The Colts bring back sleeper cornerback Pierre Desir on a one year roughly two million dollar deal locking up a solid performer that went down week 13 with a torn pectoral for one more year.
According to our writer @sears_58 Desir’s contract is worth about 1 year $2m #NFLFreeAgency

Bringing back Desir gives experience to the cornerback position as every other corner on the team is 25 years old or younger while Desir is 27. Pierre is an Indy personality type which is why he’s on the team, he’s laid back, easy going, a hard worker, and a great performer, also doesn’t go around picking fights with players. If you want to know him a little better and see how he’s healing check out the interview I had with him.
Pierre is a model player and person in the locker room and everyone is happy to have a veteran back with the Colts. Pierre totaled 32 tackles and one interception which was his career’s first. In his career, he has had 81 combined tackles, 18 assists, and the interception that I had just mentioned. Going back over it, great move by Ballard keeping an older veteran to help teach the rookies and other young corners on the team and that will be on the team for years to come.
