00:00Just come in, coming back on that run.

00:07Anything in particular with your pass rush that you're trying to work on,

00:09trying to get better with your hands or anything like that?

00:12Yeah, mainly just effort, just being a high effort guy,

00:16constantly putting that on for him.

00:17And of course, like I said, getting better in the right game,

00:21developing a run.

00:22You mentioned, I feel like maybe you've been forgotten.

00:24Do you feel doubtful?

00:25I mean, lots of guys say that there, but I mean, it would be valid.

00:29So do you feel that way?

00:30Do you feel like you're being questioned and doubted?

00:33Oh, for sure, it's been a crazy ride.

00:39But like I say, just being able to find that peace and that joy again,

00:47Yeah, okay.

01:14kind of repositioning my mindset and coming back.

01:20So just hearing those types of things are open to you.

01:25And then, as I would say, I couldn't do another elite team.

01:26It's a great time for the world.
