The first day of padded (well, somewhat) practice was today and damn, it was hot. An early breeze quickly faded as the day progressed and soon enough, my ginger-self was roasting like a marshmallow over a campfire.
That didn’t stop the Bucs from making some good plays in training camp. It’s still early, but it’s encouraging to semi-starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick connecting with receivers early-on for big plays. It’s encouraging to see MJ Stewart stepping up and making plays. And it’s encouraging to see the coaching staff get creative with major pieces like Jason Pierre-Paul.
