“Well, there's. It's always about the confidence you have in your hands. And that's one thing I tell people when you watch receivers, there are some receivers that are faster when the ball's in the air. And it's because of the confidence in their hands. They know if they can get just a small fingertip on the ball, that there's a chance to catch it. And and a good chance at that. And Jacoby's always had that radius that is next to none.”
