00:00There's been a lot of discussion about a rookie for this team that people want him to start
00:07and people want to know that he's starting and they want to parade an announcement of
00:12start starter dumb.
00:14Okay.
00:15Yeah.
00:16The word.
00:17Nope.
00:18Uh, of course I'm talking about Brandon Coleman.
00:20Of course.
00:21Who else would we be talking about?
00:23He was there today.
00:24Take me through it.
00:25Yeah.
00:26I think today was the first kind of significant step for Brandon Coleman.
00:29He was taking all of the reps at starting left tackle and I think more importantly,
00:34you saw a Cornelius Lucas taking some starting reps at right tackle.
00:39So you, you're seeing a progression for both Cornelius, Brandon Coleman and Andrew Wiley
00:44about how they want to kind of test out this, uh, tackle situation.
00:48And listen, I think Brandon Coleman's looked quite good, uh, in camp so far.
00:52Of course, a lot of that in shorts and a t-shirt, so you can only take so much from it today
00:56in the full pads.
00:57He looked good, uh, taking on any sort of power rush or rush Adam.
01:01He struggled a little bit with some of the speed to the outside, but he's a, he's, he's
01:05a rookie.
01:06He's getting used to what that speed looks like in the NFL.
01:09And uh, you know, Dante Fowler is one of those guys that's super quick off the ball and has
01:12given him, you know, a couple of, uh, issues along the way, but he's a, he's a third round
01:16rookie and it's going to give him, it's going to take a little time for him to get settled
01:19in and learn how to play that position and deal with, uh, the different kinds of rushes
01:23that the NFL, uh, gives you.
