00:00going back to the tight end stand what like super big picture was there like a philosophical shift

00:12if at all from you and drew in terms of you always want guys can both block and receive of course

00:16nobody may top what tfer did in terms of receiving but you always had really strong blockers this is

00:22a group that can block but might be stronger as receivers was there a thought two and three years

00:26ago to make this room loaded with more receivers yeah i mean you you you always want um guys that

00:34that check all the boxes and we're lucky to have you know several guys on our roster that check the

00:38boxes and when i think coach's job is to use the skill set of their players and i think our coaches

00:42have done a really good job of finding what the guys do well and utilizing them right and whether

00:46that's handing the ball off to a tight end or whether that's throwing it to them or letting

00:50them block you know that's that's something that you can showcase in our offense
