  Colts | Ben Banogu on the bubble    Mon Jul 11, 08:36 AM

Indianapolis Colts DE Ben Banogu is on the roster bubble in training camp. Banogu, a second-round pick in 2019, has 19 tackles and 2.5 sacks in his career.

Footballguys view: The Colts have thrown a ton of picks at the defensive end position in recent years, but they also signed Yannick Ngakoue this offseason, so there could be a numbers problem if they want to keep everyone they have invested in.

  Colts | Several candidates to start at DE    Sun Jun 7, 03:03 PM

Indianapolis Colts DEs Kemoko Turay, Ben Banogu and Al-Quadin Muhammad are expected to compete for one of the starting defensive end jobs during training camp.

Footballguys view: Turay has the highest ceiling, but is coming off of an ankle injury that ended his 2019 in October. The Colts invested second round picks in Turay and Banogu, so they need to get some production out of that spot opposite Justin Houston.
