Oliver caught red zone target from McCarthy; velocity management discussed.

Josh Oliver was targeted by J.J. McCarthy in red zone drills during 2025 training camp, catching a pass in the back of the end zone. McCarthy's throw had such velocity that it went off Oliver's outstretched hand and hit the crossbar so hard it rang like a bell, prompting a discussion with Kevin O'Connell about managing velocity.
