Colts try out 4 kickers, host CB Kevin Toliver on visit

The Indianapolis Colts held a tryout for four free-agent kickers and hosted cornerback Kevin Toliver for a visit on Monday, per the league’s transaction wire.

With kicker Rodrigo Blankenship on the injured reserve list, the Colts signed Michael Badgley to the practice squad and elevated him for the Week 6 game against the Houston Texans.

However, it seems Chris Ballard is still doing his due diligence at the position. The four kickers they had try out were Ramiz Ahmed, Chris Blewitt, Austin Jones and Sam Sloman.

It isn’t clear if this is just them keeping an eye on the market and who’s available or if a move is coming. Badgley converted his only field-goal attempt from 41 yards and all four of his extra-point attempts in Week 6.

With Rock Ya-Sin re-aggravating an ankle injury on Sunday, it seems the Colts are keeping tabs on the cornerback position as well. Toliver has spent time with the Chicago Bears (2018-2019) and Denver Broncos (2020). In 29 career games, he has four passes defended.
