0:31.5	Here's the latest question and answer session with Greg.
0:34.3	It looked like when McKee would get to his back foot, he would let the ball
0:38.1	rip. I would say that's fair. I think that what you saw with McKee is what he is. His game is built

1:52.4	Tanner McKee's not going to be the quarterback if Jalen Hertz is fine.
1:55.8	We know that.
