Will Colts add to WR position? 'We are always looking'
With question marks around the depth of the WR unit, could the Colts make an addition? Shane Steichen weighed in.
The Indianapolis Colts are considering adding to their wide receiver position, as head coach Shane Steichen confirmed on Sunday, per Colts.com. While Steichen likes the current group of receivers, he acknowledges they are "doing our research in that." With Alec Pierce and Josh Downs sidelined, the identity of the starting third wide receiver and the depth of the position are still up in the air.
Ashton Dulin and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine are the favorites for the WR3 role, while Laquon Treadwell, Anthony Gould, Deion Burks, and Coleman Owen are fighting for spots. The Colts may opt to utilize a rotation, making consistency crucial among the contenders. With Michael Pittman's production not solely expected from one player, a steady presence at WR3 could prove beneficial in defending against opponents' targeting of Downs and Pierce. However, Keenan Allen remains a high-profile free agent option.
