Tuesday afternoon practice update

GEORGETOWN, Ky. -- Carson Palmer practiced for the fourth time in five practices today. The team worked in full pads, and coach Marvin Lewis stopped practice at the mid-way point to yell at his players. At one point, overheard from the sidelines, Lewis said, apparently in reference to the heat and humidity, "I don't want to hear any more about it." He also screamed, "Then get the hell out of here."

Palmer rolled to his left on one play and threw across his body to complete a pass. He looked more mobile today than previously. ... Much of practice was spent on kickoff coverage. Rookie seventh-round pick Ethan Kilmer flies down the field on kick coverage and looks for somebody to hit. ... Wide receiver Antonio Chatman (hip contusion) did not practice for the second day in a row. ... Rookie linebacker Ahmad Brooks intercepted a pass and showed nimble feet and speed on the return.

I'm starting to get pretty excited about this Brooks. He really sounds like the man. Are they showing any 3-4 looks on defense at all?

If Brooks turnsout to be a savior at MLB; What about trying Thurman at either safety spot. Similar to a Fulcher type player with possibly more speed.
