Eric Ebron won’t be back with the Colts in 2020. When asked about the tight end, GM Chris Ballard told reporters that the team will “probably move on” from Ebron.
Ebron, a former first-round pick, struggled early on in his career with the Lions. But, when he joined the Colts in 2018, things were looking up. The tight end had fewer drops en route to a 14-touchdown season with 66 catches for 750 yards and a whopping 13 TDs.
This year, without quarterback Andrew Luck, Ebron was far less productive. The 26-year-old (27 in April) had just 31 grabs for 375 yards and three scores before landing on IR in late November with an ankle injury.
Then, the two sides clashed. The Colts said they were not aware of Ebron having any sort of serious ankle issue. Ebron fired back and issued a statement saying that the team was aware of his severe pain since the beginning of the season.
The Colts, apparently, aren’t interested in mending fences. Ebron will look for work elsewhere when he hits the open market in March.
Hello Eric,
Welcome to New England.
Maybe if Brady’s not back. This guy would drive Tom nuts with the amount of passes he drops.
Come to KC
Why
He’d never start over Kelce
Because they would like some backup TEs and they also run two TE sets.
Steelers need a tight end
Chicago.
Steelers should check this out
Chicago for sure
