“Hard Knocks,” which first aired with the Baltimore Ravens in 2001, has always given a behind-the-scenes look at an NFL franchise during training camp and the preseason. Now, viewers will get to see a team navigating the regular season for the first time in “Hard Knocks In Season: The Indianapolis Colts.”

Indy got off to a rough start to the 2021 campaign, losing four of their first five games. But thanks to a breakout season from second-year running back Jonathan Taylor and steady play from quarterback Carson Wentz, the Colts won four of their next five and currently find themselves right in the AFC playoff hunt at 5-5.
