it [Music] [Applause] listen we got two special guests today they were phenomenal phenomenal football players in college usually for most to transition into the NFL it takes some time but Year One both of them in their respective crafts hit the ground running and they missed a [ __ ] beat I'm gonna leave it at that you can do the rest of your homework yourself because they greeted what they do Jalen the penguin waddle and we got the other kid from the yeah clap from the dog man yeah yeah at the boot I said it right yeah yeah at the boot we got Jamal gritty Chase the numbers speak for itself so we're gonna get the show going both both of these guys set rookie records rookie rookie records we're not even talking about them breaking your records right right but 104 receptions set a rookie record 100 and 1455 yards instead of working record and then not on top of that what you did in the playoffs which a lot of people don't get that kind of success in their first season going to the Super Bowl when was your Super Bowl trip I'm just most people playing Madden no the the thing which it has to not just their skill set but the colleges that they play for and having players that young already NFL ready there's a huge learning curve in transition from being a senior or Junior whenever you come out to get into the NFL and being able to adjust and the fact that even was able to adjust off the back like that you know and I'm speaking from a point of almost jealousy in a sense because God damn what took you so long hold on he didn't even play a whole year though Nick he set out a whole year and still and still did the numbers that he did man that speaks a lot of of hard work and dedication but thank you all for coming bro like so like first let's get into how is it now though you know yeah the real life now like uh I know what college was like but right now y'all are the guys bro like um you had a chance to go to the Super Bowl you just really broke everybody hope in Miami um like what is it like now how's the DMs like what is it is it crazy now like I ain't gonna let like everyday life I've been here you know for almost a year but this is my first time actually like enjoying Miami you know I've been here working until then so the off season I haven't had like three months or two months off since High School probably just not doing nothing I feel like but everyday life is just regular I mean Miami just you see players here throughout the whole year just coming to you so I feel like Miami just where everything be at for real I mean for me it was fun you know I'm saying everything going on it's lit to be honest made it to Super Bowl uh you know I'm saying I came out here HOA get that working me some people connect you know what I'm saying so it's a good experience you know I got to meet with juice finally got to work out with him so you know a couple of receipts I want to meet uh you know I want to finally start working out with those guys so I know Miami to be the place to you know everybody work out with the receiver so that's why I won't be at why is that important why why is it important to work out with guys that you've probably looked up to going back to your LSU career I know you Alabama you you on a roster with what six first round wide receivers so why is it important to to get that mentorship yeah for me I just want to you know pick their brand see what they thinking um you know I'm saying like every receiver is different you know so they got Shifty they got big receivers they got small receivers quick receivers you know what I'm saying everybody got their different type of game so uh you know you meeting new people you want to figure out how they play their game when you're watching you're watching them work out you see how a good deal in person so that's when you get to ask questions that's when you get to you know put some of your game in a game and you're just taking everything that's when you're getting better around everybody so you know that's what I want to be you know be great get better develop my game you think you think they had you had you played with two at Alabama too right in fact you think y'all success making it that transition into the NFL had something to do with you also having the same quarterback in college I think make it easier like that you're already through it with someone before I feel like just a repetition it's like kind of like riding a bike like just going back you know how the ball comes he's thinking so I feel like it is definitely easier I think it's an advantage for sure I mean you took it right off the bat honestly you know I came in met Joe two years and then my third year we finally really connected you know what I'm saying so it's cool having that experience you know I'm saying you don't really get to see it a lot so it was easy adjustment AJ coming from the SEC ball playing with Saban how much is that so much close of what you're doing now like how how how are you preparing you guys to compare to right now is it is it real similar is it different because it seems like you guys from Alabama is mixed up and same thing with the receivers from LSU you know like you can go down the line we'll ask that question later about how many of the greats done came up but like I'm just trying to figure out like what is this the south in there man that's the program the program is it's just they teach you so much not just football but in life for like progress that's your heart like every day is something and it's competing against the best you know every day not just the best on the other side but best in room I'm in the room with Russ Smitty Jew and also I think we them guys right and it's not a bad competition it's we're gonna make that play at practice and I'm gonna be like Ugh we're gonna do this we're gonna do this then we got DBS on the other side we got this we got pep we got all these guys that think they them guys so we just bring out the best of you so when you go to the NFL when them guys really is everyone on the field yeah it's the same all day like so I think that's what that's what it is what is the what is the competition level I mean we all know the SEC is is the big dog of college football at least y'all y'all want you know back in back in my day the canes and FSU used to be what Alabama it was the Big East back then oh I don't know if it was the Big East so it was it was it was the Big East back then bro what was it it was the Big East I'm telling you know I talk about West Virginia Tech yeah but when you get to the NFL what's it like that competition level is it similar to what you see at Alabama and LSU I think so like it should be physical out there like it's your physical gain you're going against the best especially when you match up against LSU we know they're gonna bring their best game now we're gonna gotta bring our best game so it's like best on best and a lot of the guys you play against in LSU you're going to see in