Latest news and updates about the Colts
Does anyone feel optimistic about what the Indianapolis Colts are doing was the question, but maybe a better one is, what exactly are the Colts doing right now? For years, my personal gripe has been that this franchise is directionless. This lack of direction starts at the top with Chris Ballard and has been one […]
According to ESPN, Indianapolis Colts starting safety Nick Cross is their pending free agent “most likely on the move”—which may give slight optimism for the Horseshoe faithful worried about retaining wideout Alec Pierce rapidly approaching free agency’s formal kick-off: FA most likely on the move: S Nick Cross. The Colts’ signing of veteran free agent Cam Bynum last offseason, […]

Well, the Jets could potentially […]

Indianapolis Colts signing Trey Hendrickson only way for Ballard? Indiana Basketball locks in 10th! Pacers lose again!
As Colt fans, we did not get our optimal results for the tag designation period. In a perfect world, Jones would have signed a team/cap friendly deal that allowed the Colts to tag Pierce.

Indianapolis Colts Alec Pierce sounds like free agent in interview! IU Lamar Wilkerson sets records!
Tag, you’re it, or in this case, you’re not it if we are referring to Alec Pierce. The Indianapolis Colts entered the offseason with one tag to offer and two targets. Like a game of musical chairs, someone was going to be without a seat. That person is Pierce, and while nothing is set in […]

Chris Ballard had one simple decision to make this week: use the tag on the right player. Instead, he protected the wrong one. The Colts placed the transition tag on quarterback Daniel Jones while leaving wide receiver Alec Pierce unprotected heading into free agency. The transition tag allows Indianapolis to match any offer Jones receives, […]
Did Colts choose correctly when they transition tagged Daniel Jones instead of pursuing and signing Kyler Murray?
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, while the Indianapolis Colts made an ‘aggressive move’ to re-sign Alec Pierce before Tuesday’s late afternoon league tag deadline, all signs were already pointing to the team’s lead wideout testing the free agent waters next mid-week—short of the Horseshoe applying the franchise tag (which the transition tag went to […]

For one, the Colts could still agree to […]

The Indianapolis Colts have a looming decision to make, as the franchise is just hours away from the league’s mandated 4 PM EST, Tuesday deadline where any franchise or transition tag must be applied beforehand.

Tom Telesco didn’t accomplish a ton in his one year as the Las Vegas Raiders’ general manager (drafting Brock Bowers will always be a great decision, though), but he had some nice moments. Claiming defensive tackle Jonah Laulu off waivers was certainly one of them. The Las Vegas native was cut by the Indianapolis Colt […]
