Green kicked off the reps in both 11-on-11 periods and the 7-on-7 period.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think he&#8217;s carried over the Zoom meetings to this morning&#8217;s meetings and then walk[through],&#8221; Monken said. &#8220;He operated the offense pretty well, I mean, for someone who hadn&#8217;t been a part of it. Eyes weren&#8217;t always in the right spot, but you can see a couple of times some of the things he can do with his feet when plays break down. So that&#8217;s exciting to see.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>During the first 11-on-11 period, Green connected with WR <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" style=\"word-break:break-word\" href=\"https:\/\/www.clevelandbrowns.com\/team\/players-roster\/kc-concepcion\/\" title=\"KC Concepcion\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">KC Concepcion<\/a> on a deep pass downfield. He also found RB Ahmani Marshall for two passes, and a third to TE <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" style=\"word-break:break-word\" href=\"https:\/\/www.clevelandbrowns.com\/team\/players-roster\/joe-royer\/\" title=\"Joe Royer\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Joe Royer<\/a>. Barnes also took reps during the 11-on-11 period, in which he connected with tryout invitee TE Jyrin Johnson down the sideline, and handed the ball off twice to undrafted free agent signing RB Davon Booth.<\/p>\n<p>In the next 7-on-7 period, Green completed multiple passes to WR <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" style=\"word-break:break-word\" href=\"https:\/\/www.clevelandbrowns.com\/team\/players-roster\/denzel-boston\/\" title=\"Denzel Boston\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Denzel Boston<\/a>, TE Caden Prieskorn, WR Jalen Reagor, WR <a class=\"nfl-o-cta--link nfl-o-cta--underline\" style=\"word-break:break-word\" href=\"https:\/\/www.clevelandbrowns.com\/team\/players-roster\/luke-floriea\/\" title=\"Luke Floriea\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Luke Floriea<\/a> and Royer.<\/p>\n<p>Then in the final 11-on-11 period of practice, Green showcased his own speed as he held onto the ball and took off down the sideline as the play broke down on one of his reps. He also had a shuffle pass to Marshall and connected with tryout player WR Aaron Anderson on another rep. Barnes closed out the reps for the day by completing a short pass to Booth, a shuffle pass to Marshall and two more throws to tryout player WR Daejon Reynolds and Booth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"QB Taylen Green in team drills While the Browns brought in one quarterback on tryout in Bryson Barnes,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26421,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[16205,913,8,9,16204,7],"class_list":{"0":"post-26420","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-top-stories","8":"tag-adpartnerrookie_mini_camp_article","9":"tag-featured","10":"tag-headlines","11":"tag-news","12":"tag-rookie-mini-camp-article","13":"tag-top-stories"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@news\/116543163149841853","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26420","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26420"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26420\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26421"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26420"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26420"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26420"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
