Rice worked on his eye-and-hand coordination too but let's hope no one starts tossing bricks at Lamb anytime soon. :D

That is just an innocent reference from the Hall of Famer's history, young folks. It was not directed at Lamb negatively in any way. :)
I thought you were referencing Dodgeball not gonna lie lol.

Long story short, Jerry Rice's father was a bricklayer. He would help his father at jobs. Multiple workers on a job will throw bricks to finish jobs more quickly. Rice has always attributed catching hundreds of bricks that his father tossed to him for his excellent eye/hand coordination.

Surely we have a rule here against talking about a player's family.

This is where media and posters are supposed to say he's taking shots at Diggs.

This training camp may end as the most talkative one in franchise history. And that's saying something.
Think it’s just a matter of social media rise year in and year out. More reporters this year than last, more interviews, more soundbites.

I’m sure fans of other teams are getting much more content than say 5 years ago.

The INT stuff is annoying but that’s mainly external.

I do not believe 'more reporters' can be singled out for any perceptible rise in social media posts. And social media is not the only outlet for commentary coming out of camps also. Too many talking sports heads enjoy jumping on any little tidbit as well.

CeeDee Lamb on Stephon Gilmore: “He’s the smartest defensive back that I’ve ever lined up against. He knows certain routes off of my alignment, and it sucks. It’s really chess with him. You’re not just running a route, and that’s making me better. … On the walk-through reps, he’ll tell me what he’s thinking, just off my alignment. … Just picking his brain. It’s tough going against him, but I like it.”

This is what I said 2 years ago when I wanted the Cowboys to pursue Him