the next level oh there guys so I mean a lot not a physical standpoint definitely is doing that's all it was in college especially SEC but back I feel like not in the league I don't know I mean this is my first year but like like you said Joe was recorded by everything came I felt like that was a smooth transition for me I felt like I was back in college to be honest like everything just worked out so we we got into the smooth transition but your start wasn't as smooth that training camp where you were dropping the balls what what was the issue I don't know and I'm looking at my hands like I don't know man I got a I had a radio show in Cincinnati yeah yeah and I said all it just got to slow down for him yeah the man ain't played football in a whole year once the game slow down for him he gonna be cool I end up bumping it to him one night I said man you remember what you told me now man you say you gonna break every goddamn record I came here today I said man God damn boy you told me you was gonna do let me tell you why I'm such a big fan though when the pastor would drop it I remember sending a tweet out they ain't gonna take no time because obviously taking it off it only takes so long before you get back in the Rhythm right when he said imma break every record and I already knew what time it was when he said it because don't nobody talk like that going to the next level unless they really like that yeah so I already knew what time it was so when the records started being broken people saw tweets like listen man I think you were the last one to talk like that though trap yeah I already knew it was gonna have the board I knew it set them off you hot sauce them see this is a good question for for the Next Generation wide receivers do you think that anybody can y'all might be too young to even know what this man did in his prime no like in his prime he would have a board with every DB that he would face and check them off when he got off on them and talk all week about what he's going to do could you do that in today's NFL I ain't gonna lie I feel like like on the social media probably wasn't as big probably back then didn't even exist like I'm sad people I feel like in our society like people yeah but still what's the difference what's the difference in him not even playing an NFL snap and saying what I'm gonna do and then mother's going to do it that's the same thing it was a couple of people who tried to who tried to say something about that too actually the one lady who said something I won't say no name was the first lady who put the mic in his face when uh we won the playoff game I said ain't this some [ __ ] right here this is the same lady who go down you need to worry about winning the whole game with the Bengals or something something I'm like you got to be kidding me she the first lady the first lady that he get to run to once we were in the first place I have no idea who you're talking about the name he knows I know if when you go when you can walk it and talk it yeah to walk in and talking they wanna I hate using the word humble but they they want you to play the game quietly yeah they want you to be humble they want to dim your light man God I bless you with a certain gift God bless you with a certain Talent obviously most of us aren't visible unless you Market yourself unless if the NFL ain't Market you got to do it yourself the NFL Network markets no they're not but yeah I mean y'all don't know that yet have fun yeah have fun with it I don't know if you're not a quarterback the NFL not gonna Market you no matter no matter how big or how good you are if you're not a quarterback the NFL you could look at Eric look at Aaron Donald Aaron Donald is the best defensive player probably arguably top five player in the league right now do you see the NFL marketing him but what I'm saying it's easy to Market offense YouTube y'all can be marketing tell them Chad man you can't you can't you need to have a one-on-one with Chad they don't they don't they on the way anyway just off consistency alone just from what y'all did this year and continue to build on that man listen to Cincinnati and Miami for me to be in your hands like this for the Long Haul bruh yeah for the Long Haul speaking of that every man's dream is to go play in the Super Bowl hey everybody in Cincinnati yeah tell me how that [ __ ] feels please tell I know I had to be one of the best it was fun honestly like leading up to everything is buku BS going on like interviews all that other stuff but the countdown is crazy though like Stadium crazy walking in the day before like you you really getting the chills and everything like the day before that's how I was you know what I'm saying you know we took the teen pictures like it was just turned like it was unexplainable for me because I ain't my first championship I won was in college you know I'm saying I really never made it to the championship in football then I got to the NFL and borrow put us on our back and we kept going what's it feel like when you don't cross that Finish Line the victor it hurt it hurt I mean that's when I put everything into that's the reason why I'm playing football you know what I'm saying that's the 17 weeks I'm hurting for you know what I'm saying so when I'm not when I didn't finish it it hurt you know what I'm saying I can't show it too much I'm gonna show it but you know what I'm saying but it just hurt how long did it take you to get over it about three days I mean I enjoyed the process I'm not going to dwell on it I'm saying I'm young like 21. just turned 22 so I'm I'm still living I'm not going to be that hard on myself I remember uh going back to my younger years of Dan Marino he made the championship in his early years and he just thought he'd be there forever he thought he it would be automatic and never got back there I don't feel like that I feel like I got a chance I feel like I got multiple chances now that I got my same quarterback from college and I'm saying it happened before it could happen again so I got a young chance Mike Brown he just made it he just made it raining right now bro notoriously cheap though he broke the bank this year nope nope last year on defense we spent about 200 million another 300 million then he'll be coming to get his 200 million Mike we're gonna give you 30 a year we're gonna give you 30 yeah I'm gonna talk to the Stephen Stephen Ross because he cheap that's cheap he just spent the second most money in in the off season again who Steve Ross on the left tackle what do you mean no on the whole team yeah I'm just I'm just you know I can say this you can't say nothing they spent like 89 million 89 guaranteed dollars his new wide receiver teammate Tyreek Hill oh okay okay okay Tyree kill the left tackle now now Tyrique talked about I'm gonna be deadly he wants a race uh uh he has to establish his dominance he's the fastest man on the team uh you open and willing to accept that challenge I