The devolution (or evolution?) of the 2017 Indianapolis Colts roster continued this week. Two of the biggest returning defensive players from 2016 were both lost. Defensive lineman Henry Anderson was just starting to look like the guy who showed flashes of dominance in his rookie season. Vontae Davis had been struggling but got into a ridiculous fight with the Colts coaching staff and front office over being demoted. He elected to get surgery on a groin injury that may have still be bothering him and was subsequently released.
The positive news is that the secondary play has continued improving over the course of the season with young players leading the way.
