1 00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 1: This is the Colts Free Agent Tracker, a look at 2 00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:08,799 Speaker 1: some key in house free agents this offseason. Hey, welcome 3 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: to another Colts Free Agent Tracker podcast. This is where 4 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 1: we're looking at key free agents this offseason for the 5 00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: Indianapolis Colts. As we're about three weeks away from the 6 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: start of NFL free agency in mid March. That's when 7 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,479 Speaker 1: things really start to heat up, heading in towards the 8 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: draft at the end of April as well. I'm Matt Taylor, 9 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 1: joined by Lara Overton and the great Bill Brooks, former 10 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: Colts Ring of Honor wide receiver. Lara and Bill, thanks 11 00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: for the time today, guys. I hope you're ready because, 12 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,080 Speaker 1: as I said, this is where the NFL off season's 13 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,760 Speaker 1: really heating up. We've got the Combine next week. Bill, 14 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:42,400 Speaker 1: That's where you made your money back in the day, man, 15 00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: that's where you put your best foot forward. One of 16 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:49,000 Speaker 1: the best times of my life. The Combine. A little 17 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:51,760 Speaker 1: nervous at that time down New Orleans when it was 18 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: held there in nineteen eighty six. It was a while ago, 19 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 1: but it's interesting times. Indeed, just piggyback on that real quick, Bill, 20 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: We know that. Of course, it's the physical demands of 21 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:06,000 Speaker 1: the combine. That's the part we get to see. Then 22 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:08,399 Speaker 1: you have, of course all the medical evaluation, but then 23 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: there's the interview process as a player, as someone who 24 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: is being evaluated by all thirty two teams. What's the 25 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: most grueling mental aspect of that evaluation period you have 26 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 1: in the combine? Well, just going meeting different coaches and 27 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: missing different personnel people from different teams, that was a 28 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 1: little difficult. And all the questions, the pattern of questions 29 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: back the back, a lot of the same questions you 30 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 1: get over and over again. But just trying to be 31 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: your best in front of those guys, it was. It 32 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: was a little daunting at first, but you get used 33 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: to it and by the end you're kind of a 34 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: pro at it and just keep on doing it and 35 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: just give you put your best foot forward. Well, needless 36 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 1: to say, Bill, the combine has changed a little bit. 37 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: It's evolved over the years since nineteen eighty six, has 38 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: it not? Oh, definitely, definitely has changed since nineteen eighty six, 39 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,000 Speaker 1: And I think it's it's more in depth right now, 40 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: especially with the medical evaluation. Is that the things that 41 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: they do testing people, looking at their previous injuries, giving 42 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: them tests right there. Also, the actually interview process is 43 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,399 Speaker 1: also different now, I think than it was back then. 44 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,239 Speaker 1: I think now it's more intense than it was back then, 45 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: but back then it still was intense when you're not 46 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: used to it. But I think right now they get 47 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:24,880 Speaker 1: a better look at all the young guys coming in 48 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 1: and knowing exactly the things they have to deal with 49 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,320 Speaker 1: as far as from the injury standpoint, and also just 50 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: going out there and seeing how the guys move and 51 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 1: react on the football field as well. All right, well, 52 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: today we're talking about pass rushers, and the Colts have 53 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,359 Speaker 1: a pair of free agent pass rushers who just wrapped 54 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 1: up their rookie contracts, Kamoco Terrey and Tae Kwon Lewis, 55 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: both guys drafted in twenty eighteen, and now the Colts 56 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 1: have to make a decision on those guys and their 57 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: futures here in Indianapolis. So you know, the Colts are 58 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: gonna be weighing how much are they worth? What's their 59 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,920 Speaker 1: upside going forward? Can they stay healthy? We'll talk about 60 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: that because both guys have dealt with their fair share 61 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 1: of injuries in a Colts uniform the last couple of seasons. 62 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: So Let's start with Kamoca Trey. First, He's coming off 63 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: a career high five and a half sacks last season. 64 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: Despite missing four games. In four years, he's racked up 65 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 1: twelve sacks, seven tackles for loss. He's posted twenty nine 66 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,519 Speaker 1: quarterback hits. But again, injuries have definitely gotten his way. 67 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: He's missed twenty six of a possible sixty four regular 68 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 1: season games, and most of those stim from a gruesome 69 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: ankle injury he's sustained in twenty nineteen Week five, remember 70 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: it very vividly Kansas City Sunday Night game. Missed the 71 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: rest of that season and played less than one hundred 72 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: percent of the twenty twenty season because of it as well. 73 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 1: And even this year, Terrey wasn't a three down player. 