TY Hilton has been immortalized by his alma mater with the prestigious award on Hall of Fame enshrinement. His legacy for the FIU Panthers is secure as the greatest football player in the university’s history.
In his 4 year collegiate career, Hilton racked up:
Instead of being slimed himself, Jones teamed up with former NVP Jonathan Taylor to cover a menace who has been on a pie-ing rampage throughout Colts offices for a while now: Blue. The 3x NFL Mascot of the Year was like many-a-defender, caught unaware as Taylor got Blue’s attention on him, enabling Jones to surprise with a jar of slime from...
The Indianapolis Colts today released their Friday injury report for Week 2 of the NFL season ahead of their Sunday game against the Denver Broncos.
Cornerback Charvarius Ward had been ruled OUT for Sunday’s game against the Broncos with a concussion. Ward appeared in the injury report early in the week after being placed into the league’s concussion protocol. Ward being ruled out doesn’t bode well for a secondary that was lacking a true CB1 all year last season. Ward will likely be replaced by Mekhi Blackmon.
Cornerback Jaylon Jones has been ruled OUT with a hamstring injury for this...
If you can’t bask and dream after a performance like last week’s, you may be more interested in being proven right, than being a die-hard Colt fan. You still may end up being right, as it is hard to imagine looking better next week, but what would your opinion be with a less aesthetic win? Would a bully ball win vs. a big-time D excite you?
I only ask because I thought that Steichen was masterful last week. He didn’t give plays away like we have seen in the past. How many times have we seen an incompletion on 1st...
According to KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson, the Indianapolis Colts worked out six players on Friday afternoon, including former Miami Dolphins’ 2017 2nd round pick Raekwon McMillan:
The 29-year-old linebacker appears to be the most recognizable name on this list, recording 285 tackles (172 solo), 4 passes defensed, 3 forced fumbles, and 2 fumble recoveries during 72 career games (37 starts) in his 5-year career.
He’s also spent time with the Las Vegas Raiders, New England Patriots, and Tennessee Titans organizations. McMillan last appeared with the Patriots and Titans last season, as he had 46 tackles (25 solo) and a pass defensed...
The secondary is already getting thin for the Indianapolis Colts, who may be forced to deploy another unfamiliar cornerback trio in Sunday’s Week 2 matchup against the Denver Broncos. The “White Out” redemption game at Lucas Oil Stadium features the classic unstoppable force versus an immovable unit.
If the instability at quarterback was alarming enough entering the 2025 campaign, there should still be more concerns about the cornerback carousel in Indy. The Colts have four healthy cornerbacks available to play Sunday including returning starter Kenny Moore II, along with new additions Mekhi Blackmon, Jonathan Edwards, and Xavien Howard.
The Colts...
One of the toughest games of the season for a Colts’ team coming off their first Week 1 win in over a decade, this will be a good test to see whether the domination of the Dolphins was a mirage or if this team has what it takes to surprise some people.
Nik Bonitto was one of the biggest reasons why the Broncos managed to come back against the Colts in a pivotal game for the final playoff spot last season (that, and a certain goal line fumble…). The young edge rusher has emerged...
The Indianapolis Colts are 1-0 after week one. That sentence has been in the works for a long time, but it is finally here. Now is the time for the Colts to build on their new found momentum to start a season and beat the Denver Broncos at home. The Broncos are coming off a victory over the Tennessee Titans that looked less comfortable than it should considering they faced the worst team from last year with a rookie quarterback. Regardless, they got the win are looking to create some early distance between themselves from the rest of the AFC....
Each week during the season, I will be walking through the data from the previous Colts game and analyzing the numbers to form a sort of “what happened” narrative, as well as comparing the Colts against all other teams in the league. For a glossary of the stats listed, reference Season Stats. Thanks to Pro Football Reference, NFL.com, Football Outsiders, and the nflFastR project for being awesome sources of weekly data.
In my offensive stats article, I highlighted first downs as a critical stat for measuring performance. Similarly, preventing first downs is critical for a defense. Miami managed only...
Denver Broncos cornerback Pat Surtain II is of NFL lineage and has recently evolved into becoming arguably the best defender across the league. Son of former All-Pro cornerback Patrick Surtain, the reigning Defensive Player of the Year has quickly cemented himself as the best cornerback of his generation at a mere 25 years old.
He’s been locking down the league’s best passcatchers since he entered the league as a spry 21-year-old and hasn’t looked back since. Surtain II oftentimes is ignored entirely due to his loud presence in the backend, but this doesn’t stop him from producing. Since entering the...
According to head coach Shane Steichen, recently acquired Indianapolis Colts cornerback Mekhi Blackmon could be poised for a bigger role this Sunday, hosting the Denver Broncos (via the radio voice of the Colts Matt Taylor):
It’s worth noting that Blackmon was recently acquired in a final 53-man roster cut trade from the Minnesota Vikings on August 25th in exchange for a 2026 Colts’ 6th round draft pick.
The Colts once again feature a depleted cornerback room as both CB1 Charvarius Ward (concussion) and key rotational reserve Jaylon Jones (hamstring) suffered significant injuries during this past Sunday’s Week 1 win, and...
