  Speaker 1: Coach this week, you know, two joints with Tampa Bay.
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: You know, you see in the last couple weeks of joints.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: How much value you guys got out of that, and
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: just what kind of test can Tampa Bay kind of
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: be for you guys this week.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I think they're very good football team.
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: Watching their first two preseason games, you know, they're always physical.
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: Coach Bowls's teams have always been physical, and I think
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: there's gonna be a great challenge for us. I think
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: we've gotten a lot out of the work we've gotten already,
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: you know, down in New Orleans and here with Carolina,
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: and you learn a lot about your guys.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: You know who jumps out in those settings. That's important.
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: So even in the in the preseason games, I think
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: we've gotten a lot out of that.
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: Coach said yesterday he's excited to see Josh heinz Allen
• 0:38
  Speaker 4: go up against Tristan Wurfs.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: What are you excited to see from that matchup and
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: how their games compare. Yeah, I mean, I think that's
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: a great challenge.
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: Those are two great players, you know, And the cool
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: thing about any of these settings where you're going against
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: somebody else is there's it's competitive, you know, so you'll
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: see those guys, You'll see the best version of themselves,
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: I'm sure, and I'm sure they're looking forward to it too.
• 1:01
  Speaker 4: Josh said that he knows what everybody on the defense
• 1:04
  Speaker 4: is doing, and that's something that the coaching staff is
• 1:06
  Speaker 4: kind of trickled down to each player. Why is that
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: important for guys to know what let's say he's a
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: d one and what.
• 1:12
  Speaker 5: A defensive back is doing.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Well, I think it's all built on trust. I've said
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: that before.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: You know, and the more you understand, right, the more
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: you understand about everyone's rolling the defense, the more you
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: understand why it's so important to do your job.
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: And when you're out there where guys who know what
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: they're doing, they're communicating loudly, and we say in that
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: room that volume reflects confidence.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: You know, when you're making a call, it should be
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: a loud, good or real call.
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: So everybody knows, you know, and everybody trusts each other
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: so we can all go play fast.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: So I think that's a big part of this. Probably
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: what he's referring to.
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: That trust and accountability, Like how can you foster that?
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: Is it only through games, in in meetings or or
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: where can you really see that growth?
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: No, that that's real in the meetings, like every time
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: you're watching the play, guys have to make calls, you know,
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: and they in the meeting room setting often know who
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: knows it really well and who doesn't know it that
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: well because you hear it right they're speaking confidently, or
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: somebody you know is a little bit monotone, and that
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: means that they're not quite sure.
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: So what you're trying to do at all times.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Whether it's in the walkers, in the meetings, in the practice,
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: is demand communication so you develop trust.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I think that's a big part of it.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Trevorson last week that he feels like some of their
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: rushing success and practice has come from going to get
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: your guys run defense. He says, it feels like he's
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: bring his head against the brig wall sometimes. Is that
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: kind of what you've been aiming for that helps the
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: entire team get better, not just the defense.
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think anytime if you're playing good run defense,
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: you know, you're trying to eliminate as much fifty to
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: fifty ball as you can. You know, and in any event,
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: whether you're doing a great job in the pass game
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: or the run game. If you're making somebody one dimensional,
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: that's a good thing. But what I will say is,
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: I think, you know, that's I kind of see that
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: vice versa, meaning that we've gotten a lot better going
• 3:00
  Speaker 3: against the guys we're going against every day.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: You know, last year and this year.
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: I think our offensive line coaches have done an unbelievable job,
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: you know, and Liam is a guy that's he's gonna
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: pound the rock.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: He believes in that.
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: So that's something that's really helped us defensively, you know,
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: practicing physical and getting the opportunity to go against guys
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: where technicians and we're coaching finish every day.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: So that's where we've benefited from that as well.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: And then Brian Thomas defensively, is he kind of showing
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: you some things that maybe kind of remind you of
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: maybe Danny and BJ at this time last year.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: He definitely has shown me some things.
