Tony, you are playing at such a high level right now.

Are you able to appreciate how well you're playing?

Um.

I appreciate you saying that, by the way, uh, but you know I just, I just think I need to continue improving my technique and fundamentals in, in the run and everything and just keep.

Making progress in my pass rush ability, uh, because right now I think that's definitely my strength is pass rushing and, uh, but if I wanna be on the field I gotta be able to stop and run as well and even to get to the pass you have to be able to stop and run.

So I think uh if, if I can, you know, continue to get better and build off of, you know, where I'm at right now, I think I'll be playing at a high level.

Could you talk about Book and what he offers as a vet just as a, a guy I noticed it, you know, he's very fond of you.

He talks extremely high of you.

I know you guys are communicating a lot.

Uh, yeah, Thomas Booker, uh, that's my guy since he came in last year, you know, uh, you know, I was a little skeptical of him at first, but, uh, no, I got nothing but love and respect for Book, and, you know, his get off is just ends like crazy every play he just gets off the ball so fast and, you know, I mean, yeah, being able to have him in the room, um, and you know, as well as other guys, uh, it just makes everything easier, you know, if I have questions.

I need to ask they're all very open and uh supportive with everything because you know we're only as good as you know our weakest link.

So, uh, everybody, you know, learning from one another because I mean even with the younger guys too you can learn something from them every day so it's just a great, you know, formula for success to have.

It's just the camaraderie and uh communication that we have.
