Possible but I expect it being a fashion gala his GF Victoria Secret super model might have secured the invite.

If he goes into a slide this season Ima have to buy tickets on West side of the stadium and wear a flimsy white cowboy hat and stand up on third and long...




That'll make little miss Victoria Secret sheath her scissors.

Hopefully he is healthy leading into this season and Zac and the new coaches have the rest of the team ready to go in winning and pick up
where we left off last season on the win streak.

He was taking a day a week off last year too if I remember right. Gives his arm some rest and allows Browning to get some reps with the 1st team.

You had to go to that dooshy event and that’s why you missed the voluntary practice?  (Yes I know what voluntary means - but he’s also the QB and highest paid player in team history)

No big deal and the team probably knew but still a weak-ass excuse.

No idea why folks would thumbs down this

One day of OTA's. I could not care less. He is here now. Browning & Woodside need the practice.

Plus, all our vet skill guys have been in this system before and with Burrow: C. Brown, Moss, Perine, Chase, Tee, Yoshi, Sizzle, Burton, I. Williams, Pryor, Burgess, Sample, Gesicki, Hudson, Grandy, McLachlan.

I think Tinsley is the only vet newbie, and he may have been here last year. I can't remember.

Yep, no big deal. Browning needs his reps with the 1st team anyways.

A few notes from Zac Taylor, who met with the media after the #Bengals rookie mini-camp field work this morning (they only do one day for one hour, rest is off the field).

- Shemar Stewart and Demetrius Knight Jr. watched on the side as the only two picks that haven’t yet…

I realize these drills are not at full speed yet, but man I hope Tahj is faster than he looks in that drill.

Great news if Seth can be cleared by camp. Sounds like the perfect fit, cannot help but have good thoughts about this guy for the future.

I really like Matt lee in pass protection, but Seth could be the more rounded Center for us in the future and Matt does play Guard.

[*pally*]

It is easy to understand why the coaches really like this young man

“The best of the best do that. Drew Brees did it … Imagery is key.”

I asked Demetrius Knight, Jr. about his choice to go through mental/visual reps, even though he didn’t participate in rookie minicamp practice (contract unsigned).

I thought his answer was great:#Bengals… https://t.co/qB3HOW3c8T pic.twitter.com/2t1TzZFkTs

I realize there were no defenders and it wasn't even full speed or anything, but I like the way he looked in moving his feet and the moves that he'll obviously have when he's full speed.

Yes, it's probably nice to have rookies come in that already have a little bit of maturity to them. I bet he's hating not being able to participate.

Jermain Burton being at voluntary workouts is welcomed.

Burton must have seen Joe Burrow get three of his receivers receivers nice contracts this off-seasons including two 100+ mil contracts.



In other news the Bengals have a Long Snapper competition in camp between Cal Adomitis and William Wagner!
