Hey, Marcus, Hey, the coming off last season, you guys obviously almost almost make the playoffs. What are your what are your expectations for this team in sixteen? Uh, the show some time of improvement from last year. I think we did a lot of good things last year. I think it was some things that we can improve on. And that's what we're gonna try and focus for on this year, is making those improvements. Marcus, what's the mood today? You know, with everybody getting nights together. Uh, you know
you were the first day. It's kind of like the first day of school. You know, everybody's kind of everybody's happy to see you. So we talk about what they've done in the off season and families and things alan things of that nature. Marcus, did you guys talk about today? You know the fact that Ryan Fitzpatrick is still unsigned and now isn't there with him. Uh, we just wear about football. Everything Uh that goes on with during players back, We leave that up the stairs. We just we just
played football. And Marcus, how do you think the secondary will absorb the loss of GRAMARTI? Uh, even if you have a guy that magnitude, that guy has been playing for a long time. And play at a high level for uh for so long. Um, you know, I think you're gonna miss You're gonna miss some things there, but uh grow was Uh he left a lot of good gyms with with us as as general players. We've learned a lot from from a lot of the things he did,
not just on the field, but off the field. So I think that will that will help us move forward. How is that leading? And if he's still in the cat I mean that's that's sort of the the trainers who as a coach to too speak upon that. Marcus. When you look at Boster screen and he played obviously most of the slot last year, a little bit of outside. What did you see from him that leads you to believe he could be a successful full time guy outside corner? Uh just put it on the film of Cleveland before
you got here. Played outside, moved inside when he went to third down. Uh, it's just so happened. We had uh to premarities and revis So he was more of a nickel guy. But you know, there's no doubt you can play it is It's been proven, Marcus. You were probably pretty happy when they signed Jarvis Jenkins. You guys go back aways. Did you describe your you know, how
close you guys are in your relationship? Yeah, I mean obviously when you live with a life for four years in college, you want to have a uh close relationship be actually Uh how doser in the same complies now and you know we still we work out with each other in the off season, and we travel together in the off season. Our families are still closed. Our families communicate. Um, I go to his camps, he comes to my camps's
Uh that's that's a solid team of your relationship. When you say you live together in college, do you guys? You mean you guys literally roommates literally roommates four for four years. Oh and what kind of player that Jet's getting in? I think Jones is real versatile. I think he's a guy that has the power to be able to be stout, take on double teams and stopped the run.
But he's kind of built. He's kind of built where the nobody as isn't as big for he has sort of he has the quickness of of a mind backer and good feed up the mind backer. Uh and which I think helpfully with his passing rush. Marcus, you were considered I guess in a way, it's hot, Boles said, as Mike and Kagan said it kind of that quarterback at the secondary year ago. Going in now to year two within this defense again, do you feel even more comfortable in a way that you can now take that
leadership role to just another level. Yeah. I think every time you've done something, you've done something for the first time, you have no choice but to get better. You learned from the things you did the previous year, um and you hope to improve upon them and usually you do so, uh you know, hopefully I can take it to the next levelm I just want to be uh improved in every aspect of my game, and that's what I'm trying to look to do every year.
