00:00 >> It's awesome for a guy like that to just jump into the role,
00:03 have no complaints about it, true team player.
00:05 A guy that's gonna be a Hall of Famer at corner, move back to safety,
00:09 be a team player.
00:11 It was funny to see him in the shoulder pads this week, but
00:13 that's just the mentality that he has.
00:15 We're gonna need him to make some big plays for us, and
00:18 I'm excited to see him in the box.
00:20 >> What's the challenge of losing, obviously, I mean,
00:22 Pat Fee's sliding over, but what's the challenge of losing,
00:24 not just one starting safety, but two?
00:26 And what do you, Lachlan, KZ, and Minka, aren't gonna feel?
00:30 >> It's difficult.
00:31 Anytime you lose anybody, it's difficult.
00:33 But a core defender who is vocal, it makes things a little bit more tough,
00:39 especially when we're gonna be at home here, hand signals are gonna be huge.
00:42 The communication aspect of things, the defense, I feel like I repeat myself every
00:46 week just because of the situation we've been in with losing guys.
00:50 But like I said, the guys that have been here will continue to educate,
00:56 and help the guys that are stepping into those roles.
01:01 Get that job as fluidly as possible.
01:04 We're gonna play sound defense, and that's what's gonna take the win for us.
