Kenny Moore and the Future of the Nickel Position
Last week, Kenny Moore and the Colts mutually agreed to part ways, with Moore now expected to seek a trade. On one hand, it’s a bit surprising. Moore was supposed to benefit from Lou Anarumo and the new scheme he’s bringing to Indianapolis. Anarumo loves to blitz from the slot—one of Moore’s best traits—and uses […]
5 Potential Kenny Moore II Draft replacements
News broke on Friday morning that longtime Colts veteran cornerback Kenny Moore II and the Colts have mutually agreed to seek out a trade.

5 Linebacker Draft Options For The Indianapolis Colts
The Indianapolis Colts are expected to target defensive reinforcements in the 2026 NFL Draft, and linebacker is a particularly strong position group this cycle.

The Colts rushed it: Why the Raiders’ QB plan is what Indianapolis never had
Yes, another Anthony Richardson and Colts mismanagement article! A lot of this has been said before when it comes to quarterback development and the Colts, but now there’s a real comparison to look at with the Raiders and Mendoza, and it makes the contrast even clearer. There’s a right way to develop a young quarterback […]
5 Defensive End Draft Options For The Indianapolis Colts
As the Indianapolis Colts look ahead to the 2026 NFL Draft, reinforcing the defensive line, particularly at defensive end (EDGE), is a priority. With the modern NFL placing heavy emphasis on pressuring quarterbacks and holding the edge against the run, adding a dynamic defensive end is essential for long-term defensive success. Fortunately, the 2026 class […]
Colts Reacts Survey Results
The Horseshoe Faithful have spoken again! This time, I wanted to make it a little bit different, and more of ‘just for fun’ survey questions, but two answers I was hoping to find this week were. As it relates to newly projected Colts starters, which right now are safety Hunter Wohler, Jalen Travis, and Akeem […]
Does a world exist in which Richardson starts for the Colts in 2026?
I’ve been watching a lot of Stranger Things recently. Because of that, I do believe there is a world in which Anthony Richardson finds him under center for the 2026 iteration of the Indianapolis Colts. It’s called the “Upside Down”. For non-fans of the show, that is the world that exists under ours in a […]
FLEX MOCK DRAFT: Ace Day 2 of 2026 NFL Draft for the Colts
With the 2026 NFL Draft just two weeks away, the Indianapolis Colts war room is trying to revamp a roster that faces a significant reset at key positions.

The Indianapolis Colts enter the 2026 NFL Draft with a clear need to add depth and playmaking ability at wide receiver. With no pick in Round 1, traded to the New York Jets, the Colts will have to use one of their multiple Day 2 and Day 3 picks. The Colts are well positioned to […]
Report: Colts, CB Kenny Moore II mutually exploring trade options
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Indianapolis Colts and longtime veteran slot cornerback Kenny Moore II have mutually agreed to explore trade options—meaning the two sides could be parting ways soon: The 30-year-old former Pro Bowl veteran cornerback for the Colts has spent the last 9 seasons in Indianapolis, having been initially claimed as an […]
Indianapolis Colts 3 Round Mock Draft
The Indianapolis Colts enter the 2026 NFL Draft with a roster on the rise and a front office unafraid to make aggressive moves. With a newly re-signed offensive duo in Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce, Jonathan Taylor in his prime, and a young core developing on both sides of the ball, the Colts pushed their […]
The Colts have been tied to Cincinnati LB Jake Golday
The Indianapolis Colts are slated to enter the NFL Draft with an opening at off-ball linebacker, but have a particular someone in mind to fill said void, ESPN’s Jordan Reid reports. In his recent article, Reid shared some intel on all 32 NFL teams, and the Colts were naturally tied to adding at the linebacker […]
The Colts need to be right, when selecting the new LBs who have yet to join the team.
We have less than three weeks until the draft starts without us on April 23rd. We will start on the 24th and unless we see moves before the draft, Linebacker is going to be a need. I think that it is possible that Pratt returns, but even that move would not remove LB from the […]

The Indianapolis Colts are hosting rising pass-rush prospect UCF defensive end Malachi Lawrence on a visit this week, according to NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. Malachi Lawrence (6’4”, 253 lbs) is one of the draft’s biggest risers this year. He had 7 sacks, 11 tackles for loss, and 2 forced fumbles during his senior season, and […]

Colts’ Ballard better draft like it’s 2018
Chris “the cat” Ballard. That is an appropriate name given the number of lives he has had with the Indianapolis Colts. Every year seems like his last, yet he keeps going. The hopes are high he will succeed, but the faith meter is low. If he is going to pull a rabbit out of his […]

Colts drafting Elijah Sarratt could be good for business
Steve Alford or Reggie Miller? Asking this in 2026 isn’t even a question. Miller is an icon, not just in Indiana but in the entire NBA. As silly of a question as it may seem, in 1987, it was a real debate. No one knew who Miller was and Alford was an Indiana icon in […]

The Indianapolis Colts are scheduled to meet with IPP defensive line prospect Uar Bernard (Nigeria) this week, according to Luca Evans of the Denver Post.

Are the Colts banking on Hunter Wohler?
The Indianapolis Colts are still without a starting strong safety as we inch towards the NFL Draft… or are they? Indy’s starter of the past two seasons, 2022 draftee Nick Cross, just left in free agency to join the Washington Commanders’ defensive backfield. Although his departure was indeed a loss, general manager Chris Ballard and […]
Much ado about nothing in latest Andrew Luck retirement ‘misinformation’
Last week, on the ‘On My Soul’ podcast, former Indianapolis Colts Pro Bowl tight end Eric Ebron caused some national stir, when he recalled that current longtime team general manager Chris Ballard gave retired franchise quarterback Andrew Luck an ‘ultimatum’ that he either commit to the team and play through lingering pain for the 2019 […]
