Below are the sights, sounds, and observations from Day 16 of training camp.

Boston College Training Camp Day 16 Notebook

• Wide receivers Ned Boldin Jr., and Lewis Bond showcased some big releases in 1v1. Boldin has been showing potential during camp.
• WR Cedric Lott Jr., caught a deep ball from Dylan Lonergan in 1v1.
• The 11v11 period started with a few offside penalties. Unsure if it was the defense or offense that moved first, but there was definitely too much early movement/jumping.
• Dylan Lonergan scrambled for a first down in the corner of the field, showcasing his running ability. 
• DB Charlie Comella recorded an interception. He is starting to get more looks with starters and backups. 
• WR Ismael Zamor and Boldin both caught first-down passes from QB Grayson James. 
• In an 11v11 1st-and-10 from the 40-yard line, LB Jason Hewlett forced an incompletion on a pressure against Dylan Lonergan, DL Josiah Griffin forced an incompletion from Grayson James, and RB Bo MacCormack had a catch and a run which both resulted in a first down. 
• In 7v7, Bill O'Brien was going up to the snapper and wetting the balls to make it harder for Lonergan and James to throw and for the receivers to catch.
• Dylan Lonergan threw a touchdown pass to RB Jordan McDonald. 
• CB Amari Jackson recorded a pass breakup against WR Reed Harris and is showing lots of improvement since returning from his season-ending injury. 
• Grayson James connected with TE Kaelen Chudzinski and Zamor. LB Bryce Steele nearly had an interception on the pass to Zamor. 
• On a long third down in 11v11, Dylan Lonergan scrambled for a first down and connected with Bond for two first downs. 
• In the red zone 11v11, LB Daveon Crouch recorded a tackle for loss and Dylan Lonergan threw a touchdown pass to WR Jaedn Skeete. 
• Chudzinski brought in a one-handed touchdown catch from Grayson James. 
• MacCormack recorded a touchdown run. 
• DB Syair Torrence had a pass breakup against Skeete. 
• Grayson James hit Harris for a touchdown reception. 
• DB Omar Thornton recorded a pass breakup against Harris on a deep ball from Dylan Lonergan and picked off Lonergan a couple plays later. 
• DL Edwin Kolenge had a sack and a tackle for loss. 
• Both kickers, Luca Lombardo and Liam Connor, missed a 45-yard field goal attempt for the "win."
