Practice No. 6 under gray skies came with a dousing of splash plays. Often, the headliner rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels was the trigger man on pinpoint deep throws or targeted strikes.

Having caught several of Daniels’ passes in Tuesday’s session, the wide receiver dropped a fair amount of hyperbole in his post-practice news conference. Dotson referenced his receiver tag-team partner Terry McLaurin as “the best go-ball player in freaking NFL history,” for example. After waiting for a collective breakout showing, the excitement was understandable, as was the timing.
