Colts sign RB Darrynton Evans

Colts add a former third-round pick to the backfield.

The Indianapolis Colts signed free-agent running back Darrynton Evans, the team announced Friday.

A third-round pick with the Tennessee Titans in the 2020 NFL draft out of Appalachian State, Evan spent the first two seasons of his career in Nashville working behind Derrick Henry.

He was waived by the Titans during the 2022 offseason and was claimed by the Chicago Bears. He appeared in six games total across two seasons with the Titans and six games during the 2022 season with the Bears.

In 12 career games, Evans has 30 carries for 125 rushing yards along with five receptions for 71 yards and a receiving touchdown.

Evans will be joining a running back room currently consisting of Jonathan Taylor, Zack Moss, Deon Jackson, Jake Funk and Aaron Shampklin.
