GONZO WOWS ‘EM — Many have asked where wide receiver Anthony Gonzalez is in the pecking order of a crowded and talented group. He’s been splitting time in the slot with second-year pro Austin Collie mostly. Also has taken a turn fielding punts on special teams.
But with Garcon sitting out, Gonzo had more of a chance to make some plays this afternoon and had the crowd buzzing and making its loudest cheers with a couple nifty catches on Manning deep balls.
It’s just practice, but he looks good. After one of the sideline catches, Manning gave Gonzo a pat after the receiver came back.
If this keeps up, I don’t see how the Colts can keep him on the bench. But I still don’t have a clue how Reggie Wayne, Garcon, Collie and Gonzo can all get their share of catches. We shall see.
