Building Shane Steichen's Colts Offense: Day 3 Fits
For the first time since 2018, the Indianapolis Colts will be entering this season under a new head coach, former Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen.
When hiring an offensive-minded head coach, you are also bringing on board their system and identity. Steichen’s success with the Eagles over the past two years is important to note, as well as his time with the Los Angeles Chargers as their OC from 2019-20.
So after studying each offense that Steichen had a large hand in creating, it is fair to make assumptions and predictions of what he could be bringing to the Colts. One area that seems highly likely is Steichen’s past experience of attacking defenses vertically will come with him to Indianapolis.
Multiple elements on the roster need tuning if that reality is to come to fruition. With the 2023 NFL Draft around the corner, there are multiple fits throughout the draft that fit Steichen’s offense. In this three-part series, we will be looking at prospects in Rounds 2 & 3 as well as Day 3 that fit the Colts’ new offense.
