The Indianapolis Colts made major roster moves Thursday, signing six of their eight 2026 draft picks and adding a hefty 12 undrafted free agents to the fold. This aggressive push to lock in young talent signals the team's commitment to building depth as they gear up for the upcoming season.

Headlining the signings is second-round selection CJ Allen, the Colts' first pick in this year's draft. Allen, a dynamic linebacker, is expected to bring immediate energy to the defense. Joining him are third-rounder A.J. Haulcy, a versatile defensive back, along with George Gumbs Jr., Center Grove product Caden Curry, Seth McGowan, and Deion Burks. Only fourth-round picks Jalen Farmer and Bryce Boettcher remain unsigned, but fans can expect those deals to finalize soon.

But the Colts didn't stop there. The team also announced the signing of 12 undrafted free agents, a mix of promising prospects looking to make their mark. The list includes defensive tackle Cam Ball, safety Austin Brown, linebacker Tahj Chambers, wide receivers Sahmir Hagans, E.J. Horton Jr., and Raylen Sharpe, defensive end Mitchell Melton, running backs Lincoln Pare and Jordon Vaughn, tackle Nolan Rucci, center Geno VanDeMark, and linebacker West Weeks. These players will be eager to prove themselves in training camp and compete for roster spots.

In a surprising move earlier Thursday, the Colts released veteran cornerback Kenny Moore II after nine seasons with the team. Moore, a fan favorite and key contributor in the secondary, had reportedly been seeking a trade since April, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. The team also parted ways with safety Nasir Adderley, signaling a shift in their defensive backfield strategy.

With a blend of fresh draft picks and hungry undrafted talent, the Colts are laying the groundwork for a competitive season. Whether you're stocking up on new gear for game day or just following the roster shake-ups, this is a team to watch as training camp approaches.
