"He had to lay back a little bit because he was doing too much," Bruins receiver Christian Pabico said Thursday of his teammate's workload being tracked by coaches with the device. "They want to save our legs because it's still spring ball, we still got a long ways to go."
Some things remain familiar for the receivers amid all the changes. Pabico still works with receivers coach Jimmie Dougherty, a holdover assistant from the previous staff who championed his rise into the playing rotation last season. And Pabico said his memory of the spread concepts favored by former offensive coordinator Noel Mazzone has helped accelerate his understanding of Kelly's offense.
