Jordan Raanan (@JordanRaanan): Rookie first-round pick Francis Mauigoa left practice in Miami. It's not believed to be serious. A heat-related issue. Humidity is off the charts in South Florida.

Later clarified the exit as a 'stinger type thing' and 'not a serious thing,' suggesting the rookie's departure was precautionary. Between the heat explanation and the stinger clarification, Mauigoa's exit appears to be a non-event rather than a meaningful injury scare.
