00:00 - You know, I think I've continued to grow my game,
00:02 show I can get open on different levels of the field
00:05 and make plays at different levels.
00:06 And then just, you know,
00:07 building chemistry with the quarterbacks and stuff like that.
00:09 - You talked a lot about that with Anthony.
00:12 Where do you think your connection is with him today
00:14 versus like the first day you were out here?
00:16 - Oh, it's way ahead than what it was.
00:18 And, you know, I think it's still got a lot of progress
00:20 to go, but you know, that's where we got,
00:22 we got a couple more weeks till the season.
00:23 And then obviously the season is a long season
00:25 and we continue to build on that.
00:27 - That play in Buffalo, I know you were probably hoping
00:31 you'd come down with a catch,
00:32 but is that kind of a moment,
00:33 still, is it part of you that gets excited
00:35 for like what this could look like
00:36 once you kind of iron out the details?
00:38 - Yeah, for sure.
00:39 Just cause you know, like knowing myself there,
00:41 like I should have made the catch
00:43 and I just knew like my route was not even like
00:47 the best route, but just the ball was such a beautiful ball.
00:49 Like, and it was just like putting a perfect spot.
00:51 So just knowing like that he could do that.
00:53 And even if I don't create the most separation on a route,
00:55 you know, like I did there,
00:57 he's just gonna be able to put the ball
00:59 just where I can catch it.
01:00 And I just got to come down with the next time.
01:01 - You guys are going to obviously play
01:04 with whoever is out there,
01:05 but is it a relief now to already know
01:06 who the starter is at quarterback?
01:09 - Yeah, no, it's definitely nice to know,
01:10 like, you know, especially when you go out here and practice
01:13 you get, we're going to be working with like
01:15 with the ones that we were working
01:16 with the same quarterback every time.
01:17 So you can really know like,
01:18 this is the guy who I got to get my timing down with.
01:20 I got to get most of my reps with him.
01:22 You know, you also work with other quarterbacks too,
01:24 but it's definitely good to know like,
01:25 this is the guy that I gotta learn how he throws and get on the same page with him.
