Just a few short hours after news broke that the Green Bay Packers will be losing one key special teams player in free agency, another has signed elsewhere. Hot on the heels of the news of linebacker Eric Wilson signing with the Minnesota Vikings, cornerback Corey Ballentine is reportedly agreeing to a deal to join the Indianapolis Colts.
The Colts formally announced Ballentine’s signing.
After being a sixth-round draft pick by the New York Giants in 2019 and bouncing around to four different teams during the 2021 and early 2022 seasons, Ballentine signed to the Packers’ practice squad midway through 2022 and has been a member of the roster ever since.
