• The defense dominated practice with four interceptions, including two by Miles Battle, contributing to a tough day for the offense and wide receiver Tutu Atwell.
• Quarterback Malik Willis had his best practice of the week, showing improved passing accuracy with notable completions to Caleb Douglas and a touchdown pass to rookie tight end Will Kacmarek.
