Speaker 3 (00:57):
So have you had a chance to talk to Campbell
at all? And just like you know, tiger to tiger.
Speaker 5 (01:04):
No, I haven't got a chance. I want to catch
him in the build. I'm sure his phone going crazy. Yeah,
there's a bunch of contexts and so I definitely wanted
to catch him in the building and just obviously get
good introduction into each other. Obviously I kept up with
him through his time and other shoes, so super excited
to have him.
Speaker 6 (01:16):
Did you have any relationship with any of the guys
you know? No, it's five years removed.
Speaker 1 (01:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (01:21):
Yeah, I didn't get a chance to go back get
go back obviously and be with the team as much
as I wanted to. But I'm super familiar with the guys,
so i always get get a chance to watch the game.
So I'm huge fans of everybody that's getting chance.
Speaker 6 (01:33):
I know these guys are going to have some more
sche I know you'll have scheme related questions, but I
want to ask you specifically.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
He doesn't know yet.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
They haven't started, Okay.
Speaker 6 (01:41):
I questions real quick though with the LSU stuff because
we talked a lot with Will and then he has
like the number seven. It's like that playmaker thing that
started with Patrick Peterson.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
You were eighteen. Isn't that a significant number for LSU two?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (01:55):
Can you explain that a little bit?
Speaker 1 (01:56):
No? I most definitely so eighteen.
Speaker 5 (01:58):
I was I was voted on upon the team, the
team and guy and staff around the building and just
it definitely it solidifies and it kind of shows and
me and another guy, little Christian Berry, I was center.
We both we shared it that year, but it just
kind of exemplifies the leadership and the character that that
the L s U Tigers kind of try to represent
(02:18):
and we try to implement obviously just going through the program.
So obviously it was a super super appreciative thing and
grateful to be able to just receive that. Called me
off guard a little bit and not saying that I
didn't feel like I was truly available capable of it.
But when you think of it, man, it's just a
great guys. They got a chance to wear that and
you don't take that, take that, take that for granted.
(02:38):
So to be able to be a part of that history,
to wear that number just and always be ish and Stoneman,
I'm super grateful to be a part of that.
Speaker 6 (02:46):
I love those traditions. I'm a stucker for those. Yeah,
absolute college number thing that you know, like William A
gatting this fifty five with Junior say us those traditions.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
I got an issue with that dual carter, but he
did right. That's for another that's for another show.
Speaker 6 (03:01):
He basically said, I shot my shot.
Speaker 5 (03:05):
That was that was a full court shot.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Good way to put it.
Speaker 7 (03:12):
Paul's being modest by the way he loved you coming
out of the draft, and when we signed you as
a free agent, Paul is like he finally came back around.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
Take in front of me being ay, I.
Speaker 7 (03:29):
Just I did want to ask you about some of
the early impressions of coach Rable and coach Trell Williams
and all the guys and everything. What are your early
impressions since you've been in the building of the coaching man.
Speaker 5 (03:41):
Super appreciated to be around coaching staff like this, A
lot of former players, a lot of guys who know
the game real well be able to teach in a
way that allows you to implement your.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Own style and still get the job done.
Speaker 5 (03:53):
So obviously, with very well being the ex player, a
guy who's playing my position, who's who's one who's who
has some success and longevity in the league, he understands
that the job can be done in many ways. You know,
obviously there's a certain style and identity that we want
to play with, but obviously there's a technique that there
a lot of everybody. Obviously when it comes to the
physical skills set and just kind of what you possess
(04:15):
and kind of how you see the game. You kind
of just everybody kind of has their own way of
going about it, so and he allows that. He allows
the room to kind of just be yourself and kind
of go out there and play ball.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
So super preacher to to have that and have that that.
Speaker 5 (04:31):
That longer lease as you may say, to kind of
go out there and to be dominant. And it's been
great so far. Man, he's been such a huge help. Him,
Coach Williams, my coach, coach Smitty, just kind of just
being there step by step. Man, I feel like I'm
kind of being just that annoying pest a little bit,
just asking so many questions, just kind of especially the vaibel.
