Offensive Weapons Added to Bolster Colts Offense

The Indianapolis Colts have been a ground and pound team for each of the last two seasons. While this has led to back-to back rushing titles and MVP seasons for Jonathan Taylor, the Colts need to find a better balance to move to the next level. Through the draft, the Colts have revamped their entire passing game, led by rookie QB Shane Leonard. Leonard was a 4th round pick out of Alabama. While he is only a 65 overall, Leonard sports an impressive 92 throw power with decent accuracy at all levels. One game into his career and he has already had a better game then all of what Jalen Hurts could do last season. This will be an exciting season for the Colts. To help out the young gunslinger, the Colts added 3 speedsters, Will Jefferies (94 speed), Stefon Boss (93 speed), and Glenn Wallace (95 speed). Outside of Parris Campbell, all other Colts WR's have been demoted as the Colts look to add more firepower all over the field. The explosiveness was evident in the Colts first game as Wallace and Jeffries combined for 208 yards and 2 TD's on 7 catches. While Indianapolis' defesne will always be a concern, I think it's safe to say that the offense is ready for a monster season. Did we mention that they also have 3rd year back Jonathan Taylor, coming off of his second consecutive MVP season?
