So Matt Rhule did not have the team practice today. He said during the media session that he hasn't been happy with the team's attention to detail and that they were not worthy of practicing, so he didn't have them practice. We'll have a quick story up with audio from his interview and an interview with Avery Williams later tonight.
A few quick notes to pass along:
David Hood practiced Saturday for the first time this spring.
Rhule continued to praise the work of Ryquell Armstead. Avery Williams did as well.
Williams mentioned that Marshall Ellick is having a great spring and when Rhule was asked about him, he told the story of an NFL scout who came in and asked, 'Who's No. 84?' So it would seem that Ellick of course has to put that potential into practice and continue to make plays in practice that get him into games this season.
It also seems that Nate Hairston continues to make strides in locking down that other starting CB spot. Rhule mentioned that he likes what he has seen from Artrel Foster, but he's dinged up again, and that's continued to hold him back. He also mentioned Derrek Thomas' name as someone who continues to improve in the defensive backfield.
