What Robert Turbin’s Suspension Means for the Colts

The Colts were dealt a blow today after it was announced that Robert Turbin would be suspended the first four games of the season. Turbin has been a great short yardage back and was expected to be the number two back again. That will no longer be the case moving forward.

Turbin is a big and strong back, and he was very useful in goal-line situations last year. That role will now have to be filled by someone else, probably rookie Jordan Wilkins. This suspension is big news for him, as he will now get to play a much larger role in the offense.
