Something I noticed - Reuben Foster wearing a big brace on his knee. Doesn’t look like Bryce Love is wearing anything on the knee.

Watching Alex Smith - he’s zipping the ball. Footwork seems normal.

Alex Smith participating in 7v7 but not 11v11

videos and more on his twitter feed

Heard some speculation in the media that Logan Thomas could be our guy at TE and really step up.


We'll see. TE is a crapshoot. Too bad there's no preseason, I'd like to see what Moss can do. He may not even make the team because we'll definitely keep 3 other TEs in Sprinkle, Thomas and Rodgers. Hale Hentges is even in the mix for another spot.

Ron Rivera said he wants his team to play fast and he was disappointed at times with the tempo. Saw some good things too but he wants his guys aware of the situation and players to know their assignments.

Practice is ending and Ron Rivera is dressing down his team for standing around confused during portions of drills. Delivered a loud “get in your book and study”

This much is obvious - D line depth is much better than O line depth

Troy Apke has gotten a ton of work with first team defense paired with Landon Collins.

I imagine Ron Rivera yelling at you to "get in your book and study!" sounds and is received a little bit different than Jay.

Interesting to hear about Apke. Know he's athletic for sure. Love hearing the reports about Haskins. Kid wants it and that is great to hear.

I have a feeling Thomas will surprise people this fall. I know there is only a really small sample of Thomas's playing time as TE but his highlights shows how athletic he is and he isn't afraid of physical contacts. This along with the new TE coach who coached Olsen, hopefully this will translate well on the field.

"In the first practice open to the media, one improvement jumped out under new coach Ron Rivera: There was more crispness and urgency during practice than in years past. Players hustled between drills; that wasn’t always the case in previous years. Safety Landon Collins said there was more intensity than last year. Also, at the end, coach Ron Rivera told the players a list of areas he wanted to see improved, including attention to detail. Then he told the rookies: Get more in the playbook."

I like hearing that Rivera is pushing the players to change the lazy, slow pace, no sense of urgency attitude that existed under Gruden.
