Sat down with Clarence Hill Jr. and spoke on working with the Dolphins as a consultant in the offseason. Let's listen to what Troy had to say.

I don't know. I think the dolphins were wise in understanding my relationships around the league and knowing that I have information that they don't have or can't get. And I think they were smart in taking advantage of that, whether it was through me or through somebody else. The Cowboys have never elected to do that, at least with me. You know, maybe they have with others. But no, I don't feel there's a conflict. But But I will say I'm pulling for the dolphins. And I know that because now I have something at stake. And I think they hired two really talented, wonderful people.

And I think that's going to prove itself out. Now, 26 is going to be a tough season because of the cap that took a big hit when they, when that led to a go. But, you know, time will tell. But, yeah, I'm pulling for them. I want to see them do well because I feel like my fingerprints are on it as well. Well, Cowboy didn't mind. You're going to trade Jordan Brooks and Cowboys?

I like Jordan Brooks. That's my guy Clarence Hill, Jr. I've known Clarence for a while. He's always at the Super Bowl. He used to be the beat writer for the Cowboys. I think he's kind of doing his own thing, not right, isn't he? Or is he still with the Cowboys? But he got an opportunity to sit down with Troy,

who's one of the great players in Cowboys. Yes, sir. Joe, what do you think about in Ocho, you can chime in with this, man. What do you think about Troy, one of the great players in Cowboys history, and Jerry allowed him to give Intel to the Dolphins? I mean, I don't understand what kind of intel is he going to have that the organization and the resources that they have that they can't find out on their own. When it comes to picking players, when it comes to getting players, I mean, there's film

study, you have scouts, you have GMs. I think it's more of GMs. I think it's more of gyms than coaches because he gets an opportunity to talk to these people. He's not in production meeting 19 weeks of the year. Troy is. He's not joining,

not meeting with head coaches than general managers. Troy is. Yeah. But how is that? So he's picking up schemes and what they do and how they operate. Hey, hold on, oh, Joe.

So the dolphins gave Akeman a job? As a consultant, they say, look, we got a couple of, probably a couple hundred thousand or a million dollars to come here, look at assess what we have, look at where you think we're weak, where we're strong, where we can get better,

who are some of the coaches, who are some of the executives that you think would work well here in Miami? Oh shit, y'all know Jerry ain't studying it. He don't need, you know none of that matter, huh? You could have Jesus and the 12 disciples in the goddamn Dolphins front office

if you ain't got the goddamn product on the field. But who picking the players? You don't think, you don't think the people, you don't think the guy in Detroit did a good job of picking the players. He traded for golf. He picked J-Mo.

He picked Gibbs. He picked Ammon Ra. He picked Hutchinson. He picked all those guys. What about the guy in Chicago? Phenomenal. Pohl's, Brad Holmes, if I'm not mistaken, is in Detroit?

So what about these guys that the guy did in Chicago? It's not making a difference? Mm-mm. Look at where they were before. those guys took over and look at where they are now. You think Hyr-Rosman is not making a difference? Oh, huge difference. You think Brett Beach, who's picking the guys in Kansas City.

And I can ask you a question? Yes. So do you think that the answer to the Dolphins problem is getting the answers from Eggman? Eggman? I think the thing is that they're looking for who do you think would be a fit. Right. You see the thing is you can have a fit, but if Jerry's going to say,

I want you to play this guy or I want you to take that guy, but that guy might not fit the offensive scheme. He might not fit the defensive scheme, but Jerry likes it. Then what do I do? And then if it doesn't work, then who gets blamed, don't you? Just like the lucre trade. Who gets blamed for the lucre trade, Ocho? Mr. Nico.

But who made that decision? Josh Dumont. Up top. This is why the Cowboys don't have it. Look, I think the thing is that Troy has access because he's doing these production meetings. He's talking to head coaches. He's talking to assistants because sometimes obviously the head coach ain't leaving, but you're talking to a defensive coordinator.

You're calling a linebacker coach. You're talking to this or that. Or you're talking to front office people and they're giving you intel. And he said, well, I think this got to be a great fit for who you, for who you are, your personality. I think this guy would be the, because at the end of the day, Ocho, when we put this thing together,

and I said, I think Ocho, Ocho, why Ocho? I said, because he don't take himself serious and he's the direct opposite of me. I'm serious and he very little stuff serious. But he understands the game. So you got to have a pair. You got to have a match. I can't have somebody

the exact same as me, but I couldn't have somebody the exact Ocho and somebody that's the exact, or Ocho, that's not going to work either. Yeah. So you have to have a yin and a yang. You have to have a give, a pull and a push. I agree.

I, I, I, look, Jerry, Jerry, Jerry, Jerry, look, Jerry, Jerry wants the credit. This thing works. Jerry's going to get all the credit. That's just the way it is. That ain't. And I'm a firm believer that you don't realize how successful something can be. as long as you don't care who gets the credit. Jerry wants the credit.

