“We didn’t have any fights,” cornerback James Bradberry said with a...
It’s a 2-min drill, so they are gonna keep it going, but offense just executed a perfect screen to McCaffrey to beat the blitz for a would-be TD.
“That’s 6 now!” McCaffrey said as he charged into the end zone. He’s been running angry today.

"If I can get our return guys one on one in space every week, I’m taking it," Blackburn said. "The reality is that the guys who are so good, the Devin Hesters, the Dante Halls, the Tyreek Hills … they had early success and the rest of the team rises up because they can feel that. It’s like...

SPARTANBURG – Well, that was the hottest practice of camp. By far.
The heat index started out around 110 and topped out at 115.5. Head athletic trainer Ryan Vermillion said the highest number he’s ever seen at training camp is 120. So yeah, a pretty steamy Sunday afternoon.
“I thought they...

Grier, who took over early in the second quarter, led five drives that totaled 10 points. After rookie running back Elijah Holyfield fumbled on the second play of Grier’s first drive, the Bears got another takeaway when safety Deon Bush tricked the rookie quarterback.
“That guy just jumped the...
“When I heard the play and I was peeking, I was like, ‘Ah, I think I might get it,’” Holyfield said. “It was very exciting. No better person than Will to throw it to me.”
Late in the fourth quarter, Holyfield bounced outside and made a couple defenders miss for an 11-yard touchdown run.
He...
