AJ McCarron is “Awesome”

Wallace Gilberry of NFL.com is hearing reports from the Cincinatti Bengals camp that AJ McCarron is doing awesome. In fact he was quoted saying the following: The kid is doing awesome,” Gilberry said, via AL.com. “When I say awesome, that’s kind of an understatement. I mean, last year, he kind of struggled with the arm situation. But this year, man … his throwing motion is on point. His passes are on point. I think he’s thrown one interception the whole camp. Not to say Andy (Dalton) has thrown any, but the kid is competing.”

Most Alabama fans became aware of an injury McCarron played with his senior season he received during the Tennessee game, but like every other Bama player he looked past what was best for him and looked to what was best for the team and continued to play with an injured arm.
