Malik Jefferson - Pro Football Rumors

Colts Down To 53

August 31st, 2021 at 3:48pm CST by Zachary Links

The Colts have reached the 53-man limit. On Tuesday, Indy formally:

Waived

WR Tarik Black
LB Curtis Bolton
DT Andrew Brown
CB Anthony Chesley
DT Kameron Cline
S Shawn Davis
G Jake Eldrenkamp
TE Farrod Green
WR DeMichael Harris
CB Holton Hill
RB Deon Jackson
LB Malik Jefferson
LB Isaiah Kaufusi
RB Benny LeMay
OT Carter O’Donnell
WR Tyler Vaughns
TE Kahale Warring

Released

S Ibraheim Campbell
S Sean Davis
OT Will Holden
QB Brett Hundley
C Joey Hunt

Waived/Injured

TE Jordan Thomas
TE Andrew Vollert

Placed on Reserve/NFI

DE Dayo Odeyingbo

Hundley’s release signals that the Colts aren’t all that concernedabout Carson Wentz‘s foot, or his vaccination status. The move comes even after sixth-round rookie Sam Ehlinger suffered a knee injury that will sideline him for a good chunk of time. The real takeaway is that they’re comfortable with 2020 fourth-round pick Jacob Eason, — he’s now the only other healthy quarterback behind Wentz on the initial roster.
