LEXINGTON, Ky. – The first hour of Kentucky football practice was open to reporters Tuesday. Here is what we learned:

u25ba Senior linebacker Jordan Jones, who has been slowed by a couple of minor injuries while recovering from spring shoulder surgery, was a full participant in the open portions of practice. He was not even wearing a red no-contact jersey and was in on several stops. Jones’ normal energy and excitement was on full display, so concerns about him being slowed early in the season should be alleviated some.
