The Colts waived quarterback Brad Kaaya, according to a team announcement. He’ll now be free to sign with any team of his choosing.
Kaaya, 24 in September, was once viewed as the potential first overall pick in the 2017 draft, but ended up falling to the sixth round after an inconsistent final season at Miami. Since being selected by the Lions, Kaaya has bounced around the NFL via waiver claims and free agent deals, spending time with the Panthers, the Lions (again), and — most recently — the Colts. He’s yet to appear in an NFL game.
Last year, the Colts waived/injured Kaaya prior to the start of the season. When he went unclaimed, he reverted back to the Colts’ IR.
For now, the Colts will focus on a QB depth chart headlined by Andrew Luck and trade candidate Jacoby Brissett.
I’d like to see Kaaya get a chance as a number 1 backup. Maybe Carolina or behind Darnold or Winston
The AAF developmental league is the perfect place for guys like this.
The Dolphins should give the kid a shot! Immediate starter since Tannehill is on his way out.
Playing for a team intent on tanking should do great things for his confidence….lol.
At least it’s playing time; he wouldn’t get the chance anywhere else
Redskins should look at trade for Brissett or sign Kaaya ,mid to late pick for Brissett or cap friendly for either and have insurance and competition for Colt / Johnson.Hope Colt returns healthy fo competition!
no way colts trade him for a late pick. too valuable as a backup
Redskins could give both a look to go with Colt / Johnson competition for decent pick and cap friendly.Don’t know if Colt will be ready,hope so . Need help everywhere!
Bye Felicia
I know what you did there
Pretty funny
I actually really liked him when he was at Miami. I definitely thought he should have stayed for his senior year (even at the time), but hindsight is 20/20.
