Speaker 3 (00:52):
Yeah, I think the depth just gotta prepare. You just
gotta keep preparing. Like the starters. You know, the same
conversations Jones been having, you know, the last couple of weeks.
You know, uh, he didn't think he was you know
he was gonna have to start, you know, the last
couple of weeks. So you know, just big testament the
guys that's just could come in prepared, come in working,
(01:13):

Speaker 5 (01:28):
What does that transition been like for you going from
Washington going down to San Francisco? But what has the
transition been getting acclimated to the offense, getting aclimated to
the little atmosphere and new environment.
Speaker 1 (01:39):
What has that been like for you?
Speaker 3 (01:42):
Uh, It's been good. You know, it's been a work
in progress for sure. You know, it was a quick,
quick turnaround for sure. You know. But I think you know,
with Kyle's offense is easy to you know kind of
you know, for my style. You know, it's a lot
of run, you know, run run game in there. So
like it's easy for me to you know, pick up
to that stuff. You know, some of the urbans and
stuff I'm still picking up on, but you know, for
(02:04):
the most part, I've been picking up on stuff pretty fast.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
All running back coaches out there with y'all, Bobby Turner,
you telling hey, So man, I was on last night
Bobby T. He told me to tell you what's up.
Speaker 3 (02:15):
Okay, I'm gonna shure let him know tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
I'm let him know. What's been kyle message to you guys.
I've known Kyle since who was twelve years old. I
know a lot of the guys out there because a
lot of the guys where you were with me when
I was in Denver, Kyle was in high school and
when he went on to the University of Texas. But
I know a lot of those coaches out there. So
what's been kyle message to you guys? That keep you
(02:37):
guys three, got you guys three and know even though
the injuries have started to mount.
Speaker 3 (02:44):
I think it's the message that really sits with me
for really is he's been telling us, you know, just
just play desperate. You know, like you know that that's
just been a message, just play desperate now. And I
feel like, you know, that's enough said. Honestly, you know, shit,
everybody pretty much respond to that alone. Everybody knows exactly
what he mean when he said that, like, you know,
(03:05):
play desperate and shit, I feel like, you know, that's
that's the message simply to that limit.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Brad. Okay, we hear this all of a sudden.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
I mean I thought you was playing well for Washington
and then all you so, you know, he might get
traded or if he did not get they can't find
a trade part, they're gonna release.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Did did Was there anything in training?
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Cap? Was it anything in the off season that led
you to believe that you wouldn't be a commander this season?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
I mean, honestly, I couldn't even tell you that. Uh.
I was just so focused on, you know, just being
a commander. You know, That's what I felt like at
the time. That's the only thing I should have been
been focused on, you know, unless you know, somebody from
the higher up had a message they wanted to say,
you know, say something to me that made me think otherwise.
Other than that, you know, my only focus was being
(03:53):
a commander, you know. So you know, I couldn't tell
you nothing besides like the rumors or something like that
that probably like triggered it, you know, but they don't
really get too caught up in rumors and stuff that
go on on the internet. You don't really know. But
apparently they was knowing, they was knowing stuff I ain't.
Speaker 5 (04:14):
Listen be robbed that had that happened all of us, baby,
that happened all of us one day.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
Obviously it happened to me, uncle, I'm sure it's happened
to you.
Speaker 5 (04:20):
And sometimes you going about, you going on about your beness,
doing what you're doing, for getting prepared.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
For the season, and all of a sudden, you know,
it always comes from in house too.
Speaker 4 (04:29):
It always comes in the house.
Speaker 5 (04:30):
They purposely put it out there just to get just
to get the storm, just to get the storm going,
you know, and it lets you know, well, damn, that's
how y'all feel about me, everything for you, all of
work gotten put in the bloods of window war with y'all,
and that's what y'all want to lead out there.
Speaker 4 (04:47):
And it is.
Speaker 5 (04:48):
But listen, you off the green and pastures obviously enjoying it.
How you enjoy your time out there in in in
San Francisco.
Speaker 6 (04:55):
So far?
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Shit, I just I mean, I jumped straight into but man,
I ain't really have time to really just you know,
get out and really explore like that. You know. I'm
sure when when the time come out, I'll see what
it's like. But you know, right now, it's just been
all ball for me. Man, I had to jump straight
off the jet like yo, like trying to try to
get into play. But you know I was because ship
I gotta I'm not in the same position, you know, I.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Got like a rookie all over again.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
I gotta learn the new.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
System, I mean, but at the same time also preparing
like the start of that should I always been so
you know, uh so when my normal car like come
in there and do my thing, you know, so that's
what I spear to do. So I'm you know, just
working on getting caught up to speed as fast as
I can, just so that it ain't no hiccups when
I get called. I don't care by the fact that
(05:42):
it's only been a couple of weeks. I ain't making
no excuse to that, you know what I'm saying. When
it's time for me to spin spin?
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Yeah? Yeah.
Speaker 1 (05:52):
Is the offense gramatically any different?
Speaker 5 (05:54):
I'm sure the words are different, But are there any
similarities from from the commanders and what would you have
to do with the forty nine ers or is it
completely different?
Speaker 3 (06:02):
I think we running a different scheme, you know, it's
definitely it's definitely a different scheme and it's actually like
I like it.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
You know, one cut, get your ass down here.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Exactly. You know that make that make enough sense? That
makes enough sense to me, you feel me? That makes
sense to me. I'm good.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
I blocked that one cut. Hey, we're gonna cut the backside.
When you make a decision, when you put your foot
in the dirt, commit to that. Come on with it.
It's sir, or Barbit, so we we practiced that. So
(06:40):
what the here you doing it? Yeah, Barbit, don't play.
You know, I don't know if you know Barbit, bar
don't play. I don't got to know him well over
the last Yeah for sure. Oh yeah, Barbit. A great guy,
man here, a great guy. What's it like having Christian McCaffrey.
I mean, you're in the same meeting rum with Christian
mccaff you in the backfield sometimes.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
What's it been like?
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Because you know, going to the Verse of Alabama, you
used to having you know, great back great players around you.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
But he's a different animal.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Yeah, he definitely, you know he is who he is though,
but he's super humble, you know, great you know, great teammate.
