Cardinals Cover 2 - Health Not Role (Or Expectations) The Focus Of Marvin Harrison Jr.

Ep. 1010 - Your best ability is availability. Yes, it’s cliché. But it’s also true. Last season Marvin Harrison Jr. was not available for every game as he was as a rookie in 2024. To this day that bothers him. Craig Grialou and Zach Gershman talk about what they heard from Harrison this week before getting into a discussion about expectations and a likely role for the former first-round pick in a Mike LaFleur-coached offense. From there, the conversation turns to Josh Sweat and his future, Sean Murphy-Bunting and his comeback from a knee injury, and is this really going to happen? Is Aaron Donald really considering coming out of retirement? The Rams with Donald AND Myles Garrett?!

Speaker 1: Year three? What are the expectations from Marvin Harrison Junior, God,

Speaker 1: Zach Gerstman, Whippenberg Gang. It's been a big topic conversation

Speaker 1: and it will continue to be a big topic conversation

Speaker 1: until well until it isn't. Meaning Marvin has shown what

Speaker 1: we and he all know he's capable of. Plus Zach

Speaker 1: and I talk Josh, what Sean Murphy bunting? And is

Speaker 1: Aaron Donald really considering coming out of retirement. It's Cardinals

Speaker 1: Cover two and it starts now.

Speaker 2: Welcome to Cardinals Cover two.

Speaker 3: Pooda Baker, what Heart?

Speaker 4: What rent? This guy's unbelievable.

Speaker 2: Cardinals Cover two is presented by Hyundai, proud partner of

Speaker 2: the Arizona Cardinals, and by Arizona Cardinals Podcast. Visit Azycardinals

Speaker 2: dot Com slash podcast.

Speaker 4: Right at the.

Speaker 1: Five hit to the ends, up for the Cardinal touchdown,

Speaker 1: Drey McBride, he's been an absolute monster.

Speaker 2: Here's Craig Grioler.

Speaker 1: So I've got to know, Zach, what time did the

Speaker 1: alarm clock go off this morning? Five forty five oh

Speaker 1: five forty five am.

Speaker 4: I forty five am.

Speaker 3: It was five forty five and six fifteen I was up,

Speaker 3: So you hit snooze. No, actually, second alarm. I'm not

Speaker 3: saying I woke up before the five forty five alarm.

Speaker 1: Wow, you were that excited to get to Sky Harbor Airport?

Speaker 3: Yes, I was, and I was also nervous of missing it,

Speaker 3: so we set multiple alarms five.

Speaker 1: Forty five am. When was the last time you woke

Speaker 1: up that.

Speaker 4: Early to listen to the Cardinals? Early?

Speaker 1: There you go, good answer. Why don't you tell the

Speaker 1: bird gang why you won woke up that early before

Speaker 1: the alarm clock went off? And then why you were

Speaker 1: at Sky Harbor Airport this morning?

Speaker 3: So, for the fifth consecutive year, the Cardinals sent off

Speaker 3: to over two hundred more than two hundred and seventy

Speaker 3: five high school students to Washington, d C. On the

Speaker 3: annual Civics Matters Arizona trip. Last year, I took part

Speaker 3: in the trip as just a reporter, obviously covering what

Speaker 3: the students were up to. But the high school students

Speaker 3: they go through a bunch of courses surrounding Civics and

Speaker 3: then they have to answer different prompts and it's a

Speaker 3: very competitive, selective process to get put on this trip.

Speaker 3: But essentially after they are accepted, these students from fifty

Speaker 3: five different schools throughout the state. Forty one of those

Speaker 3: fifty five come from Title I communities. It's all throughout Arizona,

Speaker 3: and they compete to go on an all expenses paid,

Speaker 3: four to day, three night trip to our nation's capital, Washington,

Speaker 3: d C. They get to fly on the official Cardinals

Speaker 3: team plane, which is a one of a kind experience,

Speaker 3: and then once they actually land in DC. You're talking

Speaker 3: about what makes this country great? And I know that

Speaker 3: there's a lot that goes on in today's world, but

Speaker 3: but these students are the future of our country and

Speaker 3: for them to see it for for themselves, for better

Speaker 3: or for worse, I think is very impactful. So, yeah,

Speaker 3: the Cardinals once again tapping into the community. It's something

Speaker 3: that Michael Bidwell talked about. Sandra da O'Connor, she obviously

Speaker 3: was a big Cardinals fan, but you know, she did

Speaker 3: a little bit more than that, uh.

Speaker 1: Time in service with the Supreme Court and all that, and.

Speaker 3: She challenged the Cardinals owner to do more. She said,

Speaker 3: I I believe you could bring more to the table.

Speaker 3: And from there, once Michael Bidwell realized that, you know,

Speaker 3: we have these team planes, what can we do with

Speaker 3: them during the during the off season, obviously, the Cardinals

Speaker 3: are here in Tempe focusing on the Troy twenty sixth season.

Speaker 3: The Cardinals decide as a whole that this would be

Speaker 3: an interesting and impactful, powerful and meaningful way to uh

Speaker 3: utilize what you have as the resources from an NFL team,

Speaker 3: but also put students in a position to learn and

Speaker 3: speak their minds.

Speaker 1: The impact that you're talking about, and there's a great

Speaker 1: story that you wrote on easycardinals dot com because the

Speaker 1: impact I think is now being realized and felt. Yes,

Speaker 1: it's one thing to have an idea, and this is

Speaker 1: very important to the Arizona Cardinals and owner Michael Bidwell.

Speaker 1: But it's one thing to have an idea. It's another

Speaker 1: thing to put that idea into place, execute it, and

Speaker 1: then see the benefits of it. And your article on

Speaker 1: easycardinals dot com I think was to me anyway, Maybe

Speaker 1: I'm wrong, maybe there was an earlier realization that O, wait,

Speaker 1: this is this is mattering. This is making an impact

Speaker 1: on young people's lives because Abigail Hurst, who was once

Speaker 1: upon a time a student on this trip, has now

Speaker 1: gone the extra step and now wants to be a

Speaker 1: serve this country, which I think is phenomenal.

Speaker 3: Yeah, So for to provide a little bit more background.

