The Indianapolis Colts continue to see change this NFL offseason − particularly on defense − which makes the 2026 NFL Draft an intriguing event full of cinematic drama for a team without a first-round pick.
Here's what we know about a Colts mock draft, Kenny Moore II trade rumors, the recent Nasir Adderley signing, Colts kicker battle, potential NFL schedules release date, and more.
The 2026 NFL Draft will take place April 23-25 in Pittsburgh.
The latest version of a Colts mock draft from Nathan Brown has Colts GM Chris Ballard wheeling and dealing in an attempt to secure another second-round pick for the 2026 NFL Draft, which means trading back from No. 47. But who are the two coveted prospects that Brown has in mind?
The Colts and Kenny Moore II mutually agreed to seek a trade for the 9-year veteran cornerback, as the team's focus is on getting younger defensively. Should a trade partner emerge for Moore, the Colts could potentially save more than $7 million in cap space, and face a little over $6 million in dead cap. Ultimately, Moore would be the sixth lost starter of the Colts 2025 season if a trade were to be completed.
The Colts' most recent free-agent signing was former Chargers safety Nasir Adderley, despite the player's choice to walk away from the NFL in 2022 to focus on his health.
The 2019 second-round pick ends his NFL hiatus at age 28, and will compete for the starting spot vacated by Nick Cross, who left for the Washington Commanders.
The Colts kicker for 2026 remains a mystery, mostly due to talent at the position. Blake Grupe and Spencer Shrader both return to the Colts after injuries affected both kickers' seasons last year.
How does Colts general manager Chris Ballard feel: "I think we’ve got two of the best 32.”
Here are the Colts NFL opponents in 2026:
The NFL has yet to confirm a date for the 2026 NFL schedule release. However, ESPN NFL reporter Adam Schefter recently speculated the new NFL schedule could arrive between Tuesday, May 12 and Thursday, May 14.
