AFC Notes: Ben Johnson, Trent Baalke, Will Levis, Colts, Jaguars, Titans

Colts

• Colts G Will Fries is expected to be medically cleared from his season-ending right tibia injury before the start of free agency, and is expected to be in high demand in March, per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.

Jaguars

• When examining the Jaguars’ head coaching search, Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated writes their initial decision to retain former GM Trent Baalke drove top candidates away.
• Breer believes Ben Johnson was “very high” on Jacksonville before he decided to sign with the Bears and the organization discussed making a “big-money offer” for him.
• According to Breer, Johnson’s camp got the impression from owner Shad Khan that they would consider moving on from Baalke. However, Johnson did not want to be responsible for pushing out Baalke.
