DAY 7
– No Coach Flores availability today.
– Dreary, cloudy. Menace of rain.
– Practicing outside. No bubble time.
– Loose warmup going on…might miss 9:40 prompt practice start for first time?
– RAIN!
– Practice starts with Special Teams. We also have a crew of Officials.
– Near Field work today.
– Michael Dieter, Shaq Calhoun start practice as the two guards, once again.
– The two PUP guys, plus Ballage, Allen, Kiko, Grant, Mills OUT. Albert Wilson, scheduled day off.
– Stretch
– QB warmup ….clean. WR, OL as well. Professional warmup here today.
– Josh Rosen is on 2nd team for 2nd straight practice….so there’s that.
– Ominous weather threatening to escalate from a lite drizzle, to biblical downpour.
– Uneventful start to this practice, but Charles Harris….let’s just say he is not great at any drill.
– QB’s warming up DB’s with what can only be called the INT. Drill. Near perfect in that regard.
– 7v7
– Fitzpatrick with two very nice deliveries. Stills on the comeback route. O’Leary on a cross.
– Josh Rosen grabs two essentially worthless reps. A quick out, and a check down.
– OL drilling assignments. Jesse Davis delivers Aces. Picks up Tyrone Holmes, picks up Terril Hanks. Looks natural on his kick slide.
– 11v11
– 11v11 now….Fitzy with some sharp work…then…defense sends a disguised blitz, he sees it….go route to Preston Williams…just out of reach….he tips it….Nik Needham picks it off. Bad luck, but great stuff from Fitzy.
– Some special teams work here. Going to be interesting who has spots on “teams” for preseason game 1. They are cross training a bunch of guys in different spots.
– Watching a walk thru of some offensive play calls in the install portion of practice. Interesting stuff.
– 11v11
– Fitzy, play action pass miss on the deep flag route to Parker, coverage was there, Bobby McCain looked to be at a considerable disadvantage against DeVante Parker.
– Josh Rosen might complete 400 passes to backs if he starts this year. His reps are becoming boring. Too many check downs.
– Myles Gaskin might be emerging as the 3rd team back? Maybe? Who cares? I think some game action will help the guys behind Ballage and Drake, distinguish themselves.
– Special Teams work. Trenton Irwin and Kenyan Drake get some work as Punt Returners.
– Fitzy tries Gesicki on TJ in the end zone from the 5 yard line. Pass break up by TJ.
– Jerome Baker beats Sterup badly …sack.
– Josh Rosen to DeVante Parker jump ball in end zone. TD…on McTyer.
– 14 second drill from the 44, trying to gain yardage for a FG. 1st team goes 0-2. Stills completion runs out clock, incomplete on 2nd try.
– This coaching staff really likes to drill game situations.
– Now from the opposite 45 yard line. 2 for 2. Big gains to set up under 47 yard field goals.
– Practice is over.
– Defensive Assistants hold court.
Practice MVP: DeVante Parker, Jerome Baker, Jesse Davis
Struggled: Charles Harris, Zach Sterup, Josh Rosen
