I don’t question Ballard’s ability to draft or his ability to “win” transactions. I question his ability / desire to assemble a roster to compete NOW. Irsay’s anger may have given Ballard the push he needed. We’ll see.

Looks like he may be part way there:
Update (2:48 PM EST): On ‘The Pat McAfee Show’, Colts general manager Chris Ballard indicated that Ryan’s recent restructuring should free up $11.8M of additional cap space:
Matt Ryan has agreed to add more guaranteed money on his contract and restructure his deal with #Colts, per @JFowlerESPN.
Ryan doing this opens up $11.8 million in cap space to use immediately. pic.twitter.com/bAXtN2Vsjs
