Jalen Travis Steps Into Starting Role | Indianapolis Colts News
Description
The Colts’ offensive line shone last season, ranking second in the league and keeping Daniel Jones remarkably sack-free despite major injuries. But with veteran Braden Smith gone, second-year tackle Jalen Travis is now the focal point — tasked with stepping into a full-time starting role at right tackle. A fourth-round pick who flashed promise with a solid PFF grade last year, Travis now faces the pressure of carrying the load. Head coach Shane Steichen is backing him, calling him a “big human” with “huge upside,” while the coaching staff’s preparation will be key. With Jones back under center, Travis and the line must deliver to keep the QB protected and the offense humming in 2026.
