Former New England Patriots wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson has reached his next team without reaching free agency.
The Indianapolis Colts claimed the 26-year-old off waivers on Thursday, as ESPN’s Field Yates reported.
Undrafted in 2020 out of Southeast Missouri State, where program records were set with 219 receptions for 3,540 yards and 33 touchdowns, Wilkerson spent his rookie training camp with the Tennessee Titans before signing to New England’s practice squad at its formation. He remained with the organization to appear in four games as an elevation through two regular seasons.
