On the Indianapolis Colts' first unofficial depth chart of training camp, wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie is listed as the team's third wideout, although he remains in competition with impressive rookie Josh Downs for the starting slot role in Indy.

With Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs in the middle of a full-blown holdout, Zamir White is listed as the team's No. 1 RB on the first unofficial depth chart of training camp.
