00:00You signed a big contract extension, you know, you have a featured back status, you solidified
00:05your space in the NFL, and then as everybody in the world is going through the same thing,
00:11we get hit with COVID-19, the novel coronavirus. What was it like to have reached sort of
00:17this place that you've worked your whole life toward and then have it put on pause?
00:23You know, it just goes to show that, hey, I mean, there's things bigger than football.
00:28A lot of things, you know, football is this big in the grand scheme of the world. And so I think
00:33it's just special that, you know, we're able to come together, you know, follow these rules and
00:38everyone for the most part is following, hey, okay, we need a social distance so we can protect us,
00:43you know, ourselves as humans. And, you know, it's like, okay, we football and all the sports,
00:48we can put that off to the side. Like in the grand scheme of things, our health and our
00:52longevity is the human race is much more important. And, you know, we see the NFL coming
00:58together. You know, we started, you know, Zoom meetings and things like that to be able to,
01:03you know, separate and still try to get some work in, you know, that's why it encouraged me to start
01:07like a Twitch account. And so to keep some type of interaction for fans that want to come in and
01:12just, you know, hang out and still be around, you know, NFL players or see some new content.
01:17It's just, I think it's just bringing the best and the worst out of people.
01:23Either way, I feel like you're on the fence and you go one way or the other, you know,
01:26you might go crazy or you might, you know, try to actually find something to be productive
01:31or maybe a little bit of both. I know when this first hit, I was, everything was canceling and
01:36I'm like, wait a minute, what is going on? Like I had meet and greets, I had signings,
01:41I had fundraisers all canceled and I kind of was going crazy there at first. I needed just to,
01:46you know, catch myself and collect myself and okay, how can I be productive in this time
01:51and try to, you know, be contagious for other people and show them that, hey, okay,
01:56we can make it through this, we can stay strong, we can still work out, we can still, you know,
01:59be social. So for me, I think, you know, I'm trying to find the positives in this
02:05and keep moving forward, you know, because we don't, we still don't know how long it's going
02:08to last because there's still cases, you know, the cases are growing every day. So I think,
02:14yeah, it's just showed me that, hey, okay, when things get tough, you know,
02:18I want to be in a situation where I can help other people that maybe aren't, you know,
02:22doing well in this time.
