Doug S. (Shingle Springs, Calif.):
“Hello again, yes it has been a long season highs and lows you bet, why speak of a qb now? I am sure JB is going to be more than just fine, Defensive Corners are still my biggest concerns at depth, Wideouts and Tightends are also a concern at depth.
That said it would be appreciated to list out those physical corners not just the guy who can run with the big wideouts or the break away tightends. Any names come to mind?
Thank you again for the mailbag to air out and learn football concerns, Very Respectfully, Doug S”

We’ve already gone over the Jacoby Brissett angles multiple times, so I’ll get to your next points. To me, depth is not really an issue at cornerback for the Colts, other than finding a quality backup to Kenny Moore II at the slot cornerback spot, which was apparent once Moore II went down with what ended up being a season-ending ankle injury back in Week 13. Think about it: at that cornerback spot, you currently have Moore II, Pierre Desir and Rock Ya-Sin, two guys who earned new contracts last offseason and other who was a 2019 second-round pick. You also have Marvell Tell III, a 2019 fifth-round draft pick who can only get better with more reps. Then there’s Quincy Wilson, the former second-round pick whose role diminished throughout the 2019 season and is facing a “big year” in 2020, according to general manager Chris Ballard. So that’s five players right there at the cornerback position that are set to return — now, could the team continue adding competition there? Absolutely. But as of now, you’re in decent shape.
