- 0:30Speaker 1: of the most eventful newsweeks in Jacksonville in a long time.
- 0:33Speaker 1: Confederate monuments are coming down in the city and updated
- 0:37Speaker 1: human rights ordinance was passed by the Jacksonville City Council,
- 0:41Speaker 1: and the city later in the week won the bid
- 0:43Speaker 1: for the major parts of the Republican National Convention in August,
- 0:47Speaker 1: a little over two months away. The Jaguars have been
- 0:50Speaker 1: a part of that news cycle again this week, but
- 0:54Speaker 1: it started really last Friday. During a speech on the
- 0:56Speaker 1: Jacksonville Sheriff's Office steps wide, receiver Chris only mentioned the
- 1:00Speaker 1: Confederate monument in Hemming Plaza downtown and in the wee
- 1:04Speaker 1: hours of Tuesday morning, the statue at the top was
- 1:07Speaker 1: removed by city workers only hours before Leonard for Nette
- 1:11Speaker 1: was to lead a march through downtown with Mayor Lenny Curry,
- 1:14Speaker 1: Sheriff Mike Williams, and comedian Little Duvall. Here's how it
- 1:18Speaker 1: sounded at the start, with for Net addressing the crowd
- 1:21Speaker 1: of several hundred from the city Hall steps. I appreciate

- 1:28Speaker 1: do matter. I want you to understand that they do matter.

- 2:06Speaker 1: a big step for all of us. You know. I'm
- 2:09Speaker 1: happy to see blacks and whites out here together, you know,
- 2:12Speaker 1: doing this. This is a This is a wonderful thing
- 2:15Speaker 1: and the biggest thing I didn't grow up, you know,

- 3:26Speaker 1: After for that, Mayor Curry made some remarks, and though
- 3:29Speaker 1: he paused to listen to protesters, who a few times
- 3:32Speaker 1: drowned him out, Curry made promises for the future. I
- 3:35Speaker 1: want to thank Leonard for putting this together. Um. There's
- 3:38Speaker 1: been a lot of walks, there's been a lot of
- 3:40Speaker 1: voices protests over the last few weeks. And I and

- 4:06Speaker 1: work to come. But yesterday there was a Confederate monument
- 4:11Speaker 1: in Arc. It's gone, and the others in this city
- 4:20Speaker 1: will be removed as well. We hear your voices. We
- 4:31Speaker 1: have heard your voices. Number of issues, body cams, economic opportunity, infrastructure,

- 5:10Speaker 1: I understand the anger of frustration. Okay, I hear you,
- 5:13Speaker 1: and I'm gonna walk with you. We walk here with
- 5:15Speaker 1: Leonard for nett Um you need everybody at the table
- 5:20Speaker 1: that can make these decisions. Your voices need to be heard,
- 5:23Speaker 1: but then decisions need to be made by the people
- 5:25Speaker 1: that can. I'm gonna introduce legislation that formally brings together
- 5:30Speaker 1: the Sheriff's office, the state attorneys, the public defender, the
- 5:33Speaker 1: city Council, my office, with independent voices from community as
- 5:38Speaker 1: a part of that that will be hurt to help decisions.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Thank you, look forward to walking with you. Williams and
- 5:46Speaker 1: Little Duval spoke as well, and then the group marched
- 5:48Speaker 1: through downtown Jacksonville together. After the March for Net answered
- 5:52Speaker 1: some media questions about the events impact got the community
- 5:57Speaker 1: behind us. Also maya the players a couple of codes.
- 6:01Speaker 1: I in too, and Uh, it's a big thing, man.
- 6:03Speaker 1: I'm glad to be a part of this. I'm glad
- 6:04Speaker 1: I could be one of the first people to bring
- 6:06Speaker 1: one of the piece of protests to the city. You
- 6:08Speaker 1: mean you're talking about putting legislation in place to hip
- 6:11Speaker 1: with this movement? Is that enough? Uh? We we we've
- 6:14Speaker 1: been talking about it could be more of the you
- 6:15Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like as time going, we're gonna
- 6:17Speaker 1: talk more and more about it. But you see you
- 6:19Speaker 1: gotta start with the little steps, ought to take the
- 6:21Speaker 1: big steps. Right now he's taking all those down. That's
- 6:23Speaker 1: a that's a that's a wonderful start. You gotta keep going.
