Welcome to the Indianapolis Colts, Xavien Howard. General Manager Chris Ballard agreed to terms with veteran cornerback Xavien Howard early in the morning on August 18th, and the team gets some much-needed help in the often-lambasted cornerback department.
Now, were this 2019, this would be a league-altering signing and national news. In 2025? Not so much. Howard hasn't seen game action since he got hurt in 2023 with the Miami Dolphins. At his peak, this was a cornerback who was among the best ballhawks in the game, leading the league in interceptions in both 2017 and 2020.
