Wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is heating up in the WR3 camp competition, suggesting potential depth chart movement and increased fantasy relevance in the Colts' receiving corps.

Rookie running back continued turning heads in the first week of camp, with fans discussing how shifty he looks in practice. Found daylight with the starting offense, showcasing quick feet in the backfield and sharp cuts that repeatedly created space. His burst and ability to make defenders miss have remained difficult to ignore through the first three practices, though it should be noted that without pads, defenders naturally ease up before full contact.

Competing for the backup quarterback job with Leonard entering his fourth NFL season. Delivered arguably the highlight of training camp on Friday while leading the third-team offense, selling a play-action fake before unleashing a 50-yard touchdown pass to Sahmir Hagans down the far right sideline—showcasing his rocket arm talent that has always made him dangerous. However, Richardson struggled with ball security, dropping two snaps and bobbling at least three others throughout practice, with two consecutive mishandled snaps ending the final team period immediately after his electrifying play.

Veteran WR competing for the third starting spot after the Colts traded away Michael Pittman Jr. Spent extensive time working with both first- and second-team offense during Friday practice, rewarding all three quarterbacks who looked in his direction. Made a contested highlight catch over cornerback Justin Walley during 11-on-11 team period, elevating to make the catch and racing to the end zone; also connected with Daniel Jones on a comeback route and shorter completions, plus hauled in routes from Anthony Richardson Sr. and Riley Leonard during second-unit work.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is getting increased WR3 snaps and looks during Colts training camp day 2, suggesting expanded offensive role and opportunity.

The source observed a crisper Daniel Jones during Colts training camp day 2, suggesting improved performance and command in practice.

QB Anthony Richardson Sr. sailed a pass intended for rookie receiver Deion Burks during 7-on-7 drills, which was intercepted by cornerback Cameron Mitchell and returned for a touchdown. However, Richardson responded in the final team session with perhaps his best throw of the morning, firing a strike over 20 yards downfield to receiver Anthony Gould on play action.

Tight end Tyler Warren developed a strong connection with QB Daniel Jones, fetching a handful of targets throughout Thursday's team periods. Jones looked to find Warren in rhythm on one play-action roll-right, though the pass was released just behind him due to pressure from Laiatu Latu, resulting in a pick-six. The source emphasizes Warren's target volume and connection with the starting QB.

Colts QB Daniel Jones completed 7-of-9 passes in an efficient practice session, operating the run-pass-option offense that led the NFL in yards per play (6.3) and points per game (29.8) prior to his season-ending Achilles injury last year. He showed command hitting Josh Downs on an out route, Ashton Dulin over the middle, Laquon Treadwell twice on dig routes, and developed a strong connection with tight end Tyler Warren, who fetched a handful of targets throughout team periods. His first visible mistake was a pick-six when defensive end Laiatu Latu pressured him, but the source notes there are no limits on what he's doing in another rather efficient practice.

Took first-team snaps with no ill effects in initial training camp practices; movement was reported as a non-issue. The source emphasizes that Jones replicating last year's performance is paramount to the season outlook and expresses optimism about the coming season.

Received second-team snaps over Darius Leonard in initial training camp practices; the source suggests low confidence in Richardson's long-term future with the Colts, noting that if a starting QB goes down elsewhere, a fourth-round pick would likely be offered and accepted for him.

First-round draft pick placed on PUP list with a minor calf issue; the source notes this caught most off guard but expresses optimism that unless the injury lingers beyond a couple of weeks, the team should be pleased with the initial report.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is currently a projected starter on the outside for the Indianapolis Colts, opposite of Alec Pierce when Pierce is fully healthy. He is one of two primary outside receiver options for the Colts alongside Ashton Dulin.

Ashton Dulin is currently a projected starter on the outside for the Indianapolis Colts, opposite of Alec Pierce when Pierce is fully healthy. He is one of two primary outside receiver options for the Colts alongside Nick Westbrook-Ikhine.

Alec Pierce is currently out of training camp commission for the next week or so, creating a depth chart opening at the Colts' outside receiver position. The projected starters on the outside opposite of Pierce, when he's fully healthy, are currently Ashton Dulin and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine. The Colts' potential interest in Chase Claypool is partly motivated by the need for a wide receiver upgrade along the outside given Pierce's temporary absence.

The Indianapolis Colts worked out veteran free agent wideout Chase Claypool, who hasn't appeared in an NFL game since 2023. The 28-year-old former 2020 2nd round pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers spent time with the Chicago Bears, Miami Dolphins, and Buffalo Bills during his initial 4-year NFL career. At 6'4", 238 pounds, Claypool was a big, physical possession wideout with vertical separation ability, similar in stature and playing style to recently departed Colts wideout Michael Pittman Jr. He was a RAS darling coming out of Notre Dame in 2020 with a 9.98 RAS grade, but whether he still has that peak athletic ability remains to be seen after being out of football for two seasons and quiet receiving seasons to end his initial career. The source notes it seems like a longshot that Claypool can regain his prior early career form with Pittsburgh, and this may be just an instance of the Colts doing an agent a solid or kicking the tires for due diligence purposes.
