Indianapolis Colts, you wanted and waited for general manager Chris Ballard to finally make a move at the NFL trade deadline. In 2025, after nine years of doing nothing, Ballard stunned everyone: NFL fans, Indy fans, and likely even his own players. Indianapolis has traded for Sauce Gardner.
Gardner is inarguably one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL. The fact that the Jets traded for him is seemingly ridiculous. Yes, maybe Indianapolis had to give up a lot to acquire the All-Pro cornerback, but he is completely worth it. No player Indy was going to draft was going to be as good as Gardner.
