Westbrook-Ikhine Heating Up WR3 Camp Competition?

#Colts QB Daniel Jones launched one deep to WR Nick Westbrook-Ikhine who got the best of CB Justin Walley in a jump ball scenario. Likely sacked in game, but still a strong rep for the newcomer.

NWI then kicked off the 2nd team's 11-on-11 session with another strong reception.

AR5 Has Play of Day' But Snap Struggles

Arguably the play of camp so far during 11s, Anthony Richardson Sr. avoided pressure, stepped up in the pocket and dropped it in a bucket down the right side from about 50 yards for a touchdown to Sahmir Hagans. Jaylon Jones had decent coverage.
