Another year get back out. There
are no prove ourselves again. So looking forward to it. Obviously hoping for a great
health this year a couple of good bounces here
and there but no just ready to ready to roll said, yeah. I'm coming around the same way
as last year so been been around the same. Last year in terms of expectations and not going well and how do you
think as a leader some of the younger guys will
apply this year? Well, I feel our expectation was
always stay the same obviously no injuries and
everything that we dealt with last year some things you can't
control but what we can control is our attitude and how we kind
of work every single day no matter what that is. So we have some added some more
great addition. So I'm through our draft class you're on
routers from great players do free agency. Picked up this offseason. So
just you know keep adding to our talent pool and let's get to
work and you know build our team together one of those players. She's not
here today with Reddick deciding to hold out and
speaking as the leader of the defense. How does that
resonate in the locker room when
you don't have a guy that good here, I mean when you deal with no
contract and things like that, it doesn't really get to the
locker room because you know, we don't control that so when he
does get here then no we're Bill to have our two cents. But now we know he's a pro. He's
been he's been at the highest level of
competition. So I'm sure whenever that's that
gives worked out. He'll be here ready to roll. So when he gets
here just be another great player to add to our defensive
line. I haven't Just his ability to pass rush.
Obviously. He's a high-energy guy ha motor. So no just looking
forward to know out of that to the team when he gets
here. You're a greater sense of
urgency this year. I mean knowing some you have some older
players. You have a 40 year old Quarterback does That
does that kind of tighten the window? I mean some would say so my sense of urgency is always
been high every time I step on the field. So yeah, I mean I act like I said
expectations are the same doesn't change. So we're going
to come out here taking one day at
a time the attorney count no work hard and get ready. To
go against each other for a few weeks and then get ready for
this pretty soon the games then let's get ready to roll for the
season. So that will just take it one day at a time for us. The culture and changing the
culture. Do you feel like that's been accomplished here or
you think you can't stay there until you guys with? I guess yes and no obviously when I first got here
the coach is definitely not the same as it was as it is now,
but at the end of the day this is about wins and losses and
obviously holding up our Super Bowl trophy at the end. So to complete the culture is to
win a Super Bowl so that we've been taking the right
tracks as soon as I said before but you know, just like
we've got to keep the main thing the main thing, you know
stay focused for this for this Camp work on the things you need
to work on come out healthy and start the season. strong That sense of urgency and having a good year. This year is up to the player is up to us.
When we step out on the field, you know, it's going
to be up to us every single day another coaches. You only do so
much off the field far as this game and all that is is going to be up to us to you
know, make it work communicate study. No keep our bodies right and
mentally mentally be prepared for a long
season. What are you looking forward to
most about this defensive unit and getting on the field
tomorrow? I just taking our next step. No,
we've proven ourselves to be a lead defense know we've got a lot of great
players at different positions. We have some great backup
players to so no just for us just continue to keep growing
keep building our confidence keep building. No just the position that we put
ourselves in and not take taking this stuff back. I think being a ultimate
competitor being been a how much hard work every single
by to put in running that fail not just here but everybody have super high
expectation every single year just doing the things that we
can do and this organization and I feel
to win football game. That's me.
That means the most thing that means the ultimate thing to win
the Super Bowl. So you gotta win football games. You got to
win every single down you gotta win on the field on the field.
So that's our main focus right now, and they're really the expectation
just the wind every single day. So, how did last year? Can you repeat again? Take yet a lot of high
expectations and then it seems like that's
going to be the case again. Just how connected going through
what you went through last year help you this time. Oh, you know me man. I really
appreciate not focus on the outside noise, even when
it's going good even was going
bad. I'm not really focused on the
outside know it but just to Inner Peace in the inner doors
that we have amongst ourselves the expectation. We have amongst ourselves the
standard that we have among the highest
self and really focus on that.
