FAYETTEVILLE -- University of Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green saw all he needed to see on his pre-snap read and the release from receiver Tyrone Broden.
Green knew 6-foot cornerback Jaylon Braxton was going to be in man coverage on the 6-7 Broden during the fourth snap of fastball starts to open Day 1 of practice for the Razorbacks, so he had his target.
"Yeah, I saw him in man coverage," Green said. "You know I love my guys in man coverage and they tell me all the time, 'Throw it up and I'm going to make a play,' which he did. He made it and it just set the tone for like the whole practice."
Broden set the tone with a leaping, one-hand catch while running full speed with Braxton right on his hip to set practice abuzz early on.
