Undoubtedly, it is feasible. Irsay, however, has never shied away from speaking his thoughts or adopting a novel strategy, as seen by the hiring of Jeff Saturday as an interim coach.

The Heisman Trophy winner from 2021 had a successful two-year stint as Alabama&#8217;s starter, compiling 8,200 passing yards, 79 passing touchdowns, and only 12 interceptions. The only question about him is how his frail, 6-0, 194-pound physique will fare in the NFL.<\/p>\n<p>The second problem with Young is unique to the Colts. With the No. 4 overall pick, they might not be able to get him. The Texans are anticipated to choose a quarterback with the No. 2 pick, and Young has regularly been mentioned in mock draughts in connection with them. That also includes the most recent from Vinnie Iyer of Sporting News.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Colts owner Jim Irsay says Indy hired Shane Steichen knowing it has &quot;to find a young quarterback to develop,&quot; praises draft prospect Bryce Young: &quot;The Alabama guy doesn&#39;t look bad, I&#39;ll tell ya&quot;<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/914Ij1GdD4\">https:\/\/t.co\/914Ij1GdD4<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/2raoumXu6B\">pic.twitter.com\/2raoumXu6B<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Around The NFL (@AroundTheNFL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AroundTheNFL\/status\/1625579925012094976?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 14, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Young may still be available, giving the Colts hope.
