00:00 I don't get it twisted, I'm happy I had an interception, but
00:02 I definitely don't want that to be the story line.
00:04 I just wanna talk about how we got a good, hard, hard division win.
00:09 My success, it comes from the preparation that I put in,
00:15 the team around me, I guess.
00:18 It's not just me, I work really hard during the week to prepare myself.
00:23 >> I see.
00:25 >> I did with Ramsey.
00:26 And yeah, it's just a product of it.
00:31 It was a great, hard-fought win for the team, though, I suppose.
00:35 >> Jalen, what were some of the emotions that were kind of flowing through your
00:37 body, your mind as you made this return?
00:39 And was it ultimately all of the gold that come to this game, or
00:42 what was the kind of pinpoint, timetable for you?
00:46 >> Emotions, a lot of them, but mainly just extremely thankful,
00:51 extremely grateful.
00:53 God has blessed me, and he continues to bless me, and
00:55 continues to show me so much grace and mercy, and even when I don't deserve it.
00:59 So I'm just super thankful that I have praying friends and family around me.
01:05 And that God just puts me in situations to be able to show who I am and
01:09 thrive and worship him out there on the field.
01:13 So I just felt all those emotions running.
01:17 And the timeline changed so many different times, honestly.
01:23 But it got to a certain point where I kind of circled this game.
01:29 Cuz I just, when I put my mind to certain things, I just go for it all out.
01:35 And I feel like your mind is so powerful that you can kind of will the rest of
01:40 your body to heal quicker or get back strong enough, or whatever you gotta do.
01:44 So yeah, I circled this game a little while ago.
01:48 And then my whole staff, coaches, trainers,
01:53 everyone on staff, everybody, we kind of locked in on a specific plan to meet that
02:00 goal, but yeah, they first told me I'll be back by December, late December.
02:07 And I really wanted to beat that timeline at least by a month.
02:13 But I don't know, it's something about the month of October,
02:18 it's a special month to me.
02:21 A lot of my mom, dad, a lot of my people, my shorty, everybody's birthday in October.
02:27 October's just a month for the Rams, you know what I'm saying?
02:31 So it's kind of special for me.
