INDIANAPOLIS — After months and months of waiting, Reece Fountain is finally getting his shot.

The Indianapolis Colts' rookie wide receiver was activated from the practice squad to the 53-man roster on Friday and will have a chance to make his NFL debut on Sunday when the Colts visit Houston.

Fountain, picked in the fifth round of last spring's draft, battled injuries throughout training camp and was released during final cuts in late August.
