 I think we've talked to you since the extension, so congratulations man, and what was your reaction to sign with us? First and foremost, I want to say thank you, it was good to see all you guys. Good to see everything worked out and happy to be back with some familiar faces. Now I'm just kidding, but man it's been awesome, it's been a blessing to be able to sign my third deal with the team and for another four years, so it's been amazing. Thank God, I think my family, I think my support system, I think my coaches and teammates, but the best fours are still yet to come and I'm excited to be here, stay home. What do we know what this team means to you? It means a lot, you know. When front office make a commitment to you and something that's earned, you know, and I'm looking back on the years that I've been here and I see different places every year and I've been consistent and it's been a blessing and doing something right. So I just want to keep growing, keep leading and just give my all. Was it kind of stressful at all when it was kind of hanging in the air and nothing had happened? I mean, we obviously don't know what's going on. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't say it was a thing of stress, you know. I feel like I put myself in a position to have success, you know, wherever God put my feet, you know. But, you know, if you wanted me to be here at home, you know, I still got some work to do and you know, I'm excited to get back to work with my teammates, my new teammates and new coaches, new staff. So I mean, it's been amazing to be able to be back. The energy is amazing and I'm just super, super encouraged for the season and I can't wait to get back to it. What would it mean to you if you could end your career here? It's very rare nowadays, but if you could be up and looking for life, DDP said you just certainly deserve life. You know, it would mean a lot, but at the same time, you know, we're taking it year by year, you know, absolutely, absolutely. So I plan on playing for a long time, you know. So, I mean, if I'm going in the year 16, it might be like, look, man, we tired of having a run. I just, I just can't. But you know, you never know, you know, so I'm excited about these next, you know, four years and we're trying to make the most out of it. We got guys who are willing to compete, trying to go win a championship. And there's a lot of guys that came into this building, I believe in. And so I'm super, super excited. Brady, coach said that he felt like this group kind of had to chip on their shoulder. Would you feel like that this group feels like they need to prove that they can win anything? You know, absolutely, absolutely. You know, I feel like, and that's what makes it so exciting. You know, I'm a kind of guy that always had to chip on my shoulder so I can see it, you know. And so it's a lot of guys that's some great players that they're hungry. You know, they want their respect. And we want our respect as an organization. You know, Coach wanted to respect as a coach. You know, Terry wanted to respect as a GM. So everybody hungry, you know, and you can't, you can't, you can't beat that. You can't coach that and you go, it's only a field. I think everybody feel it, you know. And so I'm excited to be a part of a group like that. Everybody eat or learn. And so I mean, it's just a great, great time to be here. You talk about a lot of new faces. There's a lot this year. I mean, first time in your career, Matt Ryan hasn't been here. Yeah, yeah. Do you feel like you're kind of the face of the team now? I mean, you know, all that take care of yourself, you know what I'm saying? I think this whole organization, the Falcons, you know, it's a team. You know what I'm saying? About one player and about nobody. I've been here, obviously. But at the same time, we got other, we got other guys as stars, you know, what that's going to be up and coming. We got a great quarterback and Marcus Marriota. You know, we got a great draft pick and river. So you got guys to compete in this. It's going to be a team effort, you know. And it ain't even about, you know, who to face. All that stuff will play out. We let the media deal with that. You know what I'm saying? So it's all good. And we just, we just ready to grind. You get it. Thank you, Grady. Speaking of stuff, the media deals with everybody on the outside saying, you know, rebuilding things like that. Do you look at this team like that? Or how do you look at it? We prepare every day to win. We prepare every day to win. We ain't lying to take no over nobody. Man, a lot of things are going through my mind. Honestly, just like how the move was going to go. What to expect when I get here and a lot of things. But I'm excited about this opportunity, man. I feel like this is the perfect system for me to be in. And I really, really like just the people I'm around, the environment. And I feel like this is going to be a lot of fun for me. I feel like this is going to be a good place. Did you know a trade was coming? Did you have an indication? I did not. I did not know the trade was coming. It kind of caught me off guard. And, you know, my head was kind of spinning for a while. So once I kind