Jonathan Edwards is speaking of impressive. He has been exactly that, which is why as an undrafted free agent, he has made the roster of the Indianapolis Colts as a cornerback who comes by way of Tulane.

you had an emergency meeting. Everything's okay, right? Oh, everything is good. Yeah, we just had a meeting for a defense system knocking out some last minutes, players on the meeting, so. Okay. We want to make sure that everything's okay. I don't want to take you away from anything that's of utter importance. John, let's begin with this.
