PFF picks one Indianapolis Colts' undrafted free agent to watch this summer
Who is one undrafted free agent for the Indianapolis Colts to keep your eyes on this summer? Ben Cooper of Pro Football Focus recently highlighted one UDFA from each of the 32 teams to watch for, and when it came to the Colts, he selected Ole Miss safety Trey Washington. Advertisement "We'll highlight Washington," wrote Cooper, "whose 90.2 PFF tackling grade and 87.2 PFF run-defense grade in 2024 both ranked in the top 15 among FBS safeties. Indianapolis lacks proven depth behind Nick Cross and Cam Bynum, opening the door for Washington to earn a role." Washington played just shy of 2,200 defensive snaps over four seasons, which includes being a starter the last two years. He has experience playing closer to the line of scrimmage, but the bulk of his snaps came as a free safety. This past season, Washington was an extremely reliable tackler, making 64 of his 68 attempts, and that resulted in him being a top run defender by PFF's grading system as well. In coverage, Washington had his best season, allowing a completion rate of 59%, just 8.4 yards per catch, and held quarterbacks to a passer rating of 80.2. Washington also had four pass breakups and one interception. Advertisement One of the most important aspects when it comes to making a team as a UDFA is that there has to be room on the roster. When it comes to the safety position for the Colts, there very much is. While Cam Bynum and Nick Cross are the starters at safety, behind them on the depth chart are Rodney Thomas, Daniel Scott, Marcel Dabo, and potentially Hunter Wohler, if he's not listed at linebacker.