So it's you know, it's easy to you know, being
a room with him. You know, he's just a great
team player, so he you know, he ain't too caught
up in you know, being Christian mccaffreyn and all that.
You know, So it's been pretty cool, you know, just
(07:32):
getting the norm and get the play alongside him and
just seeing how he go about his business and why
he is the special player he is because he he
handled he handled his business like that he'd be on
top of you know what I'm saying. It's just been
fun to watch just get the nor him and you know,
just see how he he's been the great like that
over these years.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Hey man, what is it like?
Speaker 6 (07:54):
Man?
Speaker 5 (07:54):
I'm like, like just just the thought man and being
able to share a few I'm kind of kind of
hurt almost a little bit not being able to play
in this era because there's some great players that I
enjoyed watching, especially on the deepest side of the ball
that I would look that I would have loved to
go against. Fred Warner has to be one of my
favorite players. Man, What did you You got to tell me?
(08:16):
What is it like being able to share the field
with young bull Man every time you're all out there
on that field.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
Yeah, I think I think you know, being able to
share the field Fred Special. You know, that's a that's
a it's a moment in my life. I ain't gonna
take for granted for Shore because I came out here
the same friend and had to play against Fred my
rookie year. Yeah. Man, we we told each other up,
but we hit it. Look, we hit each other enough
just you know, after the game, like like bro, respect, Yeah,
(08:46):
you know what I'm saying, respect for so you know
what I'm saying. So you know, by the time I
walked in the building here, it was just like you know,
we still remember like no moments like playing against each other,
and I'm like, we're on the same team, you know
what I'm saying, So like we're gonna we're gonna go
do that to other teams. Now we're gonna go do
we was going to each other. We're gonna go do
that to somebody else, you know what I'm saying. So yeah, uh,
(09:07):
I think that's that's dope for sure.
Speaker 6 (09:09):
Rob.
Speaker 2 (09:09):
Do you remember uh first game you came out. It's
a tremendous meme. You came out running to many men
after the traumatic you ended up getting shot, and I
was like, well, he probably done for the year. In hell,
you back in no time. I'm like, damn, I mean
obviously that's a very traumatic experience. What was it like
running out after being shot? I don't think you missed
(09:31):
very many games?
Speaker 1 (09:32):
What you miss?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Like three?
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Four games?
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Or you can't?
Speaker 1 (09:34):
You now you was right back?
Speaker 6 (09:36):
Yeah, I only missed.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
I only missed the games that I was out for the.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
NFL Yeah, reserve.
Speaker 3 (09:43):
Yeah, so you gotta you gotta you gotta miss, you
gotta miss for a game. So those only those are
only four games I had miss Did you know?
Speaker 2 (09:50):
Did you know you was gonna be able to make
it back so quick? So when this happened, so what
what what are the doctors telling you? What are the
athletic trainers telling you? And then what are you telling yourself?
Speaker 6 (10:02):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
So the doctors actually told me that I would make
a full recovery. I would you know, I would be
able to you know, play ball game. You know. So
that's the first thing the doctor told me. So once
I got out of there ship, I took it straight
to the recovery room, you know. And once I got
in the recovery room, it was just working progress, you know,
I you know, once I started walking and I was
(10:23):
able to job and just move my feet and just
do a little cuts and stuff to just make me
feel like myself again. I just started kind of ramping
myself up just in the in the training room again,
stronger and really ship. I still wasn't ready to play.
I just I wanted to play, you know, in my head,
I was like, you know, ain't nothing gonna stop me
(10:44):
from playing. I'm playing, especially after shit again named the
starter or too, I'm like, I got to get out
of the start of my career as a starter. I
gotta go get get get in there and get active.
Speaker 2 (10:54):
Like and.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
I wasn't even close to hell and helped me when
I even touch the field anyway, not even close, not
by a long shot. By long shot.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
I ran.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
I ran on one LIGT. I ran on one list
for two years for sure, like no doubt. But so
when I when I finally came back, this was the
thing that this, this was the decision making time after
I was had set out for the first four games
and I was able to come back. You know, Rivera
(11:29):
Rivera was my head coach at the time. Close Rivera.
He came in the locker room, he came to me.
He was just like, yo, totally up you. I respect
that though, you know what I'm saying. He came up
to me, he was just like, Yo, it was totally
up you. You know, like your call your shot. I'm like,
I'm going, you know, That's that was the only words
I have on like, I'm going, so going.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
That's how That's just how going through this traumatic experience,
have you had to move differently? Have you surrounded yourself
with different people, make sure you stay out of certain areas?
So how has that had that impacted the way you
move day to day? Now?
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Honestly, I've always been the type that moved precisely, you know.
I always had that precision in my movements, you know,
so it was actually actually kind of shocking how that
even drew up on me. I didn't realize that the
city was just that bad, you know, I just didn't.
I didn't know it was that that that terrible out
you know. I was just calmly stopping through, you know,
(12:33):
I ain't know it was that terrible, you know, to
why I had to really you know, just be all
the way on. Yeah, Like, like I really wasn't even
on that type of time at the time. And you know,
most like that's just that's just how I naturally move anyway.
So I kind of let my guards down for a minute,
(12:54):
down after just getting the rules and stuff from the
the NFL security of our team that was just telling
us like how the gun laws and stuff like that
is down there. So I'm like, all right, I ain't
got ain't no guns guns down, ain't gonna worry about.
Speaker 1 (13:07):
The gun feel so bad, please.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
My mindset, just my mind ship was just kind of
like I kind of like slept on I slept on
them for it, just a little. I kind of slept
on them, you know what I'm saying. And it happened
just that fast, just in that little in that little
that little window where I was sleeping at I took
you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Yeah, they ran down the man you had the jewel,
They take anything up off you.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Oh man, I ain't really even have nothing nothing on
me but my wallet and my keys. But there was
there was more shocked as they was just as shocked
as I was. So it was just kind of like
we was at like a little standoff, and uh, I
ain't really I ain't give them. I ain't give them nothing.
But it was I just ain't really have time to
(13:57):
you know, Shi, it was just having so fast, I
ain't really have had time to do nothing, but but
what I did. But like I said, you never know
what you're gonna do until you get in a situation.
Like you know, I learned something about myself that day.
