Indianapolis Colts players arrived in style on Tuesday for the start of the team’s training camp in Anderson, Indiana, as teammates showed off their signature shoes, socks, and even Ferrari backpacks:

Hmmmm….
While it wasn’t quite former beloved Colts wideout Reggie Wayne arriving in an IndyCar, helicopter, military vehicle, or dump truck of training camps past, these Colts players clearly portrayed that this year’s team has some definite personality.
After entering last season with serious championship aspirations and expectations, the Colts have flown stealthily under the radar entering this year’s training camp, as there isn’t nearly as much buzz following a disappointing 8-8 season and a quiet offseason regarding roster moves.
In that sense, the Colts can safely be considered somewhat as underdogs this upcoming season, after being regarded as the darlings of last offseason and 2015’s “paper champions”.
Generating very little national attention and coming off a failed season, Colts quarterback Andrew Luck has already said that this year’s team has some “edge” to it:
Is there an edge to this team this year?

Andrew Luck: "I think so, I think so."
It must be Thornton’s big-wheeled bicycle…
