 Your team's a little healthier with Ryan coming back off of the reserve list on Saturday, but you still have Nate and Ben there. Are you hopeful that they can, considering where they were before they went on the reserve list? How hopeful are you of getting them back at some point this week and being able to help you Sunday? Very hopeful. I would anticipate those guys having a few days of practice before they play in a football game. Plesenberry locked up right tackle? That's Quiz will probably work there. He's going to have to play all four spots for us, both guards and the tackle. But I mean, I think we'll see how that thing plays out throughout the week. I think Kendall will have opportunities, Ty will have the opportunities, but not really ready to name a starter. I think all those guys are going to play probably in the game for us. But Quiz has been out there. He's been very efficient and he's been available and been durable. So we've got some guys coming back. That may change today based on Ben's and Nate's availability not being here. And then that may look different towards the end of the week too. You all voted on team captains yet? Wednesday, Wednesday. Did you think that you would be less concerned about COVID this year as opposed to last? I mean, does it surprise you that still, even after the vaccination and so forth, that guys are going to come? I would say that nothing would surprise me. I think that we just have to kind of everybody, whether it's the league, whether it's your family, my family. We all have to just understand that we're going to deal with some things. We're going to deal with positive test results from vaccinated people. We'll follow the protocols, how we have to and try to be as safe as we possibly can. Before you guys had that extended break, I mean, do you sit the guys down and hey, let's be extra cautious, maybe not go back to your school for games or anything like that? I think we're always just trying to be smart on what we do. Judging from the games that I watched, I didn't see that COVID was much of a concern for anybody, but we have to be smart in the decisions that we make, whether that's who we hang out with, what we do, and I think that they are very conscious of that. What's your speed? How much different, I guess, feeling the building once regular season week kind of kicks off compared to what it's like throughout in June to maybe do all that? Well, we're at that stage where we're preparing to win. We've been through the training camp. We talked about the foundation that you try to build and developing roles and establishing roles on this football team, and I think now we're at the time where you have to prepare to win. There's a specific opponent with players that have a certain skill set that have a play style, and we're putting a plan in. They're putting a plan in as well, so that's where we're at now. And so hopefully we can come out here with some energy and focus and have all those details now transfer to an opponent. What's wrong with your rookie class? Do you feel a difference kind of in readiness after they have a full off season, full training camp and so forth compared to last year? I think that some of those guys have improved and will continue to prove and help us in certain ways. Those are some of those guys that are trying to find and identify what their role is and how they're going to help us on the football team. How much have you looked at Arizona so far and the fact that they're a team you have faced every four years or whatever as opposed to like a vision opponent, have you done more at this point than you have done? Well, as much as you could do based on last year, I mean they have a certain style and they have a very unique quarterback that's unbelievably effective in operating and Cliff wants to do offensively in their style of play. So again, there's going to be a lot of things that come up in week one that we won't have seen. There'll be new things that we're going to have to be ready to keep our composure and communicate, get lined up, execute, play with great effort, all those things that we talk about because they're going to have things that they'll show on Sunday that we won't have seen. As you get Tannehill back and now having Julio Jones in practice, is it going to kind of be a point of emphasis for you to make sure that these guys get those reps to get that chemistry and that timing down on the field? Well, I mean, I think that goes without saying, like that's, I don't think I'll have to say too much of it. You know what I mean? Ryan's going to have to, you know, build a relationship with him on the football field. They've met extensively and, you know, we've talked about it. Now we have to go out and, you know, operate on the practice field and prepare, you know, for some of the stuff that we'll see on Sunday. I guess more specifically what I could, what you suggest to them, hey, let's get extra work. I would highly doubt that, you know, I mean that I would have to. I'm going to evaluate what we're seeing on the practice field and what it looks like and what the timing of those routes look like and being at a place where the quarterback wants them. Is it a bad thing that Byard made all the tackles he did last year? I mean, ideally should a linebacker be making the most tackles on this team, you think? I mean, I think there's a lot of teams. I mean, Arizona has a unbelievable player that made, that led their team and tackles as well. You know, I don't know. I mean, again, we're just, you know, you've got to try to get as many guys of the football as you possibly can. You know, I know Kevin played, I would imagine every snap for us, but as long as somebody's making them short of the first down marker, that's really all I care about. For a quarterback, when it comes to deciding how much distance to give on the line of scrimmage off the press coverage, how much of that is his decision on a given play? How much of that is talks that have got into it during the week? Well, I think you have to, you know, continue to mix it up. I mean, if you want to go out there and press Hopkins every play, it's just going to be a fade-fest and, you know, you have to sit there and take your chances, because that's what it's going to be. So, you know, there's certainly some conversations about who that player is, you know, what your skill set is, and there is discussions about, you know, playing up, I mean, third and five, if we call man coverage, you