Colts Promote Laquon Treadwell for Sunday Clash with Steelers

The Indianapolis Colts have made significant roster changes ahead of their upcoming game against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. A notable addition is wide receiver Laquon Treadwell, who has been promoted from the practice squad to bolster the team’s offense.

Laquon Treadwell’s Redemption

Laquon Treadwell, once regarded as a draft disappointment, was selected 23rd overall by the Minnesota Vikings in the 2016 NFL Draft. Despite early struggles, Treadwell has persevered, finding a role in the league primarily on special teams.

Colts Roster Adjustments

In addition to Treadwell’s promotion, the Colts have made several other roster moves:

  • Defensive end Durell Nchami has also been elevated from the practice squad.
  • Cornerback Jaylon Jones has been activated from injured reserve.
  • Cornerback Cameron Mitchell has been signed to the 53-man roster from the practice squad.
  • Linebacker Chad Muma has been waived.
  • Safety Trey Washington has been waived.

These changes reflect the Colts’ strategy to enhance their team dynamics as they prepare to face the Steelers. With Treadwell joining the lineup, the Colts hope to improve their offensive capabilities for the crucial matchup.
