Notes:

After stretching, ASU started tackling drills with the player’s respective position groups. Once those drills were over, they switched over to ball protection drills.

In the short tempo drills, Wilkins and Barnett both completed short passes, with Darby making a few receptions.

Toward the end of the media availability, White threw a pass intended to Hodges, but it was tipped and intercepted.
