St-Jean-sur-Richelieu
Focus on theory
This morning’s practiced was mainly focused on theory at the Stade Haut-Richelieu as Offensive Coordinator Marcel Bellefeuille shared his strategy with his offence.
Vets work-out
Head Coach Jim Popp asked his vets to stick around to do some extra conditioning while rookies went back to the campus after practice.
Three additions
Rookie running back Mike Imoh (5’7’’, 195 lbs.) from Virginia Tech, rookie cornerback Jeremy Chandler (5’8’’, 165 lbs.) from Western Kentucky, and defensive back Santino Hall (6’, 195 lbs.) from Texas Southern have all been added to the roster.
Two deletions
Defensive end Andrew Battle and receiver Montrell Jones have both been deleted from the roster.
Thurmon shines again
Receiver Elijah Thurmon made another spectacular over-the-head catch in practice today.
Dallas Cowboy at practice
The Dallas Cowboys’ Assistant Director of Pro Scouting, Brian Gaine, attended practice today. Gaine is probably the most regular visitor among scouts to St-Jean during camp.
According to Jim Popp
About Jarrett Payton:
“He comes as advertised and has done great so far (at running back). He’s a tremendous teammate and a great special teams player.”
About Anthony Calvillo’s chances of playing in the first pre-season game in Toronto:
“It depends on how comfortable he is with the offence.”
Tomorrow
The team will practice from 8 a.m. to roughly noon tomorrow. In case of rain, practice will be moved to the Stade Haut-Richelieu.
