Transcript

00:00What's the competition like in the QB room with, you know, you and Austin are close,

00:09but what's it going like against him every day?

00:11How's that kind of relationship been like with you guys going to the starting spot?

00:15I feel like overall, just in general, the whole quarterback room has been competing pretty well.

00:20You know, this spring that, you know, Coach Stein has just pushed us every day,

00:24just as a whole group.

00:25We're not worrying about who's going to start.

00:26We're not worrying about who's one, who's two.

00:27More of us, just in general, we're just all pushing each other.

00:31We're all out there.

00:31If a mistake happens, we're all coaching each other.

00:33Every time we make a great play, we're always congratulating each other.

00:36So it's just been a great quarterback room, great healthy room, and it's been going pretty good.

00:42There's a lot of high expectations for you heading into this season.

00:45Multiple of your former teammates have made some pretty bold claims.

00:49How do you deal with those high expectations?

00:51Do you silence outside noise, or do you kind of use it to motivate you?

00:54I just know Coach Landon always tells me pressure is a privilege.

01:00I just feel like I'm blessed to be here, blessed to be where I'm at.

01:04It's overall, just in general.

01:06I'm not really thinking about, you know, down the line, the season or things like that.

01:09I'm thinking about every day, just how I'm getting better at practice,

01:12how I'm helping the team around me get better.

01:14But overall, like I said, you know, it's always good to think ahead,

01:16but right now I'm just living in the moment.

01:18Appreciate you.
