It’s tough for rookies to stand out during un-padded practices (or, football in shorts), but New Orleans Saints defensive back Chauncey Gardner-Johnson found a way to get noticed on the first day of rookie minicamp. He certainly made an impression on his coaches.
“It’s limitless on what he can do,” defensive backs coach Aaron Glenn said to Luke Johnson of the Times-Picayune. “He does have the speed and the mentality to go out there and play corner. But he can play nickel, he can play in the box, he can play deep safety. You have fun with players like that, now.
