Colts named landing spot for All-Pro WR
The Colts could do with another weapon.
Colts named landing spot for All-Pro WR originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . The Indianapolis Colts ' offense is looking in good shape ahead of the 2026 season, but the unit could always do with more weapons for Daniel Jones.
Alec Pierce was signed to a huge extension, which meant Michael Pittman Jr. had to be moved on, and now the Colts don't really have a quality No. 2 weapon.
Could that be Josh Downs? Maybe. But Sports Illustrated's Gilberto Manzano has named the Colts as a potential landing spot for one All-Pro receiver, and I don't mind it -- Deebo Samuel.
“Samuel hasn’t made the same impact he did in his All-Pro 2021 season, but taking fewer snaps in the backfield likely added a few extra years to his career,” Manzano wrote . “The 30-year-old only had 17 carries last season and was asked to do more as a receiver due to the injuries to No. 1 wideout Terry McLaurin and star quarterback Jayden Daniels, who only played in seven games.
