Arrowhead Pride on Jalen Royals
From the article
Royals ran a shorter route, likely missing a route adjustment based on the pressure... a pass slightly behind him failed to be secured... The pass to Royals was off-target but catchable, yet fell to the turf again.
STACKED’s take
Royals struggled with route adjustments and drops in early team-period reps.
Second-year wide receiver Jalen Royals had a rough Day 1 of training camp, struggling with route adjustments and ball security in multiple team-period reps alongside Cyrus Allen, Xavier Worthy, and Tyquan Thornton. On one deep-pass attempt, Royals ran a shorter route and missed a likely adjustment based on pressure, causing an incompletion. Later, he failed to secure a pass slightly behind him that safety Chamarri Conner pried loose. On a third play, Royals ran an intermediate crossing pattern but dropped an off-target but catchable pass. Coach Reid acknowledged Royals needs to 'keep on with the reps and make sure he has a good relationship there with Pat and keeps developing that,' suggesting early-camp chemistry issues.
