ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO, WE'RE

ROLLIN', LET'S GO!

PLAY CLOCK STARTIN'.

HEY, WATCH YOUR PLAY CLOCK.

FALSE START!

HEY, LET'S GO, REFOCUS RIGHT

HERE, RESET, REFOCUS.

180, WE'RE SET!

GOT IT.

WHAT HAPPENED?

FALSE START?

GO, GO, NO, TAKE OFF.

TAKE OFF.

WE CAN'T EVEN SNAP THE BALL.

ONES WILL BE UP WHEN WE GET

BACK, ONES WILL BE UP.

GO.

JUST GO.

RUN.

WE GOT ALL THESE PLAYS, BUT WE

CAN'T GET OFF THE BALL AT THE

SAME TIME.

AVERAGING TWO A PRACTICE.

WE'RE AVERAGING TWO OF THOSE A

PRACTICE.

FOR 17 PRACTICES.

IT'S RIDICULOUS.

COME ON, COME ON!

I FEEL GOOD.

DOESN'T REALLY MATTER, THOUGH,

HOW I FEEL.

IT'S HOW YOU GUYS FEEL.

HOW YOU GUYS FEEL, RIGHT?

ALMOST HOME, B.

LOTTA SHIT, THOUGH.

YEAH, WE GOT A LOT LEFT TO DO

IN THE NEXT WEEK.

Narrator: FOR PLAYERS

FIGHTING FOR A SPOT ON THE

ROSTER, THIS IS THE MOST FRAUGHT

WEEK OF TRAINING CAMP.

THERE'S NO TIME LEFT FOR

MISTAKES OR EXCUSES.

DAMN BRO, I CAN'T DO SHIT

BRO.

ALL RIGHT, WE GOTTA BE ON THE

SAME PAGE, RIGHT?

WE DON'T WANNA GIVE UP FREE

PLAYS.

Narrator: CAREERS ARE AT

STAKE.

A COUPLE OF GREAT PLAYS, AND YOU

MIGHT MAKE THE TEAM.

A COUPLE OF DUDS, AND YOU COULD

BE CUT.

COME ON, COME ON.

IT CAN'T BE ME WHO LOSES HIS

MAN, CAN'T BE YOU WHO LOSES HIS

MAN.

RIGHT?

DON'T BE THE REASON.

LET'S GO.

THE CUT DOWN LOOMS, AND THOSE

ARE TOUGH DAYS.

YOU KNOW, ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT

IS THOSE GUYS RIGHT NOW AND

THEIR FAMILIES WHO ARE PUTTING

EVERYTHING THEY HAVE INTO THIS

LAST GAME COMING UP.

MAKE PLAYS, MAKE PLAYS.

MAKE PLAYS ON THE BALL.

Narrator: THERE'S A TENSION

IN THE AIR.

SOME PLAYERS THRIVE, OTHERS

FOLD.

KNOWING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A

BAD DAY AND A BAD PROSPECT ISN'T

EASY.

ARE SOME GUYS LETTING

MISTAKES MULTIPLY?

YOU KNOW, ARE THEY ABLE TO FLUSH

IT, MOVE ON, NEXT PLAY.

JOE.

WE'RE NOT GOING THROUGH ON

THAT MOTION RIGHT?

NO.

DO YOU HAVE A VARIETY OF

SKILL SETS?

COME ON, K.J.!

WHAT IS THEIR FOURTH DOWN

VALUE?

WHAT ARE THEY GONNA ADD TO OUR

SPECIAL TEAMS?

LET'S GET ANOTHER ONE, 84.

IN THE FACE.

WHO'S COMPETING?

FINISH STRONG, FINISH STRONG.

LET'S GO.

WHO IS FIGHTING THEIR ASS OFF

TO EARN A SPOT ON THIS TEAM?

FOR THE GUYS THAT ARE PLAYING

FOR THIS WEEKEND, WHEN YOU GO

INTO A GAME INTENTIONALLY, YOU

HAVE TO HAVE SOMETHING IN YOUR

MIND THAT YOU'RE GONNA DO BETTER

THAN THE LAST OUTING.

WHATEVER THAT IS, EVERYBODY'S

GOT SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

SO WHATEVER THAT IS, WE GOTTA

LOCK IT IN, AND FROM NOW UNTIL

THE TIME WE PLAY, YOU GOTTA

PREPARE ALL THE WAY UP AND

THROUGH THE COMPETITION.

ALL THE UP AND THROUGH THE

CONTEST TO MAKE SURE THAT IT

LOOKS BETTER THIS TIME THAN IT

DID THE LAST.

YOUR TAPE IS YOUR TAPE.

ALL 32 TEAMS ARE WATCHING IT,

NOT ONLY US.

SO MAKE SURE IT'S ELITE WHEN YOU

PUT IT ON THERE.

Narrator: GOOD TEAMS ARE

MARKED WITH A BULL'S-EYE.

THE BILLS ARE SUCH A TEAM.

THAT MEANS GET BETTER OR DON'T

BOTHER.

ALL RIGHT.

THE GAME WASN'T AS-- YOU KNOW,

LIKE WHAT WE WANTED IT, RIGHT?

BUT THE MAIN THING IS YOU GUYS

PLAYED HARD, YOU KNOW, TO THE

END.

AND IT WAS LIKE, IT WASN'T LIKE

ALL BAD, BUT WHEN IT WAS BAD,

IT WAS BAD, RIGHT?

WE DROPPED THE PASS, OR WE RAN

THE WRONG ROUTE, OR WE DIDN'T

GET WHERE WE NEEDED TO BE.

SO THERE'S JUST A LITTLE DETAILS

OF IT, RIGHT?

AND THE NUMBER ONE THING IS WE

GOT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE

ELITE LISTENERS AND THAT WE'RE

NOT REPEAT OFFENDERS.

ALL RIGHT, OBVIOUSLY, WE GOT

A COUPLE THINGS TO CLEAN UP.

EVERY COACH GONNA COME IN HERE

AND SAY THE SAME THING.

WE KNOW WHAT IT IS, THE STANDARD

IS THE STANDARD.

I WAS TALKING TO TRE EARLIER,

TRE HIT ME WITH, COACH, MY

ME,

STANDARD GONNA BE HIGHER THAN

ME, THAN ANYTHING THAT ANY COACH

GOT FOR ME.