That's why he's the GM and the owner. GM owner, VP. Yeah. I mean, all I know is Mr. Kraft. Mr. Kraft, like, he's the owner. He ain't have a whole bunch of titles, but all I know is how many times he picked that trophy up? How many times did Clark Hunt pick that trophy up?

How many times is Jeff Lurie picked that trophy up? Jerry ain't picked that trophy up in 30 years, old Joe. Hmm. You're not changing. You're not changing. I mean... All right, not too much, fellow. Not too much.

Not too much. But that's the thing. As long as you don't care who gets the credit, you can be really, really good. But if you start thinking about... Because sometimes you undermine your own self because you care... You worried about who getting the credit.

Right. I want to win. Yeah. I get it. I still don't think. Obviously, even though, you know, Troy Aikman, obviously Super Bowl winning quarterback, he does what he does.

Superb analyst, you know, color and commentary when it comes through helping the Dolphus franchise and changing some of the things. And I just don't, I don't see it. I don't see it. Tell me what you don't see. Maybe Joe and I can help you see what you don't see. No, nothing going to see

because we're going to see when it's time to play, that regards to who you come in there, it's not going to change until you get the goddamn players. You have to be, and you got that. We haven't had the products in Damarino. We haven't had the products in Dan Marino. But I don't know if you've had,

I don't know if you've had a look. And you hear this stuff coming out about, about McDaniels and guys possibly didn't respect to them and how he talked to the players in X, Y, and Z. There has to be a healthy combination. There has to be good players, but the players have to have a respect for a coach, It's got to be that.

If the players don't respect the coach, they're going to run them up. Go ahead. Before Mike McDaniels, who do we have? The black guy that's in D.C. In Minnesota. Yes. He was respected. He was respected.

He was. But the thing was he didn't want the quarterback that the owner overruled him. He what? Again, see, there's a problem. That's where the problem lies. You have someone that knows football already and understand what it takes to win, listen, I don't think he's the answer for our

organization going forward. So now the owner was the problem. Yeah. My thing is, if you hire somebody to do a job, or you're going to let him do the job. If you hire somebody to do your roof, you're going to be out there telling him what he should, how he should do it? Or are you going to let or are you going to let the both folks do it, Joe? You have asked somebody to do a job in your house if you weren't there to tell it, well, you should have did it. Right, right. If you're telling him what to do, why are you paying him this money? When you know what to do, just do it yourself. Yeah.

Yeah. But like you said, Ocho, we'll see if they get the right pieces, if this the right coach, if this is the right general manager. They clearly didn't believe. They believed that they were bloated. They believed that their quarterback and some of the other pieces that they have, they weren't going to win. And they went for it.

Give them credit. Stephen Ross Belize and look, let's go for it. I'm going to sign Tyreek. I'm going to sign Bradley Chubb. I'm going to sign a lot of these guys. It didn't work out. Yeah. Yeah.

Now they start from scratch, boy. They're absolutely. They're absolutely start from scratch. It's going to be a rough, what, one or two years, Joe? Ain't even saying that, though. Because they got all that dead cap money. Yeah. You think they got Tyreeks money?

They got Tours money. They got Tours money. Cool. Did they trade Mika Fitzpatrick? They traded somebody. They got a lot of, they got a lot of other money out there. So you got a hundred,

you got $100 million in dead cap money. Oh, Joe, your gupp is, your gupp is going. Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo. Hey, listen, my, my, my, my dolphin, my old cowboy is in the same boat, homie. No, oh, no, no, no, no. No, no. We're in the same boat.

We are not in the same bowl of them guppies. Don't do that. Joe, when the season ended, y'all was on the same couch we was on. What is you talking about? Ocho, you know y'all starting over, Ocho, come on, stop it, now. We got some promise over here. Okay.

Oh, no, don't do that. Don't do that. 30 years, are you serious about promise? You've been trying to get out wide receiver since the season been going on. Hold on. You still got promise after 30 years. You still believe that?

Yeah, we got a decent team, Ocho. We're going to be all right. Yeah, we got a decent team. We need a little help defensively. Yo, you have a decent team every year, Joe. y'all say the same thing every year joe you talk about delusion this is part of it joe you part of the problem no no you're being naive now you're naive with them damn bangles that's who's naive we better than y'all that's a damn lie we'd be better than y'all no yeah no okay we'll we'll see this year all right

we play y'all we're gonna play y'all this year i would hope not joe i would hope that's not what you won't well i bet the house i know we're gonna run mud hole in y'all oh who gonna stop Who's going to stop Jamar? Joe. Who's going to stop team? The cowboys are faced with an approximately between 175 and 182 million in dead cap money, which is about 58 to 60 percent of their total cap space. Tua, Hill, Jalen Wattle, where they still got him.

And, oh, no. I thought they traded. They traded Jail and Water to the Broncos. Yeah. So, Tua, Hill, Waddle. and Ramsey. So guys are not even on their team eating up their cap space.