Speaker 3: Earlier today, Abigail walked up to owner Michael Bidwell and

Speaker 3: she and he were having a conversation and kind of

Speaker 3: standing off to the side watching it happen. And Michael

Speaker 3: then took a step back and was like, you're going

Speaker 3: to be a sailor, Like that's awesome, and then he

Speaker 3: turned to us where the cameras were and was like,

Speaker 3: she's going to the Naval Academy. And she was talking

Speaker 3: about how she was a part of that twenty twenty

Speaker 3: four class that went on the trip, so that would

Speaker 3: have been the third annual group, and she was a

Speaker 3: part of that trip, and she she knew enough about

Speaker 3: Civic she thought it would be more so a cool

Speaker 3: experience to go to Washington, d C. And take part

Speaker 3: in all the things I had previously discussed. But she

Speaker 3: was so inspired through those conversations that she had with

Speaker 3: Senator Mark Kelly and Congressman Want Sescamani, two people that

Speaker 3: are also going to be speaking to the twenty twenty

Speaker 3: sixth group that is going to be landing in Washington, DC,

Speaker 3: or might have already landed, and she said that those

Speaker 3: conversations were so inspirational that it made her want to

Speaker 3: do more. And she took part in a bunch of

Speaker 3: different civics groups throughout high school. And now she is

Speaker 3: getting set to enroll at the Naval Academy in Annapolis

Speaker 3: and we'll be doing her part and you know, for

Speaker 3: the betterment of the country to serve.

Speaker 4: So it's a beautiful thing.

Speaker 3: And I think for Michael and for the organization, you

Speaker 3: are now starting to see a lot of these students

Speaker 3: are just it goes from ninth to eleventh grade, so

Speaker 3: there's a little bit of a transition period for these

Speaker 3: students to start to get adjusted to college or to

Speaker 3: decide where they're going to end up going.

Speaker 4: In an Abbocatl's case, she's going to be going to

Speaker 4: the Navy.

Speaker 1: A lot of these students have never been to DC.

Speaker 1: A lot of these students have never been on a plane,

Speaker 1: and it's a very cool experience. Again read more about

Speaker 1: on Uneasycardinals dot com and then there's will be more

Speaker 1: documentation throughout this entire week as far as what these

Speaker 1: students are experiencing in DC.

Speaker 3: And I know people are you're a football team but

Speaker 3: it's the platform you get when you when you work

Speaker 3: for an organization and you represent a community in a

Speaker 3: state like Arizona. It's one of the youngest states state

Speaker 3: forty eight, and this is a group of people that

Speaker 3: this is what the future relies on, and people want

Speaker 3: to have comments about what this country is and what

Speaker 3: it's about. These are the people that you're gonna end

Speaker 3: up turning to before we even know it.

Speaker 1: Football team, but then how do you impact the community

Speaker 1: with civics matters, girls flag, football, charity contributions and that

Speaker 1: all factors into professional sports. It's not just the Arizona Cardinals,

Speaker 1: but it's not just you're not just a pro team.

Speaker 1: There's more to it than just what you do on

Speaker 1: a football field or a basketball court or in a

Speaker 1: baseball diamond.

Speaker 3: There are two honors that an NFL player wants to receive,

Speaker 3: and it's very tough to receive either Super Bowl Champion

Speaker 3: title and the Walter pay Man.

Speaker 4: Of the Year.

Speaker 3: It's the award that each team nominates a player to

Speaker 3: be their presentative and these are guys that have done

Speaker 3: a lot of work in the community. Last year, the

Speaker 3: Cardinals nominee was Kelvin beacham the year before that it

Speaker 3: was Trey McBride and Beach actually performed really well last

Speaker 3: year in the in the rankings, and all these players

Speaker 3: talk about how much it means to them about giving

Speaker 3: back to the community. They used this platform too to

Speaker 3: do their part. We they I was talking with with

Speaker 3: Marcus Golden today because he was at the event. It

Speaker 3: was him, it was Kareem Martin, it was John Skelton,

Speaker 3: and it was the Ring of Honor legend himself, Adrian Wilson.

Speaker 3: And to see the smiles that the students had on

Speaker 3: their faces.

Speaker 4: Was was awesome.

Speaker 3: And I remember, you know, Junk was telling me, he goes, look,

Speaker 3: you know, we brought a lot of smiles to people's

Speaker 3: to people's faces on the field for what we're able

Speaker 3: to do. But what these students are now being put

Speaker 3: in a position to do goes so much far beyond

Speaker 3: anything that we could do. So I'm excited to see

Speaker 3: a few years from now what some of these students

Speaker 3: once you start getting into hopefully double digit territory for Cardinals,

Speaker 3: Arizona Civics matters the whole trip.

Speaker 4: I'm excited to see what the what the future is

Speaker 4: gonna hold.

Speaker 1: Very cool story. Again, it's on Asycardinals dot com and

Speaker 1: Zach has been very busy because there's another article on

Speaker 1: Asycardinals dot com. Here's the headline, Marvin Harrison Junior finds

Speaker 1: greater appreciation after injury filled season. And this has been

Speaker 1: talked a lot about. We touched on it on Cardinals

Speaker 1: Underground earlier this week, but this is the main topic.

Speaker 1: It's been a big topic basically since Marvin was drafted

Speaker 1: what kind of impact can he make in the NFL?

Speaker 1: And two years in now, it's been up and down,

Speaker 1: it's been inconsistent, and you can argue, and I wouldn't

Speaker 1: argue against you, that the impact has not been significant

Speaker 1: or not nearly as significant as you would hoped or

Speaker 1: liked based off the draft capital that you invested in

Speaker 1: a wide receiver. That's fans, that's media and listening and

Speaker 1: then looking and watching Marvin speak to the media following

Speaker 1: OTA's practice on Tuesday. Certainly Marvin's not satisfied either what

Speaker 1: he has done so far in his career.

Speaker 3: So if we go back to the significant aspect of things, Marvin,

Speaker 3: I think is draws a lot of attention from defenses,

Speaker 3: especially when they're preparing for him, and I think that

Speaker 3: that Marvin's presence on the field has opened up the

Speaker 3: door for Trey McBride to a lot of incredible things.

Speaker 3: But you don't draft Marvin fourth overall to be a decoy.

Speaker 3: And that's a disrespect to Marvin if that's all that

Speaker 3: he would be used for, because he's not going to

Speaker 3: go down as one of the greatest wide receivers that

Speaker 3: college football has ever seen to become a decoy in

Speaker 3: the NFL. I think Marvin knows that there's a lot

Speaker 3: left in the tank, and I think that's what's frustrating

Speaker 3: for him is because like he said, and I'm pretty

Speaker 3: sure it was the last quote I used in my article,

Speaker 3: was that he said, if I'm on the field and

Speaker 3: I'm healthy, like everything's gonna get figured out for itself.

