The Colts are reportedly bringing in the top FCS guard prospect for an official top-30 visit.

The Indianapolis Colts are reportedly scheduled to host Sacramento State guard Jackson Slater on an official Top 30 visit, according to Tony Pauline of Sportskeeda.

Slater has been a high-rising iOL prospect throughout the pre-draft process, first making a name for himself at this year’s Senior Bowl, showcasing his versatility across the offensive interior.

The FCS product is a mauler on the inside who constantly looks for work, is an ideal puller in the run game, and controls his anchor in pass protection. Slater...

The Colts have been linked to tight ends a lot, but perhaps the team is looking for its next bookend at right tackle during late April’s NFL Draft?

According to SportsKeeda’s Tony Pauline, the Indianapolis Colts may be coyly eyeing an offensive tackle with the 14th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft:

“Speaking of the Colts, the belief from many outside the scouting community is that the team will take a tight end or safety in Round 1, as they tried to move up for Brock Bowers,” Pauline notes.

“Yet the overwhelming belief during the pro-day...

General managers around the league are switching their attention from free agency to the 2025 NFL draft, which is less than a month away with round 1 beginning on April 24th. The writers here at Stampede Blue are going to pretend they are the GM of all the 32 different teams and make their own picks for the entire first round.

Each writer will be putting themself in the general manager chair for each team and making their own picks. So it’s not necessarily what they are expecting to happen but rather how they would approach the pick for the...

The Colts publicly still believe in franchise quarterback hopeful Anthony Richardson, but they continue to hedge a bit here recently.

According to longtime general manager Chris Ballard, the Indianapolis Colts still believe that incumbent 3rd-year starter Anthony Richardson, despite his 2024 sophomore slump, still has major upside going forward:

“Yeah, I mean, I’ve talked [to] some other media members here this morning about kind of what’s been going on in the league and the lack of patience, and the quarterback carousel that you’re seeing,” [**Ballard said via the ‘Up and Adams’ show hosted by Kay Adams from the NFL...

The Colts are still kicking the tires on potential options at starting right guard—with 2nd-year swing-tackle Matt Gonvalves among potential in-house candidates.

According to longtime general manager Chris Ballard, the Indianapolis Colts starting right guard spot remains a priority after rock solid starter Will Fries departed in free agency:

“It’s an area that’s a priority,” Chris Ballard said via the IndyStar’s Joel Erickson at the NFL’s annual league meeting on Monday.

“If we had to line up and play today, we could. From Bort to Pinter to French, who have all started at center. Gonc, who’s started;...

Once again, an Indianapolis Colts quarterback has agreed to sign with Denver as former backup quarterback Sam Ehlinger signed a one-year deal Monday with the Broncos.

Once again, an Indianapolis Colts quarterback has agreed to sign with Denver as former backup quarterback Sam Ehlinger signed a one-year deal Monday with the Broncos.

Ehlinger received multiple offers, but saw the best fit under Broncos head coach Sean Payton. The 26-year-old joins the Broncos QB room with Bo Nix and Jarrett Stidham for an opportunity to compete for a backup role. Last season, Ehlinger played in all three preseason games, including the...

The Indianapolis Colts will work out top tight end prospect Tyler Warren during the latter stages of the pre-draft process.

For the first time possibly ever, fans and analysts alike are in agreement about what the Indianapolis Colts need most: a viable starting tight end.

Drew Ogletree and Will Mallory — the least productive of the previous bunch — are currently the only Colts tight ends from last season’s putrid output who are set to return. So is fourth-year tight end Jelani Woods, though he hasn’t logged a snap since his rookie season in 2022 after battling through injury.

The...

The Colts former head coach and quarterback pairing, who had solid success together, rejoin ranks at Stanford University.

Stanford University announced on Monday that former Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich will be the football program’s interim head coach for just the upcoming 2025 season:

Of course, it’s notable because retired Colts franchise quarterback Andrew Luck now serves as the Stanford football program’s general manager—having recently assumed the role in 2024.

In their lone season together in Indianapolis, Luck completed 430 of 639 passing attempts (67.3%) for 4,593 total passing yards, 39 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions during all 16 starts...

It’s shaping up to be a legitimate starting quarterback competition in Indianapolis this offseason.

At the NFL Annual League Meeting in Palm Beach, Florida, Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen indicated that incumbent 3rd-year starter Anthony Richardson, as well as recent veteran free agent addition Daniel Jones, the challenger, will initially split offseason reps at the starting quarterback position (via The Athletic’s James Boyd):

While one would think that the Colts still have to hope that Richardson wins the job outright on the merits, this appears to be a legitimate quarterback competition in Indianapolis.

It’s shaping up to be a...

In this series, we’ll look at 3 draft prospects who would be great fits for the Colts in any round.

We’re back for another season of the “3 prospects to watch for” series. This season, every position will be evaluated as the Colts can justify using a high draft pick on pretty much any spot on the team. Here are the three candidates for this week’s series:

Will Howard — Quarterback — Ohio State

If you asked me who Will Howard reminds me of, I would probably say Colts quarterback Daniel Jones. He’s a big bodied player who moves...

With so far to go, it shouldn’t be hard to get better.

The defense for the Indianapolis Colts has been far from dominant for a long time. While many fans are looking and hoping for Anthony Richardson to take a massive leap forward, it won’t probably matter much if the defense doesn’t improve drastically. Chris Ballard has made key roster moves and changed coordinators in an effort to fix a porous unit, but will it be enough? At the end of the day, it has to be because turning in another performance like last year will spell doom for the...

Which non-QB Colts could take a big leap forward in 2025? A trio of 2024 rookies stepping into bigger roles, a young player with immense upside moving up from the back of the rotation at his position, and a veteran who enjoyed a career year last season, but could fly even higher in a contract year.

Laiatu Latu, Edge Rusher

Latu was the first Defender off the board in the 2024 Draft, and had a very impressive rookie season. The Polynesian Pass Rusher only had 4 sacks, but his 14% Pass Rush Win percentage was 29th out of 122...
