The Indianapolis Colts are previewing their 90-man roster ahead of training camp, focusing on linebacker West Weeks. Signed as an undrafted free agent after the 2026 NFL draft, Weeks has shown promise with 66 tackles and three sacks during his first starting season at LSU. Colts assistant GM Ed Dodds praised Weeks' potential to impact special teams, underscoring the player's combinations of size and speed. However, as the Colts previously kept only four linebackers on the initial roster, Weeks may face stiff competition from teammates CJ Allen, Bryce Boettcher, Akeem Davis-Gaither, and Jaylon Carlies for a spot on the 53-man roster.
