“We’re hearing feedback from high schools, other teams wanted to join in, but we wanted to keep it a little bit exclusive for this first year. We eventually want to make it a bigger two-day-type tournament thing.”The winning team in the double-elimination, seven-on-seven tournament will receive a $4,000 prize from McPhearson, Williams, and their marketing agency, Kool Vibe Sports.
“Me and Milt are really close,” McPhearson said. “We got close way before the draft when we trained together at EXOS. We’ve got a really good connection. We hang out a lot during the offseason. I’m excited Milt is here on the ride with me. He works really hard and he pushes me every day of the year.”
The defensive back room is noticeably crowded heading into training camp. Cornerbacks on the roster include Slay, Bradberry, McPhearson, Avonte Maddox, Josh Jobe, Josiah Scott, 2023 fourth-round pick Kelee Ringo, free-agent signees Greedy Williams and Tristin McCollum, plus undrafted rookies Mekhi Garner and Eli Ricks.“I’m feeling good,” McPhearson said. “The team looks really good. It’s like we haven’t missed a beat in OTAs.
