 When did you get over maybe the mental hurdle of, you know, I'm cutting on this knee for the first time, all that stuff? You know I'm not sure. I'm really not sure. I remember OTAs, I was still a little, you know, just taking things slow. But somewhere between then and now, I got a lot of confidence in my leg. What do you remember about the life of the person you need? And I remember I used to have it over here that night. I know you worked hard. How tough was that? And what were your thoughts again in the locker room and heard that? I mean it was, it was dramatic for me. I was, you know, teary-eyed. I was crying. It was just a huge emotional blow. It was something unexpected. I didn't understand things. I, you know, I knew the process that was to come. I knew where I was and it was something that really tried to keep me down and defeat me mentally. But, you know, that's not what I choose to agree with or choose to live. So I just, you know, chose to work to get back. In the toughest days, in the toughest days in the journey back, what kind of maybe helped push you through? Definitely my faith. I'm a big, big faith guy, big spiritual guy, without God, you know, without my savior, Jesus Christ. You know, I wouldn't be here talking to you guys. I wouldn't still be trying to chase my dreams. And it definitely, that's the only thing that kept me going. What's been the key conditioning wise for you? Because you've not been able to play a lot of football between the injuries and COVID over the last two or three years. What's been the key conditioning wise for you to be able to keep up? Frank, the training staff, the strength staff, they do a great job getting us in shape, telling us what we need to do. And then, Braves does a great job at practice, you know, pushing us and this team, you know, pushes each other. So that gets you in shape. Did it help at all that this was not the first time you've torn me out that you've gone through that whole experience and so forth? I don't know. That's kind of a hard question. I wouldn't say anything helped or hurt. It's going to be a grueling process, regardless. You know, you just got to encourage, you got to find something your wise to encourage you to keep you going, to keep you playing. What are some things you like about this defense and some of the guys you're playing alongside? Just the quickness and the physicality of it. As soon as it's mine, the way I like to play the game. You know, all the guys communicate well. It was quick for me to get acclimated into it. So many people are saying this could be a top 10, top five defense. For sure, for sure. Obviously you guys feel that way, but what has to be done here in camp to get you guys to that level? Just every day continuing to improve, you know, improve on communication, improve on, appreciate that. Just improve on, you know, getting that, like learning the defense and then just come out every day trying to work on that doing that. You're alongside a guy like David Long, I mean, that guy's a machine. He's not the biggest guy, but he's top. Yeah, he works. What do you like about that? He works. He works. He works like I work. We both have similar style of play. And he's still on the field, that's something I like about. How cool was it to have Ric Flair? Oh, that was dope. Were you a wrestling fan growing up? Love to. Yeah, Ric Flair fan too? Yeah, for sure. Why is he so popular? You always hear that. Everybody knows him. Like more than almost any wrestling even now. It's Ric Flair. Who doesn't know Ric? I mean, if you watch wrestling going up, for sure. I know I did. I know a lot of people I know did. You knew Ric Flair. So, Zach, with the way you last year went, obviously it wasn't ideal, but were you glad to end up here the way it worked out back in Nashville? I mean, did you feel happy at the end of the day? I mean, yeah, for sure. I definitely feel like I was blessed with the situation. The way it turned out, it ended up being one of the better situations for me. So I was definitely happy about that. So did you have any sense it was going to go that way? I mean, it going way, or is it going to anybody? Not yet. So I wasn't really sure. I mean, it came out at like last second. That's where it came out to be. I was definitely happy. Excited for the opportunity. So when you come back here, are you thinking you want to stay a while and whatever needs to be done off the field to make that happen? Are you thinking like, hey, this is where I'm at? I mean, I'm really just trying to focus on this year, for real, just focus on where we are now as a team and just focus on that. How much different for you Zach? What kind of a start camp this year with the team kind of get from for the season after being here for six weeks? I mean, I definitely have more time, more time and experience to learn more of the defense, get more in tune with the defense. That was definitely a great, great thing to see him. You never know when I'll get that chance again. So it was cool. 73-year-old guy about to get back into the ring for one more match. I mean, you see that? Does that help you push through a tough day being a young guy? Nah, for sure. It just shows you, as long as you got that fighting, you can do whatever you want. Hopefully one day, I won't be playing football at 73, but hopefully I want to be in those shoes one day while I can be 73 still doing what I love, whatever that may be. I know Jill kind of touched on it, but just the fact that a lot of people are saying this could be a top 10, top five defense this year, I know it starts here. What do you guys have to do here to get to that level for the season? Just the little things, just being on the same page once the offense break the huddle, that's communication. I feel like if we communicate, we line up, we'll be able to stop whoever's in front of us, as long as we're on the same page. A lot of guys have that mentality to, we know what we have to do to take that next step, so that'll be big. Why is there so much confidence with you guys in the second direct, what makes you guys? I mean, we've played together last year, most of us, so we kind of have that bond back there. So that gives us some confidence, but we add some new guys in there, so we just have to bring them along the road to make sure that they're on the same page with us. Can you share with us some of the things Ricky told you guys? I mean, you know, we just work hard, play hard, he's rooting for us, we're his team.
