Ex-Packers RB Christine Michael signs deal with Colts

The Indianapolis Colts have signed free-agent running back Christine Michael, the team announced Thursday.

The Packers released Michael on May 1 after the team selected three running backs in the NFL draft.

Michael was claimed off waivers by the Packers last season and then re-signed in March on a one-year, $800,000 deal. However, only $20,000 of Michael's contract was guaranteed.

Michael, 26, played in nine games, including the playoffs, last season for the Packers. He rushed 31 times for 114 yards and one touchdown in six regular-season games and added 58 yards on 16 carries in the three playoff games combined.