74 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: He only played about twenty seven percent of the snaps 75 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one. So, first question, Bill, with the injuries, 76 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: how much have those injuries and his problem there, how 77 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: much have those muddied his long term potential with the 78 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: Colts as they project what he can be moving forward. Well, 79 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: I think by him missing so many games, as you stated, Matt, 80 00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: he missed twenty one games from twenty nineteen to twenty twenty, 81 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 1: so that's quite a few games a young man has missed. 82 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: But I think when they have seen him play, he 83 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: shown some potential, some athletic ability to go out there 84 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: and rush the pass very well. So I think they 85 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,280 Speaker 1: have an idea of what he can do. I think 86 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: they have an idea of who he is as an individual, 87 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,799 Speaker 1: who he is as a locker room guy, and definitely 88 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: what he can bring out there on the football field. 89 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: So I think that they like what they see now 90 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: them if them, if they bring them back or not, 91 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,919 Speaker 1: could be a different story. We don't know about that, 92 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: but I think from him being an athletic guy and 93 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: this type of deference Gus Bradley wants to install here, 94 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 1: I think he's a guy that could be beneficial in 95 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 1: this defense. And to piggyback off of that, what Bill 96 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: said is, I think that this new coaching staff that 97 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,360 Speaker 1: Gus Bradley is bringing in is really going to be 98 00:04:56,440 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: impactful in making these decisions in terms of how they 99 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: see utilizing both of these guys. And we're focused on 100 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: Komoco right now, but I do think that their opinions 101 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: will weigh heavily on the decision to bring back or 102 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 1: to not bring back or you know how aggressively they 103 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: pursue bringing back either of these guys. Because when you 104 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 1: look at how certain schemes have benefited these guys or 105 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 1: how they've been utilized situationally based on a Gus Bradley 106 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: system versus a Matt Eberflu system, will weigh a lot 107 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 1: in terms of if that plays to the favor or 108 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: to the deficit of either. When you look at Komoco Terrey, 109 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 1: Matt you think you remember that injury vividly. It happened 110 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: in front of me down there on the field. I 111 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: remember that scene all too clear, and it was devastating 112 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: because that was the point where you started to see 113 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:53,400 Speaker 1: Komoco gain so much confidence. All of the attributes, the 114 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: physical attributes have always been there. He has such a 115 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: unique skill set. He is different from any other players 116 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: that they have in that defensive line room with his 117 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: ability on the edge to rush with speed. We heard 118 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 1: Rick van Terrey talk about that unique skills that he 119 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: brings all year long. So I do think that the 120 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: Colts still have immense, immense belief in Komoko Terrey, and 121 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: they also have some investment in wanting to see him 122 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 1: develop to the potential that they envisioned when they did 123 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: draft him. When you mentioned the injury situation as well, 124 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 1: we have heard Chris Ballard talk about some different things 125 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: in regards to the injury that maybe he came back 126 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: a little bit too quickly from some things that you know, 127 00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: he was so eager to get back that you know, 128 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: there were certain injuries where he had to you know, 129 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 1: with that ankle procedure, you know, go back, have some 130 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 1: clean up done afterwards. So I do think that there 131 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,679 Speaker 1: is a sense of that it's beneficial for the Colts 132 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: to bring Komoko Tay back, and then I also think 133 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: that they have so much invested in him so far 134 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: they want to see him thrive in this system and 135 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: there's a lot of potential to do so. I've seen 136 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 1: Komoko in the building since the end of the season. 