  Speaker 3: Rookie camp this week, just a lot of excitement with
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: the with the new team. And this is really what,
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: uh what kicks it all off.
• 1:49
  Speaker 6: The opportunity here obviously just dreaming in the NFL, right,
• 1:52
  Speaker 6: but to join the Super.
• 1:52
  Speaker 3: Bowl champs, the team that loves through. How special this
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: specific opportunity here to Seattle. Yeah, I'm just blessed to
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: be here.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: It's Seattle and part of a winning program, winning culture,
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: and you know, just coming into a locker room and
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: being able to compete and uh, you know, coming from
• 2:10
  Speaker 4: a culture like Notre Dame and you're being taught so
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: many things, and the habits I created they'll translate to
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: this NFL level, so that I helped. But you know,
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: I'm just I'm just blessed to be in this position
• 2:21
  Speaker 4: that I am.
• 2:22
  Speaker 6: John joked about Jadarion Price Day, but there actually is
• 2:24
  Speaker 6: a Jadarion Price Day and Dennison, is that right?
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: That's true?
• 2:29
  Speaker 6: January? How did that come about? Did you expect to
• 2:31
  Speaker 6: have a day named after yourself?
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: So so the mayor of my town he called me
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: like a week before and he was like, Hey, we're
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: trying to figure out when we're gonna get you a
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: day for you and I'm like, I don't think I
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: need a day, Like it's not that serious. But everyone
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: was all like, nah, you need a day. So uh,
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: it was a random Tuesday during combine prep. I drove
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: down from Dallas down to my hometown and they did
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: the little ceremony and it was cool. Took some pictures
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: and I got a little plaque. So that's nice.
• 3:02
  Speaker 6: Year over year seeing.
• 3:03
  Speaker 7: Rookie classes kind of these early days kind.
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: Of form whatever gonna form. And yeah, that's a great point.
• 3:09
  Speaker 5: We had such a great rookie class last year. You know,
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: that's on record for really how the you know, one
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: of the catalysts for the team coming together, So to
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: start that process over again, and uh, just I'm just fire.
• 3:23
  Speaker 5: I'm fire up to meet the guys, you know, see
• 3:24
  Speaker 5: how they get along. But it's gonna take on like
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: a new life form of itself. And so I think
• 3:30
  Speaker 5: one of the things that we do here that's kind
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: of cool is we we we don't force it. You know,
• 3:34
  Speaker 5: we let them give us mayor to breathe sort of,
• 3:37
  Speaker 5: to figure out their own journey and how that messes
• 3:39
  Speaker 5: with the vets and uh, that's why we go through
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: the whole process, you know.
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: So but that's that's what makes us so exciting because
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: you don't know what's gonna happen.
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: You don't know how it's gonna come together, but somehow
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: it'll it'll come together one way or another.
• 3:52
  Speaker 8: What is Dennis in Texas?
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: Like, what was it like growing up there?
• 3:55
  Speaker 8: And how do you feel like it shaped you?
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Dennison is very It's a it's a big football town.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: Not many people notice, but it's the longest running rivalry
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: between our rivals Sherman Texas and all of the state
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: of Texas. So yeah, just being a part of that program.
• 4:13
  Speaker 4: And and I don't know how much you know about
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: high school football, but they put a lot of money
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: and effort into, you know, getting guys to the next level.
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: So I had a great support system, have a huge family,
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: extended family and friends and coaches who you know supported
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: me and got me to where I am today.
• 4:30
  Speaker 7: What was your like when you had the achilles injury
• 4:31
  Speaker 7: and kind of had to miss a lot of that
• 4:33
  Speaker 7: and I guess how did you kind of go from that?
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah?
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: Early enrolled to Notre Dame and that spring I had
• 4:39
  Speaker 4: a great uh spring ball was was battling for the
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: starting job actually, and then unfortunately I tore my achilles
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: that summer and OTAs and just had to figure out
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: to find a new passion outside of football, you know,
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: even though I wasn't in the in the on the
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: field as much, and I just started lifting ways more.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: I got bigger, towing up my friends, and then once
• 5:01
  Speaker 4: I got on the field and got healthy. You know,
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: haven't come back since you mentioned.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: The zoom call that you had with Thomas Hammock and
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: what specifically stood out from that interview how you guys
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: were able to connect her to hit off and how
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: much of the fact that he coached against you, how
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: much did that help in that standpoint? Because he has
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: an extra special Uh.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: He didn't stop letting them know. I mean, we're like,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: all right, we get it, you guys. You guys beat
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: there to day, Right, we get it.
• 5:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, on that point. All all three times that I've
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: met with with coach he is, he has mentioned that
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: that game, and he hits me with the if I
• 5:40
  Speaker 4: was coaching you, I would have and you ran the
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: ball a little bit more, maybe I would.
