AFC Notes: A.J. McCarron, Chargers, Jaguars

A.J. McCarron

  • Mike Klis of 9News denies a rumor that has been circulating Wednesday morning that the Broncos are trying to acquire Bengals backup QB A.J. McCarron.
  • A source tells Nicki Jhabvala of the report:ย “It’s 150% false.

Chargers

Chargers HC Anthony Lynn said that first-roundย WR Mike Williams (back) was back at practice on Monday and running.

“Heโ€™s back on the grass,” Lynn said,ย via Eric D. Williams of ESPN. “Heโ€™s running. Heโ€™s doing well.”

โ€œWe just want him to keep progressing and not have any setbacks,โ€ Lynn added. โ€œAnd weโ€™ll see what happens.โ€

Williams is still expected to continue the plan put in place by specialist, Dr. Robert Watkins, and remains on the team’s active/physically unable to perform list for now.

Jaguars

Jaguars QB Blake Bortles says he’s the progress made by the team’s offense during training camp.

โ€œIt was about what we can do, how we react in the situation and how can we continue to get better,โ€ Bortles said, via Ryan Oโ€™Halloran of the Florida Times-Union. โ€œUp front, [the Patriots] single everybody up and that made everything one-on-one as far as the blocking schemes and then they do a lot of different things in coverage with their safeties, whether theyโ€™re sprinting their guys down or staying high and doing different stuff. . . .

โ€œThere is no doubt there has been some bad stuff thatโ€™s happened that we have to fix and continue to work on, but I think if you watched 7-on-7s [Tuesday] or 1-on-1s, there werenโ€™t a whole lot of times we got stopped. We just have to find a way to carry that over into the 11-on-11.โ€
