Indianapolis Colts quarterbacks Anthony Richardson and Gardner Minshew are planning to get together with their pass-catchers at some point during summer break leading into training camp.
A common event that unfolds for the majority of teams during summer break, it will mean a lot for Richardson to continue getting work in with his new teammates. Building chemistry is vital and sometimes getting the work in away from an official team setting helps a bit more.
“I’ll be getting with the receivers, getting with Gardner (Minshew II) trying to get in the building here so I can constantly learn information and build chemistry because the season is right around the corner, it’s coming up fast. Trying to get better, master my craft. Getting in the playbook a lot more and getting chemistry with the receivers a lot more as well,” Richardson told the media Tuesday.
Minshew echoed those thoughts but mentioned the workouts likely would take place in Florida where both of the quarterbacks reside during the offseason.
“I think we’re going to have a decent amount of guys down there. So, it might be a good central location around everybody else. We’ve been talking a little about that – probably get with Anthony (Richardson) and figure out a good way to do that,” Minshew said Tuesday.
Both Minshew and Richardson split reps with the first-team offense during the first minicamp practice Tuesday while the latter got some extra reps with the second unit as well.
Getting together this summer with their teammates will be vital entering training camp, especially as both sides try to learn Shane Steichen’s playbook as much as possible.
It’s likely we’ll see a post on social media about it, but we should expect a strong group of Colts getting together during the offseason.
