Daily observations from camp

2. It was the first day in full pads and there was even a period with live tackling near the end of practice.
“Everyone got excited on the sideline, so it was great,” said Lou Anarumo. “We’re going to play tackle football when it’s real, so at some point, you’ve got to do it.” pic.twitter.com/dxG87KNHIi

4. With Trent Brown likely out for a few more days, Amarius Mims is banking reps next to Alex Cappa.
“I’m in the huddle with him, I’m beside him on the field, and I’m just picking his brain,” said Mims. “He’s won a Super Bowl and knows what it takes, and that will help me.” pic.twitter.com/D4Qs5h1yFv

5. Mike Gesicki catches 160 balls on the jugs machine every day.
“In the offseason, I actually do 200,” he said. “I have a machine at home and my wife shoots them to me. It’s 160 here because my routine includes 20 high and 20 low balls and that requires moving it up and down.” pic.twitter.com/u6Gjtn6M2k
