how did these last two years help you get established uh just putting in work and and getting to where I am today um just that's all it is working sitting behind guys and learning and playing alongside people and just listening to the vets um I'm blessed to being in the Eagles organization where I come into a room and I got Jordan Mada Lane Johnson Jason Kelce and Landon Dickerson Isaac some all like it's crazy all the vets that I had when I came in here and and how much I was able to learn so it's easy to get to the point where where I am to to learn all this as long as you know somebody's coming in putting in the work over there Kelsey's been around the uh facility a lot in the off season has a locker in the coach's room how much is he still in your ear or are you looking at this like you got to kind of Forge your own way now oh you know I think he's always there if I need to call upon and ask him some questions um so I I I know I can rely on that if I get stuck and need some help or something like that when you were you kind of like going through what calls you would make and like were you kind of comparing it to what Jason called last year uh just making sure we're all on the same page you know if if I thought it was something and he may have thought something different then we can talk through and see uh which one we wanted to do you know um I don't think it was too much comparing but just making sure that we're in the right call how different is this hand the blits now how are we going to handle the blitz calls uh I think that's all of us you know it it's different because it's a process if if uh if a tackle's job is is to look at a certain spot and see if you know safety's rolling down or somebody's covered in a guard spot maybe to look at a different position and Center is supposed to look at a little bit of everything everybody's feeding each other information and same thing with the quarterback all all our calls are feeding each other it's not nothing's going to be all on one person's plate and that's kind of how it's always been it's how it's didn't take a little more of the responsibilities there he he did he's just saw a lot of it and you know it probably took some off of the other people's responsibilities but yeah it's it's full uh everybody's looking and they have their own responsibilities especially when it comes to the Blitz game so more like you sawse I think everybody everybody saw it you know so it it it's still very similar to what it's been and you know everybody's got their own responsibility and job like it has been so it it was never all on one person's plate and it's not going to be like that anymore and it's never was wer wer weren't a center last year but you guys had trouble late in the year picking up blitzes what when you go back and look at that as to try to correct it for this year what do you think was happening in terms of so good at early that it it kind of fell off later in the year um yeah I think uh a lot of it is just you know making sure we're in the right play and figuring out hey if we're not in the right play and if we're not in the right protection can it still work and making sure we have the right Hots and and things go along with it and I think we we got in too much trouble last year making sure everything's perfect and when you try to make everything perfect it's not always going to be perfect and so if you if you can make sure that you have answers to lot of things whether you're in a perfect call or if you're in a a not perfect call uh it helps a lot of the things out you think season you got a lot of those snaps when Jason was injured how much did that help you in hindsight yeah I mean I played center in college and I I played center right when I got here and now I'm back at Center and so that helps just uh be able to feel a little bit of the game out and getting to play those preseason games and and get along with the team you know Jaylen was a quarterback back back then when I was playing Center uh all throughout camp and now I get to go through another camp with him and so that communication just kind of picks back up and evolves throughout uh camp and so I think that helps a ton so thanks thanks guys
