Welcome to this Wednesday edition of the From the Podium podcast. I'm Gabe Kalura.

The offseason program is underway and workouts have started here at the cross-country mortgage

campus in Berea. On today's episode, you'll hear from head coach Todd Monkin, linebacker

Carson Swessinger, and cornerback Tyson Campbell. We'll start with your head coach Todd Munkin, linebacker Carson Swessinger, and

cornerback Tyson Campbell.

We'll start with your head coach, Todd Munkin, who laid out his message to the team ahead

of this offseason program.

I don't have an opening statement, so if you guys got questions.

Are you willing to share with us what your sort of opening message to the team is at the start

of this off season program?

I was real simple. We're in the development business and the winning business.

Point blank period. That's what we're in.

Did it feel any different? I know you've done it before and stood front of the team,

but first time at an NFL head coach, did it feel any different?

It felt different preparing for the meeting, the time that it took to make sure you're on point with the message

and for the guys to feel that message, but getting up in front of the room, no.

Do you have any update on Joe Bertonez's plan?

I do not.

Are you happy with the turnout so far?

Oh, yeah.

No, I, it's our job.

We all know that the off-season is voluntary.
