Earlier this month, we wrote about a trio of teams that could potentially make a trade with the Minnesota Vikings this offseason to acquire quarterback Kirk Cousins.

Among these three teams was the Indianapolis Colts, who are now officially in need of a new starting quarterback after Philip Rivers announced his retirement from the NFL on Wednesday.

With Rivers not returning and the Colts not having a top-15 selection in the upcoming 2021 NFL Draft, exploring trade options to acquire a veteran quarterback is a path they could take during the next few months.