And Tyreek Hill too, right? Yeah. Yeah. Tua, Tyreek Hill, Jalen Wadle, and Jalen Ramsey. Damn. That's crazy. The most ever was $127 million in 2022. So they're over almost $60 million clear of that.

Damn. They're real tall. $56 million in the dead cap space. Waddle is 26. Bradley Chub is somewhere between 10.9 and 20, and also with Tyreek Hill and Jalen Ramsey. Damn. So basically, over the next couple of years,

they're going to have to build this thing. They're going to have to hit it out of the park, Ocho and Joe, with their draft pick. And they draft. Yep. Yep. When you got that kind of deck, when you got that kind of deck, you can't spend no money in free agency.

Who they got the quarterback this year? They signed the guy from Green Bay. Malik Willis. Yeah, we got Malik Willis. Yeah, who he got to throw to? Ocho. Tutu Atwell. Tutu Atwell, Washington.

You know, some other guy, I mean, just, I mean, no disrespect. Just, you know, some guys. Some guys, you know, they're decent. You know, it ain't no Justin Jefferson, no Jamar chases. And I mean, nothing like that. We have a good core receivers. We still need a dog, though. You do.

You need a dog. Because you look at what Malik. Leak Willis was able to do in Green Bay when Joe and Love went down and understand the success he had, but also look at the supporting cast he had. Look at who he was doing it with. Exactly. So I don't think you sign him and you bring him into the Dolphins repeat the success he had in Green Bay, but he ain't got the same supporting cast.

Right. Hey, you watch ballroom dancing. That guy might be doing his thing, but look at that lady he's doing it with. Because she's doing all those moves he's doing it backwards and heels.

What high school did you go to? I went to the North Gwinnett, you know, Suwanee. Gwinnett County, Gweneck County got the best football, so all the dogs come out there. Okay. Yeah. They have. Gwett County has really, they've really built up all those schools out there because they've really gotten, and now you got Buford out there, you got, you know, all those big-time schools out there.

You're all American. Obviously, six to three hundred and twenty-six pounds. You can do a lot, get you twitchy, can collapse the pocket, can rush the quarterback, can stop the run. What click for you this year? What was it about this year? You say, you know what, I got all this. You put it together.

So make a long story short, you put it together. And I'll just say, man, opportunity. I got a chance to make something happen. I had like 13 games. Like every play I treated like opportunity. You know, one day I want to be on that cover. So it's just like, it's that mentality, you know. I'm on the field.

You know, I got the black face going. You know, I'm on it. Yeah, I'm all the way in it. Lost in. Yeah. For sure. Yeah. Hey, so far, right, obviously having a great season this year with Ohio State.

The process, obviously, your childhood dream is wanting to make it to the NFL. How has the process been so far? Has it been everything you dreamed of to date that you thought it would be before you even made it? But I'll just say, yeah, for sure, man. You know, when you a kid, especially coming from Arkansas, ain't nothing but one gas station. You don't know. You know, growing up, man, just, no, it's a drink. come true. You know, we ain't, I ain't never dream

about this when I was a kid, you know, he was just living. No. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but, you know, growing up, man, it was just, you know, we played ball. No, I've been playing since I was four, so, man, this has been my life, you know. Hey, hey, tell me something. What's your plans for the draft, man?

You plan on going down to Pittsburgh for the draft? Hey, man, I'm going to have that big Cuban on. I got my little one on right now, but school, double-stet, popping it. Yeah. Put that thing on. Hey, whole family gonna be there.

What kind of watch you're gonna have on? What kind of watch you're gonna be wearing? Two-tone AP. Ooh. Ooh. Oh, too-tone AP. Oh, man. Oh, man.

Hey, that boy got money. Two-tone. Yeah, yeah. He said he got the big Qibon. Nah. The big Cubana. He said, yeah, they're pretty. It's pretty.

I like it. Listen, I got, I got one more question. I got one more question. Obviously, there are certain players that you watch. watching the next level. I'm sure there's some players that you aspire to be like or that you look up to.

Who do you can pay your playing style to and who are players in the NFL right now that you look up to and say, you know what, I want to make my mark or leave my mark like they did? So I'll be like, you feel me? I like physical defensive tackles, man.

Yes, sir. Like me, I don't really, I look at other NFL players, but no, my game is special. Like, you see me on the field making these plays. You know, I had 65 tackles from the head-up nose position. Ain't nobody doing that.

Yeah. I'm trying to make my own mark, you feel me? Yeah. I like it. But I'll say, like, man, Aaron Donald, Cam Hayward, you know, he came out of Pichy Ridge. That's who I was going to say probably Cam Hayward. Because he's a guy that plays like, he can play the, he can play the tilt, he can play the under. Most of the time he lines up, he can be the three.

I mean, the head up the nose. He can be the three. He can be the five. He can be the defensive end. He's multiple, but he's physical. Hey, I got a question. Hey, I got a question for you. Hey, what's your superstition on, like, the game day?

