The Indianapolis Colts and Green Bay Packers began holding joint practices at Grand Park in Westfield on Tuesday. The two teams meet in preseason action on Saturday at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. It will be the Colts’ only home game of the preseason.

Richardson injured his finger in the first preseason game at Baltimore and had to sit out after just nine snaps.
