What day number of camp is this? Seems like as good as any to go dust off the old tailgate gear in preparation for the 12th. 
 

Disclaimer: not actually tailgating, just drinking on my couch or in my backyard. But hey, it’s a great time. All are welcome! 

McD said today is the unofficial end of training camp. They’re off tomorrow then begin regular season work week stuff on Tuesday for GB -to acclimate rookies and new guys to the pattern.

Harrison Phillips has to be hating life right now...so unfortunate 

 

It has to be very hard for him to go back to rehabbing while the team moves on.

The only thing I could say is he talked so much about his special needs brother in the past that I imagine he will push thru this somehow.

Does anyone else think from the little exchange captured there, maybe Diggs and McKenzie don't like each other too much?

 

Actually, some will do the exact same thing to show affection/friendship.

Absolutely not. It's a big brother, little brother relationship. They give each other crap all the time, as a show of affection.

Feel horrible for Harry, no pun intended.

Load management isn't having a player sit out this long, not a smart statement.

 

Great to see Diggs getting in some work.

I think it's more McKenzie talks trash to everyone.

 

Oh yeah Hyde made it clear the team loves and respects " 'lil Dirty" but also that "we hate it when he makes a play" (because he tells them ALL about it)

 

I just have the impression McKenzie doesn't give Diggs what Diggs sees as "his propers", and Diggs maybe isn't as generously helpful as he is to some of the other young players.

 

But hopefully @Motorin' and @Bangarang and others are right and it's more of a "lil bro/big bro" thing where they'll talk trash to each other and compete but underneath it they help each other and nobody else better mess with either of 'em

Maybe I should start a separate thread, but for now I'll drop this here:

 

Diggs voted by players as #11 best, per NFLN annual gig.

 

By process of exclusion, our Man will be top 10 in the vote.

 

They teased that one player (JA?) moved up the most this year. Since they've already had a +34 player, and Josh was 41(??) last year... we're talking possible top 5 amongst player voters. Amazing the respect he earned.

 

My god, we've come so far...

I think Josh was 87 last year.

Hopefully we hear more on the Harry injury today, I think/hope that the MLJ tweet was based off misunderstanding exactly what McDermott meant when delivering his injury update.

 

...and on the Diggs / McKenzie footage... that's not even a talking point for me.  Diggs made a catch, is amped up to be back and more involved after a break, saw his buddy and give him a 'Let's Go!".  No problems there as far as I can see.  I've never trained football ... but have trained/played plenty of soccer and that's the sort of stuff that goes on all the time, between the very best of friends.  In fact I think you need to be very comfortable in your relationship with your teammate to be doing that.  All good. Expecting big things from McKenzie this year, but please field those punts cleanly.

just FYI… there is no practice today 8/23. The TC schedule does not list any practices beyond yesterday, other than 9/1 open practice to fans. So I don’t know exactly when media will be observing/reporting outside of that.

I believe yesterday was considered the last day of training camp.

McDermott said the next time he was scheduled to talk was Thursday so we'll find out more then.