already knew this was coming soon as I seen I'm literally in the middle of workout my trainer comes like man I just got Tyreek Hill I'm like I'm running around the gym I'm like okay then whatever but well I think the next day I see I say man I know he's going to try to raise let me go know his legs real quick hit the legs I'm like I already knew that was coming yeah we for Shogun I already know he's gonna come we just I don't know if it's gonna be like in front of people or he's the fastest I don't seen in person or play it again and that's hard we got a running back 23 miles per hour too oh yeah moisture I got a real track team now so I know he gonna get in on it too so it's gonna be a track meet for sure no we for sure gonna race all right how much do you think all of that speed is gonna try try to open up the offense for the team I ain't gonna lie like it's one thing you can't coach like speed [ __ ] unmatched you really got no answer for that you can try to game plan for it you can try to ain't nothing like it's going so I feel like it's gonna open up everything from in the backfield from the running game passing game play action I'm excited I'm excited it's gonna be a a learning experience but I think it's gonna be fun even even though it's still early I know Mike McDaniels is officer-minded coach right yeah have you had a chance to get any snippet or just a idea what the offense is going to be like since I'm assuming it's going to be different this year um I think you just look back at all the the teams that he's been a part of like he was in Atlanta he was in he was with uh San Fran like just go back and look at it I feel like it's a system that's established and God has success so things don't kind of compliment but you know different weapons different teams so I feel like he's gonna add his own mix to it and try to work with what we got you you had obviously an interesting he had he had a honeymoon season he went to the Super Bowl I mean does it get any better it wasn't 100 more than for us ing this going home early 100 Moon unless I won honeymoon season when you get to go home and you get paid all your money for people at home they get a better understanding of how difficult it is to be a rookie to have a successful season and be 70 percent of the reason why you went to the Super Bowl that's a good percentage too I like that 70. play Madden play Madden for 17 weeks on all Madden and see if you can make it you did it hell no and that's the point on how difficult it is but I didn't play I played what 12 years ain't sniff the circle in the playoff game huh it's hard to win the playoff game better yet or Super Bowl okay so so if he didn't have a honeymoon season I mean things went right for him from the time the regular season got there this is this man you know they started they started off one in seven oh but look how they ended though that's that's that's important too yeah but the whole time your quarterback is under controversy because the head coach is trying to go get another quarterback was it the head coach the person that's sitting all the way at the top that's something as a player that's that's that let's see as a player that's something that's out of your control you can't worry about that but you telling me the distractions don't impact you and your team no no it's still football you gotta get paid but you think distractions bother you man what's you listen once you're inside that building and your safe haven and that green grass between them last it's throwing that noise so so you're telling me that y'all didn't have no conversations about DeShaun Watson as a team and the the month-long pursuit of DeSean Watson law two is their winning games for you okay do we have a meeting no I mean no y'all obviously they had to address it in the meeting yeah hey guys we ain't worried about the two I mean we ain't worried about the uh Sun Watson situation let's keep winning games that's how the conversation go what else do they got they ain't gonna tell you nothing else like like yeah Tennessee like I feel like they do be a media thing like you'd be like so it really be amazing once you go into that locker room going on in practice field it's business all business that's about it so nobody nobody talking about it I mean you're probably talking about a locker room going out you know you got the tag out your helmet that's not a distraction the media creates it when they're issues or there's arguments on the sideline or something goes on in the locker room media oh a distraction man don't care oh I'm sorry people don't care about that okay as as players you you know you have a job to do [ __ ] happens we've been seeing it for for who knows how long it just meteor blows everything out of proportion everything the smallest stuff Tom Brady acting food on the sideline is showing passion goddamn receiver at the foot on the sideline God damn he's crazy yeah he's a distraction it's a problem yeah no it's football it's passion behind it it's like having sex when you see everything that happened with the team transpired in the off season obviously you thought the turnaround was probably going to save Brian Flores and then it doesn't say Brian Flores and then Brian Flores comes out with the lawsuit against the team claiming racial discrimination against the league racial discrimination against the Dolphins what do you think is a player you know me I try to stay in in the player's Lane like I'll try to let the high heels be the higher ups the coaches be the coaches let the players be the players so I'll try not to like really like get into what's going on up there or what they're doing at the end of the day I'm gonna go out there and play with the guys in the locker room not the coaches not the you know hurry up so I try to stay in the players Lane uh trust in the organizations just like I trust in the coaches to do their job and try to do it as best they can but that's just my take on it AJ so we're gonna flip that so as the a player as a guy in the locker room that you know you create buns with um you have the teammate that you used to play with that went through a tragic tragic situation um Henry um have you reached out to him do you know how he's doing mentally um have you just tried to show him any love or your clothes or anything yeah like that bond that I think all the receivers got in that in that room is like I mean that's gonna be like forever like brothers all of them not even the ones you might not even like know about or here that room's kind of close so you know um I mean it's a tough situation especially for a guy like that who really you know it's good a good person yeah you know good doing and out of all of us you know that'd be the person that you least expect something like that to happen to but yeah we we definitely stay in contact um I know he got legal situation I don't want to touch on it like a little too much because I don't know what you know what it's