Is there even an “off season”??

A former NC State football player, now in the NFL, talks about gearing up for another season. How’s the off season and workouts been so far? How has he been recovering from an injury last year? There’s so much noise around the organization, how do they guys block all of that out? Is he cool with a Carolina guy running things there now? What is he expecting from this new players he’s working with? What’s this stretch been like for him? What’s the difference between winning and losing in the NFL; especially when addressing legit fans?
