Kidd spent most of the season on the practice squad when he was signed in September but was released from the practice squad in December.

Tutsie signed with the Colts this offseason as an undrafted rookie free agent in June and was active in training camp before suffering an injury that led to him being waived-injured in August. He was waived with an injury settlement the following week.
