Colts evaluate defense after poor performance against Ravens
Summary

The Indianapolis Colts are evaluating all aspects of their defense following a disappointing outing against the Baltimore Ravens as they prepare for Week 2. Defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo noted that both communication and performance issues were significant factors in the Colts' inability to stop the Ravens, who totaled 506 yards. In particular, safety Cam Bynum's role may be reassessed due to these communication breakdowns, while nickel cornerback Justin Walley, who struggled in his debut, remains supported by Anarumo. The Colts will face the Kansas City Chiefs and quarterback Patrick Mahomes next.