AND AT THE END OF THE DAY

THAT'S WHAT WE WANNA HEAR.

WHEN I TALK TO YOU GUYS

POST-PRACTICE ABOUT IT BEING A

PLAYER-LED TEAM, YOU GOTTA HAVE

GUYS WITH THAT MINDSET LEADING

THIS THING IF WE WANNA GO WHERE

WE WANNA TO GO.

WHAT DID YOU TELL ME ABOUT TRE

TODAY?

SHARE IT WITH THE CLASS.

I WAS JUST SAYING, TRE LIKE

TEN YEARS IN, BUT STILL BEATING

HIMSELF UP AFTER LIKE A BAD REP

BECAUSE HE WANTS THE BEST FOR

HIMSELF.

IT'S IMPRESSIVE TO WATCH,

AIN'T IT?

YEAH.

AS A YOUNGER GUY, MAN, Y'ALL

GOTTA LEARN FROM THAT.

THESE DUDES HAVE BEEN HERE AND

BEEN PLAYING AT A HIGH LEVEL FOR

A LONG TIME, AND THAT'S WHY.

Narrator: THERE'S FILM STUDY.

WE ARE GOOD TO GO?

WE ARE GOOD.

Narrator: AND THEN THERE'S

THIS.

STATE-OF-THE-ART OPTICS FOR NEXT

LEVEL ANALYSIS.

HOW DOES THAT FEEL?

YOU WERE DEFINITELY MORE-- I

WAS JUST GOING TO ASK YOU IF IT

FELT GOOD OR IF YOU FELT LIKE

SHIT.

Narrator: BIOMETRIC EXPERT

CHRIS HESS IS HELPING THE BILL'S

QUARTERBACKS HONE THEIR THROWING

MOTION.

IS THERE ANYTHING YOU'RE

FEELING OR WANT TO DO OR WORK

ON?

OR YOU GOOD?

UH...

GIMME LIKE ANOTHER DEEP ROUTE,

OR A CUE TO THE RIGHT.

FANCY TERM WOULD BE APPLIED

BIOMECHANICS AND PERFORMANCE

ANALYSIS.

SIMPLE TERMS IS WE'RE MEASURING

THE QUARTERBACK'S MOVEMENT TO

HELP OPTIMIZE THEIR EFFICIENCY

AND HELP THEM AVOID INJURY.

FOR THAT, WE'RE USING 3D

MOTION CAPTURE.

WE'RE USING HIGH-SPEED CAMERAS

TO MEASURE RELEASE DYNAMICS.

THAT WAS SWEET.

COMPARE THAT TO WHAT THEY'VE

DONE IN THE PAST AND JUST HELP

THEM CONTINUE TO IMPROVE THEIR

CRAFT AND THEIR SKILL.

SHANE'S GOT A BEAUTIFUL THROWING

MOTION, RIGHT?

GREW UP IN BASEBALL AS A PLAYER.

HE IS A NATURAL THROWER.

THAT'S, LIKE, PERFECT.

MITCH, A LITTLE LESS EXTERNAL

ROTATION, SO HE'S REALLY GOT TO

BE GOOD WITH THE BODY.

FANTASTIC ATHLETE.

GOOD.

AND THEN MIKE WHITE, I

ACTUALLY STARTED MEASURING MIKE

DOWN IN FLORIDA WHEN HE WAS

STILL WITH THE DOLPHINS.

WATCHING MIKE PROGRESS THROUGH

AND IMPROVE HIS MOTION, IT'S

BEEN FANTASTIC TO WATCH.

GIVE ME GO'S AT THE 50 RED

LINE.

AND THEN WE'VE GOT GUYS LIKE

JOSH THAT ARE KIND OF-- GO FROM

NEXT LEVEL TO ALIEN LEVEL.

CHRIS HESS HONESTLY CHANGED

MY LIFE IN TERMS OF HOW I THREW

THE FOOTBALL.

HE KNOWS WHAT I'VE LOOK LIKE AT

MY BEST, HE KNOWS WHAT I'VE LOOK

LIKE AT MY WORST.

YOU SEE ANYTHING?

YEAH.

WHAT HAVE YOU GOT?

LEANING BACK.

LEANING BACK AGAIN?

YEAH.

CHEST OVER TOES.

AND WHAT MAY TAKE ANOTHER

QUARTERBACK TWO MONTHS, HE CAN

DO IN TWO OR THREE REPS AND JUST

BE LIKE YOU MEAN LIKE THIS IT'S

LIKE-- YEAH.

GOOD?

YEAH, THAT LOOKED REALLY

GOOD.

YOU WANNA SEE ANYTHING ELSE?

NO, THE FACT THAT YOU

CORRECTED THAT POSTURE IN LIKE

TWO REPS WAS FANTASTIC.

THIS THROW HERE?

THAT'S NOT NORMAL.

SO WHEN WE'RE GOING INTO THE

ANALYSIS OF THE QUARTERBACKS OF

THE DATA AND THE INFORMATION

ONE, IT ALWAYS STARTS WITH THE

KINEMATIC SEQUENCE.

RIGHT, SO HOW DO WE TAKE POWER

FROM THE GROUND, PASS IT UP

THROUGH THE BODY?

GOOD.

SET.

WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT

SHOULDER EXTERNAL ROTATION, THE

ACTUAL AMOUNT.

WE'RE GONNA LOOK AT VELOCITY

THAT THEIR ARM IS ROTATING.

WE LOOK AT WHAT'S HAPPENING

ESPECIALLY WITH THE LEAD LEG.

SO AFTER THEIR FOOT STRIKES THE

GROUND, THEY STRIDE, FRONT FOOT

HITS THE GROUND.

WE DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT LEAD

KNEE FLEXING ANYMORE.

AND THEN WE'RE GOING LOOK AT THE

ROTATION SPEEDS OF THE BODY.

HOW IS THAT ENERGY TRANSFERRING

FROM THE GROUND UP THROUGH AND

OUT THROUGH THE HAND AND THE

BALL?

I FEEL LIKE I'M THROWING IT

REALLY WELL RIGHT NOW.

GOOD.

IT LOOKS-- IT LOOKS GOOD.

