No Arrowheads there (Photo via KC Star)
If you hadn't already noticed, I updated the morning camp update post with a little more information. The only nugget worth looking at is from Bob Gretz that Tank Tyler was running with the first team defense at nose tackle.
Here are a few general highlights the afternoon practice:
- Derrick Johnson was held out of practice today
- There was no conditioning at the end of practice which brought cheers from the players
- Pioli, who seldom misses team workouts, was not on the field this afternoon
Very light on updates right now. We're still waiting for Bob Gretz to file his report. I will let you know when I update this. Nevermind - Mr. Gretz had his up before I even posted this.
