INDIANAPOLIS – Have the Colts found themselves the next Jack Doyle or T.Y. McGill?
They hope so, in the form of two defensive backs.
On Sunday, the Colts used the waiver wire (the route they acquired Doyle in 2013 and McGill in 2015), to claim cornerback Neiko Thorpe and safety Matthias Farley.
To make room for the two defensive backs, the Colts released cornerback Jalil Brown and tight end Chase Coffman. Now, the roster is back to the mandated number of 53 players.
Thorpe, 6-1 and 200 pounds, has played in 37 career games after going undrafted out of Auburn back in 2012.
