indyskinsfan Posted August 10, 2001 Share Posted August 10, 2001 by Kevin Mitchell, Linebacker Thursday, August 9, 2001 Today after practice, Coach let us have some fun. He said that if three offensive linemen and three defensive linemen could catch punts, we'd get an extra hour of curfew. All six linemen caught the punts on the first try! Is that motivation or what ? <FONT COLOR="Yellow">HTTR!!!</FONT c> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BostonSkins Posted August 10, 2001 Share Posted August 10, 2001 Here's Woody's take on it: CATCHING ON: Schottenheimer ended practice yesterday by issuing a challenge to the players. If six linemen, three from offense and three from defense, could catch three of 10 punts, the players would have their curfew extended by an hour last night. The offense picked tackles Jon Jansen and Chris Samuels and long snapper Ethan Albright. The defense sent out Kenard Lang, Michael Bankston and Dorian Boose. All 10 punts were caught cleanly and amid much cheering from teammates. Lang, for one, thought this might be the beginning of a whole new career for him. "Don't be surprised this season if you see me back there returning punts," Lang said. "I bring reliability, strength and charisma to the punt-returner position." When it comes to speed, Lang said teammate Michael Bates, who won a bronze medal in the 1992 Olympics, has nothing on him. "We raced the other night, and I beat him," Lang said. "We raced to the dinner table." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
