Forgot to mention this in the earlier blog, but there was a funny moment during practice when second-year RB Mike Goodson asked coaches if he could take on the team’s top LB Jon Beason in one-on-one blitz pickup drills.
“We have a request,” said RB coach Jim Skipper announced.
The crowd around the running backs and linebackers erupted when Goodson trotted out to block Beason. He did pretty well too, although Beason appeared to slip on the wet field (it rained for a good portion of practice) while making a move.
Afterward, Goodson said, “To be the best, you have to beat the best.” Great attitude from the kid.
