Colts LB Tyjuan Hagler said he is not upset about being a backup after re-signing with the team and is optimistic about this season. "There's a lot of confidence. I'm very confident going into this year, because I have a lot to prove and I definitely believe I'm going to prove it," Hagler said. When Hagler became a free agent he said he returned to the Colts despite receiving offers from other franchises, including Houston. The reason, he said, was he believed the Colts would be clear and honest about their expectations of him, even if their expectations weren't exactly what he wanted to hear. That was really the main thing, because obviously I had better offers on the table, but in the same sense, I wasn't guaranteed a starting role, Hagler said. I'm not guaranteed a starting role here, either, but in that same sense, I know where I stand here. Source: Colts.com