Like, what's one thing you got to do on the game day that you ain't chained? Oh, man, I was very superstitious. And once I started this, even when I went to Baltimore, the trainers, I told the trainers, obviously I have my pad, you know, double-sided tape on my pad. That's in, they're in my locker. I need three packs of big red. I need probably like six ad mail.

Oh my God. I need three. I need three blueberry cake donuts. I need long, I need long linemen socks that I'm going to get, take out my locker and I'm going to go give them back to the equipment guy and get running back socks. I get tape.

I get a regular routine tape job to go out there. And then I come back in and I get retake again, but I get it taped to my skin. Yeah. I do the same thing. you know, I go stand on the road, Kate, I would go stand, I would press the elevator, and I would go stand in front of the elevator door

that I thought was going to open. And I had to do that until I got it right. So if it's three, four elevators, I'm going to press it, and I'm going to go stand in front of one that I think is going to open. And was that door open that I'm standing in front of? Oh, they're in trouble. That team that we're playing in trouble. I already know what you was on.

Hey, you have superstitions. You had a routine that you followed. Yeah. I don't know. I just, no, my superstition, like, now, I was big in my faith. So, like, every, before every game, no, I'll just open up the Bible. I'll pray first. And, like, whatever scripture comes up, and I'll just read it. And, like, it's like, it's a different meaning, like, to me, when I read, you know, I read in, like, just words and, like, just words, like, strength, you know, God got you,

things like that. Yeah. Like, it always comes for tuition, like, in real life. And, like, I just forever been doing that, you know? Yeah, it's so funny. Why Ohio State? That's what, wow, Ohio's what? You got Georgia, you got Babi, you got all them schools and you go, you leave Georgia.

I mean, you leave eight to eight and go way to Ohio. Man, you know, this, wait, this draft, man, we got five guys in the first round, man. Oh, I got to give a special shout out to all the five, man. We got Caleb, man, if you went here, Cardnell, Arvel, Sonny, them boys, man, them boys, some dogs. We develop, man. It's a real development. Yeah. You know, it prepare you every day.

You train like a pro. No, nutrition. You got to be like a pro. You got to be accountable every day on and off the field. I like that. Hold on, hold on. Hold on. You said one word.

You said, I heard a word that I hear all the time. You said nutrition. Now, when it comes to nutrition, what would you diet look like? What are you eating? What they tell you to eat? Like I said, man, I'm big in that seafood, man. I'm a seafood secret. No, hey, shout out on the team, man.

Seafood, man. I'm a big salmon guy. I love me to see salmon. Okay. Especially, I'm superstitious, man. I eat the same thing the whole week, man. On the Tuesday, I go salmon. Wednesday, Chipotle.

Thursday, we got to go. Yeah. We got to go big, man. Shout out McDonald's. Oh, we got to go big, man. That's what I'm talking about. You know what I see? See, just because of that, I'm telling you right now.

I'm telling you right now, boy, you're going to be great. You're going to be great. For the simple fact, hey, listen, you're not, you eating healthy, but obviously you're going, you're going other places too. Like, you know, McDonald's was me. I wasn't superstitious, but I had McDonald's every game. I still eat today, and I think that's the reason for my success. You don't get hurt often.

You know why you don't get hurt often? It ain't the salmon. It's not your nutritionist. It's the fact that you eat Big Macs. I'm telling you that's what it is. I know what I talk about. Hey, Matt. Hey, Mac.

Listen, how much your weight, bro? Three what? Like 325 right now. Solid. Oh, that's life. That's life for him. But when I watch you on the field, though, you're so nimble so you carry their weight so well.

How's your training regimen? Like, how you get nimble? Like, is football the only sport you ever played? Bro, man, you got to really look me up. You got to do your research, man. I've been hooping since I was five, man. Yeah. I really wanted to become a hoop.

I really wanted to become like you, man. I used to go to the game. I see Joe Johnson. You feel me? Mike Bibi, Jamal Crawford? Yeah. Man, yeah, all that. But, no, I was a multi-sport athlete.

You know, in high school, I played running back. I had like 500 yards, 12 touchdown. Damn. And I was a dollar. Damn. Kay? Oh, you was told that big, huh? Yeah, for sure.

But see, you see what happened, Kay? When you start eating the Big Macs, you grew out of running back position. See, if you're the game of the Big Macs and kept eating salmon, you'd have been a running back. You'd have been Jamir Gibbs. But you don't know. You have been Derek Henry. Hey, what will be my nickname if I was a running bat?

They'll call you Big Mac. Big Mac. Yeah. You've been running over people. Yeah. Your name would be Big Mac. What? You'd have been running.

Hey, so in what position you play in basketball? Were you the point? You the center? Hey, you're the two. I did it. Oh, man. I'm like point guard, man. I got to facilitate the offense, man.

Run through me. You got to run through me. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Could you dunk? No.

