Getting your player ready...
DOVE VALLEY — Center Tom Nalen, who had minor knee surgery in June and is entering his 15th season, is taking a scheduled day off from practice today.
Rookie fullback Peyton Hillis is spending his second straight day out of pads after straining his hamstring on Sunday morning. With Hillis out, Michael Pittman has been lining up at fullback to share practice repetitions with Cecil Sapp.
“I’ll do the best I can at whatever they want me to do, but I am definitely a tailback,” Pittman said Monday evening.
Right guard Montrae Holland is the only other player not practicing this morning as he continues to try to lose weight.
