So just been

over to go to Texas. Congratulations man. So I'm curious, you know, we we do this months on end, and no disrespect to you, but you definitely weren't very much on our radar. I'm just curious if you've had a connection with the Cowboys who you've been talking to here, Um, just what this process has been like for you as it pertains to the Dallas Cowboys. It's been amazing. I got a test to speak with, um, the defensive coordinator Dan Quinn and the defensive dock coach Al and the

talks for I mean, they were great talks. Uh. We uh kind of just connected just to do the type of person I was and and I didn't really get to talk to my football but uh, yeah, where where are you at right now? You talk about your family being a part of this or being down from Texas. Rather, what's the scene like and what's the celebration like for you guys? Right now, it's not even all my family, but the family that I do have her going crazy.

We're home at my mom's house. Uh yeah, it's a very an adnosphere like we're just going crazy right now to dance and I have to actually get away, have to walk out the street. That's great, which and you know you mentioned dan Quinn. That's when we heard your name called. You know what I think about with dan Quinn is these you know, these tall cornerbacks and obviously you you fit that bill really well? What what um? Just in general? What is it about your game that

you think appealed to the Cowboys? And what do you think you bring to this team? Uh? Stepping in here? Well yeah, so uh just I mean I'm six four, so it's rare. Uh I'm an anomaly.

De Sean, you talk about fitting into that system. What kind of system did you specifically run during your time at Oregon State and how do you think that'll translate to the pros. We were like a multi skinting defense. We ran anywhere from zero to six. So, um, just my my versatility. Uh,

it's definitely going to help me. Another. I played a lot of man coverage at order State, so um, I mean I could do it all. So I feel like I fit anywhere. But Dallas is just a perfect shit. I've been talking go for it. Continue. Sorry, I didn't mean to cut you off there. Yeah, Like for some reason, I had a gut feeling that I was gonna get that call from Dallas and it can happen.
