have chosen to forego the final day of practice at mandatory minicamp. This year, however, is different.
"Coach McDermott made a statement about us coming out here on this third day," said cornerback Kaiir Elam after Thursday's practice. "The last two years I've been here, we only did two days of mandatory minicamp, but he made a statement like 40 percent of our team is still new."

Not all teams are practicing on the third day of minicamp. I appreciate their attitude."during OTAs. The 2022 first-round draft pick, who made multiple interceptions during minicamp, seemed happy with the overall offseason progression.
"I think from where we started at, from the first OTAs until now, I feel like we have gotten way, way cleaner," said Elam."Be ready to go. Be in shape because it's going to be a challenge again," said McDermott.
