4 things we learned from Week 1 of OTAs

 

1 – Offense hums in two-minute drill

2 – Feliciano and Long man the pivot

3 – The defensive back situation

4 – Tuesday standouts

Among the players who turned in plays on Tuesday besides Johnson on defense were Shaq Lawson, who had a tackle for loss on a run play by Senorise Perry. He also had a very impressive pass breakup when he had to drop into coverage to cover Isaiah McKenzie of all people and got to his landmark to break up the pass.

 

Lawson was lined up at second team right defensive end Tuesday. Trent Murphy manned the starting left defensive end role opposite Jerry Hughes.

 

Also turning in plays were Tremaine Edmunds, who broke up a pass for LeSean McCoy. And LB Maurice Alexander had a forced fumble and fumble recovery when he stripped TE Tommy Sweeney over the middle after the catch.

 

On offense Jason Croom turned in some nice plays in the passing game before leaving early with a leg injury. After the plays turned in by Foster and Jones, Isaiah McKenzie, Dawson Knox and undrafted rookie Nick Easley also made their presence felt.

 

Another beneficiary on offense was rookie RB Devin Singletary. With Frank Gore not participating in team segments and LeSean McCoy seeing scaled back reps this time of year, Singletary put his elusiveness on display in the run game.

 

He bobbed and weaved through traffic at the line and often reached the secondary on his runs. On one particular run, Singletary’s decision making on where to run was so sound that offensive coordinator Brian Daboll shouted from the sideline, ‘Yeah baby!! Great run!!’

 

Daboll then made a point to find Singletary after the play and tap him on the helmet.
