As the Indianapolis Colts prepare for Week 3 of the regular season, they have announced a number of practice squad movements.

Following DeForest Buckner’s placement on injured reserve, the Colts signed

In addition to those two roster changes, the Colts cut defensive tackle McTelvin Agim and cornerback Ameer Speed off their practice squad.

Speed was a key special teams player for the Colts in the second half of the season. Agim spent time with the Colts in 2023 until Houston signed him to the practice squad in January ahead of their playoff game against Baltimore. Agim then spent training camp with the Texans before being released and signing with the Colts’ practice squad.

With three practice squad spots open, the team signed defensive tackle Adam Gotsis, cornerback Gregory Junior, and defensive end Titus Leo, who was cut last week.

Gotsis is a veteran NFL player, having featured in 121 games, 54 of which he started, since being drafted in the second round in 2016. He most recently spent four seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he played 427 snaps in 2023 and recorded 20 pressures and 25 tackles.

Jacksonville selected Junior in the sixth round in 2022. He appeared in 10 games over his first two NFL seasons, with 112 snaps on defense and 110 on special teams, including 105 last season. Junior has defended from both the slot and the boundary.

Finally, Leo is a familiar face as the Colts’ sixth-round pick in 2023. His first season ended in August due to a season-ending injury from the previous year. Leo attended the Colts’ 2024 training camp but was waived on cutdown day before being signed to the practice squad.

Following these movements, the Colts’ 53-man roster and practice squad have reached full capacity.
