The Indianapolis Colts waived four players following the 2023 NFL draft, the team announced Tuesday.
While these won’t be the only four to get the boot, the Colts have to begin making room for the large class of undrafted rookie free agents coming in this week.
The four players waived included running back Darrynton Evans, running back Aaron Shampklin, wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson and CB David Vereen.
All four of these players likely were competing for the final spots in their respective positional rooms, but all four of them saw the Colts bring in some major competition during the draft.
Shampklin and Evans would have had a difficult time competing with sixth-round pick Evan Hull while the Colts drafted wide receiver Josh Downs and three cornerbacks including second-rounder Julius Brents.
