Colts Training Camp ‘Day 9’: Quick Hits
In the sweltering early August heat, there were at least a few takeaways from this latest rendition of Colts camp practice.
The Indianapolis Colts held a training camp practice on Sunday in the hot early August weather. The team will not practice again until next weekend before their Thursday night preseason opener against the New England Patriots. Here are some notable highlights from the session:
Daniel Jones had several challenges during practice. In an 11-on-11 team "red zone" period, he completed a pass for Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, but it was tipped and picked off by rookie safety AJ Haulcy. Additionally, he was sacked by Jaylahn Tuimoloau on the first play of the "move the ball" period, with the ball finding Jonathan Taylor's hands, who then was picked off by Cam Bynum.
Rookie running back Seth McGowan showcased his skills, breaking free for a 25-yard touchdown run just two plays later. The offense, down by one and with 33 seconds remaining, still managed to score a touchdown.
Wide receiver Anthony Richardson connected with a rocket pass down the sideline on the 2nd team offense in the 2-minute drill, resulting in a big gain for rookie Deion Burks.
Justin Walley, a cornerback, participated in position drills but did not take part in any of the first set of 11-on-11s or 7-on-7s. He left the camp with a hamstring injury. Other players reported out today include WR Josh Downs (groin), WR Laquon Treadwell (hamstring), RB DJ Giddens (hamstring), S Hunter Wohler (hamstring), LB CJ Allen (hamstring), WR Alec Pierce (PUP-ankle), and DT Tim Smith, who is back after missing several practices.
Spencer Shrader continued to struggle with his field goals, missing three of four attempts from left, all of them being left kicks.
