Colts: 3 Potential Replacements for Ashton Dulin
The Indianapolis Colts suffered a major loss on Thursday with the season-ending injury to wide receiver Ashton Dulin.
The fifth-year former All-Pro suffered a torn ACL during Wednesday's joint practice against the Chicago Bears and was placed on Injured Reserve on Thursday. Dulin was a steady fourth-fifth option as a receiver, but where his loss really will be felt is on special teams. It wasn’t long ago (2021) that Dulin was a Second-Team All-Pro and one of the best gunners in the entire NFL.
The Colts can choose to attack this loss in three different ways.
One is internally by looking at a receiver already on the roster that plays special teams. Next, they keep a receiver that does not play special teams at all and then give gunner duties to someone else, or they go outside the organization to bring the missing someone in.
