The Anthony Richardson-to-Alec Pierce connection dominated Indianapolis Colts practice on Friday.
The team held a short, hour-long practice without pads, and with defenders like DeForest Buckner and JuJu Brents out for rest days, quarterback Anthony Richardson took full advantage, putting together the passing game's most explosive performance of the summer.— Buckner and Brents were both held out of Friday's practice for rest.
— The primary focus of the live 11-on-11 and 7-on 7 team drills focused on normal in-game situations , and red zone.— Richardson had his most explosive performance of camping, going 14-of-17 passing , with 3 touchdowns through the air and another on the ground, all of which were in the red zone. He was decisive and made reads all over te field. Richardson's 11-on-11 completions went to Michael Pittman Jr. , Alec Pierce , AD Mitchell , Trey Sermon , and Jonathan Taylor.
— With slot receiver Josh Downs out with an ankle injury, it was primarily Mitchell who took those snaps with Pittman and Pierce on the outside. It turned into instant results as Mitchell pulled in a few passes from Richardson. Sermon also saw increased work with the first-team offense, likely due to Taylor historically seeing little to no action in the preseason. Sermon caught a short touchdown from Richardson early in practice.