called but yeah I definitely you know he knows much love uh respect I had situations I went through and I had a couple guys that you know stood with me and then I had a couple of them that really didn't give a [ __ ] about me anyway so you know I respect that though I respect that a lot yeah we stay in touch all of us all of us stay in touch but you know it's love over him when it happens to a guy that you said you expected that from the lease what did it teach you about just how fragile everything is it seemed like it can happen to anybody yeah you got your antennas up right like that's just eye-opening and I drive fast cars too and I got a demon I've put it in lunch mode and thank God I've been blessed but like um I don't wish on both ends you know you don't wish that on nobody but what is launch mode up to a certain number which is probably about 700 I think it's 750 in the demon and when you let go it take off on on who what's a demon uh Dodge Demon you know like hell yeah you like you smart your car outside huh yeah he got Rolls-Royce well that's one thousand miles yeah that's fair let's mark how fast in that I got a high booster engine in there wait a minute the rose was him you got the rose that's his I don't drive them yeah hold on wait a minute I've seen him in a smart car in the station wagon and Minivan and the minivan yeah I'm sorry that's not not a station wagon the minivan yes like I know he got it I just know he ain't bringing it out yeah he'll just claim I want to know over the last two seasons y'all had Chase I'm gonna start with you how the hell do you build off of that we all have goals as a team and we all have individual goals so I'm trying to understand let me let me be so people understand what the hell you did last year I thought it's crazy look at this [ __ ] it's crazy 140. his name on everything on the board over there man how do you feel about that Chad I was happy I know you let me tell you let me tell you about happy but when you already know how I think about records and Hall of Fame you already know how I feel man but the fact that he said what he said before the season started and he walked in and talked it or he talked it and walked it either way you put it like that was like that that's I ain't even knowing person like that but the fact he was able to come out and say something like that and then stand on that [ __ ] oh and she gave me chill but I think you know you know how difficult that is I think you appreciate it more because he's talking it yeah and walking instead of playing their game excuse me you know what I mean instead of playing that game I'm from the boot man I'm gonna come in here and wreck this dog you got it 20 21 81 catches crazy 14 55 and 13 TDS did I ever score 13 TDS I don't know absolutely [ __ ] not and drop some out there too huh I'll put that like 18. talk nasty to me ageless facts receiving yards in the game broke my it was it was 260. he 266 out there cutting up on the Chiefs what are y'all doing receiving y'alls in the season 14.55 how do you Bill on that what are your goals for this upcoming season honestly I'm just shoot I write goals a lot you know what I'm saying especially with football yeah um so my biggest goal this year probably just gonna be and I just this year just going forward probably just Triple Crown because I can't top my nose than what I did yeah so I feel like Triple Crowns would have got to be home I ain't really even want to tell you all that because now you know what I'm saying yeah but listen Crown is out there you got to do it you know you got to explain you got to explain to the people that's watching that don't know what the Triple Crown is with a Triple Crown yeah so the Triple Crown is most touchdowns most receptions and most yards in a season ah and we standing on that and if you don't get it I'll stop eating McDonald's he got a whole new line you know he's gonna get it this year it won't be not now nine times this year he can fall down it won't happen it will not happen this year talk to me well my goal yeah your personal goals I know you had your team goals you know Team game blah blah blah they always talk about but your personal goals for this upcoming season top what you did last year man I ain't gonna lie I think my air is like 9.5 or something like that a catch I gotta I'm way more you feel me I gotta show some yeah I got to be a yak crazy out there like they had like nine point seven so that's definitely something that I know I got in something that I'm I got in I got a show I ain't gonna talk too much about it I just got to go out there and show it how much do you think you can learn from Tyreek Hill in terms of that run after catch because that's his specialty man I think I'm gonna learn a lot I think I can learn so much he been in the league well he's going on Seventh year had tremendous to say I think he's six-time Pro bowls like being in Pro Bowl every year I learned a lot from him I know he's going to be like willing to teach it so I mean you can soak up all that game good part is he's gonna get the double team Joe vouched for you last year uh is it anybody that you want to vouch for it worked it's been working so might as well let you pick who we picking the draft maybe it might work yeah no no let me pick let your pick let him keep it picking I'm gonna stay on my side I thought that was pretty good Joe picked a good pick a great pick has he always had that kind of swag yeah he always been like that he always been like that besides when I first met him he just was laid back trying to watch everybody but once you get to know he cool you know what I'm saying he real cool you know I'm saying he fit in almost like them us he fit in for real so he cool I like him do you think that's what makes him relatable to a lot of the players I feel like that's easier to relate to him you know what I'm saying he don't express himself a lot but you know he showed no emotion so you know what I'm saying everything he do just laid out straight forward you know what I'm saying that's what you want what y'all got going on off the field man business in Denver or we just focusing on football right now I'm riding chat up yesterday my homeboy said he got the footage yeah so that would be coming out you got it we were just we were just mirroring and Shadow that would be coming out you told me get her out from the quarterback and you ran a slant and where was you yeah but I was I was playing three yards off that's your fault not really the same listen the back of he dropped in the zone we ran a stunt in a d tackle that's a pick going out of the way you said you would have tackle me a lot do me a favor we did go land let me know when you want the open field you got us at the end of the workout open field when y'all back out there whenever you're back you leaving town are you here I'm here so you leaving town I'm here you training here right yeah all right then you gotta catch me when I'm there