General manager Chris Ballard focused on rebuilding the Colts’ secondary in his first draft as an NFL GM last offseason by taking Malik Hooker in the first round, Quincy Wilson in the second round, and another cornerback Nate Hairston in the fifth round.
Wilson was in the cornerback in the rotation for the first two games of the season before hurting his knee and missing a couple games due to that injury. However, Wilson’s knee was healed a couple of weeks later, but he was still a healthy scratch until he was activated in the Colts’ 12th game of the season against the Jaguars.
