He shares the shocking moment he learned about his trade from the Rams with no warning, and how a single phone call from Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes changed his entire outlook. Jared offers candid insights into Dan Campbell's unique leadership style, including team meetings where the coach simply plays music for 15 minutes straight. The conversation touches on mentorship in the quarterback room, the evolution of his preparation routines, and how approaching fatherhood is changing his perspective as a player.
