35 best remaining free agents for Colts on final legal tampering day
The final day of the legal tampering period commences Wednesday, and the Indianapolis Colts have not been shy about adding depth and talent to the roster.
They made a big splash Monday night by agreeing to sign former Los Angeles Rams kicker Matt Gay to a four-year deal. They also brought back linebacker E.J. Speed on a two-year deal while fellow linebacker Bobby Okereke reached agreement on a big contract with the New York Giants.
Meanwhile, they agreed to trade cornerback Stephon Gilmore to the Dallas Cowboys for a fifth-round pick, and they agreed to a three-year deal with free-agent defensive end Samson Ebukam on Tuesday. They also are planning to release quarterback Matt Ryan.
The start of free agency officially begins Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. ET, which means we’ll likely see a flurry of announcements, making these moves official. As always, nothing is set in stone until the team announces it as so.
