The Indianapolis Colts made several moves on Tuesday to get the roster down to 85 players as per league rules.
The team announced a few different moves. First, they waived tight end Graham Adomitis and running back Darius Anderson. Then, they placed defensive end Damontre Moore on the injured reserve list and waived-injured wide receiver Quartney Davis and cornerback Nick Nelson.
If Davis and Nelson clear waivers, they will revert back to the team’s injured reserve list.
The league is trimming down rosters a bit differently in 2021. Tuesday’s deadline brings the roster down to 85 players. Then, the Tuesday following the preseason game against the Minnesota Vikings, another five players will be cut, bringing the roster down to 80 players. The Tuesday following the final preseason game, the roster will be trimmed down to 53 players.
