One of the upsides of having an open training camp is that, if you perform well, you get the eyes on you, and the press. You know, of course, where this is going. The inverse is that when you perform poorly during an open practice—well, you still get the eyes, and the press, but for the opposite reasons.

And he got the chance to speak to the media after practice all about it.
