The Indianapolis Colts their biggest offseason in recent memory after failing to make the playoffs during the 2019 season. It’s a long process and one that will be littered with difficult decisions for general manager Chris Ballard.

Now three years in as the leader of the front office, Ballard faces some big decisions over the next few months. Most of it revolves around the quarterback situation, but there are some other decisions that will be tough for Ballard.

Here are the five toughest decisions Ballard has to make this offseason:

The QB situation

The Colts currently have three quarterbacks under contract for the 2020 season. That would be starter Jacoby Brissett, veteran backup Brian Hoyer and the project in Chad Kelly. With that room, quarterback has become the biggest need for the Colts this offseason.

But that doesn’t necessarily mean Ballard will pull the trigger on a quarterback this offseason. It is highly unlikely he goes with a veteran in free agency. The more likely route is grabbing a prospect in the 2020 NFL draft.

While drafting a quarterback like Jordan Love or Justin Herbert would give the Colts a much more positive outlook for the future, there is just as much of a chance Ballard sticks with Brissett and adds weapons around him.

That is undeniably the biggest decision Ballard has to make.
