Indianapolis Colts Expected to Part Ways with Donte Moncrief

Donte Moncrief had tantalizing talent when former general manager Ryan Grigson drafted him in the third round of the 2014 draft. Moncrief began his career with decent production for a third-round rookie with 444 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns in 2014.

He began to look like a true number two receiver with a breakout year in 2015 where he gained 733 yards receiving with 6 touchdowns. Those numbers were even more impressive considering Andrew Luck only played in 7 games, and he was catching passes from a 40-year-old Matt Hasselback for most of the year.

Injuries slowed him down in 2016, but he still looked like a dominant red zone receiver with 7 touchdowns in just 9 games.
