Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Ali-Cox will become a free agent this upcoming offseason.
So what will his next contract look like, and will the Colts re-sign him?
Mo Alli-Cox Contract Prediction
According to Spotrac , Alli-Cox is expected to receive a one-year free agent contract worth $2.2 million.

Spotrac used Demetrius Harris, Jeff Swaim, and Pharoah Brown to compare in terms of player age, contract status, and statistics to determine what a deal for Alie Cox might be.
Will the Colts re-sign Moali Cox?
This is one of those decisions that could happen in free agency.
On one hand, the Colts have Tyler Warren leading the way at the position, and I think Drew Ogletree returns as a restricted free agent on a low-cost deal. He can fill a tackle-specific role like Alli Cox.
If things go this way, there will still be a need for depth, but perhaps the Colts will choose to fill that need by bringing in a younger, higher-potential player in the draft. Allie Cox is 32 years old.

That being said, retaining Alee Cox provides a very stable presence for the offense. We know that Alli-Cox will fill this role and that he will fill it reliably.
Considering this is a one-year deal that won’t break the bank, my early prediction is that he’ll return.