I was a floater. I'm floaters. There you go. Oh, you, are you, Dave, Lord. You let the hard. You take over. Yeah. I like it.

I like it. So, I mean, obviously, as Ocho asked you to say, you know, this was a lifelong dream. You grew up, you know, play it in Texarkana, and later moving to Atlanta, and then playing the game of football. You played it. JV. Pop 1. on a JV high school football, college football. Now, everything that you had is right there.

We're basically two weeks away. Yeah. We're two weeks away from the draft. Two weeks. And everything that you had hoped for and you dreamed about, you prayed about, you said you're a man of faith, and it's about to happen. Have you thought about in that moment, are you going to get emotional? Are you going to think, you know, like, damn, mom, we did it.

Bro, so we hear that. Man, I think about that every day. It's getting closer. We two weeks away. No, just like the whole life, my whole life, man, I just, I felt like the underdog. You know, I finally get to celebrate with the people that's the closest to me. You know, mama, no, mama, you know, I got big bro, sister, auntie, all the fan from Arkansas coming.

Yeah. You know, so, yeah, my best friends from Georgia, you know, it's going to be a good night. And just all the work I put in, you know, it's a lot of. a sacrifice you got to make. I know as a kid, like, back in home that's looking up to me, so, you know, I got to make that happen so they can do the same thing I'm doing, and that's my motivation.

That's what so. Hey, hey, Kay, May, one thing I'm going to tell you, bro, I know you probably working your butt off right now because, you know, you're about to, you know, approach your lifelong dream. The one thing I'm going to tell you, bro, keep that dog mentality.

Even when you get drafted, even when you get that, like, never let your foot up. You know what I mean? Keep working hard, bro. And I always remember, you know, never lose that discipline that you have now. You know, the workouts that you got to go through,

how you eat. Man, when you get in the NFL, bro, don't let up, bro. Don't let up. For sure. You see that hunger? Because a lot of times what happened is that they, okay, my lifelong dream would get to the NFL. Well, not because this is not the destination.

this is the journey. Your destination is once you're done with your career. So that same drive and determination that you got up every and trained for in high school and what you did in college because the scotry report says you're a striker, which lets me know you're great with your hands and you're like, I'm physical.

And the one thing I know about Matt Patricia, and he knows how to come up with the run game. You got to be great with your hand. Nah, son. Ah, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, so on out. Hey. You try to go somewhere. You try to get up on the line back in the middle.

Oh, you're right here. Shade. Yeah, Coach Matt Patricia, you know, he put a lot on my back this year. And it's one thing he always be telling me, he'd be strong in the middle. You know, that's where it starts. Yeah, no, that's where it's going in. And I just took it personal. Each game, you know, now we're here draft.

So, man, it's a blessing, you know. Yeah. You're going to be all right. You know, I know you're going to be right because I ask you who you can pay yourself to, who you are the people that, you know, you inspire to be like. And you said, nobody do it like you. You said nobody do it like you. That let me know you're going in with the right mentality, the right mindset,

and you can make your own name for yourself. So go in there, cause some goddamn havoc. Talk a little shit, too. Don't be scared to talk no shit. Talk a little shit, too. Let them know you here. You know, I've arrived. So, man, I wish you nothing but success, young bull.

And maybe, shoot, you might end up in Cincinnati. Well, it looks like the Bears, the Vikings, Buffalo, Houston, and Pittsburgh have all been labeled possible land- Where do you get that from? Their preference. Are you just- Where do you get that from? My source.

But don't worry about it. You say, do our homework, do our research. My source? Hey, my source. You tell us to do our homework. We do our homework. Yeah, man. Oh, so you don't been to a few of these places.

That's it. Yeah. They want impact. That's all I, that's what I really say to the GMs. And they know, for sure. Hey, cut the tape on. That's it. That's another three words.

To earn it, Garrett must participate. I can't hear you. We can't hear you. Hey. What's that? What's up? Hey, Joe.

Man, Miles ain't, Miles ain't tripping by that man, please. A million. What do you mean he ain't tripping? Well, we talk about Miles Garrett, boy. He's not there for a reason, huh? Sometimes, sometimes the message is clear. The message is always clear.

Man, he don't want to be there, man. Come on, nah. Come on, nah. He don't want to be there. So you think that's why he ain't showing up for the many counts? Yeah. He ain't never missed before. It's OTAs.

Obviously, I'll always. OTAs is voluntary, it's in your contract, you don't have to come. But if you don't come, obviously, you miss your money. He ain't never missed before, I'm sure. You know, don't quote me. I'm just saying, why would they make it a story now? If he's always been there, if he's always been there, he's not showing it this year. You're not showing up for him.

Hell, he got his money, Ocho. He took the money. He took the money. Come on, Joe. I mean, we got it. Can you guys hear me? Yeah. We hear you.

Oh, but here's the thing, though, Ocho. What do they have? What is different? A new coach? A new coach. A new system. Yes, sir. Remember, we had this car, the same thing with Lamar. We had this conversation about Lamar.

