After his first practice as an Oakland Raider, wide receiver Devon Wylie spent time with quarterback Derek Carr working on routes, and then after the rest of his teammates returned to the locker room, he stayed on the field running sprints.
“I have to pick up the momentum of camp,” said Wylie when he finally returned from the field. “The first couple of drills, I could feel a little bit of rustiness, but then as one-on-ones went on, I picked it back up.”
Wylie’s extra work isn’t all that surprising for a player now battling to make an NFL roster, but it becomes more impressive when you take into account his last 24 hours.