earlier so I get it I guess yeah see the point is the point is I'ma let you get right I'ma let you get right warm up do whatever you got to do because all that don't mean nothing you being warm and me understanding after studying y'all I didn't study you oh yeah I know every move I didn't study YouTube I know every move look who do the Madden ratings what they got to do with anything listen to me I know who to complain to wait who do the Mad ratings you do so that therefore I have to study each and every receiver every [ __ ] game every drop every catch everything so the fact that y'all think y'all gonna get open listening okay I treated you like the s.a.t I'm not gonna face it I just seen you backpedal so I know what you finna do you see me back pedal yeah I just seen how you play you think I came out there to really like go against you I just wanted to teach you to do okay so I just found both of them who the X who if they oh you don't do me like that don't do me like that I think I'm a creative offensive coordinator and there would be no X I'm just gonna move everybody move everybody around and create mismatches which I hope McDaniels do what y'all cause that's yeah man I'm used to about four by one I'm sicker I don't know he went I didn't already one of the women said we win the AFC East Division what oh the Bills fans killing me oh oh they're killing me oh you think because your voice now he ain't about listen they told me Mike McDaniels is a great officer coordinator so therefore his creativity with weapons like that I mean we should sweep through the division I don't care what the build defense look like oh we got Josh Ellen and we got two of them yeah can I do that can I say that I don't know from from to a standpoint obviously he's gone through so much in his young career you've you've been here for one of the seasons coming back from the hip injury taking over for for Ryan Fitzpatrick starting his second year you know I don't even know coach kind of coaching tour not having a close relationship now he's got a new coach what's his start going to be like for him for him yeah man tour I mean two of one of them guys like you just gotta you got to be around you got to know to to know his personality like you're very competitive one thing I said but I want to talk for him you know I want to talk for himself but I'm just gonna say he's very competitive and I'd like him he he wanted them guys so he's always driven like that always from I'm talking about coming in a national championship you know second half throwing the game winning touchdown like like everybody just going in there doing that like got to the confidence go in there and do that in the biggest game of the of his probably career at that point so you know I think just look at a guy work and and you know the guy for me that's that's one of the good friends so when I hear people say this and third I'm like come on come on Doc y'all tripping I feel like they're trying to make him the new Baker Mayfield tour in terms of he don't even talk that much so you think they make Baker Mayfield make make Mayfield because he talks yeah yeah yeah yeah if you talk the way talk and you got commercials okay it came from college you know he had the Moxie that's the right word Moxie okay okay [Music] right on the bottom there because he won't perform but my thought is the expectations that they're creating they're creating this perception that the Dolphins now oh the Dolphins are just ready to win it's just on the quarterback uh I don't necessarily agree with that you don't think so no because he's a Young quarterback he's in his he's going into his third year came off of he got a lot of Tools around him now though yeah I mean so you think the tools create that expectation we got a Young quarterback too he used to win it huh the tools make your job easier the proof is in the pudding he used to win CC National Championship didn't win it any nobody won high level national championship sound like something in the pudding I don't know I'm just saying it sounds like something is in there these guys who are used to winning first quarterbacks come in and win we was just they have a different mentality than a guy that's going in Boise State it's just a whole different ball game mentally Annie Samoan too but they got to do with anything he's a [ __ ] Warrior hey I forgot to ask you this question right here I I had heard a little rumor like you almost left LSU because they was trying to switch your position nah that was um before I got the offer that's one last time so what happened with that uh we was at a camp I went there for a camp so I was constantly going out to the camps trying to get the offer killing them at receiver doing basically doing everything so I go out to Les Miles office he hit me with the um yeah I think you're a good receiver but I feel like you know you could be good in another position like cornerback or something I'm like like nah I ain't never back pedal day in my life like that ain't gonna work out like I ain't even got an offer in that like no film like I'm not even about to try this out that's not making no sense so I bought I had at least eight to sixteen office at the time so I wasn't even about to let him switch my mind up on what I was doing I just wasn't trying to play that nah I just not trying to play cornerback that's not it that's not a good position at all so you growing up you just knew you were going to be that receiver now growing up I played running back majority of my life that's where it came from I played running back all my life until eighth grade I got recruited by archbish and Rumble um one of the coaches came to my championship game this is my first time making it to a championship game in Middle School um had about three touchdowns down them at 150 yards um LED them all the way to the championship and then that's when I started playing receiver so that yeah in the middle of the season they moved me to receiver and I just fit in perfectly right there and that's when I was like I think I'm gonna stay there great business decision yeah great big you ever you ever hollered back at coach like coach how would you how they panned out with his his first thing that wide receiver I bet you I definitely I ain't hit him up in a minute you know what I'm saying but he I think he's sick now so uh you know shout out Coach Gary you know he real cool dude um Old Dude too you know what I'm saying he's not even at Roman no more but you know what I'm saying everybody that was dirty looked out after me you know what I'm saying so it worked out perfect when I went to Roma to be honest what what's next for you guys in terms of careers off the field achievements like what wisdom do you hope to gain from your interactions with guys at House of athletes talking to Chad getting you know covered by Chad obviously okay I'm gonna let that slide I ain't gonna I ain't even gonna keep it we're gonna keep it pushing what