WitP: Chad Owens, Brashton, LaBoy

Mighty Mouse does it again with a 117-yard return for a touchdown off a missed field goal.



He also had 2 catches for 30 yards. Here's what he had to say after the game:
“No pressure, man,” Owens said. “This is what I enjoy doing. I feel like I am in college again. I am out there playing the game with no pressure. When I am like that, I am at my best.”
Stephen Tsai profiled Brashton Satele, who has been invited to Jets training camp.
"We really like Brashton," New York Jets defensive coordinator Mike Pettine said of former University of Hawaii linebacker Brashton Satele.

Pettine said the Jets coaches are impressed with Satele, who was signed to a free-agent contract after playing well in a tryout in May.

"He's certainly a guy who has all of the tools to do it," Pettine said. "What impresses us is he's a three-down linebacker. A lot of linebackers can only play first and second downs. They don't have the coverage ability on third down. It's pretty obvious, from what he showed us, he can cover most tight ends, and he can cover most guys."
Former Warrior and current 49er Travis LaBoy, who's been working out at UH, offered pass-rushing tips to some current Warriors.
LaBoy is here on a vacation that ends today. He has been working out daily at UH in preparation for the start of the 49ers' training camp in three weeks. After observing the players-only practice, he decided to offer some advice.

"He's been through a lot," Umu said. "Having him talk to us means a lot."

LaBoy emphasized remaining focused, even while performing basic drills.

"If you're not aware in practice, you're not going to be aware in the game," LaBoy said. "If you're not aware in the game, you might get your head knocked off. It's always good to know what's going on."
