According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler (subscription), the Indianapolis Colts are ‘stuck in the middle . . . but a move or two away’ among potential NFL tiers headed into the 2025 offseason:
STUCK IN THE MIDDLE ... BUT A MOVE OR TWO AWAY
Indianapolis Colts (8-9)
Average age of roster: 26.6
Salary cap space: $27.3 million
Total 2025 draft picks (projected): 7
What’s next: Time to change. No team embodies the NFL middle quite like the Colts, whose 8-9 record last season was quasi-impressive given the drama around quarterback Anthony Richardson and the defense’s late-season collapse.
