NFL Cover Zero: NFL Free Agency and Chargers CB Cam Hart

00:00:06
Speaker 1: NFL Cover Zero with Matt Jones and Drew Franklin is a production of the NFL and iHeart podcast.

00:00:20
Speaker 2: Welcome into a new edition of NFL Cover Zero. Drew Franklin here filling in for Matt Jones with Billy Relish. Matt is up in Bristol, Connecticut, trying to get a flight back to Kentucky as we have some bizarre snow situations on March seventeenth. Billy, but we'll fill in for him as we set up our next interview from the Super Bowl back in San Francisco. We're going to continue to play these out today. We got a little cam Hard got from the Fighting Irish and speaking of the Fighting Irish, Billy to Saint Patrick's Day, and you're not wearing green. I'm I just have to throw that out there first. You're not a participant wearing green. I just forgot.

00:00:53
Speaker 3: I normally take part in drinking green beer and maybe skyline Chile with green noodles. But I just didn't wear my green back in the day. That would get me pinched. But Drew, don't pinch me. I don't think we need that, right.

00:01:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not middle school pinch you, But I did notice as soon as I walked in you weren't wearing green, but I did. I am wearing my green. I did notice you have on your Super Bowl hat. I don't have mine on today, but I've been accused of wearing it way too often. My wife even said recently, did all the other hats go away in the closet? But we were it because we're still kind of pinching ourselves. We were there.

00:01:23
Speaker 3: I'm still there mentally. Actually I've come back. I'm just I'm a shell of myself. It was definitely one of the best trips.

00:01:30
Speaker 4: Of my life.

00:01:30
Speaker 3: And you know, you know, the NFL not going on right now, but yet we've still got a lot of news.

00:01:37
Speaker 2: Recently, you know, and then we'll never stops right. Free agency season has been wild. We won't break it all down for you. We got to get to this cam Heart interview. But I mean, there's been a few topics we should address.

00:01:45
Speaker 4: We had a lot of.

00:01:46
Speaker 2: Time here before we toss back to San Francisco. Did you have any favorite free agency signings? I mean, we could just go down the list, but I'll let you lead off. Is there something that stood out to you that you want to brag about or complain about.

00:01:57
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm very biased as a Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan, but Kenneth Gainwell was named the MVP of the Steelers last year from the team and then how he goes to Tampa. But I'm really still trying to get over Mike Evans leaving to go to San Francisco. Not only that, Drew, but to take a low amount of money was not about the money for him. He felt like he would go win a championship over there. I would argue there's an electrical substation that could screw with his hamstring with all the places. I mean, he's a guy that hasn't played a full season in years, so I wish him nothing but the best. But he's taken some shots on the way out and I really don't know.

00:02:29
Speaker 4: How to handle it.

00:02:29
Speaker 2: Drew, he is, and he can't help that. You know, he got paid well to go to a contender, But on the forty nine Ers end, with all the injuries they've had the last several years, I was a little surprised that they went after a guy with, you know, back into his career he had coming off for recent injuries. That was a surprise move. But I guess in some ways, I'm happy for him, a guy that's been awesome. I don't want to downplay your books, but for him to at least as you see, many guys do try to go get a ring on their way out.

00:02:53
Speaker 3: Well, the forty nine feel like they're a piece of way, and Mike feels like he's that piece. He actually said that verbatim, but I don't know. I've given ollipops a try for Christian McCaffrey. Remember he was smart than those during our interview, And I mean, I like the root beer one, Drew, but I can't say I like many more.

00:03:09
Speaker 4: But I tried, Christian, I tried.

00:03:10
Speaker 2: That's all right, And we're still pinging ourselves at Chritian McCaffrey.

00:03:13
Speaker 4: I mean, come on, Andrew.

