Randy Thomas
6-foot-5, 308 pounds
Thomas said he, like the coaches, are concerned with his knee. But, he added, that’s nothing new.
‘‘I’ve been having concerns with my body for four or five years,’’ he said. ‘’That never stopped me from playing a game. I love the concerns. That just pushes me to prove them wrong. If that keeps a little doubt in people’s head, that makes me look better when I’m out there. … I’ll never be 100 percent the rest of my life.’’
Thomas participated in the nine-on-nine portion of practice, but did not take part in the full-team work. He said he’s not certain if he’ll play Thursday night vs. Baltimore.
Thomas underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in May.
‘’I don’t want this thing to blow up on me. I can admit I’m [33] and it’s going to take a little more time,’’ he said.
Will Montgomery
6-foot-3, 305 pounds
The Centreville native continues to have a strong camp as the No. 2 center. He’s doing a good job holding his ground and anchoring in pass protection. Montgomery, whom some in the organization say is playing with more attitude, also must show he can play guard, but has primarily worked at center this camp.
Edwin Williams
6-foot-3, 315 pounds
The ex-Terrapin has done a decent job at center, working with the No. 3 line. However, he needs to show a lot more at guard if he wants to make the roster. Williams is OK at setting up on pass drops, but he needs to get quicker so he can move in space. He also needs to improve his ability to pull at guard.