- 6:25Speaker 1: Where do we grow from here? Right now? Man, I
- 6:28Speaker 1: want people open up their ears and their heart and
- 6:30Speaker 1: just listen and understand. Right now it's not about listening
- 6:32Speaker 1: to understandably timeline on this action, but we're talking about
- 6:37Speaker 1: keeping this movement. It's it's very important right now as
- 6:41Speaker 1: you see all this is not my city, you know,
- 6:42Speaker 1: just a little doo bar city, and we need guys
- 6:44Speaker 1: like him to come out supporting on city, which has
- 6:46Speaker 1: been doing for years. And um, I think one by
- 6:49Speaker 1: one everything's coming together. Good for format using your celebrity
- 6:52Speaker 1: in this city not only to create conversation, but bring
- 6:56Speaker 1: city leadership to the event as well. Later in the week,
- 7:00Speaker 1: has promised in the op ed piece that he wrote,
- 7:02Speaker 1: Jaguars owners Shot con met with the Jaguars team over
- 7:06Speaker 1: a zoom video conference and they gathered ideas and discussed
- 7:09Speaker 1: plans moving ahead. Head coach Doug Marone, in a media
- 7:13Speaker 1: conference Friday, explained what came out of that Wednesday meeting.
- 7:16Speaker 1: We all know our owner's track record and how you
- 7:21Speaker 1: know he's been with our players, and I think that
- 7:23Speaker 1: you know, he's been able to meet with players in
- 7:25Speaker 1: the past individually, and he's been around the team quite
- 7:29Speaker 1: a bit. I would say, you know, more so in
- 7:32Speaker 1: two thousand, you know, last year, two dolls nineteen and
- 7:35Speaker 1: now than than at least at least in my past.
- 7:38Speaker 1: And you know, I think it's you know, we appreciate that,
- 7:41Speaker 1: we understand that, you know, he has a lot of
- 7:43Speaker 1: things going on, not just you know, not just Jacksonville,
- 7:46Speaker 1: but he has made it a priority for himself, you know,
- 7:49Speaker 1: to really get a feeling understanding. I think that you know,
- 7:53Speaker 1: him taking part in that meeting is is really really
- 7:56Speaker 1: part of the course of what how he's done and
- 8:00Speaker 1: that he's done in the past, you know, and he's
- 8:02Speaker 1: a person that's going to come in. There was a
- 8:04Speaker 1: lot of thought with the players platform and assistant coaches platform. Um,
- 8:10Speaker 1: obviously I have access to him quite a bit, but
- 8:13Speaker 1: I wanted to make sure the players that that didn't
- 8:15Speaker 1: have that that same type of access were able to
- 8:18Speaker 1: get it. I thought, you know, there was a great conversations.
- 8:21Speaker 1: There were you know, things that came up that you
- 8:25Speaker 1: know we're working on I want to see where it goes. First,
- 8:28Speaker 1: we have a couple of action plans set in place. Um,
- 8:32Speaker 1: you know, we have projects to do. I told the team,
- 8:36Speaker 1: you know, really, you know, one of my you know,
- 8:40Speaker 1: I told him what my expectations were, you know, from
- 8:43Speaker 1: from when you know that meeting ended yesterday with a
- 8:45Speaker 1: vetter players, and I told him, you know, a number
- 8:48Speaker 1: one priority is that we you know, sustained you know,
- 8:53Speaker 1: ourselves in this movement. So I talked to Marcus Pollard.
- 8:57Speaker 1: You know, we're building some things into our schedule over
- 9:00Speaker 1: the summer. We'll be able to have these discussions. I
- 9:03Speaker 1: didn't want to stop them, and then all of a
- 9:05Speaker 1: sudden they start, you know, when we report, I think
- 9:08Speaker 1: this needs to be ongoing, and I think we need
- 9:11Speaker 1: to be progressing, uh, you know, until we always come
- 9:14Speaker 1: back and then I think when we actually start, I'm
- 9:17Speaker 1: actually looking at ways too. Um. And I told the
- 9:20Speaker 1: player is to put things in our schedule, you know,
- 9:23Speaker 1: where it's not at the end of the day, where
- 9:25Speaker 1: it's you know, everybody's tired and everyone's beat up a
- 9:28Speaker 1: little bit, and it's voluntary. I'm trying to build some
- 9:32Speaker 1: time during the day where you know we're gonna be
- 9:34Speaker 1: able to discuss these things because you know, I don't
- 9:37Speaker 1: think that this is um you know, something from an
- 9:41Speaker 1: adversity standpoint that that may. I mean, you know, we have,
- 9:45Speaker 1: you know, an election year coming on. I think there's
- 9:47Speaker 1: gonna be a lot going on and I want to
- 9:49Speaker 1: make sure that you know, we as a team have
- 9:52Speaker 1: the forum where it's open, where people can express their
- 9:58Speaker 1: feelings or who have they feel and you know we
- 10:02Speaker 1: can listen and be able to support them. I think
- 10:04Speaker 1: those are my expectations are so I think you'll see
- 10:07Speaker 1: things down the road, mark things that are going to
- 10:10Speaker 1: come out. Right now, we're in the stages of really
- 10:14Speaker 1: um ideas we've had, We've taken those ideas, we put
- 10:18Speaker 1: them into action plans, and now those action plans actually,
- 10:22Speaker 1: you know, since that meeting have started, and I think
- 10:26Speaker 1: when they get to a point where we're able to say, hey,
- 10:28Speaker 1: this is what you know we're doing and we feel
- 10:30Speaker 1: that we can make change in those areas, I think
- 10:33Speaker 1: those things will come out, and I know they'll come out.