Speaker 3: And I think that's been the tough part for Marvin

Speaker 3: is finding that consistency to stay on the field a

Speaker 3: number one and then number two to consistently get the

Speaker 3: football going his way. I mean, you've read off the

Speaker 3: stat plenty of times about how how many games he's

Speaker 3: played where he's got fewer than fifty yards and the

Speaker 3: amount of receptions he's had. It's not what you expect

Speaker 3: from a wide receiver number one to get those that

Speaker 3: low of a total. But I think soon enough it

Speaker 3: can the switch can flip for him, and I'm not

Speaker 3: really sure how much of it needs to be flipped

Speaker 3: from Marvin and Marvin's head versus the collective offense. And

Speaker 3: I think that's what Michael Floor's scheme is going to

Speaker 3: really tell us very early on, because there are we

Speaker 3: know that thirteen personnel is going to be a focal

Speaker 3: point in this offense, which means you're gonna have one

Speaker 3: wide out there. Is that going to be Marvin? Is

Speaker 3: that going to be Michael Wilson? What is that going

Speaker 3: to end up looking like? I'm obviously not too sure

Speaker 3: right now, but I think that there can be an opportunity.

Speaker 4: For Marvin to take that step.

Speaker 3: But like you said, there, like I agree with him,

Speaker 3: Like I wrote about an article, Marvin's not happy, and

Speaker 3: I think that's fair. He talked about the injuries a lot,

Speaker 3: and I asked him if there is a fire that

Speaker 3: could be lit within him, knowing that he had to

Speaker 3: watch the game from the sidelines, and he said to me,

Speaker 3: first off, he's never missed any time in his career,

Speaker 3: so that's been a challenge for him. But he also said,

Speaker 3: like does a light a fire, No, But does it

Speaker 3: give me a greater appreciation for the game and for

Speaker 3: wanting to be out there with my teammates at one

Speaker 3: hundred percent health and trying to help them win. Yeah,

Speaker 3: that it definitely does give me a greater appreciation.

Speaker 1: No one's going to have more of an expectation on

Speaker 1: what Marvin Harrison Junior can do than Marvin Harrison Junior himself.

Speaker 1: And as much as we think or expect him to

Speaker 1: do X, Y and Z, Marvin has that and then some.

Speaker 4: And that's just.

Speaker 1: How one who he is as a person, probably most

Speaker 1: likely a product of how he was raised, having a

Speaker 1: Hall of Fame wide receiver as a father. And it's cliche,

Speaker 1: but it's true. Your best ability is availability. And yes,

Speaker 1: Marvin played all seventeen games as a rookie. Was he

Speaker 1: healthy for all seventeen He was not. Last season he

Speaker 1: played twelve games, started ten of them. And what I

Speaker 1: found interesting, there are injuries that you can control, and

Speaker 1: then you can't control. You can't control appendicitis. That's just unfortunate.

Speaker 1: And that's the word Marvin used how you take care

Speaker 1: of your body to make sure you're available each and

Speaker 1: every week. That is controllable. And I know it did

Speaker 1: raise some eyebrows when Marvin mentioned that there were some

Speaker 1: still some things ongoing with his feet, whether it was

Speaker 1: his heel or his foots that hasn't impacted him on

Speaker 1: the practice field. You're not going one hundred percent yet,

Speaker 1: and we'll get better by the time the regular season begins.

Speaker 1: But I took it as when I heard him say ongoing,

Speaker 1: meaning this is what I need to do now based

Speaker 1: off what has happened to me in order to be

Speaker 1: as healthy as I can be to be available for

Speaker 1: my team and teammates on game day. Not that he's

Speaker 1: still rehabbing. I didn't. I didn't take it like that,

Speaker 1: and maybe I'm wrong. I just took it as okay,

Speaker 1: Like personally, I've got a back issue, all right, So

Speaker 1: now I got to take care of myself every day

Speaker 1: to make sure that back issue doesn't become something worse.

Speaker 3: So what are you working on with your back issue?

Speaker 1: I stretch every morning for about thirty to forty five minutes.

Speaker 1: That's what I have to do in order to feel good.

Speaker 4: For that day.

Speaker 1: That's just how that's where I'm won, where I'm at

Speaker 1: in life, and to peel the curtain back a little

Speaker 1: bit further here for everyone, what's happened in my life? Wow,

Speaker 1: no wonder you walk into the office with such a

Speaker 1: pep in your staff every day. Forty five minutes of

Speaker 1: stretching is really going to bring the energy. And everyone

Speaker 1: wonders why I'm up at four am every day?

Speaker 3: That is very fair an op.

Speaker 1: Cody Fincher from left Field together five forty five, I

Speaker 1: applaud you for that, but I've already been up for

Speaker 1: almost two hour already, or saying why are you sleeping

Speaker 1: in at five forty five? Little does he know seven

Speaker 1: to fifteen is when it typically is. But look, this

Speaker 1: is not about me. But that's that's where how I

Speaker 1: heard him say that is I can I put myself

Speaker 1: in his position? Okay, I'm not an athlete, but yeah,

Speaker 1: it's the ongoing. It's the daily maintenance. It's no different

Speaker 1: than how you take care of your vehicle, your your house,

Speaker 1: your apartment, whatever it is. What do you have to

Speaker 1: do day to day or month to month to make

Speaker 1: sure that things are kept well?

Speaker 3: And when you're a sports car like Maserati, Marv, you

Speaker 3: have to maintain it a lot more. And the way

Speaker 3: I looked at it too, is this is the time

Speaker 3: of year where you were not going to put yourself

Speaker 3: in a field if you can't be out on the field,

Speaker 3: And that was something that Marvin was saying. You were saying, like,

Speaker 3: I could practice and do everything we need to do

Speaker 3: right now, and I'm sure if it was a game week,

Speaker 3: Marvin would probably be out there right now if he

Speaker 3: if he felt capable enough to doing it. So when

Speaker 3: I look at him talking about the ongoing process of

Speaker 3: the recovery, yeah, for a lot of these players, Josh

Speaker 3: Sweat is a guy that comes to mind. And we'll

Speaker 3: talk a little bit more about Josh in a bit,

Speaker 3: but he is somebody that's gone through a knee injury

Speaker 3: dating back to his time in high school.

Speaker 4: He almost had his leg.

Speaker 3: Amputated, and every time during the offseason he's working on

Speaker 3: that knee and working on everything else in general. Because

Speaker 3: of that, he would probably also say it's an ongoing

Speaker 3: process of how everything is to go back though to

Speaker 3: something you said about the way that Marvin was raised

Speaker 3: and the pressure and sort of how he views the

Speaker 3: ups and downs and takes this roller coaster ride that

Speaker 3: he does. I think, obviously there's a lot of pressure

Speaker 3: and there's something that I might be overstepping here, So

Speaker 3: I hope not, and if I am, clock me on it.

