“I think everyone. It’s really important for them to play against and to understand and execute their mission, they can’t see the color of the jersey, they just have to do it the way they practice and that’s what we do. that’s what i’m asking for.”
On whether this year’s membership decisions are stricter than last year’s:
“Yes, definitely. Mainly outside linebackers. Everybody can play. That’s going to be the hardest. There’s competition in other spots, but top to bottom, the outside linebacker room. Probably the toughest room because they can all play in this league.”
In his first preseason game as a player:
“First preseason game It was actually against Tampa Bay. Got pick 6 from Steve DeBerg so helped make the team pretty good [laughs]. I remember it because it was stormy and rainy that night and we couldn’t get out of the airport. We stayed overnight and had to fly out the next day. I have always loved Tampa. I don’t worry too much about the national anthem or the fans. I’m trying to build a team.
“You have a lot of butterflies and I know you’re going to be playing as a rookie, and you’re going to be playing on all the special teams. When you get the pick six, one yard after you cross the end zone. I think I might have spiked the ball because I knew I had to go down with the kickoff team and I didn’t want to expend my energy and that’s exciting — as a rookie, it’s going to be exciting. It’s just a matter of who can control their emotions and play under the lights.”

“I feel like the camp is going well.” [well]. Finally got my technique working. Compared to last year, I feel like I’ve gotten a lot smarter, and I’ve gotten a quicker view of the game. After spending some time doing nothing, [playing] In soccer, you lose technique. Mainly that’s the big difference between the two. ”
On furthering his role as Bucks leader this season:
“Young people come up to me and ask questions. If I do everything, it should help me move on to the next phase of my career.” Therefore, I will explain with an example. [and] I’ll be in a conference room and explain what I think, why I need to do certain things, etc. I still let them play their game, but when they ask me for advice, I tell them. ”
On what worked for the secondary during training camp:
“Rather, it’s about trusting what we’re seeing. When you start seeing the same thing on film and you keep getting knocked down by it over and over again, eventually you’re like, ‘Okay, trust the coach and go bet.’ ‘ comes to think. It’s not really gambling, just guessing. I think we just let loose yesterday. ”
On how he feels about people doubting the team heading into this season:
“It’s definitely motivation. I’ve always been a guy who feeds on doubt, because most of the time it’s because of my knees. I always feel good when I prove people wrong.” We know what’s going on here, but others – since Tom [Brady] Left – feel like we are [going] Just go downhill. I look forward to proving them wrong. ”
Bucks Running Back Chase Edmonds
About the first few weeks of training camp with the Bucks:
“It’s been great for us. With the new offense coming in, it’s going to be a learning experience for everyone on the offense. [Offensive Coordinator] Dave Canales, I think the most important thing for us right now is to understand the basics and the details. [and] Really understand how the offense works, how it is built, and then take a little more understanding as the weeks go by. ”

On what excited him to play with the Bucks:
For me, it was just an opportunity, you know, I know how they feel about Rashard White, but I got a job and got a fair chance to challenge myself to carve out a role for myself. only. [I] I love the veterans in their attack. [I] love me big [Tristan] Wilfs is Aggressive, Ryan Jensen is Aggressive, Loves ‘CG’ (Chris Godwin), and Mike [Evans] Naturally, what excites me the most is that we already have a culture of continuity and winning. ”
Longest experience in the NFL compared to other running backrooms:
“It’s a great running backroom. We all have our own personalities, but we definitely blend well and we’re all just trying to help each other out as much as we can.” [be]. I always say to my players, it’s important to build fellowship, when I was in Arizona we called it fellowship, we were always building relationships with each other on the field, [and] off the field.
It’s about learning about your brothers and learning about your teammates. Because when this thing is over, it’s over and all you have left are memories. I want to reiterate to all of you that it is good to have strong memories and strong relationships with people you can stay connected with for the rest of your life. ”
