An Indianapolis Colts blog
Playing cornerback in the NFL is tough. It has to be one of the hardest positions because players are alone on an island, and not all of them turn it into “Revis Island” either. Jamming the receiver early and throwing them out of their rhythm are keys to locking down a receiver. Yes, they are […]
With the 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 draft classes already reviewed, the next stop in the Chris Ballard draft review series is 2021. This is another class that looks fine on the surface because the Colts did get some useful production, but the longer you sit with it, the more underwhelming it becomes. The Colts […]
Arizona Cardinals pass rushing edge Josh Sweat, has been the subject matter of recent trade inquiries by interested NFL suitors, and it begs the questions of whether the Indianapolis Colts could be among those actively pursuing league suitors: The 29-year-old former Super Bowl LIX Champion and NFL Pro Bowler is coming off a 2025 campaign […]
Coinciding with the positional competition at starting right guard along their offensive line, the Indianapolis Colts also are projected to have a training camp battle at starting right tackle. Now, this competition has changed a bit in the last few weeks from what we once knew, and it may be a lot more anticlimactic than […]
The Colts are about to finish the offseason with some post-draft free agency moves, marking the 10th offseason under Chris Ballard. The decade of Ballard’s management has been a wild rollercoaster ride, albeit not all of it due to Ballard himself. But how does the Colts roster stack up from 2026 compared to 2016, the […]
The “Achilles heel” of Indiana sports is the Achilles heel…literally. Tyrese Haliburton was the first victim claimed in the biggest moment of the Pacers’ existence. While the timing wasn’t as dramatic, Daniel Jones fell the same way. The good news for both is they are back on the mend and hope to be full strength […]

The Colts have done a lot this offseason, but the pass rush still feels incomplete. Laiatu Latu gives them one quality starting edge rusher, and the additions of Arden Key, Michael Clemons and Colby Wooden strengthened the rotation. But depth and a true second pass rusher are not the same thing. If the Colts are […]
Former Indiana Hoosier, Cincinnati Bearcat and Texas Tech Red Raider Quarterback Brendan Sorsby’s time in college football might be coming to an abrupt end. After the NCAA announced that the 2025 All-Big 12 Second Team Quarterback had lost his final year of eligibility and declared him ineligible to play in the 2026 collegiate season following […]
Could the Indianapolis Colts really win the division in 2026? It’s easier said than done, but it could certainly happen. There is another path the Colts could take in 2026, however. It’s dark and would have lasting repercussions, but it too is possible. Things could go sideways, and the Colts could find themselves at the […]
The opening of OTAs would seem like a great logical step to keep the momentum going after what has widely been called a successful draft. Unfortunately, OTAs move fans into that phase where we are 100% reliant on others to tell us how we are developing. We’ll get pressers and recaps from the occasional beat […]
Colts head coach Shane Steichen made it clear this week that the Colts’ backup quarterback job is not locked in. Steichen said Anthony Richardson and Riley Leonard will compete for the No. 2 job behind Daniel Jones. When asked if it will be a 50/50 competition, Steichen said, “Yeah, I would say right now. We’ll […]
During Wednesday’s OTA media availability, Indianapolis Colts starting quarterback Anthony Richardson indicated that while he hasn’t rescinded his earlier offseason trade request, he is only going to continue to focus on the team and competing for the primary backup quarterback job (via ESPN’s Stephen Holder): The Colts rising 4th-year quarterback recently attended voluntary workouts earlier […]
According to The IndyStar’s Joel Erickson, the Indianapolis Colts will hold joint training camp practices with both the New England Patriots (away) and the Atlanta Falcons (home) this upcoming summer in August: The Colts play the Patriots during the preseason opener in New England on Thursday, August 13th, at 7:30 PM EDT, so it’s safe […]
ESPN NFL Insider/Analysts Jeremy Fowler, Dan Graziano, Ben Solak, and Seth Walder were tasked with creating four speculative trade proposals for Indianapolis Colts readily available quarterback Anthony Richardson: Ultimately, the verdict by ESPN’s Colts beat reporter Stephen Holder was that the Vikings would win the day here, perhaps unrelated to the fact that the Detroit […]
As we know, the Colts season was a tale of two halves. In the first 10 weeks of the season, this team was an offensive juggernaut. Refusing to punt, scoring at will, and putting up historic numbers. Then out of nowhere.. they weren’t. There’s no one singular thing that caused such a dramatic shift in […]
The Indianapolis Colts published a quick clip of Monday’s OTA practice, which wasn’t open to the local media, and one thing to note is that starting quarterback Daniel Jones is already out there throwing in individual drills: Jones, who suffered a season-ending torn Achilles during Week 14 late last season, is still rehabbing from that […]
With the 2017, 2018 and 2019 classes already reviewed, the next stop in the Chris Ballard draft review series is 2020. This is one of the more interesting classes of the Ballard era because the top of the draft carried so much of the value. The Colts did not have a first-round pick that year […]
The Indianapolis Colts are running it back in 2026. Sure, some faces have departed and others have come along but for the most part, the crew from 2025 remains intact. The level of success was difficult to discern after starting off white hot and then turning ice cold down the stretch. That leaves a lot […]
The Indianapolis Colts were among the eleven NFL teams to kick off their OTAs today. Their current OTA schedule is May 26-27, May 29, June 1-2, and June 4th. OTAs are voluntary spring practices, where included is non-contact 11-on-11 on-field work with both rookies and veterans (who participate) alike. Additionally, Colts players and coaches can […]
With the 2017 and 2018 classes already reviewed, the next stop in the Chris Ballard draft review series is 2019. After a shaky first class and then a strong 2018 group that helped build Ballard’s reputation, the 2019 draft sits somewhere in the middle. It was not a complete disaster, but it was definitely underwhelming. […]

With the 2017 class in the books, the next stop in the Chris Ballard draft review series is 2018, which remains the class that built much of his reputation in Indianapolis. After a shaky first draft in 2017, Ballard followed it up with one of the best draft classes the Colts have had in a […]
