Players not participants during the media portion today: Brad Johnson, Keir Thomas Chavis Dawkins, John Dixon, Tyquan Johnson. Randrecous Davis was participating in practice today but in a full yellow jersey.

All of them were in full pads and working with the training staff.

JJ Enagbare was expected to be cleared today according to Muschamp after Monday's scrimmage but I didn't see him taking reps during the media portion of practice today.

NFL teams in attendance: New York Jets, Green Bay Packers, Los Angeles Chargers

The Chargers sent their head of college scouting, Kevin Kelly, to watch practice today along with one other scout. Mitch Tannenbaum, former executive vice president of the Miami Dolphins and now with ESPN, was there as well.

--Tyreek Johnson was back at practice working today after missing the last open practice we got to see. Tavien Feaster was out there in full pads as well and was a full participant in practice today.

In terms of actual practice stuff, it was hard to glean a lot from it today. The team did some stretch stuff and then some county fair drills for turnovers and stuff like that.

Some stuff I noticed from what I was able to watch:

--Aaron Sterling looks good and stronger coming off that knee. The did some sled drills today and he put the sled on its side. He looks explosive and that's good news for South Carolina defensively if he can stay healthy and anchor that defensive line spot.

--Javon Kinlaw again looks really good and quick for a guy who weighs 300 pounds and is a mammoth human being. They did strip sack drills and he was running pretty smoothly.
