Colts Beat: TE Eric Ebron turning heads

Colts tight end Eric Ebron was a draft bust in Detroit, but he might be ready to make his mark in Indianapolis.

That’s the word after the Colts wrapped up their offseason workouts, and coach Frank Reich said he loved what he saw of Ebron.

“He’s really smart,” Reich said of Ebron, via the Indianapolis Star. “I knew that because we did our homework before he got here. We knew he was a smart player. But he’s like really a highly intelligent football player. And that’s really good because you want to use a guy with the versatility that he has and move him around and call all kinds of things with him. That helps. And he’s an explosive athlete.”

Fantasy Impact: 

Reich comes from the Eagles, who loved to use the tight end last year, especially with Zach Ertz and Trey Burton. With a successful return of QB Andrew Luck, Ebron, the former 10th-overall draft pick (2014) may turn fantasy heads at some point this year.
