It’s Friday afternoon and today may be the last real practice that I get to see with tomorrow being Fan Appreciation Day. There is a practice tomorrow morning at 9:00am too, but with festivities kicking off at 12:30, I’m not sure how hard they will practice. It was another hot, humid afternoon here in Ashburn. … Read more
It was a little overcast this morning, so I figured with only one practice today that we’d be treated to a good one. I was wrong. Today was definitely the dullest practice this week and we were sloppy to boot. There were even referees there today, so we hought we were going to be treated … Read more
Well it’s another beautiful afternoon in Ashburn, and that can mean only one thing… a no-pads practice. The first half hour of practice this afternoon was actually pretty dull.

When the squad split into offense and defense, the cornerbacks, the receivers and the quarterbacks all got together to run some routes at full speed. A lot of my observations … Read more

It proved sound judgement as this afternoon was far and away the most heavily attended practice. Unfortunately, the players all came out without their pads on which meant that we … Read more
First practice of training camp and my first observation is, it is HOT in Ashburn today. Overcast skies and muggy conditions made for a very sticky morning practice. The offense and the defense split up almost immediately and went to separate fields. I went to the defense field because it was less crowded and a … Read more
The second practice of the day was considerably cooler thanks to some heavy rain between practices. In fact, I actually thought that practice might be cancelled. I arrived a little early to try and get a chance to talk to a few players but with very little success. (Little difficult without press passes) I did … Read more
