00:00a season-ending Achilles tear Black Friday.
00:06Can I first say this?
00:08Yes.
00:09The reason why it's so hard to determine
00:16the length of the rehab is because you don't know
00:21what the level tear is.
00:23They don't tell you.
00:24That's true.
00:25So it's a tear, but it could be a partial tear.
00:29It could be totally torn.
00:31That has different levels of rehabilitation.
00:34And so for somebody to just make the assumption
00:36of how long it's gonna take
00:38without knowing how bad the tear was,
00:41we don't have access to that information.
00:43So you admit you were wrong?
00:45No, I'm not wrong at all.
00:46No, but we said week one,
00:48and now you're admitting that you're wrong.
00:48No, not even close.
00:50You don't think it's week one?
00:51No.
00:52But you haven't even seen the video.
00:53It doesn't matter.
00:55You don't know how, you just said it yourself.
00:56You know how severe the tear was.
00:57I've seen the video,
00:58and I think he'll pre-season week one.
01:00He'll be good.
01:01Pre-season.
01:02Listen to this guy.
01:03He knows things.
01:04All right, let's go ahead and review the footage now.
01:06Miami560WQAM on YouTube and Twitch,
01:08if you have the opportunity to join.
01:10This is Jalen Phillips on a ladder drill.
01:13A mere, I don't know, quick math.
01:1611, what month is this?
01:17Seven, eight months after tearing his Achilles.
01:21This is him working his way back into the motion.
01:25Now, I just want to note both of my Achilles are pristine,
01:29and I cannot do that.
01:30Look at that.
01:32I don't even know which one was torn.
01:33Based off of-
01:34It looks like you're doing a little salsa.
01:35You're doing a little salsa.
01:35It looks good.
01:36Watch this.
01:37You notice he's doing it barefoot, right?
01:38Suavemente.
01:39You know why, right?
01:40Is it easier without shoes?
01:42You don't want any traction.
01:43Me sound better.
01:45Okay.
01:45I sound better than the-
01:46The dark grind.
01:47Oh, no.
01:48No.
01:49No, no, no.
01:50No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:50No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:51Hey, what's up with the dark grind?
01:54Bim, bim, bim, bim, bim, bim, bim, bim, bim, bim, bim, bim, bim.
01:56Dude, what does that mean?
01:57Yeah, what does that mean?
01:58Dark grind is grinding when no one is watching, you know?
02:02Not when the lights are on.
02:03Isn't that ironic that you put that out on a social media?
02:07Nobody's watching.
02:08Minus one.
02:09Minus one?
02:10That's the slang.
02:11That is the slang.
02:12So, I feel like-
02:13Minus one.
02:14That's fair.
02:15It's his right one, right?
02:16I don't remember.
02:17I really don't even know.
02:18I genuinely don't even know.
02:19If you notice, listen, he's getting work in.
02:22The left one's doing most of the work.
02:25He's getting work, but he's not putting
02:27a whole bunch of serious stress on his-
02:29This is the best I've ever seen him look
02:31in regards to like his body.
02:33He is really, I know he's rehabbing,
02:36but he is really like cut weight and stuff like that.
02:38Like he looks good, bro.
02:40He looks really good.
02:40He ain't cut weight.
02:42He cut fat, built muscle or something
02:44because that six pack alone was not there before, I don't think.
02:48I'ma say this, and I've said this before.
02:51He's got hips like a cornerback.
02:52His hips don't lie.
02:54Unlike Ingrid, who is in her adult voice,
02:59he's getting his pro body.
03:00Yeah.
03:02It takes like two or three years
03:03before you get to your pro body.
03:06That's impressive though.
03:07You ever seen these ladder drills
03:08and someone's kind of just like,
03:09I mean, I see you on the ladder,
03:10but you're not really doing it correctly.
03:12He's doing it correctly.
03:14Come on.
03:15RVA Richie says Marcos would dislocate a hip.
03:19That's true.
03:19My hips, oh, they've been lying recently.
03:22They have been lying.
03:23I've been wanting to slide by Leroy's house
03:26and hang upside down on his little doohickey.
03:28Can you please do that?
03:30Just one day I'm just gonna show up.
03:31I mean, if I go there,
03:32big school's gonna let me in for sure.
03:34Oh yeah.
03:34So they can plan your wedding.
03:36Plan the wedding.
03:36Yeah.
03:37Oh my God.
03:39So Leroy, what do you think?
03:40Earliest, based off what you're seeing now,
03:42earliest Jalen Phillips would win.