Speaker 4 (14:09):
You know, I'm glad.
Speaker 1 (14:12):
I'm glad you're good though. I'm glad you're good.
Speaker 5 (14:14):
Man, by the grace of God, Man to be able
to continue doing what I'm sure was your childhood dream,
and that's playing the game of football.
Speaker 2 (14:21):
You you're from Tuscaloosah with any would did you consider
going to any other school other than Alabama.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
No, I really ain't even gonna lie to you, Bro.
It was always Bamba, Bro. It was always Bamba Man.
I even tried to go out and visit other schools,
and it's just it's just you right. Well, really it
almost got a little rowdy as right before like it
was time for me to go and sign the school.
(14:55):
Curbly had got the head coaching job at after being that,
after being that Alabama for those years, and he was
part of my recruiting process as well, so you know,
he kind of went and got that job at Georgia.
He was just like, come on, I'm like, I'm like,
I went over there and checked him out, you know,
me and my family went over there, you know, sat
(15:16):
down with him, you know, you know. He made it
real interesting. He made it an interesting. He finally had
made my recruiting process interesting because at that point I
hadn't paid attention to nobody, and Kirby had got that job.
He made it interesting for a short, short second, and
I was just like, nah, bro, I can't do it.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
Give me your top five Alabama running backs.
Speaker 3 (15:43):
Of the talk like that all, I gotta go back.
I gotta go back a few years because my first
running back that I actually paid attention to, you know,
just growing up in Tuscaloos was Glenn Coff. So I'm
gonna throw him in there. I'm let Glenn slide. Then
I'm gonna let Mark Ingram get in there. I gotta
(16:06):
let Mark get in there. I gotta lit. I gotta

no order. When you when you're putting the Bama bags together,
it really ain't no order. You know what I'm saying.

That's tough, that's real. Hey, Josh yo.
Speaker 5 (17:24):

I just want to let you know who I would
have ran you over?
Speaker 6 (17:31):
Nah, you got me?
Speaker 1 (17:35):
All right, Let's welcome to the show. Vacuum safety.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Josh gonna tell us uh vikers right now, you're third
in takeaways, third and passing defense fourth and past differential,
sixth in total defense.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
What was it like out there?
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Because it happened in a flurry, you get a pick six,
you get a strip a scoopid score, and you guys
were just taking the ball away and then and the
office would go right out there and put seven on
the board.
Speaker 1 (17:58):
This seems like damn.
Speaker 2 (18:00):
I don't know if you've ever been a part of something,
as a part of a defense as concerned that where
you took the ball away and it looked so easy,
so effortless doing it.
Speaker 6 (18:10):
Nah, I've never been a part of nothing like that.
Like that was crazy. You talk about complimentary football like
that was all of that and within like two two
cs it was crazy, like it was back to back
plays and I almost felt like practice like watching it, Like,
you know how in practice.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Don't talk about my team like that.
Speaker 6 (18:33):
Man, No, I'm about to just explain. Let me explain it.
You know how in practice, when you know coach is
telling you to do something, you know you doing the individuals. Yeah,
you practicing the walk through and then now it's practice
and you're doing the same. You know what's coming. You
know you're able to do things you ain't able to
do if you don't know what's coming. And he was,
you know, we were making plays, especially Isaiah Rodgers obviously
(18:54):
the man at the hour, he was making plays that
It was just like, dang, Like, you don't see plays
like that unless it's practice, Like I'm so, I'm surprised,
like he getting this off on the NFL Sunday. But no, man,
that's the kind of defense we play. Man, you never
know who's gonna be. But you know, the way we
play defense and the way we cause havo. You know,
anybody bound to have a day like that on this defense.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
What hey, listen.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
Now, I'm gonna say listen, I watched that game. I
was hurt, Josh, I was hurt. Obviously I knew. I
knew Burrow was out, so I felt good. I felt
good about Browning coming in because he's been in before
when Burrow went down, and you know, he did pretty well.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
But obviously with you guys were able to do defensively,
I forget the offense.
Speaker 5 (19:36):
I want to talk about the defense because you you
Isaiah Rogers, that that that front end. Man, you guys
were all over the place and actually dominated the game
for all four quarters. I thought at some point, I
don't even know why I had the belief that we
even had a chance to win. But what you guys
showed the other night with Brian Florees, his creativity and
what he does exotically defensively and having the personnel to
(19:57):
be able to do some of the things he wants
to do.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
Man, it was a beautiful sight to see. Beautiful sight
to see.
Speaker 6 (20:02):
Yeah, man, when you can put it all together like that,
especially on game day. You know, we talk about it.
You know, we preach it every week, and uh, you know,
for us to come and do that, especially after the
loss in the way you know, we gave up two
hundred rest of yards a week before, you know, and
that's not that's not the way we play defense in Minnesota.
So you know, for us to come back and we
could practice going hard, head down, grinding, and for us
(20:24):
to come out Sunday and you know, put that out
there for everybody to watch and that's on take now.
You know, for the rest of the season. It was special.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
We mentioned. I think you guys had five turnovers at
the half.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Isaiah Rodgers he get a long pick six and then
he gives a punch out, scoop and score, and then
he gets it just like in another punch out. And
it seemed like this is just happening back to back
to back, and you're about looking like, damn boy, what
what did you all have to eat for breakfast?
Speaker 6 (20:52):
Yeah, it's crazy too. I walked up to him after
one of his players, I think it was after the
force fumble and he picked that up and score, and
I like, I grabbed his hands. I said, whatever you
got to get some of that, and hey lo and behold,
Lord blessed me right in my lap. I said, Okay,
he really has something. I don't know what he had
and what his routine was last week, but I've been
(21:13):
close to his hit this week. I'm gonna do the same.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
Obviously. You guys go to Dublin. You played the Steelers
in Ireland. You excited about I mean, you know anything
about Ireland other than hey UK, I mean, but have
you ever been to Island? Are you excited about playing
in Ireland?
Speaker 6 (21:31):
No? We've done the London thing. A couple of times,
but I've never been to Ireland, don't know too much
about the culture. Obviously I know a little bit, but
for me, it's gonna be a first something that I
did want to want to experience sometime in my life,
you know, just traveling and exploring the world. But yeah,
it's gonna be a unique experience. Yeah, I'm packing up.