00:03:14
Speaker 3: We sang to Bryce Young the Carolina Mike song. I still never get over that. Speaking of quarterbacks, how do you feel about Kyler Murray going to the Vikings? Another Surprisse move. We talked a lot about Kyler Murray and the struggles in Arizona throughout our Cover zero season. We also talked about the Vikings QB's situation a lot. How can we not I.

00:03:33
Speaker 2: Think, yeah, there you go. You'd had a few things to say about all nine.

00:03:36
Speaker 4: Now they're rolling the.

00:03:38
Speaker 2: Dice with Kyler Murray to see what he still has left. Man, do they have egg on their face?

00:03:41
Speaker 3: Sam Darnold leaves and then goes wins a Super Bowl and JJ McCarthy really struggles. I had no idea Kyler Murray grew up watching the Vikings. So when he's like very earnest saying I grew up watching these games, Brett Favre throwing a touchdown made me cry things like that. I love when people return home like that. And he's still got some left in the tuk right like. And with a good defense and some weapons, Kyler can can play ball. He just needs to get into his playbook a little bit more.

00:04:06
Speaker 2: No doubt, he's got plenty of targets in Minnesota, so maybe this can revive him a little bit after he'd got pretty disappointing there in Arizona. Have you been keeping up with Donna Kelsey's home renovations. I actually that internet joke's been going for a couple of weeks, and I thought we were past it. And yesterday TMZ shared a photo of a man installing a window saying the windows are in. So it looks like we as a society are just all in on following the Donna Kelsey home renovation. Well they know it gets the clicks and it's the swifties. Are you clicking a new window arrives at Donna Kelse's house?

00:04:36
Speaker 3: I'm not, But there are a lot of crazy people out there, and I understand what TMZ's doing. You've seen these newspapers nowaday and some of the crazy headlines that their online version will have. So I keep me posted though, true, I mean, what else is going to happen with the renovation?

00:04:50
Speaker 2: You know, on pins on needles, wondering if they're going to read blacktop her driveway or you know, maybe some fresh landscaping. I'm actually refreshing Twitter right now, hoping someone will update me. But for now, we just know that the windows are here. But a surprising topic this off season, Elsey's back for another year. Yeah, she stole the headlines. Yeah, Travis coming back to Kansas City. I think most of us thought it was kind of the end last year. Do we think the disappointment and how the chief season win. He just couldn't go out like that? Sat Yeah, left a bad taste in his mouth.

00:05:16
Speaker 3: I feel like he's kind of borderline still got it, And when you still got it, I'm sure there's a yearning to compete at this highest level. So a couple more years, maybe one more, and then he can go off into the sunset. They just signed Justin Fields as their backup to Patrick Mahomes, one of the many additions that we've seen over the.

00:05:32
Speaker 4: Cap past couple weeks.

00:05:33
Speaker 2: A few more things just off the top of my head, there's been so much my brain's spinning. But the Max Crosby trade, that was an adventual.

00:05:39
Speaker 4: How bizarre.

00:05:39
Speaker 2: It looks like the Ravens are just loading up on defense to try to get that Super Bowl ring. You know, they're on the edge of the Lamar Henry. You know you gotta win now mode. I know we have a lot of Bengals fans and they did not love the thought of Max Crosby going to the Ravens. And then he gets there and that gets nixed, and he's he and the Raiders both are putting on a big smile like that never happened.

00:05:58
Speaker 3: And then how about the reporting that Trey Hendrickson is in the building thinking he's going to be teaming up with Max Crosby, and then Max Crosby's deal falls through. It had to be a little bit of buyer's remorse. Right the the market for Henderson went down a little bit. They were like, are we really going to give away two first round picks for this guy? But everybody they knew what was happening with the physical. It's not like that was late arriving news. So, I mean, a very bizarre situation, no doubt for a superstar in this league.