of, you know, grasped the idea that I was coming back to the right side of the country, I felt good. How much work did you do with Marcus and your time there? Quite a bit of work together. We kind of built up a working relationship. And I'm glad that he's the quarterback here because it's a familiar face, man. You know, anytime you're coming into a new NFL building, you know, it could be kind of hard to make that transition. So I'm so glad I have Marcus here just to make it easy on me. Some guy that I can pick his brain and ask questions to. There are lots of big guys in this pattern. How do you think that can help you guys? I feel like this system is built for big body receivers. We have a lot of those. And I feel like we can all just feed off each other, learn from each other and just grow as players. And I feel like we all can have a hand in this. Did you see Darren Waller's comments about you? I did. Darren Waller was a guy that I grew extremely close to. You know, I'm not a big talker and he's not either, but we developed a relationship and I really like, I really took a lot from that guy and he's somebody that I can, like, to this day just, you know, text, shoot him a text or something like that and he'll, you know, respond. So I really appreciate him and what he's done for me and how he's helped me grow as a player. Could you tell us a little bit about Conway? Oh, man. You know, not too much to tell, honestly. Small town, you know, very united community. You know, we all look out for each other. And, you know, I just have a lot of pride in coming from that place. And it kind of, it gave me my values that I still carry with me today. And I just have a lot of love for the place, honestly. You already mentioned how excited you are to come back. Can you just kind of elaborate a little bit more on that? Just tell me what has been back in the South. It just feels like home, man. You know, anybody who's from the South can tell you that there's no place like home, you know, sweet tea, you know, just community, country life, greenery, trees, just things like the small things, man. When you get in this profession, you really learn to appreciate the small things in life and I'm just so happy to be home. Hey, what's going on? How much did you know about Officer's Office before the trade? Did you have to go to YouTube immediately and start? I knew a little bit just from his past history in Tennessee. I did not get to watch a lot of it when he came here in Atlanta. But I just knew that, you know, he liked the big body receivers and they ran a lot of, you know, in-breaking routes with a lot of guys who can get the yak and make big plays off the yak. So, you know, when I heard I was coming here, I felt like it was a really good fit for me. It was probably as good as it was going to get. Any time a high-profile position player like a quarterback comes in filling in or replacing a guy who's been the guy for 13 years, there's a big spotlight from what you know about Marcus. How will he handle this? People tend to forget that, you know, Marcus is the highest trophy winner, man. So, he's not new to pressure, you know, and I feel like I remember a game back in Las Vegas. Derrick Carr went down and everybody was kind of panicking because Derrick Carr, you know, he's a tree in there, you know, he's rooted in there. And Marcus was like, hey, man, I've been here before. Cool, calm, collected, man. You ever talk to him, he says the gray hair is in his hair up for wisdom. So, I feel like if anybody can do that job, it's him, man. TJ H was talking about the value that he puts on receivers putting physicality. What about for you? How much pride do you take? I take a lot of pride in that. You know, it's something that I got to really, you know, get back in the rhythm of. Being in Las Vegas and, you know, these guys, they play physical here. The DBs are going to get up and pressure you. In this division, they're going to get up and it's going to be man and man. So, you know, I'm going to have a lot of fun just getting back to beating man and man, getting back to putting my hands on people and just being the true receiver I am. Yeah, absolutely. I mean, I always kind of view that relationship in the quarterback room kind of important and special. I always felt that a good quarterback room would really grow. So, you know, when we're out here competing, whether it's Dez, whether it's Felipe, we're all trying to make each other better. And at the end of the day, if they got questions or if I got questions, you know, they're a great set of eyes for me as well. So, at the end of the day, you know, we're all out here trying to compete. I think it just makes everybody a little bit better. I love it. I love it. You know, at every level of my career, I've kind of had to do it. And again, I think it's just a great opportunity so I look forward to it. I embrace it. And Dez has been awesome. He's a great young guy. And again, it's important that that room and those relationships be genuine. And I think it's been great so far. Who was your relationship with Bryan Edwards who later traded? Yeah, he's my guy. I love that guy. You know, we developed a relationship in Las Vegas. He came in as