Kindred, 25, was released by the Indianapolis Colts on Monday. He had one tackle in the Colts’ 21-18 preseason loss to the Cleveland Browns on Saturday.
Ironically, it was in Cleveland where Kindred began his NFL career. The TCU alum was chosen by the Browns in the fourth round (129th overall) of the 2016 draft.
