We just signed Hoyer- 3 yr 12 M, 9M Guaranteed

[Workhorse]

The Colts signed Brian Hoyer to a 3 year $12 million deal.

I like the signing, but man that looks like we are making him our backup instead of a 2 game guy.

I do like the fact that's a new Pats QB- the systems look very similar...

I agree. Like the signing but that's quite a bit of guaranteed cash. Think we may have gotten into a bit of a bidding war.

I see it as guaranteeing insurance in case Brissett flames out and Kelly stops taking his meds.

Since we don’t have cap issues, does a 3 year deal mean they may not extend Brissett?

But Walker is on the practice squad. We’re not carrying 4 quarterbacks. Kelly looks like the odd man out to me.

Good. He's about the best competent backup the Colts could have got at this point in time.

Kelly cant be on the active roster. 2 game suspension. He may push someone off the PC when he returns

If I recall it right, we have an extra CB and an extra RB on the roster now.

It’s insurance just in case
