I do wonder if he can challenge this as part of his rehab from losing 70+ lbs could have been a legal prescription of some type of roids?
Doubtful. After Ben Watson briefly retired he underwent testosterone replacement therapy but when he decided to make a comeback he was suspended because of it. So as far as I know, no kind of medical prescription loophole exists.

what makes you say so?
Reports today is that his criminal investigation is no longer active and he will likely rejoin the team for training camp. CPS case is still active though.

Well Cain is currently sitting at zero so anything he produces will be considered a huge leap from last year. But considering that's kind of a cop-out answer, I'll go with Turay. He just has unteachable physical tools and more importantly seems to be putting in the work.

I really hope Turay takes another step and develops much more as a pass rusher and run stopper this season. I hope the drafting of Banagu wasn't a sign that they don't feel Turay will. Hopefully they will be pass rusher rich in the next few seasons with Turay, Banagu, Lewis, Autry, and possibly still Houston.
From what I've heard, they are giving Banagu more reps at DE because he has come in and really shocked them at how well he is doing. His personal trainer was on a Locked On Colts Podcast recently saying that he worked exclusively on pass rush moves after the combine that he never showed at TCU. He supposedly came into rookie camp with a repertoire of moves that really surprised the Colts coaching staff. So I really do not think it was indicative of Turay at all, just that Banagu has showed out and may actually be more of a pure DE than the hybrid they thought.

I'd be surprised it the Colts signed him now. This is the time of year that they work out guys to see how they are physically and then they keep tabs on them in case there is an injury in camp or early in the season. Much like Inman last year.

If you notice the teams that contend year after year spend to the cap.. Patriots, Chiefs, Steelers, Rams, Seahawks..They don't have years back to back to back 50 million under the cap...I know we are good, but we could be better, just saying.. I'm not sure Irsay means it when he says he will spend...
Are you forgeting the Grigson years where they spent like crazy on overpaid nobodies? It's fairly obvious it is Ballard's financial plan, not Irsay's. Not sure what you have against Irsay all the time. Besides, the Colts started with over $110 million in cap space and spent over $50m of it, which in any normal year would be a great deal of spending.

He's the only draft pick that was announced as a future Hall of Famer. He wants to be compensated accordingly.

Great list! Thank God for your memory!
Three more just jumped to mind... I think Atlanta GM Thomas Dimitroff was an administrative aide. A gofer. So was Rams GM Les Snead. As well as former Jets coach Eric Mangini. The list is simply amazing.
Jim Schwartz as well.

Has he thrown at all this offseason? I thought he was supposed to work with Tom House again in California, but I'm not sure if he made it out there or not.
He and Reich have already both stated that he wasn't going to throw until OTA's. Implying that he would be throwing now if he didn't suffer the calf injury. I believe Kevin Bowen stated that he'll likely work out with House after the June mini camp and before training camp.

I hate that Luck is out. It really is a downgrade from Luck to Brissett, and it affects Parris Campbell negatively because he can't develop chemistry with Luck. Also gives us an overvalued opinion of the secondary when it's Brissett who's making mistakes. Very hard to judge anything accurately.
I hear ya, but they really aren't allowed to do very much in OTA's anyways. Very basic drills in shells and not always at full speed. The meat of the offseason work and playbook installation is training camp. That's why they are cautious with guys in the spring.
Campbell can always workout privately with Luck like Rogers did at Stanford last year. Plenty of opportunities.

Oct 3rd 2018 colts vs patriots
NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (2-2)
OUT
No Players ListedINDIANAPOLIS COLTS (1-3)
OUT
TE Jack Doyle - Hip (DNP)
T Denzelle Good - Not Injury Related - Personal Matter (DNP)
WR T.Y. Hilton - Chest/Hamstring (DNP)
RB Marlon Mack - Hamstring (DNP)
CB Kenny Moore II - Concussion (DNP)
DT Hassan Ridgeway - Calf (DNP)
CB Quincy Wilson - Concussion (DNP)They played second stringers so the outcome of that game was no surprise.
Everyone knew before that game kicked off that the colts were depleted and it would take a miracle to win it.
I was referring to the playoff game in Arrowhead.

Not really. The offense didn't show and hooker didn't play
Agree to disagree, they got their backsides handed to them in all 3 phases of the game.

I think the expectations for this team are set far too high because we won 10 out of 12 games to end the year last season.
Ive heard everything from Dynasty, Superbowl champs to guaranteed to win the division...lol. I enjoy the optimism but its a all a little pre mature IMO.
I could see a lot of people schocked if we ended 9-7 and missed the playoffs. Which really is not far fetched, its still a young team and Ballard is still building.
Agreed. Let's not forget the soft schedule down the stretch and beating a very overrated Texans team. When the team lined up at Arrowhead the following week, the talent gap was very noticeable.

Count me in the group that would not be shocked if they slightly regress. I think it's entirely possible they will be a much better team but could finish with the same or less wins due to the brutal schedule.
There's been so much hype around the team and I'm not quite sure it's totally deserved...yet. There are still a few holes on the roster. I think this team can be very good, compete for the division title and a top 4 team in the AFC if all goes right. I just don't know if they're the SB contenders that many on this board proclaim.

I highly doubt he ends up anywhere other than Cleveland. From the sound of thing's that's where he wants to be if the money is even. Dorsey seems to have made him a priority as well even though their DT position seems already set.

If we don't sign him it's because Irsay doesn't want to spend period..
This could not be more false. It's already been reported Jim has told Chris he'd open up the wallet for anything he wanted to do.
-
Lol, the Bengals, bless their hearts. I don't understand the Browns interest as they already paid Sheldon Richardson big money to be their 3-tech and have Ogunjobi at the nose. Seems like if he wants to start, Colts and Pats would have the best opportunity plus scheme fit.
-
Some reports out there that he has a visit set up to the Browns.

I mean, it's pretty hard to argue with the 5 names on that list. I think Luck is a top 7 QB all day but those top 5 are really good. Brady didn't have a top 5 regular season, but you can't not have him on the list.

If I had to guess, I'd say we offer a 2 year 25 mil contract with 13 g in the first year
I'd say that's a little high. He was due to make 13 million and typically when older guys are cut for cost savings, they usually don't sign for near the same amount.

They have been in the dumps since Barry Sanders punked them, by quitting in 1998. They are use to it
One playoff win since the Eisenhower administration will do that to you.

I don’t think I would. I really like Twitter for what it was meant to be...instant information. I think if you use it as such...you can avoid the downside.
I see that, and I like the instant info from credible news sources too, but it's the ability to have every anonymous clown chime in that brings it down. I dumped all social media years ago and I've never been happier about it.

Sad. I'd be ok if Twitter just went away alltogether.

Luck probably strained his calf riding has bike back and forth to the Speedway.
