Colts hire Chris Ballard as GM

The Indianapolis Colts introduced new GM Chris Ballard, today. He is the former Kansas City Chiefs director of player personnel. He has a great deal of experience in the scouting department and has been a highly regarded general manager candidate for the past few years.

Now he’s finally finding his shot with the Colts. It should be a secure situation for him to succeed. Ballard is definitely a more respectable option than Ryan Grigson, who supposedly didn’t get along with coach Chuck Pagano.

He likewise was a candidate for the Bucs GM job in 2014 before the Chiefs declined the interview. So possibly the biggest up and comer GM candidates
finally gets his chance.
