The Indianapolis Colts had to make some tough decisions on Saturday, as the team trimmed their roster down from 80 players to a league mandated 53-man active roster.
While the Colts roster could still change a bit regarding a few spots—as NFL teams can make waivers claims that are awarded post-noon tomorrow, the far vast majority of their roster is here to stay.
Here’s what transpired:
Offense:
Quarterbacks:
- Philip Rivers
- Jacoby Brissett
- Jacob Eason
Recap:
Chad ‘Swag’ Kelly is the loser here, as the Colts opted to keep their big armed developmental rookie 4th round pick Jacob Eason over the 26 year old Kelly—who’s become a fan favorite with his prior strong preseason showings.
