For the second year in a row, the Colts are looking to add a quarterback who previously played for head coach Frank Reich in Philadelphia.
Last year it was Carson Wentz who did not introduce himself. This year it’s Nick Falls, who is currently in talks with the Colts and could reach a deal by next week, according to Zach Kiefer of TheAthletic.com.
Reich said this week that the Colts will have an interest in adding a veteran quarterback, and of the available quarterbacks, Foles will make the most sense. Foles was the MVP of the Super Bowl LII as Eagles’ starting quarterback, and Reich was the offensive coordinator.
Thales has spent the last two years with the Bears, and has also spent time with the Jaguars, Chiefs and Rams in addition to his two separate stays with the Eagles.
If the Colts sign him, Falls will likely become the No. 2 quarterback in the depth chart behind Matt Ryan. Indianapolis also has Sam Elinger, James Morgan and Jack Cohan in the quarterback’s room, but would prefer a more proven backup if Ryan falls.
