I get that, just not why that's Indianapolis' problem.

Ballard and Irsay sure are nice guys.

I have no idea what is going on here but it sure feels like they are trying to make some cap room. Corner backs are hard to find.

What’s likely happening is the Colts are in rebuilding mode. Which is sad because they never seemed to have actually got to winning mode under Ballard.

I think you are correct about rebuilding. I also know that I don't want dipshit Ballard anywhere near the rebuild. Give him this year then bye.

Might as well shop Buckner while we're at it. He could bring a nice pick back.

Matt Ryan reportedly being released. He and Gilmore leaving frees up $27M in cap space.

Yep. Remember when Jim gave Andrew $24M right after he screwed us and set us back ten years? Nice guy. 2023 will be year five of the ten years. Halfway done.

Gilmore’s more than 30 years old, and he’s under contract for another year. What’s the sense of keeping him around for what will likely be a lost season, only to lose him to free agency? Trade hi, get a draft pick, and use the cap space you carve out to sign a younger piece who’ll still be in his prime in 2 years.
