Colts’ 2022 training camp roundup: Day 6
The Indianapolis Colts were on the field in full pads Thursday for the second time during training camp at the Grand Park Sports Campus in Westfield.
Given that the Colts are set to have two off days Friday and Saturday, they felt it was a good idea to get another physical practice in before the weekend.
Here’s a quick roundup of the news, notes and highlights from Day 6 of Colts training camp:

Defensive Line gets in on the fun
Good rep for the defense the first time through 11-on-11. Kwity Paye recovers a fumbled exchange between Matt Ryan and Jonathan Taylor, and DeForest Buckner and Yannick Nagakoue earn a “sack” against Ryan. #Colts

UDFA turns it on when the pads are on
JoJo Domann now with the “sack” against Nick Foles. Undrafted LB continues to impress in pads. #Colts

C.J. Verdell getting into a rhythm
Undrafted RB CJ Verdell flashing for the second straight day. Nice run between the tackles on first day. #Colts

Michael Pittman Jr. has arrived
Michael Pittman Jr. has arrived in training camp. It took a few days, but he’s starting to just bully Stephon Gilmore and Brandon Facyson on contested catches over the middle.

Ryan Kelly gets banged up, Danny Pinter moves to center
Ryan Kelly banged up, out for this 11-on-11 period.
Danny Pinter moves over to center. IU a product Jason Spriggs in at right guard.
First needed change to the OL this camp.

Spreading the love
Matt Ryan just went 6-of-6 to 6 different receivers in 11-on-11.
Parris Campbell said he likes to spread the ball around, and I guess he wasn’t joking.

Kelly returns

Julian Blackmon, Stephon Gilmore making plays
Very good series for the defense. Knockdowns by Stephon Gilmore and Julian Blackmon. Then a sack for Ifeadi Odenigbo.
Matt Ryan is 7-9. His day could be over. #Colts— George Bremer (@gmbremer) August 4, 2022
Jake Verity showing off some range
2-minute drill to end the full padded practice.
Starting offense first goes 3-and-out.
Get into field goal range on the second drive. Hot Rod and Jake Verity both make from 50. Some pop off Verity’s leg.

Matt Ryan has been sharp
Matt Ryan’s final numbers: 11-of-15 with a TD to Mo Alie-Cox. No INTs in 11-on-11 work for the starting QB yet. #Colts
