Former Jaguars unsung defender joining forces with dreaded AFC South foe

Just recently, the Indianapolis Colts lost cornerback Jaylon Jones to a hamstring injury. It didn't take them long to bring in reinforcements to make up for his absence. One of the players they signed used to suit up for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Mike Chappell of FOX59/CBS4 Sports reports that Indy signed cornerbacks Tre Herndon and Duke Shelley. In corresponding moves, cornerback David Long Jr. was placed on Injured Reserve, and tight end Albert Okwuegbunam Jr. was released.

Tre Herndon signed with the Jags after going undrafted in 2018. Although he mostly contributed on special teams as a rookie, he worked his way up the depth chart and ended up making 14 starts in his sophomore campaign.
