Carson for you personally, just put all the circumstances within this training camp. What do you take away from this training good? Yeah, I mean personally, obviously I didn't quite get as much practice as I would like to have in camp and everything, but UM, I feel I feel good. You know, I feel good physically, I feel like my knees feeling good, arbum is feeling good, come out, feeling kind of ready to go a little bit. And um, as a team, you know, it's kind of a normal camp,
you know, kind of up and down. Some days, offense gets the best of the defense and vice versa, and UM, I almost start to get tired of seeing the same guys over and over and claiming the same guys. So I know we're excited to kind of go into the next phase and be done with camp. Yeah. I mean, I think throughout this whole injury, I've learned a lot about myself and just how to just surrender control that
I'm not in control of everything. I can't control everything that the Lord has really all of that UM laid out before him. And so I've really learned a lot about myself and how to be patient and really just surrender, UM everything to the Lord's will. And on my own week you said you will reevaluate things after that second game.
What do you anticipated happening after a Yeah, I think right now the plan is hopefully next week we get progress back into eleven on eleven and everything and so um that that is the plan going forward, and then again it will just be constant communication with coaches and doctors. Um as we as we progress. First morning on the radio, that is the sentiment changed at all? Is that fell back? He can't started? Yeah, I mean that's what I felt really all off season, Like we've talked about a ton,
you know, that's been my goal. Um. I think there's been really no secret that it's going to be close, you know. I mean, seeing where I'm at in camp and um, finally hopefully next week doing eleven on eleven, I think naturally it's it's gonna be close. Um, And ultimately it won't be just my caller, coaches call. It'll um come down to what the doctors say. Really, ideally a week before to play the first team, if you start next week, what do you look at the show
once you get back? Yeah, I think hopefully just show him that, Um, I look comfortable. I look comfortable. I look confident, um, and I know I will. You know, that's just kind of uh and what the reps I have gotten and even seven on and everything. I mean, I feel confident in in both my knee and um, just this team and the offense and everything. So hopefully I can just kind of jump right back into to where I left off. Oh you didn't have a lot of reps today? What was it I couldn't give. Yeah,
I mean, ideally the more reps the maryor um. But um, like you said, rookie year, that was an even whole other animal, not even knowing I was starting and everything. So um, but yeah, obviously missing reps. Um just just gotta go with it. And so whatever the case is, I know I'll be ready whatever whatever comes. You would be clear for the next evaluation for tal while. So now, um, that's the last the last hurdle is still going to
be being clear for contact. You know obviously in practice will still be wearing the red jersey, so there will be no contact for the quarterbacks and everything. But um, again we're it's it's getting close, and we're gonna be close. You've gone three weeks now, adatro on al Sean at least Nelson's been gone for weeks ago. It's just a concern for you that if you're not having receivers out there,
I would say concern. Obviously, you'd love to get reps with those guys and UM with al Sean, you know, kind of him still working back from his injury now Nellie just banged up and everything. The more work you can get, the better. But I think we've developed chemistry over really last offseason, last all all of last season UM and even a little bit UM just constantly watching film and talking through things together that I think we'll I think we'll be fine. I'm not too worried about it.
But like like you said, I mean we'd we'd love to get more rep mic back, and you know he's talking to hand and said, you know, one of the reasons you sign it here here and what you guys can be he's got been around, played for another teams ten years from the lead here that what does that make you think? And then what kind of addition to
seeing that, Yeah, I think I think it's humbling. First of all, I think it's speaks a lot about UM, the coaching staff and the guys, we have here um and in the capability that that he sees in this offense and the potential um and then what he has the offense obviously is to speak. I mean he's you
see him out there, He's had a different gear. Uh, he can he can roll and obviously missing a couple of practices last week, it's good to get him back out here and m kind of see what he can do against our dbs and everything, and we're excited about what he can add to this offense. What's your understanding for what the determining factors are going to be whether it goes one? Yeah, I mean it's it's a constant communication.
I mean we'll see how uh the eleven on eleven goes and everything, but ultimately it's it's not my call. It's going to be the doctor. So maybe we'll have to interview the docs and n ask him more or less optimistic about it. And you were when started. It's been about the same, you know, I've been the whole time. Just it's gonna be close. You know, I knew I was gonna just worry about it each day. I'm getting better each day and making sure physically my knee was
solid each and every day. So I'm trying not to play the what if game and predict the future because it's out of my control. Um, but I feel about the same as I did early on. So again I feel it felt great. Honestly, it's felt great. I mean, uh, throughout the offseason and rehab. You know, once camp hits, you kind of up in um the amount of work. Obviously you don't see me in eleven on eleven, but sometimes I'm on the other field getting extra work in
and so UM definitely increase the workload. And the knees responded great. You guys have data on your kind of velocity and stuff that they're able to tract. You keep an eye on that stuff with pay attention to it. I have not. UM, I don't even know. I just
know how. I just go by how I feel. UM and I feel good and arm fields good drafted that let you see someone who relationship Yeah, I mean, obviously bring in Christian um as another solid guy, you know, coming out with him, kind of knowing him a little bit, UM not not super well, you know, throughout the process, it's just it's combine. Everyone's just kind of run a million miles an hour or so. Um got a chance to talk to him throughout a little bit and now,
UM just good to good to see him here. And you know, the more talent we feel we can have, the better. Yeah. Obviously I remembered the controls to the doctors, as I said, But it's the most positive part for you, the fact that you've been able to be out here every day and that swallowing that maybe took off the field. Yeah, I mean, it's obviously a very positive sign just seeing, uh, that I have been able to be out here forever.
Practice on my knees responded well each day. Obviously not getting the reps I would I would like because of the you know, just where we're at. But um, the positive is how it has responded. And it's not just it's not just practice, it's things we're doing the way room missing are doing in the training room and things have been going well. Thanks for as m