00:06:24
Speaker 2: That added to the Bengals frustrations having Hendrickson involved too. Yeah, pro Bowler, still a little bit of life for you left getting a big deal there. It's gonna be good in Baltimore. I think I really do. Speaking of being good, I put this on the back of our news. My Titans are back. Oh yeah, you know, I was pretty grumpy last year. I've been grumpy for a few years. We haven't been in the best spot. But we're back. You're back. We're all the way back. You kind of dig the one Dell robbin Yeah, the new digs. That's also part of being back. I love the one Dell Robinson signing. It's no secret wor Kentucky guys. Wan Dell played here for maybe one of UK's best seasons in a long time, if not ever. And now you're telling me after the great season he had in New York, I get to watch him in Nashville. Well, he's two and a half three hours from his hometown in Frankfurt, Kentucky. And another weapon for cam Ward. You know, they loaded up on defense, made a lot of moves. I like a lot of it, but the Wan Dell one really stuck out to me and says a lot. With Brian dave Oll coming over his offensive coordinator from New York, how much he really believed in him too, because that wouldn't have well kept secret. The moment Dave All got the job, there were whispers he's bringing Robinson with him a.

00:07:28
Speaker 3: Thousand yards last year, the smallest guy to do that in a while, and maybe he can do it again. I love the addition of Wandell Robinson. And don't undersell it, Drew. You were in Nashville last week and the Titans surprised you with cheerleaders and a new uniform with your name on the bat.

00:07:42
Speaker 2: That was wild. I mean, the Super Bowl thing still has me grinning. From ear to ear. But we were just at the SEC tournament a week ago in Nashville. We do our show at Tin Roof on Broadway before every UK game this year is very early in the morning. Kintucky playing the first game every day, so our KSR show was there at eight am local time every morning. I'm there Friday, just thinking it's a regular day, got mcffee, got my Kentucky gear in The other guys keep talking about a surprise at nine thirty, and I'm like, oh.

00:08:09
Speaker 4: That's cool.

00:08:10
Speaker 2: I guess I guess they're not going to tell me.

00:08:11
Speaker 4: And it goes on and on.

00:08:12
Speaker 2: I'm wondering, am I involved in this surprise because everyone's talking about it, but no one is really including me in the conversations. And then I look up and there's a commotion in the very back of the bar. I see what looks to be the Titans cheerleaders, and I thought, well, that's weird. I mean, if the Kentucky cheerleaders came here, that would make sense play here in an hour? Why are the Titans cheerleaders walk cheer? And as they get closer and closer, I think even say on the radio, are they here for me? They walk up to the stage and presented me with the new Titans uniform, which had just been released the night before at a big party in Nashville. I couldn't even get in. I tried, it was so popular cover zero. Couldn't even get in the house. But then they surprised me the next morning and I heard through the gravevine you played a role in setting that up. So thank you and to the Titans. I was absolutely blown away by that surprise last Friday. Yeah, it was really happy for you. The Titans reached out to me. I didn't have to give them my visit digital business card. They just looked up my number on LinkedIn, So I guess power to them. But we are luckily able to make it work. So now, what do you think of the uniform and the logo. You can't bad mouth it now, right, well, I certainly couldn't bad math it now. I genuinely like it. I will say I'm gonna miss the Navy a little bit. I hope we do an alternate of throwbacks with some Navy because it's always been the two tone blue for me. Now I've enjoyed the oilers alternate throwbacks. Don't get me wrong, I like these, but they have gone all in on the throwbacks. Might even be needling Houston a little bit lit as they fight over that. So I do like them, but I hope the Navy isn't gone forever.

00:09:38
Speaker 3: And it's one more year at Nissan Stadium before the new stadium, right.

