Here were a few of the guys they brought in for a workout. Also, depending on who they select, they may have Rigo start handling kickoffs again.

My understanding is Michael Badgley, who kicked for the Colts in 2021, is a possibility to replace Spencer Shrader.

Dustin Hopkins, Matt Ammendola among the others who were at today's workout.

Brian Mason . . . added that punter Rigoberto Sanchez could potentially handle kickoffs moving forward. TBD on that.

Colts are signing Badgley.

The Colts are signing K Michael Badgley to the active roster, sources tell me and Mike Garafolo.

After Spencer Shrader's season-ending knee injury, Indy moves forward with Badgley, who kicked for Indy in 2021 and is healthy after missing last season because of injury.

Could have done worse.

I guess they didn’t like Trujillo, who they had in preseason.

He was cut with an injury settlement, can they resign him the same season?

The answer will depend based on the injury settlement terms.

If a player and team agree to an injury settlement, a player is released and compensated for the estimated amount of time in which the injury would keep the player from being able to work. At that point, the player is free to sign with any team but may not sign back with the original team until the length of time from the injury settlement has concluded plus an additional 3 weeks.

So, for example, if the Colts gave him a month of compensation, then they couldn't sign him yet since not enough time would have elapsed.

Probably the best we could get. I expect 50+ yards is out of the question. Anything over 40 will be iffy.

Thanks for this clarification as I also wonder why we did not bring him back in. I just learned something new with that.

I also saw Atlanta was kicking the tires on him and he appeared healthy.
