WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Purdue Football continued its fall camp schedule on a sunny Tuesday morning (Aug. 5) at the Bimel Outdoor Practice Complex. 

Tuesday's practice comes before Purdue's second day off of fall camp on Wednesday. The Boilermakers will then be in full pads for the first time during fall camp on Thursday. 

The Boilers had their final players-only media session on Tuesday that featured defensive back An'Darius Coffey, wide receiver Michael Jackson III, defensive lineman TJ Lindsey and offensive lineman Ethan Trent.

Shortly after the Boilermakers completed Tuesday's practice, running back Devin Mockobee was named to the Doak Walker Award Watch List for a third straight season. The award is presented annually to the nation's top collegiate running back.

The recognition is Mockobee's second of the season after he was named to the Wuerffel Trophy Watch List for his community service, academic excellence and athletic achievement on July 31. 

Mockobee is Purdue's leading rusher in each of the last three seasons and enters the 2025 season sixth in program history in 100-yard rushing games (eight), ninth in rushing yards (2,466) and 10th in rushing touchdowns (19). He is 1,170 rushing yards away from Mike Alstott's career rushing record.
