Colts decline Malik Hooker’s fifth-year option

The Colts are declining the fifth-year option on safety Malik Hooker’s contract for the 2021 season, meaning he will be a free agent following the upcoming campaign.
A first-round pick (No. 15 overall) in the 2017 NFL Draft, Hooker was the first draft selection for general manager Chris Ballard.
It has been an up and down road for the Ohio State product as he has dealt with injuries seemingly every season.
In 34 career games (33 starts), Hooker has recorded seven interceptions, 11 passes defended and one tackle for loss