(21:54):
Just finished doing a little bit of that man we had. Yeah,
it's crazy, man, so you got get used to that
time difference. And uh, were actually playing two games overseas
back to back.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
So y'all staying over there, right, Yeah.
Speaker 6 (22:08):
We're staying over there. We had to London on Monday,
so it's crazy.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
It's gonna be dope.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
I mean, obviously, I've been in Ireland many times to
watch watch soccer matches, So I'm not sure how much
free time you guys do have. Obviously you're going that far,
but when you go somewhere that far, you obviously want
to get out and at least venture out for experience
of culture.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
I'm not sure how much you know leeway and leash.
Speaker 6 (22:30):
Yeah, give you guys. We'll get a little bit. Huh,
we'll get a little bit.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Okay, Okay, you're gonna like it, You're gonna like it.
Speaker 5 (22:37):
I can't I can't say it right now on the
show on some of the things that you can enjoy
and do, but gonna I'm gonna text you.
Speaker 6 (22:42):
I'm an text you.
Speaker 2 (22:44):
Since you go into Ireland, you can't have a pint,
so you can't do that. So that's all. I don't
know how much you're going to get an opportunity to
do in Ireland, but you probably get something to do
in London because you guys get you know, you leave
on Monday, two years your updates, so that probably be
the day that you're get an opportunity to go see
big in or you know rip. Yeah, you get an
opportunity get around the city to take it, to take
(23:06):
some of that. JJ goes down obviously had a great
game Game one. It didn't play well the first half,
but then he comes out plays plays like gangbusters in
the second half against Chicago and you guys winning that
ball game. The second game didn't go quite so well.
He gets Nick incomes Carson Wentz. How gratified it is
to have a veteran that that has won a lot
(23:28):
of games in this league, played played for a number
of years and you know, like, you know what, we
got to play at our level we got. Let's make
it easy on him. Let's if we can get an
opportunity to get our hands on some balls. Let let's
take let's take the football away. Let's get a couple
of scoop and score, Let's get a pick six. Let's
do something to make it easy so for our team.
But you gotta got veteran guy. What's what was it
(23:50):
like watching what he was able to do with the
opportunities that you guys presented it.
Speaker 6 (23:55):
Yeah, man, it was nice. Man. As a defense, when
you can you know, you can help the offense. You
could play complimentary football. And you get a vet in
there that understands, you know, uh, time, time of possession
and uh just understands how to work the NFL NFL
game and the ebbs and flows of you know, a
football game. It's uh, it allows you to play with
(24:16):
a different kind of uh, you know, hunger and calmness
on defense. Obviously, you know, we we knew we had
to step up, and we know we're gonna have to
step up moving forward. Just understanding you know, we got
a backup quarterback in now and we still have a
young quarterback. When JJ does get back healthy, the defense
is gonna have to step up big. But uh, for
to see Carson Wentz come in, man, and just instantly
(24:38):
you know, click back to you know, his his prime
and it was special.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
You get Jordan Adison back this week.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
So now, hey, people gonna have to pay a game
all of a sudden, you can't double the triple Jetta.
Now you got to pay attention because Addison a burner,
can make plays, catch after you know, running catch, get deep. Uh,
what's it gonna be like to get this adition back
to your offense?
Speaker 6 (25:02):
Man? Man, it's uh, that's a that's a one on
one guy. Man, he's a big play explosive. I mean,
you talk about having two number one wide receivers on
your team and being able to use what they do
well at a at a high clip. It's crazy, man.
Ko he has both of them at his hand. He
can do whatever.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Man.
Speaker 6 (25:22):
So definitely, you talk about having a quarterback or young
quarterback or a backup veteran quarterback, having a guy like
that to throw two and eighteen on the other side, man,
you really can't go wrong, man, and you hand the
ball off Jordan Mason, Aaron Jones, Hey, man, that looked
like a winning off.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Of to me let basket is, bro, how long you
been in there? How many years you been in the league.
So you're the right person to ask six heres in
the league. Give me your five toughest defenders that you've
had to face, that your defensive had to face.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Receiver excuse me, receivers yivers.
Speaker 6 (25:59):
Oh far toughest. I would say Jamar Chase has been
up there just because the attention.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
You gotta uh, you gotta have know where he's at.
Speaker 6 (26:10):
Yeah, because you know he's one play and you know
he could change the whole game. Am Brown, thelions. We
see him twice a year. You know, great scheme, but uh,
he got great great He a great player. Yeah. I
say he's very efficient. He getting in and out. He
getting in and out man, and he do a lot
(26:30):
of the dirty work too. Pookah at them twice last
year he was giving us work. I ain't gonna lie.
Uh he I think he's a pretty goo with just
being able to use being able to use your physical
tools but still being able to use your agility at
the same time, man, and uh being able to produce
for your offense. I think Cooker does it really well. Obviously,
(26:52):
Davonte Adams, I would probably say number one on that list. Yeah,
because you saw him. You saw him twice a year. Yeah,
coming into the league. He gave my first touchdown. He
was talking and he was talking cash after. I was like,
I should have never messed up. But uh yeah, yeah,
I would say number one on that list right now. Obviously,
(27:12):
besides the guy I go against every day and practice
is definitely okay. Yeah, Jennis, Yeah, Jenas he did a
different breed man. I don't see I don't see him
do some crazy stuff. You know, practice, you know, you
see a different animal.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
And that's what I tell people. You think about what
they doing in the game. You want to see him
in practice. Oh my god, Like did he just did
he just do that?
Speaker 6 (27:35):
Off the porch? I'm talking we rookies, we same class
off the porch. I'm like, you sure this guy in
the same crazy like you rookie too? Like he killed me.
Speaker 1 (27:46):
You got to think, Joe, I'm gonna ask you.
Speaker 5 (27:50):
Obviously, with the next game coming up heavy based on
I'm not not sure if you guys have watched Field already,
any type of homework. Are there anything coming up in
this next game that you guys think you have to
worry about or that you have to be sure of
to make sure that you don't allow to ensure that
you guys played just as what did you did against
my Bengals? What do you think you have to worry
(28:11):
about in this next week's opponent offensive?
