Several important members of this Indianapolis Colts team will be entering the final year of thier current deals.
The level of change we see take place next offseason will be tied to how the team performs in 2026. Another missed postseason appearance could lead to sweeping changes from the front office to the coaching staff and on the roster.
Here are five key players set to be free agents in 2027.
Against both the run and the pass, Buckner has been a force in the middle of the Colts' defense since arriving to Indianapolis. Even in an injury-shortened 2025 season, Buckner ranked 24th among defensive tackles in pass rush win rate and 14th in PFF's run stop rate metric.
Stewart provides a high-end run-stuffing presence in the middle of the Colts' defense. With what Stewart is asked to do, he won't always fill the stat sheet, but his ability to generate push, eat up ******* e, and take on blocks helps stifle the opposing run game, while creating opportunities for others.
