Colts Tried Out Seven Including DE Junior Galette & RB Thomas Rawls

October 15, 2018

Adam Schefter reports that the Colts are working out a group of players on Monday that includes DE Junior Galette and RB Thomas Rawls.

According to Howard Balzer, the full list of tryouts for the Colts includes:

Galette, 30, originally signed on with the Saints as an undrafted free agent out of Stillman back in 2010. The Saints later signed him to a massive four-year extension only to cut him loose less than a year into the new contract.

Galette signed on with the Redskins in 2015 but suffered multiple season-ending injuries. He’s testing the open market as an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

In 2017, Galette appeared in all 16 games for the Redskins and recorded 20 tackles, three sacks, a forced fumble and two pass defenses. Pro Football Focus had him rated as the No. 31 edge rusher out of 106 qualifying players.

Rawls, 25, wound up signing on with the Seahawks as an undrafted free agent out of Central Michigan back in May of last year. He played out the final year of his three-year, $1.59 million rookie contract but was not tendered a restricted offer by the Seahawks.

Rawls signed on with the Jets this past March but was among their final roster cuts coming out of the preseason. The Bengals signed him to a contract a few weeks ago only to cut him loose earlier in the week.

In 2017, Rawls appeared in 12 games for the Seahawks and rushed for 157 yards on 58 carries (2.7 YPC) to go along with nine receptions for 94 yards receiving and no touchdowns.