00:09:41
Speaker 2: Yes, And I drove by that thing. My goodness, it had been a while since I had been to Nashville, and it is coming along, you know, sitting right next to the old one that's in pretty rough shape, and it is a monster, and I can't wait for it to be done and get inside there. I almost bought season tickets. I wanted to be on the ground floor of something. You know, you got friends who are like my grandpa had the first seat Reperna and it's passed down. I thought, you know what, I don't really have a connection. You know, UK's work, but I don't get to buy tickets and do the fan experience. So when the Titans announced this new stadium, I thought, this is my chance to be the part of something at the beginning. I went down there to the Titans house, I did the tour where you can pick your seat, went through the whole process. They called me forty two times, and then at the end of the day, I realized that two of my best friends in Nashville bought six tickets each, and I thought, why would I need tickets if they do. So the dream of me having my own PSL died, but I'm still very excited to see that and be a part of it. Even if I didn't fully commit, I thought it'd be you know, living three and a half hours away be a tough commute to make home games.

00:10:43
Speaker 3: Well, people without short term memory loss will remember that the Titans kind of broke up with you last year, and the Bills had quite the pitch to get you to come to Buffalo. So you've really, I guess, come full circle with the Titans. Now we're back back in the good graces. I do think there might have been they saw my flirtation with Buffalo.

00:10:59
Speaker 2: I enjoyed being a part of Bill's mafia. They still live in my heart. But you know, my real love reminded me that we have a real love. He got dressed up, went out to the bar. The Titans saw them wondering eyes and they said, hey, lock in, We're on m couch night watching Love Is Blonde. Marathon. We're in a relationship. I'm glad you think Buffalo's cute, but stay right here and I'm not going anywhere. But that really was cool that the Titans did that, and thank you for setting it up. We're not just going to go over all a free agency. We got to get to the Camhart interview again. I love that we're doing a little fighting Irish captain here on St. Patrick's Day.

00:11:47
Speaker 3: And these interviews on the last day were a little different, right, we had much less preparation time. They were kind of throwing us names we hadn't heard of before we got up there, and honestly, Drew, I think they all turned out like we got some interesting conversation out of every interview.

00:11:59
Speaker 4: Oh, they were great.

00:11:59
Speaker 2: Day one, we were starstruck because we didn't even know what we were walking into. They have a set there with their names on it, and we're like, what is going on? And the next thing you know, you're talking to Terrell Davis the first interview we do. Then you got Bryce, you know, and Christian me. I mean, we are just our brains are spinning, like how did we get here? By day three, we had kind of gotten the routine and we had a full list five or six guys which we're going to replay throughout the summer, and not that they were like secondary in our brains, but we had kind of settled in a little bit and then they were awesome and a lot of them really funny, including Cam Hart, had some great moments. I talked about being out in LA with the Chargers, where we've always wondered if they have fans. I believe we talked to a little Mike McDaniel with them as he goes out there. So everyone sit back, take a listen. Cornerback Cam Heart from the Irish on St. Patrick's Day when Billy didn't decided not to wear green, go back to San Francisco with us. Here's KSR.

00:12:49
Speaker 4: Camphart.

00:12:53
Speaker 1: All right, we are back with Cam Hart. He is the defensive back for the LA Chargers. I'm gonna go ahead and tell you the normal thing here to do would be to start talking about football, and I'm going to I'm just going you.

00:13:06
Speaker 4: I saw you have a political science degree, so.

00:13:08
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make you rough up on the little politics here because that's kind of my bag and you probably don't get asked a lot about that.

00:13:15
Speaker 4: Dude, yeah, I know, but we will get to that in a minute.

00:13:18
Speaker 1: You Chargers this year tough ending to the season, but I thought in a lot of ways took a bunch of steps forward with the new coach. Tell me about the difference in the philosophies and how and how this season went.

00:13:31
Speaker 4: For you guys.

00:13:32
Speaker 5: I think it was just a building point, honestly. Obviously, like you said, it didn't end. How we won't sit in I much rather be getting ready for the game right now than uh being here. But like, I think we're returning in the right direction. I think the highers that we made this offseason with Mike McDaniel and Chris O'Leary are two great hires.

00:13:51
Speaker 4: And are you gonna make fun of the way Mike McDaniel dresses?