do you hope to learn about yourselves and about the NFL I'm saying as I'm going through this process I'm still becoming a man myself you know I'm 22 like I said uh I'm still going through adversity you know what I'm saying you're still just still the beginning you know I'm saying I haven't even made the second contract to be honest so like I just want to grow you know I'm saying get more smarter in the game you know and outside of football you know business-wise um I'm gonna start myself a soccer business you know what I'm saying I'm an athlete so if you're an athlete you know you lose socks like that's a fact that's 100 a fact if you're an athlete and you're a football player you lose socks 24 7. they got hoes in them you don't know how real talk so I'm gonna do me a little sock business so that I think that's something that's going to blow up with ease you know I'm saying clothing brand um I already got some stuff coming out so um just you know trying to be myself you know and be creative at the same time hey you Jayla yeah I mean the NFL I mean I'm just gonna learn as it come you know I feel like first year you only could know so much so you got to learn that you kind of like go through it but um business-wise I was actually just saying Aaron probably like less than a month ago we had the Dolphins had a business combined you know Brandy came and spoke to us and let us walk through and showed us how all this working how I love it so just gaining more knowledge of like business how to run a business how you keep his business going like how important you know the simple things is he was talking about you know communication and how everybody hearing just a family so I mean just learning a little stuff like that until I finally realize what I really want to invest in and then when I do invest in something I know exactly how I want to structure how I wanted to run have y'all have y'all had problems with people coming out the blue obviously after success after getting drafted having a season you had have you had a problem telling people no that haven't been around hell yeah I wouldn't say just not the people around because the people that's not around they only see you when you you know I'm saying shining for real you know what I'm saying so it's the one that's closest to you I feel like you want to make sure everybody's straight you know what I'm saying your first time you're getting as much money you're trying to make sure mom's good pops cousins you know what I'm saying people you really really truly love so just finally having an opportunity to tell my people no it was you know what I'm saying it was a little different you know what I'm saying we cool it wasn't like no big thing but right I definitely seen like something happened for sure but I hope it don't happen again but definitely like made me notice in like my life changing for real yeah oh yeah you had you had a problem yeah I think a lot like because my circle like and it's real it's real small like so I mean I help out when when I can and I feel like it's reasonable I don't just just give people just just give me a what's called it they need or really need something I feel like and I can help it's done but you ain't just about to eat off me right that's not right that's hard especially when it comes to family because the family yeah yeah that's the ones you love the most the ones you want to talk to when you're going through [ __ ] right yeah number two three thousand add up two three thousand did we here four thousand that we oh you know the promo style twelve thousand for the month and what advice would you give them to curtail all that um it's hard to say no but you know I had literally everything taken away from me so I got a chance to see where everybody motive was you get what I'm saying and nobody thought that I was gonna get back to where I was gonna get back to because they thought oh he's still he going to jail soon you know what I mean I did soon this and that but I had a chance to sit back and see who was there when you know I mean you're on that black alley you only got you know I mean one person you can count on to call on and then you'd be like God damn I ain't even really needing that but just to talk to your mother that's right I mean and that was the changing point for me when I didn't have the same office who I was busting busting my for helping out here and there anything they want I can't even get a phone call from them you know what I mean when it was when it was hard times not far as financially I'm just saying mentally you know what I mean so um somebody to talk to I learned that that that that that flipped my whole mindset of how I handled a lot of things toward the back of my career you know I mean I was blessed to make a pretty good amount of money at the end of my career so but it was it was hard saying no it was hard it was hard well the food's ready so just bring it out break some bread [Music] how y'all doing how you doing what we got for today how we doing so today we got a little egg roll mix up y'all like Philly cheesesteaks we got a Philly cheesesteak egg roll pretty much what we got some of that yum yum sauce on the side okay just a little bit of it take a bite let me know how how it is shoot hey real quick any y'all married yes I am real quick did Will Smith go too far oh no hey look bro my wife off limit y'all been outside shitty [ __ ] you're lined up like that but he could have did it in a different way but I just think he was to the boiling point where he just couldn't take them up like Melody y'all talk about it every time now yeah I think I think he reached his point in there and that was it for him hey real quick oh [ __ ] I gotta I got a question for you real quick what's happening baby hey what happened the other day or what I think you kind of proved the Z in the X question I saw the thing online like B kind of looked like he was doing his thing bro what happened he went two for five he went two for five yeah that's bad it kind of looked like six or eight nine a little bit well we got the Highlight part yeah he only got two balls so that's why I'm the X okay I'm I'm just making sure because I don't really know football like that but he's kind of looking like the x that nah it just looked like that because of the size that's true that's true angles right yeah bigger than your smart car I was like damn huge Amy it's always been huge um if you could give advice to two guys who just are on top of the world from a rookie season about anything life love business how to learn from Pros what advice would you would you pass on to them I would say love don't worry about it it'll be there don't worry about it hold on say that again love don't worry about it right now it'll be there love will be there love will be there to reach the Pinnacle of greatness and consistency that they've done so far you can't do that with someone on your right hand side but what's supposed to