Speaker 3: But Marvin Harrison Junior is the son of Marvin Harrison Senior.

Speaker 3: There's a lot of pressure.

Speaker 4: There that's accurate.

Speaker 3: But he is also the big brother to Jet Harrison,

Speaker 3: who is one of the top players in high school

Speaker 3: football right now.

Speaker 1: And if you ask Marvin Harrison Junior, yeah, he believes

Speaker 1: his younger brother is better at least where he is

Speaker 1: right now than where Marvin was at that point, and

Speaker 1: there's a feeling that he, potentially the youngest Harrison, could

Speaker 1: be better than all of course.

Speaker 3: And so the way I look at this is there's

Speaker 3: a lot of pressure for Marvin Harrison Junior to live

Speaker 3: up to his father's name, but there's also a lot

Speaker 3: of pressure to create that sort of same comparison with

Speaker 3: his younger brother, because the way college football is, who

Speaker 3: knows that they'll be there three years or four years

Speaker 3: or one year or everything like that with all these

Speaker 3: different rule changes. But once Jet goes to the NCAA

Speaker 3: and starts playing in that category of then taking that

Speaker 3: next level. You don't want Marvin, I'm sure feels a

Speaker 3: little bit of the pressure to be like, hey, we

Speaker 3: want Jet's already gonna be better than Marvin. Like we

Speaker 3: want Marvin. We don't see that the gap is as

Speaker 3: big as it should be, like the gap between a

Speaker 3: son and a Hall of Fame caliber father. So I

Speaker 3: think that there's a lot of pressure for Marvin to

Speaker 3: create that gap to be closer to his father, but

Speaker 3: also to put to raise the bar for his younger

Speaker 3: brother to reach that at some point. There's a lot

Speaker 3: of pressure that these guys feel. On a human level.

Speaker 3: Marvin still what twenty four to twenty five years old.

Speaker 3: It's not normal for people at this age in today's

Speaker 3: society to be at this sort of pressure. But it's

Speaker 3: how he's grown up, and it's the situation he has

Speaker 3: put himself in. And I do think because of how

Speaker 3: he has responded to pressure at different points throughout his career,

Speaker 3: I do believe Marve will get on the other side

Speaker 3: of it.

Speaker 1: You mentioned Marvin's father. I went back and looked former

Speaker 1: first round pick Marvin Senior. His first one thousand yard

Speaker 1: season was year four.

Speaker 3: So he was at year three was in the eight

Speaker 3: hundred range, right.

Speaker 1: Yeah, so he was good like Marvin Harrison Senior has

Speaker 1: been good. Senior didn't become great until year four and

Speaker 1: then he was consistently great. So if you're looking for

Speaker 1: a comparison, there's that potential, and then the comparison that

Speaker 1: Mike Lafor has mentioned with Marvin Harrison Junior is DeVante Adams. Now,

Speaker 1: Adams was a second round pick, but for him year three,

Speaker 1: he nearly had one thousand receiving yards, but he had

Speaker 1: twelve touchdowns. So we all get wrapped up in numbers.

Speaker 1: The one thousand mark is big. Double digit touchdowns is big.

Speaker 4: For me.

Speaker 1: It's when you have a Trey McBride and a Michael

Speaker 1: Wilson and Jeremiah Love hopefully, how do you spread the

Speaker 1: wealth around? It's what kind of an impact are you making.

Speaker 1: Maybe it's not ten catches four one hundred yards, but

Speaker 1: it's three catches for ninety yards, but two touchdowns. To me,

Speaker 1: that's a bigger impact than ten and one hundred as

Speaker 1: far as an entire season. So I think you're looking

Speaker 1: for Marvin to make a bigger impact week to week

Speaker 1: for an entire season, because he's shown flashes. That's all

Speaker 1: we've seen. There's the first half against the Los Angeles

Speaker 1: Rams his rookie year, and all of a sudden, it's like, okay, well,

Speaker 1: can you do that for an entire game? Can you

Speaker 1: do that for a four game stretch or five times

Speaker 1: in seven games? The consistency has just not been there,

Speaker 1: and when you are selected that high, that's the expectation

Speaker 1: that people have.

Speaker 3: I think the closest thing we've seen to that back

Speaker 3: to back consistency, and I wrote it in my article,

Speaker 3: was that week four, that second half of the game

Speaker 3: against the Seattle Seahawks, after he had that drop which

Speaker 3: turned into the interception, and then in the second half

Speaker 3: he came back had that big time touchdown against Devin

Speaker 3: Witherspoon in the back of the end zone during the

Speaker 3: Rivalries game. And then the following week against Tennessee, he

Speaker 3: starts off the game with a forty eight yard touch

Speaker 3: or he got down at the one yard line, or

Speaker 3: it might have been a touchdown. I don't fully recall,

Speaker 3: but he lost two defenders and he jumped up and

Speaker 3: started shouting into the air, and I'm pretty sure he

Speaker 3: ended that two game stretch with ten receptions for one

Speaker 3: hundred and sixty five yards. That's what you want to see,

Speaker 3: and that's what you should be used to see him

Speaker 3: accustom seeing. When you also know that at that same time,

Speaker 3: Trey McBride is getting his fair shaff touches and you're

Speaker 3: going to have a running back at that point of

Speaker 3: the year, it was you know, you still had Trey

Speaker 3: Benson in Week four against Seattle, so you wanted to

Speaker 3: have enough of that balance. I think that's what you

Speaker 3: should be more so used to seeing out of Marvin

Speaker 3: Harrison Junior. And those stats all start to add up,

Speaker 3: but at the end of the day, it's going to

Speaker 3: be a matter of what puts points on the scoreboard,

Speaker 3: because that's how you are judged. And in Marvin, especially

Speaker 3: in the fantasy football universe, which a lot of people

Speaker 3: seem to care about that a lot more than they

Speaker 3: probably should. You want to feed the ball to Marvin

Speaker 3: and and those we talked about the comparison with DeVante Adams.

Speaker 3: So much of so many of DeVante's touchdowns came from

Speaker 3: backshoulder fades in the end zone, and that's how his

Speaker 3: connection with Aaron Rodgers was formed. There was that trust

Speaker 3: in goal line situations, go to go situations, who are

Speaker 3: you throwing the football to and those gotta have it moments?

Speaker 3: It was DeVante Adams and I think that's what you

Speaker 3: could have in Marvin Harrison Junior as well.