know, and they're bunched up, you know, you can't press all three guys, right? So, you have to be able to level it off, however you're going to handle that combination route, you know, and then be ready to trigger once those things declare. But if you're just talking about a single receiver, you know, it's where's my help at in the defense, how do I want to mix it up? Is this an RPO team? You know, there's a lot of different things that go into it. Is it necessarily unaggressive, I guess, if you line up off coverage, maybe on third down? Well, I mean, only if you back up beyond the sticks, and they catch it at the sticks, yeah, certainly. You know, I mean, I think that there's some things that, you know, you watch some guys, you know, flat footed at, you know, seven yards and try to play square, and you know, you know, if guys are backing up into the end zone, that would certainly not be anything that we coach or backing up, you know, giving, you know, a cushion on third and six without some sort of traffic conflict, yeah. Several of your defensive players have talked about how much better the communication is, how much more confident they're playing with the swagger, things like that. After watching them in training camp in a preseason, how excited are you to see these adjustments on the field in the regular season? I mean, I think that they have built an energy and they've been excited about playing defensive football, how we expect and, you know, communication, you know, you have to know what you're talking about, you know, there's certain things that I certainly wouldn't be able to communicate, because I'm really not, you know, up to date on certain things, certain topics outside of football, you know, I wouldn't be able to communicate on them. So they have to get to the level of understanding the details and the concepts to be able to communicate, somebody's got to be able to get a call and somebody's got to give a call so that everybody, you know, lines move in the same direction. You're working with a defensive lineman on a stunt. Those are all things that are critical, but I do like that there's an energy, you know, and an excitement of about playing football, you know, defensive football. And, you know, we saw that, I would say, most of the time in the preseason games that we had, there were a few drives in there that, you know, weren't what we were looking for. You've got some new core veterans, special teamers, obviously, some new youth in the mix. What are your expectations for special teams in terms of, well, increases? Where do we want to improve? I think we expect that we make our kicks. I expect that we cover kickoffs with speed and aggressiveness. I expect that we give our returners, that we protect our returners enough to block them and allow them opportunities to make yards, feel the punt. You know, all those types of things that were sound. You know, I think for week one, it's certainly something that's critical about, you know, penalties and missed assignments and making sure that we're sound and, you know, aware what's going on, whether there's a fake opportunity or, you know, they're going to pressure, you know, they blocked the punt last year and week one, San Fran was up, you know, 10-nothing midway through the first quarter and it really changed the complexity of that game by them blocking that punt, you know, backed up and gave their offense a short field. So, you know, that'll be a huge key for us. Mike, you mentioned the rookie is just improving throughout the course of, you know, pre-season and whatnot with training camp, you know, the off-season program and whatnot. With those second-year guys, the ones who didn't have that full off-season program last year, did you see just kind of generally they start to click with them like guys like Christian today or this year? Those are the, you know, and I'm with you. Those were probably the names that came to mind, you know, as you were, you know, asking the question. But those guys are, you know, they're gonna be starters for us on Sunday and, you know, they have to, you know, take the work that they put in, you know, all the stuff that they did in training camp, their corrections, the improvement, and now have to go out and do it, you know, in the regular season, you know, consistently for us. Been your impression of guys coming off of COVID, you know, if it's 10 days, 11 days, nine days, does it take a few days to get back in the, you know, conditioning-wise or, you know, has it differed for every guy or? Well, we really haven't, I can only speak on the past and probably let you know about, you know, today. But, I mean, it probably took some guys last year. I mean, I don't remember it being an issue. You know, we're not gonna clear somebody until we feel like, you know, they can go out there and do their job and do it, you know, in a manner which we expect and also for them to, you know, to be able to function. So, we wouldn't clear anybody that we didn't feel like, you know, was ready to come back. Guys, though, when they're at home quarantined, whatever, they do something physical to keep themselves at least semi-active, don't they? Well, I'm sure. I mean, I think, again, that would be a question for them. That's not something that I'm, you know, monitoring. You know, they check in with us. I check in with them. But I would imagine that they're doing something. Thanks, guys. Thank you, Mike. You're late and they're gonna ask another question. Okay, try and go ahead. Quick question in regards to David Patton, one of your teammates, obviously, you know, he passed away. Any words you have for it? Just incredibly tough. You know, he's a man of God, very, very quiet demeanor, but made huge catches for us was like, you know, just a mighty mouse and, you know, real shocking to see that the other day. My thoughts are with his family, obviously, those people that he left behind. You spoke of Fulton there as a starter. Where has Caleb fit in, in your vision at the start? Just trying to work his way into trying to be one of those guys that develops a role, you know, for us on this football team. So, you know, I think when that happens, or when we feel like, you know, he's done that, that'll show and he's working. And again, we've added increased his reps, you know, throughout training camp and throughout the preseason games. You know, so we'll see where that is this week after a few days off and how he responds and what he looks like.