New system. So, and look, I'm like, Joe, if they had a million dollars in my contract, I was been there. But like I said, they was trying to give me $50 a day. I said, the hell with you. I said, I worked my last $50 day job when I was in, when I was landscaping back in college. I said, ain't no more $50 a day for me.

But I got a question for you, on. And Joe, think about this. someone like Miles Garrett, you know, as well as he played last year, as well as he played in general, someone like that, that is as valuable as they are, who is the identity, not just that defense, but the identity to that franchise, they still won what, five games, four games or whatever it may have been? Five and twelve. Yeah, Joe, why not give him the opportunity to go somewhere else and give him a chance to win? Why not?

Because you're losing with probably the greatest defense in. that's playing in today's game, why not give my opportunity to do that? Well, maybe they... And I think, and the message to me, I mean, I don't know, maybe I'm tripping, chat, you can let me know if I'm tripping, but to not show up to OTAs, what you've always have, and there's a new regime, new coach of staff, new defense's scheme, new officer scheme, everything being implemented in, and you don't show up?

I mean, I mean, the message has always been clear. He doesn't have to come out and say it. you're actually going to show, okay, is enough is enough? I might be wrong. I kind of thought that like, okay, a new, like a lot of times, like, with a new coach, when a new coach comes, you know, they can have three mini-camps for you get in. You want to, you know, show your face as a leader, you know, learn the defense and plus a million dollars.

I pick up a million dollars why I'm doing that. But, I mean, it had been tough for me because when I'm there, I'm there. I really, I, oh, I really didn't, like, go home like, like, you know, off weeks and stuff like that. Like, you know, some guys like, we get off and we wouldn't have to be back until Wednesday and some guys would go wherever they go. I was never like that.

So when I was there in Denver, I was there. Once I left, I went trying to be back until I absolutely positively had to be back. Yeah, I ain't do that. I ain't do that. Joe, we had our off-season program was 13 weeks. It was Monday through Thursday. Friday, Friday through Sunday was off.

Nine times out of 10, that Friday through Sunday. Sunday, I'm going back to Miami. And I would always, I always do the morning work on a Thursday and I get on a flight Thursday evening, fly to Miami, relax here, don't do anything, probably do some training as well, relax Thursday, then back on the plane Sunday night and then repeat it. It was a 13-week program. It was fun. I really enjoyed it because I'm a gym rat, Joe. Hell, I can't stay out of the gym now. Now I'm playing nothing so you could imagine back then when I was playing. So I was excited to go to the all-season program and just, you know,

see the fellas, man. It was cool to see the fellas. She, I was trying to know fellas. Hey. I remember my rookie early on because Dan, that was a big thing for Dan. You had to be there. I was like, man, I sure hope I can get good enough one day. I don't have to come to this issue.

As soon as I got good enough, I ain't had to come to that issue. Oh, yeah. Hey, you're one of our leaders. I'm leading from Atlanta. That's why I'm leaving for Atlanta. No, no, no, no, no. Y'all not paying, y'all paying him to lead. He's making the big bucks.

Y'all ain't paying me to lead. I'll be in Atlanta. And besides, and then Mike just came to the realization to say, you know what? He's like, I remember in 96, I didn't come, I didn't come back and they didn't do no off-season program. And he was like, we got there practice. He said, let me see what you're looking like.

So I pulled my shirt up. He's like, you ain't never got a word about coming back. Hey, you have And you had the knocks in your stomach Oh What? Joe

Shredded like a Trump tax return Hey Joe That's what I look like now Joe Yeah Well hey

That man That boy That boy looks Like an email It's gone Disappeal I don't I don't like that

Yeah Yeah Yeah But I'm like I'm like Joe though Oh Joe you know dad well if the biggest put a million dollars. Yeah.

And no matter how much you, you ain't let that go. Hey, my, mine was only 250 and I was there. So a million. Yeah. Oh, I mean, I'm there. I'm there. And you know, you know, it's funny too long? When it comes to my crap in general, you don't have to incentivize for me.

Because I love what I do. I love working. I love training. I just, I love being in that environment. But just the fact that to be there, you mean, you're going to pay me this to be there? and I already like to do it anyway? Well, hell, shoot. No, no, no, no.

But see, the thing is with that I did away with the sentence of my contract. After they screwed me out of that hundred grand, I ain't put no more incentive. What do you mean? How they screw out of that $100,000? What happened? Because, man, I'm supposed to get $100,000 for 1,000 yards.

Joe, I had 995 yards at the half. I had 116 yards and two touchdowns. And they ain't throw the ball team? On six catches. And they catch another pass to the second half. Hey, they did that on purpose. I don't know. And guess what?

I ain't put another. If you want to say that, I want nothing. Because y'all, y'all going to pay me what you're supposed to pay me, and I'm supposed to lead the team in catches. I'm supposed to lead the team in yards. I'm supposed to be an all pro. I'm supposed to go to the pro bowl. I don't need y'all incentivize that.