Speaker 1: And when you talk about DeVante Adams with the Los

Speaker 1: Angeles Rams when Mike lafort was there, it wasn't so

Speaker 1: much the yards but the targets inside the red zone,

Speaker 1: the number of touchdowns, how many two yard touchdown catches

Speaker 1: he would have, and leading the league in touchdowns with

Speaker 1: fifteen plus I think it was eighteen or nineteen and

Speaker 1: didn't have the yardage, but had the impact because he

Speaker 1: was scoring points. And the question was asked to Lafloor about, Okay,

Speaker 1: is Marvin Harrison Junior the X receiver or is he

Speaker 1: getta moved around? And I thought his excell explanation was

Speaker 1: great because typically you say X receiver, that's the number

Speaker 1: one wide receiver and yes, most teams, that is for

Speaker 1: the Arizona Cardinals. And what if the Floor was talking about,

Speaker 1: it's more what kind of a receiver are you? The

Speaker 1: body type? Are you tall? Are you a lanky? That's

Speaker 1: the X receiver More of the compact, bigger built receivers

Speaker 1: like a Michael Wilson, Puka Nakua more of the why

Speaker 1: sometimes inside, but you were going to see all of

Speaker 1: these wide receivers that the Cardinals have moved around, maybe

Speaker 1: more so than we've ever seen, because that's what La

Speaker 1: Floor believes in. Because you don't want to send guys

Speaker 1: out and be that DeAndre Hopkins that one season with

Speaker 1: the Arizona Cars where he consistently was the X on

Speaker 1: the left side and only ran on the left side

Speaker 1: for a DeAndre Hopkins. Sure that might work, but to

Speaker 1: be more consistent and be able to move the ball

Speaker 1: up and down the field on a consistent basis, you

Speaker 1: got to be a little bit have some more variety

Speaker 1: and scheme with it to kind of throw the defense off.

Speaker 3: And that's how Marvin made an for himself in college

Speaker 3: because he was always kept in motion. He was sometimes brought. Yeah,

Speaker 3: he was going to be out wide a ton. That's

Speaker 3: what happens when you have a six foot three, two

Speaker 3: hundred eighteen pound frame, light like Marvin does. So he's

Speaker 3: going to be kept out wide a good amount of

Speaker 3: the time. But how do you have that, As Gardner mentioned,

Speaker 3: described an offensive scheme that is simple but has the

Speaker 3: illusion of being complex. It's because you have the willingness

Speaker 3: and the capability of moving Marvin closer to the line

Speaker 3: of scrimmage, closer to the offensive line, possibly putting him

Speaker 3: in that slot role, possibly pushing out Michael Wilson a

Speaker 3: handful of different times make him look like the X

Speaker 3: receiver because of the amount of motions that this offense

Speaker 3: is going to experience, and see, Marvin's going to be

Speaker 3: the X, Y, the Z and Mike was even talking

Speaker 3: about and being in the A and the B and

Speaker 3: keeping some of the stuff with the defense and forcing

Speaker 3: them to be on their toes a little bit more

Speaker 3: because you're gonna have that safety coming down into the

Speaker 3: box and who's going to be the one responsible for him, Well,

Speaker 3: that safety's going to have no idea now because of

Speaker 3: the differences in motion. That is what I think you

Speaker 3: need from from Marvin and from Michael Wilson, and what

Speaker 3: you're going to also get from Kendrick Bourn a little

Speaker 3: bit is that versatility of moving them all along the

Speaker 3: offensive line that is going to create that illusion that

Speaker 3: who is the number one target here? Who is the

Speaker 3: ex It's going to be one of those things that

Speaker 3: I think for a Cardinals fans and for football fans,

Speaker 3: and I'm sure for opposing defenses as well, they're going

Speaker 3: to watch the first few weeks of the season and

Speaker 3: be like, what is this Cardinals offense look like? Because

Speaker 3: I don't think we've seen anything like it. A lot

Speaker 3: of people are going to start comparing it to what

Speaker 3: Shanahan does with the forty nine ers, and how they're

Speaker 3: going to compare it to La Flora's time with the

Speaker 3: Rams versus how they look now. There's gonna be a

Speaker 3: lot of different comparisons. But Michael Floor has talked about it.

Speaker 3: He said, this is going to be a Cardinals offense

Speaker 3: and it's going to be unique to a Cardinals offense.

Speaker 1: If Marvin's able to stay hell and that I think

Speaker 1: is the number one goal, because, as you mentioned in

Speaker 1: that post practice session with reporters, it was more talking

Speaker 1: about the health, the injuries, the games missed, as opposed

Speaker 1: to what I potentially could be as a receiver in

Speaker 1: this offense. The mindset of Marvin is, Okay, I need

Speaker 1: to I would love to be able to, and I'm

Speaker 1: just guessing here. Fast forward to Week one, like, this

Speaker 1: is the work that I have to be put in.

Speaker 1: But I need to get to week one so I

Speaker 1: can show everyone what I'm capable of doing. We've seen it,

Speaker 1: just need to see a little bit more now. I

Speaker 1: don't know if you saw this. Sports Illustrated's Connor Orr

Speaker 1: familiar with his work.

Speaker 4: I am Syracuse guy.

Speaker 1: By the way, there you go, congratulations hop if you

Speaker 1: feel real good about yourself. I always do when I

Speaker 1: can talk about Syracuse. I was waiting for uh no, nothing.

Speaker 4: I'm not going.

Speaker 3: I got rejected from there.

Speaker 1: And look we're in the same place we are. See, yeah,

Speaker 1: we are just Syracuse. Did dreams of a high school

Speaker 1: or nothing?

Speaker 4: What's nil?

Speaker 1: Different roads but same destination. That's all that matters, as

Speaker 1: long as we get across to the end zone and

Speaker 1: put points on the scoreboard. Connor Orr wrote one hundred

Speaker 1: bold predictions for twenty twenty six hundred, one hundred. Karrod,

Speaker 1: I guess what his number one was.

Speaker 3: The Seahawks or that the Rams are going to win.

Speaker 4: The Super Bowl.

Speaker 1: Well this was before the Miles Garrot, right, So no,

Speaker 1: that's not but it is Super Bowl related.

Speaker 3: And this is the little Bills are going to win

Speaker 3: the Super This is for this is.

Speaker 1: A Texans beat Seahawks and the Super Bowl.

Speaker 4: So that that's bold, all right.

Speaker 1: So that's that's kind of what and then there's some

Speaker 1: fun in there. And but this was number eighty six.

Speaker 1: The light will come on from Marvin Harrison Junior. And

Speaker 1: this is what Connor wrote talked about.

Speaker 4: In a May to eighty eight.

