Colts offseason gamble is already paying off far more than expected

The Indianapolis Colts had some tough changes to make this past offseason. The quarterback position was a huge unknown, even with third-year first-round quarterback Anthony Richardson returning. The offensive line was also going to be missing two key players.

In free agency, Indy lost its long-term starting center, Ryan Kelly, and right guard, Will Fries, and replaced them with players already on the roster: center Tanor Bortolini and guard Matt Goncalves. Was that going to be the answer to helping keep new QB1 Daniel Jones clean?

Actually, yes. Not only that, but running back Jonathan Taylor would have the holes to run through to win multiple AFC Offensive Player of the Week awards before the first month was done.
