Jacksonville Jaguars 2014 Training Camp: Day 11 Twitter Recap
As we inch closer to the first preseason game on Friday, the Jacksonville Jaguars are having to deal with a slew of minor injuries that are keeping players from practicing. The starters we see on Friday will likely not look much like what we will see week 1 of the regular season.
Here are some of the notes on Twitter from day 11 of training camp:
Jerry Sullivan had some things to say about the receivers, praising a few guys but also being critical of the amount of drops so far in camp.
Sullivan said Lee, Allen Hurns (if available) and Mike Brown top three WRs for Friday night. #Jaguars

Sullivan said Kerry Taylor has had too many drops lately.

Sullivan said Cecil Shorts needs to practice to be ready for Week 1, despite his experience. Says you can't learn to swim by reading a book.

Jags WR coach Jerry Sullivan says Mike Brown has been the most dependable, steady receiver in camp.

I’m a big fan of Mike Brown, and I think he’s becoming a sure thing to make the final 53-man roster.
The players were in shorts and helmets on Wednesday, and handful of players were off due to various reasons.
Cam Bradfield getting a personal day, he's not here. Roy Miller and Geno Hayes getting veteran's day off.

On to practice, Chad Henne is still apparently going to have designed runs…
Mike Vick, er, Cam Newton, er, Chad Henne with the nice bootleg. Fooled EVERYBODY.

The Jaguars twitter handle continues to produce some cool vines from practice…
After HC Bradley said to @KShaw81 : "I love to watch you work," he made a good grab at #JagsCamp! https://t.co/jAsC3mf5wz

Scobee good from 60 with a couple yards to spare. Second 60-plus yarder this camp #JagsCamp #Jaguars

And the team got into a few more scuffles today.
Chad Bumphis and Will Blackmon get into it after incompletion on tight coverage. Bumphis shoved his head back.

Taylor and Fleming grapple.

A couple of post-play rhubarbs today. I think the #jaguars are ready to mix it up with another team #JagsCamp
— J.P. Shadrick (@jpshadrick) August 6, 2014
We got more information after practice as opposed to during, including praise for Bortles and his progress so far.
Gus Bradley says Bortles starting to stack up quality practices.

And as if the Jaguars needed another receiver down, Mike Brown apparently injured his hamstring, and the team started working out some street guys.
Mike Brown has a hamstring injury, just what the #Jaguars need.