Speaker 6 (28:14):
Yeah, For one, when you think about just a Mike
Tomlin coach team, you think about gritty, very physical, discipline,
discipline football team. So you know, then you add that
with Aaron Rodgers, a twenty one year vet who's elite
with his passion ability in his football like you, you know,
(28:36):
it's gonna be hard for us to find a way
for them to make mistakes. So you know, on our end,
we can't make mistakes, So that's gonna be a bit.
A big key to the game is executing and not
giving them easy stuff, not missing missing assignments, missing blitzes
and messing up coverages, making sure everybody in their spots,
and executing the game plan because you know, those two
(28:56):
very experienced people you're going against, and you can't afford
to give him any anything to keep them in the
game because once that that fourth quarter hit. You know,
that's when they superpower start to show. But yeah, they're
very physical team, but we if we take it to them. Man,
from the get go, I think will be in the
right spot.
Speaker 2 (29:13):
What is the biggest difference between coach Floorance and your
previous defensive coordinator?
Speaker 3 (29:19):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (29:19):
Man, I think for for for me and just getting
the no flow over these years. I mean I was
with the other defensive coordinator for a year, but with
flow and getting a knowing this over these years, I
think it's just his ability to understand not only players
but the game and put those two together, like he
understands what this defense does well and what each player
(29:43):
can do in this defense well. And it's not Yeah,
it's not. It's not a matter of having a player
who's great just because you know the stats and the
combine says, is this because he fits this defense and
his abilities will highlight very well. And it's almost like
a receiver. You're not gonna put a slid receiver at
the X. He ain't gonna get open. So you know,
(30:05):
he understands how to how to move us around and
have us do what we like to do really well,
but still make it look different.
Speaker 5 (30:12):
You see what he said that a Josh, if I
can get offensive coordinators right to understand exactly what you just.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
Said, they have they have egos. They have egos, so.
Speaker 5 (30:24):
They just call the plays and expect to put the
receivers in certain positions and just make go, go, make
the play, make it work. Instead of understanding each player
who you got, understanding what you got, understanding what they're
good at, putting them in positions to make plays where
it comes to their strengths and not the weaknesses, then
the game is simplified.
Speaker 1 (30:45):
If you just do that.
Speaker 6 (30:47):
Yeah, but we will even play We'll even play more
people than normally. You know, we'll rotate, especially in that
front seven. We're rotating guys on different persons down the distances,
whether it's passing downs, rundowns, And if you could play
the run, you're gonna be in on rundowns, if you
can rush the passes, you're gonna be in on pass downs,
if you can dropping the zones and we need to
(31:07):
you know, it's one of those situations you're gonna be in.
And uh, I think that's the best part about it. Man.
You never see a guy in our defense doing something
you do feel comfortable doing. And uh, I mean when
you're playing fast and you know, you clear head and
you make.
Speaker 1 (31:20):
Plays put you gotta put guys in position to succeed.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
And like you said, Josh, a lot of time, look credit,
oh yo, we it's my scheme, it's my offense, is
my defense. Nah, you you you find, you know what
you find the you build your scheme around the players
you have.
Speaker 6 (31:37):
Yeah, yeah, we sit. I say, we switch schemes every year, man,
besides our life base, go to plays. It's been a
different scheme every year, man, And it's just because we
have different eleven guys out there, so you gotta switch
it up.
Speaker 5 (31:52):
Damn man, what I wish everybody else thought like that,
especially the coaches man calling the plays. But Josh, most
of the time, I can only a test when I
was playing no week the week. And I'm just saying
some of the complaints that we hear from other players
on other teams. Yeah, and they want to do it,
they wait, and we could only run the route this way, So.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Obviously you can.
Speaker 5 (32:11):
You you restrict players from having the freedom to do
what they do best because Okay, I.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
Got an ego, it's my system works.
Speaker 5 (32:19):
It worked at the other place I was at, so
if I come here, it should work here too.
Speaker 6 (32:23):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (32:23):
Look with coach, if you take an uber at the time,
a taxi, as long as when his back foot hit
you where you're supposed to be, all give a damn
what you do to get.
Speaker 6 (32:33):
There, that's all that matters. Chivis Kelsey, all of them,
it ain't. It ain't got a lot. They gonna look
the same. But I would be when the quarterback red,
I'm gonna be where I'm supposed to be. Let me
ask you this.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
Other than other than the weather, what's the biggest difference
between Miami and Minnesota? Because he talking about eighty five
to Sunday and then you get minus twenty and three
feet of snow.
Speaker 6 (32:57):
God weather obviously the big difference. But I would say
just the culture. Man. You know Miami, you know that's
that fast. Yeah, man, like, it ain't no time to
just sit back until Man, you sit back. Your phone
ring here it's somewhere else. It's motion. It's something in Minnesota. Man,
it's it's it's really slow motion. Commute like yeah, slow motion.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
Man.
Speaker 6 (33:19):
It's very family oriented, uh, you know, very sit back, relaxed.
I mean when it get cold out here and it
starts snowing, you ain't going nowhere. You ain't want you.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Don't want to practice at home.
Speaker 6 (33:30):
Yeah, yeah, it's it's just you know, get home, you know,
find your hobbies that you like to do, and you
know do that every day. So, I mean, I think
it's been good for my mentor I mean, especially living
both lives, you know what I mean. I've been in
Miami my whole life, and then for me to be
up here now, I think it's definitely good to just
see both sides and being able for my family to
see both sides as well. I think that's really you
(33:52):
have you have you tried the Juicy Lucy's. Yeah, that
was one of the first things I did. And it's
a competition, yes, so I went to vote. I went
to vote.

Speaker 2 (38:55):
Everything.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
We we opened the dome, we close it right behind us.
The guys what we do know that eight first off
before you even started.
Speaker 5 (39:02):
But I want to take congratulations congratulations obviously your resurgence
out there in Kansas City.
Speaker 1 (39:07):
Sometimes we need situations that allow us when.
Speaker 5 (39:09):
We get those opportunities to prevail and show the talents
that we do have and possessed. Boy, you showed the
f out last game, boy, and all all I ask
you to do is to continue stream them, stream them
things alone. Stream alone. They ain't gonna be able to
deny you. They can't deny you. Yeah, yes, so, but
go ahead, I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
Take over that. I got excited. Come a dog, my
dog in the field.
