Interesting element on kickoff drills: the rest of the team is doing stretching drills between the kickers and the other end zone. Just waiting for one of them to squib a line drive

How am I supposed to get any work done?

Hire "Horned Frogs".

I dont know how I feel about ES and Shawnbrey potentially returning kicks. I worry about them getting nicked up on special teams.

How did JWillis look returning kicks?

Best new jersey: special teams coach Dennis McKnight wearing No. 62. When he's giving demonstrations, he looks like he wants to be out there playing.

How did JWillis look returning kicks?

Wouldn't put too much stock in Sanders/McNeal returning kicks — very early.

Willis and the others looked fine — no returns. Just fielding punts while the punt protection teams worked on their alignments.

Yup. Well ... practice jersey.
Dude still looks like he could play.

Back to (full-team) kickoff drills. Cunningham's first kickoff went 7 yards deep in the end zone.

Szymanski's first went 8 yards deep. B.J. Lee fielded the kickoff and brought it out, getting to the sideline and turning the corner for a long return before being escorted out of bounds.

Cunningham's next kickoff to goal line.
