The Indianapolis Colts returned to the practice field Monday for their fourth practice of training camp at the Grand Park Sports Complex in Westfield.
After a day off Sunday, the Colts were thought to be in pads. However, it appears they were just shells (shoulder pads and pants) rather than the fully-padded attire.
Though rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson was not at practice due to a procedure to correct his nasal septum, there was still plenty going on at practice Monday.
Here’s a quick rundown of the news, notes and highlights from Day 4 of Colts training camp.
