Colts add former Raven Ty'Son Williams to crowded RB competition

INDIANAPOLIS — The Colts added another young running back to a crowded competition for roster spots on Tuesday, signing former Ravens running back Ty’Son Williams.

Williams started three games for a depleted Baltimore backfield last season, picked up 185 yards and averaged 5.3 yards per carry, but the Ravens chose to cut him loose this spring, initially placing an exclusive rights free agent tender on the young back, then rescinding it.

An ERFA tender gives a player the league-minimum salary and prohibits the player from signing with any other team.

Indianapolis released undrafted center Alex Mollette to make room, a corresponding move that underscores how deep the Colts have made the competition for the No.
