I was at practice today and charted the 36-play 11-on-11 action that concluded it. I talked to Willie Fritz and Chris Hampton afterward. Fritz said Sorrell Brown is taking a medical DQ because of his chronic bad knees. It's a sad story because Brown arrived with a lot of ability before ACL tears to both knees in consecutive preseasons knocked him out for two years. When he tried to come back last fall, he was unable to practice hard for more than a couple of days before the knees would start bothering him.
Because of my schedule, I cannot do a report today, but I will have a full report tomorrow morning with quotes from Fritz and Hampton. Hampton is coaching the safeties, with J.J. McCleskey handling the corners, Mike Mutz the linebacker, Byron Dawson the defensive line (no changes there) and Joshua Christian-Young bouncing between the defensive line and the linebackers. That's a new responsibility for him after he worked with the safeties last year.
