I think flowers is vested. Not sure though.

I’m pretty sure I read today that he has to go through waivers.

That might be an advantage for us if we want him considering we are 1-4.

I think your right. This is his 4th season. So last year.  I forget where we are on the waiver wire. We should know soon because wasn’t he released yesterday?

I believe we are third.  I think he was released yesterday.  Maybe there is a chance we find out tonight?

I found this article and it’s 3 years to be vested. So if that is still true he is a FA.

This one says less then four years though.

Great!

 

Can T.Y. play corner?

Or LT lol

He can still stretch the field and they'll respect him for it.  So can Campbell.

 

We haven't really used him much since 2018 to stretch the field. Even with a good OL.

I'll keep hoping though. He still has plenty enough speed to run a deep slant and break some LB ankles.

My guess is he plays limited snaps and isn't much of a factor in the game. Colts made a bad choice to bring him back. (I agreed with it at the time too though) 

I am guessing he struggles to regain his form post serious injury for the rest of the season and then retires. Which sucks cause I love me some TY.

I think it was the right call. We've been fine without him so far, but he will bring some added production in the flats and on the perimeter, and he should help draw some doubles (which have been going to Pittman). 

 

I agree also, he'll be on a snap count, but I could see him getting 50%, which is plenty in our rotation. It'll help immensely freeing up Campbell in the slot, and overall just a lot of added speed to slot and Z.

 

My only concern is that it might disrupt some chemistry that has started coming together.

He has looked solid, and getting better and better. 

Still would like to see him on more deep slants and go routes. Not sure that's a Reich thing though even when our OL gets back to health.

I think Tell gets promoted this week and may play some if Rock and Rhodes remain out. Chesley and Bopete looked lost.

 

T.Y being activated may spell the end of Stallworth (7 DT's is a luxury we can't afford)

Just not so sure Tell is in the plans. We've brought in guys off the street that we've went to over Tell. And we chose Chachere over him to start on the 53. We would have likely kept Chachere over Tell on the PS had he not gotten grabbed by Philly. Trying to hold out hope for Tell a bit as I know the rust likely sat in last year, but my hope is dwindling.

Should be a FA (3 years vesting and he's played enough games in the the years).

But even if we did grab him, doubt he'd be playing early. Maybe an emergency guy.

Bob Condatta of the Seattle Times said that the waiver transaction went through Wednesday and any team claiming Flowers would find out Thursday.  He stated that Pete Carroll said he did not request his release.  This report was part of a Pro Football Rumors article a few hours ago.

Good to know. So we should find out tomorrow. He is very tall so he kind of fits the mold. I read something today that he was the only player willing to talk about the Seattle bad defense. Seems like a ok guy.

He does seem like a ok guy.  Of course I am hoping we get him.  Tomorrow is the day so we will know soon enough.

 

 

[2006Coltsbestever]

He couldn't of picked a better game to come back too. We need some cheering up and energy after that gut wrenching loss. Maybe we can reel off 3 or 4 wins in a row, we will see?

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I can’t wait to see if Dayo comes off IR after this game.

He is probably on the verge of breaking something again...not too sure it's "out".

[coltsfeva]

   Rock went from “garbage” to “our best corner”. Makes me wonder how much is talent and how much is simply technique and communication.

     Example:  The first TD (long pass against BoPete #33). Why did Blackmon roll to that side? 
     Maybe they’ll pick up Flowers and maybe they’ll just coach these guys up but when they were healthy, they dominated Baltimore.

      Here’s hoping the secondary gets healthy and starts to gel.

Rocks  problem was always technique then he would grabby.

[NannyMcafee]

Maybe the Colts can go on a run and string up some consecutive wins. My biggest concern will continue to be Frank Reich. 

 

There's no doubt in my mind there is a lot of talent on this team. 

 

The Colts only real chance here is to win out vs the division and win quite a few other games. Injuries really screwed this team from day 1 of training camp. 

 

Here's hoping the season isn't completely over.

This video is good. Daniel and Colin mention how the colts are missing special players at key positions. EDGE, CB, LT and even mentions WR. The hard question here is how does Ballard justify paying Nelson that much money when that money can go to one of those key positions. Some tough questions need to be answered. Hopefully we have one  settled with Dayo and Paye.

 

 

[IrsaysArmy]

I have a decent feeling about TY coming back. He’s not a short/intermediate pass catcher. Jacoby and Rivers did him no help. I think he’ll succeed some with Wentz and his ability to extend plays.

 

it’ll probably take some time but we’ll see

[Dingus McGirt]

I know much negativity will head my way for this...TY is a great team presence, yes - but will he take snaps away from the Colt's developing crop of younger receivers?

If Reich does it right TY will just be a complimentary peace.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Lmao

 

 

[JediXMan]

This will probably be his last year as a Colt and probably his career.

 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Lmao. Luck have regrets?

I think it's the exact opposite. Andrew most likely recommended retirement and T.Y. wasn't ready to retire.

 

So in the end, Luck supported T.Y.'s decision and I'm sure he just wanted him to get healthy and stay healthy.

[LiveAndLetAddai]

  He most likely won't return to WR1 staus again, but he is a crafty vet and positive influence.  Glad he is trending towards playing.

[chickenMan]

Honestly I don’t think he’ll come back this week. I’d be shocked if he plays against the Texans or 49ers

Even if he doesn’t play just having him on the sideline will be a big boost.

He did say in the past his next contract would be his last, and that might be true more now than then

No he said the opposite. He said he expects him to play. He can start practicing next week if he is ready.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I love this picture of TY and Carson.

 

 

[Narcosys]

absolutely won't make a bit of difference.
