Colts' Michael Pittman on offseason work outs with Daniel Jones, Anthony Richardson
As Pittman described on Tuesday, when meeting with the local media, this provided everyone the opportunity to get to know each other better and to work out together.
"We were in California for about half a week, and we got in a lot of good work, and we had a lot of fun while doing it," Pittman said via Locked on Colts. "I think guys got to know each other better, and that was the whole point of it."
Pittman continued, "So we went every day (to work out) that we were there, except for the day that guys got in. So we got three days of solid work and we definitely had fun and we definitely worked too."
Richardson would miss most of OTAs and all of minicamp, dealing with a shoulder injury. Rest was required, but ESPN's Stephen Holder would report recently that Richardson was throwing with velocity leading up to training camp, and GM Chris Ballard said on Tuesday that he would be "good to go" for practice, although the Colts would monitor his throwing volume.
With Richardson sidelined during offseason programs, Daniel Jones took the majority of the first-team reps. It'll be important for Richardson to get off to a fast start upon his return.
"He (Richardson) actually came out and was part of it," Pittman said of the trip to California. "Obviously, he's had his deal (shoulder injury), but we're going to get everything that we need during this session here. So it'll be fun."

Jerry Jones not confident Cowboys star Micah Parsons will play in Week 1 after trade request despite being listed as a starter
The Dallas Cowboys have released their first unofficial depth chart of the 2025 season, and defensive end Micah Parsons is listed as a starter despite his recent trade request and lagging contract negotiations. But despite that, owner Jerry Jones isn't sure that Parsons will actually be out on the field with the Cowboys for their season-opener against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 1. "No, absolutely not," Jones said Tuesday afternoon when asked if he was confident about Parsons' status for that game, via The Athletic's Jon Machota. "A big part of that is his decision. How would I know that? I'm just saying. But I'm urgent.' [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] Parsons has yet to fully participate in a training camp practice in the two weeks since the team reported to Oxnard, California. He released a lengthy statement on social media this past Friday, requesting a trade from the Cowboys, who drafted him No. 12 overall in the 2021 draft. Jones said that neither he nor his people have actually spoken to Parsons or his agent since the request was made on Friday. That said, Parsons continued to show up at Cowboys practice Saturday and Monday — the team was off on Sunday — notably wearing his No. 11 jersey Monday while watching his teammates and conversing with defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus as well as vice president of player personnel Will McClay. While Parsons wrote, "I no longer want to be here," in a trade-request statement he captioned, "Thank you Dallas," on social media, the Cowboys aren't looking to trade their premier edge rusher. Though Jones was far from convincing, first-year head coach Brian Schottenheimer is planning to have the four-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro available come Sept. 4. 'We're still planning on moving Micah around and putting him in all the spots that we see him and using our fronts the way we want to see it,' Schottenheimer said. 'We go about our business every day. We live in the moment. We focus in the moment. And again, like I said, I talked to you guys the other day, not going to get a lot into it. 'But I expect Micah to be here.' Parsons is in the fifth-year option of his rookie deal with the Cowboys. He won NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2021, the first of his four seasons with 12-plus sacks since entering the league. The Penn State product has piled up 52.5 sacks, 256 total tackles, 112 quarterback hits and nine forced fumbles in 63 regular-season games.
