Top Plays from Wednesday's practice

If the receivers were declared the winners on Tuesday, then Wednesday belonged to the defensive backs, who managed several nice pass breakups and a couple of interceptions during offense versus defense periods.

Jamell Fleming had a couple of nice pass breakups and an interception during team drills. On two of the pass breakups, Fleming had perfect timing to knock the ball down as the receiver attempted to bring it in to make the catch. On the interception, Fleming broke in front of the receiver to pick off the attempted pass from Chase Daniel.

Marcus Cooper had a nice pass breakup along the sideline on what would have been a nice pickup for the offense on a pass intended for tight end Adam Schiltz. Schiltz made the catch and was in the process of getting his feet down before he went out of bounds. That's when Cooper swiped at the ball and knocked it out of Shiltz's hands before he could secure the ball going to the ground.

Phillip Gaines had another nice play on Wednesday as he stepped in front of an Alex Smith pass that was intended for Chris Conley.

On the offensive side, the best catch of the day came from receiver Da'Rick Rogers, who made a nice one-handed catch down the seam. It was a nice pass from Daniel that gave Rogers a chance to make a play, which was definitely a head-turning moment for the offense on Wednesday.
