Indianapolis is coping with four key injuries at the position, including veteran slot cornerback Kenny Moore II ; Jaylon Jones, a 17-game starter last season; and 2023 second-round pick JuJu Brents. Rookie Justin Walley, a third-round pick who was projected to be the No. 3 cornerback, tore his ACL two weeks ago and will miss the season.

The Indianapolis Colts are signing free agent cornerback Xavien Howard, according to his representatives.
