Colts nutrition team focuses on familiarity, hydration for London Trip

The Indianapolis Colts nutrition team prepared extensively to manage food and hydration for their London game against the Washington Commanders. Director of Performance Nutrition Leigh Hullett outlined the multi-month logistical operation, which prioritizes player routines, familiar foods, and proper hydration to aid comfort while traveling abroad.

Players receive flight hydration packets, sleep aids, and light-adjusting tools to reset circadian rhythms upon arrival. The team partnered with London chefs to replicate typical American pregame meals, overcoming customs restrictions that required supplements to be shipped months ahead.