WHEN WE STARTED MEASURING

JOSH SIX YEARS AGO, ONE OF THE

FASTEST INTERNAL SHOULDER

ROTATIONS, HE'S A VERY ARM

DOMINANT THROWER.

WHEN HE STARTED, HE WAS ALMOST

LIKE HE WAS JUST CHUCKING A

ROCK, SO HE KIND OF WENT FROM A

CHUCKER, TO A THROWER, AND NOW

HE'S EVOLVED INTO A PASSER.

I ALSO FIGURED OUT SOMETHING

IN MY GOLF GAME YESTERDAY.

IT WAS KINDA NICE.

WHAT'D WE FIGURE OUT?

I DON'T KNOW, I FEEL LIKE I

GOT TO, LIKE THIS SPOT HERE.

IT WAS NICE.

YEAH, SO IT'S THE SAME THING

RIGHT?

SO WHEN YOU'RE, YEAH, WELL, WHEN

YOU GO BACK, IT'S EARLY

EXTENSION OR THROUGH THAT LUMBAR

SPINE, YOU'RE MOVING INTO THE

BALL, AND NOW YOU HAVE TO FLIP.

AND YOU CAN SAVE IT WITH YOUR

HAND MOST TIMES BECAUSE YOU HAVE

YOUR-- BUT WHEN YOU CAN GET

BACK, BUT YOUR CUE IS YES.

SO, RIGHT, YOU'RE GOING, SO BACK

SWING, YOU'RE LOADING, PUSHING

INTO ME, AND THEN YOU SWITCH AND

THEN PUSHING AT THAT POINT AFTER

YOU SWITCH, YOU'RE PUSHING THAT

FOOT INTO THE GROUND THERE TO

CLEAR THAT HIP, AND YOU'LL HAVE

ALL THE SPACE YOU NEED TO JUST

TURN AND SMASH.

OKAY, COOL BEANS, THANK YOU.

SEE YOU IN THE MORNING.

YOU NEED TO SEE ANYTHING

ELSE?

NO, I'M GOOD, THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

WHAT TIME TOMORROW MORNING?

7:30?

7:30 IS GOOD, QB ROOM.

STRIDE LENGTH GOT A LITTLE

BIT LONGER, WE'RE PUSHING OUT

KIND OF THE EDGE.

YOU MIGHT WANT TO GET THE FRONT

FOOT DOWN A LITTLE QUICKER.

AND IT'S NOT SO MUCH THAT YOUR

HIPS CAN'T ROTATE INTO IT, IT'S

THAT YOUR HEEL'S STRIKING.

WHEN THE HEEL STRIKES, IT'S JUST

LIKE A LAUNCH.

THE FRONT KNEE WANTS TO BEND.

IT JUST KIND OF DELAYS

EVERYTHING SO JUST GETTING THAT

FRONT FOOT DOWN A BIT QUICKER

WITH A LITTLE MORE INTENT.

YES, SIR.

DID YOU WORK ON SOME STUFF

DURING THE OFF SEASON?

YOU ROTATED BETTER THAN I'VE

EVER MEASURED YOU ROTATING

BEFORE.

YEAH.

GOOD.

IT SHOWED.

HUGE.

OH, OH, REALLY?

YEAH.

SO BASICALLY WHEN IT'S FLAT,

YOUR PELVIS IS STAYING STRAIGHT.

AS THIS STARTS TO CURVE DOWN

THAT'S YOU OPENING THE PELVIS

TOWARD THE TARGET.

SO YOU CAN SEE BASICALLY FROM

THE TIME YOU STARTED STRIDE

UNTIL THE BLUE LINE WHERE YOU

STRUCK, THE PELVIS WASN'T REALLY

OPENING THAT MUCH IN JUNE.

BUT NOW LOOK AT HERE.

YOU ARE RIPPING THAT THING.

FANTASTIC.

SO YOU ARE GETTING, LIKE, YOUR

ROTATION VELOCITIES ARE UP IN

YOUR PELVIS, IN YOUR TRUNK, AND

YOUR ARM VELOCITY WENT DOWN, BUT

YOUR BALL VELOCITY STAYED THE

SAME.

THAT IS EFFICIENCY IN A

NUTSHELL.

GOOD PROGRESS.

THANKS.

ON IT.

SO LIKE I SAID, AS LONG AS IT

FEELS GOOD AND EVERYTHING, KEEP

DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

GREAT WORK.

APPRECIATE IT.

THANKS, CHRIS.

Narrator: IT ISN'T LAUNCH

ANGLE AND ARM SPEED THAT ARE TOP

OF MIND FOR THE QUARTERBACKS

THIS WEEK.

IT'S WHO WILL BE JOSH ALLEN'S

PRIMARY BACKUP.

WAY TO SPIN IT, BABY.

NICE.

Narrator: AND WHO MIGHT FIND

THEMSELVES ON THE CUT LIST.

OH, GOT 'EM.

Narrator: THEN THERE'S THE

OTHER PART OF THE PASSING

THE RECEIVING CORPS.

THERE'S A LOT OF COMPETITION,

WHICH MEANS TOUGH CHOICES.

YOU KNOW, I THINK WE GOT A

PRETTY GOOD FEEL FOR, YOU KNOW,

ONE, TWO, THREE.

BUT WHO'S FOUR, FIVE, SIX

SEVEN?

WHO'S FOUR FIVE SIX?

WHO'S FOUR AND FIVE?

IS IT FIVE AND FOUR OR FOUR AND

FIVE, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?

SO IT'S-- ONCE YOU GET KIND OF

AFTER THAT THIRD PERSON THERE

IT'S TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHO

THE REST OF THEM ARE AND HOW

THEY CAN HELP US NOT ONLY ON

OFFENSE, BUT ON SPECIAL TEAMS.

Narrator: K.J. HAMLER IS

GIFTED.

A FORMER SECOND-ROUND PICK, HE

HAS SPEED, AGILITY, AND A LOVE

OF THE GAME.

WHAT HE DOESN'T HAVE IS A

GUARANTEED ROSTER SPOT.

HE'S JUST AN ENERGETIC BALL.

HE LOVES TO HAVE FUN.

HE LOVES HANGING WITH THE GUYS.

