What happened: Indianapolis Colts cornerback Sauce Gardner says he is 24 years old, not 25 as commonly listed, according to a story from Stephen Holder. The discrepancy concerns his publicly recorded age rather than any on-field matter.

Why it matters: A year of age can shift how a player's prime window and long-term value are framed, particularly for a cornerback Indianapolis is building its secondary around. Younger-than-listed status is a small but real factor in how the Colts weigh his future role heading into the 2026 season.

What to watch: Watch for the Colts and league directories to update Gardner's listed age, and for how he factors into Indianapolis' secondary plans through 2026 offseason work.
