00:00 >> He did a good job, has done a good job with just keeping the same approach.
00:03 You don't see no type of panic and no type of anxiety in him.
00:08 I think that's just him from a personality standpoint too.
00:11 And whatnot, I think he's doing a great job.
00:13 >> Landon, what happened with the peck on Saturday?
00:16 >> I was just, a peck.
00:19 >> [LAUGH] >> How are you feeling at this point?
00:22 You think there's a shot you come back in the next two weeks?
00:25 >> I'm gonna take it one day at a time.
00:26 But if you know me, don't count me out.
00:32 >> How frustrating is it to, I mean, you guys, all the free agent,
00:35 inside linebackers have come in, you guys have just had this rash of injuries.
00:39 How frustrating is it to see Cole and Kwon, and now you have an injury too?
00:44 >> It's football.
00:45 It's football.
00:47 That's why everybody in the room is important.
00:50 That's why everybody needs to know, you know what I'm saying,
00:53 what to do when they know it's called on.
00:56 And I think we've done a great job with that thus far this year.
00:58 I think when he was asking about AC, I think AC has done a great job with that.
01:03 And we're not in a, yeah.
01:05 >> How, have you ever been a part of a position group like this that's gone
01:08 through so many injuries and
01:10 you have to pull so far into the bench to get guys on the field?
01:14 >> I think my second year, yeah, we had lost Dante,
01:17 and Dante, Hotower, and Kyron Lloyd for a minute.
01:23 And it was just me, I think, and David Harris.
01:26 Yeah, I think we lost David too, so.
01:29 >> It's part of the nature of the position.
01:30 I mean, linebackers specifically, you have to have physicality,
01:35 you have to have speed, change of direction.
01:38 You don't see guys, I guess, playing well into their late 30s like you do other
01:42 positions.
01:42 >> I'm not in my late 30s.
01:43 >> I know you're not, but I'm just saying.
01:45 >> [LAUGH] >> In general, like-
01:46 >> I'm not even in my 30s.
01:47 >> In general, it's a tough position, I guess, to stay healthy and
01:51 longevity wise, it's just a lot to task them.
01:54 >> I mean, you can say, I mean, I think we all know who we are.
01:59 Why not like that?
02:01 I think, like I said, I'll never discount Cole and
02:06 Kwon and John, I don't think Miles is today.
02:09 >> How much of a boost was Miles for you guys on Saturday?
02:12 >> Man, I think he did a great job.
02:14 I think he came in, I think he communicated well, led the group well,
02:18 stuff like that, I think they played great as a collective.
02:21 I think Michael did a great job of communicating, you know what I'm saying,
02:27 with him when he was in, same with Mark Robb.
02:29 I think they played great as a collective.
02:31 >> What's your role this week?
02:33 You know what I mean?
02:34 How do you view how you can help that group?
02:37 >> How can I help them, man?
02:38 I just, I'm staying into meetings, I'm out at practice.
02:41 I'm just being that eye for them, the extra eye, and whatnot like that.
02:48 I'm still, being me, still very engaged and whatnot like that, so yeah.