HE NEVER COMPLAINS.

JUST DOES EVERYTHING THAT HE HAS

TO DO.

GOOD, GOOD.

AND HE'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE

TEAMMATES I'VE EVER HAD.

Narrator: JOSH ALLEN LOVES

HIM.

BUT IT'S NOT ALLEN'S CALL ON WHO

MAKES THE TEAM.

HAMLER HAS TO OUTPLAY THE

COMPETITION.

COME ON, K.J.!

FUCK, MAN!

I KIND OF FLATTENED IT, THAT'S

WHY I DIDN'T LOCATE IT LIKE I

WANTED.

THE FUCK, MAN.

IT WAS A SHITTY DAY, BRO.

Narrator: HAMLER'S HAD BAD

DAYS BEFORE.

HE SPENT THE LAST TWO SEASONS ON

PRACTICE SQUADS AND BATTLED AN

ASSORTMENT OF HEALTH ISSUES, ONE

POTENTIALLY LIFE-THREATENING.

IT WAS 2023, STILL WITH THE

BRONCOS AT THE TIME.

AND IT WAS THE FIRST DAY OF

CAMP.

AND I REMEMBER JUST THE PAIN IN

MY CHEST, LIKE WOKE ME UP AT

LIKE 4:00 IN THE MORNING.

NONE OF MY TRAINERS ANSWERED THE

PHONE, NOBODY WAS UP.

SO, LIKE, I DROVE MYSELF TO THE

HOSPITAL, LIKE ABOUT TO PASS OUT

AT THE WHEEL.

AND IT HONESTLY FELT LIKE A

HEART ATTACK.

LIKE, I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS

GOING ON.

LIKE, I COULDN'T BREATHE.

I COULDN'T EVEN GASP.

I WAS JUST GASPING FOR AIR.

AND I REMEMBERED WHEN I GOT IN

THE HOSPITAL.

I'M ON THE PHONE WITH MY MOM AND

DAD, LIKE, PANICKING.

AND, UH...

YOU KNOW, THEY COULDN'T EVEN GET

NO MEDS INTO MY SYSTEM UNTIL

LIKE AN HOUR AND A HALF BECAUSE

SOMEBODY ELSE WAS GOING INTO

CARDIAC ARREST.

SO I'M THINKING, OH, MAN, IT'S

LIKE, NOT TO BE DRAMATIC OR

NOTHING, BUT THIS IS HOW I WAS

FEELING AT THE TIME.

LIKE I THOUGHT IT WAS MY LAST

DAY.

SO, YOU KNOW, I'M GLAD I GOT

THAT ON TRACK AND, YOU KNOW, GOT

THE MEDS THAT I NEED FOR IT.

Narrator: THE DIAGNOSIS WAS

PERICARDITIS, AN INFLAMMATION OF

THE TISSUE SURROUNDING THE

HEART.

THAT WAS TWO YEARS AGO.

HEALTHY NOW, HAMLER HOPES HIS

RESOLVE YIELDS RESULTS.

TAKE IT FOR WHAT IT'S WORTH

LIKE...

SOMETIMES IT TAKES TIME.

BUT YOUR WORK IS BEING NOTICED.

NOT JUST ONE COMMENT OR TWO

COMMENTS.

JUST KEEP DOING THIS SHIT.

I GOT YOU.

SOMETIMES IT'S HARD TO KNOW

LIKE...

YOU KNOW-- YOU KNOW I BE IN

MY HEAD SOMETIMES.

OH, YEAH, I BE IN MY HEAD,

TOO.

IT'S JUST LIKE-- IT'S JUST,

YOU KNOW, I CARE.

I GIVE A FUCK.

IT'S MORE THE PATIENCE.

THAT'S THE HARDEST PART.

BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, YOU WANNA GET

OUT THERE, YOU WANNA GET

BACK OUT THERE.

YOU KNOW, I BEEN REMOVED FROM

BALL FOR TWO YEARS NOW.

I'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT, YOU

KNOW AND I'VE, YOU KNOW ALL THE

THINGS THAT I'VE ENCOUNTERED.

AND IT'S LIKE, MAN, LIKE I KNOW

PEOPLE WHO ARE MY AGE OR YOUNGER

THAT'S NOT HAVING THESE

OPPORTUNITIES.

SO IT'S, LIKE, IF I'VE BEEN

THROUGH ALL OF THIS, YOU KNOW, I

GOTTA BE HERE FOR A REASON.

JUST BE JUST-- JUST STAY ON ME

THOUGH.

JUST STAY ON ME.

I KNOW I'M HERE FOR A REASON.

GOD AIN'T GON'-- HE AIN'T BRING

ME THIS FAR FOR NO REASON.

TWO ACL.

TORN PEC.

DISLOCATED HIP.

HEART PROBLEM.

AND YOU STILL HERE, BOY.

YOU STILL HERE, CUZ.

DON'T LET THEM TELL YOU NONE

DIFFERENT.

DON'T LET 'EM TELL YOU NOTHING

DIFFERENT.

Narrator: WHEN YOU'RE PLAYING

FOR A JOB, EVERY REP MATTERS.

JIMMY CIARLO WAS SIGNED JUST 13

DAYS AGO.

THAT MEANS THE WEST POINT GRAD

HASN'T HAD ENOUGH REPS TO BE

FULLY EVALUATED.

CAME RIGHT IN AND SAW HIM

FLASH AND THEN YOU SAID, OKAY,

HOW CAN WE GIVE HIM SOME MORE

TAPE SO WE CAN GET HIM

EVALUATED?

THE DISCIPLINE THAT YOU SEE

WITHIN HIS GAME IS EXCELLENT

HOW HE APPROACHES THE CLASSROOM

IS EXCELLENT.

HE'S GONNA SIT RIGHT THERE IN

THE FRONT ROW, HE TAKES NOTES,

ASKS GOOD QUESTIONS.

BUT LET'S TALK A LITTLE BIT

HERE, ARMY, AS WE'RE GOING.

YOU GOT A BIG GUY, RIGHT?

SO THERE'S GONNA BE A LITTLE OF

A SHIT-KICKING THAT TAKES PLACE

INITIALLY, RIGHT.

IT'S JUST GONNA HAPPEN, HE HAS

YOU BY WEIGHT.

