A.J. Green! A.J. Green! These kids went nuts for the #Bengals wideout on way into camp. https://t.co/huXD49F53z — Jim Owczarski (@JimOwczarski) July 29, 2016 No surprise as for the first time cornerbacks.

On the offensive side Jake Kumerow is getting early reps with Andy Dalton — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016 Cedric Ogbuehi is the assumed Bengals starting right tackle for 2016.

Cedric Ogbuehi is also currently at Right Tackle. His job to lose coming into camp — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016 Looks like Chykie Brown is currently ahead of Chris Lewis-Harris on the depth chart. Though, it's day one and that means very little.

Second team D is getting reps now and the corners are Dennard and Chykie Brown — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Second team defense currently has Trevor Roach as the MLB with Nick Vigil and PJ Dawson on his outside — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

No surprise absences at first #Bengals practice. All accounted for but PUPs Wright, Thompson, Eifert and NFI Burfict — Jay Morrison (@JayMorrisonCMG) July 29, 2016

The loss of Hue Jackson does not mean there won't be pre-snap shifts, apparently...

It appears the pre snap shifts are still in the playbook. AJ McCarron using them now — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

https://t.co/QC4Pr45iQE clock reads 84 degrees as they stretch for first practice of 2016 — Geoff Hobson (@GeoffHobsonCin) July 29, 2016

As expected, Ryan Hewitt is back after missing the end of last season with a knee injury and all of OTAs due to an unknown, unrelated procedure.

First look at HBack Ryan Hewitt this year after sitting out spring — Geoff Hobson (@GeoffHobsonCin) July 29, 2016

Team breaks it down at midfield and camp is officially underway. Defense taking the far field, offense on the near field — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Chris Crocker is in the house (and by house, I mean practice field)! He's coaching with the team this summer as part of the Bill Walsh Minority Coaching Fellowship program.

The Bengals' quarterback group is ready to work!

Tyler Boyd is wearing #83. You should keep an eye on the rookie wide receiver this summer.

Getting down to the basics.

Who's excited to see what the Bengals' rookie wide receiver out of Canada's University of Calgary is capable of?

Rashaun Simonise has a body frame that's strikingly similar to AJ Green. Eager to see what he's capable of. Also has 4.48 speed — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Originally a linebacker, Jeff Luc is experimenting at different positions this summer including fullback. The University of Cincinnati product has some fans in attendance at practice today.

More on Hewitt:

Not that there was a question about this, but H-Back Ryan Hewitt is a full go for the #Bengals - missed all of OTA/mini-camp. — Jim Owczarski (@JimOwczarski) July 29, 2016

A look at Andy Dalton and A.J. Green, but more importantly, Dalton and Boyd.

Just like old times ... and new times. Dalton pitch and catch with A.J. and rookie Tyler Boyd. #Bengals pic.twitter.com/G5YjkJ8UtB — Jay Morrison (@JayMorrisonCMG) July 29, 2016

Dalton to Green.

Andy to AJ. A video posted by Lindsay Patterson (@lindsaypatterson) on Jul 29, 2016 at 12:26pm PDT

Check out Simonise.

Bengals fans will not like this...

Brandon Tate with a beautiful deep reception beating Dre deep on first 7 on 7 snap — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Until you see this... Ok, Tyler Boyd...

Third snap of camp: Boyd reverse TD pass to Tate on a dime — Geoff Hobson (@GeoffHobsonCin) July 29, 2016

Likely to be the talking point of the day....

How's this for versatility? #Bengals WR Tyler Boyd just took a pitch from Andy Dalton, threw Go route to Brandon Tate. Mohamed Sanu who? — Coley Harvey (@ColeyHarvey) July 29, 2016

3rd play of 11 on 11 session Tyler Boyd takes pitch on reverse and throwsTD bomb to Brandon Tate who beat Dre Kirkpatrick. @Local12 — Richard Skinner (@Local12Skinny) July 29, 2016

Hue, who?

Pretty sure that was also new OC Ken Zampese trying to show off a little. That answers any questions about the dynamism of #Bengals new O — Coley Harvey (@ColeyHarvey) July 29, 2016

Bengals figuring out ways to replace Mohamed Sanu's lost versatility.

Will we see Tyler Boyd pull a Mo Sanu this season? He just did in camp with a throw to Tate. — Lindsay Patterson (@LndsPatterson) July 29, 2016

More cool stuff off the practice fields...

