This preservation comes after Indianapolis James Bettner had signed as a coach of their Linebacker, who shows that the team is not afraid to change it with their defensive staff now Lou Anarumo is in charge.
Partridge came from the NCAA last year, where he spent seven years at the Pittsburgh Panthers as co-defensive coordinator and line coach.
Under Partridge, the defense line of the Colts only collected 36 bags with Edge Rusher Kwity Paye, who was ahead with eight. This contrasts their 9-8, 2023 campaign in which the team ended with 51.

Partridge gets another chance to use Game -Wrakers such as Defensive Tackle Deforest Buckner to dismiss the Quarterback more while exerting consistent pressure. Too often Indianapolis did not come to the other field general, and mixed with lax coverage, resulted in simple completion and rhythm to settle.
The largest player who looks two of Partridge under year is the 15th overall selection 2024, Laiatu Latu. Although it is hard to say that Latu bring the expectations of the under aids to the attention, Indy probably wants more from the former UCLA Bruin.
Latu ended his Rookie season with 32 tackles (five for loss), three forced junk and 4.0 bags. The Colts must play better from their defensive front in 2025 if they want to compete with the rest of a heavy AFC conference.
We will see what impact retention has party. Expect more information about the defensive staff that leak in the coming weeks in a critical outdoor season for the future of Indianapolis.
