Press Pass | Albert Regis Media Zoom Call | 2026 NFL Draft

0:00So, believe it or not, it was my fiance's idea. She was like, hey, I've got this idea. Let's let her carry, you know, put on some cups. Let's let her crawl what she thinks. And I was like, whatever. Like, I don't really, not whatever in a bag in a way of like, I don't care. I'm like, sure. I'm like, why not? And then I go and play the game. And then her family's in town. So they all did it. And I'm watching in the background. And at every time they're like, she went to Jacksonville. She went to Jacksonville. And I was like, well, since the end of the season, I've been saying Duval is where I want to be. And she went three times. And then it was just like, well, I was like, God, it's written in the books. I was God never lies. He never does wrong. And I mean, I'm hearing it. It's just amazing. So why did you want to be in Duval? Is there a reason even before the Cup game? It's just, that's just where I want to be. Like, I just love to wear the team played, where the defense played. And I just knew it was a scheme that I could fit in.

1:01And then when I finally did a zoom with them and did one over some plays and got to understand their defense, I just knew that's where I wanted to be. And like, I knew I would guard best in this defense. I've been volunteered as tribute. So sorry, Emily. I'm asking one more on behalf of the entire media content. Tell us about and tell us about newsies and your musical prowess. Wow. So I was a male dancer. I learned how to tap dance from it. I have wheat. The male dancers had a tap dancing. Little gimmick for a bit. We were tap dancing with a broom. I wish I had the footage. Don't know where it is. But in this day and age, nothing is ever scrapped off the internet. So it's somewhere out there that someone will find it. But yeah, it helped me incredibly with my flexibility. And this goes back to the tap dancing. Nobody mentions how bad it hurts the next few days. My ankles were so beat up. It felt like someone ran them over with a sematra.

2:02But I was in so much pain. But my equal mobility now is amazing because of it. So it no complaints. Incredible. Thank you, Albert. Look forward to meeting you in person. Yes, ma'am. Thank you. Congratulations, Albert. Just, um, you can talk about it. A little bit, but in terms of the Jaguar, it's interesting to you. At what point did you know that they might be interested? And then just how do you fit in this deep? Yeah, so I spoke with some of my coaches and they would tell me how interested. And then I'm not going to say names, you know, keep it confidential. Just for their sake. I mean, I know I'm here. But, you know, just I like to keep something private still. And a scout, like I said, not going to mention names. He constantly will tell me how much they love me. And it always fight for me. And believe it or not, he texted me after words. And he's like, told you I fight. Absolutely means the most sorry somebody tried to call me.

3:02But it just absolutely means the most that. That he meant what he said from the get go. And like I'm just going to say, like that he meant what he said from the get go. And like I'm just so happy to be here. And then just how exactly do you feel like you fit in the Jaguar's defense? I view myself as a Swiss Army knife. Honestly, coming from multiple positions in high school. To the defense we played in very cap sound. But whatever you ask of me, I'm always willing to get it done and just be the best that I can be for the team. Awesome. Congrats again. Thank you. We'll go to Mark Long, then to Rachel. Congrats, Albert. Could you still pick up tap shoes and dance a number right now? Like you still got that skill in you? Honestly, I think I still do. It's not mine. That was my sophomore year high school.

4:02So I graduated. I graduated 2021. So I was my sophomore year. But I still remember some of the basic. Like things we did on the first day to introduce it. And every once in a while, I still go through the motions. Just to see if I can still do it. So I think if I was to put on some tap shoes. I think I could still do it might be rusty, but I think I still got it. And you said that obviously that gives you light feed. How much does that help to. In being a big man, you know, down in the trenches. Yeah, it's helped a lot. Like my junior year in high school was my really my breakout year. When I really started getting recruited and offered. And tap dancing helped with my ankle mobility so much. Like I just remember being able to play all over the field. From full back to H back to tied in to lining up at receiver. Like just my like just it's helped so much. And even till this day, like just constantly keeping my like active feed.

5:02And keeping like tap dancing one of those things where you have to have. You have to have control, but also not have control. It's a weird dynamic. And like it's just helped so much in my game. And I'm not like a broken record. And I'm sorry, but it's hard. God knows the words I'm trying to say. I just can't formulate how to say it. No, it's all good. Thank you. I can't wait to see your rookie video because you know they're going to. That's got to be that's going to be part of your rookie video. For sure. Yeah. I'm about to start practicing. Hey, Albert, congratulations. When we look at you getting drafted, obviously Nate got drafted just a little bit above you. Have you guys had a chance to have a quick text or anything? No, not yet. I'm going to hit him up. It's hard because as soon as I found out and I checked my phone. I had 80 messages came in all that once. And then I took me and my fiancee. We both took a social media break.

6:02This whole month because it was just social media's very toxic. And we wanted to enjoy life before starts getting busy again. One on a family trip. So so I got back on Instagram for today. And then I was like, and I deleted it already. So I was like, we'll look at this another day. I love that. How exciting is it for you to go to, you know, a new team and to have someone so familiar with you? And just what are the jaguars getting in Nate? They don't they don't get a dog. Amazing run blocker. He'll do whatever you need him in the past to do. Great locker room guy. I mean, he plays with a chip on the shoulder. I know mostly I know he started off as a walk on at Nebraska. So I mean, he knows he plays a different level of grit to him. This will be our last one, DRock. Hey, two things really quick.

7:03What size shoe do you have? Depends on the shoe wear. I can fit. It depends on how the shoe is. But 14 to about a 16. That's my size range, but in cleats, I have to wear usually a 16 or 17. Just because cleats were a little bit tighter. But usually it shows from a 14 to a 16. And you mentioned your fiance was her idea for the cup thing. What is your fiance's name? Kaylee. It's K-A-L-E-Y. Awesome. Thank you so much and congrats.
