What our NFL Nation reporters heard and saw today.
Ruling NFL MVP Lamar Jackson returned to Baltimore Ravens practice after missing the previous two days with a groin injury. He wasnt especially sharp throwing the ball in his very first practice since Friday, but he moved around well. “He had a great practice.
Dallas Cowboys practices are primarily quiet. In the past, music was a continuous in Jason Garretts practices to assist get the players accustomed to what video games will be like and bring some energy to the exercise. The influx in music for me, in the practices that Ive had in the past, is theres a purpose for it.
Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints beginning offense had by far their best performance to date Monday, consisting of two TD passes to Michael Thomas to go a perfect 2-for-2 in simulated two-minute drills at the end of practice. Brees and Sanders had their finest connection yet Monday, and it wouldve been even much better if Sanders had held on to a diving catch on another downfield pass.
2 Related New York Giants coach Joe Judge continues to ride his group hard. This time it was a 2 1/2 hour padded practice in the 90-plus-degree heat on Monday. Judge even rallied the group and had some choice words for them (quite much all expletives) prior to the final couple of durations. He wanted to ensure they understood the “speed and emphasis of the drill” they were about to run. Later on, Judge said his team worked tough and ended up with strength. This is what he demands of his gamers in training camp. Its next level from the previous routines, and just time will tell if it pays dividends.– Jordan Raanan.
A Las Vegas Raiders authorities stated the team switching from padded practices with media seeing to closed walk-throughs on Sunday and Monday was not associated with COVID-19 concerns, regardless of a laboratory in New Jersey producing 77 “incorrect favorable” results affecting 11 teams, which altered practice schedules. The Raiders, like every other NFL team, utilize the same company, BioReference, for screening. The laboratory the Raiders samples go to is in Burbank, California, and there were no reports of abnormalities or concerns there. The Raiders will now practice on Tuesday and Wednesday, which had actually initially been arranged off days.– Paul Gutierrez.
Kansas City Chiefs protective tackle Chris Jones set a 2020 objective of being the NFLs protective player of the year. “Thats something Ive always done throughout my career is set my requirements high,” Jones said. He predicted in 2018 he would lead the league in sacks.
Washington quarterback Dwayne Haskins had a strong day in the two-minute drill, culminating in a long goal pass to Terry McLaurin. Coach Ron Rivera liked how Haskins dealt with the drill, taking what was readily available to begin and then getting more aggressive as they moved the ball. “He did a nice job,” Rivera stated.
Denver Broncos coach Vic Fangio stated after Mondays practice that the group has already had more “soft tissue” injuries over the previous eight days of practice than it had in all of in 2015s OTAs, training camp and preseason games integrated. The Broncos had 11 players miss Mondays practice alone with numerous of those, including large receivers KJ Hamler, Tim Patrick and Juwann Winfree, linebacker Todd Davis in addition to cornerbacks DeVante Bausby and Michael Ojemudia to opt for defensive take on Mike Purcell each held out of practice due to hamstring, calf, thigh or groin injuries. Fangio stated Mondays exercise was likewise originally scheduled to be a cushioned practice, but he altered it to look more like a hectic walk-through rather.– Jeff Legwold.
The outcome were near-flawless practices over the weekend. He finished 10-of-13 passes throughout 11-on-11 durations on Saturday and followed that up with an 11-of-15 day Sunday that included a 50-yard TD to Davante Adams, a 45-yarder to Jake Kumerow and a game-winning field goal drive in the 2-minute drill. The Packers practiced Monday at jog-through speed.
On Monday, the previous cornerback made a one-handed interception of a Carson Wentz pass in the end zone and took off up the field, capping the play with a forward topple at midfield. He has been a camp standout, doing much of his best work in the red zone.
Bruce Irvin has a new label in the Seahawks locker room as he begins his 2nd stint with the group: “OG.” At 32 and entering his ninth season, he does not desire to hear anything about being over the hill. When he jumped over a taking on dummy in a recent practice, Irvin was attempting to show he still has the athleticism of his more youthful years. “I just checked out all these aspects of hes old, hes lost a step,” Irvin said. “Its just insane to me because Ive never ever– knock on wood– Ive never had any insane injuries, I dont miss out on games. … I still got some juice in me.” So, was that stunt the reason Irvin needed to remain for a couple of days with what Pete Carroll called a small problem with his hip-flexor? “That OG term implies a great deal of things,” Irvin said with a laugh. “You got ta take care of your OGs, man. Thats all that was about. Im good.”– Brady Henderson.
