The Indianapolis Colts released wide receiver Breshad Perriman on Monday, first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Perriman was likely a longshot to make the roster. He was in the competition for one of the final wide receiver spots, but he didn’t make much of a splash during the preseason games.
Colts are releasing veteran receiver Breshad Perriman, per source.

It will be interesting to see how the Colts go about structuring their wide receiver room with Ashton Dulin out for the season with a torn ACL. They typically keep six wide receivers, but they may opt for only five on the initial roster.
The eight-year veteran will hit free agency in search for another team.
The Colts have until Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. ET to finalize their initial 53-man roster. You can stay up to date with the latest moves via our tracker.
