mungmee168 Former Indianapolis Colts linebacker E.J. Speed ​​is committed to his new team, the Houston Texans.

E.J. Speed, 29, revealed he has changed his mind about C.J. Stroud after the former Indianapolis Colts player signed a one-year deal with the Houston Texans to lead the new club to its goals, according to a podcast with the 23-year-old quarterback. mungmee168

Speed ​​said last offseason that he intended to destroy C.J. for the rest of his career, but now that the 29-year-old linebacker is teammates with the young quarterback, he’s changed his mind about it.

“I actually knew C.J. before he came into the league,” Speed ​​said. “C.J. and I talk outside of football. We talk about shit all the time. It’s just two people talking about shit. Nothing more than listening to podcasts and my own shit. I just dumped another quarterback who was cocky and talked a lot of shit with another quarterback in the same draft class who did the same thing.”

After six seasons with the Colts, Speed ​​said he chose the Texans over the Dallas Cowboys or San Francisco 49ers, saying facing his old team twice next year would add a little spice to the division.

‘It’s going to be awesome,’ Speed ​​said. ‘Playing with guys like JT (Jonathan Taylor) and AR (Anthony Richardson), I’ve played with them in practice all the time, but never really got to play with them, so it’s going to be fun. I love the Lucas Oil, I love the fans, I love Indianapolis, just giving me a chance as a Division II kid in the fifth round.’

‘For some reason, it’s over and now I’m in Houston. They gave me a chance, so it’s time to give them everything I’ve got. In this situation, going back to Indy, playing for my players is a lot of fun. They’ll tell you the same thing. I’m a fighter. I talk a lot of trash in practice. Now I can prove myself in the game. ‘

Speed ​​also revealed that head coach DeMeco Ryans was a big reason he decided to sign with the Texans and will bolster a linebacker corps led by Aziz Al-Shaair, Henry Tutoo and Christian Harris. 

‘Obviously I play them a couple of times a year, so I know their goals. Their goal is to win the Super Bowl. They’ve got a great team. They’ve got a great rookie team this year. They’ve got a great veteran team this year. They’ve almost done what they need to do. But everybody knows Sunday is the only time you can prove anything. You have to prove it on Sunday.’ ( mungmee168 )