00:13:55
Speaker 1: Make fun of it, like just having him to get a little bit longer pants?

00:14:00
Speaker 4: Can you? I mean you? I mean he's on the other side, so he's not like you were.

00:14:07
Speaker 1: Just tell him like the glasses and then like looking like he's on the ones and two.

00:14:13
Speaker 4: I like it. You gotta be yourself, man, you gotta be yourself.

00:14:16
Speaker 2: On a serious note, you all had some unfortunate luck with injuries this year, and that think it really held you back. It seemed like every Sunday I'm hearing about another offensive line injury. On one hand, you know, how much do you think that really impacted you?

00:14:27
Speaker 4: In two?

00:14:28
Speaker 2: Did they ever ask you to block and practice because they were short on bodies so much?

00:14:31
Speaker 5: Man, I would have did it. I would have did it. I'd do anything to take that dude justin But no, Yeah, I think it impacted this a lot. I mean, you lose two All Pro tackles. I mean that's going to impact any NFL and any any football team, honestly.

00:14:45
Speaker 4: And then I think we.

00:14:45
Speaker 5: Had like nine different combination of offensive line and no offensive line is a position where like camaraderie is a big thing, and just having that many different combinations that's been tough though, dudes.

00:14:56
Speaker 4: So I wouldn't stay it firsthand. And yeah, I mean I couldn't do that. I couldn't do it.

00:15:03
Speaker 2: But uh yeah, tell me a little bit about Notre Dame. You were a captain there, right, Yeah, So like was that important to you? I mean did that mean a lot? And how did you take on that leadership role?

00:15:12
Speaker 5: That's something I remember for the rest of my life. I mean being a cabin under her name, and that wasn't one of my dreams. That wasn't something I thought that was possible, but it just happened. And just having the respect and respect from my teammates and the coaches, that's a big thing for me and I'll carry that for the rest aller.

00:15:30
Speaker 1: Coach Freeman's hairline, Okay, it's absolutely like it's it really is perfection. Yeah, do you how much time do we spend do you think he spins working on that?

00:15:42
Speaker 4: Cause I will say he's the first.

00:15:44
Speaker 1: He's the first coach that I was watching a game with a woman I was dating and she was like, who's that.

00:15:52
Speaker 4: Is the first? I think He gives his haircut probably three times a week.

00:15:56
Speaker 5: Yeah, Yeah, he gets it touched up a couple of times a weeks. Yeah, he gets it touched up in the barber day. That that does it. He's pretty good. He cuts everybody on too.

00:16:06
Speaker 4: What makes him so successful? Like why is he? But yes, he's very personable.

00:16:11
Speaker 5: You can go to Coach Freeman about anything, and I think he understands his players, and I think that's a huge thing about coaching for instending who you're working with. A lot of coaches, I don't know if they spend the time understanding their their players, they just.

00:16:27
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't I don't want to get in to that, but I think coach Freeman I like to get it to it. I mean college is a different thing.

00:16:33
Speaker 1: So college there's a lot of times I think college coaches they they feel like they're more the authority figure versus the younger guys. We're in the pros, it's almost like a yeah, you're almost like a mutual respect thing, a mutual respect thing. And so it does seem like Freeman takes that attitude. I feel like he would be successful in the NFL.

00:16:52
Speaker 4: Do you think he would? I believe so.

00:16:53
Speaker 5: I think this how this like you said, I think he takes that mutual respective approach and in college. And I don't know when he's going to make that jump or if he's going to make that jump, but I do think that he would be successful in NFL. He's played in the NFL. He has experience, and he understands what it's what it's like to be a player at a high level. So I think he'll be successful there.

00:17:15
Speaker 2: You play a position that's known do a little trash talk, not saying you in particular, but traditionally trash.

00:17:21
Speaker 4: Talk on that on the inside.

00:17:22
Speaker 2: Do you like to get into that a little bit, and who's a receiver that is as good at giving it back?

