Excellent response - me too!!

Honestly - I think that "super bust" Trey Lance is on his way out the door. Brock Purdy starts and Sam Darnold is the backup - in my humble opinion.

I LOVE THIS RESPONSE!!! I choose to never read anything Gregg Doyel writes - but - saw just the first few sentences - and - had to reach out to the forum. I DO NOT think we are anywhere near the worst roster in decades. Are there some questions here and there - yep!! Do we have a rookie QB who is gonna take some expected "rookie lumps" - yep!! Do we have drama with our star RB who has pulled a "Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde" on the Colts - yep!!

Yeah - yeah - yeah - it's ONLY preseason football - BUT - let's be honest - we are ALL hyped to see tomorrow's first game. What are YOU watching for in the Colts @ Bills preseason game?

Gregg Doyel of the Indianapolis Star has already been "bashin' on the boys in blue"!! In a recent article - he indicated that the Colts would be fielding "the worst roster in decades" in 2023. Agree or disagree?

Thanks for sharing!!

RIP Sean Dawkins!! My thoughts & prayers go out to your family & friends - and - former coaches & teammates.

No surprise there. They paid a "kings ransom" for Trey Lance and have gotten bupkis in return. It honestly wouldn't surprise me if they cut Trey Lance.

I concur. My biggest question is - WHY - is he "rehabbing" away from the team? Shouldn't he be rehabbing with the Colts training staff?

Taylor is currently on the PUP list. Placing him on IR would mean the Colts would pay him for the whole season - but - he wouldn't play a down. I don't see that happening. After having Jim Irsay proclaim JT completely healed and ready for camp - and - Shaq Leonard "we'll see" - one wonders why JT is on the PUP list.

Shane Steichen announced that Richardson would play the first quarter with the starters. Best wishes - best wishes - best wishes!! Can hardly wait to see this team on the field against another team. QB Josh Allen and WR Stefon Diggs WILL NOT play for the Bills on Saturday night per Sean McDermott.

May God bless Marlon Mack in his recovery from this season-ending injury. Regrettably - this may have been his last chance at a come back.

Jonathan Taylor is under contract for this year - and - Irsay has already emphatically announced that he won't be traded now or in October before the trade deadline. A deal couldn't be reached with Kareem Hunt. With Taylor rehabbing away from the team - Zach Moss with a broken arm - and - Deon Jackson injured - the team is doing their due diligence for RB depth for the preseason and first couple of weeks of the season. Once Taylor starts missing game $$$ - he'll be back on the field.

It will be shown in the local Indianapolis marketing area as per league rules. Unsure of which channel at this point.

No depth chart released in the preseason means anything come time to prepare for Week 1.

Practice is practice - and - live game action is what counts - regardless of where you are drafted. We'll start to see what "shakes out" across the league once the preseason games begin. We are still a few weeks from the start of the regular season - and - as such - a lot of things can change - and - in a hurry.

I don't believe that the Colts have ANY intention of trading Jonathan Taylor!! I believe they are just doing their due diligence - in case JT is out for a while. Remember one thing: JONATHAN TAYLOR IS UNDER CONTRACT FOR THIS SEASON!! Remember another thing: Kenyan Drake and Kareem Hunt are BOTH on the "back 9" of their careers. ANYONE who thinks one or both of them could make up for the loss of Jonathan Taylor is on "goof juice"!!

DL Tyquan Lewis has been activated from the PUP list.

Per the "Around the NFL" staff: Colts running back Jonathan Taylor received an excused absence from practice as he continues to seek treatment for his ankle injury, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday on Inside Training Camp Live. Taylor has not been with the team since at least Monday, according to Rapoport, who says his absence will continue "for a little bit" as he hopes to ensure he's 100% healthy when the 2023 season begins. "Who he plays for when that season begins is a whole other topic," Rapoport added on ITC Live. "Obviously, that's something we've discussed -- the trade request is still outstanding -- but that is going on with Taylor today." A trade request came about following Taylor's meeting with Colts owner Jim Irsay last month. The former All-Pro wants a contract extension that puts him in line with the league's highest-paid running backs, but the Colts have not yet made a contract offer, according to Rapoport. Taylor is coming off a down year that paled in comparison to the 24-year-old's breakout campaign in 2021. The ankle injury certainly factored into Taylor's subpar season, which was limited to 11 games and saw career lows in just about every stat category imaginable. He underwent surgery on the ankle in January. While his status with Indianapolis remains in question, Taylor will be rehabbing his ankle for a full return, wherever that may be.