137 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: Know that he is putting in the work. He's invested 138 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,280 Speaker 1: in making sure you know that he takes every opportunity 139 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: to utilize this offseason, and I think that there could 140 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 1: be an opportunity for him to explore what is out 141 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: there because he did show those great flashes. There is 142 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,200 Speaker 1: going to be intrigue from other teams. But I do 143 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 1: think that the Colts would make a great push to 144 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 1: potentially sign one of those like one year prove it 145 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: deal type of things to see what he's able to do. 146 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 1: That gives him an opportunity to test the waters working 147 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,679 Speaker 1: with Gus Bradley and whoever the to be named defensive 148 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: line coach is. And you do want to have some 149 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: continuity within that defensive line group when you are moving 150 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: over under Gus Bradley, to see what they're able to do, 151 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: how they're able to produce, and then you're able to 152 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: see if this is a long term fit. You get 153 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: that one year deal perhaps where you test out the 154 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: potential and then each side gauges from there what's best 155 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: in the immediate future. And Matt the piggyback off of that. Yes, 156 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 1: I think he will get some looks from other teams 157 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 1: as well, because you know, he did play pretty well 158 00:07:56,960 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 1: last year coming back from that injury and they showed that, hey, 159 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 1: his ankle can't hold up during the season. And also 160 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: I think for the Colts, he's very versatile. We can 161 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: play in that two point stance, or we can play up, 162 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:12,559 Speaker 1: or he can play with his hand in the dirt. 163 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: So I think he could do both and that can 164 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: benefit the Colts as far as having someone that can 165 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: play in the two point stands once in a while 166 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: and maybe if they play that three four type of 167 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: defense or put his hand in the dirt where he 168 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 1: can be that four three guy and rush off the 169 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 1: end there and put some pressure on the quarterback. So 170 00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 1: I think he can be a player that can help 171 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,240 Speaker 1: the Coats out in their defense, but also I think 172 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 1: he can help a lot of the teams out as well. Yeah, 173 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: I agree with both of you guys. I think he's 174 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: gonna draw interest both internally and then on the outside 175 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: market as well if it gets to that point, because 176 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: you know, in his career he hasn't we haven't seen 177 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 1: him much on rundowns. But I still think, you know, 178 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: to Rick Venturi's point, which you alluded to, layer, he's 179 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: he's still the best overall just burst speed rusher the 180 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: Colts have, and that's a skill set they just really 181 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,439 Speaker 1: don't have on the roster at the moment. You know, 182 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 1: Quity pay is still developing that I'm not sure that's 183 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: Dio Dangbo's forte if you will. So, you know, I 184 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: don't know if Terrey can be a you know a 185 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 1: ten to twelve sack a season player, But I agree 186 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: with you. I think you know he adds something to 187 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: your pass rush skill set that is intriguing enough for 188 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: me to bring him back for another season on a 189 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: short term Prove a deal, if you will, and see 190 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,520 Speaker 1: what he can do in a new system under Gus Bradley, 191 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: And if he's fully healthy for an entire offseason and 192 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: hopefully for a full seventeen games, maybe he can flirt 193 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: with a bigger role in bigger production than what we've 194 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:35,080 Speaker 1: seen from him so far in his career. All right, 195 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: let's talk about Tae Kwon Lewis, because again, he's another 196 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: guy that's coming off his rookie contract and he has 197 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: suffered some of the worst injury luck I've ever seen. 198 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: We all know his story. Big game on Halloween against 199 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: the Titans. Picks off a Ryan Tannehill pass, moves it 200 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: into plus territory with the Colts leading I think by 201 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: two scores at that point. Really the Cults are in 202 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: a great position to kind of, you know, take control 203 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: fully control role of that game. Picks it off, returns 204 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: the ball the other way, he's tackled, he loses the ball, 205 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: suffers a season ending patellar tendon injury, and he was 206 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 1: playing really good football for the Colts up until that point. 