The Routine
One of the reasons I like to watch extra film is that when we go through the film as a group there isn't enough time to get a chance to really watch all of your reps closely. I always want to improve and being able to see what you're doing on film and correcting your mistakes is important to me. We watch practice film as a group between practices or if we practice at night then the next morning. There's so much to watch that you can't possibly watch all of your reps. I will stay a little later at night and go through my stuff on my own. Definitely helps me prepare for the next day.
Our routine is probably similar to most teams. We're up at 6:15 and leave for the stadium. We have a special teams meeting at 8 and then offense and defense meetings. Then we have position meetings until 9:30. We're on the field from 10-12, get lunch and some treatment then try to squeeze in a nap. We're back at the stadium at 3:00 for meetings. At 5:00 we break for dinner and then we got to our team meeting at 5:45. We get different speakers and presentations during that meeting. That's the meeting Joe Theismann came to and we had a presentation about all of the uniform rules the other day. We hit the field again for practice from 7-9, get a little treatment, grab a late night snack at the hotel and go to bed and do it all over again.
I just wanted to let you all know that I'm really looking forward to blogging my entire rookie season with the Jaguars and being apart of Yardbarker's Rookie Roundup. My USC teammate Keith Rivers will be doing it along with former Cal guy Lavelle Hawkins, and also Darren McFadden. More to come...
