The Miami Dolphins had good things to say about Atlanta Falcons quarterbacks Kirk Cousins and Michael Penix Jr., receiver Drake London and others.
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- In the NFL, teams rarely say negative things about their teammates and mean it -- especially during training camp, a time built on optimism. But things sometimes differ when talking about opponents, and theAtlanta and Miami competed in joint practices Tuesday and Wednesday at Baptist Health Training Complex in Miami Gardens, serving as a tune-up for the first preseason game at 7 p.m. Friday inside Hard Rock Stadium.
“It's awesome, you know, being with Mike for all those years here in Atlanta and having the ability to grow with him. I remember moving up in the offense, he was one of the people that was instrumental in teaching me the offense and what we did with Kyle Shanahan and some of those things, so that was a really good experience, and we go way back to Washington days.
“I mean, it's just so much history there between us and that's like my little brother. He's one of those guys I talk about all the time and got so much respect for what he's been able to accomplish and do in this league. Particularly last year, you know, he redefined some of the offensive styles, some of the way we play, some of the unique motions that you see going across the league right now. He was one of the first, if not the first, to start it.
"That helped us on the defensive side, to where you don't just hone in one guy. Playing them for a couple years, it's good to see some of the other guys step up, grow up and have bigger roles in the offense. So, that's always good when you see maturity from players you watched over the years. So, I think they've got a really, really good group, and I highly, highly respect those dudes. Grateful for the work.