Speaker 1: I see what you did there. He wrote that one

Speaker 1: of Nathaniel Hackett's strengths as a coach has been quote

Speaker 1: relaying concepts and helping players find a way to understand

Speaker 1: the game more fluently. And then he added he believes

Speaker 1: Marvin will say career eyes in receptions, yards and catch percentage.

Speaker 1: So yeah, we're talking a lot about michae Lefloor as

Speaker 1: the play caller, but don't forget the offensive coordinator is

Speaker 1: Nathaniel Hackett, who will probably be a little bit more

Speaker 1: hands on during the week as far as with the

Speaker 1: offensive players and then working with the coaching staff to

Speaker 1: come up with a game plan. But I found that

Speaker 1: interesting that it was Nathaniel Hackett that Connor Orr brought

Speaker 1: up and not so much Michael Floor.

Speaker 3: Well, probably for one of a few reasons. One Nathaniel

Speaker 3: Hackett has former head coaching experience, so he knows how

Speaker 3: to relate in that sense. Number two, he also worked

Speaker 3: very closely with DeVante Adams, so that is something that

Speaker 3: has also happened there. And number three, Michael Floor is

Speaker 3: a head coach of the Arizona Cardinals because of his

Speaker 3: ability to install Sean mcvay's scheme and kind of be

Speaker 3: that offensive head coach when Sean McVay needs to be

Speaker 3: the head coach for the entire team, because he's talked

Speaker 3: about it before that on when they're doing their installs,

Speaker 3: it was Lafleur that was doing the installs more than

Speaker 3: McVeigh was doing the installs during the season because of

Speaker 3: all the different things that a head coach has to do.

Speaker 3: So the role of an offensive coordinator, even though that

Speaker 3: they are not going to be the one calling the

Speaker 3: shots come game days, it's still an important one. And

Speaker 3: I think Nathaniel Hackett has probably learned and we'll speak

Speaker 3: to him later in the week when the coordinators are

Speaker 3: made available to the media, and he probably has learned

Speaker 3: a thing or two about what it's like to actually

Speaker 3: install plays when you're sitting in that seat as opposed

Speaker 3: to the head coach's seat, so hopefully it does relate

Speaker 3: to it. And Nathaniel Hackett too, and Craig you could

Speaker 3: also correct me if I'm wrong here. He's been one

Speaker 3: of the main coaches that all the guys on the

Speaker 3: offensive side of the ball have talked about about just

Speaker 3: their their spark and the energy that they have, but

Speaker 3: they're also their relatability and how he has been hands

Speaker 3: on with absolutely everything.

Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been fun to watch when we have been

Speaker 1: out on the football field, and then it's not so

Speaker 1: much what we see but what we hear from the

Speaker 1: players talking about what this potential, what this offense potentially

Speaker 1: could look like. So again, we're not going to really know.

Speaker 1: Might get more of a glimpse come training camp, in

Speaker 1: the open practices, maybe a little bit more in the preseason,

Speaker 1: but really it's going to be Week one in Los

Speaker 1: Angeles against the Chargers in which we'll kind of really

Speaker 1: get a look at what this Cardinals offense might be

Speaker 1: able to do for an entire season. Just get a

Speaker 1: taste of it here so far in the offseason. You

Speaker 1: brought it up earlier here on Cardinals Cover two. It

Speaker 1: is the news of the day, if you will and

Speaker 1: I don't know why it was today, but it was

Speaker 1: today for whatever reason. NFL Networks and now ESPN's Ian

Speaker 1: Rapaport posted this on social media. This has gained some

Speaker 1: steam on social media. So just to provide some clarity,

Speaker 1: Cardinals Edge rusher Josh, what is not being traded? Not

Speaker 1: to the packers or anywhere? Carry on end of tweets

Speaker 1: set and it got retweeted by pretty much everyone locally

Speaker 1: and a handful of people nationally. So I don't know

Speaker 1: if this is going to put to bed all of

Speaker 1: the discussion about Josh Wetz and how he feels where

Speaker 1: he's been, but this much is certain. And we talked

Speaker 1: about this earlier in the week and on previous Cardinal

Speaker 1: Cover two episodes. This is nothing new that Josh Wet

Speaker 1: is not here.

Speaker 3: Nope, and uh, I'll give credit to a fan account

Speaker 3: that is on that is on x They they found

Speaker 3: a conversation that joshwed had with a fan in his

Speaker 3: own comment section where the fan commented to him to

Speaker 3: the quote was the man up and show up to

Speaker 3: OTA's and Josh, after saying what are you talking about,

Speaker 3: he said, I do my own training every off season.

Speaker 3: This is nothing new. Dot dot dot. This is nothing new,

Speaker 3: and it's exactly like you what you and I have

Speaker 3: talked about on multiple different shows on multiple different platforms.

Speaker 3: Josh Sweat, we anticipate to be reporting when mandatory mini

Speaker 3: camp begins next week. And there's so much talk about

Speaker 3: him potentially asking for a trade and him being traded.

Speaker 3: And you know some fan accounts that you know work

Speaker 3: for outlets, but they have the teams you know, hype

Speaker 3: slogan in their bio, which doesn't really give that credibility

Speaker 3: to them. But that's neither here or there are tweeting

Speaker 3: out that that is that this is what their sources

Speaker 3: are hearing. Josh Wewat's gonna be going to Green Bay

Speaker 3: and stuff of that nature, and that has been dispelled

Speaker 3: time and time again. So once again, I do expect,

Speaker 3: at least for this coming week, that Josh Sweat is

Speaker 3: going to come back to Arizona, or at least to

Speaker 3: mandatory camp and get ready to go to work.

Speaker 1: Look, every coach would like every player to be a

Speaker 1: part of the offseason, even during the voluntary session.

Speaker 4: Because then they get to have what the forty nine

Speaker 4: ers just.

Speaker 1: Did and have their mandatory mini camp. Canceled because Kyle

Speaker 1: Shanahan noted the one participation. But for some players, and

Speaker 1: there's a handful of players out there, more than a handful,

Speaker 1: they're offseason. They have their own routine, whether that's in

Speaker 1: the same state as their team or out of state,

Speaker 1: maybe closer to family. And even in Philadelphia when Josh

Speaker 1: what was with the Eagles, he was not a part

Speaker 1: of OTAs and it's carried over here with the Arizona Cardinals.

Speaker 1: It's a good conversation to have, if you will, as

Speaker 1: far as who his and who is not here. But

Speaker 1: for me, it doesn't morph into story. It goes from

Speaker 1: conversation to story. If not all of a sudden a

Speaker 1: player is absent from mandatory mini camp, well, it's situations

Speaker 1: like Paris Johnson Junior was not at practice, not this past.

