The 2024 season is right around the corner, and the Indianapolis Colts<\/a> still need to address the safety position. Signing Quandre Diggs makes a ton of sense. The three-time Pro Bowl safety is one of the top free agents left on the market.<\/p>\n

To clear salary cap space, the Seattle Seahawks released<\/a> Diggs back in March. Surprisingly, no team has swooped in and signed him yet.<\/p>\n

This offseason, the Colts focused on re-signing free agents. The team retained guys like Michael Pittman Jr.<\/a>, Kenny Moore, and Grover Stewart. They also handed extensions to DeForest Buckner and Zaire Frankin. Besides Joe Flacco and Raekwon Davis, Indianapolis didn’t make many additions when it came to players outside the organization.<\/p>\n

That needs to change. The Colts need to go out and sign Diggs, who can help improve their inexperienced secondary.<\/p>\n

Quandre Diggs\u2019 Career<\/h3>\n

Quandre Diggs played four seasons of college ball with the Texas Longhorns. He won Big 12 Defensive Freshman of the Year and was named to the Second-team All-Big 12 twice.<\/p>\n

The Detroit Lions<\/a> selected Diggs in the sixth round (200th overall) of the 2015 NFL Draft. He would play cornerback during his first two years before switching to safety. The Texas native stayed in Detroit until he was traded to the Seattle Seahawks<\/a> in 2019.<\/sup><\/p>\n

Diggs played five seasons in Seattle. During that span, he made the Pro Bowl three times: 2020, 2021, and 2022. He was voted a team captain in 2022 and 2023. Diggs recorded 18 interceptions and 32 pass deflections while starting 72 games as a Seahawk.<\/p>\n
