The Facts: The Colts haven’t announced what they intend to do with Ryan, and GM Chris Ballard wasn’t saying anythging more on Wednesday. “We’ll work through it with Shane [Steichen]. We’ll work through it,” Ballard said. “We’re just getting the staff settled. We’ll start working through things next week.”

Diehards Line: Ryan remains on the roster and his $35.2 million remaining salary will become guaranteed March 17. The Colts can save $17.2 million by cutting him before then. He has $12 million guaranteed that he wouldn’t get if he retired before March 17. The veteran QB said at the end of the season that he feels he still has “a lot of good football” left, though it remains to be seen whether he would get that chance. Ryan, 38, separated his throwing shoulder and was benched twice in 2022 as the Colts went 4-12-1. The Colts are expected to draft a quarterback in the first round of this year's draft.