a rookie when I first got there. So we were kind of learning the system together. I love his competitiveness. I love his drive. I think he is a great addition to that room. Yeah, absolutely. It's nice to have a little bit of familiarity with the system. It's nice to come out here and just, you know, be around familiar faces. You know, I've kind of bounced around the last couple of years in my career. So to be around people that you know that respect and love the game is just as much as you do, it makes coming out here that much more enjoyable. Yeah, he's very hands-on. I think you'll see it. The system will have his fingerprint. But what's really cool about this staff is everyone gets to implement their ideas. You know, everyone gets to collaborate and create some just awesome stuff. So for us, as players, it's exciting. When you're sitting in install, you know, everyone's getting an opportunity to kind of learn the system together. And at the end of the day, when you get to come out here and do those things, it's a lot of fun. No, it's been awesome. You know, again, young guy coming in here, he's got all the physical ability. And I think for us, as we continue to help him grow, I think our entire quarterback room just has to continue to help him mature and learn the system so he can go out there and play fast. How much stuff has came back to you? How much, you know, the system is still the same and how much are you doing? There is some similarities, but there's also a little bit of differences which I think has to happen, right? I think over the course of a couple years, arts learn some things, has gone through different situations, different experiences. So I think being around it now, I like where the system's at. I think it really tailors to the people and the players that we have here. So it just allows guys to go out there and play fast and do their thing. How are you taking this opportunity different from those previous stops? Well, I think for me, personally, the last couple years was a learning opportunity. You know, for me here, previously, when I was at Tennessee, I had an opportunity to play. I was a starter. So being around that and then going and learning for a couple years, you're kind of hungry to get back on the field again. But my mentality and my approach has never changed. I've always tried to focus on getting better one day at a time, and at the end of the day, if things work out great, if not, I'll be a guy that's supportive and should be the best team player that I can be. Can you repeat the question, please? Yeah, first of all, I'm excited. With those guys in there, they make you look good. You don't always have to be perfect with your throws. Being able to have these guys, whether it's a catch radius, their ability to get in and out of cuts, these guys have really made all of us corebacks look good this offseason. It's a fun group to be around. A lot of energy, a lot of juice. I look forward to just continuing to get better with them. Can you mention how each of your stops is kind of this one more of that mentorship, leadership kind of role? I don't know. I think it's still pretty young to detail it that way. I really view it as another opportunity. I always kind of try to focus on what I can do to be the best player that I can be. But at the end of the day, we can all do good things to help this team. Mentorship? Yeah, absolutely. I think I've always felt that way no matter where I was in Tennessee or in Vegas. So, at the end of the day, I'm going to help all these young guys out. I'm going to do my best to be the best version of myself on the field. Just try to win games. Does it feel different to have so many young guys to work with? I think that's what's fun. You get to be a part of their and get to kind of help them shape what their professional career is going to be. I look forward to that. I think it's pretty cool to be a part of that, to have a little bit of influence. And we're just going to do our best to help them achieve their goals. Yeah, but I think really what we're focused on is just trying to get better one day at a time. I think the outside noise, what people say ultimately has no effect of what's going on in the field. I appreciate these guys. It's been a few weeks now. Just to come out here and just take care of what needs to be done out here and not worry about the outside noise. I think that's what motivates a lot of our guys. It's a cool group to be a part of. Are you looking forward to spirit? Yeah, absolutely. I've been in there a couple of times as an opponent. It'll be fun to be a part of the home team this time. I think a lot of it is experience. I think it's pretty impressive. Just his pattern recognition. He still physically can do it. Getting in and out of cuts. I've learned a lot from him. Just being around him. Being able to talk ball and be like, hey, what did you see there? How come you broke on that early? What can I do better? It's been cool because I've had that relationship with Casey for about a year now. I think he can also bring that to the young DB room. It's cool again. We had a good mix of older and newer players. What we can do to help shape these young guys is be a lot of fun.
