Colts Training Camp Day 3: ‘Find a way’ when opportunity knocks
WESTFIELD, Ind. — I never thought that it would be so simple, but, I found a way. I found a way.

Finally! Colts begin training camp and slow the speculation season.

The Colts are about to finish the offseason with some post-draft free agency moves, marking the 10th offseason under Chris Ballard.

Which longshot do you have your eye on as a Colts contributor this year?
I guess we could start by eliminating those who would not be considered longshots. No starter from a year ago should be in that category.