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: I mean, he's played explosively in the games, and I
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: think he's you know, I think he's jumped out his
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: play style, his effort that's jumped out, and that's what
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: we saw in him, you know, watching his tape at
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: South Carolina. He was a guy that was gonna run
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: and hit. He was going to play his ass off
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: every play. That's what honestly, we really really liked about him,
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: and we were fired up to get him in here
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: for that reason. And he's he's proven to do that
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: here in the summer and since the spring, since he's
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: been here.
• 3:57
  Speaker 5: Deshaun Watson was just an outsistant officially order for Week
• 4:00
  Speaker 5: one here in Jacksonville. Obviously you're focused on Tampa Bay
• 4:03
  Speaker 5: at the moment, but does that change how you approach
• 4:06
  Speaker 5: that matchup from a defensive standpoint. No.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: What I'll say is, I mean I got the opportunity
• 4:10
  Speaker 3: to coach against him in college when I was at
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: Boston College and he was at Clemson.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: I mean, it was phenomenal player. So we didn't have.
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: Too much success against him that night when I was
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: at VC. But he's a great player and he's certainly
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: going to be a challenge. Of stuff they're doing, you know,
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: just watching them to this point, they're doing a lot
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: of really good stuff.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: They're doing a great job.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: Do you start watching Cleveland preseason stuff now their new staff?
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: Does that happen after this week? I mean when you
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: kind of start that week one.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: Prim we're always kind of trying to peek and stay
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: up on, you know, as much as you can. And
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: when you have I don't know if you have any downtime,
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: but time you're trying to go around and just around
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: the league watching as much as you can.
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: So yeah, that's that's always part of it this time
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: of year or two.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: Christ and braswell. The work that he's done this camp,
• 4:52
  Speaker 4: what can you say about it? He started as a
• 4:55
  Speaker 4: limited participating and it's kind.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: Of worked his way back.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Brads, he's done a great job to fight his
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: way back.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: That's kind of who he is though, too, you know
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: what I mean, he's Uh, he's a guy who gives
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: you maximum effort. He's a high character guy. He's got
• 5:08
  Speaker 3: a ton of talent. He's an explosive guy. You know,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: whether that's on special teams or defense. He's been a
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: guy that we can rely on. It's good to get
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: him back, you know, where he's feeling good, uh and
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: watch him get out there and.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Run around a little bit, you know.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: And he went to a great university, so you know,
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: I mean that's always a good thing from.
• 5:25
  Speaker 4: Jal Husky. He's kind of come a lot since parents.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: Come on, and what if you say that of him, Yeah, Jalen,
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: I mean, Jalen, He's got room for growth like anybody,
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: like any young guy at this point. But he's done
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: some good things and he's working hard to get better.
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: He's done what we've asked him, asked of him to
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: this point. So you know, I'm pleased with where he's at.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: But obviously he's got room to grow, and you know,
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: we're trying to help him do that. But he's he's
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: putting in a lot of good effort right now.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: I'm affording to the last couple of weeks spent for
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Caleb just in terms of, you know, getting on the
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: field for preseason and getting used to game speed as
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: much as you know you can.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for any guy.
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: I mean, in a lot of ways from a repetition perspective,
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: he's really in that, you know, a lot like the rookies,
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: right he didn't get to play last year, so a
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: lot of this stuff is new for him.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: And you know, you get better at football by playing football.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: So the more football he plays, you know, the more
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: it benefits him. And he needs that, you know, like
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: you said, he needs the pace to get out there
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: and feel the pace of everything. So I've seen a
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: jump in him and I thought he really had a
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: good week last week.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: I was gonna say, you like the way he's responded.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think. I think he had a good week
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: last week.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: I think, you know, even in the game, there's things
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: that you always want to clean up and correct, but
• 6:33
  Speaker 3: he's done a good job being diligent about that and
• 6:37
  Speaker 3: trying to get those things corrected. Even in the last
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: two days. You know, I see really good detail with him.
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: Yesterday's practice, I thought he had a really good day.
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: We just went through a bunch of stuff in here,
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: and I thought he did a really good job.
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: Last time we were in here talking a couple of
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: weeks ago, you were talking about undrafted guys and one
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: of the players you mentioned was Cameron Silm and Craig.
