Arizona State football had another successful day of practice on Tuesday - with the offense taking charge after a consistent stretch of the defense dominating for the most part.

ASU on SI takes a dive into standout players, general observations, and overall takeaways from the two hour practice below:

Standouts From Monday's Practice:

  • Jaren Hamilton
  • Justin Wodtly
  • Jalen Moss
  • Kyson Brown
  • Xavion Alford

Observations/Notes From Practice

  • Scouts from the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins were in attendance at practice.
  • Leavitt continues to show playmaking ability - had a pair of impressive scrambles when pocket collapsed. Leavitt also threw an incredible pass on a sideline shot to Malik McClain early on in the offense-defense part of practice.
  • Jesus Gomez had another strong day - particularly knocking down a 40 yard field goal indoors.
  • Kanye Udoh continues to work on receiving chops and continues to look more comfortable by the day.
  • Ben Coleman lined up at LG again, also took snaps at center.
  • Freshman QB Cameron Dyer was participating in throwing drills, looking sharp while seeking to be fully cleared to play.
  • Khamari Anderson/Ia excelling in red zone action. Ia also secured a downfield grab in zone from Jeff Sims.
  • Moss deep sideline shot on Offense-defense portion of practice, also found soft spot in zone later in practice. Third catch of the session was about 25 yards downfield. Moss capped it off with a touchdown in the situational red zone drill. Chamon Metayer secured an acrobatic catch 20 yards downfield.
  • Xavion Alford interception in end zone covering Kyson Brown.
  • Jaren Hamilton caught a 60 yard touchdown over the top. Incredible throw from Leavitt and play on the ball by Hamilton over CB Montana Warren.

General Takeaways

  • K. Brown appears to be separating himself in the RB postion battle.
  • The TE position group is an incredibly deep and talented unit - Jason Mohns has done an incredible job.
  • The EDGE position group continues to impress on a consistent basis. The pass rush should not be a major point of concern in 2025 compared to last year.