207 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: But again, he's missed a lot of time. He's missed 208 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,559 Speaker 1: twenty four of sixty five career games, playing less than 209 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,079 Speaker 1: ten games in three of his four seasons. Bill, So 210 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: let's start there with the injuries again. Unfortunately, how devastating 211 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:29,440 Speaker 1: was Lewis's injury to his NFL upside and what the 212 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: Colts needed from their pass rush this past season. That 213 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: was one of the worst injuries I've seen in person, 214 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 1: just because of how it happened, right, how it happened 215 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: for the young man. He had a great play, he 216 00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: was dropping back in coverage and he made a nice 217 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 1: play on Tannehill, picked the ball off, was running towards 218 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,400 Speaker 1: the sideline, unfortunately stepped the wrong way or just the 219 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 1: tele attendon gave out, And it was just not an 220 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 1: injury you want to see in person. But I think 221 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: he was playing extremely well. He was a part of 222 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 1: that defensive line. He's a very important part of that 223 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: defensive line. For that rotation. They've talked about it, Chris 224 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: ballast talk about having a rotation on that defensive line. 225 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: To give guys breaks because guys some breath and give 226 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,719 Speaker 1: him a rest so other guys could be fresh and 227 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 1: go out there and put some pressure on the quarterback. 228 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: Having him gone and also missing his versatility out there 229 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 1: as far as being a play inside and outside, I 230 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: think that hurt the coach as well, because a lot 231 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: of times you can put him inside or put him outside, 232 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: you can run some stunts with some other guys out there. 233 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: So by him not being available for the team, that 234 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: really hurt the team in their rotation as far as 235 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 1: getting guys in and getting guys out and being effective 236 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 1: on that defensive line to get some pressure on the 237 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: quarterback and Mattey. When we heard from Chris Ballard at 238 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: the end of the season, he reflected really strongly on 239 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 1: that moment and how gutting that moment was not just 240 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: because of you know, the play and the injury itself, 241 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 1: but then the fact that the Titans recovered it were 242 00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: able to score on that play. I mean, this was 243 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: like this, Yeah, that's more the query. Next play You're 244 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 1: right now changed the entire game. It changed the entire game, 245 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: may have changed the entire season. They know the way 246 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: that that one win would could have positioned you differently. 247 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,439 Speaker 1: That is one of the more freak turn of events 248 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: I've ever seen in like sixty seconds of football of 249 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: play on the field. It was absolutely wild. I know 250 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: that Taekwon is very highly regarded within this locker room, 251 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 1: within this coaching staff, within this front offers, within this 252 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 1: front office. He's been through not only this injury. If 253 00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: you go back, you mentioned the games that he has missed, 254 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 1: the amount of games that he's missed, there have just 255 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: been this laundry list of things that have added up, 256 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: and he has continued to fight back to overcome that 257 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: and to prove his versatility in different positions within that 258 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: defensive line. And I know character wise he is incredibly 259 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 1: high character. I remember back in twenty nineteen, I was 260 00:12:58,559 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: covering a story in which and they didn't even call 261 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: the media out to cover the story because it was 262 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: Tai Kwon. We just happened to be there and Taikuon 263 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 1: was visiting a memory care unit at a senior living facility, 264 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 1: and he was just engaging with all of those people 265 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 1: who were there, all of the residents there. He was 266 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,080 Speaker 1: reading stories to them, reading books. He is someone who 267 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: is incredibly valued because of what he brings to this 268 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: locker room, to this community. I know that that injury 269 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: was devastating, beyond devastating to his teammates, to the coaches, 270 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: and to Chris Ballard to see that happen because again, 271 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,840 Speaker 1: kind of like we said with Kumoko Turay, a guy 272 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 1: who they had such high hopes for, they see such 273 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: great promise in and he's already overcome so many obstacles 274 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,160 Speaker 1: to just be available to the point that he was 275 00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 1: even in that game in the position he was to 276 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: make the interception, because in talking with him, he was 277 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 1: saying he could have given up time and time again 278 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 1: through what he's battled through. I know, Paris Campbell, that's 279 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 1: been Tai Kwon us who Paris has leaned on to 280 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: be able to go through all that he has done. 281 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: And you want to talk about a guy who has had, 282 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: you know, just in an unbelievable, unfathomable injury history. So 283 00:14:10,559 --> 00:14:13,360 Speaker 1: Paris Campbell says he leans on Tai Kwon all the time. 284 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,479 Speaker 1: I know how much that he means to this organization. 