The Indianapolis Colts announced on Tuesday that the team has promoted cornerback Frankie Williams from their practice squad and waived tight end Chase Coffman in a corresponding roster move.
With starting cornerback Vontae Davis currently in the league’s concussion protocol, the Colts are adding an additional player at a potentially otherwise short-handed position.
Right now, it appears as though Davis’ availability is cloudy at best with the Colts facing a potent Green Packers passing attack led by superstar quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
It’s not Williams’ first stint on the Colts active roster, as the undrafted rookie cornerback out of Purdue was previously promoted during Week 6 against the Houston Texans–only to then be released and re-signed to the team’s practice squad shortly thereafter.
