00:00A lot of grilled chicken, a lot of veggies, kind of leading up to that combine process,
00:04make sure I'm performing as well as I could be, and try to get my body fat as low as it
00:08can be while still being agile.
00:10Awesome, now I know you've talked to at least over a couple thousand teams, has there been
00:13any couple of teams that you maybe had a few more conversations with than others?
00:16Yeah, I mean, there's been a handful for sure, but I feel like I've done my all to showcase
00:24what teams would fall in love with me for, and I think at this point it's just a fight
00:27for who wants myself to get drafted higher.
00:31Obviously being back at UW, I don't know if you saw Coach Pete's back here, what's it
00:35like being back?
00:36Yeah, it's been great.
00:37I've seen a lot of people I haven't seen in a minute because we've been training down
00:40three months, but it's been awesome, it's been awesome seeing Coach Pete.
00:44My buddies I haven't seen in three months, but yeah, it's been great.
00:46How's that work with Joe Staley, it sounds like, do you work with him a lot?
00:49Yep, yep.
00:50I mean, every day, every other day or whatever, Joe's been a huge help with us, whether it's
00:54that interview process, film work, board work, you know, the whole nine yards stuff.
01:00Is there anybody more blessed with former offensive lineman help than you because you
01:04had Tyler in high school?
01:06I wouldn't say so.
01:07I know I take a lot of pride in working hard for those guys, you know, those guys are my
01:11first mentors and they still are my mentors when it comes to the line play and just being
01:15a man outside the field.
01:16Have you talked to Coach Huff since he got his job at the NFL?
01:19Yeah, when he was at the Alabama and cut a little bit since he hadn't been at Seattle,
01:23so, you know, he's doing good.
01:25Awesome.