285 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 1: I do think that they will try to, in a 286 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: similar capacity to Kumoko, sit down with the defensive line coaches, 287 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: sit down with Gus Bradley, Where does he fit, where 288 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 1: is his potential, how beneficial can he be, What is 289 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 1: he currently doing to rehab from this injury, what's the 290 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: state of where he is, what's the time frame on 291 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 1: where he might be able to be back? And then 292 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: I also think that one of the things that adds 293 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 1: on to this whole conversation in terms of who you 294 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: bring back and who'd you make a play for and 295 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 1: how aggressively pursue them is what's the future of Ben 296 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 1: banago within this defense? What do you envision for him? 297 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: What does Gus Bradley want to see out of him? 298 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,680 Speaker 1: Because he's another guy who has you know, we've heard 299 00:14:55,720 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: so much about what he brings and you know where 300 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: he was drafted at very very high position, very high 301 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: expectation for Ben Banagoo, and we didn't see it last year. 302 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: He had a great preseason, a very solid preseason, but 303 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: then that was never followed through in the regular season. 304 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 1: He was, as major would say, a healthy a healthy 305 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: scratch for the majority of every game. Yes, so what 306 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:23,160 Speaker 1: is that's gonna what to me compounds this issue not issue, 307 00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 1: I guess, but this situation with who you bring back 308 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: is the Ben Banagoo factor is where is where's his 309 00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: role within all of this as well, because that has 310 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: implications I think for each of those guys. To me, 311 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: the upside of Kumoko Terre is that speed, that athleticism 312 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: that he brings off the edge. To me, the benefit 313 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 1: of Tai Kwon is the versatility that he has, the 314 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 1: amount of character, the leadership that he has as well. 315 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: And then you have a young guy in Ben Banago 316 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 1: who is still on that rookie deal that you want 317 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: to get some mileage out of. Let's not forget also, 318 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 1: both of these guys, Tai kwanis are great locker room guys. 319 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: They are great teammates out there with the colts in 320 00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 1: the locker room, supporting one another, pulling from one another. 321 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 1: And that can go a long way, because when you're 322 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: talking about free agency, a lot of times we're bringing 323 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 1: in guys you really don't know that well. You know, 324 00:16:11,960 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: you hear things about them, you're not sure, but you 325 00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: haven't experienced at firsthand. These two guys, you've experienced firsthand 326 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: how they are in the locker room, how they are 327 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 1: in the community, and how they deal with their teammates. 328 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: So that goes a long way as well as far 329 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 1: as if you want to bring these guys back or not. Yeah, 330 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 1: I think you guys both hit on the right question, 331 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: and that's something the Colts are dealing with right now. 332 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 1: I mean, where will Kamoca Terrey? Where will Tykwe Lewis? Specifically, 333 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: where will he be at healthwise at the start of 334 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: the season if he is brought back in free agency? 335 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: You know, can the Colts afford to wait on him 336 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: health wise and see where he's at and how much 337 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,240 Speaker 1: production will they get out of him because of his 338 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 1: injury that happened again late October early November because of 339 00:16:55,800 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: that injury. So that's that's something they're going to be 340 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 1: you know, watching and monitor is how he's you know, 341 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: progressing this offseason in terms of health, and that will 342 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 1: obviously dictate how much money he's given to come back 343 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: and prove it again in free agency if that does happen. 