- 11:27Speaker 1: Broadcast Week and Review podcast presented by t I a
- 11:30Speaker 1: A Bank. Time to talk football or trying to get
- 11:33Speaker 1: back to football. At some point, there will be no
- 11:37Speaker 1: on field work in this offseason program, and the NFL
- 11:40Speaker 1: announced this week that the virtual program can be extended
- 11:42Speaker 1: by a couple of weeks. Many teams could shut it
- 11:45Speaker 1: down as early as today Friday, June twelve. Also earlier
- 11:50Speaker 1: this week, the league sent to teams some guidelines for
- 11:52Speaker 1: training camps that are scheduled to start in late July.
- 11:55Speaker 1: The memo included protocols for access to facilities, distancing and
- 12:00Speaker 1: locker rooms, and other team areas. It's quite a task,
- 12:03Speaker 1: of course, and one that might not matter. Remember for
- 12:06Speaker 1: competitive balance reasons. If one team in the league is
- 12:08Speaker 1: not allowed to open training camp in their local area,
- 12:12Speaker 1: then no team will. Only time will tell how that goes,
- 12:15Speaker 1: of course, But as Ashlan Sullivan, John Osan, and Brian
- 12:18Speaker 1: Sexton discussed on Jack's Drive Time Tuesday morning, there comes
- 12:21Speaker 1: a point where football has to happen to have football.
- 12:25Speaker 1: I just saw on Twitter Judi Patissa tweeting out that
- 12:28Speaker 1: as of this week, NFL teams are gonna work on
- 12:30Speaker 1: keeping their locker rooms six ft apart, start spreading out lockers,
- 12:34Speaker 1: getting organized for players to come back. Jaguars should be
- 12:37Speaker 1: able to do that with four locker rooms. But I
- 12:39Speaker 1: can't help but go back to when we played the
- 12:41Speaker 1: Bills in Buffalo. I don't know how that place is
- 12:44Speaker 1: going to make that happen. I'm sure teams are going
- 12:47Speaker 1: to figure out a way to get the easy things done.
- 12:52Speaker 1: I'm as saying locker room is gonna be easy. But
- 12:53Speaker 1: to get the off field things done, All of this
- 12:57Speaker 1: can be done off the field. You can keep guys
- 13:00Speaker 1: apart off the field, you can keep the tears apart.
- 13:03Speaker 1: But Ryan, I know we've talked about this before, what
- 13:06Speaker 1: happens when they go on the field is gonna be
- 13:09Speaker 1: a million dollar question, because that is going to look
- 13:11Speaker 1: all of a sudden, very congested out there. A friend
- 13:15Speaker 1: of both of ours once said this when we were
- 13:19Speaker 1: having lunch at the training table, and it's stuck with
- 13:21Speaker 1: me for years, and that is that football is a
- 13:24Speaker 1: game of human confrontation, and what we're seeing now is
- 13:28Speaker 1: trying to remove human confrontation from society, right I mean
- 13:33Speaker 1: not because they don't want people to be around each other,
- 13:35Speaker 1: but because right now they don't. So you're trying to
- 13:38Speaker 1: take away the most critical part of the game and
- 13:40Speaker 1: you can't do it. You just can't. The Jaguars in
- 13:44Speaker 1: the NFL will finish the season if the COVID nineteen
- 13:49Speaker 1: doesn't have a second wave. But if there's a second wave,
- 13:54Speaker 1: I don't know how you can keep it from spreading.
- 13:56Speaker 1: Not in a game like football. You can have tears,
- 13:58Speaker 1: and you can haves, and you can put people in
- 14:02Speaker 1: isolation and quarantine. And but if this thing does what
- 14:04Speaker 1: this thing does, then I don't know how you play football.
- 14:07Speaker 1: But they're gonna try because they don't know if there's
- 14:09Speaker 1: going to be a second wave, and I support that
- 14:11Speaker 1: try go and try and do all the things that
- 14:14Speaker 1: you can do. But John, it's a game of human confrontation,
- 14:18Speaker 1: and when you confront another human being, you get the
- 14:20Speaker 1: good and the bad, sometimes the bad ist germs, you
- 14:23Speaker 1: get the idea that as interesting and as strange as
- 14:28Speaker 1: the off season his van hold On type hold on,
- 14:31Speaker 1: it's going to be an interesting right catch Jags drivetime
- 14:34Speaker 1: each Tuesday morning on the Jaguars social channels now to
- 14:38Speaker 1: actual exes and Oh's football defensive coordinator Todd Wash met
- 14:43Speaker 1: with the media Friday morning, and there's been plenty of
- 14:46Speaker 1: talk about the Jags defense possibly moving to a three
- 14:49Speaker 1: four scheme or using more three four principles. At least
- 14:53Speaker 1: Wash has always said it's a four three defense for
- 14:55Speaker 1: the Jags, and Mike the Rocco of ESPN had the question,
- 14:58Speaker 1: we're all just kind of making a big deal out
- 15:01Speaker 1: of nothing with the three four four three stuff? Is
- 15:04Speaker 1: that kind of that would be a core dement. So
- 15:08Speaker 1: so why why are we making a big deal of it?
