Colts Eye Jauan Jennings for WR Upgrade

0:00On April 30th, the Indianapolis Colts need a solid outside wide receiver 2 upgrade, and the top name still on the market is San Francisco. 49ers free agent, Jawan Jennings. This 28-year-old beast, a seventh-round pick back in 2020, just wrapped a strong season with 55 catches for 600. 43 yards and 9 touchdowns in 15 games. Earlier this off season, the Colts traded their big possession guy, Michael Pittman Jr., to the Green Bay Packers to free up cap space after locking. An alley pierce with a huge deal. That leaves them thin on the edge, relying on guys like Nick Westbrook, Ikeine, Ashton-Doulin, and Rookie Dion Berks, who all feel more like depth. Pieces than starters. Jennings stands 6 foot 3, 212 pounds, bringing that physical presence and run blocking grid, the Colts miss now. Their coaches praised him as one of the most intense blockers they've seen, perfect for powering Jonathan Taylor's ground game and manhandling.

1:03Defenses. He just visited the Minnesota Vikings, but no deal went down yet, and with the Colts sitting on $26,700,000 in. Cap space. They're in prime position to snack him before someone else does. In a make or break year with the front office on the hot seat, passing on a clear upgrade like Jennings could haunt them, time to make that call, and bolster the squad.
