do a lot of different things on the field to to bring the team success you know I'm a student of the game you can see you know I know where I need to be at when I need to be there those aspects kind of are why I feel like I'm the best wide receiver in the draft what's good y'all I'm Romo dun I'm from the University of Washington I'm a wide receiver and I'm in the 2024 NFL draft class I love the art factor of it and and the craftsmanship that you have to have at the position you know there's so many different shapes and sizes that a wide receiver can come in and so many different athletic abilities it's a range so for me it's just you know the technique of it and having to be very detail orientated in everything that you do to accomplish your task on every given Place what's good bro we yeah that's right that's right I like your game bro bro my guy roome is going to be good I'm like no he's not going to be good he's not going to be good um I always tell people this story when I

the process pick range like five to yeah I mean anything in the yeah anything in the top 10 yeah top top 10 like valid right now so success that I had very early on was you know a lot of key factors in me loving the sport continuing to visualize it it's always been a dream of mine and you know always been something that's ultimately been attainable but I would say you know High School College you know I as I had more and more success you know became more reassured that okay like I'm really going to go do this thing that's what I'm saying I'm trying to be right next to Bro Michael penck is the best player in college football last year he is a dog he is him dangerous I know I was getting a rock so he must have been doing his thing and you know every time you turn on the tape he was doing just that R is a dog for real like man he just so consistent man he the same person every day from Tampa Florida he got that accent right now we ain't got to wait no more he's hilarious man you know

Hamilton so hoping to harness some of his energy tonight if you know you know when it comes to me a racing cars I'm him I'm locked and loaded all black [Music] you know I'm not going to be behind all these cars by the time this race ends that's how I'm really feeling I'm definitely not going to be behind Troy ain't that right Troy and if youever inou as why the world number one in this race I'm coming number one I don't lose now go 3 2 1 go come on man tell I do this for real I actually was a running back at first you know my dad was a running back but then we realized we didn't have nobody can throw the ball but for some reason I could throw so it moved over he trying to tell me to slow down I don't know what that means you still fast though am I still fast I'm real fast my senses are tingling you know what I'm saying I'm feeling it right now I am speeding man wrong catching up man I don't like that I'm real competitive I'm going to try to win you know I'm going try to do it all you know I'm competitive at everything I do my go come go stay tight to the corner but these fools don't realize it's about the best lap time and get in a nice position where I can really rip it go get that pass left slap you know who going to win you want to win put in [Music] man what up Toby great [Music] I know y'all just seen what happened man killed the course I don't know where he went lost him right away they still bumping me in the race over that's how you know they can't drive golly see these Mo can't drive bro bro that wasn't me bro y'all got the fastest lap on there where we see the time you know what time it is first place man you know what I do come on I told you I told y'all I had the fastest lap Mike got four he's talking about fastest lap I seen him come behind and then what happened he spun out cuz he can't drive I boy hit a whole donut over there out because I was going so fast my I didn't want to exactly you don't know how to control the wheel I know how to work the wheel I know how to kiss the Cur you know what I'm saying I mean I'm still going to have the fastest slab it's just really it's it's easy for me oh oh look at dude that guy on top of that dude just when we got our first race they almost got into a crash now they just got into another crash he come comes in and hits the back of my car hard as no it was B it was and I'm got like whip Blast from it hey we got one more race I'm a bit of a trash talker for sure I'm on that ass chy I mean I'm not a big trash talker when it comes to football but when it comes to other sports that I'm nowhere near very good at oh I'm talking smack come on what y'all doing back there man trash talk off field I ain't trash talking unless you trash talk to me then I all right too many protein shakes you way too much [Music] bro Jo I move out my way I think that you know as a competitive level to it and adds some fun I'm on his ass just a little bit of ban for sure CH slow you're getting in my way I got bad tires dog this Don't Drift how I supposed to bro [Music] I can't lose the [Music] Edie wasn't my best showing today boys your cart is fast boy I had the fastest lap again but B came in first B came in first I have to are you going to ask Rome ask ask Raj bro this was the driver man the best driver wins I think throughout this experience I realized that I'm not a Dell nhart Jr I think I'm going just stick with football man the end result was third place which I'm okay with knowing that I had the fastest lap time just being able to have the opportunity to go out there and compete against them it's always fun my first car I had it was good I was hitting every corner but that second one I don't know what it was something wrong with them tires I know how to drive it was fun though have some good time with my guys my next chapter has finally arrived but the journey to get here it was never easy but with a little bit of courage and confidence in the path forward Reaching Your Dreams is always possible what's something about Rome people don't know yeah as tall as Rome is and as as athletic as he is he can't play basketball for anything you know what he said about you what Rome's tall but he can't ball let's play Pig Rome first hell no you put a basketball in his hand he's so uncoordinated Rome's tall but he can't ball wow that's crazy don't put a basketball in his hand come on Ro wow I can't believe he would say something like that oh God he ain't going to like that I said that but he know it's true deep down inside he going to say it's false but Rong came play no basketball I got to make one have you actually make one yet n that's crazy Mike that's crazy that you would say that man he's just mad cuzz I got like a couple of inches on him like it's all good little bro you just stay down [Music] there I first found football running around in the yard play throw it up get busted and that was my favorite game to play as a kid that right there let me know that I love football and made me want to play football can you throw too play quarterback I played quarterback a lot growing up just because of my smartness and coaches always wanted the ball in my hand so I can make the right decision that was best for the team high school then boness came so I got mve the receiver freshman year out High School a state championship game coaches s me in to play cornerback caught a pick had like four tackles and forced a fumble that's when I finally felt the love of a quarterback I don't believe it do I got you don't got leaders playing cornerback bad things are going to happen I like the challenge that I'm going against a guy who know what he doing and the quarterback know what he doing and I just get like hyped being able to stop a guy who have a advantage on me and had to focus every play because you never know when opportuni coming your way Kool-Aid mckinstry in perfect position and he picks it off maximal effort explosive today we worked on a lot of explosiveness lunges speed squats explosive type of workout just cleaning up everything that I would be doing at the comeb by tuning everything up so I can be my best when I met Kool-Aid right away you can tell the guys who kind of separate themselves from the pack control control try not to push off there you go he really had a solid idea of his identity drive through tap that right need here boom you got it boom you got it boom I love coming in the weight room especially with a guy like T he always going to push you to the full extent he just always on our butt always trying to make sure that we can be our best you got a one4 in you hey look good it's hard to develop so many in 8 weeks but the effort that we've seen the consistent development over these couple weeks has really shown a lot I just honestly wake up joyable every day because it's another day to live and God gave me another day on this Earth take the slam then throw it boom and I think he's going to bring the competition level of whatever team he goes to to the top come on coach there it is that's better I like that time to recover man shout out to overtime great day today check up my second love right here really my first love we turn into a hoopa video bro I love basketball it's actually was my first love a lot of times I wanted to stop playing football just to play basketball because how fun it was but see what I'm man now about right yeah that about right that about right that about right A lot of my teammates say I do be talking or do be acting crazy but I enjoy talking with my teammates you know just hyping them up saying little things them to make them smile you [Laughter] know you know you found me on R gr for I a sh for that we Sho for who can't just get my my real name is Koolaid n for real my real name is j Quincy when my mom was having me of course I was um coming out and my grandmother was in the room with her and my grandmother said that I had had the Kool-Aid smile so I