• 5:43
  Speaker 3: Have beat us. So but that's in the past.
• 5:46
  Speaker 4: You live and you learn, you know. But No, he's
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: a he's a great coach, and I'm excited to play
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: for him.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: What inspiration you get from you?
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I get a lot a lot of support from
• 5:59
  Speaker 4: my mom. You know, single mother most of her life
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: and raised three kids at a young age. Obviously she
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: she overcame breast cancer when I was pretty young, so
• 6:10
  Speaker 4: I had to mature and take care of my younger sisters.
• 6:12
  Speaker 4: But watching her go through that, the chemotherapy, the all that,
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: and and still overcoming that, I feel like I can
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: overcome anything. Like you mentioned earlier, the Achilles injury, Like
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: there's nothing that can set me back that I can't overcome.
• 6:24
  Speaker 7: You know what, what's the last week been like for you?
• 6:27
  Speaker 7: Just kind of settling into what's next for you, kind
• 6:30
  Speaker 7: of having people reach out to you, anyone in particular,
• 6:32
  Speaker 7: reach out of notes that you kind of got took
• 6:35
  Speaker 7: taken back by any teammates or.
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: Anything like that.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was really nice hearing from some of the teammates.
• 6:43
  Speaker 4: You know, I know some of these guys got so
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: much going on and they got their own off season
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: program to worry about, but to reach out to me
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: and and you know, with open arms, like got any
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: questions things like that, Guys like Cooper Cup I think
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: of off the bat, like, you know, I really pre
• 7:00
  Speaker 4: shate that. And that just goes to show, you know,
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: I'm coming into a you know, a winning culture. So
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: I'm excited.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: I hope you.
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: Guys that want to prove themselves and they want to
• 7:08
  Speaker 3: make an impression.
• 7:09
  Speaker 8: But what do you want them to take out of
• 7:12
  Speaker 8: rookie mini camp. What's reasonable?
• 7:13
  Speaker 5: Well, it's it's multi fascinated. I mean with the guys
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: that we know they're gonna be here, we definitely want
• 7:19
  Speaker 5: them to. It's an introduction to how we do things
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: here in Seattle, and such a great opportunity to see
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: some of these some of the trial guys as well.
• 7:26
  Speaker 5: And we've there, you know, we have a pretty good
• 7:28
  Speaker 5: history of you know, to find some of the.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Some of the some of these players.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: And when you talk about being you know, seventy you know,
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: ninety one hundred and five people deep, like that's it's
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: going to be needed, you know, whether whether we want
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: them to stick with us right now or you know,
• 7:43
  Speaker 5: being the bullpen so to speak, where that they're one
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: of the first guys we call. So I think guys
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: like Jamie Sheriff and you know that are still with
• 7:51
  Speaker 5: us now. So yeah, it's this is a great weekend.
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: You know, he's finally back on the grass.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: Uh. Yeah, there's a lot a lot of things to
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: be fired up for.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: Your running backs.
• 8:01
  Speaker 7: Coach told me outside zone is your love language. I
• 8:05
  Speaker 7: think we maybe wish just for you they would have
• 8:07
  Speaker 7: run more a Notre Dame.
• 8:08
  Speaker 8: What about outside zone?
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: Do you like what what it fits to your house? Yeah?
• 8:13
  Speaker 4: I like the options that gives me as a runner,
• 8:17
  Speaker 4: you know, just being able to stretch the defense and
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: puncture as they say, and just allow the the linemen
• 8:22
  Speaker 4: to do what they do and get up to the
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: second level and the double teams.
• 8:25
  Speaker 3: I really like to see it develop.
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: And I I'm pretty good at keeping my my shoulders
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: square once I get to the line of scrimmage. So
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: I love all the run places. But it just happens
• 8:35
  Speaker 4: to be, you know, at Notre Dame and we did
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: a lot of a little mixture of mid zone and
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: outside zone.
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: And that just was what I was pretty good at.
• 8:43
  Speaker 7: So, Mike John, did you have to project him into
• 8:46
  Speaker 7: your outside zone system? Did J you see enough.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: In Notre Dame and see that fit.
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: You see y? I S mean, I don't know.
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: You just I've seen him run a lot of different runs,
• 8:58
  Speaker 5: but you're not really I'm not looking at it through
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: the lens of like he's run this scheme X amount
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: of times or anything like that.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: You just you see the movement, you know, the person,
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: the competitor. You know, that's where our coaches talked about.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: So yeah, when you talk about punk, when he talks
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: about puncturing it, I mean you cu you could tell
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: you know, the patients. Uh, you could tell him like
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: you know, staying on track and then his cup back abilities,
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: you know in our My opinion was like clearly the
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: best in the draft.
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: Ya, how do you just your a whole running back course?
• 9:31
  Speaker 6: Seems like you got some different styles there with him
• 9:33
  Speaker 6: and Stari and Emanual.
