I anticipate he will be brought up to Active Roster by Sunday.  He has good hands and decent route running.  He had the biggest play in Camp and thought he might squeeze in the 53.  I like hearing both QBs are confident in him.  Stay tuned.

[Peterk2011]

They just signed him to the practice squad. So, maybe later, but not this week.

The answer to Andrew Luck’s prayers!

I am actually curious as to why they haven't given Fountain a look yet.  If I remember correctly, he had a very solid preseason.

[LJpalmbeacher2]

He will be the gamechanger this team has been waiting for..

They signed him to Practice Squad so he can come in and prep without making moves.  It would Most likely be game day decision which I think is highly possible.

[LockeDown]

I shipped a case of Stickum to our WR core.  He should be good going forward

Then you remembered wrong. He made no noise until the last game in my opinion, against 3rd and 4th stringers. Every game before that, he simply failed to gain much separation or dropped a few passes here and there. This is from what I recall.... Maybe someone else can chime in on his preseason performance?

Agreed. Here’s a write up on his preseason.

He was just waived and Krishown Hogan was signed

At 6'3 220+ lbs, I think Hogan was brought in just to beat up the other receivers when they drop a pass.

YAY another camp body the best thing ever yay

With Grant out, the Colts currently have 4 available receivers that could be ACTIVE on Sunday: T.Y. Hilton, Chester Rogers, Zach Pascal and newly signed Dontrelle Inman. Given Hilton could be on a pitch count on Sunday, the Colts will be a little tight at the receiver position. We will see if this situation might incline the Colts to call up one of their practice squad wideouts: Reece Fountain, Steve Ishmael and Krishawn Hogan (who was signed to the practice squad on Friday morning). 
 

For now though, it sounds like the Colts are sticking with those 4 wideouts on the 53-man roster: “We’ve got to make it be enough,” Reich said after Friday’s practice. “In a perfect world, you would like to have one more because Dontrelle just got in. We can alter our personnel groups because of that and we will. That’s fairly easy to do and we got athletic tight ends so we can use them like that as well. We can mix it up and take some of the stress off the receivers by doing that.”

Just sitting here waiting for Chester

I actually think rodgers has been our best receiver in TYs absence. Granted, thats not saying much. Hes had some drops, but at least he makes some plays too. Thats not including ebron, i would say has been our best option out of all skill positions on offense.

I think hunt has answered those questions.   Have you watched him play?
