Former Badger Hunter Wohler was sent to the IR before even making his regular-season debut. In the second preseason game, Wohler went out with a foot injury, and the team doctors deemed it was season-ending. In a wave of signings with a hope to fill some of their depth after the injury, the Colts added another ex-Badger in Jake Chaney.
Chaney has been hanging around the program lately and has even been part of the coaching staff in fall camp. However, he'd been keeping an eye out for NFL opportunities. He was able to work out for the Colts this last week, and the flurry of moves by the Colts led to his signing.
