00:00 It felt amazing today. I mean the soreness is definitely kicking in but
00:05 especially with the first day in pads yesterday. But you know I stay the same
00:11 speed and I could feel other guys slowing down so it's fun out there.
00:14 Yeah. Oh no my foot's feeling great. I mean like I said I'm gonna be dealing
00:22 with soreness that is it's actually went down so much I hardly even think about
00:27 it these days but just normal groin and hips and you know normal startup kind of
00:32 soreness.
00:34 Oh no I I have confidence in my body that it's gonna it's gonna be okay as
00:46 long as I continue to take care of it. So as long as I'm recovering well
00:51 stretching and staying on top of my things I feel confident with going full
00:55 speed. Just some muscle fatigue and soreness I'm not afraid of anything
00:59 pulling or anything like that.
01:02 I mean TD having him back is or not back but having him back there is
01:13 unbelievable. At his age the way he can move around the field it's it's it's fun
01:18 to watch and to have him as a leader it's he's giving me crap about not
01:23 running off the field which I don't get enough so it's good but it's just good
01:28 to have a leader like that and to see a guy like I said of who's been in the
01:34 league for so long sorry I got something in my throat. It's just impressive to see
01:39 how hard he comes out to work every day.
01:42 I think maybe not positionally or technique wise but you know just how to
01:50 be to be a pro what everybody preaches how to take care of yourself I mean
01:54 obviously he had to do something right to be in the league I'm not exactly sure
01:58 how long it is what is it 13 14 15 yeah I undershot it. Thank you.
02:05 Yeah so obviously he knows how to take care of his body he knows the in and out
02:10 ins and outs of the league so it's a good it's he's a good guy to you know
02:14 pick his brain.
02:16 What are your thoughts on the first few days?
02:18 You know obviously the first few days there's going to be some rust but all
02:25 you're looking at right now is guys competing and guys giving effort and
02:30 everybody's busting their ass it's it's fun to be out here guys want to be out
02:34 here it's there's no there's not complaining guys are real locked in so
02:39 right now we're where we want to be as the as camp goes on we'll be more
02:44 focused on our technique and obviously assignment and everything but right now
02:48 everybody's giving great effort so it's good to see.
02:53 You know during the season you're never you never got it that's what coach
03:00 Gus says so I mean every week you're always improving I try to get better
03:04 every single week as the season goes on I pride myself on that so yeah I guess
03:10 I'm at a good spot right now I'd say I'm yeah I'm at a good spot I'd say but I'm
03:17 always trying to get better always trying to improve.
03:21 Yeah yeah talking to him every day he's enjoying it out there had his first day
03:26 yesterday practice said he had a great day so I'm sure I'm gonna get some films
03:31 sent over snapchat here pretty soon but no it's so cool that we're both going
03:36 through it at the same time and he's feeling healthy which is what's
03:40 important right now.
03:42 Yeah it was nice being able to train this year just push each other in that
03:49 aspect and now you know we're in the league together and we're both doing
03:53 we're playing in a similar defense doing almost the same thing every day so it'll
03:57 be great to compare and you know talk about our tackles and what they do so
04:01 right now we haven't done much we don't have a lot of time to be doing that
04:05 right now but as the season goes on definitely.
04:10 Yeah I mean we had a great offseason so he he we pushed his hamstring really
04:20 hard so I have confidence and I'm I'm sure he has confidence in his body right
04:25 now to go that full speed or he wouldn't be out there but yeah I kind of forgot
04:32 the question.
04:35 Last year I don't like watching film from last year it was not me I didn't I
04:45 don't have the same power the same strength I'm not gonna make it it's not
04:50 excuses it is what it is it's a fresh slate this year I just I kind of want to
04:57 put that behind me what happened last year and I'm in a much better place
05:01 right now knock on wood and I hope I continue to stay healthy just want to
05:05 keep improving.
05:08 It definitely makes you grateful for the time you have out here I don't know if
05:15 it makes me a better player that I have a messed up foot and it's not messed up
05:20 but you know what I mean going through that no I think I would have had an
05:25 unbelievable year last year and I would have added on this year so no I don't
05:29 think so. Yeah I mean I was frustrated last year it's over now I'm ready I'm
05:37 here at camp it's a new year I'm ready to go had a great offseason it was a
05:41 tough process working back to get back to where I was but I did and I exceeded
05:47 it so yeah I'm where I'm where I want to be.
05:58 I mean I think everybody's goal is to go win the Super Bowl and we wouldn't be
06:04 out here giving our hundred a hundred percent effort every single day if we
06:08 didn't believe we had a chance to compete for a Super Bowl and that's our
06:11 goal it's been our goal since the first year I got here I know we won five games
06:15 that year but you know that's our goal and anything less than that is not good
06:20 enough.