in my corner are very good to me they understand me the most damn Tom you want us L just always there for me no matter was it good or bad always telling me what's right telling me what's wrong and asking people around me like what you think about this should I do this should I say this should I do that I'm just having people around that you can trust that won't leave you in the wrong dire it's just a very good thing and I'm very blessed to have those great people around me God damn gang I do I do got to go to the [Music] lead I'm just going to roll through like it's an install silver Robin now we're going to go Silver Spoon twig stick Branch tree automatic sit to the through to now the dagger why short to northri clamp started off in the meeting room just going over different stuff as far as what we need to get prepared for come combine dice right clamp three jet y Silver Spoon pitch box fade it's a lot more than just going out there on the field and running a 40 and you know throwing and stuff a lot of the times they'll talk you through and be like look I know this says one it's one when we get the coverages we know that he can win on on something like this where they want you to give eyes towards the X to move a backer to open up the F window or you straight to your y y just stra to we go over different plays and stuff like that but he just gives us Overlook on what to expect throughout these combine process as you go into the interviews remember it's confidence these guys are interviewing you because they're going to say if we're going to take this guy this guy's going to be the face of our franchise I feel like I do really good at interviews whenever I get up in front of Team talk to them about my game if you can talk to teams and they ask you about your journey you know what adversity feels like I'll definitely think about that too like a lot of people haven't been through what I've been through going into College I've never been injured before freshman year 2018 I tore my ACL 2019 I messed up my clavicle 2020 tore my ACL again 2021 I did my AC joint Four Season four straight season in injury dude we don't like to go through those things when we go through them but the thing that we don't realize is how that fortifies our that gritty part of us that actually makes us stronger our parents they never let us quit anything you know it didn't matter how small it was was how big a g how small it was like if you going to start something you going to finish it it was that and you know just my faith you know just trusting in God you know just trusting that you know he he had a plan for me you know I just had to put it in his hands at that point and just uh continue to uh believe in myself and so you can look them in the eye and say if you draft me I know there will be challenges and adversity and I've had adversity in my life and I'm confident that I know how to handle it I just needed something new man just a fresh start you know um just trying to figure out the right opportunity you know and it presented itself I met coach dor he was my OC in 2019 he did a lot of great things with me in 2019 so I wanted to bring that back and it was able to and it turned out to be successful [Applause] [Music] dangerous came out on the field had a workout almost like a mock combine I think he wanted us to be like the feel of combine we're going to throw two balls and then we got to wait for the next guy did a lot of the things that we're going to do in the combine now Mike I just don't want some coach being like hey how come you're only at like three and2 yards I love the direction you got but still get still get some depth coach bet he's been doing an amazing job making sure that we're prepared for all the situations at the combine it's fine I got to know Mike a few years back as he was transferring to University of Washington and so for the last few years Mike and I have been putting in training [Music] session get [Music] out that guy has some amazing tools when it comes to just his arm ability [Music] alone oh that's air too much got a little tip that's why that just a little too much air that's all for some of these coaches that may have only seen a game on TV they haven't really taken a deep dive into the tape at the combine that's going to be the first chance to see him throw live nice they'll turn over beautiful is that sun in a bad spot should we go goes from this side going in I ain't going to lie they they should uh be able to catch it wherever we put it and I think that when some of these guys see the ball just flick out of his hand they're going to say wow that's impressive good ball Mike great ball you know things I can tell about Mike over the last two years that I've known him is he's been very detailed like this stuff matters to him he would send me a text message like hey coach had these throws in practice today can I shoot you the clips because it didn't feel exactly like I wanted you know when he's out here on the field he approaches things like a pro great ball really good ball I feel like I'm very very consistent with my ball placement my accuracy and stuff like that no dude I was a throwing day today man had some good work in had some combine receivers today so you know it was special man it's good with it sorry for dropping the ball brother on your way to the league there's a whole lot of background noise but if you stay grounded stay humble stay focused the rest will take care of itself the cover is one of those things I feel like I had to focus on and some I had to just really put an emphasis on on me doing it in my whole career today we'll be doing the sun it's good for the skin good for the breath training for something um D what would you I just want to play didn't really matter to me right now I ain't even have much time to think about the NFL itself and just thinking about what I got going on right now just keeping my feet where they are and just being focused on where I'm at right now believe he went in fully clothed like that son of suit soing makes you sweat way more this is really just honing in on getting the body to feel good as they move into the combine so they can move fast with confidence we also will be doing a little little yoga today and exhale thread that left arm through so as we really reach let the head lower and hold here for Kool-Aid the flexibility is more like a recovery aspect too and it's just one small part of the training as a whole more than anything it's that breath work as well as mindset going into a high pressure situation fill the stomach up vocal exhale Let It Go the breath counts that we do I'm definitely taking that with me from yoga you know just taking that breath no matter what's going on no matter if a bad play happened or a good happen just taking that breath and responding to every situation the right way inhale look towards the left hand nice breath Kool-Aid very good it's more than just being an athlete it's more than just being strong you got to have the full package and to be able to bring it all together when it counts look towards that left hand for three two one left hand lowers yoga clears my mind and it get me focused it loosen up my body it warm my body up I feel like that's play as an impact to me on the field slowly lower to the chest release the feet roll the shoulders inhale press up find Cobra I feel like my body changing my body feel looser my body feels better lighter even though I'm the same way to just feel more clean exhale lower back down job fell oh break it in bro for the video bro I can't do it I can't do that here it's too too cold the cold plunge it's all right I love the way they make me feel definitely though like the sun was out I'll do it but sun's out right now you're like sitting in this what are you talking about it's on top of the um on top of the building though on top of the warehouse I can't get in that right now it's too cold I feel like to bring all my brothers alone and um I take very much pride to make sure all of us is doing our best and having our best life cuz where we all come from and everything that we all been through that we all deserve it not just me remember I used to never want to get in here first time you jumped in an ice bath what was it like I was ready to get out my first time in ice bag definitely was ready to get out but I end up standing there like 10 minutes long so after I knew I can do it like that it wasn't a problem no more for me I'm pling out catch you guys later man I got to warm myself up that's it for here sh old [Music] time what's up what's up what's up it's your boy I got these shoes right here how much for these these I got at two 200 200 why you doing that you like 130 ain't it yeah how you say 13 huh I sld three today for two my favorite part you know of course was just getting some shoes but the wild part I would say just those people