Speaker 2 (39:32):
Go ahead. What what's been the biggest I mean seemingly,
I look, I know you had a couple of injuries,
your collar bone, and it seemingly you couldn't get on
the feeling when you got in the field.
Speaker 1 (39:42):
It was hard for you to stay healthy.
Speaker 2 (39:43):
Now you get an opportunity for for your talents to flourish.
We know you had the speed, and it seems like
Andy and my homeboy, you his favorite target right now.
It seems what has allowed you to thrive this year
in Kansas City where in years before it didn't go
so well.
Speaker 4 (40:00):
Really basically just getting in the rhythm, man, you know,
just getting them opportunity, getting them reps you know, being
out there, you know, staying healthy, you know, getting those
reps and challenging myself in practice. Man, I'm trying to
get better every day at the little things, you know,
some of the things that I'm not good at, you
know what I'm saying. And here in KC, Man, they're
very they let me know what they really want for me. Man,
Pat Man. You know, having Pat at quarterback, Man, he
(40:23):
makes it a whole lot easier for me. For me,
so I'm out there just running, knowing where the ball
gonna be at, Man, and it's just making routine plays.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
When you got your opportunity to come over from New England,
what what was the role? What did they tell you
they were looking for in a receiver when they brought
you on?
Speaker 4 (40:40):
Man, I mean they didn't even have to tell me. Man.
You see the room. You got guys like xavierl.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
Worthy.
Speaker 4 (40:44):
You know what I'm saying, Hollywood, Juju, Rashi Rice, you
know what I'm saying, a bunch of playmakers. So Man,
all I just had to do is just, you know
what I'm saying, just find my little puzzle in there
and see where I can fit at. But it really
wasn't hard though they like speed.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
And y'all got y'all got in the y'all got it
to burn now, y'all You and Xavier and Rashid Rice, Hollywood, Brian,
I think Hollywood ran low for three.
Speaker 1 (41:07):
Y'all got a life. Nice little relay.
Speaker 4 (41:09):
Teams we're lining up with whoever.
Speaker 1 (41:13):
But what has it been like?
Speaker 2 (41:14):
Okay, you get there and all the names that you
mentioned have all played with Mahomes first before. Now you
get there and it seems that he's looking for you
in situations you have one the ball popped it out
Mahon right pers rolls and came right back to you.
That had to make you feel good because this is
(41:35):
Patrick Mahomes, super Bowl Champ, MVP, and he got that
kind of confidence in me to come back to me.
Speaker 4 (41:41):
I man, Shoot, we work out of that practice. Man,
We're doing long drive, dail, we're throwing deep balls every
other place. You know, I'm saying a thousand times in practice.
So he got a lot of faith in me. So
it's just be basically going out there and just making
him right.
Speaker 2 (41:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (41:56):
And the funny thing about it too, the time when
you got a quarterback like that, man, a quarterback that
has expectations. Once he trusts you and starts throwing you
the ball like that, especially on deep plays back to
back like that, and they finna keep coming, They fin
to come. And the funny thing about it is you
always got to be on point and always got to
be alert and understanding. Regardless of what the situation is
(42:17):
and what's going on or what the reading may be.
He might come to you just because in his mind,
what hell the last time I needed to play? I
know I can count on a zero for sure, and
just subconsciously he gonna come back to you again. So, man, dude,
I'm happy for you. You're in a great situation because
the conversation that people will continue to have about the
Kansas City Chiefs week in and week out is the
(42:39):
struggles at the receiver position.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
And the only thing to talk.
Speaker 5 (42:42):
About now is you and your emergency of now being
one of those that can help them win games.
Speaker 1 (42:48):
And I just want you to stay on that track.
Speaker 5 (42:50):
And once you open that door, all we got to
do is clothes behind you.
Speaker 6 (42:53):
Yeah, That's all we got to do.
Speaker 1 (42:54):
It closes behind you. But go ahead, go ahead, look.
Speaker 2 (42:59):
You guys start. Oh and to Lake, you had an
opportunity to seem like you're gonna win the game against
Philay and you win the game again, you played the Chargers,
and now you go to New York and do you
feel this was the game that's gonna get you guys
back on track? Because see where do I excuse me?
We're not used to seeing Kansas City start the season.
Oh and two we always like, hey, this is the
(43:20):
first time that in a long time. Can't see it.
Not really favorite to get to the super Bowl, you know,
win the division, they're not favorite to win the AFC.
You hear all the talk, how have you been able
to block the note? How have you guys been able
to block the noise out? Focus on what you can
control and then go win this game, Win this game
last Sunday.
Speaker 4 (43:39):
Man, just going in there and just going and play
CAC football. Man, just letting it lose, having fun, showing
our personality. I know, the offense we kind of got
off to a little slow start, but just going out
there and just keep on punching at it. You know
what I'm saying, And we know what we can do.
Speaker 2 (43:53):
Man.
Speaker 4 (43:53):
We got the players in the room, man, we got
the coaching staff, man, and we all just believed and
we came out that second half just to you know,
finish off and come, I'll come out with a win
for sure.
Speaker 5 (44:01):
Yeah, you know what, And Ty, when I think about it,
I think about it. We think about the Chiefs of
last year and we're talking about the start and being
zero and two or whatever at the beginning of the season.
But you have to think those close games last year
that they had. This year, they won those games. They
won those games. They still had the same struggle, but
they just happened to win those games as opposed to
this year.
Speaker 1 (44:21):
Everything now in their favor.
Speaker 5 (44:23):
So now they're having it dig themself out a whole
similar to how another team that we know about that
started off good this year. Now we're in trouble, you know,
losing our quarterback. But and I keep saying, as long
as they got fifteen, they're gonna be alright. So all
the talk about the struggles that they have in yeah, boy,
I'm gonna say it every time every every week. Boy
throw the ball to eighty boy. That's it, period, It
(44:44):
ain't it ain't even gott to be no deep ball.
It all comes down to you too. And having that mentality.
Hell if I catch me and it hit you. I
catch me as playing, I should be able to take
that eighty some yards.
