 You came to visit back when you were coming out of the draft. It seemed like things kind of came full circle. What was it about Tennessee that made you want to come to this team? Is it a goal or a goal? An offer helps. I mean, that was a big part of it. But also, Kevin Hogan is my college quarterback here. And just hearing what he had to say about the culture, about Coach Rable, about John Robinson, just understanding the men they are, how they lead, how they go about their business, just aligned with a lot of the values that I wanted to experience in this part of my career. So I mean, it was an easy decision to me once an offer was presented, talking to Kevin. And just watching this team from afar and being a fan from afar, just seeing what they do and how they go about their business. To be able to get a legitimate opportunity to be a part of it, it was an easy decision. And into the similarity as far as schemes like as you've been in before, you went back to Atlanta? Yeah, for sure. I mean, everyone has a similar kind of run game to a certain extent, right? Like zone, gap schemes, and pin and pull stuff. I mean, so yeah, very similar stuff that I've been asked to do in the past. So hopefully it'll be a smooth transition. What kind of player are the Titans getting in you at this stage in your career? A hungry player every year. I mean, every year is a new year. Every year, you're unproven. Every year, you've got to prove yourself to the world. So I mean, I'm just excited for the opportunity. Excited to get after it. Excited to compete and earn my role within this team. After a couple Pro Bowl seasons, Atlanta was more disappointing, more surprising that things didn't go better for you in Cleveland, or? I mean, yeah, I mean, there's definitely some frustration there. I mean, I'd be wondering why they gave me the deal and they wouldn't really involve that much. But at the end of the day, I mean, I've always been the type of player to accept the role that I've been asked to do. And in Cleveland, it was to be a predominant run blocker and split reps and split time with other guys. So I mean, I always value myself as a good teammate, first and foremost. So again, whatever my role is here, I'll accept it and do my best to excel. Because of that frustration, as you kind of alluded to, do you look at this? I'm not going to. I mean, will you look at this opportunity with the Titans? It's kind of like that bounce back. Next opportunity is your best opportunity. Every day is your best opportunity. I mean, yeah, absolutely. I want to be the best version of myself. I can be. So I mean, yeah, absolutely. I'd love to, whatever answer you want, yes. What do you think your strengths are? I mean, are you a guy who's just best with the ball in your hands? Versatility. I mean, I would probably say that would be my best trait. Because I mean, I can line up in multiple spots and I can do what's asked in multiple spots, whether it's in the slot outside or in line, pass blocking, run blocking, whatever you need. Routes inside, outside. I've shown on film, I've been able to do it. So I'll definitely say my versatility. Are you looking for an opportunity to be a guy, not so you want to be Travis Kelsey or George Kill, but a guy who has the opportunity to put up those kind of numbers with that kind of chance? Yeah, I just want an opportunity to compete and just be a part of a good locker room on a good team. So I mean, this was an opportunity that was presented. And it was a no-brainer for me. I mean, just good culture, good team, and just like I said, an opportunity to compete. That's all I asked for. Traditionally, you've been a pretty big tight end centric team. Got away from that last year. You're conscious of kind of what kind of tight end team this has been and what it might be. You mean when Delaney was here? You mean? Frank Wajek before that. Yeah, I mean, the tradition, yeah, for sure. I mean, what Delaney did here is special. I love Delaney. Great dude. Yeah, what he did there is special. And I'm going to let Delaney be Delaney. He's the best to do it at. So I'm not going to try to say anything about that. I mean, I'm just going to try to be the best version of myself and go out there and compete every day. You're weighing an opportunity like this. Do you like sit down and look at film, look at the offense and start to see if you can envision yourself in there? How do you approach that? Not really. I mean, most of my stuff was done with Hogan, honestly. I mean, I called Kevin and talked to him for about a half hour. I was in my college quarterback, one of my best boys. So I mean, once you kind of laid it all out, I didn't really need to ask any more questions. I mean, I have a buddy who's in there who's telling me about the day to day, how they go about their business, how they handle certain situations