INDIANAPOLIS — When Frank Reich finally got his man, finally convinced Reggie Wayne to join the coaching staff as a full-time receivers coach, Wayne took a hard look at the Colts receiver room.
Indianapolis had assembled some talented young players, to be sure.
But man, they were young. Fifth-year receiver Keke Coutee, who spent most of the 2021 season on the practice squad, has been in the NFL the longest (four years), and Michael Pittman Jr. has the most catches by far -- Pittman has 128, the others 130 combined -- even though the 24-year-old is headed into only his third NFL season.
