00:01They have a, you know, an incredible person, a very smart guy.

00:07He's got his undergraduate degree from Boston College,

00:10got his master's in business administration from Boston College.

00:15They got a 6'8", 315-pound mountain of a man.

00:20You know, he's a really good run blocker, excellent pass protector,

00:25very smart, very instinctive, great teammate,

00:28was a unanimous captain.

00:30Everybody on the team voted for this guy to be captain.

00:34So the Bears got a guy that's going to, you know,

00:37anchor that position for a long time.

00:39Coach, it's great to talk to you.

00:40I think everyone in Chicago is so curious about where Ozzie fits in

00:45with the Bears specifically.

00:46Obviously, we know he played primarily right tackle at Boston College.

00:51The Bears have a really good right tackle right now.

00:53Braxton Jones on the left side of the line is coming off an injury.

00:56There may be more room for Ozzie to squeeze in there.

00:59Where do you see Ozzie playing in the NFL at the pro level?

01:04And could he play left tackle?

01:07He definitely is a swing tackle.

01:09He played a little bit of left tackle before I got here.

01:13We played him at right tackle.

01:16We had a left tackle young guy named Jude Bowery,

01:19who will be coming out next year probably.

01:21He was a left-handed guy, a little bit more comfortable on the left side.

01:26Ozzie's a great teammate.

01:27Ozzie said, I'll play right tackle.

01:29But Ozzie has played left tackle,

01:31so I don't think there's any doubt that he'll be able to, you know, do both.

01:36I'm not too sure about the Bears depth chart and all that,

01:38but I definitely think that Ozzie can play on both sides.

01:42He did that in practice a lot, and he did that in games,

01:46like I said, before I came to BC.

01:47See you next time.