Speaker 4: Week, but the week before that.

Speaker 3: If that was for a reason that was not our

Speaker 3: excused by the head coach, that becomes a story where

Speaker 3: is your franchise left tackle? But Michael Floor has said

Speaker 3: he he has been kept in the loop and he

Speaker 3: knows where everybody is and everybody's status and all things

Speaker 3: of that nature. And because of that, there really isn't

Speaker 3: a cause for concern when it comes to at least

Speaker 3: a guy like Josh Sweat. The Kobe Brissett situation is

Speaker 3: going to there's going to be a light on it

Speaker 3: next week, as there should be, because then it's mandatory.

Speaker 3: And I remember we were talking about it on Cardinals

Speaker 3: Underground a few weeks ago where I said, is it's

Speaker 3: kind of a non story.

Speaker 4: It's going to become a story.

Speaker 3: If he's not there. But at least right now, it's

Speaker 3: still voluntary, so I'm not really going to be making

Speaker 3: too much out of it. And I think next week

Speaker 3: when we have when we when we turn these mics

Speaker 3: back on, we could have a very different conversation. But

Speaker 3: I don't expect to. I expect to see the guys

Speaker 3: all back out there.

Speaker 1: Speaking of guys out on the football field that we

Speaker 1: have seen and it's good to see, and that is

Speaker 1: Sean Murphy Bunting, who missed all of last season, didn't

Speaker 1: even participate in any of the off season programs because

Speaker 1: he hurt his knee. Well in advance of.

Speaker 4: All of that.

Speaker 1: But you we talk about Asycardinals dot Com and the

Speaker 1: number of basically does Darren Urban write anymore for the website?

Speaker 1: At least this week.

Speaker 4: He does.

Speaker 1: Okay, he does.

Speaker 3: He was going to have an incredible story hopefully coming

Speaker 3: out in the next week or sometime this week, rather

Speaker 3: about Michael Wilson, And I'm gonna leave it at that.

Speaker 4: So that is going to be one that I think

Speaker 4: the Bird Gang should should check out.

Speaker 1: But yeah, if we want to, if we want to

Speaker 1: say though that he doesn't, and I take credit for it,

Speaker 1: I'll take credit for it because I'm just referencing all

Speaker 1: of your work. Yeah, because we could argue that this

Speaker 1: is the only week that you work, and then what

Speaker 1: are you doing the other fifty one weeks? Well, right

Speaker 1: on you. We think this is a lot this week.

Speaker 1: Get ready for next week. Sean Murphy Bunton, you'd have

Speaker 1: had you had a chance to speak with him. And

Speaker 1: I'm anxious to read this article because it is going

Speaker 1: to be posted later this week. But kind of on

Speaker 1: what Sean dealt with and his recovery and then now,

Speaker 1: as we've seen during OTAs during the open portion, a

Speaker 1: potential new position. It's a previous position that Sean played

Speaker 1: in that is slot corner, but a different role than

Speaker 1: when he was first brought here to Arizona.

Speaker 4: Yeah.

Speaker 3: So in this article that will go out hopefully on

Speaker 3: Friday on Azycardinals dot Com, I will break down the

Speaker 3: stats from Seann Murphy Bunting's first three seasons playing as

Speaker 3: a slot nickel cornerback during his time in Tampa Bay.

Speaker 3: All those numbers will be credited towards True Media, and

Speaker 3: then his stats when he's an outside cornerback, which during

Speaker 3: his one season in Tennessee and the one season he

Speaker 3: was active for the Arizona Cardinals he was an outside cornerback.

Speaker 3: I think in total he played maybe no more than

Speaker 3: ten total snaps in the slot nickel position during those

Speaker 3: two seasons as an active player, after playing majority of

Speaker 3: his time as a slot cornerback during his time in Tampa,

Speaker 3: where he did end up winning.

Speaker 4: A Super Bowl.

Speaker 3: So we will talk about that and how him sliding

Speaker 3: into that nickel spot will be different than what we

Speaker 3: might have seen from Garrett Williams in that nickel spot.

Speaker 3: And also, for the first time you alluded to it,

Speaker 3: he had a knee injury. I think there's been a

Speaker 3: lot of speculation of what this knee injury is, how

Speaker 3: did it occur, all these different things. I will touch

Speaker 3: up on it and reveal what it was and when

Speaker 3: he had told me on the record on in Friday's article.

Speaker 1: Looking forward to that coming up on Azcardinals dot Com.

Speaker 1: Good tease. Thanks.

Speaker 3: I hope people check it out because I think last

Speaker 3: year there was a lot of talk about the outside

Speaker 3: before Shau Murphy Bunting's injury, before it became announced that

Speaker 3: he was going to be put on the NFI list.

Speaker 4: Is what the list is that he was put on.

Speaker 3: There was a lot of talk about him competing for

Speaker 3: a spot on the roster because you had such a

Speaker 3: loaded outside cornerbacks room with Will Johnson, Axe Mountain, Dunzel, Burke,

Speaker 3: Kee Trow Clark, Starling Thomas was healthy at that point,

Speaker 3: so there was a lot of talk about where does

Speaker 3: Shaw Murphy Bunting even fit in. Shaw Murphy Bunting will

Speaker 3: now be.

Speaker 4: On this roster.

Speaker 3: I could almost guarantee put a lock on it, especially

Speaker 3: with Garret Williams still recovering from his achilles injury. I

Speaker 3: would be very surprised that if there was a world

Speaker 3: where Shaw Murphy Bunting is not on this team, because

Speaker 3: he so far through camp has looked really solid in

Speaker 3: that spot. He looks to be going back to his ways.

Speaker 3: In to quote him as he ended my conversation with me,

Speaker 3: he goes, you know, you're right, I did have some

Speaker 3: pretty good years at Nickel, and you could see that

Speaker 3: he was reliving it a little bit.

Speaker 4: So you have to hope that that.

Speaker 3: Success that helped propel the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to the

Speaker 3: Super Bowl can trickle down to Tempe, Arizona.

Speaker 1: So that article coming up later this week on Easycardinals

Speaker 1: dot Com. The last topic here before we allow Zach

Speaker 1: to get some rests for all the hard work that

Speaker 1: he has done this week and continues to do throughout

Speaker 1: his entire was on a Cardinal's career. Is this really

Speaker 1: Is this really possible? Is Aaron Donald coming out of retirements?

Speaker 4: Is this a thing?