Because y'all paying me enough, that's what I'm supposed to do. I don't need no extra. Hey, Joe, they play that game like that with a lot of people, Joe. Yeah, I know. Hey, I ain't going to lie, boy, that football cut through. That football. Hey, Joe, they play that game with a lot of people. Well, you have incentives.

You need a catches. You need certain yards of the running back, they would play with you. If being on the field, a certain amount of snaps, all that stuff, they keep track of everything. They keep track everything. And they will not let you hit it depending on who you are. And they do it on purpose every time. Like that little chunk of change compared to what they have is going to make a big difference. Because you got to realize 100,000 was a lot of money to me because I was only making $3.25.

Right. $100,000, hey, that's not a little chunk of change in a whole shape. Yeah. Right. Yeah. And you know, I had, hey, I had three. Yeah. Pamples. I got your boy. That got your boy about two, three years of pamphals right now. Payneville, hey, day day, you know, daycare was expensive back day. I don't know what daycare is now, but I know it's expensive on your mind. Yes, sir. Yeah. I can only imagine. I mean, you, hey, you're going to know what it's like soon. And now, oh, Joe, Mike, I don't know nothing.

I thought we talked about this, fellas. No, we, no, no, no, no. No, no, no. No, no, no. No, no, no, no. No, put Joe in it. Me and, me. Hey, you know what?

You know what I just thought about? Think about this. Think about how other ethnicities, other races, they plan having their kids at the same time so they could do everything together. Can you imagine all us, you know, with our babies pushing strollers at the park? No, I can't imagine that.

No. Pretty soon somebody's going to have to push me. That's a job about to push the baby. me that's gonna be my big ass in the chair what the hell you're talking about man hey it's a movie it's a movie it's a movie like that I can't remember what movie it is I think that would be dope though like that that's that's a movie that listen

that's a TV series in itself you know nightcap Joe with the kids I'm already sitting in the third seat in the SUV I'm already sitting at the very back with the thing pulled down with my leg on top of it.

Hey, man, y'all, and y'all are messed up. That was, that was, I just had it. I envisioned us having a TV show as new fathers, you know, after 40. I mean, listen, Netflix was going to pick that up. Hey, hey, hey, now if you, I can reconnect it. I can reconnect the line now, but it's got to be worth it. You know what I mean? Oh, I'm going to talk to Netflix.

Because they, they, they approach me about it. I say, listen, I'm going to talk to the fellas and see what they want to do. Oh, man. I ain't going to move, Joe, that. Y'all, y'all. You ain't got one more. You ain't got one more in y'all. There we go, Joe.

But because of who you are, because the value in which we possess, you know, they were talking, you know, north of 400 million.

Huh? You're 400 million. Boy, listen, I ain't telling you what I heard. I ain't telling what I heard. I'm telling you what I know. Boy, look here. Hey. But they, hey, I would have to take this song to John to Casey.

Now, it was a conversation in vague, you know, and I was vision. Like I was giving them to play and the possibility of it happened happening.

I'm like, man, that would be dope because no one has ever had anything like that. Nobody at the same time, you know, it do want to. It do numbers. You know what? You know what, guys, I'll be honest with you. If I was close to y'all age, if I was in my midfoughties, I said, you know what, guys, let's do it. And I'm damn this 60 years. It's all right.

Hey. And by the time, hey, by the time that thing set in, you know, I have the care. I have to catch one when she just right by seven days afterwards, catch her just right, probably about four, five times a day for like three, four days. Right. You good? You good.

That's where they got them roast balls. I'm six of six years old going to a high school graduation. What's wrong with that? They're talking about Luke Sterling, because I would name him out of my brother, little Sterling, your granddaddy out here, that's my daddy, fool. I don't know.

I mean, them numbers, the numbers sounded real good, which is why I can't... They do sound good. Ocho. Yeah. Hey, Mama changing two sets of diapers. Here's their mind.

Hey, oh, now. Hey, pick up some diapers. For me or for him? Oh, man, that's funny, boy. Hey, boy, I know what you mean, boy. Ooh. I don't know what that they do.

Joe said, I reconnect the life. Bad Ocho out of the damn, but Ocho, you got eight. I know, I know. I want twins, and I'm done. That'll put you right at a, not only when you have a starting five, but you got a bench, too. Yeah, and my bench is going to be just like O'KC. Damn. I'm saying how many boys you got, Ocho?

Damn, you only got two. Yeah, my, my son, my youngest son here, he played receiver at New Orleans. He here with me now. Damn. you only got you so you got hold on you got six girls and two boys yeah you know they have a number you're gonna have twin girls they don't have eight and two I'm at now I'm having I'm having two I'm doing uh FBI make sure you have boys yeah no FBI in vitro I see FBI IVF in vitro fertilization oh okay that's what

Man, that's expensive. No, it ain't. IVF? Come on. IBM probably, what, maybe $2,000. Hell no, that's about $20, $25,000. 20,000, $30,000. Man, don't let the people rip you off.

