Overview

  • Training camp opened July 23 at Grand Park in Westfield with both Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones cleared to practice
  • Coaches have divided first-team reps evenly to evaluate each quarterback’s consistency, decision-making and arm endurance
  • The Colts are closely monitoring Richardson’s throwing workload after recurring AC joint issues limited his offseason throwing program
  • Owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon and GM Chris Ballard have publicly backed Richardson’s development timeline despite last season’s accuracy and injury concerns
  • Bet365 oddsmakers slightly favor Daniel Jones for the Week 1 start and the club has yet to name a definitive starter