Speaker 2 (44:53):
So you know, Todd, we think about putting on a
nightcap NFL's fastest man. You know, are we thinking about
getting We thinking about getting Cheetah, thinking about getting you?

years ago. We ain't gonna speak on that.
Speaker 5 (45:27):
I ain't want to embarrass you then because I don't
want to take your confidence because I'm still I'm still
running like that. But it's a focus. It's a forty

No, these are all cheatahs, no tortoises. So if I
gave it, so we this off season, you train so
I mean what, we take five guys, so we know
Cheetah has been the fastest guy for a long per
the time. Whether or not he's still that remains to
be seen. We got you, we got a senior worldly.
(46:06):
I don't know. Oh yeah, okay, wooling, we got a wooling.
Uh didn't somebody run for two this year? I don't know.
So we're gonna take all the guys. We're gonna take six,
seven guys, and we're gonna what y'all want to run?

Speaker 2 (46:54):
What I'm saying, we're gonna put hollow. We're gonna put
Hollywood in there. We can get in Hollywood.
Speaker 5 (46:57):
Wait a minute, man, you're tying. You talk about player
that's make it. Come on, we can't disrespect it. But
talk about some hundred thousand it got at least be
a million. That kind of money they make.
Speaker 2 (47:04):
Oh joe, you see how excited guys get when they
when they get a refunk, get a fuffle, recovery or
pick and they're gonna get two hundred dollars.
Speaker 1 (47:11):
That's in a pot.
Speaker 2 (47:12):
So what you think. It's not the money, it's the
title of being the world the fastest man. NBC Sports
didn't pay those guys, didn't pay Darryl Green and Rod
Woodson and herschel Walker Willie got on a different time.
Speaker 1 (47:25):
It was the title. Okay, well we're in a different time.
The boy make a twenty thirty mill a year.
Speaker 2 (47:31):
Oh joe, how much you how much you think the
fast You want to be known as the best at something?
I'm the fastest, ain't no doubt, it ain't no well
I read this time, I read that time.
Speaker 1 (47:42):
It's now.
Speaker 2 (47:43):
When we lined it up and the title for the
NFL's fastest man was on the line. All I know
is I cast the line first. Now, all that stuff
I didn't read one, I didn't run.
Speaker 3 (47:52):
No.
Speaker 5 (47:53):
Oh, when the when the But listen, I'm just telling
you what happens is when you when you when you
add money at the end of the finish line, it
adds a different kind of pressure as opposed to just
being the fastest man. Oh, I'm running for a million dollars.
That does something. You just said. They make thirty million,
so what's a million dollars to come?
Speaker 1 (48:13):
I'm not in season.
Speaker 5 (48:14):
You mean I got a chance to make me a
extra spending money.
Speaker 4 (48:19):
Yeah, let me ask.
Speaker 2 (48:21):
Your question, what you think that guy can make if
he's the NFL's fastest man. That's his official type.
Speaker 5 (48:26):
He's already the fastest man obviously if if you already.
Speaker 1 (48:29):
Rank who said that? Who said that?
Speaker 4 (48:32):
Okay, you line it up until you line it up.
Speaker 1 (48:36):
Exactly.
Speaker 6 (48:38):
I get it.
Speaker 2 (48:39):
Nor Lines was the world's fastest man coming out of
the Olympics. Now we got a new fastest man, Oblique Seville.
So we got seven guys lined up. This is for
the NFL's fastest man type. I like it. Hey, Hey,
t seem like he diedb He's like, hey, see that's
(49:01):
what I'm talking about. See that what I'm hey, He
ain't dunk in no smoke. He said, hey, light it up,
Hollywood Savior, Cheatah, because you know, cheating Cheatah been claiming
this title and writing the soul for at least the
last seven eight years. Taekwan So, I don't know Cheatah,
Cheatah can get out? He running let me get hey. Hey,
(49:21):
I said, we saw running that ten one, five and
he got our quiz fourteen.
Speaker 4 (49:25):
I stumbled too, now out the break?
Speaker 2 (49:27):
Yeah you did, you did? But I've tried to figure
out how did how did they round it up? How
did they round it up that much? Okay? How you
if you want to say, okay, four two one to
four two three, okay, I give you that. How you
going from four two one to four two eight four
two seven?
Speaker 4 (49:44):
I don't know, you gotta ask, No, I was just
going I thought I had me an island or something?
You feel me?
Speaker 2 (49:56):
Did you expect so when you were when you were
going through your train, wherever you work? Did you where'd
you work at? Did you go to Florida? Do you
work at Michael Johnson's camp work me.
Speaker 4 (50:08):
We was all down at training. We was clocking like
four twos while we was training.
Speaker 2 (50:12):
Real okay, so you you were expecting to run his
fast because everybody seemed shocked that you ran that fast
at your height.
Speaker 1 (50:21):
So they're like, we expect them to go fast.
Speaker 2 (50:23):
But I think when you dipped down the four to three,
they're like, hold on, we got to go back and
look at some tape because it didn't maybe it didn't
look that fast on tape. Because now you run that
fast and it doesn't look that fast on tape, they
got to go back and look at something like what
do we miss?
Speaker 4 (50:41):
It's a les man. My legs real long, so.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
It don't look like you moved.
Speaker 6 (50:46):
I'm moving.
Speaker 1 (50:48):
He's been he's been running like that man since he
was a jit man.
Speaker 4 (50:51):
MGS heard me.
Speaker 1 (50:55):
He ran with my daughter at Miami Guardens.
Speaker 2 (50:59):
So you were track in high school right all my life?
So what what was your hundred and two? What was
your best hundred, best two hundred?
Speaker 4 (51:06):
My best two hundred, I would say was I don't know,
twenty point high though it was high. Twenty point high, yeah,
I didn't When you get fast at the hunt like
My start got faster when I was in college. Like
my stronger Taylor, I got stronger. Yeah, big laurd them
came with David Runda. We started doing like the lyfting
(51:28):
liftings and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (51:30):
Yeah that that power clean that when I only got
that first, because like the hundred, I was really like,
I was more like a four hundred runner.
Speaker 4 (51:38):
The four hundred on the quarterhole give me so I'm
able to run them deat balls to better best.
