THE SKINNY:
Perhaps the most wide-open position group on the Colts' roster heading into the season, the linebackers will be counted on to utilize their speed and athleticism to make plays all over the field for this new-look Colts defense.
While the likes of Anthony Walker, Antonio Morrison and Jeremiah George return from last year's Colts team, there will be several new faces vying for starting jobs at the WILL, MIKE and SAM linebacker positions, including draft picks Darius Leonard (second round) and Matthew Adams and Zaire Franklin (seventh round), while free agent signings Najee Goode and Tyrell Adams also look to impose their will on opposing ballcarriers.
