On a lighter note, members of the team’s ground crew were watering down a patch of grass behind one of the team’s two practice fields, likely in anticipation of a rookie “slip-n-slide” that takes place annually. Rookies typically are charged with the task of recovering a “fumble” while sliding through the soggy grass, a fun way to mix up practice a bit (except not fun for the rookies).
