 Hey Jeff, I hope you're doing well. I guess we talked a lot last off season just about your size, strength, maybe what you're looking to do going into the season. What have you kind of focused on this off season, you know, to get yourself ready and how you're feeling here as you wrap up OTAs? First off, man, I have to be back. I'm feeling good, probably the best out and felt. You know, I probably said this last time, but you know, coming off the two season I just had rookie year and the second year. Going to this third year, probably the best out and felt, body-wise, mentally, just getting prepared for the season. I know that they expect a lot out of the front, not just me, but a front, but I know they expect a lot out of me personally. Now I'm accepting that role coming in. We're going to have a great year. Whatever I can do to have the team win and every down, every snap, giving my all, trying to be disruptive. But as I've seen, I've just been working on trying to keep my weight down, you know, changing, eating habits a little bit different. But they're trying to maintain and, you know, get leaner. And you know, I think I did a great job of that, especially coming in this off season, you know, first week, first month of working out, kind of did a lot of functional movement and what it, what it might be. And then, you know, everything that just fell out, you know, like I said, I've been feeling the best out and felt in a while. So. Paul? Hey, Jeff, is this your first week of working with Danico and what are your early impressions of him? How much can his presence help you? Of course, this is my first week of working out with him, you know, especially on the field, you know, see him twice a year for the last two years as I've been with the Titans. And, you know, I just know he could be disruptive because you could tell from the way he get off the ball, the way he doing drills, you know, we out there even coaching me up, you know, telling me, you know, just play with the lint. You know, don't let the guy get his hands on you, stuff like that, you know, him being a vet in the room and, you know, just taking the coaching from him, not just, you know, coachee, whoever it may be, but, you know, being the vet that he is, you know, he out there coaching up young guys. And, you know, I think that's the most exciting part about it. You know, just OTAs, him coming in. You know, you don't really know nobody, but he willing to, you know, pour what he know about the game, especially up front to us young guys. So, I mean, it's been good just to watch him and be out there on the field and communicate with him. I think it's gonna be a great year up front with us. Kayla. Hey, Jeff, good to see you. We've talked to some of the veterans on the team, Kevin Byer, talked to Jay on Brown the other day. What's just the mentality of this defense as a whole going in with kind of what's on your shoulders to take it up a couple levels from last year on learning from some of those mistakes? Yes, for sure. You know, we always want to be better than we was the year before, the day before, you know, that's kind of something we break it down on, you know, let's be better than what we was the day before. I think with that mindset that, you know, we had coming in, you know, just even on the Zoom, you know, you can hear a guy talking, you know, I know a lot of guys expecting it more out of the defense, you know, not just from the coaches, but because, you know, leadership is about, leadership come from within the team. And, you know, if it's getting led by, you know, KB, Jay Young or Sean, whoever it may be up front, whoever, you know, it could be a young guy, whoever taking that role to be a leader, you know, pushing the defense to be the best we could be and to help out the team to win games. And, you know, the game, win games will tend to win the championship and so forth. And I think the mindset of, you know, to be able to compete at a more higher level, you know, be better on third down, whatever it may be, I think the mindset we have right now and the approach we're taking, I think we're going in the right direction right now. So. Terry. Jeff, follow up on that. Has it been difficult individually and as a group to kind of take ownership of what happened last year and how much additional motivation is it to try and fix what went wrong last year? Well, you know, I think that's one of the things we look at as a team, you know, and not just, you know, just a D-line room, you know, because I think as a defense, we looked at, we don't look at just, oh, we didn't have no pass rush. We don't look at, you know, God's gonna beat over top or God's gonna beat whatever it may be. We look at how can we, you know, get the pieces together on defense and put the best guys on the field to help us be better this year. You know, I don't think we focus on what happened last year, you know, because we can't change that. All we can focus on, how can we be better this year? You know, first and second down to help us on third down, whatever it may be. And I think that's the goal now. I think as you guys know, I mean, kind of the reason why we added a lot on defense to help us, you know, put the best guys on the field to help us be better on the field, you know, whatever the situation may be. So I don't think we just focus on last year. I think this year we're taking that step, you know, since we've been here with OTAs, how can we be better each and every day to get ready for the season? Ron. Yeah, Jeff, knowing the additions that you guys have made, you know, especially looking at Bud DePriah, how much does that help just the pass rushing culture to help some of the things you guys could do as far as stunts and games up front? You know, we just, I know, we just don't do stunts a game, you know. I think with the thing about our defense, you know, I don't, you know, we never know what may be happening. You know, we never know coming to the game, whatever the game situation may be. I know that our coach is going to be able to put us in a situation, whatever it may be. If we're in a game, are we going, you know, one on one, or, you know, going straight rushing, you know, I think we, that's the reason why, you know, Bud decided, you know, I know he's going to disrupt the player, he'll come out there and give it all he got. And, you know, it's just not going to be Bud, you know, because sometime Bud might get too. It's going to be other guys going to have one-on-ones, you know, whoever, you know, we got to be able to win on one-on-one of what I'm trying to say. So, you know, whoever it may be up front, you know, it's me, Harold, you know, you got Bud, you got D'Nico, like I said, the pieces that we got together on the defense, we've been working together these OTAs period, you know, we're just trying to see and feel out of each other that to see how we're going to better communicate, how can we communicate with each other better this year than we did last year. So, I mean, I'm excited for the guys we got. And I think, you know, it's been much better this year. So. Teresa. Jeff, you mentioned changing what you eat a little bit. How have you gone about, have you cut out fast foods, are you eating more poultry, or have you gone vegan? What is it that you've done to try to help yourself there? No, I haven't went vegan. I don't think that's for me. That's not for me. I couldn't do it. I need to have, you know, some of the protein, you know, chicken or something. But, you know, it just, it just cleaned it up, you know, even when I want, you know, like a snack or something, it's not going to get Doritos or something like that. It's more like a healthier snack, you know, shakes, more shakes. And, you know, just cutting out a lot of carbs, you know, because I think, you know, not eat a lot of carbs, kind of sticks on me a little bit. And I've just been cutting out a lot of stuff like that, you know, my time in it, you know, try to eat every day around the same time, try to keep on, you know, staying on schedule, whatever it may be. And that's pretty much what it was. Not just, you know, you know, a lot of guys, like, might probably go on a diet. You know, I don't go on a diet. It's kind of, I just call it, you know, changing my habits the way I eat. And like I said, I don't really eat fast food in no way. So, maybe just a small little detail, like I said, with, you know, not eating bad snacks, I think, and cutting out the carbs.
