I suppose you're right. Nevertheless, sad to hear his season is over. I like the guy, I hope we bring him back. He won't be as expensive as he would have been after last season.

Apparently we're resigning Ross Travis to take his place

I Guess that is the best news here, a lot of folks were pretty high on him and hoping he would make the team. Hopefully he gets some game experience and we will know more about him as a next year prospect.

Things are about to get a lot tighter in coverage with Ebron out now. He was one of the few mismatch problem defenses had to account for.

Time for Cox to step it up.

Ebron came here because of Andrew Luck. Andrew quit and Jacoby, bless him, can't pass the ball anywhere near how Luck could. I've enjoyed having Ebron on the Colts and I like having guys with spirit and personality. He really got screwed. I doubt he'll be back and I hope him the best wherever he ends up (unless it's New England or a division rival). It's Randy Travis time...

I agree largely with this sentiment. though I hope there's a better chance that he'll be back than everyone here seems to believe. Why wouldn't we want him back? I'm not arguing the guy is perfect by any stretch, but I think everyone is fixated on a few of his bad plays this year but is forgetting how effective he was last year with a good QB.

He seems like a playmaker to me even though this year wasn't his best (though apparently he's been dealing with the ankle problems all year). He's also still only 26 years old. And it's not like we have another player of his caliber to replace him.

I take it back. I now agree Ebron probably won't return. Just read a few articles about his injury. According to Holder, it looks like Ebron made a "business decision" to have the ankle procedure and the Colts weren't thrilled with the idea. Doesn't sound like the recipe for a return.

I find this troubling not only because I'm disappointed that Ebron likely won't return, but also because it suggests to me that Ebron doesn't see much hope for the Colts this season (since I assume he'd do what he could to play if he thought the Colts were a legit contender). Not that the last few games have given us any reason to believe the Colts will make serious noise in the playoffs if they get there, but I expect the players themselves to be believers even if few others are.