I mean, you've done it, you know what I'm saying,
Like you've done what I'm trying to do. You've been
(04:53):
next to obviously another great pass rusher itself and kind
of just being dominant. So you know what it takes
to win championship and get there. So and I'm soaking
in everything about this moment and I love everything that
came with it.
Speaker 7 (05:05):
I've ever heard that he's so hyper detailed that like
he'll have something about like your hand placement or your
footwork or some of minute detail.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Has he done anything like that with you yet?
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Definitely? Definitely. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:17):
So it's just hand placement, like as you're speaking of
pad level, like he'll just we'll be in admitted any
drill and he saw something that was in special teams.
He's like, hold on, hold, let me step to the side,
and kind of just I can't get it off my mind.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
I got to show you. I got to make sure
you know the right way.
Speaker 5 (05:30):
And because it will be a failure on both our
parts and his part, he feel like itself. You know
what I'm saying, if he don't give us the right
technique and the right you know what I'm saying, right
skill set or the tool bag to go out there.
Speaker 1 (05:39):
And out dominant perform.
Speaker 5 (05:40):
So and he's been super super critical in detailed when
it comes to the minor things and what you should be. Obviously,
it starts out, it starts to so when everything's kind
of get tough or whatever, we hit our adversity and
whenever it comes during the season, we just go back
to this time of the year when we just get
dig into our foundation that we building our fundamentals and
everything and take care of yourself.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
I want to ask you about last year, I mean,
your most productive year in the league.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
What kind of came together last year for you and
how do you feel like you can build on it
here in New England this year. Definitely, I'm just getting
a chance just to take in the nuggets that I've
been gaining all over the years. Man, each I've gotten
a chance to play next to a pro bowler and
Josh Allen Man, I've gotten checks and play too. I
think a future Hall of Famer in Max Crosby. So
each each person that I'm getting a chance to be,
(06:24):
I'm getting great coaches and I'm just taking nuggets. I'm
putting them all in my toolbox and I'm just trying
to figure out which way is my way and that
can get me to have the success and for personal
and team success. So last year, getting a chance to
have that opportunity to go out there and perform it
definitely helps. Having a dominant past rettront opposite in and
gain that attention where you have these one on one
battles and then you just have to go out there
(06:45):
and just be better than the man across you. And
I feel like my coaching and my preparation has definitely
put me in a way of walking out dominating my
opponent in any one on one matchup. So when it
came to last year, it was definitely just a sense
of this man, understand which opportunity is and go produce.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
So I was super excited for it.
Speaker 5 (07:01):
I didn't make sure I didn't take anything anything for granted,
and I just went out there and tried to give
everything I had.
Speaker 6 (07:06):
Were the differences in the schemes that you had in
Jacksonville as opposed to last year?
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Yeah, Yeah, definitely a difference. Last year was a four
to three defense.
Speaker 5 (07:14):
Jacksonville was a multiple defense, so it was a lot
of outsiur linebackers kind of like somebody's going somebody's not
a hybrid. They played out, but I mean even still
just kind of nowadays, everybody's kind of playing more subfront,
you know, to just kind of getting down to the
flid down the front. But how it was just last
year in Vegas, it's like, man, there's no even thinking
about it.
Speaker 1 (07:32):
You got the best pass rushing in the league.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
They felled in Max Crosby, and you have another pass
rusher and they feel like it's.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
Dominant as well that can win in one on ones.
Speaker 5 (07:40):
Let's start with their and that'll erect the game itself
and we'll kind of figure out everything else on the
back end. So obviously the team's success win is where
we wanted to be. But when it comes to I
feel like the past rush production that it definitely produced
a lot for sure.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Do you like coming off the left or right side?
Speaker 1 (07:56):
What do you prefer? I like getting to the quarterback?
