Quick hitters from Arizona’s training-camp practice Monday morning on campus:
* Wildcats coach Rich Rodriguez said it was the first time in camp that the team looked "a little soft,” and he demonstrably told the players as much afterward.
* The UA practiced in full pads after having the day off Sunday and working without pads or helmets Saturday.
* Rodriguez said freshman tackle Keenan Walker still isn't part of the 105-player camp roster but is doing rehab work for an undisclosed injury. Walker also had an off-field incident last month.
* Receiver Tony Ellison, who missed most of last week (undisclosed), participated in the portion of practice open to the media.
* Offensive lineman Christian Boettcher remained in a green jersey (limited) and continued to deliver snaps, possibly indicating he's part of the center mix.
* Defensive lineman Calvin Allen remained out because of an undisclosed injury.
* Defensive line coach Vince Amey said Justin Belknap has been the most pleasant surprise of camp among the D-linemen. Belknap is a walk-on who's "running with the ones," Amey said.
* Rodriguez says there's no update on the eligibility status of receiver Zach Benjamin, who's hoping to be able to play in 2016 after transferring from South Florida. Benjamin is paying his own way at the UA.
* Placekicker combatants Josh Pollack and Edgar Gastelum both made 3 of 4 field-goal attempts during the open portion of practice.
* Several players lingered after practice to do extra stretching and/or drills.
* NFL scouts from the Eagles, Patriots and Giants attended practice.
* UA safeties coach Jahmile Addae told some great stories, including how he had to stop playing football because of a heart condition. I’ll have more on him later.