everything out here when I was walking around I was just trying to see shoes that I maybe missed shoes that I like that I don't have a pair of what you want these I mostly was just going around looking for Georgia that I may have missed and I still didn't find the ones that I was looking for 300 right now 300 cash yeah there's a camera on me so I have to do it bro just growing up my uncles made sure and my mom made sure I had every pair of joints that came out every Saturday so I always just been a joint guy since the day I was born all blue on retro five so I really want those shoes everywhere I go they either have them and don't have my size or they don't have them at all and they kind of makes me mad about those five I ain't got I ain't got a pair of these I think I got a pair of of retro ones like I got two pair of Yeezys got a couple shirts it's actually one of the shirts that I got with tank on it right here I think that's pretty much it appreciate you does the style come from the confidence or does the confidence come from the style do the confidence comfor the style do the style comfor the confidence I think the style com from the [Music] confidence really kind kind of laidback guy just lame Jan I don't really like to do too much I don't got to do all that to overdoing it I just feel like just put anything on I can just be me yeah the black one definitely look better than the white one the way that I know how to put it on the way that I wear it the way that it wear on me the way I carry myself it just makes it more than what it really is I got to be careful on what shoes I get on know I'm ass sign with be bad can't e wear I think I always just been coment in myself and I feel like you're not going to be confident with yourself if you're not working if you ain't confident you ain't going to have style and if you trying to fake confidence you going to fake the style and it's just not going to add up together all right that's going to do it for us here catch you guys later shy [Music] overtime the path to the drive is not always easy but you know how to get the boys and style thanks to our friend Ram trucks they hooked us up with their latest and greatest trucks first up wrong which truck you think you got bro okay yes sir let me see what's say talking about inside it's clean okay next up lights where we at where we at we got the grave boy I can hook a boat up to the back of it right here for sure you know I like the fish it night right here it's comfortable too it's only two cars left koola I told you you see me I can't really drive you can drive me and my Whip or I can ride with you man whatever you want to do taking a red then let's do it you need help getting in bro my bad that's my fault bro you need help get you going leave me hang my bad bro my I put this on the back of the truck for you bro yeah man appreciate you bro scroll man built by BMA appreciate you man you feel me yes sir yeah go ahead and drive now bro I can't oh that's right come on whoop me bro my bad bro my my fault my fault my [Music] fault okay the mirror's popping out all right let's take them for a spin now last one back got to cook dinner okay checking out I'm going to hook up to the H it's raining today so we got to be inside for the 40 training not going to work not enough Gra RP slipped out the back we didn't have turf outside we had never worn cleats on this Turf inside which isn't meant for cleats the surface inside isn't the best Turf for 40 training just cuz it's hard to get a lot of grip on it you were trying to feel feel like you didn't get as much lean so then you just didn't really get out but I think you're trying to get grip on the turf yeah I want to go out there and have such an amazing performance that the Bears whoever ends up trading to be the number one pick is like man we cannot pass on Rome he is the best player and we need to go get him it's not one thing it's the other I guess with this 40 my gosh conditions obviously aren't exactly what we wanted right but more than anything We're just trying to get those legs going yeah no it'll come together it's God's plan you know just got to hit it once n it's all good I I mean circumstances is what we could do so go get it our lift we did some lower body power focusing on the vertical as we're getting a little bit closer to Indie no way I don't know about that still sticking to the process still you know each and every one of these days taking advantage of it give me that 60 here let's go come on 58 hey hey so way up ultimately we're trying to give him as much spring and pop as we can to jump as high as we can as far as we can he's in a good spot right now so ultimately it's going to depend on where he gets his reach at there we go there we go when I pick something up I want to be great at it off the rip until I feel like I'm great at it I'm all go towards it I touched that Oney that's a PR right there now go get it I hit 11 ft today which is a good Benchmark to hit just of where I'm at put me in the range of jumping something pretty good at the combine so overall was a successful day it was a good day today today we are here at Heritage High School we had a mck pro day today we just ran through a mock pro day you know we're not telling them their numbers as they're going through so they're they asking questions how did I look what did I do with the combine being a week away we're putting a lot of emphasis on just making sure that we're cleaning up all the speed techniques having to warm themselves up we gave them minimal cues and this is the first time that they can actually experience like damn maybe I didn't warm up enough or maybe I didn't get enough intens on their reps your your play style your film all that speaks for itself take care of the 40 answers all the questions Koolaid come on cool I feel like when I did my first one I went warmed up enough I feel like when we transition from drill to drill I should have warmed up more and got my legs a little more hotter I think this is going to be a good learning experience for us because a lot of us didn't trust the technique a lot of us ran full speed for the first time during our first 40 which we talked about we can't do that right get tall get small jump out ah I got to stick that for me Co come on I we've got to lock in these next 10 days know do or die right now they all got treatments yesterday that we still lifted this week so we expect them to be a little bit fatigued looking forward to their bodies feeling better and really get that Symphony of speed to work the right way when we head him to Indie just going to do it for us here in Florida man I see you guys in any shout out overtime what does it take build a legacy hard work Unapologetic commitment to being yourself and overcoming any road blocks along the way that's my plan for the next chapter come along for the [Music] ride we you talk about in 15 minutes you know it's like speed dating a little bit uh no not really if if they are you know I can't control at this point just played two seasons fully healthy I had meeting with Dr ELR he gave me the thumbs up said I'm clear he said my body look good I look healthy I'm ready I'm up there on the podium somebody go with everybody saying that your draft stocks like falling how do you feel about you know your Drive St how big of a chip do you have on your shoulder somebody said that where you heard that at I don't know somebody somebody may have they may have or they did how do you think you fit in with that offense to be honest I feel like I can fit in with any offense have you met with the Buccaneers at all man I just feel like I'm a leader how you meeting with Denver go and who do you feel as your player to is that formal or informal I actually didn't talk to the Seahawks I don't know why that is maybe they know me hope so what do you on do I know for sure I'm throwing I feel like I'm not going to have an incomp completion I'm going to show that you know my accuracy is what you see on tap can you give us the scouting report on R [Music] dday yo what's good how y'all doing see y'all what's up B me I'll do the full workout oh I mean just get jiggy do I think birds are real yeah everything but pigeons pigeons are fake I feel like this class has a bunch of you know 6' 2 6' 3 6' whatever the hell Johnny Wilson is you think you can land a plane in case of emergency absolutely not we are going down All Souls have perished my man got three questions you got to cut them off you seem very comfortable in this setting where does that come from I don't know probably comes from these guys up front the udub social media team they always putting cameras in my face and making me do things that I don't want to [Music] do I want to run sub 44 thanks very much thank you nice easy power skip I will say track conditioning is different than football conditioning today is about feeling the fort it was good for injury prevention also just building my trunks building my legs up just cuz you got a lot of good condition in track doesn't mean you'll be able to last on the football field but it does translate a little bit basically what we want to do is give a chance for people to have a dress rehearsal of the process and go through the full run with the with the the same lead in and the same warmup and that sort of thing just so they understand The rhythms of what it's going to feel like and they can try to make some adjustments and visualize what they're feeling a little bit three steps to try to feel your first three off the line one two three real smooth doesn't have to be 110% out of the first two but get on it