Hickerson's record was set in a 16-game season, but Franklin is still on pace to surpass that, as he would have 240 tackles after 16 games at his current pace.

Not too bad for a 7th-round draft pick.

Not true, the Colts invested a whole 7th round pick in LB depth.

In addition, the Colts signed a depth LB familiar with Lou Anarumo's defense...former Bengal Joe Bachie.

Over the last few years in Cinci, he was mainly a Special Teams contributor with a few spot starts on defense.

I'm hoping someone can unseat Zaire from his starting role. Then he and Speed can focus on their podcast.
