CJ Mosley on Haason Reddick and the rest of Jets defense | SNY

Would you think it was a work day know the cause of being the guest going to Joint prices? You know, we have to get ready a little quicker. So we took a little while for us, you know, kind of get in the zone but you know, once we got warmed up moving around started to practice on you know, it started to get a little bit competitive. So it was fun to be out there obviously going against another team. So you got a little bit of action, but overall feel like there's a good day. What do you personally? For me, it's just just like a small step until you get ready for the season, you know, watch a film on the opponent, you know, just getting my study habits, right? Like I would for a season and taking the right notes can the right things and practice but you know, once we get there on the field, we're just out there competing, you know, just trying to you know show our best and execute. Yeah, I mean it starts no puts a lot of stress on this and that's what we want, you know is all cover one. So, Instead of you know, just going the traditional No 1 on 1 DB linebacker running back battles. You just do 707 with cover one. So is it hard? Yes. This is the first thing that we have to do. Yes, but you know, you don't want to make that an excuse, you know, you know, you know live up to that standard because you know gonna be a lot of third and shorts and critical dolls where we're going to be recovered want to have to get off the field. So we just got to use as the same mentality. Possible. I'm sure some players or teams good feel that way. But at the end of the day, you know all guys want to go out there and put their best best effort forward put the best no play on tape going against, you know, a better offense or better defense. That's in the league. Usually guys going to be a little more anticipated for that or going against a certain player. I'm a certain position. But at the end of the day, you know, you want to you want to set that challenge, you know, when we go anywhere and what his home away or indifferent know when we when we step out on the field, we hold that standard we've proven our standard to, you know, try to be the best defense in the league and you have to go out there and do it every day. What are you talking about? It's kind of what's your It's on the preseason as a veteran as well like far as the game. So yeah. I mean it's kind of is what it is. You know, no no, like I say no The Joint prices are cool when you're when you're at home, obviously a little bit easier, but when you go away, no, you have to know adjust to certain things. I'm you do you don't get you're saying schedule that you would when you get ready for practice. So there's just no for me. I don't try to make a big deal about it. I'm at the point now where I'm not even really planned in the preseason game. So these joint practices are like my game day. So it's really just me, you know getting my body and you know, Mental condition getting ready for the season. So just try to find a positive out of it, you know, whether know some stuff is unnecessary some things that we need. It's definitely jar reaction, especially in practice because you know that you can you can be worn by the coach for practice. But obviously, you know, the it's a little bit more serious in the game far as the finding, you know, getting kicked out of the game. So and practice is just you just got to try to control it. But yeah, it's sometimes you can't control those emotions. Sounds I'm you know, obviously you want to do your best to protect everybody but you know, I need this type of practice if you want to be able to protect yourself and your teammates. So, you know, it's a thin line between are doing the right thing and you know protecting yourself. I feel you has you know, I we have a really good defensive line. So the couple times in their way you have to really get out of the pocket and makes and make some moves make some. Was on the missing throw on the run, but I was doing a lot of you know covering so I have my back turned a lot. So they did a lot of no misdirection boot. So now obviously he's a quarterback that's mobile. So he's always been able to you know, get out of pocket and make plays so, you know long as they know keep the running game steady. I think he's gonna do to make some plays and on the back end. Don't really have an opinion. You know, he hasn't he hasn't been here. So I mean is we haven't really talked about it as a you know, the defensive unit. It hasn't really come up on I are you know, we're getting ready noticed all season, you know was getting ready for a training camp training camp here now get ready for the season. So I mean no disrespect but it's just something that that's not really our Focus because we got to get ready for the season so When when he comes if he comes, you know, we're going to be here going to be the same people and you know, you just have to adjust them alarm really quick on you know, what we have to do, but if not, I was just is what it is all great. Talk about what have you seen from him this year compared this first two years. Well, his competitive is always been there, you know, his style of play has always been there. She also saw that today, but you know, he's just you just taken he's He's just taking his role to the next level, you know, the first two years. It was kind of Learning System. Learn how to know really make his maker style to come to life in his defense. But at this point now, you know, people know what he's gonna bring to the table and another thing, you know, he's a good special teams player as well. So you can't take that from him, but when it comes to him getting on the line of scrimmage, his mentality is is contagious. He's back there making plays throwing a tight end to the runner back and Run game and now he's been developing this past game as well. So now the sky's the limit for Him along as we you know, keep them on the field keep his head keep his hair calm and I do those type of things in the game then, you know, you can do something great. Will McDonald What are the biggest thing with him was you know him getting the strength? Obviously just because he's a he's a smaller defensive end. But you know, you've been putting it all on tape this whole training camp when the past been on, you know in the past been knocking been working on, you know, saying is edges and doing the right things technically without the past. So when obviously it's a little hard to do in the preseason with limited reps and you know the timing and all that but you know when a season cause we're going to be dependent on them, so just going to keep pushing him and he's motivated. To you know to make his place and get out there and make a name for yourself. You know getting my reps, but as you get older you have to be smart. So I mean, I'm no spring chicken anymore. So it takes me a good hour to get warmed up and get out there and go so it just, you know, it's a respect thing, but, you know, just a part of you know, understanding. And it is to be playing and be fast and be healthy now December January compared to you know, taking every single snap right now. So sometimes I want to be out there where you know, the coaches pulled me out and they'll cuz I'm on a rep count, but just got to understand the bigger picture. Yeah, it's been it's been creeping up. You know, it's just a just natural, you know, you get older, you know, you understand the League's not for long, you know coming up on, you know, the second end of my contract. So I'm not thinking too far ahead. But you know just understanding, you know how this game goes. But now I'm on the team. I'm in an organization that respect me and I respect him a lot and we're trying to you know do something great here. So my focus is obviously this season and no trying to bring something great to back. To the house. I was really the first atomic question. I got ya.
