This morning the team got a little break only having to wear shells and shorts for practice. But this afternoon, full pads were back on – but only for a portion.

After one 11-on-11 period and a live goal line period, McDaniels told his players to take off their shoulder pads. About an hour into the practice, players took several minutes slipping into shells for the remainder of the workout.

Brian Dawkins returned for the session after missing the morning workout, while several veterans, including Daniel Graham, Champ Bailey, D.J. Williams and Renaldo Hill, got the afternoon off.

A crowd of 953 watched a practice that included several big plays on both sides of the ball and a lot of pre-practice dancing during stretching.
