Colts sign TE JJ Galbreath to bolster tight end depth

Summary

The Colts have signed tight end JJ Galbreath to their 90-man roster as Tyler Warren is expected to miss time due to a groin injury. Galbreath, who went undrafted out of South Dakota in 2025, was previously on the Pittsburgh Steelers' practice squad before being waived two weeks ago. The move comes as the Colts look to strengthen their tight end position in light of Warren's recovery timeline. Head coach Shane Steichen indicated Warren will be sidelined for about a week.
