Colts updated position-by-position depth chart on offense after offseason programs

With offseason programs now behind us, the Indianapolis Colts will break until July 22nd, when the team reconvenes for training camp.Ultimately, it is during training camp and in the preseason, when the intensity is turned up and the pads come on, that we will begin to get a much better idea of where positional battles stand and what the full 53-man roster could look like.Admittedly, that can be difficult information to glean during OTAs and minicamp, when the pads aren't on and the focus is on installs.But nonetheless, there are still players who stand out during this time of the year, and we also get glimpses into potential rotations, along with seeing who is playing with the first, second, and third team units.So, given what we know at this time, what might the Colts' depth chart on the offensive side of the football look like?Indianapolis Colts' quarterbacksAnthony Richardson | Daniel JonesRiley LeonardJason BeanWith it being an "open competition" for the starting quarterback job, Richardson and Jones are sharing that top spot.

With Richardson sidelined, Jones got all of the first-team reps for most of OTAs and all of training camp, and Shane Steichen was "very pleased" with what he saw.

Jones' performance and Richardson's absence in early June won't determine the quarterback competition, but Richardson has to make up ground when he returns.Indianapolis Colts running backsJonathan TaylorKhalil HerbertDJ GiddensTyler GoodsonSalvon AhmedUlysses Bentley IVGiddens, Herbert, and Goodson are competing for playing time behind Taylor and the final two roster spots.

For now, with Herbert's experience, I'll give him the edge over Giddens, but I expect we'll see both players this season.

With the Colts wanting more production at the backup running back spot, I left Goodson off my recent roster prediction, with the thought being that the Colts would go in a different direction this season.Indianapolis Colts tight endsTyler WarrenMo Alie-CoxDrew OgletreeWill MalloryJelani WoodsSean McKeonAlbert OkwuegbunamMaximilian MangWill Mallory was one of the standout performers over the last few weeks, which puts him in that fourth spot on this tight end depth chart.

Woods has to show he can stay healthy.

Presumably, he and Mallory will be competing for that passing-catching first role on this team.Indianapolis Colts wide receiversMichael PittmanJosh DownsAlec PierceAD MitchellAnthony GouldAshton DulinDJ MontgomeryAjou AjouLaquan TreadwellTyler KahmannColeman OwenLandon ParkerBlayne TaylorThere isn't much mystery at this position group.

We know who the six receivers are that will make up the final roster.

AD Mitchell will begin as the fourth option on the depth chart, but he's coming off a strong performance during OTAs and minicamp, and if he can continue to show that consistency, he'll earn more opportunities, even if he doesn't climb up the depth chart.Indianapolis Colts offensive linemenC Tanor BortoliniC Danny PinterC Wesley FrenchC Mose VavaoG Quenton NelsonG Matt GoncalvesG Josh SillsG Dalton TuckerOT Bernhard RaimannOT Braden SmithOT Jalen TravisOT Blake FreelandOT Luke TenutaOT Jack WilsonOT Marshall FoernerThe first and second units here seem to be pretty well established.

The starters are Raimann, Nelson, Bortolini, Goncalves, and Smith.

While the second unit consisted of Freeland, Sills, Pinter, Tucker, and Travis.

Offensive line coach Tony Sparano Jr.

said that Bortolini will be competing with Pinter for the starting job and Goncalves with the other guards, but they are the presumed starters.This article originally appeared on Colts Wire: Colts' depth chart: Updated look at the offense after minicamp.
