The Indianapolis Colts reportedly will meet with Georgia cornerback Kelee Ringo at the latter’s pro day Wednesday, per Ryan Fowler of The Draft Network.
It was reported earlier this offseason that the Colts met formally with Ringo at the NFL combine, also by Fowler, so there is certainly a level of interest from general manager Chris Ballard and the scouting department.
Though it’s not a top-30 visit, which sometimes signifies high interest, a formal meeting at the combine and another meeting at the pro day is a strong signal.
Georgia CB Kelee Ringo has Top 30 visits scheduled with the Pittsburgh Steelers and Las Vegas Raiders, per source.
He's also scheduled to meet with the Colts, Seahawks, and Broncos prior to Georgia's Pro Day tomorrow.

Ringo will be an intriguing prospect for the Colts considering his size and athleticism. He measured in at 6-foot-1 and 207 pounds while posting a 4.36 in the 40-yard dash.
He doesn’t quite meet the arm length threshold that Chris Ballard typically looks at with cornerback positions, but the Colts may be intrigued enough to look past that.
Ringo will certainly be intriguing to the Colts given his size and athleticism. He’s a boundary cornerback who plays extremely physical and could thrive as a zone defender in Gus Bradley’s scheme. He’s also known for his run support, which is a huge plus in Ballard’s eyes.
As it currently stands, the Colts will see the return of Stephon Gilmore, Kenny Moore II and Isaiah Rodgers at the cornerback position. However, there’s a decent chance Moore is traded this offseason as a salary-cap move while both Gilmore and Rodgers are going into the final years of their contracts.
Ringo most likely would be a target with the Colts’ pick in the second round at No. 35 overall.
