Throughout the offseason, one free-agent wide receiver was linked to the Indianapolis Colts more than any other. The name Julio Jones was often followed up by the potential fit he would have if he joined the roster.
Though Jones eventually signed a one-year deal with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this week, general manager Chris Ballard confirmed they didn’t reach out to Jones’ camp about a potential deal.
“I don’t usually talk about players but we have not had any discussions about Julio (Jones),” Ballard said Tuesday. “I know there are reports out there, but those reports are wrong.”