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: What sit out about him to you in this camp?
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Cam's always been a guy that you
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: can rely on to do his job.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: He's a very smart guy. You know.
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: I think he made a huge play for us down
• 7:07
  Speaker 3: in New Orleans at the end of the game, and
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: that's something that you can really count on with him.
• 7:12
  Speaker 3: Like him, he's you know, fighting his tail off every day,
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: you know, to get the the most production he possibly
• 7:18
  Speaker 3: can with the reps that he has. So he's been
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: a guy that obviously was on our team last year
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: and did a good job for us, and he's done
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: a pretty good job in camp so far. So I
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: know he's excited about this next game and this opportunity
• 7:28
  Speaker 3: for the joint practice.
• 7:29
  Speaker 6: I know, this has to be the worst day of
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: coaches career coming up on August thirtieth with NFL roster cuts.
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: How crucial is this next week for these players and
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: for you guys to really set that final roster.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: It's yeah, it's really crucial. It's all serious.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: Everything matters, you know, and I think you always got
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: to be honest and fair with the guys and tell
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: him what's being evaluated.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: We went back through that when they come into camp
• 7:53
  Speaker 3: with tell him what's being evaluated. We went back through
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: that after the game yesterday morning, you know, talking about
• 7:59
  Speaker 3: what we're at actually looking at you know, and the
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: guys who are on the uh on the bubble trying
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: to make the team. That's what we need to see
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: out of you, you know. And at the end of
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: the day, it's a results based business. Uh, in terms
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: of how we're all judged, right, are we producing? Are
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: we productive coaches and players? So, uh, that's we always
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: got to keep you always got to be aware of that.
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: You know pretty good. Appreciate you guys, right VT.
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: So last week the training camp, just kind of if
• 8:26
  Speaker 4: you self assess, where's the biggest area that you've grown
• 8:29
  Speaker 4: since camp started?
• 8:31
  Speaker 7: That I've grown, I would say is just being a
• 8:33
  Speaker 7: better leader, being better with my communication, whether that's with
• 8:37
  Speaker 7: the coaching staff, Trevor, uh, the wide receivers. I would
• 8:40
  Speaker 7: say that's probably been the biggest thing for me. I
• 8:43
  Speaker 7: was just being super intentional about that, just trying to
• 8:45
  Speaker 7: growing all the little things.
• 8:46
  Speaker 4: So yeah, I've seen William kind of talking to you
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: through throughout practice of pulling you aside, just that relationship
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: specifically with him. How much has that kind of blossomed
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: over the last year or so?
• 8:58
  Speaker 7: That was growing a lot, Like I said, trying to
• 9:00
  Speaker 7: be intentional about those little things, being communicative about the
• 9:05
  Speaker 7: things that I'm seeing and just listening to the things
• 9:07
  Speaker 7: that he's seeing. So, I mean, just so we can
• 9:09
  Speaker 7: be better as an offense and be better as a group,
• 9:12
  Speaker 7: and just trying to take all those things in and
• 9:13
  Speaker 7: just going out there and apply it on the field. So,
• 9:15
  Speaker 7: like I said, we can be better as a group.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: A lot of young guys in your receiver room now
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: and you're going into your thirty year, is it important
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: for you now to kind of maybe take the leadership
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: role when it comes to, you know, bringing along new
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: guys into the offense.
• 9:27
  Speaker 7: I would say it's super important for me to do
• 9:29
  Speaker 7: that because I mean I've had some good guys that's
• 9:31
  Speaker 7: done that for me, whether it was the people from
• 9:34
  Speaker 7: my rookie year, whether it's Jakobe doing it. And then
• 9:37
  Speaker 7: just us going into year two of the system, we
• 9:39
  Speaker 7: know a little bit more than I would say they
• 9:41
  Speaker 7: do of how like the coach sees things and how
• 9:44
  Speaker 7: the coach wants things. So just trying to bring them
• 9:46
  Speaker 7: up to speed on like little stuff like that, I
• 9:48
  Speaker 7: would say that's probably been like the biggest thing that
• 9:50
  Speaker 7: I've been trying to do. And just like how they're
• 9:53
  Speaker 7: running routes and like just trying to give them tips
• 9:56
  Speaker 7: or teach them how to do like certain little things
• 9:58
  Speaker 7: just to help them out, just to give them like
• 9:59
  Speaker 7: little game on thirtae things. What have you seen so far,
• 10:03
  Speaker 7: he's just been hooping, he's been doing all the little things.
