The Colts announced today that they have signed 3 time Pro Bowl defensive end Simeon Rice. Rice was released by the Denver Broncos on Friday.
The move was made because it looks like the injury sustained to Dwight Freeney's left foot in Sunday's loss to San Diego might be serious. Indianapolis GM Bill Polian stated during his Monday radio show that it looks like Freeney might miss a significant amount of time due to his injury.
The Colts entered Sunday's game against San Diego already missing 6 starters due to injury. That's not including starting DT Anthony McFarland and starting LB Rob Morris who were already lost for the season and placed on IR due to injuries. 3 more Indy starters (LT Charlie Johnson, RT Ryan Diem, and DE Dwight Freeney) left Sunday's game with injuries. That means that Indy has now lost a total of 11 starters due to injury.
There has been no update yet on the status of the injured Colts players for next week's game. It is believed that injured WR Marvin Harrison may have been able to play in the San Diego game but the Colts' coaching staff didn't want to risk his health.
