KRL Jets Training camp notes for July 26, 2025.
General Notes
- The second day of fans was better in terms of attendance and energy.
- Players were still in jerseys and shorts, and practice ran 2:05.
- Justin Fields participated in the non-11-on-11 periods (no lines, no risk of getting stepped on).
- No fights or even shoving matches occurred — a surprisingly clean practice.
- Aaron Glenn introduced the 2025 version of the “Oklahoma Drill.” Instead of full contact, it involved “thudding.” Top defenders included:
- Andre Cisco
- Marcelino McCrary-Ball (LB)
- Tony Adams
- Sauce Gardner
- Tyrod Taylor was QB1, Brady Cook QB2, and Adrian Martinez QB3.
- Fairly even practice, but considering previous struggles, the offense gets the edge today.
Special Teams Notes
- The kickers stood out and both impressed:
- Harrison Mevis (Austin McNamara holding) went 9-for-10.
- Cade Davis (Kai Kroger holding) also went 9-for-10, showing improved leg strength on 50-yard attempts.
Defense Notes
- New names flashed, including rookies and UDFAs:
- Jamien Sherwood had great blitz timing, knocking down a Tyrod Taylor pass and stuffing Breece Hall on a run.
- Rookie Francisco Mauigoa (LB) showed good range with a sideline “tackle” on Isaiah Davis and added a TFL.
- Rookie Azareyeh Thomas (CB) made a great INT on a Brady Cook pass, undercutting Allan Lazard’s route.
- UDFA Payton Page (DT) dominated in the middle, recording three TFLs on various run plays.
- Isaiah Oliver (DB) forced and recovered a fumble on Breece Hall during a run.
Offense Notes
- The offense bounced back with better execution and more chunk plays.
- Josh Reynolds had a standout day competing for the WR2 spot, with two 20+ yard catches from Tyrod Taylor:
- One against tight coverage from Sauce Gardner and Andre Cisco.
- Another beating Cisco downfield.
- UDFA Jamal Pritchett continues to get open and catch everything thrown his way. At 5’8″, his effectiveness over the middle will be tested when pads come on.
- Rookie TE Mason Taylor showed strong blocking, leading the way on a 15+ yard stretch run for Breece Hall.
Quarterback Notes
- Justin Fields looked sharp in 7-on-7s:
- Found chemistry with Garrett Wilson on multiple routes.
- Split the safeties (Tony Adams and Andre Cisco) for a 40+ yard seam route to Tyler Johnson.
- Connected on a 20+ yard corner route to Arian Smith before he turned his head.
- Brady Cook threw a nice 40+ yard TD to Braelon Allen after rolling right when the play broke down.
- Adrian Martinez showed improved skills but needs mechanical work. He overthrew Jamal Pritchett badly on one rep due to poor fundamentals.
