Colts claim Tevin Mitchel

[countryroads316]

He will go to their injured reserve damn

Whoa. Guess that's what happens when SM and co is scouting your picks...

 

[skinsdad62]

oh well you win some you lose some

Colts are obviously a bit more secure in the idea of who will make their 53, thus they can afford to burn a 90 man roster spot on a guy who they will likely just IR later on.

My concern is, why not list him as PUP and then IR him later??

Boo. Scot shines in the later rounds so there's nothing positive about this. At least we signed galette

If you Training Camp PUP, can you still bring in the 2 CB guys we did?

I thought you could, but maybe that rule is why we had to waive him injured.

Saw an exchange about this by Keim today but didn't fully understand it. Made it sound like it was uncommon for other teams to pick up injury waivers. And was a normal move to pick up another player who was uninjured.

Its very unusual for teams to pick up injured guys. As I said, the colts must not be too worried about burning an active roster spot through the preseason in order to put him on IR. Basically means they ride with 89 from now until first cuts
