Riders Day 4

Seemingly a real uneventful day during camp, but the one thing I did find interesting was what happened afterwards. Juan Joseph and Dalton Bell staying late to work on some reps with Chris Jones serving as the receiver. Joseph was still on the field after the media horde had finished interviews and left for the day.

Stu Foord left early and was seen with an ice pack on his leg. Coach Miller called it a bruise and nothing serious, he's day-to-day.

The team continued to go thru their second practice without pads on today.

I saw several passes get away on the QB's today, either sailing high or not getting to the back on a screen. Maybe not their best day of camp.

Coach Miller is positive about Bam Childress and Casey McGahee and their punt returning capabilities. The team struggled at the position last year and the Coach is determined to take Weston Dressler out of that roll so that he can focus on his receiver duties.

Only one week until the first pre-season game in Edmonton. Not much time to get everybody reading on the same page considering the new faces around. But Coach feels that the team is progressing nicely and will be ready.
