00:00I think you look great. What does it feel like for you to be a part of this event today?
00:03It's a little chilly in Vegas, but it's still very lit right now. Super Bowl's on Sunday. How you feel?
00:09I'm feeling blessed, man. I just got to give honor to God. He's just been unbelievable, working nonstop for me.
00:15I just got to give him all the praise and glory. I got my family here, got my teammates here, my coach here, ownership here.
00:20So it's just a surreal moment.
00:22For you, in terms of how you view the game, evolution of your own game,
00:28what are you most pleased with and what are you looking forward to?
00:30Yeah, I'm just most pleased with just the outcome of how the season went.
00:34You know what I'm saying? Even though it wasn't what we wanted,
00:36it was a step and a foundation of where we can go and what we're becoming.
00:39So I'm really excited about that.
00:41And just the leadership at such a young age, getting the trust of the guys,
00:44being the captain my rookie year, and taking my game to that next level next year
00:48and just getting better at the little things like setting the edge, pass rush.
00:51It just gets me fired up talking about it.
00:53I see. You got me fired up.
00:55Okay, so Patrick Mahomes, obviously, everybody's saying it's his game to lose.
00:59In your opinion, do you think Purdy and the 49ers have a chance at all?
01:02I think they got a chance. I think they got a really good chance.
01:05I'm going to go with the 49ers.
01:08Last question for you.
01:09If you could own your own NFL team, what would be the name and why?
01:11Does a ā yeah, they got a team.
01:22And you can just rename a team.
01:23If you want a particular city you want to rename them, name a team of what?
01:26I'm going to go back home and I'm going to say the Atlanta Dirty Birds
01:32instead of the Atlanta Falcons.
01:34I feel like that name is, like, bad ass.
01:37You know what I'm saying?
01:38Like, yeah, we the Dirty Birds.
01:40Because I grew up a Falcons fan, so, like, the Atlanta Dirty Birds, that would be hard.
01:43Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:45I love that.
01:45Okay, last question for real.
01:46I couldn't help but notice that Nicole's with you.
01:49She said, now, we all know who Nicole is.
01:51We all know she's doing amazing things in the sports world, especially as a black woman.
01:54What does it mean to have her on your team?
01:56Yeah, it's crazy because the story I tell her all the time, I said,
01:59Nicole, you barely got me because I wasn't going to go with her at first.
02:02But, man, she's unbelievable.
02:04She handles business the right way.
02:06She cares.
02:06She loves the right way.
02:08I mean, I think she's the best to ever do it.
02:10You know, especially with her being a black female in this industry,
02:13she's taking names and kicking ass.
02:15You know what I'm saying?
02:15So I'm really proud of her.
02:17I'm so appreciative of her and her team that she's put together.
02:20She's unbelievable.
02:20Any young athletes out there, if you need anybody to guide you the right way,
02:24understand your situation, Nicole is the person to go to.
