Colts

Colts HC Shane Steichen defended the team’s trick play that resulted in a defensive touchdown for the Broncos and said that it worked well in practice.

“That was the first drive that we started getting something going, and then we got that ball on that play,” Steichen said, via PFT. “Credit to [No.] 15. He made a hell of a play, and that’s what happened. We worked on that play all week, and it was great,” Steichen added. “It looked great all week. We padded up, and it was good in practice. He threw it great. Obviously, he’s thrown double passes before that he’s had success with, and that one didn’t work out.”