• 9:35
  Speaker 7: Maybe being a bigger guy and stuff like that.
• 9:36
  Speaker 3: How do you just kind of assess that whole group
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: right now?
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're excited, We're excited about it. It's a it's
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: a it's a cool group to work with. And mm
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: M Thomas is, you know, excited to be working with
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: these guys. And we're we're we're glad that Thomas is
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: with us.
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: Well, you've got some time to decide. But uh, rookie
• 9:51
  Speaker 6: talent show. Uh any talents you wanna let us know
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: might be coming down the pipe.
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: In my free time, I'll be thinking about things and
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: and practicing.
• 10:01
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: I like that you said, like you're in one of
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: your as soon as you're like, I mean, I I
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: like music. I just can't play music. Oh yeah I.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: Wish I could.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 10:12
  Speaker 4: I actually took a couple of music classes that nore Dame.
• 10:15
  Speaker 8: But jarn, what are some of the the habits you
• 10:18
  Speaker 8: alluded to earlier that you said you built up that
• 10:20
  Speaker 8: Notre Dame that you think will help you have success
• 10:22
  Speaker 8: in the NFL.
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: Just carrying yourself as a professional. You know, I'm not
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: in college anymore, but at Notre Dame you had to.
• 10:30
  Speaker 4: You had a rigorous, like athletics schedule, but also academic schedule,
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: so you always had to be on time, take care
• 10:36
  Speaker 4: of your stuff, but also taking care of your body.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: I really learned my body and how to take care
• 10:40
  Speaker 4: of my body outside of facility as well. So yeah,
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: just carrying those habits over.
• 10:46
  Speaker 8: At what point did you like to develop a routine
• 10:48
  Speaker 8: that you feel comfortable with in terms of the taking
• 10:49
  Speaker 8: care of your body stuff.
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: I f I really feel like after the National Championship
• 10:53
  Speaker 4: run long season, so you really had to, you know,
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: get back in the weight room and train room and
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: fine tune different parts of your body. And it really
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: I made a big jump this past season, as you
• 11:04
  Speaker 4: can tell on on my game tape. So I really
• 11:07
  Speaker 4: felt like my habits showed up this this past season.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: John told us.
• 11:10
  Speaker 8: About a conversation that you that your agent had with
• 11:12
  Speaker 8: you maybe a couple of years ago about improving as
• 11:14
  Speaker 8: a pass catcher.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: You talk about the growth in that part of your
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: game and what.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: All went into that.
• 11:20
  Speaker 4: Yes, It really started off in the spring, just jumping
• 11:23
  Speaker 4: in line with the receivers and seeing how they really
• 11:27
  Speaker 4: break down, how they keep their arms pumping, things like
• 11:29
  Speaker 4: the little things that I didn't really notice, and I
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: didn't have as many reps in game this past season,
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: but just doing a lot of that and practice and
• 11:41
  Speaker 4: watching so many films of receivers and stuff, and continue
• 11:44
  Speaker 4: to learn this past offseason because it's been a while
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: since I played a football game, So just having that
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: so much time to just watch film and learn, it's
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: been good.
• 11:51
  Speaker 6: Talk about how your decision making. Your vision one of
• 11:54
  Speaker 6: the things that stands out like about your abilities. Sean
• 11:57
  Speaker 6: Alexander was an MVP running back here and actually had
• 12:00
  Speaker 6: his vision test that latterly had like could see things
• 12:03
  Speaker 6: outside of you. I'm curious with all the testing you've done,
• 12:05
  Speaker 6: have you ever had any vision testing to see if
• 12:07
  Speaker 6: you've got anything going on there.
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: I don't know if I've had any testings, but I'm
• 12:10
  Speaker 4: interested to see if if I have some type of something.
• 12:13
  Speaker 6: I don't know, when did you realize that that was
• 12:15
  Speaker 6: something you had at you You're just special in terms
• 12:18
  Speaker 6: of being able to see what was coming uh in
• 12:19
  Speaker 6: the hole.
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: It's not something I realize. It's something that you know,
• 12:26
  Speaker 4: coaches I've really trusted told me, Hey, you're different in
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: this aspect, and as long as you keep understanding and
• 12:34
  Speaker 4: you know, getting smarter in the game of football, you're
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: gonna separate yourself from others. So I took that and
• 12:38
  Speaker 4: ran with it.
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: Did you already when when it comes to valueing players,
• 12:42
  Speaker 7: you guys talk a lot about.
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: Getting know the person the competitor in the evaluation of
• 12:46
  Speaker 6: you're daring. What stood out you in that aspect?
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I just I mean, just like class he talks about,
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: you know, being a pro just a classy person obviously
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: was raised well, uh yeah, I you know, I felt
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: actually felt bad for him during the process, kind of
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: in the background, watching all these zoom calls and everything,
• 13:06