and then carry that 95% all the way through 25 for the combine I'm working on all the drills whether it's the elome vert Rod 40 just making sure I'm on my aame for that event making sure I'm putting out the best product that I'm capable of putting out flat 03 so [Music] yes I feel solid I got a little bit ahead of myself I don't think Rome hit his best run today but it gives him a chance to go through that rehearsal so he has an idea of where things might be my posture just isn't [Music] good it's how I run bro I got a long shot I look slow you lowkey do got like a whole battery on on your back too don't that don't help at all dragging me down that's going to add time you can blame over time I blame overtime what were your numbers my numbers are solid my numbers are quick I don't know if I can give any specifics it will be a surprise when y'all are watching that's that Kool-Aid and I man we're very close-knit very tight if he's on the right side he just made a play I'm like okay man if they throw this ball my way I got to make a play with the media I mean I even told a lot of coaches like they like to pair us up against each other and with that being said we laugh at it because I mean that's my brother and we work hard we play for each other so it's friendly competition we challenge each other and we make each other better and that's why we're both here I love them just sitting there I'm in a meeting with the team and just bro heartbreak Emoji like you guys told me before that the Medicals would definitely be the most important thing of it's shocking news yeah definitely especially when you're feeling good mry is in the building but not coming to the podium I got there probably about like 10:00 go to the first doctor room and you know just talking through my things they pulling and doing they doing their job or whatever they MRI my ham screen didn't say nothing about that nothing like I had already told him it's clean just a little sore whatever they i r my feet next of course I was saying I'm good get it don't hurt it don't bother me at all soon as I got out the Mr room I see my doctor he's telling me like yeah man I know you're not going to want to hear this yeah I just seen on his face you knew Koolaid mckinstry will not participate in the NFL combine here in Indianapolis duude to a Jones fracture in his foot this one right here this feel brand new like it feel new feel like a regular foot you're going to have real adversity moments this is a little bump yeah and so like it's disappointing but you're going to be playing football on sun [Music] this um no I feel like I can fit into any schin as a quarterback I feel like if if I went to a team that play more off zone or if I went to a team that play Man they'll be getting the same player that would have the same production lot has been about your what's kind of your mindset people always question L speed because you really can't find no plays where I'm beat or where I'm having to use lone speed because I do a good job of keeping guys cut off and I feel like as a DB if you if you run as fast as you can some something not good my mentality for the combine you know is basically just make sure I put my best foot forward doing whatever I can make sure stay healthy I stay strong you know throughout this long process so for the combo I'm just going to throw this time you know just show my arm Talent you know just allot the coaches to be able to to see me see me throw in person but you know I'll probably save the rest of the stuff for pro day you know if I want to run and you know do anything else you know but for the combine I'm just going to probably throw if you're claustrophobic you can't do that you can't do it it's going to start your pressure off kind of crazy you get in there it kind of feel like you on a like your first ever plane ride you're going to go down about 11 ft below sea level you got to sit there and pop your ears I know it just like helps with healing process you know it helps with blood flow Mike called me at 6:15 a.m. this morning call you came in jumped in the hyper baric chamber then got body work then got breakfast then measurements you can just tell he was locked in you want to stay in longer I I have no problem that's the best thing he could say well this is much better we're measuring the flexion extension sort of the anterior we call anterior posterior range of his hips oh that's 23 so that's good I met doc last year you know just had some conversation with him and be able to work with him and you know obviously he y'all hear him talking he know exactly what he doing and he makes me feel better every time I leave here there you go all right I'm glad my head wasn't underneath I know the NFL this game of longevity and it's like you got to make sure you take care of your body to be able to you know last a long time in the Le you can see he's just never nervous yeah he knows what he can do he's confident he's just composed he has incredible composure this is what Mike does I bet you every coach his high school coach and his college coaches they all say the same thing yeah for me I'm going to do whatever I can to you know help my body stay healthy it all is going to pay off at one day so I take it all serious [Music] o see what y' boy going to start it up how would yall experience at the combine like I salute people who do good at combine bro if you can go out there and perform like that after all that stuff they put us through it's a mental and physical test bro that's all it is been cooking all right Koolaid see you put them GES on there too you ain't slick I had to get you by two on y I had any crazy uh meetings with anybody or they was all smooth oh bro I had one mean they was on me tough what they was on me so hard for I had one team show every pck they show no good play yeah one team did me like that then they call me back like week after like oh yeah we managed our time room at the combine man we just want to let you know that it's a lot of good and way more good than bad but we a't get to show you none of your good Play stra Straight bad play I'm like golly I was wondering like when a team was going to ask one of them crazy questions you know you be hearing about like yeah but I ain't never got you got some crazy will no I ain't getting no crazy questions I got the little bad plays though it was a coach that recruited me he show had got double team and they drove my ass all like the 50 yard line for real it was against uh LSU I know who you are and this is not you why why you're taping a whole bunch of other stuff bro they just kept going bad after bad after bad did you meet with the Texans yeah I met with the Texans yeah and they was actually my first uh top 30 Vision too did you know that when you met with the Texans that they was going to be the one no I ain't going to lie I I didn't know at all bro I thought I was going to Seattle at first cuz Seattle was like if you had five we going to get you they had picked CJ and we was which you already knew cuz they needed a quarterback so I was like I'm going to go to Seattle and they traded up and got me but and it's crazy cuz I'm not lying like they called me we sorry we couldn't get you bro like but we still love your game I'm thinking they calling for that and they was like bro we fin to trade up and get you and I just start going crazy bro cuz I really wanted to go there like I I kept telling the car like bro I don't care what you got to do tell the Texans I want to come there bro right so now it shocked me I'm not going to lie crazy that's [Music] crazy 104 is that good yeah it's my number three overall player my favorite player RS first in this next screw come on Rome go come on Rome yeah that a baby had it baby go get it now first one went 447 stumbled a little bit getting out of the gate it's hard to repeat the intensity going into the second run but beautiful good he did it hit a 445 that's a great number for him so we're we're excited all right one more day of stress for you boys huh we're almost there [Music] that's if he threw an interact a ball all day and he was like yeah he threw one and then he wouldn't leave the line okay in the ground m is cool as the other side of the pillow m r that's what they do all the things that they questioned he answered answered authorly too his balls make Jesus Christ say Jesus Christ see what Jordan SCH said Michael P Jor capped off an excellent week great interviews and clean Medicals with a Flawless throwing session ball was huming and IND was is easy for him yo how you feel out there good look like Mike pen some on the ball Davis well yeah okay like it just look easy for you bro that was the best word that I could use to describe was easy something they gave me a play to remember try to talk to you a little bit ask you different questions and then ask you to draw out the play later on but they want to know like if I can process for real like do I know my protections what was my checks and stuff like that so it was good though he did the damn thing guys he did the D 445 ain't nothing to yeah be salty about n 63 212 running at that speed that's fast son yeah that's true even with my foot like this they'll definitely see that no fast and expected and um I'm ready to show that were you frustrated watching Everybody Run yeah just seeing guys run and not being able to do it definitely feel like I'm in control of prod day so just ready to get there and show what I can do