00:06 >> To be honest with you, it wasn't the best situation.
00:08 But like I said, I just had to learn that that was my new role at the moment.
00:13 And like I said, I had to just say what it came with.
00:16 After talking with the coaches, that's just the decision that they decided to
00:19 make. And like I said, I'm a team player.
00:20 At the end of the day, I'm just gonna support whatever the coaches make and
00:23 whatever that decision is.
00:25 That said, I gotta just come out here and do my job.
00:27 Cuz I still have a lot of guys and I still have a role on this team.
00:30 That's a lot of people rely on me.
00:31 So they rely on my energy, they rely on my feedback.
00:34 Even when it comes to the game plan,
00:35 even though I still wasn't playing those first couple weeks.
00:38 I still had input on the game plan.
00:39 So at the end of the day, I just gotta play my role and
00:42 be the best team player I could possibly be.
00:44 >> Just a year away, the atmosphere that's gonna be like there,
00:48 needing a victory, what's it gonna be like going out into town?
00:50 >> And honestly, it's gonna be very emotional for me.
00:53 Like I said, it's gonna definitely spark some emotions and some feelings.
00:58 But at the end of the day, I still gotta go out there and play ball.
01:00 But I'm gonna be so happy to fly around.
01:01 And like I said, y'all gonna see 21 back out there.
01:04 And 21's gonna make a lot of plays.
01:06 >> From what you saw in the film,
01:07 what can the defense do to get back on track this week against the Falcons?
01:11 >> Easily, wipe away a lot of mental errors that we made.
01:14 Like I said, we just gotta clean up the little things, there's communication.
01:18 We'll be fine, like I said, we beat ourselves that game.
01:22 True enough, Seattle, they have a great team.
01:24 But like I said, when we watched the film,
01:25 it was so many mistakes that we personally made that cost us that game.
01:29 So for us, we just gotta eliminate our mistakes and fix ourselves, and
01:32 we'll be fine.
