Colts Worked Out Six DBs Including Marcus Gilchrist

According to Ian Rapoport, the Colts are hosting free-agent S Marcus Gilchrist for a workout on Tuesday. 

Safety is a need for Indianapolis with the news that Malik Hooker will be out several weeks with a knee injury. 

Indianapolis also worked out Kentrell Brice, Deiondre Hall, A.J. Hendy, Shalom Luani and Lafayette Pitts, per Aaron Wilson.

Gilchrist, 30, is a former second-round pick of the Chargers back in 2011. After four years San Diego, Gilchrist signed a four-year, $22 million contract with $8.5 million guaranteed in March of 2015 with the Jets.

Gilchrist was set to make a base salary of $6 million for the 2017 season when the Jets elected to designate him as a post-June 1 release in 2017. It took until August for him to sign a one-year contract with the Texans.

Gilchrist signed a one-year, $4 million deal with the Raiders for the 2018 season. 

In 2018, Gilchrist appeared in all 16 games for the Raiders and recorded 58 tackles, three interceptions and six pass defenses. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 82 safety out of 90 qualifying players.

We have him featured in our Top 50 Available Free Agents list.
