INDIANAPOLIS — The Colts have plucked a local product off the New England practice squad, signing Lawrence Central High School product Cameron McGrone, a league source told IndyStar on Tuesday.
The timing of the move makes it more likely that McGrone stays in an Indianapolis uniform heading into the 2023 season. When an NFL team signs a player to the active roster off another team’s practice squad, it has to keep that player on the active roster for at least three games.
The Colts almost certainly have only three games remaining this season, placing McGrone on the 53-man roster at season’s end.
