The Colts announced that they have signed linebacker Najee Goode. Goode spent the last five years with the Eagles.
Goode has 64 career appearances to his credit, not counting four postseason games, but only four starts. He also projects to serve in a reserve role for the Colts.
Goode saw the most snaps of his career in 2017 as he registered 19 tackles (12 solo) and three tackles for loss. He also started in the NFC Championship Game for the eventual world champs.
The Colts saw linebackers Jonathan Bostic and Barkevous Mingo leave in free agency, so Goode will help to fill one of those holes. John Simon and Antonio Morrison figure to start at two of the three LB spots in the Colts’ 4-3 scheme and they’re expected to look at outside linebackers in this month’s draft.
John Simon is not a fit for this scheme.
I’d be shocked if Morrison is still on the roster in the fall. He’s not very good, and he is even worse in this scheme.
