Colts promote Pharaoh Brown, re-sign Germaine Pratt to practice squad
Indianapolis promoted veteran tight end Pharaoh Brown while bringing linebacker Germaine Pratt back to the organization.
The Indianapolis Colts have made two roster moves on January 4, 2026. First, they signed veteran tight end Pharaoh Brown to the 53-man roster, providing the team with another experienced option at the position alongside Tyler Warren, Mo Alie-Cox and Drew Ogletree. Brown has spent the entire 2026 season on the Colts' practice squad after rejoining the organization during training camp, and has 94 NFL games experience with 56 starts, 74 receptions for 752 yards and three touchdowns.
Second, the team re-signed linebacker Germaine Pratt to the practice squad. Pratt had a strong season last year, recording 101 tackles, five tackles for loss, eight passes defended, an interception, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries. The addition of Pratt gives the Colts another experienced linebacker at a position that has been inconsistent and poor through the first five weeks.
