| 0:00.0 | Hey, hey, where you been? But God talk is about to begin. Hey, hey, hey, come on in. |
| 0:30.0 | Welcome back to Buck, I talk Stephen means Nathan Baird and Drew Gillis. On Saturday, we got an |
| 0:37.7 | opportunity to talk with the running backs Tony offered Travion Henderson, Mayan Williams, |
| 0:42.0 | Evan Pryor, Dalin Hayden. No chip training though. He found a way to evade us once again. He's |
| 0:47.6 | done it a couple of times since we've gotten him. It's evaded us during the interview process. Nathan |
| 0:52.6 | will start with you because you did write a story on Evan Pryor who it felt like a year ago was |
| 0:57.7 | coming into the season as RB three before he got hurt. And now he's part of this clutter of a |
| 1:03.1 | room that Tony offered has to figure out how to deploy because as the offer said, this is the |
| 1:08.0 | probably the deepest room he's had. What did we learn from Evan Pryor? What did we learn from the |
| 1:12.7 | running backs on Saturday, if really anything outside of Evan Pryor's situation? Well, Evan Pryor |

| 1:37.4 | to try to get him up to speed. Obviously, we're talking about a guy who suffered. What he |
| 1:41.8 | clarified is a torn patellar tendon in preseason camp last year. So from basically mid-August on, |
| 1:47.1 | he's been out and was not an individual participant in the spring. Actually, I should take that back. |
| 1:52.7 | It was not a team participant in the spring. It was not a contact or a participant in the spring. |
| 1:56.6 | Did do some individual things in the spring. But this is really his first chance to get back |
| 2:01.4 | and play football. So, and also on top of that, he's a guy who hasn't played a lot of football |
| 2:07.3 | since 2020. His senior season of high school was canceled by COVID, or well, it got postponed |
| 2:14.1 | until after he was already in the Biddle House state. 2021, he played four games, think he had like |
| 2:18.2 | 21 carries. And then last year, it gets wiped out. So that's the extent of football that |
