00:00 Tyree, first of all, congratulations.
00:02 That was your best game as a pro.
00:04 You really came out and shined.
00:06 Again, you just see the confidence every week.
00:08 It seems like, again, the joy of playing football is coming back to Tyree Wilson, isn't it?
00:13 For you, you've always been big, athletic, and fast.
00:18 But everybody is in the NFL.
00:19 Is that the hardest part of the learning curve?
00:21 Yes, it is.
00:22 I mean, you know, you used to be running over people in college and high school, and now
00:28 you just got to come to the NFL and it's all about technique and being technical in your
00:32 game and continuing to get better and have a change-up of different things that you do.
00:38 Do you take pride in that was your best game, or you just head down, "I'll think about that
00:42 after the year.
00:43 I just want to get better every week"?
00:44 Really, I'm just focused on these last few games and just throwing everything out the
00:48 window and just going to play hard and put my best on the field for my brothers so we
00:54 can go out the right way.
00:55 I want to ask you about you personally.
00:59 It seems to me there's not any thinking anymore.
01:01 I'm just going and playing.
01:03 Am I reading that right?
01:04 Yes.
01:05 I mean, it just comes down to preparation and seeing what the coach is going to let
01:09 them.
01:10 A little edge on the other opponents and going out there and the game just slows down and
01:16 you can just play free and make plays.
01:19 That's awesome to watch.
01:20 Alright, last question for me, but I think it's fair and germane.
01:24 You had a brutal injury in college.
01:28 Are you even 100% yet?
01:30 I mean, I feel like this injury is a bad injury.
01:34 It takes a real good offseason to get back and be 100%.
01:40 So I've been saying the expectation was you weren't even going to be 100 until next year.
01:45 Am I correct?
01:47 I mean, nobody really knew because you don't really know how long it takes to get back.
01:53 But my point is you're not 100 now.
01:54 I still have room to get better and grow and get my body to 100%.
02:01 That's good news.
