Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Reggie McNeal bounced back with a strong Monday morning practice after dropping three passes in Saturday's Black-Orange Mock Game at Georgetown College's Toyota Stadium. "I know I had a bad day Saturday, but that's all in learning," McNeal said. "I'm going to continue to get better every day. and try not to drop anything." McNeal caught about 10 passes in the workout from 9-11 a.m. Many were tough catches over the middle and near the sidelines."That's a good thing about a quality player," wide receivers coach Mike Sheppard said. "He'll take something like that and turn it around into a motivation to do better the next time."