overall like good day you know showed my athleticism I'm gased I'm tired I'm ready to go to sleep thanks for tuning in appreciate y'all I don't want you to worry about time I just want you to worry about the process how are we feeling little tight keep warming up so we'll build up to 40 I'm looking at that this TS under 11 easy smooth and then I'm just going to time you through the 40 but I don't e to run all the way to the 40 hard my foot really don't hurt at all right now like it don't hurt at all today we basically did like a mock 40s the way that it worked is that we we had them do 340s but none of them were all out so giving them opportunity to run fast in different intensity zones cruise to the end so there's there's very little risk on hamstrings or anything like that it's always good when he has a strong opener cool beautiful opener you never open like that I'll get cocky now all right okay at the combine like we were ready we're training in the hallway we were ready to run that 40 and he went and had the MRI found out the foot issue so we had to delay him running the 40 at the combine and kind of just do the interview piece right after that gave him 4 days off he came to Cali and we basically just locked in a schedule for 8 and 1 half days really with you know diet massage stretch PT field work film work speed everything at that point of the process I was feeling good my body was feeling good coming from Florida training into Cali by the time I got to Cali my body was all the way [Music] right promising day I was just feeling perfect man I can't wait to get out there to pro day and just show what I've been working on for these last couple months I know you got all the confidence in the world so man I just can't wait to be able to show them and shut all these people up on your way to the league there's a whole lot of background noise but if you stay grounded stay humble stay focused the rest will take care of itself back at the Ram truck dve house things about to get competitive you already know B versus Washington baby the first challenge cornhole the gods will have 20 seconds to throw eight bean bags each bag in the hole is worth three one bag on the board is worth one who wants to go first here we go here we go you're a quarterback you got you got accuracy you told me man you wouldn't like me in 101s man my ball placement is crazy so let's see oh no oh that's in okay three [Music] four no oh he about h a quarterback five bro look how close that is bro I don't throw check down I throw bomb bom is crazy I'm not going that was a good answer that was a good answer that was a good answer dangerous three five 6 7 8 bang Dam we a need him to throw that last one in there y'all want something to drink got Gatorade water one them g-s you got a [Music] small what s five 10 seconds seven 5 Seconds 4 time 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 coming in at 12 points Birmingham Alabama Kool-Aid mckinstry we got some more challenges coming up so y'all boys y'all have another chance to win [Laughter] soon today pro day not being able to do these drills at the combine was a heartbreaking feeling for me but I'm just blessed to have another opportunity to show who I am as a [Music] athlete be disappointed at the combine that he couldn't run because of what was said I'm definitely going to shock people and show people what I wasn't able to do at the combine definitely going to shock them here at Alabama man in my own environment at my own home just ready to get out there and proove prove who I am and prove that I'm a first round Talent man so you know this moment is definitely big for me and my family it's truly a blessing it really is to see him work so hard to get to this point I'm just ready to get there prove what I got to prove show who I really am and get things done you good it feel good to be here at BMA man back at home man where I really wanted to be where I really love it as [Music] got 5113 5113 they couldn't give you 6 foot right there bro right there I thought for sure you'd have six 196 196 196 skinny boy 196 though vertical jump uh we'll get two jumps just tap at the top don't swing at it my body feels great man since um those last 10 days you guys seen me the foot been good man the foot hasn't been bothering me as much yes sir nice that was my first time really really really jumping um of course I wanted to get higher but it is what it is 34 and A2 much as it should be about the tape and I think he's got the best tape in the draft at the corner position um you know we have these standardized tests to help validate and cross- compare prospects from now and in the past you're not broad you want me to yeah you think you jump over 10 too let's do it did I hear you didn't want to do it and last was like come on man we're doing broad yeah that kind of happened I told him I was going to do it then when it was time to do it I was like nah he was like man do right bet you got to jump over 10 on the first one y i i trained for this moment um 2 months before I was able to um find out that my foot was um fractured you been working out till like 1:00 in the morning and that's why I come in with the stress and out cuz I'm like what time you going to bed he's like don't stress me out Mom I'm not through [Music] yet there you go broad drone was all right man I had to jump too many times they kept scratching me so I was getting very fatigued at it just because you know every time I step I got to take a step back and it just was a lot you know but it was all right junk was all right you know 101 it's the 40 soon this is not the first time you've done this for okay hey treat whatever you want but we'll stop timing [Music] 40 last 10 days man I really just been focusing on my start just getting my start all the way down pack making sure those first 10 yards was fast as possible just as much as you need to be physically ready to run you need to be mentally ready to run in Indianapolis the combine he was planning on running you then layer on this news of like hey you have a broken foot this might may or may not hurt your draft stock like he just wasn't in the right place to run we knew we had prod day doctors confirmed he could do it so we said you know what just focus on getting through the week we came up with a plan that we're going to run a 44 cuz that's a little bit faster than what people expected and then do the surgery second [Music] people question his top end speed and when I first brought that to Kool-Aid attention he he had an organic instant response people always question my lone speed because you really can't find no plays where I'm beat or where I'm having to use lone speed because I do a good job of keeping guys cut off and I feel like as a DB if you if you run as fast as you can some some not good once I saw him this morning I knew I I could see it in his eye like he he was focused he was ready how'd you feel when you woke up today ah anxious like I had to get out here and do it I was ready to get here [Music] [Applause] mry I really ain't think man just got up there and ran yes when you cross the line did you know what you ran no I didn't know what I ran at all man I just was hoping it was fast that was excellent oh this SK you know you never know how sure it really is but when you told him what I had was like damn that's good fing boy it was just important to change the myth that he was a low four five's guy and give him the facts that he was a mid four Four's guy [Music] to come here and to run with what was said it's it's a blessing and we thank God for hey it was good Buzz I saw four Watchers at 447 48 46 as far as the football goes that comes natural to him finally hit me in s best why you been here pick me it's a short bet got experience like a wolet the best cover and overall Corner in the draft and I think a lot of teams agree with that drills went great man I feel like I was moving out there moving smooth did a good job out there trusting my technique trusting what I was taught man he had fun doing those drills CU that's something he likes to do that's what I do play football so I knew that wasn't going to be a problem big weight on the shoulders man question answer buz was good after to the games fans right there us to be crazy like I us come do media with me and we to snuck you out the back door yeah definitely but that used to be crazy all the fans had to just put my airpods in just walk [Music] a bit different out here man definitely a lot quieter man you know when I first walked in man you know kind of caught the chills man I just remember all the Great Moments I had out the games with the guys and the great games that we had caught my first interception right here in this area I was in cover two ball kind of got tipped and I was able to dive up under it and make a play on the ball Kool-Aid mckinstry in perfect [Music] position they placed our parents right up there where it say GG and H H if I couldn't find my mom it'll worri me like just making sure my mom got to the game safe so I always try to find her or have somebody find my mom I remember just sitting on the sideline one time with Malachi I'm like where my mama at bro help me find my mama help me find my mama once I finally found her hey I'm good now I can ball I want him to stay close to home I was grateful that he was at Alabama he was down the street for me I can go to work I can do whatever I need to do if he call I can get there my mom can get there before we used to go in the locker room I used to always hug the gold post it's kind of like me just showing my love to the game like just getting in the hug then after I hug it I always used to P it and just turn around and look then start talking to God and after that talking to myself making sure I'm going back over the keys and the studies that I had from film and I had a good like 5 minutes of that just sitting right here with my eyes closed just going over everything I need to know kind of just gave me a little bit of the Cher like damn I definitely be in a New Jersey next year I definitely be back here at Alabama I love Alabama um childhood dream Childhood school childhood favorite team so this is me man I love Alabama I'm built by by B so this is me I definitely will be back all right y'all we hitting the road so we going to open up the sunroof we're head to Las Vegas my home we're going to go to my high school I'm going to go see Mom maybe do some cooking and do a little bit of training Vegas is such a unique City cuz it doesn't have any set culture you know it's still marinating still building what I really like about the city is you know we're continuing to add different sports teams which wasn't something that I had growing up so I never had like a home team to root for so seeing the Raiders move there having the the golden knights there the aces I'm just really happy to be from the city and see how it's growing my experience at Gorman was a very humbling experience you know it was hard the schooling was hard the the the Athletics was tough so to be able to go through that and experience some of that I think prepared me for for the college level of of Collegiate Sports it's experience that I'm super grateful for for [Music] sure what's up y'all Rome here I'm back in the 702 Las Vegas Nevada at my Al moer High School the Bishop Gorman where the gals [Music] reside follow me they made some improvements since I've last been here so it looks fresher before I was there they had won I think two national championships in a row so coming into that environment it kind of push you to your limits and push you to be the best at everything you're doing or else you're going to fall by the wayside you could just see he was just special height speed all that stuff he had all the intangibles he had a a knack about him a confidence about him a work ethic about him bring back some emotions of the the times I was here the craziness the losses the wins all of it I think he developed the love for it here he bonded with his teammate and they were a really tight group and I think that part is really what you know this place is about man I appreciate it all you guys like mentors of mine so thank you it's good it's good to be back and see y'all faces see y'all doing well saved you from being at the end too that's right oh my gosh that's individual my wife come on now he he sees the talent there's so many different players that come through Gorman and I think I'm in there with some of the best to come out of there else that's another four for you that's a brand new one of your joint that's FY new right there that's you oh my goodness this this when I was there I gave him my all and you know I've been giving my all to bring honor to them so I'm just honored to be part of it n this is sick this is going up and never coming down good coach V he's been a mentor of mine for a long time I've been training with him ever since high school track I was a state champ in track in the 200 I would have went crazy my senior year in track but Co came first time meeting Rome I look and I see R I'm like oh man this he can go first play R's back deep for the kickoff he runs it back and it was like I don't know like 80 plus yards return and we're like I guess we're in the game the mindset behind track like it's just you out there you against the clock there's no hiding there's no taking a playoff taught me that you know every single play I step out on that field I need to be on my a game they see the glory but they don't really know the story when they call his name I don't know I mean I'll probably be like you know I might get a little choked up and emotional because I just know like how tough he is get better what every day every day that's something get your money get your money let's go eat yes sir set go come on a pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up pick it up and good there you go all right that's it good good there we go 197 what's your fastest on this thing that might be it might be uh I think the fastest either was 199 198 somewhere I don't know that might be yeah prob been there from the start start so he he's always there to support me he's always got my back special it's awesome to be able to be in this position and you know honor him in my work ethic and the way I come out and grind every single day so it's a blessing for Rome to go out there and do his thing and whether he wants me up front or in the background to know that I can handle anything CU my father and my family is behind me so uh no one can mess around with me you know you got to pay tuition when you come here so my Mom and Pops was grinding you know my mom was working several jobs pops was working several jobs cuz they knew you know it would provide opportunities for me in the future so I'm super grateful for the sacrifice that they were be able to [Music] make all right we'll start it again uh many of you guys know know this young man that played here sat in these same exact seats mrun is here Rome what's good with y'all man what's good um I'm super excited to be back I used to sit in these chairs and be like man once I get to College I'll be I'll be cool or once I get to the NFL everything will be cool I'll be able to chill man this life thing man there's never chill there's never chill it's always being able to improve and get better it's kind of cool to see him come back and talk to the guys you know I can still see him sitting here you know and how he was as a young man and and watch the maturity that he has the level that he's went to take advantage of where you're at I come back here in the summer times at 115 that heat I can't even take it no more man so trust me when you out there and you're doing it in that 115 and that's just hard as hell just know people ain't doing that regularly Rome was on the the quieter side he was just more dialed into what he wanted to do you know you could see he had a vision for what he wanted and he was focused laser focused on doing that part keep doing your thing um if you ever got any questions man hit me on the gram um I'll give Coach my phone number if you ever want to text me for some some advice or anything man I'm I'm here High School football is tough a a lot of uh pressure and all especially on this stage so for me to be able to be kind of a a Beacon of Hope for those guys and isn't an awesome position to be in thank you guys for having me man go GS appreciate y'all my next chapter has finally arrived but the journey to get here it was never easy but with a little bit of courage and confidence in the path forward Reaching Your Dreams is always [Music] possible back at the Ram truck Draft House it's time for the QB skills challenge Mike you're obviously the favorite here but you never know you'll get nine attempts to throw to the Target three bonus points if you hit all three targets any questions let's do it let's go o Curry too far back for o oo that's a sweet spot okay cool [Applause] [Music] that went in too that did not go in that did not go in but got six of them things okay okay okay okay I told y I was a quarterback back in the day 3 2 one oh oh oh yeah I got him bang one bang what oh yeah there it is there it is that's that's three bonus points that's six how you get six that's six cuz you making each one then there three bonus points at the end oh I didn't know that you wasn't paying [Music] attention but that's not even fair I ain't going make all oh that's hot we got them rattled I like pressure yep stand on this side though six no he don't he got all three bro oh it came out heard that one me roll sh so that don't count that don't count I'm sorry bro qb1 did not deliver like he was supposed to bro but we got a top breaker wrong Kool-Aid we up in the states we got five balls that see who comes out on top but now I know the rules all right brother lock in give me that give me that bro you got the that's who I know right there all right I Ain got to say nothing that time I ain't have to say nothing hey two out of two out of two out of five see what you got he love them threes boy yep uhoh oh Kool-Aid oh give him [Music] [Applause] top silence I done lost everything silence and the winner for the QB challenge Kool-Aid seven points it's me I ain't trying to hit two though I you know how two went in what's up y'all I'm home so of course we're back at the crib getting the homecooked meal from my mom she's going to be cooking up the obono soup which is from my Nigerian side which she was blessed enough to receive the recipe for it may not just be as good as how my grandma cook it but it's pretty close it's pretty close just turn the heat on medium about we'll throw in our palm oil the palm oil also gives a flavor to the dish so I'll throw a little beef broth in here and then I like to add the oono earlier rather than later when you came to us at 4 years old wanted to play football we offered to put you in flag and you said not I want to play with pads so you put on those pads and now look where we are she has been a a very big part of of pushing me to where I am today you know she's always you know first to to check in on me and see how I'm doing and and uh be there for me my grandparents on my Pop's side came over here with basically nothing and they're proud Nigerians and and that's kind of the culture of it you know they're very prideful and very family orientated we'll we'll check in with Grandma yeah I mean our recipe should face no we probably should huh [Music] Grandma we're uh filming a little show where we're cooking up the the OG OB obono soup it's close to your recipe you know I told her she still got you know some work to do to to learn from the OG cook thank you thank you very much I try my best to you know honor the culture and honor where I've come from by uh a lot of it playing football and you know people saying that name on my back which I'm super super prideful [Music] of so I just added some of the the stock from the stock fish cooking I mean that's going to add some flavor and then really you just add Add Water getting ready to dive in I'm about to I'm about to take over M it's my turn to to finish the rest of it all right no this is my part of the show so I'm taking over from here all right here we go how much spice we adding today I'm just going to start I'm going to start with a little bit I'm not going to go too crazy we can add it from there I like it a little mild spice I like to walk away with my taste buds still it's cook the fuo it's really easy just boil in water add the fofu stirred up it's a signature to the dis you can't just have the soup by itself I mean you can't but you got to have the fofu with the dip and the the circles and all that okay yeah it's a little stickier than I like right now I might need to add a little bit of water two swipes back to it put the heat back on this is unscripted right now this is now this is an audible play oh yeah I still got it still got it here it is nothing too crazy it's steaming cuz it's super hot so you got to wait a little bit you can put the meat in too if you want it's fine we like the meat tender cuz when you eat it you want it to just kind of Fall Apart you know what I'm saying it's just just comes natural to me you know what I'm saying I like to think that the the flick of the wrist and the spin you know adds the flavor to [Music] it mhm it's a good batch oh spicy okay the technique why don't you explain it all right so you just grab your fuu I like to roll it up in a little ball kind of like this and then you you just go in um scoop it up just like that down that mhm how's that it's a good batch BR I pull out the box of all of your Elementary stuff I was going through it cuz I knew you were coming home so okay you want to see some stuff yeah let's get into it oh okay okay okay do say fifth grade A athletes of the Year okay oh yeah no y'all got to show this zoom in on that hey he hey hey hey put me on the honor roll you know what I'm saying like come on now okay right here this is uh this is the note that I got while I was in class from the head football coach at Gorman at the time he brought me in to tell me that I was getting moved up to Varsity from The Freshman Squad so Mom had the insight to you know keep yeah hang on to that I'm not really the type to keep a bunch of um what's it called sentimental stuff but it's always fun to be able to look back on some of this stuff you know a lot of people when we're out and about they know you Rome Rome Rome you know can you sign this can you sign that and so that's exciting for me to witness but you know Rome's the kid that calls me and says hey Mom can you cancel my debit card I lost it in our eyes he's you're my son you know you're just my son and but I still am super grateful and proud of you for everything that you've accomplished something that I think I learned from my grandpa and from my Nigerian family is that it takes a village it's not just two parents that raise a child or a coach you know in my instance when it revolves Sports it's you know the combination of all these different people in your life who you know invest in you and support you that's something that I always carry with me respecting all those people around me that have continued to support me since I was born up until this point Seattle sports star a year award All Sports in Seattle you know you got just all different teams and they pick like I guess who they feel is was the star of the year I was nominated for it last year last year Julio Rodriguez won he was the baseball player nominated again for another year so it's pretty cool see my suit my boy Ron he couldn't make it because he's out training still and I got my workout in this morning and I flew out I'm not really missing any days still making sure I'm on top of my stuff oh man it might be bad might be bad I told my mom I thought I had shoes here I ain't been back here in a while I thought I had shoes in here there it go I was like dang you have to wear you some I going to wear these right here look at them I going to wear [Music] these what's wrong with your tie you're not tie I'm growing up like I always hear people like your pots was the truth in football like he was a running back so he had a little Savvy to him too go around one side and go around the other side to help with that little V shap he taught me like you know mental physical toughness he' one of the biggest reasons I was able to bounce back through a lot of my adversity I'm too [Music] clean what did will forever live on in Seattle every time I walk out in the city you know I get a lot of love and respect from a lot of people the Husky fans husky Nation the support is crazy it's unmatched you know the city showed me so much love from day one your boy education needs everything stand up Olivia nice me too all right it's great to be back home away from home even though I'm thousands of miles away man every time I come here I feel like I'm back at home thank you how are you feeling to be here tonight thank you not for the program you know who that is s bird the basketball player the best like for real see how the storm the Seahawks you got the Mariners Kraken you got all these teams there a lot of great athletes all [Music] around I'm thirsty man I've been talking I ain't drink no water yet and the winner of the sports star of the Year men's sports award Michael penx Jr congratulations thank so much no I just want to leave the Legacy just leave my mark in the game be able to show the younger generation you know that is possible you know especially going through a lot of adversity I've been through always believe and always continue to push forward you know just trusting trust in what you believe in [Applause] [Music] dog look like what does it take build a legacy hard work Unapologetic commitment to being yourself and overcoming any road blocks along the way that's my plan for the next chapter come along for the ride all right so how we feeling about pro day what do you want to do I'm thinking about doing a bench and L drill you can't get past this bench thing I knew you were going to say that so I so I've called GMS about it and asked them and all of them have said don't let them do it because look you go do call it 16 reps 18 reps 20 reps no one cares it doesn't make a difference worst thing that can happen is you know you tear a peack so we got to avoid that for me I think it's just been like I want to do everything in the combine and that's like the last thing I didn't do so I think it's just been like lingering on my mind but I hear you I mean I love that like you're a competitor you want to do everything but we also got to be smart about it and you got to know the risk and the reward and in this case I don't think the risk is worth the reward so last night I took some scouts out and we were hanging about the guys that you know I'm representing at udub today but one of them was telling me they have a system in their scouting lingo that they everyone gets a red star so it's one guy that you get to put the red star on that's my dude that I would I'll jump on the table for and two guys last night were like RS might D this year let's go yeah it was awesome they were fired up about you so good you fired up yeah no it's shoot one of the last steps in the process almost there [Music] so what led me to Seattle all the way on the other side of the country from where I'm from you know but super blessed that I made that decision because you know just trusting coach dor and just wanting to be with him again for another year and actually tur into two years you know it definitely paid [Music] off the biggest thing that surprised me just actually just seeing mountains and stuff cuz in Florida like it's so flat like you don't have any mountains you only have Hills and they're not that big you know to be able to experience Hiatt and you know obviously our stadium was on the water which was amazing you can see Mount rineer from the coach's offices it was it was pretty cool setup so I'm super blessed that I was able to do that and be able to experience [Music] that 216 216 R 30 68 yeah pro day was fun just being able to be around my teammates again you know kind of for the last time you know together PEX hand 10 and 48 arm 33 and 5/8 Wing 81 and 58 pro day is a special time you know especially for us having so many people being able to