meet you what's supposed to need somebody to hold you and and you can't joke in order to be great at this you got to submerge yourself in your craft 24 7. that don't mean you don't have to have a woman you don't need that thank you 22 what you need well yeah 22 yeah yeah I got it they got some time to enjoy this stuff they're right you're right 20 20 yeah 22 I wasn't enjoying myself yeah they need a woman now yeah they need a woman but at 22 they need to enjoy themselves the man that been working his whole life man this is the first time you really get to enjoy yourself if you think about it as an athlete because guess what you don't get no off time at all in high school you don't get no off time you're playing AAU basketball or doing something in the summer 707. yeah and really like the first my first rookie I never forget I was like God damn I got so much time hey think about this right success the two richest men in the world right they was married one day yeah and they got divorced they got divorced right yeah you know why can in order to sustain that type of success all your energy has to go into what the business exactly so why would they end up it'd be the same to be the same reason the time that a woman needs especially at this time what are you saying about yourself me you got a girl I'm retired I ain't got [ __ ] to do you still working I'm saying you're building the Empire you're doing something are you saying afterwards or just right now right now right now yeah there I'm supposed to be 21 22 23 yeah you married got a girl nah you got a girl no I'm chilling see what I mean enjoy yourself they perfect they can just focus on they craft and getting better and every day y'all find a way to get open on me that's it I already I'm winning right at you yeah I'm winning no yeah yeah hey speaking of Dodge y'all know Chad Chad never had a diet me either really but he is he is really bad he is really bad you mean McDonald's he loves this this place called McDonald's and he eat it all right the game after the game what's it what's up what's your resume like you got died no doubt what's up I eat breakfast a lot let's go yeah okay like I ain't gonna say I eat the worst but I don't eat bad especially during the season I ain't got no diet I eat how I want man see people at home unless you work hard man that body gonna come yeah man either you got it you don't you hurt when Brandon do you got something you uh uh a ritual before the games or anything just music probably a couple songs what's on the playlist young boy nah I'll be buffing why I be that hard uh I'll be listening to Kodak a little baby uh uh Nino calvillo dude from the city local um rifle nine you know I'm saying so I gotta I gotta playing a little playlist I'm listening too much music I'd be asking people for music I'll just be vibing I don't really no no I can't really eat before the game I ain't gonna lie no superstitions like certain socks certain girdle like none of that like I got a wedding gloves I gotta wear these socks as long as I listen to one song I'm straight what's wrong what's wrong straight bars by Kodak oh okay okay okay okay I just need one song and I'm good I'm out the door I'm I'm straight I do gotta make sure I'm looking right though yeah I got to of course when you when y'all were growing up who was the biggest college player that y'all could remember I'm Gonna Let You Go first I gotta think about that pilot I like growing I don't think cam was I know yeah that's when he was doing a lot of the Superman but yeah so Reggie was different Reggie Bush in college yeah as far as College yeah he was the biggest for all the events I'm from Houston so why was the man in college y'all like the uh transportal thing whatever I think about it I ain't transport I feel like it even because I went to Alabama and coaches in and out there every every year to for a better job so I feel like it even but I do feel like you don't think it take away from uh it's from where you look at it what's the point it'd be a really good players especially where I went to school at it'd be really good players look at Mac Jones yeah not everybody gonna have that Matt Jones story of sitting three four years and being the first round pick if you transferring because you don't want to compete then that's different than someone that's actually need to transfer for a good reason you know I mean if you just ducking because when you get to that fair you can't duck I know ducky everybody is them yeah and came from the school and then they real good so it's gonna catch up to them well I feel like reasoning though what's the main reason most of the kids hit the portal anyway basically because they don't want to compete or they have somebody else that's starting in front of them probably most likely probably I feel like it is yeah probably playing time or just not the right situation it's most you got some guys that are playing though but you got some guys are playing that's getting playing time I don't understand that though I don't understand that if they doing that that's most likely someone off the field of the coaches though you know what I'm saying yeah I mean and that's that's the thing a lot a lot of exactly a lot of the stuff that y'all go through people don't talk about it they don't see exactly and it's hidden and if a Coach is abusing you or you know talking talking that smack talking ass talk behind your back why why do you want to stay there and play for them I just don't because the coach can just up and leave you know and you he could have been recruited you that'd be one of the main reason you went he just up and leave he got a better job and somewhere you and then you just stuck there with a new coach now you think it's fair because it gives you the same right as the coach to a certain extent I ain't gonna I say the reason man if you like if you reason if your reasoning for something crazy I feel like you shouldn't have went to that school in the first place but if you got good reasoning behind and you really like yeah after that you you should have a option to because you only get what five five years in college like once and five years done things go by quick you might not get that opportunity where it's like less than one percent make it right yeah right you gotta take them five years serious so if you think I mean but not everybody's gonna make it to the league though that's you can't tell everybody that you need to tell everybody that Alabama you can't Crush their dreams like that I'm not trying to question a dream but that's crushing the dream I think everybody at the top five power schools have a good chance of making it no matter what just because of based on where they go to school the opportunity the door is going to present itself and it's going to be open now what you do once you get in that mop that's on you all right question I just want to know did your girl your why you cut your hair your girlfriend didn't