The Colts drafted JT Tuimoloau in the second round because he fits Chris Ballard's vision for edge rushers at a position he always invests in.

He put together a career-high campaign as a senior, notching 12.5 sacks in the team's National Championship run. Tuimoloau may not have the highest ceiling in this class, but he is an outstanding run defender with a high motor and great power at the point of attack.

Indianapolis selected Ohio State defensive end JT Tuimoloa with the No. 45 pick in the second round on Friday. He now joins Penn State tight end Tyler Warren in the Colts' 2025 class.
