00:00What if I told you that, uh, that digs practice today?
00:19Yeah.
00:20I've been waiting to hear what, how did he look?
00:21How were things?
00:22The visor was, the pictures looked good.
00:25Yeah.
00:26Digs practice.
00:27He didn't do the team period stuff.
00:29He did seven on seven.
00:31So we were kind of waiting for him.
00:33I talked to some people in the front office about this.
00:36When are you going to put him out there?
00:38They were saying, Hey, we're going to take our time with this.
00:41We're going to try and ramp him up and let him be a part of this.
00:45We kind of felt like that maybe the full practice would be a little bit later, uh, later on,
00:51but he did go out there in the seven on seven period and competed a little bit.
00:56Uh, you know, it's kind of, you know, got to the movement part of it.
01:01He's just kind of, kind of feeling his way a little bit, not really trying to do anything
01:05near crazy out there, but he was out there practicing.
01:09Let's see if you do a little bit more tomorrow, um, you know, and with the team, but he, he
01:13did not do anything where it was 11 on 11.
01:17It was only seven on seven.
01:19How was the quickness and the change in direction?
01:21You know what Dawson, it was, he, he really, I don't think he cut it loose from what I
01:26was, you know, I, it was like, it was pedal and then it was break and it was move it.
01:32There wasn't anything like really driving on a ball or trying to not, it's almost like
01:37he went out there to say, okay, let me get a feel for what these routes are looking like,
01:42or if, how can I, how could I pedal and how quick are these guys getting on me in order
01:48to, you know, to, to get an idea of the, of the speed, because that's where it really
01:55looked.
01:56Like I say, it wasn't like, okay, I'm going to carry a guy down the field or I'm going
01:59to carry a guy across.
02:00It was like, let me just get a little bit of a feel, uh, uh, of how the speed of the
02:06practice was going to be.
02:07Because when he went out, uh, Nation right came in and it was playing as that, uh, as
02:14that right cornerback.
02:16So it was just an opportunity to get him some work in the seven on seven.
02:20He did.
02:21Let's see if he'll do a little bit more tomorrow.
