I couldn't find the previous thread about players warming up and stretching at the start but it's one of the things I took note of during the Senior Bowl practices.

Monday was helmets and shoulders pads, Tuesday was full gear. Both days the players were taken via bus from their hotel to the stadium-about a ten minute ride.

When they got off the bus they mingled in the end zone and did whatever. When practice started they did two sets of light drills by position. After about 15 minutes of drills, the horn sounded and it was stretching time as a team. No more than five minutes and almost exclusively working on legs and back/torso. No neck rolls, no arm stretching.

Weather was below 50 degrees for all the practices so it wasn't like they were sweating just standing around.
 
If you ever get to an NFL training camp, watch their warm up, it is almost the same. I guess this makes sense as NFL staffs run the Senior Bowl practices.