• 10:05
  Speaker 7: He's been doing everything right. He's super smart, super physical.
• 10:08
  Speaker 7: And that was that was with all the new guys.
• 10:11
  Speaker 7: That was the biggest thing that I've seen with them
• 10:13
  Speaker 7: coming in. They were all super smart and they picked
• 10:16
  Speaker 7: up on the offense super quick. So yeah, you guys talk.
• 10:19
  Speaker 8: The receiver about how this like receptions and receiving yards
• 10:24
  Speaker 8: or receiving touchdowns, could you just spread out among all
• 10:27
  Speaker 8: three of the guys, right? And how weird that might
• 10:29
  Speaker 8: be that there's nobody that's you know, got won most
• 10:32
  Speaker 8: of all the catches or all the touchdowns or senior
• 10:35
  Speaker 8: you know what I mean, Like there's no guy that's
• 10:37
  Speaker 8: gonna put up fifteen hundred yards or so.
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: Maybe there is, I don't know.
• 10:41
  Speaker 7: So what was the question? The fact is all going
• 10:46
  Speaker 7: to be spread out? I mean, I wouldn't say that's weird.
• 10:48
  Speaker 7: It just goes to compliments the offense that we have
• 10:51
  Speaker 7: and goes to compliment on all the work that we
• 10:53
  Speaker 7: put in for each and every one, each of each
• 10:55
  Speaker 7: and every one of us to be able to go
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: out there and do big things. I mean, I would
• 10:58
  Speaker 7: just say it compliments compliments us, and we compliment each
• 11:01
  Speaker 7: other being able to do different things. We all can
• 11:03
  Speaker 7: go out there and do a lot and just be
• 11:05
  Speaker 7: able to spread spread the ball around and just being
• 11:08
  Speaker 7: the right spots where we're supposed to be. And yeah,
• 11:10
  Speaker 7: can these.
• 11:11
  Speaker 8: Joint practices be more productive than preseason games with the
• 11:15
  Speaker 8: speed and the intensity?
• 11:17
  Speaker 7: I would say so, I actually like the joints better
• 11:19
  Speaker 7: than going out there and playing in that. But I
• 11:22
  Speaker 7: mean because I feel like we get more work done
• 11:23
  Speaker 7: during the joints, And I feel like it's like people
• 11:26
  Speaker 7: are actually going out there and like giving it everything
• 11:28
  Speaker 7: during the practice. So I mean, I feel like we
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: get a lot more out of it.
• 11:31
  Speaker 5: Yah that Trevor recently touched down or excuse me, touched
• 11:35
  Speaker 5: on how the chemistry between the two of y'all have
• 11:37
  Speaker 5: shown up every day. Is there anything that y'all can
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: do now without saying a word that might not have
• 11:41
  Speaker 5: been possible you know, the years prior?
• 11:45
  Speaker 7: So say that again, So.
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: Like, is there anything that the two of y'all can
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: maybe like do without saying a word to one another?
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: It's like it's just you guys are synced up rather
• 11:53
  Speaker 5: than like something that would have had to be discussed previously.
• 11:56
  Speaker 7: I mean, just like being I was the biggest thing

• 12:09
  Speaker 7: to be, and I know how much time I got
• 12:11
  Speaker 7: to get to my spot. So I mean, I would
• 12:13
  Speaker 7: say that's probably like the biggest thing, just being in
• 12:16
  Speaker 7: the right spots at the right time. I wouldn't say
• 12:18
  Speaker 7: it's like stuff that we go out there and like

  Speaker 1: on springboard get momentum?
• 13:23
