Per Schefter.

Muhammad comes back to the Colts after 1 year in Chicago.

Kwity, Dayo, Tyquan, Ebukam, Kareem, Avery, Leo and now Muhammad. That's a lot of DE's. Maybe one or more of them is injured or under performing.

I'm not counting Adebawore, as Ballard has said he will compete for backup 3-tech.

Some of them can step down inside to the DT slots

Still time, but I wish Ballard worked as hard to add OL depth as he has DL. Taking a stupid risk if they start the season where they currently are.

They have 13 plus one on injured list. There will be more available after camp starts

Good for a goaline anti run set.

Why would he want to do that? We all know that Raimann will continue to improve and be able to lockdown the LT spot, Nelson and Kelly will get back to their pre-'22 forms, Fries will make a huge leap in his 2nd year of starting, and Smith will be able to knock off the offseason rust earlier and play as well in the first half of the season like he does in the 2nd half. And of course no one on the OL will get hurt.

thats good to know.

It is good to know as it eases concern over arguably the most concerning position group going into the season. It also explains why Ballard has pretty much done the bare minimum this offseason with the OL.