Speaker 2 (51:45):
You got when you go. Look, you guys win the
game on Sunday, but it doesn't get any easier because
you got a big game coming up again with the
Baltimore Ravens, and you know what those guys represent. And
they lost the other night and it wasn't like a
close game. The score might say thirty to thirty eight,
but they got beat up, and you know they're gonna
(52:07):
come in. And you guys seem to have their numbers,
especially uh uh and the red well you have the number.
I think Lamar is only beating Patrick Mahomes once. So
you guys just started. Y'all play Monday night. Now y'all
play Sunday Monday night and Sunday night Sunday so you guys, okay,
so it's a regular week. You guys are you got hey?
I know Andy got up at the boards and say,
we got this team coming in. We know what they represent,
(52:28):
they know what we represent. We played each other a
number of time over the years. What's your mindset? What's
Taekwan Thornton's mindset? Going into a game like this?
Speaker 4 (52:36):
Just be the best version of talk on thornon Get
ready for a fight. You know what I'm saying, Take
a punch, Give a punch, keep on going for four quarters.
Speaker 1 (52:44):
You know, they like to play a lot of man
car I'm just saying I've been putting out. It's so
funny time he just said. They like to pay a
lot of man coverages.
Speaker 5 (52:53):
Right now against the past, they ranked the twenty ninth
in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (52:58):
Look they I don't know what they run. I'm just
telling you what they like.
Speaker 2 (53:01):
They believe they they say, we like our corners against
your receivers. That's what we like.
Speaker 1 (53:06):
Whatever we are, we are, but that's what we like.
We like this matchup, So doubt.
Speaker 5 (53:10):
It ain't a good matchup based on the statistics in
the rankings.
Speaker 1 (53:13):
That's all I'm saying. That's all.
Speaker 2 (53:18):
Look as O Joe said, they're struggling defensively. They gave
up two hundred and sixty four points in the fourth quarter.
They gave up twenty two points in the fourth quarter,
and then Detroit got whatever they want. They ran the
ball how they wanted. They for did a great job.
Jared God didn't get it. But you know that's not
the version of the Baltimore Ravens you're gonna get. So
(53:40):
what's what's your expectation from the Ravens.
Speaker 4 (53:42):
I mean, that's a good football team over there. They
got a lot of good players, but a good players
too as well. So like I said, man, we know
it's gonna be a fight. No, we're just gonna boot
play CAC football.
Speaker 2 (53:51):
Man, that's what we're gonna do. Good, go outdown, we're
gonna play. And your brief tenure in the NFL. Who's
some of the tougher toughers that you've had to go up.
Speaker 4 (54:01):
Against when I was in New England? Who I had
to face? That's pretty good. Sausa is pretty good. When
I was out there in them playing against I was
seeing him two times a year with him long arms.
Speaker 6 (54:16):
Who else.
Speaker 2 (54:19):
Have you had to go against? Stanley, you had to
go against pants or tin have you had to go against.
Speaker 4 (54:23):
No, I don't think I really went against Pat like that.
Speaker 2 (54:25):
You know.
Speaker 4 (54:25):
I grew up playing against Pat so, but I ain't
really I didn't seehim in the lead yet. But Stanley,
I didn't see Stanley, so I just say saw partly
the only one that yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1 (54:39):
Yeah, but you know I'm looking at this. I'm looking
at it now.
Speaker 2 (54:42):
You theoretically was supposed to be the fastest guy because
John Ross ran four too two and you had four
two one, So you like feel like I got this.
Speaker 5 (54:51):
I put my chades on and I was like, yo,
they played, they played with us, So.
Speaker 2 (55:00):
Had had had the four to one stuck, would you
have run another forty that I did?
Speaker 4 (55:06):
So when they told me I had fourty one, I
put on my shade.
Speaker 1 (55:10):
That was it.
Speaker 2 (55:11):
Okay, Yeah, it wasn't nothing else to do. I like,
bro the speed. Y'all, y'all see protein. So did you running?
Did you run your product? You said, y'all, don saw
nothing of this speed. I don't even show y'all know, y'all, y'all, y'all,
y'all get greeted. So what what what was your vertical.
(55:33):
What were you said? Because normally when somebody runs that fast,
when you run that fast, you're explosive. You got a
high vertical, you got a high standing loone jump. So
were you ten and a half eleven feet standing alone jump?
Speaker 1 (55:44):
Were you thirty eight forty.
Speaker 2 (55:46):
On the Verden Man?
Speaker 4 (55:47):
That's a minute ago. I don't remember none of them numbers. Yeah, bro,
I remember brow six.
Speaker 1 (55:55):
I remember my style. I joined like a forty five.
Speaker 5 (55:57):
I think forty four, forty five, forty five vertical.
Speaker 4 (56:00):
To be honest, the whole time I was training, I
was really just learning about that forty I'm trying to
get really that record. But I think I jumped good
though I think I ain't jumped bad. I think I
jumped good.
Speaker 2 (56:11):
So you so you knew the record was four two two,
and so all you guys were down there training pushing
each other like, hey, somebody from this group group need
to get that record.
Speaker 1 (56:21):
I nominated me.
Speaker 4 (56:22):
It was me, Tariq wooland Caitlin Barnes. He was the
well him and Wiland was like the two fast dbs.
We was working.
Speaker 1 (56:30):
Yeah, hey, Calean Barnes fast like that?
Speaker 6 (56:33):
Yeah he fast?
Speaker 4 (56:34):
He cut you fast.
Speaker 2 (56:36):
Yeah, I think he didn't he run something? Didn't he
run something for three?
Speaker 4 (56:39):
Four two five?
Speaker 2 (56:44):
Man? Man? Yeah, that that's that's that's fans for no reason.
I mean you blinking, he gone what Taekwan? Thanks for
joining us, man, We really appreciate it. Congratulations on success.
Continue to continue to build on what you got going on.
Speaker 1 (56:59):
Don't let up. This is just the start.
Speaker 2 (57:01):
This is what they envision when they took you in
the second round, the type of player that you are
right now, the type of player that you're becoming. This
is what those teams envision when they saw you at
the combine and they saw you at the University of Baylor.
So continue success, stay healthy, and come back and talk
to us down the road.
Speaker 1 (57:17):
Hey, b get it. Appreciate you boys.