come back and you know perform in front of all these Scouts Rome T 9 and 28 6030 you know to go out there and compete and you know put our best foot for you know in front of different NFL coaches and Scouts you know it definitely a fun experience and you know that will forever remember it's going to be a great day I can't wait man I can't [Music] wait good to meet you are you doing anything today no I won't off for my [Music] guys that's what about that's why you go out there that's why football is so fun cuz you're out there with your brother so that aspect of good locking guy I'm not here to create no drama I'm not a diva wide receiver I work for the video Department you hella cool for like my students I just want to say appreciate I got you you know some people see me I got blonde braids I got a nose ring you know I'm light skinned which kind of creates some sort of like oh he must be flashy he must be like full of himself plus I play receiver and at that position I think a lot of guys kind of tend to be that way sometimes but I'm chilling you know I treat you know everybody I I talk to with respect I'm just me I'm just a genuine person I'm just like all you watching I'm feeling great man man yeah it's good to see you guys yeah you're a good player good person tools man thank you I appreciate thank you good to see you man what are some misconceptions you think people have about you that I can't run I can run if I don't got to run I'm not going to run but I can run though because Mike processes so well and he gets the ball out of his hand so quickly he doesn't have a lot of those runs sometimes lazily people don't think he's athletic highlights was definitely getting to see Mike do to 40 I just wanted to make sure I write my own narrative you know just not not allow somebody else to write my story and me I'll just go out there and show you I'm going to show that you know I'm athletic I can run I can jump I'm going do those things I don't think people expected for him to run as fast as he ran today they got to stop sleeping on him go get it mate me I I did the 40 you know did both of my jumps ver and BR I feel like I did pretty well I don't see why anybody would be shocked for my vertical yeah Mike I wasn't shocked I thought I was going to do better he can turn High my baby could jump he why y'all playing with why yall playing with him know he's got that athleticism and he just shows up when the lights are the brightest every time man every time he's spinning the rock he's going to put on the show throwing the football is what he does he's just natural at it throwing session was was something special to watch He's I don't feel like anybody can make the throws I made I feel like I'm number one without a doubt without a question about it you know that's how I got 1600 right there and you just see the ball just jump out of his hands and the ball gets downfield 65 to 70 yards with ease it was no goal in mind it was just to show himself as Michael pinnick and I think anybody that was able to watch that they saw a unique talent you should have to pay to get in here watch Mike throw the ball being able to go back there you could feel you know everybody's energy in the air and the emotions were high so it was definitely a good time just watching all all the boys compete I thought the bench session as a whole was a lot of excitement just everybody hooting and hollering let's go baby and so now we've gotten past the Olympics and so now it's just back to football it was easy though it was like snug right like J why white coco butcher yeah I remember that we're in the Ram truck film room and we about to see who's really like that in high school who's trying to go first I think Mike got to go first yeah quarterback day County Temple tit action okay catch a thr slant ooh o you not getting out of that get out of there bro I knew you oh get out of there k then that was tough this was your senior year yeah it my senior year I made it play up right here I told him I said when I fake it just run up the sideline I'mma throw that throw it back to you they ain't going to see oh y'all threw the basketball the basketball highlights hey this boy you just dunking everything Mike nice I didn't know he was dunking and doing all that though coola got it pvhs high school that b right though n this my senior I boy that receiver my gosh I told y'all boys I was wild out yeah this is game winning touchdown state championship right here ooh hey oh ni you snap that hard ooh the onehanded you got the one on too yeah you know that let me get that oh basketball highlights too he why your hell I hit the backboard that boy got Ultra bunnies he just floating like surprised me he done got went to B

that oh Bo gone hey not you through the Deuces that's a block hey meet him at the Go line hey hey that was bad boy good catch you guys think the best who have the best he went the flex up he went the flex down and then he gritted into it like [Music] they call it the greatest setting in college football for a reason it's not just the stadium it's the university as a whole it's you know mount rineer in the background it's the lake right behind that you can see the city of Belleview Skyline in the background statues cherry blossom trees it's like a Bob Ross painting I guess you could say [Music] walk through the stadium with Rome one of the last times you know it's definitely special you know just you know remembering all the moments that we had and all the big time accomplishments we were able to make on that field you know a tremendous place to play in when it's getting rocking like that and it's a tremendous place to just go there and be in awe of and appreciate the beauty of the whole scenery you know in my time at University of Washington I never lost a home f is Rowdy for the whole game it's crazy it's rocking electric yeah it's electric it feeds you that energy that gets you hype get you going for the game right over there that whole section that's like all the student section the band they be rocking over there you see him score he' be like to the students I I never I never was able to do that but I try to come down there and get in in the in the frame I be too late the celebration be over by the time I get there dangerous it started in aome season is everybody believing in 2023 I remember far km I had an interview they like what's your goals for the I'm like winning the national championship and a lot of people probably chuckled at it being Underdog five six weeks in a row you know just continuing to show that we got what it takes for us it was just we just knew we was talented and we knew we could accomplish great things you know we beat a good Oregon team twice we beat a good Texas team we knew we could be at the very top of college football day in and day out you know even when other people ain't beli in us you know we continue to believe in each other favorite play organ a back shoulder to him yeah yeah it was loud ready he drops back he looks to his oneone he has his guy back [Applause] shoulder like let's go that was crazy and then I jumped into the big boys and they held me up yeah that one was up there for [Music] sure was just about exceeding our own expectations exceeding everybody else's out there and getting it done you know was able to make it to the National Championship we didn't get to the top like selfishly we got it because we was leaning on one another and that Brotherhood was strong I meanti would have felt great but we did what we had to do and did what a lot of people a expect us to do so that was our goal to be in that game but it was to win it and we didn't man we we showed so much you know growth and maturity just showed that we dogs man we put us back on on top of our conference my times in college I already know are some of the going to be some of the best memories I'll ever have so I'm definitely going to miss it and definitely going to be going back there as a fan cheering on the [Music] huskys pik's place they got a famous thing where they throw the fish and a lot of people gather around and watch it I've been down to pik's place numerous times I've never caught a fish all right before we head out man y'all know we got to make one more touchdown pass before we leave see so let's get to it this the one y'all be messing with people with huh oh the monk fish yeah thing pretty crazy huh up man how you doing man it got to be accurate boy it's like small I'm going to throw it in this spot hey good luck bro you get a little bit of curve in it right yeah you're going to yell TT that means that we're just throwing it nobody's buying this one right TT TT right it's not it's not slippery it's not all right you ready hey TT TT hey yeah every was supposed to flip like that back flip it was a trick right oh yeah oh my go possibly seeing the last time me throwing the ball to Rome in Seattle that's going to be you know weird weird story to tell the grandkids but hopefully we can get some training in so I don't have to mention that being the last thing I ever caught back [Applause] Jack it was a great moment you know greatest experience that thing sliming it was cool to finally be you know a part of that tremendous Seattle SL Pikes Place tradition I knew it wasn't going to be no drops so all good I knew he was going to put it on the [Music] money [Music] nice I love Birmingham of course I think about where I'm from and um I feel like where I'm from made me who