00:17:28
Speaker 5: I would say this year, there's not a lot of receivers that talk trash. Honestly, shut them up, or maybe I just.

00:17:35
Speaker 4: Be shut up. I just stay in my bag.

00:17:38
Speaker 5: But Stephan Diggs talks a lot of trash. We went to the same high school, so that was that was a battle that I always look forward to and I finally got the opportunity to guard him, And yeah, we were talking.

00:17:50
Speaker 4: Had some juice to the game talking it does. Who's got a receiver.

00:17:55
Speaker 1: On the other side that you see And I'm not saying you're scared of me, but you're the one that goes that's gonna be my toughest matchup, that's the one that is going to push me to the limit the most.

00:18:07
Speaker 5: H Two guys come to mind, well three guys comeing to by, Jamar Chase, Puka Decula, and Jessen.

00:18:13
Speaker 1: But now those are three very different types of receivers.

00:18:16
Speaker 5: What makes them each so difficult? I think Pooka and Jamar Chase are very similar. This what they can do outter the catch and then JS and he just very creative and is route running. He makes everything looks the same. I played him in college, I'm gonna play him next year. But I think he makes everything looks the same and just very accept the book.

00:18:35
Speaker 4: How you went so all right?

00:18:37
Speaker 1: So I want you to be able to take up for a group of people that have been often criticized on this show. I used to always say that I'd never met a Chargers fan. I did that literally, Like, of all the thirty two fan bases, the one fan base that I'd never met was a Chargers fan. Okay, I used to have him in San Diego, but then they moved. Take up for the Chargers fan base. People always say all they have no and you.

00:19:03
Speaker 4: Know the base.

00:19:04
Speaker 5: If you look at the attendance from the NFL charges, his top ten boom numbers, you go there, you go, no, the charges. I mean the fan base of back this all year. I think it's continuing to grow. I mean we're freshly new and in Los Angeles over the past five years, so like, I just think it's continued to grow.

00:19:26
Speaker 4: Yeah, how cool.

00:19:27
Speaker 2: Was the international game you all played?

00:19:29
Speaker 4: In the year. It was pretty cool. It just being in Brazil.

00:19:31
Speaker 5: I mean you're looking at Stanley, you see all the different types of jerseys. I don't know, Yeah, they don't necessarily just where the jerseys of the team is playing.

00:19:40
Speaker 4: They just see a Chap Bailey jersey. Yeah, yeah, all right.

00:19:45
Speaker 1: So justin Herbert comes in and says, hey, guys, got a new lady. Her name's Her name's Madison Beer. What's the locker room's reaction when he comes in with, you know, a famous new and new lake.

00:19:58
Speaker 5: Honestly, I didn't know it to the I didn't know it to on social media, Okay, like doesn't he's a he's a very quiet guy. I mean he does and he doesn't talk about much other than football in locker room.

00:20:10
Speaker 4: He's about his business.

00:20:11
Speaker 5: And once social media started posting, that's when I found out about it.

00:20:14
Speaker 4: So they do people give me a hard time? They're like, or are they trying to get hooked up? Probably trying to get up friends.

00:20:20
Speaker 6: I'm not Yeah, hardball is just always drinking milk behind the scenes.

00:20:39
Speaker 1: Did make a milk Well, he's a he's a khaki pants milk guy.

00:20:43
Speaker 4: He's one of those people does he just have a gallon of milk all the time.

00:20:46
Speaker 2: Do you have not seen that?

00:20:47
Speaker 4: I've never seen. Okay, I might be probably make anything milk, okay. I mean there's a Michigan Notre Dame thing. They used to be kind of a little bit of a ribery. Do you do you guys? You ever talk Trasher? I personally hate Michigan. Oh really Michigan. Why do you hate Michigan? I think because I wanted to.

00:21:04
Speaker 5: Go to Michigan in high school and they coach talk about it.

