Linebackers Anthony Barr and Eric Kendricks, center Joe Berger and defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd were not participating during the brief open part of practice today.
Barr was not on the field. Kendricks went to the locker room after stretching. Berger was on the field, but didn’t have a helmet and wasn’t participating.
Meanwhile, Floyd, who has missed the past two games with knee and ankle injuries, was running off to the side with trainers. It’s the first time he’s been seen doing that, so it’s a good sign that he’s making progress.
