Building Shane Steichen's Colts Offense: Round 2 Fits
For the first time since 2018, the Indianapolis Colts will enter this season under a new head coach, former Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen.
When hiring an offensive-minded head coach, you also bring their system and identity on board. 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 bring to the Colts. One area which seems highly likely is that Steichen’s experience of attacking defenses vertically will come with him to Indianapolis.
Multiple elements on the roster need tuning if that 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 look at prospects in Rounds 2 and 3 as well as Day 3 that fit the Colts’ new offense.
To begin, we will take a look at possible offensive fits that could be found in the second round.