Andy with a beautiful run fake, getting a nice 15 yard completion to Ryan Hewitt off the bootleg — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

The Canadian product Rashaun Simonise looking good so far, just cut in front of Dennard for a nice reception — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Kumerow catching a bomb - that'll impress the coaching staff — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

As a fifth year veteran should do on a rookie...

Kirkpatrick dominating Tyler Boyd on a deep ball, almost coming away with an interception — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

first Dalton-Green bomb. Perfect in stride with AJ getting past Quez. — Geoff Hobson (@GeoffHobsonCin) July 29, 2016

Normally one of the quietest coaches on staff, TEs Jonathan Hayes is loud and lovin' it today watching Kroft and Uzomah make plays. #Bengals — Jay Morrison (@JayMorrisonCMG) July 29, 2016

What's turning heads today?

Highlights from first half of first #Bengals camp date: Dalton to Green, Uzomah great route on Iloka, Boyd to Tate deep combo. — Jim Owczarski (@JimOwczarski) July 29, 2016

Andrew Billings, ladies and gentleman.

Interesting... Especially considering all the prior positive notes about the offense.

First team offense was essentially shut down by defense on first four snaps — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Sounds like it's been a good first day for Boyd:

And Tyler Boyd gets something going with a nice sideline reception for about 10 — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Another year, another impressive start to training camp for the Bengals' safety.

Offense getting tricky with a reverse to Mario Alford, but Derron Smith sniffed it out and was there — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

As his position calls for...

#Bengals rookie WR Tyler Boyd (No. 83) doesn't just throw passes. He catches them, too. pic.twitter.com/IdHrvHEFgE — Coley Harvey (@ColeyHarvey) July 29, 2016

More on fan-favorite, Kumerow:

Kumerow does a nice job coming back to a ball thrown a little behind by Dalton to make a reception — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Great for Kumerow. Not great for Kirkpatrick.

Jake Kumerow out here doing his thing. Beat Dre K on back-to-back plays. Continues to impress. #Bengals — Joe Danneman (@FOX19Joe) July 29, 2016

While the defense was in control for the first set of team, the offense is fighting back now in the second half of practice — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Adam Jones showing off a bit on special teams.

Pacman told us yesterday he once caught a 7th ball with 6 already in arms. Taking it easy today w/ 2. #Bengals pic.twitter.com/Iw9kbbZTHD — Jay Morrison (@JayMorrisonCMG) July 29, 2016

AJones, Gio only guys catching punts in this special teams period — Geoff Hobson (@GeoffHobsonCin) July 29, 2016

More on Kumerow, again.

Aside from A.J. Green, Jake Kumerow has been the #Bengals WR who has gotten the most consistent applause from... https://t.co/YE3xJWmrF7 — Coley Harvey (@ColeyHarvey) July 29, 2016

You know practice is winding down when special teams is in full focus.

Coach Lewis paying special attention to the punt team now that we've gone special teams

— Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

But there is more action elsewhere, too.

We've got some 7 on 7 work near the end of practice. Starts with an Andy to A.J. connection — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Beautiful sideline grab with defenders around by C.J. Uzomah — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

We like this! But, Peters is going to need to do A LOT to make the roster.

The 6 foot 8 John Peters makes a tumbling catch along the sideline — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Almost autograph time!

Truth.

George Illoka is the most terrifying looking safety I've ever seen. The man is a monster up close — Braden Whited (@BradenWhited) July 29, 2016

Play of the day?

#Bengals play of the day was a DEEP ONE down the right side to @ajgreen_18 @WLWT pic.twitter.com/PkTqO3Wmn5 — Mark Slaughter (@MarkVSlaughter) July 29, 2016

Here.. watch football. AJ to Texas AM RB Tra Carson and then run by Eastern Michigan RB Bronson Hill. #Bengals pic.twitter.com/qxmU2e5MUS — Lance McAlister (@LanceMcAlister) July 29, 2016

Not the type of video you want to see, but as Mark Slaughter says, it's unique for Green.

Save this video. It's as rare as a #Bengals playoff win. An A.J. Green stone cold drop. pic.twitter.com/thoiqQmVqE — Jay Morrison (@JayMorrisonCMG) July 29, 2016

Nice note on sixth round draft pick, Cody Core:
