Joe Haden heard from coach Eric Mangini about Tweeting in-house team business.CLEVELAND, Ohio -- News and notes from the morning session and Eric Mangini's press conference, Aug. 10:
• Mangini talked to Joe Haden this morning about revealing a fine for a cell phone going off in a team meeting. "I think our social media is a work in progress,'' said Mangini with a chuckle. "Sometimes with ironing you have to add a little steam. They're young. We're entering new ground.'' He said he'll talk to GM Tom Heckert and the two will try to work out some guidelines.
• Starting cornerback Eric Wright left the field this morning with his leg wrapped, but Mangini hadn't talked to the trainers and didn't know if he'd be back for the evening session.
• Mangini showed the team clips of players getting hurt celebrating TDs in the aftermath of Brandon McDonald's front flip into the end zone during the scrimmage. McDonald is still out with a sore right ankle, but Mangini said it didn't happen on the flip.
• Right tackle Tony Pashos probably won't be out there this afternoon and maybe not this week. He suffered a shoulder injury on Monday and sat out this morning. John St. Clair is starting at RT.
• Mangini is looking forward to seeing rookie T.J. Ward play Saturday in Green Bay. "Part of his charm is the way he's able to hit and tackle. It'll be fun to see him get some live action.''
