And I think appreciating the level of play that the tight end position is at is the best thing that we should do.

Speak to me. Speak to you. You know, I think Travis is done. I think he runs a fantastic podcast. He's incredibly humble and he talks about tight ends in the right way. He talks about people in the right way and he treats everyone with respect and a positive attitude. So I think Travis does such a great job. He highlights the tight end position.

I think, you know, there's more spotlights on him because he's dating one of the most famous people in the world. And I think, you know, There's all those media headlines that just take photos of him when he's out in the ocean and stuff like that, so you just see Travis a bunch. But, you know, I don't think that bothers or rubs any of the tight ends the wrong way.

Yeah, I don't know. But, you know, I think I got into one of those TMZ photos this past year because I was hanging out with McCaffrey and his fiancee, Olivia. And there was a TMZ guy on a boat in Cabo. And I was like, wow, I've never really had to experience that before. And I just waved at the guy. And I was like, hey, man, hope you're having a great day. Hope you get your photo.

To an extent, you'd say that like there are games this past you look at where I've had a couple games right 15 targets for 130 to 150 yards. And I had a game where I had one catch for one year. And while one catch for one yard is not my favorite. When we win games, it's you know, I don't get too upset about it. My wife will tell me that I need to go ask for more targets, which I love her for that.

But really, you know, the way that our offense is, we have a lot of mouths to feed out there. And what I really love about my offense is in the run game, I get to be the tip of the spear a lot. And I get a lot of one on one stuff versus defensive ends, whether it's a pass pro game or the run game.

And I know that by what I put on tape consistently over the course of my career, there's not a lot of guys that could step in and be the tip of the spear like that.

Oh yeah. No, I love the ball. Like, trust me, I'm not, I'm not, I don't always like getting one target and one catch, but you know, whenever you can get in that, you know, four to six target range, I'm very happy with it. But like, I'm also, you know, I'm not gonna complain about Christian McCaffrey, Debo and IU getting the ball.

Like those are, you know, fantastic playmakers and I'm just going to do everything I can to help them out. No, really. Yeah. You talk about the contract stuff. Yeah. You can't, you don't look at the run blocking as like a statistic. But what you can look at is, hey, when George is on the front side of the run game, the run play average is 7.8 yards a carry.

And when he's not in, it's 3.2 yards a carry. And that is something that you can measure. And so I think my tape speaks for itself. And that run game speaks for itself.
