Count Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Reggie Wayne among those happy that No. 1 overall draft pick Andrew Lucksigned in time for the start of training camp.
Jeremiah: Peyton's mirror image
Daniel Jeremiah says Andrew Luck is cut from the exact same mold as the man he's replacing in Indy, Peyton Manning. **More ...**
Because Stanford operates on the "quarters" system, Luck missed nearly the Colts' entire offseason program. Luck was able to participate in the mandatory minicamp and traveled down to Miami to work out with Wayne earlier this month, but the two haven't had time to develop an on-field rapport.
Wayne hopes that chemistry develops in training camp, James Oldham of The Indianapolis Star reports.
"It's going to take some time," Wayne said Saturday at his charity basketball game at the Indiana Convention Center. "It was only a few days, so we'll just take it one day at a time and we'll go from there. That's why we have training camp. Hopefully in training camp, we can get some chemistry going and everything will be all right."
With seven weeks before the start of the regular season, Luck and Wayne should have plenty of time to develop a feel for one another. Colts rookies will report to training camp at Anderson University on Wednesday, with the veterans reporting Saturday. The Colts' first practice as a team is one week from Sunday, and their first preseason game (at home against the St. Louis Rams) is in three weeks.
