Colts add defensive tackle to practice squad following Week 11 win

The Indianapolis Colts announced that they’ve signed a defensive tackle to the practice squad. Here’s what you need to know.

The Indianapolis Colts announced on Monday that they have signed defensive tackle Trysten Hill to the practice squad.

After the team signed linebacker Liam Anderson from the practice squad to the 53-man roster on Saturday, they had an opening, so no corresponding cut had to be made.

Hill is a former second-round pick in the 2019 NFL draft by the Dallas Cowboys out of Central Florida. In addition to playing with Dallas, Hill has also spent time with Arizona, Cleveland, and with New England.

Over his career, Hill has played in 34 games, including five starts. In total, he has recorded 30 pressures and two sacks, according to Pro Football Reference. He’s also made 40 total tackles.

Hill has played 45 career special teams snaps as well, primarily on the field goal blocking unit.

Most recently, Hill appeared in two games with the Patriots last season, playing 14 defensive snaps.

The addition of Hill to the practice squad adds to the Colts’ defensive line depth, after they released Adam Gotsis from the 53-man roster over the week in order to make room for Anderson.

Along with Hill, Titus Leo is the other defensive lineman on the Colts’ practice squad.
