| 0:00.0 | So who would you say is the toughest wide receiver you faced in college? |
| 0:19.0 | Um, um, tougher to receive a high person. toughest wide receiver you faced in college? |
| 0:25.7 | Tough receiver I'd probably face. |
| 0:27.9 | I'll probably say, |
| 0:33.8 | got to be out of Travis Hunter and Mick Millen and Kid from a play Carolina right now. |
| 0:35.1 | Yeah, I'll probably say them too. |
| 0:39.0 | Based on the success that Travis Hunter's had at the college level, |
| 0:44.4 | do you think you're going to see more two-way players in the NFL? I really don't know. |
| 0:50.3 | I ain't know two-way players, so I really wouldn't know. I'm just focused on what I got going on right now. |
| 0:55.2 | You'll definitely probably see more, you know, just from what Travis did, you know know from the college and how he's doing it in the lead so you probably do see |
| 0:59.4 | it more but I wouldn't be expecting it if you could play any other position besides corner what |
| 1:04.7 | would it be I'll probably say uh probably a D line O one of them. He ain't got to run as much. Right. How about your locker mate, my guy, Andre Sam. What did you learn about him? I got a chance to talk to Andre a lot last season. Yeah, Andre, my dog, man. He's going to come in and work hard every day. He's going to come in with a bright smile on his face.

| 1:44.8 | We came in the game prepared, but I felt like we didn't expect the Jackson |
| 1:49.9 | Dog to make that many plays as he did, you know, scrimmed out of pockets and things like that. |
| 1:53.3 | But as we understand, as the game was going by, we felt like he was a great quarterback. |
| 1:58.3 | He made plays and scrambled and extended plays and made sure that whatever it was, |
| 2:03.6 | whatever the call was, he tried to execute it. |
| 2:05.3 | So, you know, we're just going in to this week, you know, preparing way harder, |
| 2:10.7 | focusing on the right things and trying to execute. |
| 2:13.2 | When you face a quarterback like that, I know he does a lot of different things, |
| 2:16.0 | but what's the key to kind of containing him? You know, just team defense, especially up front. You know, we got a pack of a man makes a shit. He don't get out, get out the gaps and things like that. Makes he he's not a lot of scrum me. What's been your biggest focus this week? Nickel, outside, specials? A little bit of both.
