Unlike their AFC South rivals, the Colts haven't made any splashy additions around their QB this offseason. Here's what that means for Indy.
What the Indianapolis Colts have done this offseason to build around Anthony Richardson hasn't piqued national interest. Certainly not in the way their AFC South rivals have done for their quarterbacks. The Texans added Pro Bowlers Stefon Diggs and Joe Mixon. The Titans invested in Calvin Ridley, Tony Pollard and Tyler Boyd. The Jaguars added Gabe Davis in free agency and used their first-round pick on LSU's Brian Thomas Jr., who led the FBS in receiving touchdowns last season.
With at least 900 receiving yards in three of his four NFL seasons, including 1,000 yards in two of the last three years, Pittman has never had the same quarterback for back-to-back seasons. And in 2024, he'll be able to pick up from where he left with Richardson, who played four games as a rookie. Slot receiver Josh Downs, who had 68 receptions for 771 yards and three touchdowns as a rookie, should naturally make a step forward in Year 2 too.
