Toney, a wide receiver from Florida, tweaked his right foot during the first day of rookie minicamp, which he attributed to his cleats being the wrong size. Toney did not participate in the conditioning runs at the end of practice, although he indicated that was just a precaution, and he actually took off a shoe and briefly ran routes with a bare right foot as he tried his best to participate despite the shoe malfunction.
“I think it was just the wrong size,” Toney said, via the New York Daily News. “They’re figuring that out right now. . . . I do whatever it takes, you know what I’m saying? I probably have [done that before], honest. I don’t remember. It’s just me. That’s the dog mentality.” |
hoopla on BBI as to their attention to detail and coaching prowess.

Toney could have been seriously hurt...accidents happen. Who let him remove his shoe?

Somebody in the chain of command dropped the ball here. Maybe more than one person. It also could be Toney who didn't speak up when he should've and instead winged it.
I think we can chalk it up to inexperience on the rookie's behalf....I agree that this was a risk that there was no reason to take, but you gotta love that the kid wanted to show his coaches his work ethic!
You know Judge and etc took notice...great way to start off on the right foot, but with the wrong shoe haha
This smacks as Media Hooplah (horseshit)!
That makes sense. I’m half size larger in Nike than Adidas. You think he’d have all that squared away, nothing makes you feel slower than I’ll fitting cleats. Need those babies to hug.