344 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,119 Speaker 1: Last question a half of you guys as we wrap 345 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 1: up here, and I'll let both of you answer this 346 00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 1: question and give you the floor. Lara start with you, 347 00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 1: despite you know, what the Colts do with Teray, despite 348 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,760 Speaker 1: what they do with Lewis in the off season and 349 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 1: free agency, to the Colts the need to bring in 350 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:28,280 Speaker 1: someone else, a proven pass rusher in free agency to 351 00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 1: go along with these guys in Dioa, Dangbo and Quittipey 352 00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: who are just coming off their first years in the NFL. 353 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: It's an interesting question, and they'll certainly do due diligence 354 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:41,160 Speaker 1: in exploring who is available. But the problem at this 355 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: position guys don't come available very often. And here you 356 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 1: have a year in which you know, you lost Deniko 357 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:50,919 Speaker 1: Autry and you lost justin Houston. You had your veteran 358 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,719 Speaker 1: proven pass rushers. They went on to thrive in other scenarios. 359 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: Deniko down in Tennessee, justin Houston, you saw the type 360 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: of season he had with the Baltimore Ravens. So I'm 361 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 1: just curious if there are going to be many opportunities 362 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: with guys on the market who you're going to be 363 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,679 Speaker 1: able to make a play for. We have seen in 364 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 1: the past the Colts don't tend they tend not to 365 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,959 Speaker 1: overspend or be overly aggressive in terms of their spending 366 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: early in free agency, and early in free agency is 367 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: typically where guys at that position go because they are 368 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 1: premium guys who don't come on the market very often. 369 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 1: What I would say is, I don't think it's likely 370 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: that you bring someone in because you have invested an 371 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 1: awful lot already in drafting the guys who you have 372 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,280 Speaker 1: QUITTI pay dioa dangbo. And then how you feel your 373 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,720 Speaker 1: depth is you know, behind those guys and surrounding those 374 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:44,960 Speaker 1: guys where you are going to reinforce that position. As 375 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: Bill said, you want to have a rotation of guys. 376 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: I would say it's certainly not off the table. I 377 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,159 Speaker 1: wouldn't say it's likely. It's going to be an interesting 378 00:18:51,560 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 1: three weeks coming up here. Yeah, I would say interesting. 379 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 1: It is an interesting question first of all, And I 380 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: think also you have to look at there's going to 381 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,439 Speaker 1: be a new system in place with Gus Bradley, so 382 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,439 Speaker 1: you're not sure of how these guys are going to 383 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:06,719 Speaker 1: adapt to it now these players haven't played in it. 384 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,520 Speaker 1: Maybe there is a possibility you can bring in a 385 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: guy that has played in this system to help these 386 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: young guys out as far as at the defensive end 387 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,400 Speaker 1: and making sure that they hey, this is how it's 388 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 1: how you rush is these are things that you do 389 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: in this system because you need to be in this position. 390 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,199 Speaker 1: So you can stop the run. You need to be 391 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: in this position so you can affect the pass or 392 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 1: put pressure on the past or so I think a 393 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 1: veteran will be valuable for the young guys if you 394 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: have someone that's played in this system, like Lara said, 395 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:38,600 Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to see who's available out there that 396 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: has played in this Gus Bradley system that is available 397 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 1: to come to the Coats. And as Lara said, usually 398 00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 1: the coaches aren't big spinners at the beginning of free agency. 399 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 1: This is something that happens maybe later on in free 400 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,840 Speaker 1: agency where the guys haven't got a lot of looks 401 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,639 Speaker 1: and there is someone out there that's played in this 402 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: system that can come here and be valuable to the 403 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:00,439 Speaker 1: young guys and help them develop in this Gus Bradley system. 404 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,719 Speaker 1: The other thing on that note, too, is that the 405 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: Colts have a lot of needs outside of just this 406 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,439 Speaker 1: position where they are going to have to target some 407 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: of the free agency market. So I feel like when 408 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: you invest your most recent first and second round picks 409 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 1: at this position, it's not an area where you are 410 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: willing to invest a whole lot of additional money, especially 411 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: if you do have strong confidence in the guys who 412 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: you have in this locker room like a Ben Banago, 413 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: and you're able to bring back potentially a guy like 414 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,680 Speaker 1: Komoco or Tai Kwan and even Alquity Mohammad, who is 415 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 1: another hot topic I know this offseason. Yeah, I think 416 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,640 Speaker 1: we'll get to al KaDee Mohammed in his zone, Vannette, 417 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: if you will, And I do agree with you. But 418 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:43,440 Speaker 1: you know, we saw the direction that the Colts went 419 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 1: last offseason and what they were going to do at 420 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 1: defensive end, and they were going to go buy committee, 421 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 1: right as you said justin Houston, Deniko Autry. Those guys 422 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,160 Speaker 1: left in free agency. But the issue now is part 423 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 1: of that committee is being broken up or at least 424 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 1: as the potential too. Right. I mean, I don't know 425 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: what the odds are of all three of those guys 426 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: toa Lewis and Muhammad all coming back in free agency. 