Colts' Carlies Poised for Linebacker Breakout

The Indianapolis Colts are seeking a starter-level linebacker to fill the void left by Zaire Franklins trade and Germaine Pratts departure. General manager Chris Ballard is considering Jaylon Carlies, a fifth-round safety-turned-linebacker from Missouri, who has the potential to excel in their scheme. Despite injuries hindering his progress, Carlies has shown promise with an elite coverage grade in limited action. If he stays healthy and learns from veteran teammates, he could secure the starting spot and alleviate the need for the Colts to search for a linebacker in the draft.