YOU'RE SAYING, BIG GUY.

HERE HE GOES.

I STILL WANNA GO ATTACK IT AND

CLOSE IT-- TO THE BEST OF OUR

ABILITY.

ALL RIGHT, DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?

I FEEL LIKE THERE'S A LOT I

COULD DO TO CATCH UP.

THERE'S JUST ALWAYS MORE WORK TO

BE DONE AND THEN JUST REALLY OUT

OF, FOR THE FACT THAT I'M

ALREADY BEHIND COMING INTO CAMP

SO LATE.

THERE'S BEEN NIGHTS I'VE BEEN

HERE TOWARDS MIDNIGHT.

SOMEBODY ACTUALLY CAME UP TO ME

THE LAST WEEK I WAS IN HERE

LATE, AND THEY ASKED ME IF I WAS

MOVING IN.

RIGHT NOW, I'M STAYING IN A

HOTEL ABOUT 20 MINUTES AWAY.

IT'S DEFINITELY NOT COMFORTABLE

LIVING.

YOU DON'T HAVE A LOT OF YOUR

THINGS WITH YOU.

LIKE, I CAME UP HERE WITH

REALLY, TWO PAIRS OF CLOTHES.

AND MY CAR'S IN NEW JERSEY, SO,

YOU KNOW, IT'S DIFFICULT TO GET

TO AND FROM THE FACILITY IF YOU

DON'T WANT TO LEAVE AT THE TIME

THAT THEY'RE RUNNING THE

SHUTTLES.

BUT I JUST TRY TO GET THE THINGS

DONE THAT I NEED TO GET DONE.

READY, SET.

I REALLY JUST WANT TO PUT ON

TAPE THAT I COULD PLAY AT THIS

LEVEL.

I ENDED UP GETTING TONS OF

SPECIAL TEAM SNAPS LAST WEEK,

WHICH WAS HUGE FOR ME.

LET'S GO!

WE HAD SOME DBs GO DOWN, SO I

ENDED UP PLAYING A POSITION THAT

I DON'T TYPICALLY PLAY.

YOU'RE OVER THERE.

THEY LET ME KNOW A DAY BEFORE

THE GAME THAT THERE WAS A CHANCE

I COULD PLAY NICKEL.

WHAT AM I, JUST A SAFETY, OR

WHAT?

I STEPPED INTO THAT ROLE AT

SOME TIME IN THE THIRD QUARTER.

AND I PLAYED NICKEL FOR THE REST

OF THE GAME.

HEY.

AM I GOING?

NO.

WHAT AM I PLAYING?

HE CAN HANDLE SOMETHING THAT

THEY NEVER REALLY REPPED.

JIMMY'S A FOOTBALL PLAYER.

FOOTBALL PLAYERS YOU CAN,

SOMETIMES YOU CAN JUST PUT THEM

OUT THERE AND THEY'LL PUT IT

TOGETHER.

HEY!

WHAT'S UP, MAN?

WHAT'S UP, BIG GUY?

HOW'S IT GOIN', MAN?

YEAH, EVERYTHING'S GOOD.

WE JUST GOT DONE WITH OUR SECOND

PRACTICE OF THE WEEK.

MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY DAD

IS AWESOME.

HE'S REALLY MY BEST FRIEND, AND

HE'S BEEN MY BIGGEST SUPPORTER

WHEN YOU GOT IN, WERE YOU

PLAYIN' LINEBACKER OR WERE YOU

PLAYIN' NICKEL?

YEAH, THAT'S THE FUNNY THING,

I WAS PLAYIN' NICKEL.

FROM THE TIME I WAS RELEASED

FROM THE JETS IN MAY UP UNTIL

WHEN I GOT SIGNED HERE I WAS

PRETTY NEGATIVE.

AND HE WAS REALLY RESPONSIBLE

FOR KEEPING ME ON TRACK.

YOU GOTTA BE A SOLDIER, MAN,

AND JUST DO YOUR THING.

BUFFALO SOLDIER.

I HEARD THAT SOMEBODY

COMMENTED THAT ON INSTAGRAM THE

OTHER DAY.

I LOVE IT, MAN.

IT SOUNDS GREAT.

I GOT A TON OF NICKNAMES NOW.

THEY'RE CALLING-- RAMBO'S THE

ONE THAT'S STICKIN' NOW, THOUGH.

THIS IS IT, LAST PRE-SEASON

GAME.

I KNOW, WE GOTTA GO OUT WITH

A BANG.

I THINK IF YOU GIVE

EVERYTHING YOU'VE GOT, THE

WORLD'S GONNA SEE JIMMY CIARLO

AT HIS BEST.

THANKS, DAD.

ALL RIGHT, GOOD LUCK

SATURDAY, I LOVE YOU.

LOVE YOU, BYE.

TALK TO YOU LATER.

Narrator: PUSHING THEMSELVES

IS WHAT PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALL

PLAYERS DO.

THEY ALWAYS FIND A WAY TO CRANK

THINGS UP.

TIGHT END ZACH DAVIDSON IS

27 YEARS OLD.

HE HAS ONE CAREER RECEPTION.

THIS SUMMER, HE'S DETERMINED TO

GET HIS GAME IN GEAR.

I DON'T THINK THERE'S A

DAY I DON'T RIDE MY BIKE.

WHEEEE.

I HAVE MY ROUTES AND MY LITTLE

JUMPS, AND I CUT IN AND OUT OF

THE TREES.

I REALLY DOVE INTO IT AND

STARTED RIDING MORE AND MORE

JUST REALIZING WHAT IT WAS DOING

FOR MY LOWER BODY ON TOP OF

PLAYING FOOTBALL.

IT'S A VERY STRUCTURED WAY TO

GET A FLUSH IN MY LOWER BODY,

JUST TO PREPARE ME FOR THE NEXT

TRAINING DAY.

Narrator: WHEN YOU'RE TRYING

TO EARN A PLACE ON A TEAM,

ANYTHING THAT GIVES YOU A LEG UP

IS WORTH TRYING.

COMING OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL, I

WAS THE PUNTER FOR THE TEAM.

I MADE THE MOST OUT OF MY

OPPORTUNITY THERE.

