INDIANAPOLIS — At this time last year, as the Indianapolis Colts were gearing up for the start of training camp, the storyline about the team's roster centered mostly on the unknown — particularly on the defensive side of the ball.

After a 10-win season that saw the Colts advance to the Divisional Round of the playoffs, most of those questions were answered.

But while several starters and key contributors on both sides of the ball, as well as on special teams, are set to return to the team in 2019, there are many newcomers that hope to shake things up a little bit by the time the Colts report to Grand Park Sports Campus in Westfield, Ind., on July 24 for the start of training camp.

So with the Colts' 2019 offseason workout program now complete, it's a perfect time to reset and take a position-by-position look at the team's 90-man roster heading into camp (newcomers from last year's 90-man roster in italics):

OFFENSE

» Quarterbacks (4): Jacoby Brissett, Chad Kelly, Andrew Luck, Phillip Walker

» Running backs (5): Nyheim Hines, Marlon Mack, Spencer Ware, Jordan Wilkins, Jonathan Williams

» Wide receivers (13): Deon Cain, Parris Campbell, Ashton Dulin, Daurice Fountain, Devin Funchess, Penny Hart, T.Y. Hilton, Krishawn Hogan, Steve Ishamel, Marcus Johnson, Zach Pascal, Chester Rogers, Jordan Veasy
