INDIANAPOLIS – Free agency is two and half weeks old and Chris Ballard is a man of his word.

Ballard, who was entering his first ever free agency as an NFL general manager, stressed the need to add competition throughout his roster.

He’s done that with 10 free agent signings, the most the Colts have had in team history. The 10 outside free agents address every position except quarterback and cornerback. How active were the Colts this month? Consider that from 2003-11, the Colts signed a grand total of 10 free agents.

While Ballard didn’t hesitate in trying to re-tool his roster, the GM stayed away from any mega contracts.
