Ah, Chris Ballard. My favorite topic.
As General Manager of the Indianapolis Colts, this man has had more lives than a cat. Both he and Frank Reich were signed to extensions in August of 2021 after Jim Irsay expressed extreme faith in both men. Irsay is an interesting man. In some instances, he seems to act on a whim and emotionally. After just missing the playoffs, Irsay demanded Carson Wentz be traded after one season, he fired Reich after a rough start in 2022 which was less than two years into his extension, and he brought in Jeff Saturday who had no head coaching experience.
