The Colts have been in search for a big-play, explosive tight end since the departure of Eric Ebron a few seasons ago. Many believe rookie fourth-round pick Kylen Granson could be the solution to that problem.
But expecting any rookie — especially one as important as a tight end in Frank Reich’s offense — to come in and make an immediate impact, is a lot to ask of Granson. In my mind, shouldering most of the load on a rookie tight end may not bode well for the Colts. It’s likely best to let Granson come in and learn his way around the offense a bit before assigning such high expectations.
