August is supposed to
NBA Washington Wizards Jeresy be a time of hope for NFL teams. The should be full of something else: fear. Despite some smart offseason personnel moves from new GM Chris Ballard, Indy is taking major hits to its roster throughout the course of training camp and the preseason.The latest is an injury to center , who is going to need surgery to repair a "bone defect" in his foot that will cause him to mi s between six and eight weeks, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN and Stephen Holder of the .News: Ryan Kelly needs surgery. Rest didn't work per Pagano. Stephen Holder
Garrison Mathews Jersey (@HolderStephen) Colts C Ryan Kelly scheduled to undergo surgery on a bone defect in his foot Friday that is expected to sideline him 6-8 weeks, per source. Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) This is, unequivocally, terrible news for the Colts. Indy is already in a very bad spot this offseason . Luck injured his shoulder back in 2015 but .It's very , not to mention . Having surgery this offseason was
Thomas Bryant Jersey the right move, but the Colts have been . Read the tea leaves and it's clear Luck is at best a coin flip to be ready for the start of the regular season. Ballard says Luck likely will not begin the season on the PUP list (), but that should not be a surprise. Typically speaking, teams will save the roster spot for the starting quarterback in case he is ready to return early.It all becomes more problematic when you realize the Colts now could start the season with under center and a backup center snapping him the ball. If Luck is ready to go within the first quarter of the season (my hunch is he ends up mi sing four games), he too will be taking snaps from a backup center, or at least someone signed
Michael Jordan Jersey off the street. As reported, I was also told 6 to 8 weeks as the timeline on Kelly for now. First month of the season could be kaput. Stephen Holder (@HolderStephen) Kelly was a first-round pick, specifically designed as a
Johnathan Williams Jersey selection to help protect Luck, who was routinely being beaten up by opposing defenses. So if you're keeping score at home, the Colts could be mi sing their starting quarterback, starting center, two starting safeties ( is going to be out for sure and is on the PUP list after a hamstring injury to start training camp) when the season opens. And we haven't even hit the second week of the preseason yet.
