After position drills the team came together and conducted 8-on-8 drills.

The special teams period was highlighted by a fantastic block by WR/DB Nick Ward and followed by excellent returns from OS Chris Jackson and WR/DB Rob Carey.
HEAD COACH DOUG PLANK:
Impressions of the first day of camp:
"I was impressed with the tempo and the energy the team showed at both practices today. The unit we have is much closer to being a team at this point then we were last year at this time. This group is about winning a championship, and is willing to sacrifice for each other to achieve this goal."
