00:45even
00:46matters yeah i think you you all should want to report something positive you know you you know
00:50asking the question is going to turn negative so let's not get into that and let's keep everything
00:54positive it's love my way and uh and just move forward that's all am i in a better place mentally
01:01uh i wouldn't say i'm in a better place you know uh i wasn't in a bad place in philly
01:06you know um so i'll leave it at that you and jayman had a lot of positive moments of success
01:11together absolutely absolutely do you plan on catching up with him this week and seeing and talking
01:17i'm sure we run across our paths run across yeah sure yeah what is your message to eagles fans what
01:23is
01:23my message to eagles fans uh uh i love you and uh you know uh i'm not looking in the
01:28past it's a game
01:30uh um that game no i didn't play my best but i'm not going backwards you know uh it doesn't
01:35exist
01:36and and that's the last question i'm gonna ask i'm gonna answer about the past so
01:41all right also like no issues with that him and jaylen you know they don't get along for whatever
01:46reason their friendship fell out of love but what a classy response and also if you go back to before
01:51the pats got him the amount of fans that were like i think he'll be bad for the locker room
01:55like
01:55it's it's just we make these narratives out of nowhere and we think that mike rabel won't be able
02:01to handle a guy like that well it's not out of nowhere well but then you hear him and the
02:05way
02:05he was on a championship team being a dink to his teammates yeah but i don't think well he wasn't
02:10being a dink to his team he was reading a book on a sideline right but i don't think his
02:14teammates
02:14were upset about his quarterback was no no his quarterback and him and his quarterback were not
02:19on the same page why do you think do you think jalen hurts was like i don't like you or
02:23he complained
02:23about how many times he was being targeted in the well no i think it was because there were times
02:28that jalen hurts was changing plays to get to run plays like their issues were more because he wanted
02:35the ball yeah yeah but that's like team everybody yeah teammates are not upset about that i i love
02:40that he's here and i think he'll be great i but you can't say somebody's a dink in the law
02:45he was a
02:45dink in that no he wasn't this is what i'm trying to explain to you the the in the locker
02:50room the and
02:52and i think it was the wide receiver group were upset because they felt like jalen hurts was was
02:59changing plays to run plays that should have been passing plays or he was going away from passing
03:06plays to get to run plays that were ultimately read option plays that were more suited for him
03:13and saquon barkley it wasn't that guys in that locker room were like oh this guy's a db like
03:19receivers complaining about getting the football and wanting to be more tail as old as time yeah it
03:25on super bowl winning teams as they're winning the super bowl is very unique wasn't tom brady like
03:31his most miserable self when the pats were winning yeah when they were eight no right and they and
03:35they won the super bowl he was the happiest he's ever no no no but we're yeah but i think
03:39he was
03:40happy he caught a touchdown in that super bowl right so the issues in that locker room between him
03:47and jalen were more about the way that the offense was being run and there's there's like articles to
03:54that you can easily find articles to that there wasn't like his teammates weren't like oh he's a
04:01bad locker room person so i think it was like i don't think he was a dink in the locker
04:06room we had
04:07this issue when it came to steph diggs like everybody in the locker room liked him he just had issues
04:14with
04:14more maybe what the coaching staff was doing with the offense or maybe more about what was going on with
04:20him in the quarterback yeah i i think it's i hope it's going to be great here i think he
04:25and drake
04:25may are off to a great start but at this stage of the relationship it would be very unlikely that
04:29there would be issues here like there were in philly those were not there at the beginning those
04:33developed over time when aj brown felt like he wasn't being targeted yeah but i would say that's
04:37more on the offensive coordinator i bet i bet a lot of people in philly and i bet a lot
04:41of his
04:41teammates are like why aren't we getting aj the ball seems like he had a pretty good relationship
04:45with quinion mitchell the corner over in philly like oh yeah i don't think he and the defense
04:49had any issues yeah so and i was getting like because i remember you know i think it was flieger
04:55at the time um and maz and you know obviously i'm cool with them but i remember like they said
05:02that
05:02about randy moss and i was like you know i was teammates with him the dude wasn't an issue in
05:07the
05:07locker room well he was in the end here well i don't like i don't know here and the end
05:12i think it
05:13was more of an issue they got they traded a mid-season right but that don't mean you're an
05:17issue in the locker room that means you have an issue with the coaching it's very similar to like
05:21the jaron durant thing where clearly he has issues with the fans and himself being kind of a douche uh
05:28whereas in the locker room it seems like the guys actually like him right so like when you say you're
05:32there's issues in the locker room it's more along the lines of um and i don't know if there was
05:39but
05:39let's say marsh and imposter right like there was rumblings no no no no and i'm just definitely a
05:44rift there or or how about this celsius is rising courtney i won't even go there but like when marcus
05:49smart was having great issues in the locker room like that's issues in the locker room if you're
05:54not rocking with the coach or the coaching staff like that don't mean guys don't like you in the
05:59locker room like that that to me so when people say he's thinking the locker room like no he might
06:04be
06:04a dink when it comes to the coaching staff that's a different conversation well he didn't get a lot
06:08well it's not the coaching staff he didn't get along with the quarterback because of he felt
06:13like the quarterback was in the wide receiver room felt the same way okay then why didn't other
06:18receivers demand a trade well i don't you got i don't know why devontae smith didn't demand the
06:24trade i don't know i don't know that so clearly it was worse with aj brown yes yeah but that's
06:28one player with devontae smith is maybe even a more talented receiver than aj brown no it's not even
06:33close that no he's not even close i mean okay he could have requested a trade very similarly maybe
06:38he gets a second round pick instead of a first round pick you don't think and then i know he
06:42hasn't done he hasn't done it but i'm willing to bet you if i've talked if i would have to
06:46sit down
06:46and talk to devontae smith behind the scenes he would probably be like yo i'm not a huge fan of
06:53jalen hurts as a quarterback right but that's what a player does if they're not being a dink they do
06:58it
06:58behind the scenes but you keep saying he's like he he didn't get along with his quarterback
07:03because of his quarterback changing plays that's not being a dink in the locker room there's a
07:09difference i have a phd in dink so i think in the locker room is like yo this guy t
07:16.o where people
07:17did not like there were teammates of his that did not like him at all right like for whatever the
07:22attitude was people did like that's when you're like yo this guy is an a-hole there's levels of it
07:28of course like aj brown didn't ever have issues in tennessee like it was just with jalen hurts and
07:34kevin petullo like that's that's where the issues lie well the issues lie
07:37you
07:37you