WAS ABLE TO GET A DIVISION II

SCHOLARSHIP TO GO PUNT FOR

CENTRAL MISSOURI.

ZACH DAVIDSON IS THEIR PUNTER

AND HE HITS A BOMB INTO THE

WIND.

THE STAFF SAW A LOT OF

OPPORTUNITY IN ME AS AN ATHLETE

TO GO PLAY TIGHT END.

PLAYING IN THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL

LEAGUE.

I'M STILL JUST VERY GRATEFUL

TO BE HERE AND STILL WORKING TO

BE THE BEST I CAN BE.

Narrator: JUST HOW

COMPETITIVE ARE NFL PLAYERS?

LET ME SPELL IT OUT FOR YOU.

EASY, EASY, I'M GOIN' EASY

LEVEL.

ALRIGHT.

SPELL, "LIASON."

THAT AIN'T RIGHT.

L-E-L-I-E.

WHAT THE HECK.

SPELL, "HALLUCINATION."

H-O-, NO, H-U-L-L-A-NATION.

THAT WAS RIGHT?

OH!

ONOMATOPOEIA.

O-M-N-O...

I STILL GOT THE "POEIA"

LEFT?

I KNOW IT'S P-O-E-I-A.

YOU OUT.

YOU LOST!

YOUR WORD IS "APPETITE."

A-P-P-E-T-I-T-E!

GOOD JOB!

WHAT'S THE?

WANT ME TO USE IT IN A

SENTENCE?

YES.

OUR NEIGHBOR BROUGHT US

COOKIES.

N-E-I-G-H-B-O-R.

Narrator: RUNNING BACK

FRANK GORE JR. IS MAKING BEELINE

FOR THE ROSTER.

HEY, THAT'S SO GOOD FRANK!

THAT'S SO GOOD, FRANK!

ATTA BABY, ATTA BABY.

Narrator: HE'S FOLLOWING IN

HIS FATHER'S FOOTSTEPS.

FRANK GORE SR.

PLAYED IN THE NFL FOR 16

SEASONS, INCLUDING ONE IN

BUFFALO WITH JOSH ALLEN.

IT IS KIND OF CRAZY TO THINK

I SHARED A BACKFIELD WITH HIS

DAD NOT TOO LONG AGO.

AND NOW TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY

TO SHARE IT WITH HIM.

YOU KNOW, HE'S ONE OF THOSE GUYS

THAT'S JUST A FOOTBALL PLAYER.

FRANK IS A NORTH-SOUTH

RUNNER.

HE CAN MAKE YOU MISS.

AND THE APPLE DIDN'T FALL FAR

FROM THE TREE.

HIS DAD WAS ONE OF THE BEST AT

JUST SEEING THAT HOLE AND

FILLING IT.

HE HAS JUST RUN INTO NFL

HISTORY, THE THIRD ALL-TIME

LEADING RUSHER IN PRO FOOTBALL

HISTORY.

MY DAD IS LIKE MY BEST

FRIEND.

JOINED RIGHT NOW ON THE SET

BY FRANK GORE AND HIS SON,

FRANK.

FIRST OF ALL, CONGRATULATIONS,

FRANK, WE APPRECIATE YOU.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK

YOU, THANK YOU!

HE'S NOT THAT HARD ON ME, AS

PEOPLE'D EXPECT.

MY MOM IS ACTUALLY THE TOUGH

ONE.

BUT, LIKE, WE TALK ABOUT

ANYTHING LITERALLY LIKE A BEST

FRIEND WHERE WE CAN PICK UP THE

PHONE FOR ANYTHING.

WE TALK FOOTBALL, WE TALK

BASKETBALL, WE TALK ANYTHING IN

THIS WORLD.

SO I'M REALLY APPRECIATIVE OF MY

DAD AND THE RELATIONSHIP WE

HAVE.

SO HE JUST TEXTS ME EVERYDAY

LIKE, "BALL OUT."

AND THAT'S WHAT I COME TO DO.

I THINK FRANK'S HAD A GOOD

PRESEASON.

YES, SIR!

AND JUST SEEING WHERE HE CAN

TAKE IT AND JUST KIND OF

CONTINUE TO BUILD OFF WHAT HE'S

DONE.

FRANKIE G.

HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO, ONES

ARE UP, LET'S GO!

TAG OFF TEMPO, HERE WE GO.

IN AND OUT, LET GO, IN AND OUT.

WORK OUR, HEY, WORK OUR

COVERAGES HERE NOW.

HERE WE GO!

DIMEBAG, DIMEBAG!

GOOD JOB, CHRIS HESS!

GOOD JOB, BOYS!

THANKS FOR GOING MUSTACHES

WITH ME, GUYS.

THANKS FOR COMMUNICATING.

YOU WERE, LIKE, TWO WEEKS

LATE, BRO.

WE ALL HAD MUSTACHES, AND JOSH

WAS LIKE, "I SWEAR I'M GOING TO

DO IT TOMORROW."

"I'M GONNA DO IT MONDAY."

A WEEK AND A HALF LATER.

"NO, I'M GONNA DO IT WEDNESDAY."

"I'M GONNA DO IT SUNDAY."

PARTNER.

AHH, GUYS, I FEEL LIKE POOP.

LIKE WHAT?

I FEEL LIKE POOP.

I FEEL LIKE EVERYTHING I DO

IS WRONG.

IT'S ONE OF THOSE DAYS.

YEAH, FOOTBALL FEELS LIKE

THAT SOMETIMES.

Narrator: ACTUALLY,

CASEY ROGERS ALWAYS TRIES TO DO

THE RIGHT THING.

HE EVEN HELPS RESCUE DOGS IN

DANGER OF BEING EUTHANIZED FIND

FOSTER HOMES.

SO THIS IS WHO, NILA?

THIS IS NILA, YOU READY?

AM I TAKING HER IN?

YOU'RE TAKING NILA.

WELCOME TO BUFFALO, NILA.

HERE'S YOUR BABY GIRL.

ALL RIGHT, WE GOT MR. HANK.

HANK'S BEEN PEEING EVERYWHERE

BUT THE GRASS.

YOU EVEN PEED ON MY SHOE.

IT'S A ROUGH START, BUT IT'S ALL

GOOD.

