00:00Art, what stood out to you today at practice?
00:03So certainly, first and foremost,
00:04that Matthew Judon was out here in shoulder pads,
00:07begrudgingly or not.
00:09Not a full participant, I would say.
00:10Some of the team 11-on-11 stuff, it was one rep and then out.
00:13And I'm going to go sit on a Gatorade box,
00:15and I'm going to retie my shoes.
00:18Very active with his teammates in pass rush drills,
00:21showing the defensive linemen some moves,
00:23some technical things, showing the tackles,
00:26maybe how to counter those and how to block some of those.
00:29Being a good teammate, so that certainly stood out.
00:31Matthew Judon is at least partially
00:33invested in the process of today's fully padded practice.
00:36Yeah, partially invested.
00:38Or is this a part of the manipulation
00:40that someone does of currying favor?
00:43We did see Matthew Judon early in camp running out
00:46to get the fans on his side.
00:48Apparently, he's not worried so much about the fan reaction
00:50anymore.
00:52Is that too nefarious to think that it has shifted to now,
00:56hey, I'm going to visibly show, I'm
00:58going to be the best teammate that I can,
01:01and those guys are going to love me.
01:02And guys like Devon Godshaw will say, ah, he
01:04deserves this contract.
01:05Yeah, and he said that yesterday,
01:07and we'll probably get somebody today.
01:09Maybe Jacoby Brissett will support him
01:10in his mentions with the media.
01:13I still say, all of this is much ado about nothing.
01:16It goes back to money.
01:17It's going to be what he wants, what they're willing to pay,
01:20and how they come together on those two numbers.
01:23Beyond Judon and the contract situation,
01:26left tackle situation is still not what I'm looking for.
01:29Vardarian Lowe with the first group at left tackle again,
01:32second straight day, after Caden Wallace had been there
01:34for a stretch, after Okorafor had been there for a stretch.
01:37So let me just ask you, he was a young player.
01:42He was only in year two when they got him here.
01:44What, last year?
01:45Is there a chance that Vardarian Lowe might be getting better
01:48and become a starting grade player?
01:51I always leave the door open for growth and development
01:54and a chance, especially when you are desperate
01:56and don't have a better option and might
01:58have to give him that shot.
01:59So yeah, I leave that there.
02:01That's going to get really interesting.
02:03And it's going to get interesting when we get
02:04into the joint practices, obviously,
02:06because those are going to be very competitive.
02:07The Eagles are a pretty good defense.
02:09See what they do.
02:10Match up with some other bodies other than, well,
02:13Judon is only a half participant.
02:15He'd be your best pass rusher.
02:17Correct.
02:17Your next best defensive front player is Barmore.
02:20He's not out here.
02:21So the challenges that that makeshift offensive line
02:25is going to face haven't been that strong early in camp.
02:28So yeah, the line is still a massive concern.
02:31I will say, I thought Drake May had a nice practice.
