The Indianapolis Colts signed offensive tackle Brandon Hitner to a reserve/futures contract, the team announced Tuesday.
From the release by the team:
Hitner, 6-6, 300 pounds, was originally signed by the Los Angeles Rams as an undrafted free agent on April 29, 2019. He was waived by the Rams prior to the start of the regular season. Hitner then spent time on the practice squads of the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills. He competed in 28 games during his collegiate career at Villanova and was the recipient of the CAA Commissioner’s Academic Award in 2017.
Hitner joins the list of now 15 players to sign futures contracts with the Colts. The other 14 all signed at one time.
The Colts can sign as many players to futures contracts as they want until the 90-man roster has hit its limit.
