Quarles makes a visit

Former linebacker Shelton Quarles made an appearance at this morning's practice at the request of coach Jon Gruden.

We're sure Quarles would rather have been suited up than in street clothes, but he seemed to be in good spirits and even exchanged pleasantries with general manager Bruce Allen, with whom he had a long-running dispute about his ability to continue playing that ultimately resulted in his release in April.
