00:00 >> From what I've watched,
00:03 lately he's really playing at a high level.
00:09 He's getting the ball where it's supposed to go, making plays for him.
00:13 He really grows the same ball really, really well.
00:15 And I think the guys believe in him.
00:18 You see him, a third and two, instead of sliding,
00:24 he takes on the linebacker, he kind of energizes the team that way.
00:28 I think he was that same way, Texas A&M, and he's still doing that.
00:32 That team believes in him and they're playing for him.
00:34 >> What did maybe you learn the most from Todd and what did he mean to your career?
00:38 >> He's been special for me, my career.
00:42 He's a great friend.
00:43 And just when we first got together, it was funny.
00:48 We looked at defense the same way as far as secondary wise.
00:52 And then being with him so long, kinda just looking at how he sees the game and
00:59 kinda that influence how I kinda see the game.
01:03 And then the other guys that I've coached under, coached for,
01:07 he was one of the ones that really, I guess, took me under his wing.
01:12 Just being with him for so long, understanding how to look at a defense,
01:15 how to take away something from offense.
01:18 And just being multiple, I kinda put my own imprint on the defense.
01:26 And he's been a big factor in just me getting this far and getting where I'm at.
