I think
36:33
Speaker 1: they had a chance to do that last year until
36:35
Speaker 1: the offense sort of went off the rails, I think
36:37
Speaker 1: was it was turning into that sort of game. They
36:38
Speaker 1: had intercepted Mahomes early. Remember I think twice in that
36:41
Speaker 1: game they intercepted him for right, So there's there's that
36:44
Speaker 1: potential um if they can create that kind of atmosphere confusion, uh,
36:50
Speaker 1: a play into the heat, get him frustrated, wonder what's
36:53
Speaker 1: going on. I think the whole game has a chance
36:57
Speaker 1: to be one of those where people are watching it
36:58
Speaker 1: going what's going on, where you're trying to take notes.
37:00
Speaker 1: You can't keep up with it because I just make
37:03
Speaker 1: Kancity scoring. But it's gonna be a break serve kind
37:05
Speaker 1: of game if they score all of a sudden, the
37:07
Speaker 1: Jaguars get, you know, a pick six kind of game
37:11
Speaker 1: and you're trying to keep up with it. It needs
37:13
Speaker 1: to be chaotic and it's going to be hot. Like me,
37:17
Speaker 1: this is a game where you win the coin toss,
37:20
Speaker 1: you take the ball. I think you take the ball.
37:24
Speaker 1: And you're saying try to set the tempo early and say,
37:29
Speaker 1: we're not scared to put the onus on our offense.
37:31
Speaker 1: We trust our defense. We're going after it. But the
37:34
Speaker 1: day Wars might take the other approach and say, hey,
37:35
Speaker 1: you know what, you think that's your best. We're putting
37:38
Speaker 1: our best on the field. We're gonna stop you coming
37:40
Speaker 1: at you. Who knows where the strategy is, but I'm
37:43
Speaker 1: always take the ball guy, But we'll see either way.
37:47
Speaker 1: It's gonna be fun to be hot, chaotic and fun
37:51
Speaker 1: and you should be here. Is that how isn't that
37:52
Speaker 1: how John's described That's right, hot chaotic, That's great John,
37:56
Speaker 1: the first three words I'm sure everyone thinks of. Well

39:57
Speaker 1: over there. Tweets, tweets, top tweets. All right, let's start
40:07
Speaker 1: off top tweets. That's something that definitely got a lot
40:09
Speaker 1: of attention this week, and that is Matt Overton, long
40:12
Speaker 1: snapper for the Jaguars, obviously played with the Colts before
40:15
Speaker 1: he came here. And we all know the news about
40:17
Speaker 1: Andrew Luck and how season ticket members now want to
40:20
Speaker 1: sell their tickets because Andrew Luck is not playing. He said,
40:23
Speaker 1: to any angry cool season ticket holders you are seeking

40:34
Speaker 1: he represents for my cause, My cleats every year. Is
40:37
Speaker 1: this the only Andrew Luck tweet that you have no
40:40
Speaker 1: well this show, yes, but I've seen plenty right now.
40:43
Speaker 1: I just want to throw I want to throw this
40:44
Speaker 1: out there. Um, it's bad for the NFL. When a
40:49
Speaker 1: young star quarterback walks away, leaving hundreds of millions of
40:53
Speaker 1: dollars in future earnings on the table because he says
40:56
Speaker 1: the injuries have stolen his joy. Gets worse when the
41:00
Speaker 1: all Pro tight end who won three Super Bowls with
41:02
Speaker 1: the Patriots comes out the next day and says, I've
41:04
Speaker 1: lost my joy too. That's not good. Followed this through
41:09
Speaker 1: the off season. Follow this. People are missing this, But
41:13
Speaker 1: I don't think this is good for the NFL. When
41:16
Speaker 1: players are saying that, no especially sends up alarm bells
41:20
Speaker 1: to me. When star players are saying they're in pain,
41:23
Speaker 1: they're suffering, they have no joy. I didn't like the
41:26
Speaker 1: fact that the fans booed. It's another business. I don't care.
41:28
Speaker 1: I had zero problem with the fans booing it. It
41:32
Speaker 1: was a reaction if that had happened in Jackson with
41:35
Speaker 1: the fans. Would that happened anymore when the You know,
41:38
Speaker 1: I understand Andrew leux absolute right to walk away, but
41:42
Speaker 1: to think that fans weren't going to be upset about it.
41:45
Speaker 1: When you sign up for this game and make the
41:47
Speaker 1: kind of money he made and you get booed in
41:49
Speaker 1: that process, you know what yeah, I didn't like it.
41:53
Speaker 1: You like it, I didn't. Whatever, I didn't like it.
41:56
Speaker 1: I think it's part of it. And I don't know.
42:00
Speaker 1: Just dre on the public stage, I know, but to
42:02
Speaker 1: me it yeah, I mean, I guess it. But to
42:04
Speaker 1: me it was too primal. It was not understanding. You know,
42:07
Speaker 1: if if I don't understand anything you said, that not me.
42:11
Speaker 1: I mean on that level, they're not part of it.