- 15:11Speaker 1: You know, Dave said some stuff, you know, gonna do
- 15:14Speaker 1: some more fourth three four looks, and Doug said the
- 15:17Speaker 1: same thing. So why are we blowing it out of proportion?
- 15:19Speaker 1: Give me your theory there? I think because of the way,
- 15:24Speaker 1: um that we're built. You know obviously, um, how we drafted,
- 15:30Speaker 1: you know, with Casey and stuff like that. You know,
- 15:32Speaker 1: everybody sees him as an outside linebacker. We have not
- 15:36Speaker 1: installed a different front then we've had in the past
- 15:40Speaker 1: in our system in the last two years. So it's
- 15:43Speaker 1: just guys playing different spots, changing some alignments. Um, But
- 15:47Speaker 1: the overall structure of you're gonna see the the outside
- 15:52Speaker 1: linebacker on the line of scrimmage more because that's the
- 15:55Speaker 1: skill set of the guys that we had. Everybody's saying
- 15:58Speaker 1: at three four. But if you look at our him
- 16:00Speaker 1: in the last two years, but we've had three different
- 16:03Speaker 1: front families based out of a three four, But nobody
- 16:06Speaker 1: considered us a three four, um because we ran so
- 16:09Speaker 1: much overfront. Um, you might not see as much overfront
- 16:13Speaker 1: out of us now because of the makeup of our
- 16:15Speaker 1: our personnel and uh, you know, so everybody will say
- 16:19Speaker 1: about year three four, we're just a fifty front and
- 16:22Speaker 1: we're based out of under. Part of the changes on
- 16:25Speaker 1: defense this year will be at linebacker. Joe Shoulburn is
- 16:28Speaker 1: now in the mix. He's the middle linebacker, and Miles
- 16:31Speaker 1: Jack moves to the week side. I asked Wash how
- 16:34Speaker 1: that transition has gone for both That adjustment on your
- 16:37Speaker 1: defense is a big deal. How's it been so far?
- 16:40Speaker 1: You know, obviously I've had conversations, uh with Scholbert and
- 16:43Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. You know, he will be the
- 16:45Speaker 1: mic linebacker. Um, he's doing a really good job. The
- 16:47Speaker 1: biggest transition, especially with these vets that you know, transition
- 16:51Speaker 1: to a different team, it's more verbiage than anything. Um,
- 16:55Speaker 1: you know, for them understanding what we call things, how
- 16:58Speaker 1: we adjust the things is the biggest adjustment. But uh,
- 17:02Speaker 1: he's doing a great job with that. There already has
- 17:05Speaker 1: a really good relationship with Miles. Obviously, my relationship with Miles.
- 17:09Speaker 1: I talked to Miles a little bit more than children
- 17:11Speaker 1: right now just because of the relationship in the past. Um,
- 17:14Speaker 1: but he's Miles is bragging about him his leadership, Um,
- 17:18Speaker 1: how intelligent he is, um, And uh, you know we're obviously,
- 17:23Speaker 1: you know, we look forward to him playing in my
- 17:25Speaker 1: linebacker spot the will. You know, I've I've talked to Miles,
- 17:28Speaker 1: Um he feels very comfortable. Um over there, I think
- 17:32Speaker 1: he feels a little bit more comfortable instead of making
- 17:36Speaker 1: the calls, he's being able to listen. You know. He's
- 17:39Speaker 1: had a little smart Alec comment that I Shoulberg slow,
- 17:41Speaker 1: I'll have to go back and do it again, and
- 17:43Speaker 1: I said, well, we'll we'll deal with that later. But uh,
- 17:46Speaker 1: you know, I really look forward for him being at
- 17:49Speaker 1: the whale spot where uh you know, that's a really
- 17:51Speaker 1: a great playmaking position. You know, Telling did a great
- 17:55Speaker 1: job of that in the past. Um and now obviously
- 17:58Speaker 1: we think Miles is gonna be a great a linebacker.
- 18:00Speaker 1: Also always going to talk ball with defensive coordinator Todd Wash.
- 18:04Speaker 1: We are almost to what we called the dead period
- 18:07Speaker 1: of the off season, so football news might not be
