Del Rio puts Jaguars through full-pads practice

Provided by Written on November 04, 2009

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.(AP) — Two days after ripping his team’s
defensive effort, coach Jack Del Rio had the Jacksonville
Jaguars in full pads.

The Jaguars gave up a franchise-record 305 yards rushing at
Tennessee in a 30-13 loss Sunday. Del Rio called the defensive
effort insulting, ugly and embarrassing.

Del Rio was so upset about missed tackles that he considered
having live tackling drills this week. He reconsidered, but only
because he was fearful of injury.

He settled on full pads. Jacksonville (3-4) took the practice
field Wednesday in full pads, a rare occurrence during Del Rio’s
seven seasons.
