Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 27 Oct, 18:02 · Archive

The Indianapolis Colts have traded All-Pro guard Quenton Nelson to the Seattle Seahawks for a third-round and fifth-round draft pick, according to a person with knowledge of the deal who spoke to The Associated Press on Tuesday. The deal had not been announced by either team at the time of reporting.

Nelson is an eight-time Pro Bowler who was selected sixth overall in 2018. He made All-Pro teams from 2018 to 2020 and shared All-Pro honours with linebacker Darius Leonard as a rookie. Nelson can become a free agent in March.

The trade is the second major move for Indianapolis in two weeks. The Colts, with a record of 2-5, fired general manager Chris Ballard last week following a home loss to Tennessee. Assistant general manager Ed Dodds has taken over for now. The Colts visit Jacksonville on Sunday while the Seahawks, at 4-3, host Chicago on Monday night.