427 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,960 Speaker 1: And Chris Ballard said after the season that maybe they 428 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: did need a veteran presence on the defensive line last season, right, 429 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,879 Speaker 1: a guy that has proven himself to be able to 430 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 1: get crucial sacks and pressures and crunch time. And I 431 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: think that with Quitty in a dang Bo, well those 432 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 1: guys still being very young and pretty raw, I think 433 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 1: it would help this team to have someone else to 434 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: rely on and take some of that pressure off of 435 00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 1: those guys in key moments of games. And like we've 436 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 1: all said, the Colts don't have that first round pick. 437 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 1: So my gut is telling me that the Colts might 438 00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 1: prioritize a free agent pass rusher this offseason and free agency. 439 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:45,439 Speaker 1: And you guys are right. I mean, the Colts are 440 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: never gonna overpay, They're never gonna reach just to say 441 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: they did something, made a move. But I think if 442 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 1: the production and the money were to match up, I 443 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: think that's something the Colts will have no hesitancy doing 444 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: as they continue to build up the the reliance if 445 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: you will, on Quitty Pay and Dio Adangbo. We forget 446 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:06,200 Speaker 1: about those guys still only being a guy that's only 447 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: had one year and with a Dangbo, a guy that's 448 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: basically add only a half a season in the NFL. 449 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: It is, it is really intriguing what Bill says because 450 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: you look at Gus Bradley's history and the stops that 451 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: he's made, of course most recently in Vegas. Prior to that, 452 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: with the chargers and all I mean stops all over 453 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 1: the league where he has been, where you could potentially 454 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,360 Speaker 1: tie a guy that he has a history went with 455 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,040 Speaker 1: that would make an easy transition. That's something that's to 456 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 1: be really interesting to follow for sure, is you know, 457 00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 1: if there is any sort of continuity and who is 458 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 1: available that you could bring in to help in this 459 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,120 Speaker 1: transition period for this defense, in particular the defensive line. 460 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: That's what type of veteran and I would like sim 461 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:45,960 Speaker 1: bringing someone that has experience in a system, because that 462 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: can go a long way with helping these young guys. 463 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 1: As I said earlier, I think that will go a 464 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: long way in helping Quitty, you know, Dio get adjusted 465 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 1: to this type of system going out there and performing 466 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,920 Speaker 1: in any other guys on that defensive line, that's play 467 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: that's going to play in this system. Having a guy 468 00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: that they can kind of go to in the locker room, 469 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: go to in the classroom and say, hey, look, I 470 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 1: see this happening. What should I have done here? What 471 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: can I do here? This is happening in practice? What 472 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: should I do here? A guy that they can rely 473 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: on that has done it and has been successful in 474 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 1: this system. Indeed, great work guys. That's a look at 475 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 1: Kamoca Terrey and Taekwon Lewis with Larah Overton and Bill Brooks. 476 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: And the Colts also have key free agent pass rusher 477 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 1: again and al KaDee Muhammad will examine him later in 478 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: the coming weeks on his own show, if you will. 479 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: We've already looked at left tackle Eric Fisher, and then 480 00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:38,199 Speaker 1: next week we're talking about more premium position free agents 481 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 1: for the Colts, guys like Zach Pascal at wide receiver 482 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 1: and mo Ali Cox at tight end. And we'll also 483 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 1: look at the future of cornerback with Xavier Rhodes in 484 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,719 Speaker 1: Indianapolis as well. And don't forget, we've got our Inside 485 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: the Draft series starting this week as well.
