Another week of OTAs are in the books, with some more interesting nuggets starting to come in based on various observations.
Most interesting to me has been the slow-going at wide receiver where Michael Jenkins is starting with Danny Amendola, as expected. It’s no surprise to see veterans getting the first looks at this point in the offseason. That includes Steve Gregory, Kyle Arrington and Adrian Wilson on defense.
Of course the best news is that we can officially now say that “training camp starts next month”!
Here’s the best of the week:

Holy hoodie, this video just made the offseason seem impossibly long. Amazing work as always by the editor only known as CelticsPatriotsMan.
Not a bad way to spend a Saturday watching this on a loop.

I remember one AFC head coach telling me once the only coach he ever feared was Belichick. That fear was well earned.

I think the simple answer is on passing downs. Depending on how balanced the opposing offense is will determine how much he plays. Against the Ravens, he probably won’t be much more than a 3rd down player, both in coverage and rushing the passer.
But against the Broncos and Texans, he might play 75% of the snaps.
