I head into the stadium right when the gates open. I like to see the players working out on the field before they get their pads on.
Bailey was completely engaged, going full speed through individual drills with the other edge guys. It was not uncommon to see Bailey skip this last year or dog it.
Bailey started at the field OLB position last night and you could tell from the first snap that he was motivated. He was pursuing. He was getting in on piles that he would not have last year. He chased down a receiver 40 yards down the field to prevent a TD at the time. HE WAS ON THE DAMN KO COVER TEAM.
So credit is due to the player and staff for fixing the disconnect that they had between each other last year. Tafiti ended up playing a bunch more snaps and of course you don’t like to see emotional 15 yard penalties but overall it looked liked a positive step.
