Indianapolis Colts fans likely know by now that kicker Chase McLaughlin was claimed off waivers from the San Francisco 49ers on Wednesday as insurance for the ailing Adam Vinatieri.
The release of tight end Matt Lengel brings in a 23-year-old rookie, who had stints with four different teams before coming to Indianapolis.
His free agent signing with Buffalo Bills and practice squad time with the Minnesota Vikings enticed the Los Angeles Chargers to give him a shot. McLaughlin hit 6-of-9 field goals over four games during his first official NFL run.
