  Speaker 1: What. Oh, it's the most interesting press conference venue.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: We have here, right, Hi, Trevor, So, you made history
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: becoming the first rookie quarterback in twenty twenty one to
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: win an NFL game here in London. Yourself and the
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: Jags clearly have a special relationship with the UK. What
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: do you think is next for the franchise here in London?
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, hopefully the first team to win two games in
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: a row here. I mean that's I think we're the
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: first team to play back to back games here, if
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: that's rights that right, first game ever or first team
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: ever to do that, So that would be that would
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: be great. That'll be a success for us. But no,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: I think just obviously when we were here last year,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: we didn't didn't play great. Personally myself, I didn't play great,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: so kind of kind of go back and you know,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: back to the drawing board and right that wrong. So
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to getting that opportunity to play again here.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: I know the team is. We're excited being here for
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: ten days, which is a little different kind of we'll
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: get to settle in which will be great. So I
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: think we're excited. We know, we you know, we know
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: we're here for at the end of the day. But yeah,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: obviously we have a big fan base over here and
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: play over here every year, so we're getting pretty familiar.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: This is my third time now traveling over here for games,
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: so it's always fun. I know the guys look forward
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: to it, and especially after today, we get our kind
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: of some sleep, get our rest, get our energy, and
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: our win back in our sales after the long travel day.
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: But we'll be feeling good tomorrow. Hey, Trevora, how did
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: you How did you see the team sort of bounce
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: back this week in practice from what happened on Sunday
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: last week. Yeah, I thought we had a great week
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: of prep, a lot of energy, you know, just continuing
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: to stick to our process and just focusing on execution,
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: the details, really studying our plan, especially on a week
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: like this where you're traveling in the middle of the week.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: You know, on Thursday, we're leaving traveling overnight to come
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: over here. I think it's just more important than ever
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: that you know your plan, you know all the details,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: you're prepared so you can go play free on Sunday
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: and you're not thinking because you do kind of miss
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: a little bit of prep on that travel time. So
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: I think guys understand that, you know, we're prepared. We
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: still got, you know, forty eight hours or so to
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: continue to prepare for the game. But it's been a
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: great week. We've been flying around. Even today, I thought
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: the energy was great after a long, long plane ride
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: and guys being a little tired. I thought we brought
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: a lot of juice and it was good.
• 2:24
  Speaker 3: Now that you have done it a little bit, do
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: you feel like by the time it kicks off, your
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: body's acclimated and it's just a normal game where you
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: have to convince yourself it is or what's that like?
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: I think you feel, you know, I'm trying to think. Now,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: it's obviously been a year since we've been over here.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: You feel pretty good by Sunday. I think even tomorrow
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: you feel a lot better. Today is a tough day.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: You get through today and you just keep your mind
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: locked into everything because obviously we're still you know, installing
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: some stuff, we're still preparing and meeting so and now
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: we're done, but this morning we were so I think
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: you can just really have to put some extra attention
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: on focusing in on that, because that's when you're tired
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: from the plane ride. You know, you probably didn't sleep
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: as much as you normally do, and that's your night
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: of sleep for Thursday night is on the plane. So
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: that's the that's the challenging part. But now where we're at,
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: you get a chance to get your body back, get
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: a lot of sleep tonight to get ready and usually
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: tomorrow you're feeling pretty good, and then Sunday feel pretty normal,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: and then it'll be interesting. Now we have then we're
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: going to have a whole other week, so we should
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: feel great going into that week. But yeah, you feel
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: pretty good by Sunday.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: You just mentioned this interview room, and even those interviews
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: out there are a little bit different set. I mean,
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: it's literally a change of scenery.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: Right it is it is, and it's this place is great.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Staying at the grove, it's really it's really cool. Honestly,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: I love staying over the weather. It's a nice change
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: of weather. You know how hot it is in Jacksonville
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: right now, so you get a little bit cooler weather,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: kind of disconnect a little bit and get out here
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: and you're kind of in the middle of nowhere, which
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: I like. It's it's it's beautiful though, it's it's it's
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: a lot of fun.
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: Hey, Trevor, you took a different approach to your offse
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: than you just mentioned earlier, going back to basics, new diet,
• 4:04
  Speaker 4: gaining sixty to seven pounds of muscle, refining your footwork,
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: and tweaking mechanisms. Then you add in the fact that
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: you have a new wide receiver and Havevin Midley, who,
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: in my opinion, is a great, great wide receiver to
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: have them squad. Where do you quantify where you're at
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: right now as a quarterback of the jacksonvill jackcuars.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: A good question. You know, I think that I've made
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: a lot of improvements over the you know, the past
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: two offseasons really since I've been in the NFL. Things
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: that I've wanted to improve on. I feel like I have.
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: There's still a ton of room for me to grow.
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: I think I've become a more consistent decision maker. I
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: think I've become more accurate, especially down the field this offseason.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: You know, I think obviously each season, even if it's
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: guys that you've played with in the past, you're still
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: kind of working on that chemistry and some early things
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: early in the season, so we're still getting there. In
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: some of those areas. But I think it's coming along great.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: The relationship with the guys is awesome, with christians A, Calvin,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: Evan and all the other guys. Calvin is coming along great.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: He's gonna be a huge weapon for us. So I think,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: you know, obviously, you look at where we're at. We're
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: one and two. Obviously we'd like to be we'd like
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: to have more wins than that, and and don't love
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: how we played last couple of weeks. But I know
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: we're headed in the right direction and looking forward to
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: getting back on track this week. And yeah, I think
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: we are headed in the right direction. I'm excited about that.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Hi, Trava, this is Jenny from the Zonne Welcoming.
• 5:24
  Speaker 5: Well, welcome to London.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: First of all, how important is the international growth.
• 5:28
  Speaker 5: Of the NFL to you?
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: So I'm sorry the international What the international growth? Yeah,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: it's I mean, just to see the fans over here,
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: it's awesome. I think it's unique because you're it's not
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: like a home or an away game. Technically it's a
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: home game for us, but there's a I would say
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: there's probably more Jags fans just because we've consistently played
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: over here for the past few years. But it's cool
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: seeing like every NFL team's jerseys in the stadium, you know,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: on on the game day. It's it's really cool.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: So what's the biggest difference between the American fans and
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: the European fans? And yeah, what do you want to
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: say to them?
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: The biggest difference? I think it's interesting at some points
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: in the game, the European fans like cheer at like
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: strange times compared to American fans, Like usually it's only
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: in a it's a home game, it's only on big
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: plays for us or vice versa, you know, whatever it is.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: And then it's like sometimes I feel like European fans
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: might like cheer for like a flag or something, and
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: it's like, so some of that stuff's just like funny.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: It's kind of interesting. But I just would say I
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: appreciate the support. I mean, it's it means a lot
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: to us, and obviously it provides this opportunity for us
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: to come and play over here. If there was no
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: interest in you guys watching us over here, we wouldn't
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: be here. So I appreciate all the support from y'all,
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: from all the European fans, you know, not even just
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: here in London but everywhere. So it we're thankful for
