News: Head coach Chuck Pagano says Ballard enters training camp as Indy's top running back. "It's always nice to have a couple guys, a change of pace guy," Pagano told ESPN. "But certainly at the end of the year with Donnie [Donald Brown] hurt and the way Vick came on and the way he was running, he was getting the lion's share of the snaps. At this point, yeah, he's sitting there as the lead guy. But Donnie's in great shape and healthy and looks fantastic to this point in the offseason program." Impact: Ballard started the last 12 games last season after Brown missed time with knee and ankle injuries. It looks like Ballard will be the starter, with Brown as the change-of-pace and/or third-down back. The backfield picture could change and Delone Carter could also figure into the mix as a short-yardage specialist, but Pagano's comments seem to indicate Ballard will get the bulk of carries.(RotoWire, )
