Their top 10 cap hit players have a combined salary of ~$130M w/ only ~$27M of that guaranteed. Also, they ~$120M in estimated cap space for '24. Unfortunately Simmons and most of their top players aren't going anywhere.

The Colts added RB Phillip Lindsay to the practice squad today.

I like the move - stash him there for the time being and then bring him up if there is an injury to RB1 or RB2.

I think he would have probably gotten RB3 over Jackson, if he played special teams

The problem with having a guy like Lindsay on the practice squad is that the minute someone loses a back to injury, they’re signing him.

It is the price of keeping a QB3.
