00:00You are doing so many things.

00:03Yeah.

00:04Okay, congrats on Hollywood Square.

00:05Thank you, brother.

00:06I appreciate that.

00:08Hollywood Square.

00:09Yeah, yeah.

00:10The revival.

00:11You know what I'm saying?

00:12Yeah, yeah.

00:13The revival, yeah.

00:14I gotta ask, man.

00:15Is there somebody that's a current player right now who you're like, yo, this dude could

00:16do what I'm doing.

00:17He could do this.

00:18He could hit this.

00:19He could hit that.

00:20See, this is why I'm with you.

00:21You ask the really good questions.

00:22That's fire.

00:23Think about this.

00:24Think about this.

00:25Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:26I think Jordan for the Saints is a tremendous talent.

00:29You know, a couple of young guys that got the pizzazz, I don't know if they have the

00:33desire to do it, but Justin Jefferson, like J. Jettis, he just got it.

00:40He got the juice.

00:41You know what I mean?

00:42He's smooth.

00:43He got the look.

00:44Every time he pulls up, everybody shows him love, so I think he's a guy.

00:48And then a quarterback that I really rock with, man, it's gonna throw people off, but

00:55I think Joe Burrow, like, if he gets a microphone in front of him, he can control the room.

01:01Because think about it.

01:02Joe Burrow's really chill, low-key, but when he talks, everybody's like, shh.

01:05So the key to being good on TV is like, commanding and demanding the attention when you open

01:11your mouth, so I'll say Joe Burrow.

01:13Have you taken anyone under your wing, bro, and been like, yo?

01:16Every young player.

01:17Like, literally.

01:18They all come to you?

01:19100%.

01:20When they holla at me like, yo, Nate, I love what you do, I'll say, give me your number.

01:21Oh, man, you know, I want to do what you're doing.

01:22I'm like, oh, you're a rookie?

01:23Holla at me in 10 years.

01:24Because one, I want them to get as much money as they can.

01:25Like, I want them to exhaust as much of their athletic ability and make as much cash as

01:26they can.

01:27I look at them and I say, the NFL's gonna squeeze as much as they can out of your athletic

01:28ability.

01:29Like, when you're done playing, you won't run, you won't jump, you won't do anything

01:30what you used to do as much as you once did, but I want you to do that with their cash

01:31flow.