PICKUP FOR YOUR WIFE.

THEY'RE PRETTY WARM.

WHERE WE GOING, IN THE GRASS?

IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT TYPE OF

DAY THEY HAD OR WHAT TYPE OF DAY

YOU HAD, WHEN YOU WALK IN THE

DOOR, THEY'RE JUST HAPPY TO BE

AROUND.

CAMP, FOOTBALL IN GENERAL, IS A

STRESSFUL, STRESSFUL LIFESTYLE.

SO ANY TIME YOU CAN GET AROUND

SOMETHING YOU'RE PASSIONATE

ABOUT, OTHER THAN FOOTBALL AND

HELP OUT, IT'S MY FAVORITE THING

TO DO.

YOU'RE TAKIN' HERSHEY?

SHE SMELLS LIKE CHOCOLATE.

IF YOU GUYS EVER NEED ANYONE TO

LET HIM OUT, YOU KNOW...

Narrator: THE FINAL PRESEASON

GAME IS TWO DAYS AWAY, CUTS IN

LESS THAN A WEEK.

GENERAL MANAGER BRANDON BEANE IS

CONSIDERING ALL THE

IMPLICATIONS.

JUST THOUGHT I'D RUN THROUGH

OUR ROSTER HERE.

IT'S TOUGH WITH THIS FOUR

QUARTERBACK THING BUT I THINK

MITCH HAS HAD A BETTER PRESEASON

THAN HE HAD A YEAR AGO.

IT'S JUST, UM, MORE CALM

AND COMFORTABLE, AND YOU CAN

FEEL HIS PRESENCE.

THIS IS OUR FIRST CAMP WITH

MIKE.

AND LOVE MIKE.

OBVIOUSLY, HE'S PLAYED WITH US A

LOT.

SMART DUDE.

BOTH OF THEM CAN DO IT AND

IT'S TOUGH, AND I'M KIND OF

EXCITED TO SEE WHAT SHANE CAN

DO.

I AGREE WITH YOU ON MITCH.

I FEEL-- I FEEL IT MORE THIS

YEAR, THE CONFIDENCE AND JUST

THE PRESENCE.

TO ME, THAT'S THE BIGGEST

STRUGGLE WITH IT.

FEELS LIKE HE'S PLAYING FREER.

ALL RIGHT, RUNNING BACKS.

SO, YOU KNOW, FRANK'S GOING TO

GET A NUMBER OF CARRIES.

YOU KNOW, HE OBVIOUSLY PLAYED

GOOD WEEK 1, AND THEN LAST

WEEK, I THOUGHT HE STILL DID

REALLY GOOD THINGS, BUT...

MISSED A PASSED THROW AND

FUMBLED, BUT HE'S BEEN GOOD.

TIGHT ENDS, YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY,

WE KNOW ZACH, GREAT DUDE, BRINGS

GREAT ENERGY.

SEE IF HE GETS SOME INLINE

BLOCKING.

I THINK THAT'S WHAT HE'S GONNA

HAVE TO, YOU KNOW, HE KNOWS

THAT.

ALL RIGHT, DEFENSE.

GIVE JIMMY CIARLO ANOTHER

CHANCE.

HE'S OBVIOUSLY STILL LEARNING

THE DEFENSE, IT'S-- IN FAIRNESS

TO HIM, SO.

HE ALSO DOESN'T LEAVE.

HE'S HERE THE WHOLE TIME.

AT NIGHT, HE'S IN THE--

WEST POINT GUY'S GOT A GOOD

THEY JUST DON'T KNOW MY NAME.

Narrator: GETTING TO THE

HEART OF IT.

KNOWING WHAT REALLY MATTERS

TAKES A CERTAIN KIND OF WISDOM.

WHO BETTER THAN A PAIR OF

HALL OF FAMERS TO GUIDE YOU?

IT'S GREAT TO BE ABLE TO

CATCH UP, APPRECIATE YOU GUYS

AND YOUR TIME, MAN.

WE EXCITED ABOUT THIS YEAR

MAN.

SO ARE WE.

YEAH, SO WE GOT SOME YOUNG

GUYS, MAN, THAT THEY'RE GOING TO

NEED TO PLAY EARLY AND STEP UP

HERE FOR US.

YES.

I JUST REMEMBER AS A ROOKIE

TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE GAME.

FIRST OF ALL, TRYING TO GET

EVERYTHING TO SLOW DOWN.

THE PHYSICALITY, THE SPEED.

LIKE, I REMEMBER SCOTTIE PIPPEN

WAS ONE OF THE GUYS FOR ME.

I GOTTA FIGURE THIS GUY OUT

BECAUSE HE HAD ALL THE TRICKS.

YEAH.

HE HAD ALL OF THOSE MOVES AND

LIKE, REF, YOU DON'T SEE THIS?

AND BACK IN THE DAY, THE

REFEREES USED TO TELL YOU, SHUT

UP AND PLAY.

REALLY?

YEAH.

LIKE THEY'D TELL YOU TO STOP

CRYING AND PLAY.

ARE YOU GUYS BELIEVERS IN THE

LEADERSHIP HAS TO COME FROM THE

PLAYERS?

NO.

I THINK IT CAN COME FROM THE

COACH.

BECAUSE YOUR LEADER IS NOT

ALWAYS YOUR BEST PLAYER.

YOU COME ACROSS ALL KIND OF

LEADERS, MAN.

I MEAN, I'VE SEEN THE GREATEST

FREAKING POWER FORWARD I'VE EVER

SEEN IN MY LIFE, TIM DUNCAN.

I BARELY HEARD HIM SAY A FEW

WORDS.

IT'S ALL ABOUT HIS PREPARATION.

BEING PREPARED IS LEADERSHIP.

HOW YOU PREPARE YOURSELF IS

LEADERSHIP.

YOU FALL IN LOVE WITH THE

PREPARATION, THE PROCESS, AND IT

BECOMES ALMOST MANIACAL, A

LITTLE BIT.

BUT--

YOU NEED A LITTLE BIT OF THAT

THOUGH.

YEAH!

WITH THE BEST TEAMS THAT YOU'VE

BEEN ON, GIVE ME THE COMMON

THREADS.