Come on now. That's a rip-off. Now, you have to go to multiple places and do the price comparisons. Like, you can't get that much. They mess around and put a chicken egg in your girl. He'd be going somebody back. You'd be like gay, you'd be a gay bird to a two-pound hand.

Man, you better go to. Joe, he better go to a regular one. He'd go, hey, oh. Hey, you be like the people that be suing. All of a sudden, it's a white couple and they got a black baby or this black company they got an Asian kid.

Man, you better you better go to somewhere reprimal. You're talking about you trying to save money. Or somebody in backyard. Tell me, man, please.

Yeah. They got, hey, they got a chicken baster. Like they put gravy on the turkey. Hell, no.

Hey, that's funny. Hell now, Ocho. I'm good, man. I got you. Jacksonville Jaguars expect Travis Hunter

to be a full-time corner and a part-time receiver. Rappapaport as Hunter is expected to be a full participant in training count as he continued to recover from an LCL tier that ended this 2025 rookie season. Hunter's snap count weighed heavily favor of the offensive side of the ball last year. Overall, in 2025, Hunter saw 324 snaps on offense, 162 snaps on defense. So, hold on all Joe.

What in Rappaport is reporting is what you and I have. been saying. Yes. Yes. Go ahead. Go ahead. Take it. Y'all, I want y'all chat the conversation. I mean, I want to be one of them guys to say, I told you. Right. I mean, Joe and, and, in, and, obviously, Travis, his dream was going to the NFL. He said it to multiple teams is, I'm hoping to do exactly what I did at Colorado. I want to be able to play both sides of ball and be able to impact the game on both sides of the ball. Unk said, and I said as well, and I agree with him, that would be too much because of the level of talent and elite players at their position.

Think about it. Travis Hunter playing DB. Then having a cover, Jamar Chase, Justin Jefferson, you know, and some of the elite while receiving the league, and then having to turn right record back around and go play on goddamn offense and play receiver. And then still be of value and being very, very tactical and technical when it comes to playing a position. So at that point, you could only be just good on both ends where you could just focus.

we can focus on one position and be great at defensive back, which you really good at, and then have packages to play on offense, which you can also be impactful, where they have special plays designed just for you to get the ball because with the ball in your hands, well, you are special. But a full-time TV is perfect.

It says in the wake of Hunter's injury last season, fans were calling a Jag to choose just one position for Travis. though we could see a hunter get some snaps at wide receiver in 2026. It looks like he will be dedicated, a dedicated quarterback for the foreseeable future. That's what I said. It's easier. Ocho, I mean, in order for this,

and I didn't think, like, he's like, oh, I could do it. I said, 130 snaps like, game? Yeah. Yeah. I said, it's easier for him to play corner and build a couple of packages in, Ocho. We got a couple of sets like they did for Chattel Bailey, like they did for some of the other guys, like they did for time.

There have been other guys that played. Charles Wilson. Yeah, Woody. Roy Green actually started off as a corner, got some plays at wide receiver, and then he was so good. They ended up moving to wide receiver and took him out of corner. But go ahead, Joe. Well, you want to say so. I agree with Ocho.

I think, you know, him being a DB and then kind of similar, similar, or uncle just saying like how the Cowboys use Deon. You know, he was a DB, but they had a package in there for Deon for where, you know, you know, he would be on offense from time to time. And I think that's the same way to Jaguar's probably going to use Travis Hunter. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And like you say, 130-some snaps a game. Hell, that's basically full-time on both sides, right?

And it takes a toll on you, bro, because you never get a rest. No Nope Nope I mean I like it I like that I like it too

I like it too I like that the Jags are doing this so he can focus on one thing Focus on being the best defensive back he can be Depending on where they move them Listen and obviously As great as you are

I hope you become not just a DB But a traveling DVD A DB that follows the one Man Do that You want you want somebody Hitting that payday up Hitting another payday

follow the number one on every team and then have small packages on offense and go impact the game that way. Hey, look, I understand what you guys are saying. Hell, y'all played the game at a very high level. But I love seeing Travis on offense too, Arcan Ocho.

Boy, got some hands. He electric when he catches the ball. You know what I mean? I feel like he's always a big player way. You feel what I'm saying? So I definitely hope they still keep him on offense, you know, from time to time. It ain't got to be, you know, every down.

But for the most part, I want to see that electric side of them, too. Yeah, of course. And I think the thing is, look, you got Parker Washington. You got Brian Thomas, Jr. This company that, you know, had an offseason. So you can plug it in me in defensively is where, like, okay, we need a little help here. Guys that can get out to the quarterback. We can really use travel, like you said, Ocho, travel.

Take care of it. You got Nico Collison, you got guys in that division. Vision. That you're going to have to deal with. Yeah. I'm Daniel Alarcon, and this is my friend. This is much more famous than I am. I wouldn't go that far.