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (07:59):
All right, good answer, matter, just know where I'm at. Okay,
off the field. Have you had a chance to settle
into New England yet? How familiar were you with the
area before you got here, and what's your impressions of
living in New England so far.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
I'm still justin. I'm still adjusting. I'm trying to figure
it out.
Speaker 5 (08:16):
Definitely trying to figure out the weather here. I think
that's just something I'm just gonna have to just accept
whatever the day comes with. But then I'm still adjusted,
just trying to get familiar with the areas.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Around and kind of where to be at and not be.
Speaker 5 (08:32):
But everybody's been super nice and definitely accepting here, and
I'm super appreciative. I think I get a chance to
go to my first Celtics game today. So I'm looking
forward to seeing what that atmosphere is like and kind
of just.
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Don't mess around.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Have you watched that Celtics City documentary that's on HBO?
Speaker 1 (08:54):
No, how don't get a chance to do well?
Speaker 3 (08:55):
If you wanted a good history of the Celtics, I
would recommend it.
Speaker 1 (09:01):
I'm gonna have to definitely put that on the team.
Are you Are you an NBA fan? Yeah? Yeah, I'm
a huge You.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
Would be in the NBA if you weren't playing in
the NFL. I assume like all the rest of the players.
Speaker 4 (09:11):
Yea, since you.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Never lived here, I'm assuming Celtics. What's who's your team
from Houston? So I'm always rocking with the Rockets.
Speaker 5 (09:18):
So we took it to yesterday, but we got a
game tomorrow, man, so looking forward to see how.
Speaker 1 (09:23):
We come out.
Speaker 3 (09:23):
Okay, I was then, I was there.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
He got one of ours an email coaching who was sidebar?
Speaker 1 (09:35):
That was never mind?
Speaker 4 (09:37):
Just like three rawlins. He was playing for Atlanta, went,
I thought it was Houston.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Never mind.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
We got apologize them about that. Yeah, that's tough keeping
the dream, that's all.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Oh yeah, t mac man, come.
Speaker 2 (09:50):
On, I'll ask him one more football.
Speaker 6 (09:53):
Has Evans drag us Downe's.
Speaker 7 (10:00):
A double swipe a lot, and I'm just curious, you know, what,
what do you like so much about that move?
Speaker 2 (10:04):
And what's it like? Sack and Patrick Mahomes.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Seeing you're going. But I mean, don't it's a it's
a great move.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
I think it's an opportunity to get a chance to
get your shoulders towards the quarterback and get you to
see the quarterback. That's the biggest thing part of the
past sorts and kind of just knowing obviously you're going
to get somebody who's back towards quarterback. He never knows
where he's really stepping up, stepping back moving. So once
you kind of get those shoulders and those hips turned
towards the quarterback, and that kind of puts you in
a great position how you want to go power or
(10:40):
go outside of still or kind of take it back
inside wherever you may go.
Speaker 1 (10:43):
So it gives you a lot of options. For sure.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
I think the Chiefs they signed the tackle and they
drafted the tackle because you kept on, we gotta we
gotta do something.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
To fix that.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Yeah, for sure, Well that's great, Listen, I know you've
got other things to do your busy, but we really
appreciate you coming, and now that you know we're here,
anytime you want to stop it.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Yeah, I'm definitely getting chance to come by here more.
I do appreciate that. Man, we do restaurant.
Speaker 3 (11:08):
Reviews, movie reviews, whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
I need the restaurant list for sure. I need to
get that.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
Kind of start from there and give me all the
Boston history. I'm starting with the what's it called Celtic
Celtic City. Yeah, I'm gonna start with that. I'm gonna
have to maybe catch it on the plane ride and
kind of see it.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
It's good. I think it's like eight nine episodes. Keep
you busy, No, that's good work. That's good work for sure. Okay, hey,
thank you, thank you. No, I appreciate you guys, Thank
you all so much. Thanks
