- Rookie tight end Brody Eldridge got a fair amount of attention during the practice, as Peyton Manning threw to him several times. My notes say, “Eldridge is not very fast, but appears to be very technically sound. He also seemed involved, asking questions of the coaching staff and other players.”
Eldridge got open down the right sideline for a touchdown on a nice pump-fake from Peyton Manning during seven-on-seven drills. On the very next play, however, Eldridge was open on a post in between three players. Manning threw a strike to him, and he caught it, but lost the ball putting it away. It looked like he may have tried to run before securing the ball, and it fell incomplete. The rookie had to endure a baleful glare from a hands-on-hips Manning while he jogged back to the line of scrimmage. Eldridge also fumbled a ball in the 11-on-11 segment to end the practice, but recovered it.
