00:00To be real, I felt more compelled to come back after that than anything.
00:06Cuz I've never experienced that in my playing career to have
00:12a teammate shot, so to speak.
00:16So in my mind, I'm like, man, I just wanna get back, get around the team.
00:21Ricky stood out to me because when I did,
00:23when I popped in for OTAs for the 30 minutes I was here.
00:26He did go out of his way to come and introduce himself to me.
00:33So when I seen that happen, I'm like, man, I just wanna get back.
00:35I just wanna be a voice in his ear, let him know everything gonna be all right,
00:39I'll be there for the team.
00:40A lot of people probably hurt and confused about what happened and
00:44thinking, am I next?
00:46So I wanted to be around for that.
00:49But my message is just to realize you're a target, and
00:54this world is a hard place.
00:56It's a very, very, very harsh place.
00:58And I think sometimes we are shielded from reality.
01:02And for better or worse, whatever the reason is, we are, we can be.
01:07So just staying in the moment and realizing that your life is more important
01:12than anything that you can wake up and put on.
01:14So just always keep that eye out, man, and
01:16just know that there's people out here that don't really value human life.
01:21And you just gotta be aware of that.
