In addition to Pryor, Joe Thomas and Billy Winn, among others, returned to practice on Saturday. Even though he didn’t practice, running back Duke Johnson did some jogging and fullback Malcolm Johnson had limited participation.
“It was just jogging around. There was nothing full speed, we’ll take it easy with (Duke) for a while,” Pettine said. “Anytime we’re in this mode – like when we do our night walkthroughs all the guys that are capable of doing that all participate in it. This was similar tempo. That’s the benefit of doing it that way, you get some of those injured guys involved in it.

“It’s good to get (Malcolm) out there. He’s another guy like Pryor that did a real good job with the mental part of it. There’s no substitute though for being out there, it’s good. Flip’s glad because that gets him back into some of those fullback personnel groupings instead of trying to – he did a little bit with tight ends and he can actually use Malcolm, the way that the original plan was.”
Safety Tashaun Gipson did not practice because of a calf injury that Pettine said would not keep Gipson out long term.
Saturday was the final training camp practice open to the public. According to the team’s website, training camp attendance was 31,393 for the team’s 11 open practices. The average attendance of 2,853 fans is the second-highest total since the team starting keeping track.
