The Colts met with a safety who has an intriguing size-speed combination ahead of the East-West Shrine Bowl.
According to Bleacher Report’s Ryan Fowler, the Indianapolis Colts were among the NFL teams that met with TCU safety Mark Perry recently during East-West Shrine Bowl week in Frisco, Texas:
Some good stuff on Day 1 from TCU S Mark Perry. Verified 6’0”, 213, versatile defender with good eyes/instincts.
He’s met individually with the Giants, Cowboys, Bears, Panthers, Texans and Colts, among others, early on at @ShrineBowl, per source. pic.twitter.com/FxYdBDJ0Jw

During 2023, the senior safety recorded 58 tackles (44 solo), 3 tackles for loss, 4 passes defensed, and a forced fumble during 12 starts. He played his first three collegiate years at the University of Colorado before transferring to TCU for two seasons.
He was 2022 First-Team Academic All-Big 12 for the Horned Frogs.
At a listed 6’0”, 215 pounds, the former collegiate track and field standout has some serious speed which makes him an intriguing size-speed combination at safety.
Of course, the Colts face some uncertainty at safety this early offseason, as Julian Blackmon is set to become a free agent following a breakout 2023 campaign of sorts, while Indianapolis may still look to overhaul this positional room—even if it does re-sign him.
