The Indianapolis Colts offensive line is still in flux, with several players battling for key spots. OG Donald Thomas (knee), returning from a torn ACL, is expected to man one guard spot, while OGs Lance Louis and Hugh Thornton will battle for the other guard position. The most intriguing position may be center, where the team seems to want C Khaled Holmes to beat out recent addition Phil Costa for the starting role.

| Footballguys view: Good news for the Colts here. Wayne wants to participate in the team's minicamp, but he'll be held out as a precaution. |

Colts | Not likely to make Alex Mack substantial offer Sun Mar 30, 03:12 AM

The Indianapolis Colts are off the board for free-agent WR DeSean Jackson (Eagles), mainly because they signed WR Hakeem Nicks earlier in the free agent cycle.
| Footballguys view: Not a surprise here. The team already has a couple of deep-speed receivers in T.Y. Hilton and LaVon Brazill. |

Link to story Colts | Josh Chapman could play nose tackle Wed Mar 26, 03:40 PM
Indianapolis Colts DT Josh Chapman could play nose tackle in 2014. Chapman got praise from head coach Chuck Pagano. 'Midway through the season he was finally healthy,' Pagano said. 'He missed the whole first year and he finally gained the confidence. ... Until you get in there and you take on a double team and put that foot in the ground and take on all that weight on that knee, I think from a mental and physical standpoint he's in a great place.'

Colts | May look to defense in the draft Sun Mar 23, 02:35 AM
Indianapolis Colts general manager Ryan Grigson may look toward defense in the NFL Draft if his remarks are any indication. 'You want to continue to infuse the team with draft picks and young players that can grow together and be great together,' Grigson said. 'With that being said, yes, you can never have enough corners, you can never have enough pass-rushers and you can never have enough linemen.'
| Footballguys view: The Colts don't have a first-round pick this year as they surrendered that to the Cleveland Browns so they could acquire Trent Richardson last year. In the second round, we could see the Colts go after a corner like Marcus Roberson (Florida) or a pass-rusher like Trent Murphy (Stanford). |
Colts | Two expected to compete for center job Sat Mar 22, 12:44 PM
Indianapolis Colts general manager Ryan Grigson indicated C Phil Costa and C Khaled Holmes will compete for the starting center job next season.
Link to story Colts | Dwayne Allen healthy Thu Mar 20, 02:44 PM
Indianapolis Colts TE Dwayne Allen (hip) said he's 100 percent in his rehab but is unsure when he'll return to the practice field this offseason. He's participating in Pilates and other rehab activities three days a week.
| Footballguys view: The Colts could certainly use him to help on offense but now that he's back there are a lot of different mouths to feed. Allen had minimal impact his rookie year and missed almost all of last year due to injury--we don't expect big things from him now that Hakeem Nicks has joined Reggie Wayne and TY Hilton. |

Colts | Hakeem Nicks agrees Fri Mar 14, 07:16 PM
The Indianapolis Colts agreed to an undisclosed one-year deal with free-agent WR Hakeem Nicks (Giants) Friday, March 14, according to a source.
| Footballguys view: Nicks has been slowed down by injuries over the last two years, but he still has the ability to be an impact player if he can stay healthy. Signing Nicks will allow the Colts to take some coverage away from Reggie Wayne and T.Y. Hilton. |

The Indianapolis Colts will meet with free-agent WR Hakeem Nicks (Giants) Friday, March 14.
| Footballguys view: Reggie Wayne may return but there are a lot of questions there. And while TY Hilton is a great receiver, if the Colts are going to have him truly flourish, another guy to help pull coverage off him would be a good thing. Nicks might not be a WR1 anymore, but he could fit a role easily in this offense with Andrew Luck throwing the ball. |
