Colts Trade Pittman, Ballard Laments Loss

0:00On April 2nd, the Indianapolis Colts went big this off season, locking in quarterback Daniel Jones with an extension and handing wide receiver Alec. Pierce, a huge $116 million deal. To balance the books though, they had to ship star-wide-out Michael Pymman Jr. to the Pittsburgh Steelers. General manager Chris Ballard opened up about the tough call, telling Kay Adams he hated letting Pymman go after building such a real bond, based on Straight Talk. On the field, it hurts bad. Pymman was steady since the 2020 draft, capping his Colts run with 80 catches, 784. Yards and 7 scores last season. Fans get one more shot at him when the Steelers hit Indy in the 2026 schedule. Ballard knows his business, but that trade lingers as the Colts reshaped their lineup for the long haul.
