Rush Review: Training Camp Day #13

Camp Wofford

#1. Cam Newton was giving practice off as a scheduled rest day. Player missing practice due to injury: TE Ian Thomas (rib contusion) and C Tyler Larsen (unknown). Players returning to practice from injury: DT Kawann Short (shin kicked) and RB Jordan Scarlett (back).

#2. The little league softball team that was coached by TE Greg Olsen was the special guests allowed to be on the sidelines today.  The faces these kids had as they interacted with the players were a joy to watch. There was also several members of the military here as well. They spoke with players like LB Luke Kuechly, RB Christian McCaffrey and LB Shaq Thompson during special teams drills.

#3. The team came out in shells again for practice. It was said on yesterday that today’s practice was going to be full pads. With Tuesday and Wednesday being joint practices with the Buffalo Bills it will be full pads worn for the final two days at Camp Wofford.

#4. Players who got first team reps: QB Kyle Allen, S Tre Boston and CB Javien Elliott (small nickel CB). Players who got 2nd team reps: OL Dennis Daley (LG), OT Greg Little (LT) and DB Ross Cockrell (outside CB). WR Jaydon Hickens, WR Rashad Ross. WR Terry Godwin and WR Chris Hogan did all the punt return work.

#5. These are the highlights from team drills: CB James Bradberry got a pass deflection in the end zone on a pass intended for WR DJ Moore thrown by Allen. Olsen caught a TD pass from Allen during red zone period. WR Curtis Samuel had a huge catch on a deep ball over CB Javien Elliott from a pass by Allen. Moore gets revenge on Bradberry by making an awesome catch on the sideline that included him tip toeing both feet before going out of bounds. WR Aldrick Robinson caught a TD pass from Allen while being covered by CB Josh Thorton. Olsen also caught a TD from Allen while beight tightly guarded by LB Shaq Thompson. McCaffrey caught a screen pass from Allen then took it all the way to the end zone.  Jackson bounced back by making a nice pass deflection will covering Hogan on a pass by QB Will Grier. CB Corn Elder made a perfect break on the ball to knock down a pass to WR Torrey Smith on a Grier pass. DB Cole Luke jumped up high and made a spectacular pass deflection on a QB Taylor Heinicke ball in the end zone meant for Hogan. Hogan made it for it by catching a TD over DB Rashaan Gaulden and S Colin Jones on a Grier deep ball. TE Chris Manhertz catches 2 TDs from Grier passes with one being over Kuechly and the other being over S Eric Reid. Boston got a pretty pass deflection while covering Samuel on a deep pass by Allen. LB Antoine Williams drop into coverage and made a pretty smooth INT on a Grier pass intended TE Jason Vander Lean.

#6. After practice was over Reid told every player in the secondary that they need to get the JUGGS machine out because they dropped several interceptions in practice today. This turned into a 30 minute session. LB Jermaine Carter Jr. left practice early with what seems to be a leg issue. Head coach Ron Rivera made it very clear that he will throw out any player who tries to fight during the joint practices with the Buffalo Bills.

Tre Boston is Finally Home, Signs One Year Deal with Panthers

Contract News, Prime Cuts with Norris

 

After six practices at Wofford, Marty Hurney and the Panthers have decided to bring back safety Tre Boston on a one year contract worth $3 million in incentives. NFL insider, Adam Schefter, and Tre Boston himself announced the signing on Wednesday night via Twitter. This signing is a long time coming, as Boston and Carolina have kept in touch over the last two offseasons.

Earlier this year, Boston and Carolina tried to get something worked out, but it was reported that Boston wanted more money than Hurney wanted to give up. He was waiting on the right fit for the right contract. Now that it’s August and the first preseason game is on the horizon, Tre thought it would be best to sign with Carolina. Per Josina Anderson, Tre told her he chose Carolina because they are “a playoff team. The defense is missing one piece, so why not help my brothers out and finish what we started.”

Tre announces on Twitter that he has chosen Carolina.

This news hit Twitter around 10:30pm on Wednesday night and Panther Nation went nuts. It’s something that many fans have expected for months. Tre lives in Charlotte and still has ties to the Panthers in many capacities. He often visits Charlotte sports radio station WFNZ. He plays golf in Charlotte and invites fans around Charlotte to play. When Carolina returns to the field today at Wofford, Boston is expected to be there with them.

The defense with Boston at free safety is scary good. Prior to this signing, it was expected that Rashaan Gaulden would start at free safety. Gaulden, while making some plays in camp, wasn’t impressing at free safety. He did, however, make several plays at nickel corner. The signing of Boston signifies that Gaulden will like play big nickel, where he’s more comfortable. While Carolina will implement multiple defensive fronts and schemes, this is how their 3-4 unit will look:

SS Eric Reid

FS Tre Boston

CB James Bradberry

CB Donte Jackson

OLB Brian Burns/Bruce Irvin

OLB Mario Addison

ILB Luke Kuechly 

ILB Shaq Thompson

DE Kawann Short

DT Dontari Poe

DE Gerald McCoy 

On paper, this is possibly the best defense that the Panthers have ever had. At the very least, they have the most potential.

Boston, who just turned 27 in June, was a 4th round pick for Carolina in 2014 and was with the Panthers until 2017. In three years, he amassed 108 tackles, 10 pass deflections, 3 interceptions and 2 sacks. He was part of the 2015 Super Bowl team, where the secondary proclaimed themselves as “Thieves Avenue”. He has since played for the Los Angeles Chargers (2017) and the Arizona Cardinals (2018), where he amassed 158 tackles, 17 pass deflections and 8 interceptions. Since being released from Carolina in 2017, Tre has turned himself into a top 3 safety in coverage, according to Pro Football Focus. This signing gives Carolina a much needed upgrade in the secondary, and gives them more ball hawking ability. Welcome home, Tre.
