The pads came on today at Saint Vincent College, and the intensity ramped up at practice as a result. The first four days of training camp are valuable in their own way, but nothing matches when the live contact starts.

During Seven Shots, a drill where the offense and defense line up near the goal line for seven opportunities to score (or prevent the score), the offense started with a run play right up the middle. It resulted in a Najee Harris touchdown. According to Dan Moore Jr., the play call was very intentional.

“It’s definitely tone setting,” Moore said in a video posted by The Athletic’s Mark Kaboly on X.