WHEN, COLLECTIVELY, YOU ALL

UNDERSTAND THAT, ALL RIGHT, I

KNOW MY ROLE, EVERYBODY KNOWS

THEIR ROLE, AND YOU STAY WITHIN

THAT, AND DON'T TRY TO PLAY

OUTSIDE OF THAT, YOU HAVE A HELL

OF A TEAM.

YES, I FEEL LIKE MAYBE I CAN

DO MORE FOR THIS TEAM, BUT

THAT'S NOT MY ROLE RIGHT NOW.

MM-HMM.

THE BEST TEAMS I'VE BEEN ON

IS EVERYBODY UNDERSTOOD THEIR

ROLE AND THEIR WILLINGNESS TO DO

IT.

YEAH.

MM-HMM.

ALL RIGHT, HERE WE GO.

HERE WE GO!

OKAY, HEY, I KNOW TOMORROW'S AN

IMPORTANT NIGHT FOR A LOT OF YOU

GUYS, RIGHT?

LISTEN, MAN, TOMORROW'S GONNA GO

WELL.

IT IS, YOU GOTTA BELIEVE THAT.

AS YOU GO TO BED TONIGHT, MAN.

YOU GOTTA BELIEVE AND SEE IT AND

BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART THAT IT'S

GONNA GO GREAT.

YOU'VE WORKED HARD, YOU'RE

PREPARED.

IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY.

AND THERE'S A LOT GUYS AROUND

THIS LEAGUE, EVERY YEAR, WHO

MAKE A TEAM JUST BASED ON

PRESEASON GAME 3.

AND SO MY ENCOURAGEMENT TO YOU

IS, GO FOR IT TOMORROW.

RIGHT?

TEE IT UP AND GO FOR IT.

YOU GOT NOTHING TO LOSE.

YOU'VE PUT IN ALL THE WORK.

YOU'VE PUT IN ALL THE

PREPARATION.

GO OUT THERE TOMORROW AND LET IT

GO, MAN.

FLY AROUND, HAVE FUN, SHOW US

YOUR PERSONALITY, SHOW THE

LEAGUE YOUR PERSONALITY, MAN.

THAT'S GONNA BE FUN TO WATCH.

I CAN'T WAIT, I REALLY CAN'T

WAIT.

BEYOND THAT, AND THIS IS MY MAIN

MESSAGE TO YOU GUYS TONIGHT.

THE LAST TIME WE'LL BE TOGETHER

IN THIS TYPE OF SETTING, RIGHT?

THIS, TO ME, IS THE MOST

IMPORTANT THING I CAN EVER SHARE

WITH YOU GUYS.

IS THAT, YES, YOU ARE FOOTBALL

PLAYERS, BUT I WANT YOU TO

REMEMBER MORE THAN THAT, THAT

YOU ARE WAY MORE THAN JUST A

FOOTBALL PLAYER.

YOU BRING SO MUCH MORE TO THE

TABLE THAN WHAT YOU DO JUST ON

THAT FOOTBALL FIELD.

NEVER, EVER, EVER FORGET THAT.

AND I'M SO PROUD OF THIS GROUP

MAN.

SO PROUD OF YOU GUYS.

TOMORROW NIGHT, MAN, YOU GO FOR

IT, KNOWING THAT YOU'VE GOT

BRIGHT FUTURES.

THAT YOU'RE WINNERS.

Narrator: EVEN IN SUN-SOAKED

FLORIDA, THOSE FROM THE NORTH

KNOW THE HARD TRUTH.

WINTER IS COMING.

WHO WILL

THE NORTH REMEMBER?

CUT DOWN DAY LOOMING ON

TUESDAY.

IT'S BELIEVED THERE ARE MAYBE

FOUR TO SIX SPOTS THAT COULD BE

EARNED.

THERE ARE CERTAINLY SOME GUYS, A

LOT OF GUYS, WHO COULD MAKE THIS

ROSTER BASED ON THEIR

PERFORMANCE TONIGHT.

IT'S THE WORST POSSIBLE THREE

DAYS COMING UP WHERE THEY HAVE

TO SAY GOODBYE TO SOME REALLY

GOOD FOOTBALL PLAYERS.

IT'S THE LAST CHANCE TO IMPRESS

SEAN McDERMOTT AND

BRANDON BEANE.

SO HE'S THE GM.

HE'S THE GUY THAT PAYS THE GUYS

GETS THE GUYS, AND LOSES THE

GUYS.

HE MAKES THE DECISIONS.

HEY VINCENT, JOSH IS OUT THERE.

THOUGHTS IS EAGER TO PROVE HE'S

WORTH A ROSTER SPOT.

WHO CAN PROVIDE THAT DEPTH--

JA'MARCUS INGRAM HAS PLAYED

PLENTY OF MEANINGFUL SNAPS.

SET OURSELVES UP FOR A DOUBLE

DIP.

GOOD WORK, MAN.

GET THROWN OUT OF THE GAME.

HE JUST THREW A PUNCH AT

ZACH DAVIDSON.

YEAH, LUCKY HE MISSED OR ELSE

HE PROBABLY WOULD HAVE HURT HIS

HAND.

YOU PUNCH SOMEONE WITH A HELMET

ON.

GENERALLY, YOU'RE THE ONE THAT

TAKES THE BRUNT OF IT BECAUSE

YOU INJURE YOUR HAND.

BUECHELE UNDER CENTER.

RECEIVER ON THE LEFT, BUECHELE

BACK TO PASS GOING FADE BALL TO

SHAVERS WHO PULLED IT IN WITH

BUECHELE BACK TO PASS, HAS

ROLL TO HIS LEFT TO ESCAPE

PRESSURE, PUMPS, FIRES, AND HE'S

OF BOUNDS.

180, WE'RE SET!

QUICK HITTER, BUECHELE TO

WILKERSON.

IT'S A FIRST DOWN FOR 12 YARDS

AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO

HURRY.

THEY GET THE BALL BACK TO THE

LINE OF SCRIMMAGE, AND IT'S

BOBBLED, AND THE CLOCK CONTINUES

TO RUN.

THEY SPIKE IT WITH ONE SECOND

LEFT.

THE REF COULDN'T SPOT THE

BALL.

HE FUMBLED IT.

WE'RE AT ONE SECOND, ONE
