'I had written during OTAs that there seemed to be more intensity on the field than usual for that sort of practice. Well, that continued, for the most part, Tuesday. There were no fights (as there was during one of the OTA sessions), but there seemed to be a much more serious approach to every drill and portion of practice, and got a bit chippy again at times. This was especially evident during the offensive line individual session. Players were going pretty hard, even against blocking sleds and hand pads, and it was quite a bit vocal, as well. This is the first time all rookies and all veterans have had to be together on the field, and all of them want to prove they belong or that the new guy isn’t taking his job.'