make you cut your hair did she I ain't gonna lie I've been saying I was gonna cut my hair for a little minute like like two three years like I went to work out it was hot hot I went and had a haircut appointment he let it go huh Let It Go you your mom had no reaction she was shot I told him I cut my hair I walked in the door my mom started literally crying I'm like what is wrong with you what did you do that and she bull cried I started growing my hair back out in like three months I felt so bad like how long you had them before you cut them since my junior year maybe senior year in high school all my all my my dread head friends and stuff they look at me different now they look at me different I'm telling question LSU who's your top five receivers um everybody know the love for me Jets Odell Jarvis um so if I knew the fit one I'd tell you but I don't know far because I don't really be knowing a lot of oh you you ain't big never shoot tough uh Alabama Alabama too many receivers you gotta go give me five gotta go Julio Julio was crazy I feel like he really started that like pipeline like for real see red was different Josh Reed Josh Reed okay Smitty one Heisman so we gotta throw him up today yeah um yourself I'm gonna go Jew uh Jared Judy I'm gonna do damn y'all that's a good real oh that's a good list what with Tyreek Hill coming obviously we talked about the things that he could teach you in terms of run after cash but how potential how potent do you think that the offense can be potentially I feel it's going to be different like I ain't gonna sit here and try to you know convince the the where it was called because obviously we got to work for to get that stamp of being one of them you know high power offense but I feel like with who we got if we put it together you know we should be all right we just got to work that AFC is stacked man AFC tough just the quarterback player alone AFC North and Easter stack if you yeah he talked about quarterbacks quarterback oh yeah quarterback why are they stacked what you think not DeSean Lamar right Joe burrow and up in the air over in Pittsburgh no disrespect I mean but Pittsburgh is consistently a winner no matter what so they're still I bet you they won't be the next four years they ain't got no quarterback at the helm I mean come on Ben Roethlisberger has been done for two three years all right would you say his first bad year last year Ben was done a year ago come on I think so why because he's not mobile he's never been mobile I know he's never been mobile but what what passes what difference was he making now this year I could see that yeah this year was it was I think it's the second half of the year he's kind of the bottom fell out yeah yeah no you don't disagree no you're right about maybe Mitchell trubisky if I'm not mistaken I like Mitch is he the answer long term nobody no but I think he can he's taking the team to the playoffs how many quarterbacks can say they've taken a team to the playoffs I mean he's not going to do it in AFC North anytime soon it's that's a that's a tough that's a tough division that's that's it that's by far in my mind the toughest division in football it's always been the toughest division not really being at the Bengals the Bengals really run the AFC North honestly Bengals definitely run the AFC note since when I mean since since this year since last year there's some years before that too okay yeah I mean I'm not arguing with you they came out the AFC they came out the AFC like but outside of you how many people predicted they will win the championship get to the super I said that way in August I know you did I ain't said to September I got it written down like week six they they got hot they peaked they hit it they hit it at the right time and that's what you really have to do but now though we got a line we're gonna be peeking early this year I had I had the Dolphins I wanna you are a Dolphins beat reporter I said that the Dolphins were winning the AFC East everybody jumped in my head your thoughts they hired the right coach who will build the right system for two I've always been a fan of that Mike Shanahan y Zone play action you know remember Jake Plummer see people people you see that face that's the face that for people who remember Jake Plummer athletic mobile I remember Jay plumber was no slouch he wasn't out of slouch and you didn't have to have unbelievable skill level to be an efficient quarterback in that offense if you could run with power if you run with efficiency it'll open up the field for guys like with speed and you have a quarterback who can facilitate all that you you win the money so basically with everything you just said they're winning the AFC East because you just said everything you need you have a quarterback that can facilitate you have a running back that can open it up for the receivers and we got speed basically we went in the asces it's okay go on the record and say it no Josh Allen that dude bro Josh is that you you do realize that I know who y'all okay he's he's that young dude and no disrespect but they haven't even touched the bank touched the bills in two years like come close but he's in a little dark fight that second that second game in the second half recently dog fight though hey man don't worry about it you heard what that boy said help coming help is on the way it's gonna be a different kind of game with him down there with y'all because he's going to open up a lot a lot he's gonna demand too high so the Run game ain't gonna be different single you're gonna be single back side it's gonna be a whole lot different you talk trash on the field I'll be turned yeah no uh I'd be turned no uh I don't believe it I talk a little bit sometimes I try to start first though it's not it's not like like like college like it's not like they ain't really about to bump with you like that it was the king of talking it's like like it's a man game you see how it was yesterday just talking constantly constantly I would do that all game whole game TV time out I go and they huddle and keep talking if I can get you to answer back just a little bit I just need I just need if I can get that little Edge mentally I know I got you once I get them talking boom I won then I know I'm gonna be able to dominate the rest if I could just get you got to try that one time just try one game try it in the preseason we had a whole presentation on I know y'all had it too um what's the they ain't playing with the um Taunton like they fighting yeah yeah I'll get you out of there hold on hold on so what y'all can't talk trash you really can't show like if I catch a ball game yeah you can look at him later oh yeah you getting that yeah different products I forgot all about that my bad okay and that man scratch that [Music] in honor of Brandon not being here we're going to keep the tradition of tea time going with Jalen waddle and jamartex gentlemen first question tea time who is your celebrity
