are halfway through training camp and it appears that their plan for the safety position is not unfolding exactly how they had hoped.
Julian Blackmon is the one piece of the safety puzzle that will allow Colts general manager Chris Ballard to sleep easier at night. The 25-year-old safety signed a one-year deal this offseason to return to the Colts after not seeing the market develop for his services as he had hoped.
