Although they’ve been quiet in free agency thus far — as per usual — the Colts have shed some light on the status of their team.
In a “pre-camp injury report” obtained by ESPN’s Paul Kuharsky, Indianapolis issued an update as to how several key players — such as Peyton Manning, Dallas Clark, and Austin Collie — are recovering from their injuries.
The report says Manning “continues to progress, but there is no timetable for his return to unrestricted activity.” The All-World quarterback underwent neck surgery in May, and was expected to miss some practice time this summer. Manning has never missed a start in his career, however, so the prevailing thought is that he should be good to go come Week 1.
Clark, coming off of a fractured wrist and the IR list, has been cleared for full participation in training camp and will sport a splint on his hand during practices.
Collie, who suffered three separate concussions last season, has also been cleared for football activities. Ditto for fellow receiver Anthony Gonzalez, whose 2010 campaign was derailed by a knee injury.
Assuming Peyton doesn’t suffer any setbacks, it appears the Colts are fully healthy heading into the upcoming season.