where the schedule, like all those questions were answered by Kevin. So I mean, I've watched the team from afar for years. So I mean, I know on some level what they're trying to accomplish, but just talking to Kevin, just put everything out of use for me. How did that process just kind of go about, just as far as it from the release to the titans offer? Like, does that seem like it was rapping for you? For sure. Got cut Thursday and then agreed to terms here Saturday. So it was pretty quick. So yeah, I went through that process, get released, and then field, you know, erasional field some calls. And then from there, you know, sit down and talk about, you know, what options are realistic, what aren't. And then from there, narrowed it down between here and somewhere else. And then talked to Kevin, and Kevin just really, you know, was everything. How much of the confidence that people wanted you right away that you didn't have to sit around and wonder? Yeah, I mean, yeah, I'll take it. How much has Nashville in this organization changed in the NFL landscape and the perception of being a destination for players? Oh, that's a good question. It's a great city. If you like music, you like having a good time, like having a bunch of different options in terms of what you can do. For sure, I mean, Nashville's just a great city. The people that are here are awesome. And yeah, that's a good question. I mean, I love Nashville. I don't, you know, we're strictly professional, no Broadway, but yeah, it's definitely a destination for a reason. I mean, great, great fun city. If you like music and culture, it's one of the best out there. What is it about the culture of Mike Briebel that made the Titans? I mean, I just got here. So I don't, I mean, from Kevin, they'll just shoot it too straight. And I mean, that's really all you want. You know, it's man to man, like he'll tell you when it's good, he'll tell you when it sucks, and everywhere in between. And I mean, as a man, I appreciate that. I'd rather know where I stand than you smile on my face and stab me in the back. Not saying anyone in the past has done that, not trying to get a sound bite, not saying anyone else has done that. I'm just saying I appreciate about that style of business of, you know, how he operates from what I've heard. You said you were watching the Titans from afar, kept up with him from afar. What did that look like to you? What kind of work has been the reputation of Tennessee from the outside looking in? Big physical, hard nose, and competes all four quarters, you know, all through the whistle. So I mean, not all teams are like that, but yeah, playing the Titans and watching them, that's definitely some characteristics I've picked up. Talk about all the things that you're willing to do. What do they tell you when they're selling you on the job that they want you to do? I mean, for able, I mean, trying true is just like, I'm one opportunity to compete. I was like, absolutely. I mean, I'm not, I mean, yeah, they said, you know, this, that, and the third. But anyway, like 90% of everything that they were saying, not to be disrespectful, I filtered out. It was just like, I'm just here for an opportunity to compete. Like, I'm not here to say I'm gonna get X amount of catches, yards, tugs, nothing, none of that. Like, it's one opportunity to compete, get out there and get after it, help this team however I can. What are your thoughts on the quarterback part of the tournament? Yeah, I mean, like watching him from afar, haven't met the guy, but yeah, seems like a nice enough guy. Yeah, I'm excited. I watched him, throws a good ball, definitely has a good command of the huddle, has a good grip on the offense, you can tell. So yeah, he's a good dude too, so I look forward to meeting him whenever that time is. No, no, I know my guy, Kevin, that's about it, man. If Hogan's been chasing the dream here, hadn't had a lot of opportunities, how confident are you that he can play in this league if he's needed to at some point here? I mean, I've seen him play in this league and do it, so I know he can. And, you know, obviously that's my college quarterback, that's my guy, I've seen him do a lot of cool stuff on a football field before. So, and he's a selfless guy who's, I'm sure you guys figured out, like pretty quiet guy, but does his work, handles it, true professional. So, I mean, just based off his work ethic and how he goes about his business, I know he can do it. Three down a guy? Yeah, I mean, yeah. You were here for Tite and Tite, ain't you, right? Great time. Do you plan to come back here to work out? Yeah, absolutely, plan on being here and now that, you know, obviously signing here, I'll probably, I should probably talk to George before I say it on camera, but yeah, I'm probably, George, I'll probably be coming over here soon, yeah.
