Earlier this offseason, the colts made the surprising decision to go from the veteran Matt Gay in favor of Shrader. But as GM Chris Ballard described, this decision was much less gay and more what Shrader presented last season with several teams.
“He leaves us and plays and performs in two different teams – you know how difficult it is?” Ballard said. “It is difficult now, to go in two different teams and to have to play – it is not easy. You work with a totally different operation at the same time – different Vivaneau and different holder – and to succeed and succeed. It had more to do with Spencer than he did, really, with Matt.”
Shrader ended the 2024 season, his year recruited, making the nine additional points attempts and the five attempts at the field.

However, Shrader is still an inexperienced player as a whole. Among the above attempts he had last season, none of them came from more than 50 meters.
There are many examples in the NFL of young kickers crossing a steep learning curve. Of course, this has no impact on how Shrader will happen, but until the opposite is shown, there will be a certain uncertainty about how this season will take place.
With Shrader on the kicker list, the colts have also signed the free agent not drafted by temple Maddux Trujillo. Perhaps a competition between the two could take place, but it is the work of shrader to – or if – it materializes.
