Colts release NFL veteran before he even plays a game
Colts release wide receiver before he plays a single snap.
The Indianapolis Colts have released veteran wide receiver Darius Slayton after he spent less than a month with the team, never playing a single game. The team announced the decision on Friday, citing the need to regroup following a challenging start to the season. Slayton, 29, joined the Colts on September 21 to provide experience and depth to their receiving corps.
However, he did not appear in any regular-season games due to learning the offensive system and dealing with injuries. The move comes as Indianapolis looks to strengthen their roster before an important divisional matchup against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday.
