Link to story Colts | DeForest Buckner extended Mon Apr 15, 09:23 AM
Indianapolis Colts DT DeForest Buckner signed a two-year, $46 million extension through the 2026 season Monday, April 15.
| Footballguys view: The move is the latest by Indianapolis to solidify one of its foundational players after numerous other re-signings earlier in the offseason. The Colts had already committed roughly $190 million in new money to extensions for a group of returning players that includes receiver Michael Pittman Jr., cornerback Kenny Moore II, nose tackle Grover Stewart, and linebacker Zaire Franklin. Since entering the league in 2016, Buckner has the fourth-most sacks as an interior defensive lineman, behind Aaron Donald (68.5), Jones (60.5) and Cameron Heyward (56.5) -- despite drawing consistent double-teams from opponents. er ESPN.com, he has the fourth-highest double-team rate as a defensive tackle since 2020 (65%). |

Colts | Indy may have interest in Brock Bowers Sun Apr 14, 10:32 AM
The Indianapolis Colts are reportedly interested in Georgia TE Brock Bowers and could select him if he is still available with the No. 15 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. If Bowers is off the board by then, the Colts would likely make drafting a cornerback a top priority.
| Footballguys view: The Colts have the no.15 overall pick, and by that time Bowers should be off the board. We could make the argument that he's the no.3 talent in this class regardless of position. Bowers is a weapon that can fly down the field and attack the vertical seam of a defense. The Colts have guys like Kylen Granson and Mo Alie-Cox, but Bowers would be a huge upgrade. |
Colts | Xavier Worthy visiting Colts Fri Apr 12, 10:14 AM
Texas WR Xavier Worthy is visiting the Indianapolis Colts Friday, April 11.
| Footballguys view: Worthy can flat out fly, and that's just one of the reasons teams are interested in him. Most see Worthy as a second-round pick with upside. The Colts have a fine receiver in Michael Pittman, and we appreciate players like Alec Pierce. However, adding Worthy would give them elite speed to take the top off the defense and open things up for other players. |

Former Philadelphia Eagles quarterbacks coach Alex Tanney is expected to join the offensive coaching staff of the Indianapolis Colts, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Tanney gets to work with potential franchise QB Anthony Richardson. After working with Eagles' QB Jalen Hurts, Tanney should be able to help Richardson as he enters his second season. Richardson is incredibly talented, but he plays with no regard for his safety. Thus, Richardson is banged up quite a bit. We'll see if that can change in 2024 under Tanney's guidance. |

Indianapolis Colts impending free-agent WR Michael Pittman Jr. likely will be a candidate for the franchise tag if the two sides are not able to reach a long-term contract, in the opinion of ColtsWire's Cody Manning.
| Footballguys view: Pittman is set to be an unrestricted free agent in 2024, but we don't think he gets to the open market. Instead, the Colts should work diligently to get Pittman a contract that makes him one of the highest-paid wide receivers in the NFL. We'd imagine Pittman will get a contract that pays him more than $25 million annually. |
