Injuries leaving Colts wondering what could have been
If it weren’t for injuries, this team had the talent to be a Super Bowl contender. Now after twelve games, they are just a sad shell of themselves.
Injuries are a part of the game of football. They have been since the invention of the game. But I’m not sure any team, certainly any Colts team, has been decimated with injuries the way the 2019 Colts have. It completely derailed any chance of success this season.
It started before training camp. Andrew Luck had a calf injury that evolved into an ankle injury. It ended up being the straw that broke the camel’s back and led to him retiring immediately after the third preseason game. All of a sudden, the Colts were down their franchise quarterback.
