• 0:07
  Speaker 1: sometimes you really get opportunities, and this year I feel like,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: you know, I really been getting opportunities. You know, sometimes
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: they throw my way, but once or twice a game.
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: So honestly, he just felt good to get an inception.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: You know, it was a great call. And shoot, you know,
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: tissing over Thilves gotta get those.
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: Were you working there gonna take away? Oh?
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Nah, I knew I had caught the ball. Now, I
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: knew I was down on the ground. I have a
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: I have elbow, elbow, and he's all that on the ground,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: so I knew. I knew I was down. It's just
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: the fact that, uh, shoot, you know they got to
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: review be all dramatic and stuff like that.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: You're a big big fan of to answer the face
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: calls e shit nah, because uh, when you out there
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: playing physical and you out there just being yourself and
• 0:53
  Speaker 2: playing your game, you know, uh, certain.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: Stuff like that happens. But uh, I thought it was
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: a clean play. And you know they see different things
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: from the top and you know whatever the rev scene,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: but you know, that's a player I'd like to have back.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: But you know, at the same time, we still went
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: and got an interception with Jay Love, so it was
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: an even greater moment.
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: Shoue.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: I was hoping some of my team got it. It.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: It felt like it was like a movie. Everything was
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: just a slow motion. I was looking at the ball
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: in the air and it was just falling so slow,
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: and I just seen twenty jump and get in. I
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: was happy, and I knew, uh, once we did that,
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: shoot the twelves going rully behind and our offense. You know,
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: they played pretty well today and I knew that if
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: we gave them a chance, they can go do their thing.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: Legal penalties, do you feel like being the bigger corners,
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: maybe he might be a little more under the microscope
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: for for calls like that.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: A little bit last year, I ain't really have that
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: too much of that problem. They felt like I only
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: got like one of those penalties, so, uh, we would
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: have to see. But you know, it just happens because
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: I'm a taller guy, like you said, and long arms,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: so so you just shoot these long ms and it
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: may hit a guy. But at at the end of
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: the day, you know, I just played my game and
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: we just go to practice and clean it up.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: You guys do three safeties on the field.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: What kind of you guys. Oh, there's a lot of things.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Nigga was offensive, different looks, you know.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: It shows that. Uh.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: At the same time, we just play off each other.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Whenever you can have three safeties, you know, go in
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: and out the game, rotating stuff like that. So it
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: helps us out tremendously. And those three safeties are some
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: of the best safeties in the league. And having them
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: back there with you, it makes the job easier and
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: it helps with communication throughout the defense.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: How does that niggare jobs? Shoot?
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Uh knowing that Uh, I ain't gotta make as much tactics,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: but also shoot uh knowing that they just know their jobs.
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: These guys are vest they've been in the league for
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: a long time and a young guy like me is
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: my second year. Having guys like them it helps me
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: out because it shows, you know, what I can learn
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: from the you know, off the field and on the field,
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: and so far throughout the season I've been picking new
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: new things up and having those guys is really a blessing.
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: Year. Also like seeing another class comment to you and all.
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: So as long as it's pretty cool, I like it
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: because uh, they gave me flash back to the O
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: Seahawks team. You know, they had a class of Ruts
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: I think, and then they had like another class then
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: they like around that time, and they went on and
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: made a legacy for theyself. So I feel like, you know,
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: we can if not reach that level or beyond that level,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: we just can't continue to work, continue to play as
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: a team, continue to play off each other, and get
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: closer as you know, as a family. And having that
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: extra class come in here, it shows that you know
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: the culture throughout that building. It works, and whatever the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: coaches are teaching others coaching us, we just.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: Buy into it and do our team. There else makes
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: sure
