Colts worked out a pair of WRs on Thursday

The Indianapolis Colts worked out wide receivers J.J. Nelson and Ventell Bryant, per the league’s transaction wire on Thursday.

With T.Y. Hilton dealing with a groin injury and potentially missing the Week 9 game against the Baltimore Ravens, it seems the Colts are checking up on the market. Marcus Johnson also popped up on the injury report Thursday with a knee injury.

Nelson, 28, has appeared in 58 games throughout his career since joining the league as a fifth-round pick in the 2015 NFL draft with the Arizona Cardinals. He has recorded 85 receptions for 1,475 yards and 11 touchdowns throughout his career.

Bryant, 24, attended Temple where he would eventually sign with the Cincinnati Bengals as an undrafted rookie free agent following the 2019 NFL draft. He also spent time with the Dallas Cowboys where he played 12 games in 2019. He played mostly special teams while recording one catch for 15 yards.