So if we hold each other to us, Super high standard hold each
other to a super high expectation and really vibe off
each other and work for each other. It would be great. So the
standard is kind of what is your standard
understanding of his defense? Oh, my standard is Excellence greatness Excellence every
single day. My standard as a defense has
excellent greatness every single day. And this team is the
same thing. We got a great quarterback who set their
standard every single day man, when he comes in here is greatness, man. He's a ultimate MVP man. A Hall of Famer and he said the standard by heat the
way he just walked by the way. He talked to while he
interact with the safeties the deal. I'm the punter the
kids or anybody like I feel like he said the standard
every single day for this whole team and for us
as other leaders and younger
guys to arm to carry that standard
also and to push on to each and every one of us. Oh Is there anything different
about Aaron as a leader and has only one day and now this year compared to last year
what he was new here? No, he's been the same person ever since
man. That's just like we say last year like I'm
saying this year on he was here every single day during OTAs
putting in the work grinding showing everybody like hey like this is the way we're going to
do things around here. This is the way I'm gonna do things just
the way I want you guys do things and
different things like that. So he's a very hard working person
on the field and off the field and just do the things that are
necessary to be a great person in the MVP Hall of Fame callable
quarterback that he is and to help us be MVP Hall of
Fame positions in player that we can be so what ways do you think the
defense can be better than last year execution? I feel like
consistent execution. Let me say that is certain games on speaking on
like I would just watch it one this morning. Just watch your
fam being bored was Dallas last year. We didn't execute at a
high level. We didn't be consistent at a
high level and certain games got out of whack certain game
got out of 10, like speaking on are watching another game on
Washington how in the end the lack the
second half of Washington game didn't really go as well. As we
wanted to and it come down to execution standpoint or
considers the standpoint. So the biggest thing for the we
very talented very together very chemistry, but I feel like we got to be
more Ace we gotta execute at a very
high level. Not just the first half not just the first quarter
but the full 60 minutes and be consistent. What was your reaction when you
found out I wasn't here today. So it wasn't a big reaction man
who sign is a great person on the field and off the field.
A great teammate great great talent, when it comes down to
pass rushing to come down to run stopping and doing the
things that he can do and I was in this position last
year. So I know how the organization
works. I know how Joe Douglas and kosala and all
those guys works and knowing him person has a great
competitor and a great person who wants to be who wants to win
championships, and I know they're going to get everything
ironed out. So It definitely I want to say I do I try to stay out of all that I know he's an amazing
football player. I know he's an amazing person. I know this organization is
amazing when it comes down to getting those things done in a
decent time. So I'm pretty sure that you're going to iron
everything out but he's a phenomenal football player
man, when he stepped on this
film and he changed the whole whole thing whole Aura of a just
because he's a guy that can put a 15 plus x a year 10
plus x a year different things like that. So I'm just blessed
to have Film on my side. So going back to Saint is there
going to be a lot he has to pick up or do you think you
know, it's just at the attack mentality that you guys play with he'll be able
to pick that up. I just think we got a bunch of
great guys and I deepest line room bunch of great coaches and
are white kind and brick and different things like that who can teach him and he's a very
smart player man. He's got so much experience and bending his
knee. Like I say, he's a hall of Fame MVP caliber is Russia. So when
it come down to the teaching him to things with come down to showing him to stand there and
show him different things. Like it's gonna be like riding a bike
for him because we got so many great defensive lineman and
I room so many great coaches in our room to help him
come up to speed and do the things that he got to do to
fit in with us. So he's amazing man. Just the
things he's been doing the last 56 years man. You putting up
double-digit sacks in the last week 5 Five six years and
something like that. So A person that can change games like when he
changed the guess the they change the game
vs. San Fran with the script fumble and just the different things he do
man. He's a game changer for sure man a guy who Super High
Caliber a guy who can Rush The Edge who can stop the run. He
could do it all at a super Elite lever. So I'm just like I always say I'm
just super excited to have him on my side of the ball to my
team to help me out. So Talked about consistency and
execution first year ago. How much better is defense Gap the sky's the limit man. I don't
want to ever put a I guess a bracket on whatever we
can do as get better man, because so many guys changed
man. You got your main Johnson coming into his third year who
can be a pro bowl All-Pro kind of guy Pro
Bowl kind of guy. You got a guy like sauce who's getting
better and better and also teaching and different things like that.
So, So man you can is the sky's the
limit with this defense man, especially when you get a
defense that Stalin their wheels and the good things we did in the
past. And now that we got even better more things to get
correct more things to be more sound on more things to be more
consistent on and and be more violent on and dominate
more man the sky's the limit.
