With the majority of NFL training camps underway, the league is abuzz with position battles, injury news and rookies making an immediate impact. Each day, TSN.ca provides the latest rumours, reports and speculation from around the NFL beat. Johnny the Sub? In an interview with ESPN Cleveland, Browns head coach Mike Pettine said the team has already discussed having quarterback Johnny Manziel run set package plays in order to get him on the field in his rookie year. "We ran some of the zone-read stuff in practice and Kyle (Shanahan) incorporated some of the mobile quarterback elements of what he did in Washington," Pettine said. Were still going to go back to the beginning in pads, but as we get going, some of the stuff thats more game plan-specific that we dont want to show, we might work on in our walk-throughs as opposed to a public practice." Pettine noted that the strategy has been successful for other quarterbacks, and therefore he wont rule out the possibility. "Ive seen that work, so Im not close-minded to that," Pettine added. "Thats how Colin Kaepernick got his start in the NFL, as a package quarterback. On the other side of the ball, Ive seen that give defenses some trouble. I think theres positives and negatives to it. Youre taking your starter off the field. You have his rhythm and continuity to take into account, but at the same time defensively youre now forcing a team to basically come up with two game plans. I mean, there are pluses and minuses to it and its something Im sure will be discussed at some point. Im willing to say that the starter will be against it and the backup will be for it." Pettine reiterated that the Browns starting quarterback will be named by the teams third preseason game on August 23, but said he has not decided whether both Manziel and quarterback Brian Hoyer will each start a preseason game before that. Hoyer will start the Browns first preseason game. Andres Arrival After requesting a trade this offseason and skipping several team workouts, Andre Johnson reported to training camp on Friday. Johnson has spent all 11 of his NFL seasons with the Texans after being selected by the third-overall in the 2003 NFL Draft. The 33-year-old hauled in 109 passes last season for 1,407 yards and five touchdowns. Johnson was reportedly unhappy the Texans refused to use the first-overall pick in Mays draft on a quarterback. The team used the pick on defensive end Jadeveon Clowney. Veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick is listed as the Texans starter under centre this season. Gronk Playing it Safe New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski practiced on Thursday with a brace on surgically repaired knee and a protective sleeve on his twice-broken right arm. Gronkowski underwent surgery to repair his torn ACL on January 9 and has yet to take place in any team drills at training camp. However, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN Boston, Gronkowski was running, cutting and planting without reluctance on Thursday. He also spent time catching passes from quarterback Tom Brady after practice. In seven games with the Patriots in 2013, Gronkowski had 39 catches for 592 yards and four touchdowns. Michael Thomas Jersey . "I honestly dont know," he said. Try this: 20 points, nine assists and seven rebounds by Rajon Rondo, a 62-37 rebounding advantage by the Celtics and a horrible 4-for-30 shooting performance on 3-pointers by the Nets. Jason Taylor Jersey . In the calls, Hernandez discussed the murder of Odin Lloyd, including his "belief about his criminal liability" and the "extent of his control over persons charged as accessories," according to the request filed Thursday in Fall River Superior Court. http://www.thedolphinsfansclub.com/Blac ... ml?cat=931. LOUIS -- The St. Leonte Carroo Jersey . Funny, they looked like longtime friends during Pittsburghs 5-1 demolition of Dallas on Tuesday night. Quick to the puck and even quicker to the net, the Penguins top line overwhelmed the suddenly struggling Stars as Pittsburgh bounced back from a dismal weekend sweep at the hands of Philadelphia by jumping on Dallas early. Cody Parkey Jersey .5 million, four-year contract with the Texas Rangers that could be worth $32.Borussia Dortmund should attack Liverpools weak link centre-halves to silence Anfield on Thursday, according to Steffen Freund. Liverpools 1-1 draw in Dortmund means the visitors will need to score at least once to deny former boss Jurgen Klopp a place in the last four of the Europa League.And former Tottenham midfielder Freund, a two-time Bundesliga winner with Dortmund, told Sky Sports News HQ a positive opening is the key to qualification. A good start in the game would be very good, he said. Dortmund should attack very early in the first ten minutes. They should try to force Liverpool to make mistakes.The central defenders of the Reds are the weakest links - Dejan Lovren and Mamadou Sakho. If they are under pressure, they make mistakes.An early goal might also dampen an Anfield atmosphere expected to rival that produced by Dortmunds famous Yellow Wall at their Signal Iduna Park home.dddddddddddd Dortmund have been warned to expect a lively Anfield atmosphere on Thursday Just dont be intimidated, is Freunds advice for his old club. Its the last chance for Liverpool to make it in the Champions League next year. In the Premier League they wont qualify.Its a very special stadium. Its so tight, loud and emotional. But Dortmund should have got used to that kind of atmosphere from their own stadium. They have probably the best stadium in Europe.
