With the NFL trade deadline on the horizon, we will be keeping tabs on any and all rumors and reports as they pertain to the Indianapolis Colts.
The Colts are currently 6-1 on the season. They boast the best record in the NFL and are the top seed in the AFC.
However, even with all of that success so far, there are needs that could be addressed, specifically at cornerback and defensive end.
Put all of that together, and the recipe is there for GM Chris Ballard to take a swing.
When it comes to making any potential deal, the Colts currently have eight draft picks in 2026, one in each of the first six rounds and two in the seventh.
Indianapolis also has $4.188 million in available salary cap space, which ranks 28th in the NFL.
The NFL trade deadline is November 4th at 4:00 PM ET.
