Colts Training Camp Journal Day 2 Matt R

Colts Training Camp Journal Day 2 Matt R

The Indianapolis Colts held their second training camp practice of the summer on Thursday, and they were back outside in a scorcher after the previous day's practice was moved indoors.According to the team, Thursday's attendance was the largest crowd they've had for training camp since 2018.For the second consecutive day, practice ended about 10 minutes early, which head coach Frank Herman Edwards Jersey Reich later attributed to quarterback Matt Ryan having the offense move at a high tempo. Sounds like he's in control, right?The Colts will have a day off on Friday before hosting their only night practice of camp on Saturday evening.I roamed the sidelines once again for the duration of practice and now give you the contents of my daily journal. Rookie defensive tackle Eric Johnson II was activated from the Active/Non-Football Injury list on Thursday morning and participated in practice. Likewise, defensive lineman Tyquan Lewis returned to the field Thursday after being activated Wednesday from the Physically Unable to Perform list. The only new absence was defensive tackle Chris Williams not participating. The team remained in helmets and shells and have not yet gone with full pads, but we did get to see 1-on-1 drills pitting wide receivers and tight ends against cornerbacks and safeties. The offense won the day, 15-11. Here's how the reps went below. Note: The defense gets the win based on any non-penalized incompletion. BrandonFacyson def. Michael Pittman Jr.; Mo Alie-Cox def. Rodney McLeod; Parris Campbell def. Kenny Moore II; Stephon Gilmore def. Alec Pierce; Marvell Tell III def. Ethan Fernea; Kylen Granson def. Nick Cro s; DeMichael Harris def. Anthony Chesley; Dezmon Patmon def. Isaiah Rodgers; Ashton Dulin def. Tony Brown (large gain down left sideline from Matt Ryan); Jelani Woods def. Will Redmond; Keke Coutee def. Alex Myres; Isaiah Ford def. Chris Wilcox (nice diving catch over back shoulder near right sideline); Dallis Flowers def. John Hurst; Rodney McLeod def. Drew Ogletree; Moore def. Michael Young Jr.; Samson Nacua def. Wilcox; Pittman def. Facyson (penalty); Michael Jacobson def. Armani Watts; Chesley def. Nyheim Hines; Gilmore def. Pierce (pa s breakup); Trevor Denbow def. Nikola Kalinic; Reggie White Jersey Campbell def. Myres; Patmon def. Rodgers; Julian Blackmon def. Alie-Cox; Moore def. Harris; Ford def. Wilcox The participants of the first offensive group remained intact, including QB Ryan, RB Jonathan Taylor, WR Pittman, WR Pierce, WR Campbell, TE Alie-Cox, LT Matt Pryor, LG Quenton Nelson, C Ryan Kelly, RG Danny Pinter, and RT Braden Smith. RB Hines, WR Dulin, WR Patmon, TE Granson, TE Woods, and TE Ogletree also saw action with this group. As for the offense's second group, that includedQB Nick Foles, RB Deon Jackson, WR Patmon, WR Coutee, WR Harris, TE Woods, LT Bernhard Raimann, LG Carter O'Donnell, C Will Fries, RG Jason Spriggs, and RT Dennis Kelly. RB Hines, RB Phillip Lindsay, and TE Ogletree also saw action with this group. Ryan Jalen Mills Jersey had another sharp day, both in 7-on-7s and 11-on-11s, although there were several drops throughout the day for each unit of the offense. Ryan finished the day8-of-9 pa sing with completions toAlie-Cox (3), Campbell, Pittman, Patmon, and Hines.One of Ryan's most productive completions was to Alie-Cox, who Ryan found wide open cro sing toward the right sideline, and then Alie-Cox turned upfield for a gain of roughly 20 yards. Foles looked to push the ball downfield throughout 7-on-7s and 11-on-11s. Overall in 11s, he was 2-of-5 pa sing with completions to Woods and Hines.Scroll to ContinueFoles had a handful of productive plays throughout the day. On one, he hit Woods for about 20 yards along the right side.Foles also found Coutee (over Rodgers) on a deep post about 40 or so yards down the right seam. The veteran QB also found Dulin on a cro ser near DeSean Jackson Jersey the left side hash for roughly 20 yards.The biggest mi sed play of the day came when Foles found Pierce streaking down the right side. Foles placed the throw perfectly in between two defenders for a sure touchdown but the ball bounced off of Pierce's hands. Quarterback SamEhlinger had a nice throw as he hit Nacua on a corner route for about 25 yard along the left side. The Colts showed a sign of faith in Jackson, who fumbled twice on Wednesday but remained the next man up after Jonathan Taylor and Hines on Thursday. Much like Wednesday, Thursday's first defensive group didn't have many surprises to it, particularly with DeForest Buckner back on the field. It included DE Yannick Ngakoue, DT Buckner, DT Grover Stewart, DE Kwity Paye, LB Bobby Okereke, LB Zaire Wes Hopkins Jersey Franklin, CB Gilmore, CB Facyson, SLOT Moore, FS Blackmon, and SS Cro s. LB E.J. Speed also came in when they went to base defense. With new defensive coordinator Gus Bradley coming in and installing his scheme, it appears they truly are giving all players a chance to prove themselves. All three of the first, second, and third units continued to be rotated on Thursday. If you're on the defensive roster, you probably saw action with a little bit of everyone again on Thursday. There weren't many would-be sacks to note. The biggest one came from Speed, who had a wide-open opportunity to get Ryan during 11-on-11s. There were a couple of big defensive plays against the run. One came when Moore blew up an end-around for Pittman right as the receiver got the ball. Another came when Paye and R.J. McIntoshended a play in the backfield on Hines as soon as he got the ball. Rookie undrafted free agent linebacker Jojo Domann broke up a Foles pa s and nearly had an interception on the play.There still was no placekicking on Thursday, but they did practice punts. Hines, Coutee, and Rodgers were the return men.
