The Colts made a big pickup before the NFL trade deadline, landing two-time All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner from the Jets. Now they have turned a suspect secondary into a strength.
Gardner was pricey, as he cost Indianapolis two first-round picks and wide receiver Adonai Mitchell. While that’s an expensive deal, the 25-year-old is one of the NFL’s best cornerbacks when he’s at his best. Even better for Indy, he signed a four-year, $120.4 million contract extension with the Jets before the season.
