Who are the most disappointing Colts of 2019?

These Colts failed to live up to expectations.

Now that the 2019 Indianapolis Colts’ season is coming to a close it’s time to evaluate the roster. It’s time to take a look at some guys who played above expectations and those who were a major disappointment this season.

With the Colts’ season spiraling out of control, losing six of their last seven, it’s only appropriate to look at the players who failed to live up to the expectations during the 2019 campaign.

Here are the three most disappointing Colts from this season:

IndyStar

TE Eric Ebron

In 2018, Ebron had his best season in terms of catches, yards and touchdowns in what was his first season in Indianapolis. Before the stunning retirement of Andrew Luck, Ebron said he wanted to break the record for most touchdowns by a tight end in NFL history, which was set by Rob Gronkowski in 2011 with 17.

After the retirement of Luck, it was all-but-certain that Ebron’s numbers would take a hit with Jacoby Brissett taking over as the QB, but nobody expected a fall as hard as Ebron had.

In just 11 games, Ebron had 31 catches (on 51 targets), 375 yards and three touchdowns. All would be second-lowest in his career and after having ankle surgery after the Houston Texans game in Week 12, Ebron was forced to shut it down for the rest of the season.

Coming into a contract year, Ebron needed to not duplicate what he did in 2018 but just be consistent, and he wasn’t. What Ebron did this season was a major disappointment, especially due to the fact that the Colts lacked playmaking from their pass-catchers.
