Your Indianapolis Colts training camp update
Being that we're roughly 2,000 miles from Terre Haute, where the Colts annually hold their training camp, we can't provide much in the way of first-hand observations. But we have several spies that can, which we'll relate to you day after day until this NFL season finally - finally! - kicks off.
First, the Corey Simon debacle continues. Apparently, he came to Indy for a physical on Friday, which the Colts say he failed. Simon's agent says he's not aware of the results and he's "not sure" why Simon was told not to report to Terre Haute. Rumor has it that Simon was spotted at a Florida State (his alma mater) recruiting party not too long ago and looked grossly overweight. We're guessing he stepped in the door for his physical, the doctors took one look at him and phoned Bill Polian, whose forehead proceeded to erupt.
Next, there’s the left tackle situation, as the sudden retirement of Tarik Glenn leaves a gaping hole at the premier offensive line position. Tony Ugoh has the first crack at winning the starting job, but if the second preseason game rolls around and Sorgi and Navarre are spending any time on their back, expect that to change.
Reggie Wayne continues to thrill fans with his eccentric training camp entrances.
Joseph Addai, apparently, looked rather thuggish upon his arrival. We refuse to believe this, but our sources never lie. Or do they?
Daymeion Hughes has decided to be known by his middle name, Dante, which we thing is a bad decision. Really, we could have had Satan playing corner with The Eraser playing over the top. How awesome would that’ve been?
Speaking of The Eraser, he’s started the season on the PUP list. Sanders is still recovering from offseason surgery, and we say let him take all the time he needs. If he wants to wait until week six, fine by us. As long as he’s around for the stretch run.
We’ll have more updates later today and throughout the week as we continue our correspondence with our Colts insiders.
