Colts name Ed Dodds interim GM after firing Chris Ballard

The Indianapolis Colts have appointed Ed Dodds as their interim general manager following the dismissal of Chris Ballard. This change comes after a disappointing home loss to the Tennessee Titans, leaving the Colts with a 2-4 record. Dodds, who has been with the Colts since 2017, previously spent nearly a decade with the Seattle Seahawks, where he worked closely with current Seahawks GM John Schneider. With the Colts looking to restructure, there is speculation that Dodds’ connections could facilitate trades that may involve key players like running back Jonathan Taylor, but also star guard Quenton Nelson, among other moves.
