## Resource

The Indianapolis Colts are locked in a fierce kicker battle between Spencer Shrader and Blake Grupe, both proven performers from last season. Grupe dominated Family Day practice, going 6-for-6 including a 55-yarder, while Shrader was 5-for-6 with one wide miss. Shrader was nearly flawless before a knee injury sidelined him, and Grupe stepped in to finish the year perfect. With both kickers elite and the coaching staff keeping reps even, the competition will heat up through training camp and preseason. The winner will carry the weight of a critical kicking role — and the Colts need consistency when the pressure mounts.
