Former Coastal Carolina wide receiver Matt Hazel is getting a second opportunity with the Indianapolis Colts, who signed the free agent Monday for the second time this month.
Hazel was claimed off waivers by Indianapolis on Sept. 3, a day after being cut by the Washington Redskins, and played three snaps in the team’s season-opening 46-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, recording his first career catch for 1 yard.
The Colts cut Hazel last week in order to promote linebacker Darnell Sankey from their practice squad. Sankey saw action in the Colts’ 13-10 loss to Arizona but was cut Monday so the team could again sign Hazel.
