00:00Felt amazing today. I mean the soreness is definitely kicking in, but especially
00:06with the first day in pads yesterday, but you know I stay the same speed and I
00:11could feel other guys slowing down so it's fun out there, yeah. Oh no, my foot's
00:18feeling great. I mean like I said I'm gonna be dealing with soreness that is
00:23it's actually went down so much I hardly even think about it these days, but just
00:29normal groin and hips and you know normal start-up kind of soreness.
00:39Oh no, I have confidence in my body that it's gonna it's gonna be okay as as long
00:47as I continue to take care of it. So as long as I'm recovering well, stretching
00:51and staying on top of my things, I feel confident with going full speed. Just
00:56some muscle fatigue and soreness. I'm not afraid of anything pulling or
01:00anything like that.
01:07I mean TD having him back is or not back but having him back there is
01:13unbelievable. At his age the way he can move around the field it's it's it's fun
01:18to watch and to have him as a leader it's he's giving me crap about not
01:23running off the field which I don't get enough so it's good but it's just good
01:28to have a leader like that and and to see a guy like I said of who's been in
01:34the league for so long sorry I got something in my throat. It's just impressive to see
01:39how hard he comes out to work every day.
01:44I think maybe not positionally or technique wise but you know just how to
01:50be a pro, what everybody preaches, how to take care of yourself. I mean
01:54obviously he had to do something right to be in the league. I'm not exactly sure
01:58how long it is. What is it 13, 14, 15? Yeah I undershot it. Thank you.
02:05Yeah so obviously he knows how to take care of his body. He knows the ins and
02:09outs of the league so it's a good he's a good guy to you know pick
02:14his brain.
02:20You know obviously the first few days there's gonna be some rust but all
02:25you're looking at right now is guys competing and guys giving effort and
02:30everybody's busting their ass. It's fun to be out here. Guys want to be out
02:34here. There's no complaining. Guys are real locked in so
02:39right now we're where we want to be. As camp goes on we'll be more focused
02:44on our technique and obviously assignment and everything but right now
02:48everybody's giving great effort so it's good to see.
02:54You know during the season you never got it. That's what
02:59Coach Gus says. So I mean every week you're always improving. I try to get
03:04better every single week as the season goes on. I pride myself on that. So yeah
03:09I guess I'm at a good spot right now. I'd say I'm yeah I'm at a good spot I'd
03:16say but I'm always trying to get better always trying to improve. Yeah yeah
03:23talking to him every day. He's enjoying it out there. Had his first day yesterday
03:26practice. Said he had a great day so I'm sure I'm gonna get some films sent over
03:31snapchat here pretty soon but no it's so cool that we're both going through it at
03:36the same time and he's feeling healthy which is what's important right now.
03:42Yeah it was nice being able to train this year just push each other in that
03:49aspect and now you know we're in the league together and we're both doing
03:53we're playing in a similar defense doing almost the same thing every day so it'll
03:57be great to compare and you know talk about our tackles and what they do so
04:01right now we haven't done much we don't have a lot of time to be doing that
04:05right now but as the season goes on definitely.
04:10Yeah I mean we had a great offseason so he he we push his hamstring really hard
04:21so I have confidence and I'm I'm sure he has confidence in his body right now to
04:26go that full speed or he wouldn't be out there but yeah I kind of forgot the
04:32question.
04:40Last year I don't like watching film from last year it was not me I didn't I
04:45don't have the same power the same strength I'm not gonna make it it's not
04:50excuses it is what it is it's a fresh slate this year I just I kind of want to
04:57put that behind me what happened last year and I'm in a much better place
05:01right now knock on wood and I hope I continue to stay healthy just want to
05:05keep improving.
05:09Um it definitely makes you grateful for the time you have out here I don't know
05:15if it makes me a better player that I have a messed up foot and it's not
05:20messed up but you know what I mean going through that no I think I would have had
05:24an unbelievable year last year and I would have added on this year so no I
05:29don't think so. Yeah I mean I was frustrated last year it's over now I'm
05:36ready I'm here at camp it's a new year I'm ready to go had a great offseason it
05:41was a tough process working back to get back to where I was but I did and I
05:46exceeded it so yeah I'm where I'm where I want to be.
05:58I mean I think everybody's goal is to go win the Super Bowl and we wouldn't be
06:04out here giving our hundred a hundred percent effort every single day if we
06:08didn't believe we had a chance to compete for a Super Bowl and that's our
06:11goal it's been our goal since the first year I got here I know we've won five
06:15games that year but you know that's our goal and anything less than that is not
06:20good enough.
