and Oh, Hey everybody welcome to

to another episode of Purple Insider Matthew Collar here and yes I did intentionally

timeline for looking at J.J McCarthy throughout the summer and where he might be

by the end of I guess we could call it the spring and then in

training camp in the summer and what the timeline might be based on the very small

amount of information that we got from Rookie Mini Camp.

Although I will say that right before I went on,

I was chuckling to myself about a few things.

And I feel like part of my job is to say when something is a thing and when it's not a thing.

So part of it is playing almost panic traffic cop or overreaction traffic cop to all right I've been doing
