The Indianapolis Colts simply couldn’t ask for a better way to start their 2022 NFL season. While it will begin things on the road, this is an opportunity for the team to establish some momentum early. Matt Ryan shouldn’t have too much trouble against Houston’s defense and this could be a huge day for Jonathan Taylor. Related: 2022 NFL power rankings Let’s take a quick look at the Indianapolis Colts roster for the 2022 season. Matt Ryan replaces Carson Wentz, taking over as the Indianapolis Colts starting quarterback this season. Ryan is an upgrade, providing far more stability for Frank Reich at the most important position. The Colts’ offensive line also projects to be better in 2022. Indianapolis will be counting on a big leap from Michael Pittman Jr. this year, viewing him as the No.1. receiver. Meanwhile, rookie Alex Pierce should play a prominent role. Of course, this offense will be carried by MVP candidate Jonathan Taylor. Defensively, while the Colts traded Rock Ya-Sin this offseason this unit should be improved. Stephon Gilmore joins the secondary and Yannick Ngakoue bolters a pass rush that needed help on the edge. Both players should help this be a top-12 defense in 2022, but the departure of defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus is a blow.
