  Speaker 1: Of years ago in your series, We're not gonna go there,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: but uh, you know, I mean just having his energy
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: back in the building is fun. You know, he's always
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: a great leader, great big brother. You know, not only
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: to meet, but a lot of guys in this in
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: this building, and just how he carries himself. He's just
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: you know, a pro through and through just you know,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: how he handles himself on and off the field.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: So just happy to have him back. He's competitive with
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: the defensive backs.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: That's the good battles with like Jackson, what what we've
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: seen out of him going back to last.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: Year or a certain.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Job and then to the players, right, I mean, he
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: just picked up from where he left off last season.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: Uh, he he's been here all all season, so throughout
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: OTA's mini camp and whenever I popped up, uh you
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: know here and went against him in practice, it was
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: always just a battle for me. And he's always made
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: it tough for me to not only just get off
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage, but you know at the catch point,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: he's always battling, trying to knock the ball out at
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: the last second. So just somebody that I can go
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: against who's gonna be physical and and competitive with me
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: at the same time, who who's also a pro and
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: knows how to play the game.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: You got your couples.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: Uh, He's just a very smart and instinctive player. So
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: uh you know, I I love what Pete's uh got
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: in him, you know as a football player. But you
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: know he's been taught by you know, uh Case Scott
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: and Kwandre and uh uh heavily uh you know, leadership role,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: uh defensive back uh room over there. So you know,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: was just happy to see him, uh you know out
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: there on the field and just going against me and
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: and Tyler. So he's gonna get the best reps.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: Again. It's sad last year getting from the coverage job
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: out in the starter, he didn't get about him whether.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Him uh no, I mean Gino has been the same person,
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: uh even when he you know, was a back up
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: to the starter. So I mean the only thing is
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: he's just he got a bigger voice, so uh he's
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: using it the right way and you know, we're leaning
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: on him and and count on him to continue to
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: be that voice and that leader.
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: Uh you know at the quarterback position.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I think he's gonna do uh wag ten times better
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: than uh last year, cause you know he's got the
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: the rains loosened up on him.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: So it's just gonna be fun to watch from death
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: push so far.
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, I just see him always trying to learn
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: from Bobby, and he's always in Bobby's hip pocket. Uh
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: you know, whether that's out here on the field or
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: even inside the uh inside the facility facility. So you know,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: we came out together. So just happy to that he's
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: on you know, my team now and not the other team.
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: So uh, he's he's gonna be uh you know, a
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: player to watch out for it too.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: He uh, he doesn't have how can I put this?
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: He's not worried about, you know, being perfect out there,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: so he can you know, go out there and play freely.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: What right, just how to be a professional on and
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: off the field. Not only when you're out there practice,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: but you know people are watching you, whether you know
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: you're you're here early or you know you're staying late
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: to watch film or how however you carry yourself, uh,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: you know when things aren't going well, So just how
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: to be a professional, uh you know.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: A at all times? Did he kind of take you said?
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, he introduced it, and you know it
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: was just up to me to whether if I was
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: gonna follow him or not, and you know I chose to.
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: Was it nice to? Oh? Yeah?
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Uh it was fun to you know, just run in
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: to uh for us to get to hit each other
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: and you know, for the defense to finally stop him
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: playing about. You know that's a sack, but that's not
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: a sack. So uh, I mean it's just fun just
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: just to finally run into somebody. And I'm not get
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: in trouble for it.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: But he with with Devin, he's had to appreciate this
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: fire out. He's you know, just ring around you see
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: that from the corner back to kind of Devin Bush. Witherspoon.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, man, I love it.
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: You know, a guy that's gonna go out there and compete,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: you know, not's gonna he's not gonna back down from
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: a challenge.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: I know.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: You know, Kobe tried to run into him and then
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: you know he bowed up and and tapleed him, so,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: uh it was just fun to watch, uh how competitive
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: he is. And I think, you know, when once we
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: get Jamal back out there, you know, both of their
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: energy and their fire is gonna you know, spark the
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: old defense up.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: So it's gonna be fun. Uh No, serg.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: Just being a better teammate and just you know, that's it.
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: Just being a better teammate. I think all the rest
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: of the uh, you know, my goals and aspirations and
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: dreams are gonna gonna fall into place if if I
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: just uh focus on that, just always being accountable and
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: just being present, uh in the moment and not trying
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: to you know, think ahead or or think try to
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: jump to Sunday on a Monday or Tuesday. Just being
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: present and just take every rep series.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: Uh. I think that's a shame question place
