Show Notes
Zaire Franklin, a veteran linebacker and team captain for the Indianapolis Colts, was traded to the Green Bay Packers for defensive tackle Colby Wooden. Franklin, a seventh-round draft pick, started 82 games and made 738 tackles, including a league-leading 173 in 2024. He expressed gratitude to Colts fans and praised GM Chris Ballard. Despite his contributions, Franklins play declined in 2025, leading to his trade. The move benefits both teams, providing Franklin a new opportunity and strengthening the Colts defense.
