Scout's Eye: Athletic LB Stands Out; Leary Has Smashing Return

OXNARD, Calif. - Here are a few thoughts from the film room in Oxnard after observing Monday’s practice:
• One of my favorite plays from practice was the interception that Bruce Carter made in the 1-on-1 period between the tight ends and running backs against the linebackers. Carter was matched up across from Phillip Tanner, who was to the left of Nick Stephens in the gun formation.
At the snap, Tanner swings wide to his left as Carter mirrors his steps to his right. Carter is 12 yards up the field before he turns to look for the ball. Tanner has a step on Carter, but Stephens is unable to get the ball far enough to the outside. Carter reading the ball is short, from an inside technique turns back to his right and reaching up with his right hand tips the ball to himself for the one handed interception while Tanner has to rally back to attempt to make a tackle. It was a beautiful play by Carter, who throughout this camp has been outstanding at playing the ball in the flat, but here he was challenged up the field and he came up big.
• It was Ronald Leary in his own words that said, "Missing practice sucks." He returned to the field after sitting out the first week of camp with a calf injury. Leary is in direct competition with Nate Livings and Mackenzy Bernadeau for a starting guard spot and was on his game when the offensive linemen began their 1-on-1 pass rush drill work with the defensive line.
