OL Rob Hunt

(How has the offseason been for you and why did you choose to participate in all the OTAs?) – “The offseason has been good, trying to get better. I think I’m going into the right direction, some things I need to work on, but offseason is what it’s for. It’s to get better at the game and try to do something you haven’t done before. That’s that and I’m here, I’m playing on the team, I’m here. So that’s why I’m here. That’s why I’m at OTAs.”

(How important is it to you to get a contract extension before you guys start the regular season?) – “I leave that up to the people up front and my agents. Of course, I got some say so in it, but I’m not worried about it right now. That’s the least of my worries right now. I would like a Super Bowl or something like that, a playoff win. So I’m kind of worried about that and perfecting what I can do to be better. I’m worried about that right now.”

(Have you been in talks with OL Connor Williams and would it be nice to have your center back next to you, alongside you?) – “Connor (Williams) is dealing with his situation how he deals with it. I’ve talked to him, went to dinner for his birthday, so he’s good. Connor is good.”

(There has been a lot of excitement in the area with the Heat and the Panthers. I’m wondering if you’ve had people come up to you with a smile and say that it’s you guys’ turn next?) – “Not much, but that would be nice. That would be really nice so hopefully. We got a really good team, a talented team. If we can figure it out, I think we’ll have a shot.”

(How much of that excitement do you feel just walking around, going to the grocery store? Is it tangible?) – “Yes, you can feel it. South Florida fans are big time when things are going well. I’m not saying that, I’m just saying – I’m just saying when things are going well we got a really big fan base and I love to see it. It’s good to see all the fans out there, and hopefully we can keep this train rolling and help out with that for South Florida.”

(Where are you in terms of putting the Pro Bowl on your priority list? If at all, where is that?) – “As an individual that is a goal of mine, to be that. I thought I played well enough last year, but I guess I didn’t so I got to try to up it up this year and play a little better, and hopefully it works out. If it doesn’t then I’ll keep busting my ass and try to get it. I think I’m a hell of a player in this league, and I think it’s in the future hopefully.”

(It seems like you’re on the radar for that for a lot of people.)  – “I would like to be. I think I play the game the right way.”

(How do you guys get better against the run? Is that just a chemistry thing, just a commitment thing? The average was there, but the attempts weren’t.) –“We just got to keep going at it. We’ve got so many weapons that you can do so many things with. We got #10 (Tyreek Hill) and #17 Jaylen Waddle #11 (Cedrick Wilson Jr.) and now #3 (Chosen Anderson) and all of those guys. So you’ve got a lot of weapons, and they are going to use them in different ways. Once we got it rolling at times, it rolled, and then sometimes it didn’t, and sometime #10 and #17 was rolling, and sometimes they weren’t. It’s just a mix, we’ve just got to mix it up and go from there.”
