Tuesday, July 31st, 2007
Willis McGahee had barely gotten used to his new shoulder pads when it came time for him to start carrying the football.
Eager to impress, McGahee took off around left end. He was met by sixth-round draft pick Prescott Burgess, who showed a bit too much enthusiasm in the no-contact drill by steamrolling the running back and separating him from the ball.
