“What’s tough about this offense is matching it up with a defense in the way that you practice,” Likens said. “Defenses have to see all kinds of formations and then they have to adjust to how you line up.

A big chunk of the time we were out there focused on special teams and the biggest thing that stood out to me there was the number of bodies working on returning punts.

We'll see if other guys work there as camp goes on or if they find their punt returner from that group.

The second thought behind changing up the location was to lessen the burden on players. Grass fields are much cooler than turf ones and also can be easier on the body.