03:44How do you feel about his dark grind?
03:45It doesn't mean nothing.
03:47Can I just say this?
03:48Dark grind, maybe it's just coffee flavor.
03:50But this has no relevance
03:53on his ability to play football.
03:55I don't think it has no relevance.
03:57He's playing without shoes.
03:59If the injury was really bad,
04:01he'd still be on crutches.
04:02Nope, nope.
04:03It's long time ago, dude.
04:05I'm talking about seven months, eight months.
04:07If I tore my Achilles,
04:08I'd be laid up for a few years.
04:10You'd be able to do a lot of stuff now.
04:12Okay, okay.
04:14You'd say so.
04:15I looked up dark grind, by the way.
04:17I see a photo here that says,
04:19I grind in the dark to walk in the lights.
04:21Look at that.
04:22Look at that.
04:23There's another one here that says,
04:24dark grind is a phrase that can mean dealing with
04:27or going through something every day undetected.
04:31Yeah, it's very detected
04:32when you put out a social media video.
04:34Yeah, yeah.
04:35What about this one?
04:37Dark grind.
04:37He's showing you the progress.
04:38Dark roast coffee.
04:40Dark roast coffee with a full bodied taste.
04:43Maybe that's what he's talking about.
04:47Is he trying to show you his full bodied taste?
04:48Somebody said, I just did that foot drill
04:50at the Park Republic's deli.
04:53Good times.
04:54Good times.
04:55I really feel though,
04:56that I haven't seen anything from Bradley Chubb.
05:00Tell you what, this guy is progressing.
05:02Bradley Chubb's not even in town.
05:03You know why?
05:04Why?
05:05He's a veteran.
05:06Oh, they take this time off?
05:08Yeah.
05:10That's fair.
05:10I mean, but Jalen Phillips is a veteran as well.
05:13Veteran of like two years.
05:14Camp, here, camp starts in a week.
05:18Yeah, that's right.
05:19Camp does start in a week.
05:20I can't believe it's moving so fast.
05:22I would say you'll see him doing drills
05:28and maybe, because he's going to start the year on PUP, right?
05:33Puppies?
05:34Yeah.
05:35Yep.
05:36I would say he won't put on any clothes
05:42or any equipment for the first month.
05:48So all the drills you see him doing
05:50are going to be stuff like that.
05:51Sure.
05:52Because you have to understand,
05:54competitors, if you put them in a position to compete,
05:59they're going to overextend themselves.
06:01You can't tell somebody to compete, but take it easy.
06:03And the medical staff's going to be very cautious.
06:04Right.
06:05And so from that standpoint,
06:06he's not going to even be anywhere around competition
06:09for a while because they don't want him to strain
06:12or overexert himself or compete.
06:14Yeah, I'll say until like week one.
06:16I mean, I'll say watching that drill, though,
06:18it's encouraging because we've all been
06:20under the assumption that we might not see him play
06:23until like Thanksgiving, right?
06:25So seeing that gives you some encouragement.
06:28It could be sooner.
06:28When did I say, Marcos?
06:30You said...
06:31October.
06:33Okay, I'll take that.
06:34Before Thanksgiving.
06:35I mean, he could be a quick healer like Jalen Ramsey.
06:37He's not a quick healer.
06:38Jalen Ramsey was ready way before.
06:39How do you know he's not a quick healer?
06:41Because that would be damn near a year.
06:43Okay, so that's not quick is what you're saying.
06:45No, I'm saying like the injury is the injury.
06:48Yeah.
06:48Like there's no such thing.
06:49But things change.
06:50We always say when people tear ligaments and stuff,
06:52he's a quick healer.
06:54That just means it wasn't as torn
06:56as severely as you thought.
06:58So maybe this is one of those cases.
07:00He's not healing quicker.
07:01He's pretty quick.
07:02It just means that you don't know what level the tear was.
07:05He could be like the Wolverine.
07:06Oh, very quick healer.
07:08Made of adamantium.
07:10My word.
07:11Just kidding.
07:12What?
07:13Adamantium.
07:14Adamantium?
07:15Adamantium, yeah.
07:15Which one's stronger?
07:16Adamantium or the Wakanda medal?
07:21Yeah, what is that one called?
07:23Vibranium.
07:24Vibranium.
07:24Vibranium or adamantium?
07:25I think vibranium is stronger.
07:27What about Valyrian steel?
07:28Oh, that's good.
07:29Hey, this guy's good.
07:31When we come back.
