Dog day afternoon: Thursday update

Just watched one of the lowest-tempo practices ever. Not sure if they were planning on going in pads and scaled back, but their last normal practice before the preseason opener had a leisurely feel.

The only real news to come out of it was that they cut T Charles Spencer.

Coach John Fox said it really wasn't because of Spencer's balky knee, which kept him out of football for 22 months. Instead, he cited a "conditioning issue."

Fox said they'd consider bringing Spencer back, but it's clear they weren't thrilled with the shape he showed up in.
