“You want every play to be amazing, explosive, but you just want him lining up right, doing the fundamental things, making the easy plays,” DeBoer said. “And then because of his ability the big ones will come. When you’re out there running good routes, catch the ball, accelerate out with good ball security.
It’s a storyline throughout a team working with a new coaching staff, even for those who were in the fold for spring practices.
