Eagles return to the field in full pads
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – After a day off on Sunday, the Boston College football team resumed preseason training camp with practice number nine Monday morning inside Fish Field House. The Eagles held a 20-period practice for the first time since Saturday's scrimmage.
Â
Sophomore quarterback Anthony Brown was back under center taking snaps in live offense vs. defense periods for the first time in camp.
7v7 Highlights: CJ Lewis went up and made a high catch across the middle... Brown was on the money to hit Elijah Robinson in stride in the back of the end zone for a 15-yard score.
Offense vs. Defense: Matt McDonald, with plenty of time in the pocket thanks to the o-line, hit Korab Idrizi up the seam for a 20-yard completion... in red zone situations, the first team offense got into the end zone on a Brown completion to Michael Walker... Lewis continued to reel in catch after catch on the day, including two TDs in red zone series... Marcus Valdez forced a fumble, which was returned by the defense for a score... David Bailey burst through a big hole on the left side and went the distance for a 50-yard TD.
Â
Notes: NFL scouts from the Los Angeles Rams, Carolina Panthers, Chicago Bears and Cincinnati Bengals were in attendance Monday … sophomore safety Mike Palmer recorded an interception in the end zone during team work … sophomore defensive end Brandon Barlow had a would-be sack if quarterbacks were live during team period … McDonald had his third TD of practice with a 35-yard pass to Kobay White.
