While talking to reporters Tuesday, Colts general manager Chris Ballard denied the reports that the team was looking to add free agent wide receiver Julio Jones to the roster.
“I know there’s reports out there, but those reports are wrong,” Ballard said, per the Indianapolis Star’s Joel A. Erickson.
He was clear there have been no discussions about signing Jones and reuniting him with his former quarterback Matt Ryan, who was traded by the Falcons to the Colts in March. Ballard added that wide receiver TY Hilton is still “in the mix” to re-sign but said, “I just don’t see quite the desperation,” when referring to the team’s receiving corps, per the Indianapolis Star’s Nate Atkins.
