OnlyU is the best person to answer this but what I was told (second hand) was two reasons – biggest one was that they know what they have with the two of them and they particularly wanted to see how the other quarterbacks were doing; the second has to do with a program-level initiative to make sure the players sustain less injury in training camp. Last year, many of the players affected by nagging injuries experienced the first of them in training camp. It was determined that number of days in a row that they did contact practices may have been a factor. I think most of us saw Kyle’s breakdown at the beginning of camp that the U was moving to an NFL model where contact practices would be spaced out.
I hope it works. Coach Scalley has emphasized how important being physical – specifically tackling live, is for the defense. He never wants to practice like they did for the Covid season and to a certain extent the next season. I don’t mean to say that he is contrary to the practice schedule but it seemed like an important perspective and the U is trying to find a balance.
