The Indianapolis Colts and Running Back Khalil Herbert agreed to a one-year deal Wednesday evening. He is coming off an underwhelming 2024 season with the Chicago Bears and Cincinnati Bengals. Herbert was acquired by the Bengals midway through the season. The veteran running back had 36 carries, 130 rushing yards, and 1 rushing touchdown. How will Herbert fare with the Indianapolis Colts in 2025?
Indianapolis Colts Offseason Outlook
The Colts are looking to rebound from a disappointing regular season. They missed the NFL Playoffs due to the play of second-year Quarterback Anthony Richardson. He has struggled to complete passes at a competent level in his NFL career. Indianapolis signed veteran Quarterback Daniel Jones earlier this week. He will create a quarterback competition with Richardson in 2025. Indianapolis also signed Safety Charvarius Ward this offseason.
Herbert joins a Colts running back room that includes Jonathan Taylor. Herbert will back up the star back in 2025. Indy’s offense also includes star Wide Receiver Michael Pittman Jr. The Colts will use the offseason program and preseason to determine their starting QB.
Final Thoughts
Herbert will provide depth for Indianapolis. It is a shrewd move. Taylor has not played a full season since 2021. Indianapolis has a solid roster, but they must find a long-term answer at the quarterback position. Herbert will look to contribute to the team’s offense in 2025.
