Colts Sign CB Darryl Morris, Place CB Frankie Williams On NFI List

The Indianapolis Colts announced Wednesday morning that they’ve signed CB Darryl Morris to a contract and placed CB Frankie Williams on the non-football injury list.

Morris, 26, wound up signing on with the 49ers as an undrafted free agent out of Texas State back in 2013. He was on and off of their practice squad before he was waived at the start of the 2014 season and later claimed by the Texans.

Morris was in line to be a restricted free agent, but the Texans elected to not tender him an offer, which allowed him to sign on with the Jets back in March. Morris was unfortunate cut loose coming out of the preseason before signing on with the Colts.

Indianapolis just cut Morris loose a month ago.

In 2016, Morris has appeared in six games for the Colts and recorded 16 tackles, no interceptions, and a pass defense.

Williams, 23, wound up signing a three-year, $1.62 million contract with the Colts as an undrafted free agent out of Purdue back in May. He was unfortunately among their final roster cuts coming out of the preseason before later signing to their practice squad.

Williams has been on and off of the Colts’ active roster this year.

In 2016, Williams appeared in three games and recorded one tackle and no interceptions.
