[HtownColt]

The Indianapolis Colts today signed cornerback Sheldon Price to the active roster from the practice squad and waived tackle Andrew McDonald from the active roster.

[CR91]

that was fast. later mcdonald. 

[PeterBowman]

is there a db hurt?

[HtownColt]

is there a db hurt?

Hugh Thornton might be back at practice this week, that is my guess

[COLTS449]

Cool, I'm interested to see what Price can do, but he probably wont see much time other than special teams.

Most likely inactive

[PrincetonTiger]

Very interesting

Andrew Mc didn't stay long

[hoosierhawk]

Heard Butler was dinged.

[ProblChld32]

Like it, ive wanted to see Price get some more action for some time now.

[Tracy Denton]

Maybe the plan is to take Moncrief off ST ??? (for less injury risk)

[Bluefire4]

Hopefully he has improved from the preseason so he can take advantage of his opportunity if needed.

.

[GOCOLTS_ROLLTIDE]

Have Moncrief take ty role need price for st duty

[Gavin]

probably just means a Corner is dinged up this late in the season and they need a body to give him some rest

[VaAllDay757]

Smh price is not what we need

[Nesjan3]

price was on the active 53 last year and wasn't greatif I remember corrcectly, maybe he has made progress, maybe thornton is ready to come back, maybe one of our corners is dinged up and needs rest who knows, I am happy for price though give it all you got kid.

[Nesjan3]

Smh price is not what we need

so your the new coach?

[jskinnz]

Smh price is not what we need

 

So what is needed?

 

Better question - of their needs, who is out there in week 16 that will fill those needs?

[jskinnz]

Guessing this means that either Reitz or Nixon will be back healthy again this week.

Good answer Gavin. That's pretty much how I interpret the Price addition too. I do like how GM Grigs is always tweaking our roster & making it stronger.

Speaking of Moncrief, I was so ticked off when his TD got taken off the board due to a penalty. It was 1 of the coolest plays I had ever seen & I was crushed when it didn't count vs the Texans. 

 

After a few color metaphors got spewed like a machine gun, I finally calmed down. LOL!

I was pretty ticked too. It was some great concentration. Damn Holding call...

 

Although Moncrief made a pretty good tackle on special teams pinning them on their 10 or something. Very nice move.

[MTC]

Good for Sheldon.

[lollygagger8]

Too bad Purifoy was such a knucklehead....

 

but here's your chance to shine Price! 

[krunk]

I've been feeling like we miss Purifoy a little bit on special teams a little bit.  Seems like we've been letting up some longer runs than usual the past couple of game.  Not real big, but a little longer than usual.

Well, we can't keep knuckleheads on the team. We've lost talent due to knuckleheadism 

 

Rogers

Brazill

Purifoy

That S who thought he was above the law who's name I can't think of right now 

 

Etc Etc 

[krunk]

Maybe Sheldon Price can surprise us perhaps

[Buck Showalter]

Smh price is not what we need

Boyett ???

[VaAllDay757]

so your the new coach?

I don't need to be a coach to see when a player is trash....why not give dewey mcdonald a little more time on the field if the secondary is kinda hurt....price is not good at all

[VaAllDay757]

So what is needed?

a cornerback better than price it's bad enough we have gordy out there

[TKnight24]

Boyett ???

 

There it is

[jskinnz]

a cornerback better than price it's bad enough we have gordy out there

 

Yeah.  I am sure they passed on a Revis quality corner to sign Price because those guys are just hanging around in December.

 

Sadly that is the answer I expected when I asked the question.

Who's talking about revis? I mentioned in another post that dewey mcdonald can get some PT I would rather see him than price

[ColtsLegacy]

Dewey McDonald plays a different position, Dr. Rocket Surgeon. And we've literally never seen McDonald play CB and he's likely taken few if any snap there yet you'd rather give him snaps. Plus, this signing is at most a special teams signing with Davis, Toler, Butler, Gordy, and Brown ahead of him.

Long story short, put a cork in it.

[akcolt]

Gordy played a descent game Sunday. Now we have guys wanting to give a S reps at CB Really?

What talent have we lost? Not one of those players mentioned is even on a PS. Yeah ton of talent gone there

[Nesjan3]

you should pursue an nfl scouting career your clearly fit for the job

What does that mean? Like he can't do more than be on the special team....he plays safety he's still considered a defensive back when the safety plays one on one isn't the same like when davis or toler play one on one? I swear ya'll one track minded

[VaAllDay757]

If you really believe a safety isn't supposed to cover a wr or te when the play is called for him to do so you're really dumb just because he's listed as a safety doesn't mean he can't line up as a corner some of y'all need to read up on some football knowledge

You are not helping your cause with this commentary.

This guy clearly knows what he's talking about...
