While Colts' QB Anthony Richardson is sidelined, Daniel Jones get 'a lot of reps'
While Colts' QB Anthony Richardson is sidelined, Daniel Jones get 'a lot of reps' With Anthony Richardson out during minicamp, Daniel Jones will be getting "a lot of reps" with the Colts' offense. With Anthony Richardson missing next week's minicamp practice due to a shoulder injury, Daniel Jones will take all of the first-team snaps during those three practices. Jones was signed by the Colts this offseason to compete with Richardson for the starting job. As Shane Steichen has highlighted, the plan was for the two quarterbacks to split the starting reps throughout OTAs, minicamp, and into training camp. Steichen did not put a timeline on when Richardson would return, but hopes that he can return "at some point" during training camp, according to The Athletic's James Boyd. So what we know right now is that during Thursday's final OTA practice and the three mandatory minicamp practices next week, Jones will be getting the starting reps. 'Daniel will get a lot of reps,' Steichen said via the Indy Star. 'And then we'll see how it plays out.' Jones joined the Colts after spending about five and a half seasons with the New York Giants. He was released during the second half of the 2024 season before eventually landing on the Minnesota Vikings' practice squad. Over his career, Jones has been a relatively efficient passer, completing 64.1% of his throws. As ESPN's Bill Barnwell wrote recently, Jones' path to success in Steichen's offense consists of his ability to be an accurate passer when operating within the rhythm of the play, and he "should be able to handle Steichen's RPO calls" as well. However, interceptions, at times, and the ability to push the ball downfield--as Barnwell also noted--were issues that Jones and the Giants' offense had run into. 'He's been great. … Acclimating to the offense, learning it, the system. Obviously, a smart guy, understands it, he's picked it up,' Steichen said of Jones, via the Indy Star. 'He's a veteran guy that comes in early, late nights, does all the right things.' Whether it be Richardson or Jones, the Colts have a talented group at the skill positions. This includes Jonathan Taylor, who rushed for the fourth-most yards last season. The Colts were also the only team to have three separate receivers all eclipse 800 yards in 2024, not to mention that they added Tyler Warren and his do-it-all skill set to the offense this offseason as well. Along with what is taking place at quarterback, eyes should be on Tanor Bortolini and Matt Goncalves as they presumably step into larger roles, and Goncalves makes a position change to right guard. Regardless of who the starting quarterback is, consistent success for the offense begins with steady play up front. "Consistency on a daily basis," as Steichen put it, is what the Colts are looking for from the quarterback position this season.

NBA Finals AI predictions: Scores, picks for every Thunder vs Pacers game Show Caption Hide Caption Pacers and Thunder NBA Finals is better than it's 'small-market' billing USA TODAY Sports' Jeff Zillgitt breaks down the star-studded NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and Oklahoma City Thunder. Sports Pulse There's a consensus opinion forming about the 2025 NBA Finals before they even begin Thursday night, and it makes sense because the Oklahoma City Thunder have been the best team in the league all season. There just aren't that many people who believe the Indiana Pacers can beat them. None of the USA TODAY Sports experts chose the Pacers to win the series. No one from The Oklahoman went against the Thunder, and only one staff member from the IndyStar has the Pacers winning the NBA title. Just three of the 32 experts polled by ESPN picked the Pacers over the Thunder. Oklahoma City is the biggest favorite entering the NBA Finals since 2017 when the Golden State Warriors beat the Cleveland Cavaliers with Steph Curry and Kevin Durant, according to the latest odds. If there's debate, it's about how competitive these Finals can potentially be. Perhaps that's where artificial intelligence is most helpful in this case. AI predictions are generated with the very same content that features so many people picking the Thunder to win the NBA championship for the first time. So USA TODAY Sports asked ChatGPT to predict the score and outcome of every game during the 2025 NBA Finals between the Thunder and Pacers, and the simulation it produced projects some drama and memorable performances from Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Tyrese Haliburton and Aaron Nesmith. Did AI align with almost everyone else in choosing the Thunder to win the championship? And how many games will the series last? Here's a breakdown of the score and outcome prediction made by ChatGPT for every game of the 2025 NBA Finals between the Oklahoma City Thunder and Indiana Pacers: PERSPECTIVE: Don't worry about NBA Finals TV ratings.