Speaker 1: Or is this just social media driven and Aaron maybe

Speaker 1: having a little fun to at not everyone's expense, but

Speaker 1: just kind of stoking the fires a little bit. And

Speaker 1: we're not going to see ninety nine back in rams colors.

Speaker 3: So I think if this trade happened about a month ago,

Speaker 3: I would say he's there by training camp. I think

Speaker 3: we're about to reach that time of the year where

Speaker 3: football is about to go to dark mode in about

Speaker 3: two to three weeks, and in Aaron Donald's case, he

Speaker 3: might turn on social media or see what's kind of

Speaker 3: going on and players are now going to be going

Speaker 3: back on vacation. He gets to be reminded of what

Speaker 3: retirement is truly, Like he said to Jordan Schultzen, to

Speaker 3: Pat McAfee and a handful of others that had texted him.

Speaker 3: I saw other people say that they reached out.

Speaker 1: And they did not get responses, so they were a

Speaker 1: little bit butt heard over that how do you rank

Speaker 1: on Aaron Donald's contact list?

Speaker 4: Exactly?

Speaker 1: Somebody I think it was Zach Gel posted and said,

Speaker 1: like I gave him a call. He did not pick up,

Speaker 1: but he was saying that he's going to he's flirting

Speaker 1: with the idea. Was the direct quote that he gave

Speaker 1: to Jordan Schultz, and he said, if he could light

Speaker 1: that fire back and see it, then it's a real possibility. Clearly,

Speaker 1: it's something that is being discussed in the RAMS facility

Speaker 1: because both Sean McVay and less Needs seemed that this

Speaker 1: was something that they might have been thinking about as

Speaker 1: well as a possibility. Aaron Donald's still only thirty five,

Speaker 1: He's still in a fantastic shape, and he works out

Speaker 1: like he's getting ready for a training camp. But it's

Speaker 1: very different when you think about working out with the

Speaker 1: gym equipment and trying to get your body in shape

Speaker 1: versus competing against an offensive lineman in the NFL and

Speaker 1: getting banged up and bruised week in and week out.

Speaker 1: So is it a possibility?

Speaker 4: Sure?

Speaker 3: I think it'd be more realistic if this happen in

Speaker 3: the week that camp started and all you see is

Speaker 3: clips of people working out. But then again, Aaron Donald

Speaker 3: is a freak, so nothing would surprise me.

Speaker 1: Donald's wife did seem to throw some cold water on

Speaker 1: the suggestion that her husband come out of retirements on

Speaker 1: her own social media post, so there is that as well.

Speaker 1: Aaron Donald retired in twenty twenty three, he was still

Speaker 1: under contractor on the RAMS books and twenty four and

Speaker 1: twenty five, so he is officially a free agent, able

Speaker 1: to sign if he so choose to, with any team.

Speaker 1: Can you imagine Aaron Donald coming out of retirement and

Speaker 1: signing for the VET minimum to join the Rams in

Speaker 1: week four or week five or whatever.

Speaker 3: Can you imagine six years ago saying that in twenty

Speaker 3: twenty six Aaron Donald and Kyler Murray are playing on

Speaker 3: the VET minimum.

Speaker 1: Well, I wasn't sure you're gonna make that connection. I

Speaker 1: was thinking maybe the whole the Garrett Williams, Garret Williams,

Speaker 1: Miles Garrett.

Speaker 4: On one end, I might have said.

Speaker 1: Garrett, no, no, no, no, no, no, might I know you're talking

Speaker 1: about Kyler Murray. I wasn't making that. I was saying,

Speaker 1: I'm instead of saying Miles Garta said Garrett, but Miles

Speaker 1: Garrett and Aaron Donald on the same defense. I wasn't

Speaker 1: you know that connection. You made the connection that that

Speaker 1: both those players, and I believe it was Kyler who

Speaker 1: was the first to wish Aaron Donald well was once

Speaker 1: he retire, thank god, But they would both be on

Speaker 1: the VET minimum in twenty twenty six. Yeah, that I

Speaker 1: would not have believed that at all.

Speaker 4: Well, that's crazy.

Speaker 1: And at the same time, Russell Wilson announced his retirement. Yeah,

Speaker 1: I let that that. That's a conversation for another day.

Speaker 1: We'll see how long that lasts.

Speaker 4: That's fair.

Speaker 1: And apparently retirements now they can be over in a

Speaker 1: year or three years.

Speaker 4: Or in a few months.

Speaker 1: Before you could potentially become a member of the of

Speaker 1: the Hall of Fame class. In the case of Philip Rivers,

Speaker 1: that's true. What what does retirement look like these days?

Speaker 3: I wonder how much him returning to the league to

Speaker 3: play the four or five games that he did for

Speaker 3: the Colts, how much that changed a perception for a

Speaker 3: lot of retired players to be.

Speaker 4: Like, maybe I can actually do this.

Speaker 1: Can you get off the couch? Feel good?

Speaker 4: Justin Pugh, straight off the couch.

Speaker 1: That's such a such a good one from Justin.

Speaker 4: I miss Justin Pugh.

Speaker 1: Good guy, Pa, guy, there you go.

Speaker 4: See here we go. I got you smiling.

Speaker 3: Yeah, don't tell you we went to college.

Speaker 1: I'll just let everyone else google that and then they

Speaker 1: can figure it out.

Speaker 4: I'm sure.

Speaker 1: Good work, good work, Thank you today, Good work this

Speaker 1: week and again. The Sean Murphy Bunting story coming up

Speaker 1: later this week on Easycardinals dot com.

Speaker 3: Yeah, if you want to see all the latest, I

Speaker 3: had a snapcount story feature John Gruden on it. That

Speaker 3: was something we teased a few weeks ago. Yes, so

Speaker 3: give that a look. It talks about Carson Beck and

Speaker 3: developing that snapcount. Also, some of the first comments we

Speaker 3: had heard from quarterback coach Matt shop. Of course, we'll

Speaker 3: have the article from Civic Matters that's already online, Marvin

Speaker 3: talking about his greater appreciation after an injury felt season,

Speaker 3: and then seamer if you bumped in this.

Speaker 1: Road back from an injury, and the coordinators will address

Speaker 1: the media this week and anything that is said. Hazycardinals

Speaker 1: dot com is the place to go to read and

Speaker 1: listen to what the coordinators have said for the first

Speaker 1: time since they were introduced all the way back in

Speaker 1: February special thanks to everyone behind the scenes. Our executive

Speaker 1: producer Jim Amahundro simply put producer Cody Fincher for Zach Gershman.

Speaker 1: I'm Praigriolu. We'll talk to you next time here on

Speaker 1: Cardinals Cover two.
