What is the best thing about New England so

far you've experienced? I would say just the people out here, you know.

I'd say at least in my community where I live, man, great people.

We were welcomed, you know, with ease.

And the food out here is really good as well.

Do you mind when people come up and want to talk football? No, no, not at all.

I kind of like it, you know what I'm saying? Do you? You never know when this game is going to end.

okay so the number you wear now is that the one that you would prefer and what was the numbers that you've had and the reasons you've had them

How do you gain it? How do you work with it? If you lose it, how do you grab it back? Yeah,

but I think.

Well, the thing about O-line is, like, if you lose a rep, you know what I'm saying, it's not like a, I don't know if you're a corner or a DB, whatever, like, you can go, you lose a rep, you know, but you can go get an interception in the next play.

You know what I'm saying? Go get a pass break up and get that stat.

Like, as an O-lineman, if you let up a pressure or a sack, you know what I'm saying, there's no kind of stat to bounce, to, you know, get that bounce back or to get your get back, basically.

It's just go out there and keep on doing what you're doing, you know, block the guy in front of you.

Something with O-line, bro, like the confidence has to be through the roof.

Has there been one instance where he's been with the offensive line working as a defensive lineman or just done outside of the ordinary where you're like, oh, this is pretty exceptional stuff?

What did you take away from the film there for week one?

Mm-hmm.

Uh, different things for sure.

For me personally, um, just, you know, little things like technique, um, and just kinda getting back into it, you know, after having a year off of ball.

Um, but I'm feeling great.

You know, it's, it's one thing about me is that I love to compete, um, and I definitely, you know, learn, um, from my mistakes as well.

So I'm excited to get back out there week two and then just overall just little things from, uh, the offense and, and whole team as well.

Wh-where do you feel the whole unit is at with those things?

Will Campbell, it's been like working with him through camp, and now as you get ready to open.

Yeah, I think he's been really cool, man.

He makes my job easier, and I hope I make his easier as well.

But very talented, man.

Great with communication out there.

And I've said it so many times.

It doesn't feel like I'm playing next year to play with him and Jared.

this.
