- Shells again (shoulder pads but no thigh or knee pads)

- No knee brace for Nathan Leacock for the second-straight practice

- Javontez Spraggins in attendance for second-straight practice

- Bru McCoy went through everything against air, didn't look limited in that regard

- Mike Matthews still sitting out with no helmet

- Cameron Seldon, Tommy Winton III in red jerseys

- John Campbell Jr., Dont’e Thornton, Andrej Karic, Kaleb Webb were dressed but limited

OL and DL one-on-one work

- Cooper Mays with a really nice rep on Elijah Simmons

- Rob Ayers all over Simmons afterward

- Lance Heard and James Pearce Jr. head-to-head, Heard stuck with him but it looked like a hold probably could've been called

- Caleb Herring won a rep against Jesse Perry, quickly shed the block

Interesting drill with the LB, TE, RB

- Trash cans set up with some kneeled coaches to simulate the line

- Josh Heupel, Tim Banks, Alec Abeln and Wililam Inge were helping

- TEs would stay back to pick up a rusher and RB would release on a route guarded by a LB

- DeSean Bishop had the best rep, drove past Jalen Smith for about five more yards, DeRail Sims was hyped

QB work with WR and TE

- Weren't separated into X Y Z just two lines of WR

- Bru McCoy first to get reps on the left side, followed by Squirrel White and then Nathan Leacock

- Chris Brazzell first on right, followed by Trey Weary and Nate Spillman

- TE order was Miles Kitselman, Ethan Davis, Holden Staes, Charlie Browder

- A lot of drops for on air reps

- Drops from Malcolm Kinzer, Trey Weary, Cole Harrison, Squirrel White, Nathan Leacock

- Jake Merklinger had a few bad reps in a row, missed pretty bad on an out-route and a slant but was fine outside of that

- Chris Brazzell might have the best hands on the team, almost everything is strong out in front, rarely catches it with his body
