The Indianapolis Colts had interest in free agent wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling, but he is now expected to sign with the Kansas City Chiefs, first reported by Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
After trading for quarterback Matt Ryan, the Colts are in the market to add some weaponry to the offense in order to help ease the transition for the 36-year-old quarterback.
Valdes-Scantling was one of those options but now he heads to the Chiefs after they traded away Tyreek Hill on Wednesday.
The #Chiefs are signing former #Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to a three-year, $30 million deal with $18 million in the first two years and incentives to reach a maximum of $36 million, his agents @NSAFootball tell @RapSheet and me. đź’°đź’°

The options are thinning for the Colts in free agency but there are still potential targets like Julio Jones, A.J. Green and Odell Beckham Jr., to name a few, as complements to Michael Pittman.
