Colts HC Jim Caldwell on WR-Austin Collie’s film study:
“I think it has helped him a tremendous amount. He has the kind of personality where he is going to work on something until he gets it. He comes in early and stays late. He has sort of a real gym rat mentality. There are not too many mornings that I come in here and walk through the hallway and I’ll see the light flickering in the wide receivers room, and he’s in there watching film before anybody else gets an opportunity to see it, except Peyton. Peyton will watch it the night before. He watches it the next morning. I do think that has helped him, in terms of adjusting to coverages. I do think it has helped him, in terms of his preparation and see different defenses run at different speeds that oftentimes guys don’t get a real good sense of that until it happens to him. He does a lot of great prep work that does aid and assist. He’s also a guy that is willing to ask. He’ll find (Assistant Head Coach/Wide Receivers) Clyde (Christensen) and talk with Clyde and get all the little nuances that he needs to know. He spends time with Peyton, as well. He’s a real student of the game. It’s not a guy that just gives it lip service
