 to make sure that you contain the guy running away from the pressure. Is that something that he's emphasized throughout camp or is that something? Yeah, it's something that he's been emphasizing and just kind of, it's part of his game plan and it's up to us to execute what he's, you know, asking us for, asking us to do. So yeah, it's us for it to contain wherever the pressure is coming from. That's, you know, the other side got to be disciplined enough to execute the game plan. What were some keys from the tape that you took from it that you can apply moving forward? There's a lot of things that, you know, we can control. A lot of mistakes that we've made that is easy to fix. So moving forward, just making those adjustments and stuff, just kind of, you know, keeping the edges sound and being able to be fundamentally sound in terms of playing up front. Jake, what part of worry y'all that Coach said, you know, y'all didn't practice, y'all got the first game together and we're doing it for the first time. So where y'all at, which, you know, everything coming together on a different side of all? I feel like we're in a great spot right now. We're just, you know, obviously we need to execute what Coach Pee's has for us week to week. And so he puts the game plan together and as for us as players, got to go out there and just execute what he has for us. So just being out there and being trusting into his game plan. What level of adjustment was it for you to have to drop the perfect zone? Right. It was the adjustment, but it's something that, you know, they believed that I was able to do. So obviously, if they have trust in that, I can do it. I have trust in myself that I can do it. So doing whatever it took during the off season kind of, you know, putting in more dropping stuff into my workouts and stuff. So it was, it was an adjustment, but, you know, it's something that, you know, they're asking me to do. So I'm not going to say no. How did you ever do it before, like at any level? Last year it was like a, it wasn't a, it was just this kind of weird type of drop. It was like a, like, drop to this spot, drop to that spot. But this year it's more of a, like, yeah, you're going to drop. You got to know your coverages, know everything. So, yeah. I mean, even back in college. Nope. I was a, I was a defensive tackle. So I was like 280 when I first came in, 285, 287. So I was big, three-take, basin, everything like that. So it was just, you know, coming in, I was just a bigger body. I was a three-take. So it's funny to say, but, you know, if they're asking, like if they asked me to do something, you know, obviously I want to help the team win. So I want to, I'm just going to drop. So teaching myself what? Oh. Like you said, you're a three-take, you know, six years ago, you're a two-take, you're kind of a three-take now, you know, clear me off. Yeah, it's just, you know, kind of getting with the coaches, getting with, you know, players like Foyer, you know, guys that have been there before, Debo and all that, just kind of getting with them outside of the facility and just kind of spending extra time with my, you know, my teammates and with my coaches of, you know, oh, how do you do this when you, when you have to drop that? Well, how do you do that? So it's kind of emulating what guys have done it before, just kind of, you know, kind of emulating their pattern and everything and just kind of watching film as well on guys that are doing it, technically sound so. In terms of losing weight, is that difficult for you? Some guys, it's hard to gain it. Some guys, it's hard to lose. Yeah, that's kind of weird. It was like unintentional for me to lose weight because I was, you know, a practice squad, so, you know, I was just running around everywhere and me as a player, I'm all effort. So I'm just like running around and just not stopping until the whistle's blown and it just kind of, just kind of just decreased like my weight. Then, you know, they notice, you know, I was already outside and just kind of, yeah, like, you can play in actually. And it's just like, all right, let's see how it goes. So, yeah, it was, it was, it was, it was a journey. So, obviously, week to week, you want to, you know, affect QB as much as you can. So our guys, you know, the D-Line and outside linebackers working together to, you know, affect QB and we are planning to, you know, execute the game plan this week. So that's part of the plan. Learn to like, like the coverage. Yeah, there was like my workouts out at DSA and just, you know, I don't Marietta. There's a lady, her name's Lily. She trains a lot of people here. So I trained with her and just kind of, you know, it was this off season where I really took into turns of like drills that helped with my footwork, you know, dropping into coverage and everything. So when did they, I mean, when did they first approach you with this? Is this during MTAs? Like when they, that first meeting, when you talked to them and say, hey, this is how we envision you? This was like when they, you know, signed me, obviously, just kind of came in the building. Signed me, like, we envision you doing this, we envision you doing that. So obviously, they planted it in the back of my mind and just kind of had me, you know, thinking about it and just kind of preparing for it. So that's when you go to Lily? Yeah, so I was already training with her at the same time. But then at the end of last season, I kind of, I didn't like, no, but I was just kind of preparing myself like, oh, maybe you should incorporate since you're in all outside linebackers, they, some of them even dropped, like some of them dropped. So kind of just like, you know what, let me just incorporate some dropping drills and kind of footwork drills help me in coverage. So then when they told me I was, I am already settled with the drills that's happening at DSA and stuff. So I do. I do love it. I love it. You know, it's something that, you know, I've grown to love. And it's something that, you know, I think I'm a big team guy. So it's, if it helps my team win, then obviously, you know, it's makes me love it even more. So get a quarterback last week, Tom Brady, less mold, but smart, he's evolved quickly. Different challenge in certain ways. Great quarterback, Tom Brady, everyone knows Tom Brady. So it was a great quarterback. And he's going to, he's going to be able to, you know, be out there and make some plays, but, you know, at the same time, we can only control what, you know, we can on our side of the ball. So Pasteur's point of why there's Pasteur's plan, you know, the run game, the pass game, he's going to be back there. So it's up to us to, you know, try our best to, you know, affect the quarterback, affect him, Tom Brady. What was that first drop, what was the first thing? I mean, was it a walkover, was it a movement, or were you just getting after it? In the, in like the games and stuff? Or like in practice? In practice and then in games. It was just weird, like it was, it was just weird, just kind of like being back there, just kind of space and it's just like, oh man, like your, your eyes are going everywhere and just kind of focused on, you know, it's something totally different, you know. But as soon as I got, you know, first couple reps in, kind of just settled down and, you know, thankfully the coaches were like, you know, they felt comfortable with me dropping into coverage. So. For you, I'm sure human nature would be all snapped, run into a giant offensive line and you're not doing that. How much of that was mental, thinking about versus anything else? Yeah, it was, to think of it, it's a big mental game. Like, it's a big mental game when it comes to, you know, dropping into coverage because, you know, like you said, I'm so, so used to going forward and now it's just more of a, you know, now you have to play both sides, you have to go forward and go back. So. You have to put in the mental game aspect into it when you get dropped into coverage, being mental, disciplined with your eyes and stuff. So everyone, like I said, like my teammates, you know, when, when stuff is when I'm in my head, I always go to my teammates, I always go to, you know, I always go to, you know, Dion, Eric, you know, but they're always willing to help because they know, you know, I'm significantly new to the position. So they're always willing to help and that's why I'm so thankful for them because, you know, I'm hard on myself when it comes to, you know, being a perfectionist, like I want to be, I want to be this, I want to do that. So when it comes to that, it's always great to, you know, go to my teammates and stuff. No, thank you.
