The Indianapolis Colts have announced their eight team captains for the 2024 season, with five offensive players and three defensive players leading the team. Six of the captains are returning from last year, while two new additions include Jonathan Taylor and Michael Pittman Jr. Players like DeForest Buckner and Zaire Franklin are entering their fifth season as captains, while Kenny Moore II is a captain for the second season.
Quarterback Anthony Richardson, who is heading into his second season, will also serve as a captain. The Colts chose to have two offensive line captains for the second consecutive year, with Quenton Nelson and Ryan Kelly leading the way. The team recently finalized their roster with 53 players and are set to face the Houston Texans on September 8 at Lucas Oil Stadium.
Pittman Jr. expressed his gratitude for being chosen as a captain, calling it a “huge honor.” The team is looking forward to a successful season, with Richardson aiming to complete a full season after a shoulder injury last year.
