The Colts have signed former Saints DT Taylor Stallworth, according to Stallworth’s agent.
My client Taylor Stallworth (DT, South Carolina) is signing with the Indianapolis Colts despite interest from 7 other teams. Played with the New Orleans Saints the last 2 seasons and was a valuable part of their d-line rotation which has gotten very deep and talented.

Stallworth had visited with Indianapolis a couple of days ago and elected to sign with the Colts ahead of seven other teams, per his agent.
Stallworth, 24, wound up going undrafted out of South Carolina back in May of 2018. He later agreed to a three-year, $1.71 million contract with the Saints and managed to make the team as a rookie.
Stallworth made the team again in 2019 but was waived early in December. He signed to New Orleans’ practice squad and was promoted back to the active roster later in the year.
The Saints waived Stallworth last week.
For his career, Stallworth has appeared in 18 games and recorded 16 tackles, one sack and a fumble recovery for the Saints.