00:21:05
Speaker 1: Now for me, you wanted to go to Michigan did Hardball doesn't recruit you, so I guess when you're at Notre Dame you're kind of like blank that that Jim Harbor and then all of a sudden, I'm going to becomes your coach.

00:21:23
Speaker 4: How do you get over that? Just talk about it?

00:21:26
Speaker 5: No, I ask them, I can help you all bring that to g What did he say? Why did he I don't remember what he said. I think he was like he wasn't going to come to Michigan or something like something like that. Something somebody Yes, but I've gone I'm going to love coach Tarball. I mean the d who knows how to win. All he cares about his football and that's all you can ask for it.

00:21:46
Speaker 1: All right, last last question politics? Your political science makes Now I'm not going to ask you who you voted for, because I will judge you if you went the other way. But but but did you do you follow it? I mean like, you don't see a lot of football players who majored in political science, So do you?

00:22:03
Speaker 4: So do you follow what's going on.

00:22:05
Speaker 2: In the world?

00:22:05
Speaker 4: Well, one that was my I always wanted to go to law school. I went to law school, so yeah.

00:22:10
Speaker 5: Okay, okay, I always wanted to go to law school, and that was the faster check. I know what, did we go to law school just to get your your I guess, reading, writing, all that stuff. But no, I don't follow politics as much as you would think. So I think this was very polarizing. Yes, they're very unified. The world is crazy, and I think the more people talk about the more.

00:22:34
Speaker 4: The crazier he gets. I guess. So I just try to stay away from it.

00:22:38
Speaker 5: I'm I'm up to date with what's going on, but I don't give my opinion on it much or I understand.

00:22:43
Speaker 1: Well, I can tell you one thing you did do correctly was not becoming a lawyer. I was a lawyer for a few years and it's the worst. So you had a much better I wanted.

00:22:54
Speaker 4: To be an agent. I want to go to law school. You can still do that.

00:22:58
Speaker 1: But you see the agents walking around here, they all kind of look a little sleazy. They maybe over his lazy business.

00:23:07
Speaker 4: Cam Heart, thank you very much. We appreciate it. I appreciate John, thank you.

00:23:14
Speaker 2: All right, A great interview with cam Hart. As we promised. Billy still not wearing green. I tried to fund him a button as that was playing. But you enjoyed the cam Heart interview. It's another how's When we moved to that other stage with the comfortable seating, we were kind of more in our zone there too. I think, yeah, the lounge, the lounge as they call it.

00:23:28
Speaker 3: I mean we had two different sets to choose from, and we I think we hit our stride on that final day. Learned a lot of interesting things about these guys. And look, I'm going to be rooting for cam Hart now over the Chargers. They're going to be making some noise Jim Harbaugh and Justin Herbert, So I think we'll have to keep an.

00:23:42
Speaker 4: Eye on him.

00:23:43
Speaker 2: Absolutely, keep an eye on Cover zero because we're going to keep releasing these interviews from the Super Bowl and our lead up to the NFL Draft. Today was cam Ward. Next week we'll have Brown's cornerback, Denzel Ward, who tells us all about what it's like playing in Cleveland. I remember asking him a lot of Miles Garrett questions because I want to know what it's like working alongside that beast of a human being.

00:24:04
Speaker 3: And I think we talked some fashion with him because he had diamonds in his hair. Anybody, somebody, anytime somebody shows up with diamonds in the hair, you gotta get some fashion advice.

00:24:12
Speaker 2: So looking forward to that, of course, and if we're lucky enough to go back to the super Bowl next year, I will have diamonds in my bill, probably cubic scronium. I don't know that I'll do actual diamonds, but we will. We will try to mimic the look because he looks so good. But for now, this is your cam Heart interview. Happy Saint Patrick's Day. Matt should be back next week. If not, do we have issues with him not getting back from Bristol. But thanks for listening to another episode for Drew Franklin Billy R Sports. We'll talk to you again next week with Denzel Ward from the Browns.
