Training Camp for 7/29/2024

Mingo up

  • Feels good. Trying to capitalize on his opportunities. Camp is going well right now.
  • Working on things he know he needs to work on (feel + speed of the game) so he can be more comfortable going into year two
  • Feels like he has a better understanding of the system. Worked with Bryce this summer in California. Had fun. Treated it like a vacation and training since it was his only trip the summer. Bryce likes to wake up early and he asked him to push it back to avoid traffic at 8am.
  • Better feel of an NFL offense, signals, being in the huddle, splits, adjustments, etc. Cleaning up on the details he didn't need to worry about in college.
  • Not worried about the outside noise. Been working on keeping his focus and mentals in order since his sophomore season, so nothing new for him.
  • Wasn't worried about a fresh start with a new staff. Just worried about himself and giving his best.
  • Noticed that the game is slowing down for Bryce as well. Can read it more relaxed, slow it down, and be more comfortable. Can see it in his practice.
  • Asked about a connection coming into the league with Bryce. "I guess you can say so." Mentioned keeping the same mindset and wanting to help the team win.
  • Feels like Bryce is really shifty and that Mingo missed him on a few scramble opportunities. Being more ready for him and what the defense is showing so that he can find the hole which you can find when learning the defense and your QB (how he is, where he likes to take the play, etc) and being on the same page with him.
  • Did some batting practice at the Angels stadium with Bryce. He's not very good at baseball. He can play infield, but isn't a hitter. Mingo can hit and played centerfield. Legette can hit too. Says Legette is cool. Mentioned getting bumped into second place when XL came in, but Coach Moore can't understand him so they're always having a laugh about that. Good energy and fun guy to be around. Mingo can understand every word, but Adam tries to translate for him which makes everybody laugh more. Gonna try to get together in the offseason to ride horses since him and XL both do
  • The coaches have good feel for defenses, so they look to take what the defense gives them and capitalize.
  • Likes pads. Real physicality and talking now. Excited to play fast and confident.
  • Not motivated to beat guys ahead of him on the depth chart, motivated to beat himself and be better on the field. Everybody is trying to win on the field so that's best for the team.
  • Feels like getting a lot of reps helped him get a better feel for the game
  • Trash talking makes the team better. Diontae likes to talk. Chuba talks the most noise and is always ready to put on pads.

  • Working on getting up to football speed. Focusing on technique and making plays.
  • Coaches do a great job of putting them in the right position. Evero makes the right calls at the right times.
  • Room keeps themselves contained, don't worry about what is going on in the media.
  • Taking it day-by-day and goes out with the 1s to compete every day.
  • Trying to bring a winning culture. Folks from last year aren't satisfied and they're looking to get the right pieces in the right place.
  • Easier to control his emotions now that he's been in the league for five years, so after a bad play he's able to maintain focus and move forward.
  • Felt the defense is already good and is just trying to find his place in it to help win.
  • Everybody can play. Doesn't know about the rooms last year, but good competitiveness now.
  • Had a interest from a few teams but let his agent handle it. Happy to be here.
  • Talks between the team and his agent made him comfortable that the team wanted him. Players want to find a place to come and make it their home.
  • Not an overly talkative person. Leads by example and tries to make sure to reach out to younger guys when they get down on themselves like his vets did for him when he first got into the league.
  • Bryce makes all the right throws. Will be doing all of the right things in coverage but Bryce will throw the guy open. Knew of him but didn't watch much Panthers football since he was focused on teams on his schedule. Happy to be on the same team as him and compete.

 

Looks like that's a wrap for the day

Kind of wild now how much more training camp info there is now with even more fans, podcasters, etc after these practices capturing video + providing live updates. We're spoiled.

I hope the team allows the drone footage to continue. Really enjoyed that today.

Yeah, no. Go watch the Dalton throw right after that. That's a guy that sped up. 

He sped up directly out of his move and ran to his spot and caught it. If he went any farther he would have run in to the group working at other end. No idea what you were looking at.
