Welcome to the third day of training camp, as well as the first day of padded practices.
There have been a fair amount of new developments in camp already, as well as a couple of opportunities. With Tim Jennings taking practice off yesterday with a quad injury, Kelvin Hayden took some of the nickel snaps, and Kyle Fuller plenty more starter's reps.
Shea McClellin and Khaseem Greene both made some strong plays, and Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery returned to business as usual. Meanwhile, Jimmy Clausen so far may have taken the number two quarterback spot from Jordan Palmer.
What will happen today at padded practice? Let's find out. This is your open thread, and we'll recap it later.
