Colts elevate TE Erik Swoope to 53-man roster for Week 3, waive CB Lenzy Pipkins

Today the Indianapolis Colts made a move that we expected given the current state of the injury report for the team. What we didn’t know, is what corresponding moves might be made in order to make room for him on the active 53-man roster.

Tight end Erik Swoope was elevated to the active roster as the Colts are shorthanded at the position heading into their Week 3 matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles. It came as a bit of surprise recently when the Colts waived the fifth-year pass catcher, but the team was able to get him back on the practice squad.
