Called a stigma hard to get rid of, was a solid player off bench

Until we see some newbies okay I can't say we are better ar corner, Apple was a solid off the bench corner, we need to see game action to judge

JMO but Cam Taylor-Britt by the end of the year was better than Apple. With the benefit of his first training camp and some great experience playing after Awouzie went down I think he’s solid. But there is absolutely no disputing that our secondary is one if not fastest secondary’s in the NFL universe. CTB, Dax, and DJ all sub 4.

It's one of those things that gets said, then gets parroted a lot. Apple talked like he was a top 5 corner, which turned people off, but he was solid enough to come in as the #1 corner replacing Awuzie and allow the team to go on a 10-game win streak. That just doesn't happen when you have even one corner that is not good. The opposing QB would take advantage of that weakness over and over. Apple held up.

Nice power off the snap, but he looked like he got away with a hands to the face that threw Volson off-balance for a moment, before he quickly recovered and matched Carter with equal strength. Battle of two brutes right there.

Absolutely true. But he’s still not on a team is he?

I don't think that was Volson, unless he changed his ethnicity...

Man, I think you're right. I couldn't see the jersey number, so just assumed it was second team D going against first team OL. Good catch.

Believe Trey Hill is 61 the guy who moved to the left so must be Adeniji who is also taller and lengthier.
You cannot see the number there at all of the guy Carter is manhandling that is for sure.

RE: Training Camp Chat/News/Updates - jj22 - 08-08-2023
Prediction for Friday. 6 catches 90+ yards.
