On Wednesday, the Colts placed cornerback Xavien Howard on the reserve/retired list and signed safety Trey Washington (https://www.colts.com/team/players-roster/trey-washington/) to the 53-man roster from the practice squad. Howard joined the Colts as a free agent in August and started the first four games of the 2025 season. He totaled 11 tackles with one fumble recovery with the Colts. The 32-year-old Howard spent the previous eight years of his career (2015-2023) with the Miami Dolphins, where he was a four-time Pro Bowler and first-team AP All-Pro in 2020.
Washington initially joined the Colts as an undrafted free agent this spring. This move reflects broader discussions about player development and roster flexibility within the league.
