and Hey everybody welcome to another episode of Purple Insider. Matthew Collar here just returning

from TCO Performance Center where we were out there for another practice today and I have to say there were a few highlights but it was a less

intense practice than we had seen over the last couple of padded practices so fewer

takeaways I think but what we're starting to see is the roster and the depth

chart come together and how about it folks they released the unofficial depth chart as all teams do and then they remind us that it is not

official and so don't take it too seriously to be the real depth chart but you what? Here's how I look at it. It's always a step toward the season for the team to release its first unofficial depth chart. And you know what that is for you guys and for us reporters?

Addison very very impressive throw from Darnold one of those deep balls that he has

been doing almost on a daily basis now at this point.

As we're watching practice, of course wondering where's Justin Jefferson is there an injury is there an issue

personal day excuse absence that's why he was not here I expect that he'll be back tomorrow.

So not a big deal that Justin Jefferson was gone.

Christian Darisaw, though, I do maybe have a little bit of concern for her, but just slight.

We'll see if it becomes a thing where he's out for multiple days. concern for
