Appearances
Every year I watched five safeties and I would literally watch every single one of their plays and I would make a highlight tape and a low light tape of all of them.
That's what I did throughout my whole career.
Ed was somebody I watched.
I would watch every single one of his plays.
So obviously Ed is somebody who I admired.
I studied, I was obsessed with the game.
There's absolutely a lot of things for Ed in particular that he would do that I'm like, oh man, I need to incorporate that.
And funny thing is, that's what I would use scout team for, to be honest with you.
I was like, oh, I want to do scout team.
I want to do scout team because I'm like, oh, well, you know, I want to try some of the things I've seen how some of these other safeties do.
You know, one thing that I try to tell people about football is it's a hard sport to get really good at in a sense, because we spend our off season working out.
So like the mentality is every off season, the only way that we can get better is to get bigger, stronger, faster.
You know, it's not get better at our skill development.
So for me, I realized that, man, in order for as this for a safety to become better, I need to get more reps at practice.
So I needed like see more.
I need to just continue to see it.
So that's where that's where I really started to change my practice habits of like get more reps on the field so that I could I could see see more.
I actually learned that from from a book of the 10,000 hours book outliers and just talking about like that.
maximize that rep.
So I was like, man, I need to maximize reps on the field.
