00:00 Like would you be fine playing with your brother, those type of things.
00:02 But our conversation was great.
00:04 I've seen those two people before.
00:06 They've come out to my practice together.
00:08 So we're just having a great time.
00:11 >> So would you be fine playing with your brother?
00:13 >> I would, yeah.
00:14 It wouldn't be a blessing.
00:16 >> Just one of the things.
00:16 >> Yeah, they'd be making history if it happened.
00:19 >> Does Duke show you a video of anybody in the NFL and say,
00:23 this guy's your body type, watch how he does certain things, or no?
00:27 >> Not to an extent, but he makes comparisons, but not too deep.
00:32 Maybe certain aspects, or maybe you do one, you maybe have one rep and
00:36 he'll compare it to somebody who also had a rep like that.
00:38 But he won't compare whole people.
00:40 >> Right, right, right.
00:41 I don't know what experience you've had exactly with different quarterbacks, but
00:45 obviously there are the types of guys who are more pocket passers,
00:48 the guys who are more mobile.
00:49 For a lineman, what's the difference for you?
00:51 Does it matter one versus the other?
00:53 Or how is it challenging playing in front of a mobile quarterback who you never
00:57 quite know where they are versus mobile pocket passers?
01:00 >> That's a good question.
01:00 I mean, for what I've known my whole career, I come from an air raid offense, so
01:05 it really doesn't matter what type of quarterback you have because the ball's
01:10 getting thrown regardless.
01:12 So honestly, it was just creating a clean pocket to stare at your guy,
01:16 straying past the whistle, and not letting anyone touch your quarterback.
01:20 That's all I know, so.
01:21 >> Maybe a touchy subject in the city of Houston, but
01:24 how do you feel about the Titans rocking the Oilers uniforms?
01:28 I know the Cougars- >> Thank you.
01:30 >> Kind of wrecked their own little throwback,
01:33 paying homage to the old Houston Oilers.
01:35 How do you guys feel about that being an NFL uniform right now in Tennessee?
01:39 >> All I can say is that when they played each other, we won.
01:46 And they wore those colors, but it's all the same.
01:52 I think it comes from Houston though, originally, so that's all I can say.
01:56 And we also rocked them this year, and I think we're wearing them.
01:58 >> You covered Christian Washington a little bit,
02:02 what do you think of his music career?
02:03 >> I love it, his music is great.
02:05 Definitely think he's a talented musician.
02:09 >> He did a lot of stuff off the field, in the community.
02:12 Do you see yourself wanting to get situated somewhere,
02:15 trying to help as well, and if so, in what way?
02:17 >> Of course, I'd always wanna do stuff around the holidays.
02:21 I wanna help out anywhere I can, I wanna get involved with my community.
02:24 And I wanna make an effect immediately when I can get some.
02:28 This year we did a lot of events throughout football.
02:31 In the hood, he was located in third ward, so we'd go with the team,
02:36 we'd go and pick up trash.
02:37 It's just little things that builds teams a lot, and
02:40 also just helps out the community.
02:42 >> If I recall, I think Chris said that the Senior Bowl was a really good
02:45 opportunity for him to kind of get attention.
02:48 What advice would he give you about working this week, and
02:51 is there anything?
02:52 >> Just be myself, don't overthink too many things.
02:55 A lot of times, you've been playing football for your whole life, but
02:58 you come out here, you're gonna be so amped up that you might psych yourself out,
03:02 or overthink too much.
03:05 So just have to be myself and let loose.
03:08 >> All right, Patrick, I got a fun question for you.
03:10 >> Of course, let's do it.
03:11 >> All right, so should the Reese's Senior Bowl have an edible mascot?
03:16 >> Yes, but like chocolate on the fingers or something, or
03:20 like on the shoulders, somebody just walk by, just like that.
03:23 >> Okay, that's good.