42:14
Speaker 1: They don't play the game, so they don't understand when
42:17
Speaker 1: they come here to that. It's a suspension of reality,
42:19
Speaker 1: exactly right. I told entertained that I didn't. I mean,
42:23
Speaker 1: if I'm Andrew Luck, I walk off the field and
42:25
Speaker 1: I just cut my money, you know, one million, two million,
42:28
Speaker 1: I get a hundred million. I'm like I And to
42:33
Speaker 1: clarify what I'm saying, I think most of those fans
42:35
Speaker 1: who booed the next day probably wouldn't have been. But
42:39
Speaker 1: it's a gut reaction. It happens um and when you're
42:43
Speaker 1: in a public forum like that, you're gonna get booed,
42:45
Speaker 1: you're gonna get tweeter, you're gonna get hate mail in
42:48
Speaker 1: the ozone. It's part of it. Fans react to that
42:51
Speaker 1: sort of thing. After a game, I get vilified in
42:54
Speaker 1: the ozone the next day. It's much much different because
42:57
Speaker 1: they're not emotional anymore. Fans are emotional. They've and it
43:01
Speaker 1: also presented a very small number. It's my personal experience
43:05
Speaker 1: with it, but for players it's much much worse. But
43:08
Speaker 1: if you're on the public stage like that, you're gonna
43:10
Speaker 1: get foot in. There's no doubt. Three days later he
43:13
Speaker 1: wouldn't have been There's no doubt. I still don't like it,
43:15
Speaker 1: but there's no doubt. All right, let's go to Leonard
43:17
Speaker 1: fo Net over the summer up in New Orleans. Leonard
43:20
Speaker 1: front has a lot of nieces and nephews. The smallest
43:22
Speaker 1: one just started playing football, and Leonard Frenett's dad actually
43:26
Speaker 1: coaches his nephew's uh pop corner team. So let's take
43:29
Speaker 1: a look at the first time his nephew puts on
43:32
Speaker 1: the pads. Can see the guy in the white little
43:42
Speaker 1: guy very Oh yeah, awesome, And that's Leonard Frenette's dad
43:52
Speaker 1: behind him coaching him up first time he puts on
43:55
Speaker 1: the pads. Yeah, it was just tweeted up by Sports
43:58
Speaker 1: Center before the show aired. There's some genetic material, there's yeah,
44:02
Speaker 1: I think that genetics are working, something to work with
44:04
Speaker 1: and finally, our guy, Tony Boselli had a good day
44:07
Speaker 1: as a father. Yesterday his son Andrew, who plays for
44:10
Speaker 1: F s U football, received a full scholarship at f
44:14
Speaker 1: s U. Capture the moment that he was surprised with it.
44:18
Speaker 1: A guy that I really thought did a good job today.
44:21
Speaker 1: If if folks and one rip at a time, Andrew Boselli,
44:33
Speaker 1: he feels like you. It's probably more excited than when
44:45
Speaker 1: he originally signed with them. But if you wanted to
44:47
Speaker 1: see a celebration, you probably should have seen Biselli jumping
44:50
Speaker 1: up and down. I bet, I bet it's a good
44:51
Speaker 1: day to be a dad. Well it's cool because I
44:54
Speaker 1: don't know the full story. I know Andrew played, he
44:57
Speaker 1: walked away and came back to earn that full schol
45:00
Speaker 1: our ship for him. He showed up in a tryout
45:03
Speaker 1: in the spring right had to find his way back.
45:04
Speaker 1: He could have picked up the phone and said, Hey,
45:05
Speaker 1: it's Andrew Sally at once have a scholarship. Could we
45:08
Speaker 1: talk about this? He didn't. He showed up at an
45:10
Speaker 1: open tryout, which showed a level of humility, and I'm
45:14
Speaker 1: not sure his father has I'm just kidding Tony. Well
45:17
Speaker 1: maybe not, but but it showed commitment and uh, you know,
45:21
Speaker 1: he's a big kid. He was a very highly recruited kid.
45:24
Speaker 1: He's a kid who could probably play on Sundays at
45:27
Speaker 1: some point. He's got his father's I don't know, he's
45:29
Speaker 1: got his father's feed. His father was sensational, but he's
45:31
Speaker 1: got some of that size that his dad had and
45:33
Speaker 1: some nastiness to him. I wish him the best, you know,
45:36
Speaker 1: he's a center. That's an important spot and we maybe
45:39
Speaker 1: may end up starting at some point for Sue this year.
45:41
Speaker 1: So I'm not coming out of pocket. Oh man, I'm
45:45
Speaker 1: writing that check now, I know. Yeah, and it didn't
45:48
Speaker 1: know fun. Good for Tony, like my son to go
45:51
Speaker 1: get a scholarship somewhere. I hope he's watching your son.
45:53
Speaker 1: He's probably not strapped on the path. He's at ten o'clock.
45:56
Speaker 1: Class isn't for till eleven. For him, he's not even awake,
45:59
Speaker 1: all right. Stay tuned for tomorrow's show. Game Day Jaguars
46:02
Speaker 1: versus Falcons preseason game four will be here tomorrow at
46:06
Speaker 1: nine o'clock on Jaguars Drive Time.
