00:00It's not like you don't talk to each other and see each other at times,
00:03but being on the field again with Joe and Jamar, how much fun is that for you?
00:07Man, it feels good.
00:09Just us being out there flying around, moving the ball, it just feels good.
00:13I feel like we left off yesterday.
00:15What was your reaction to the Bengals' offseason and adding guys like Dexter Lawrence?
00:21Nah, man, I'm happy, though, man.
00:23I played with Dexter at college, so it's a good friend.
00:25And, you know, once that announcement came out, man, I was, you know, just happy and really, really excited.
00:33Did it feel like a team sending a message that we want to win a championship?
00:37You know, obviously we want to win a championship, but definitely that was a big move, and I'm happy we
00:43made it.
00:43It's early June, T, but is it too soon to be thinking about expectations
00:47and how high the bar has been raised this offseason?
00:52I wouldn't say it's too soon.
00:53We all got a goal here, you know what I mean?
00:54And you just got to come out every single day and, you know, get better and better each and every
01:00single day
01:00and one step closer to that goal.
01:02Last year, your main goal was to stay healthy, and you were able to do that.
01:07What's your main goal this year?
01:08Same thing.
01:09Stay healthy, you know, and do what I can to, you know, help my team get W's this year.
01:14Do you have an opinion now that Miles Garrett is in a laundry division?
01:19Good deal.
01:20No, but, you know, I'm happy for him.
01:23You know, I'm sure he, you know, is in a good place, but, you know, it's good for us as
01:30well, I guess.
01:31How good did it feel to make that catch down the right side of you?
01:34Oh, it felt good, man.
01:35I needed that.
01:36You know, I had caught a deep ball since last season, so that felt good.
01:40Even in an OTA practice?
01:41Even in OTAs, it felt good, yeah.
01:43How exactly did you track that?
01:45Was it tipped?
01:45It was hard to tell for me.
01:46No, it was just lay hands and was able to pluck it out there.
01:50Cut it.
01:50Yeah, thanks.
01:51Joe, obviously, played playing football this offseason.
01:54Jamar just said that he would also kind of be interested if that ever came up.
01:57I play too, man.
01:58Pro ball.
01:59Would you want to be a kid?
02:02That would be fun.
02:03You know, I had a lot of fun when I did play, but I don't know if I would do
02:10it, like, put
02:11out, like, the Olympics.
02:12They're supposed to be doing that, so I don't know.
02:14It would be, like, a game-time decision if I was to get asked to play.
02:17T, you know how this goes.
02:18There are guys that can hold out, hold in, not show up, not play right now.
02:22It feels like everyone's here, everyone's bought in, new contract or not.
02:26How important is that for this team?
02:28It's very important.
02:28Man, we all want the same thing at the end of the day, man.
02:32Guys just want to grind with their brothers, so.
02:36When did you start?
02:37Like, what was your offseason recovery process?
02:40Like, obviously, you need to take some time off, but when did you start working out again,
02:44and what has the last couple of minutes been like?
02:46I probably took, like, two or three weeks off.
02:48I got back at it fairly early, just, like, with mobility work.
02:52You saw I could stay moving, and so, you know, just stay on top of things.
02:56What is the next level for you and Jamar in this offense?
03:00Win championships, man.
03:03I feel like we did everything that we needed to do, you know, personal accolade-wise.
03:08But, you know, now it's just, you got to win championships.
03:12That's the main goal, so.
