Colts Sign WR Greg Ward and DE Derek Rivers
The Indianapolis Colts have made a significant move to bolster their roster by signing wide receiver Greg Ward and
defensive end Derek Rivers. The additions come as the team looks to strengthen its depth in key positions ahead of
the upcoming season.
Greg Ward, known for his versatility and reliable hands, brings experience to the Colts’ receiving corps. Ward, who
previously played for the Philadelphia Eagles, has proven himself as a dependable target in the slot. His ability to
make clutch catches and contribute on special teams adds valuable depth to the Colts’ offense. With injuries and
roster changes affecting the wide receiver position, Ward’s signing provides the Colts with a seasoned option who
can step in and contribute immediately.
Derek Rivers, a defensive end with a strong track record as a pass rusher, joins the Colts after stints with the New
England Patriots and Houston Texans. Rivers, a former third-round pick, has shown flashes of potential when
healthy. His addition to the Colts’ defensive line rotation could provide the team with an additional edge in getting
after opposing quarterbacks. Rivers’ ability to disrupt the backfield will be a key asset as the Colts aim to improve
their pass rush.
The Colts’ front office has been actively seeking to address areas of need, and these signings reflect a continued effort
to build a well-rounded and competitive roster. Both Ward and Rivers are expected to compete for significant
playing time as the team gears up for the regular season.
Fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see how these new additions integrate into the team and what
impact they will have on the Colts’ performance. As the preseason unfolds, Ward and Rivers will have the
opportunity to prove their value and carve out roles within the team.
