FILE - In this Friday, July 26, 2019, file photo, Washington Redskins running backs Derrius Guice (29) and Adrian Peterson (26) run drills during the NFL football training camp in Richmond, Va. Adrian Peterson told Derrius Guice to grab some ice cubes and wrap them around his surgically repaired left knee. Guice chuckled a bit. “You're really old school,” Guice said. “We got all this Cryotherapy and stuff, and you're talking about bags of ice.” Old school, meet new school in the Redskins backfield headlined by a 34-year-old climbing the all-time rushing list and a 22-year-old itching to make his NFL debut 13 months after a torn ACL.

FILE - In this Jan. 20, 2019, file photo, New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady (12) leads the team onto the field for the AFC championship NFL football game against the Kansas City Chiefs in Kansas City, Mo. The Patriots have been playing down the fact they weren’t chosen for the opener of the NFL’s 100th season despite their latest Lombardi Trophy. But their coaching staff finds little items to push the players’ buttons, and Brady is as strong a motivator to teammates as anyone in the league. The Patriots play the Pittsburgh Steelers in Foxborough this week. (AP Photo/Elise Amendola, File)

Hyde said he and Buffalo's 10 returning defensive starters were so far ahead during the offseason re-introductory phase last spring the sessions felt a little too repetitive.
