The Indianapolis Colts are signing free-agent wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie, giving them a slot option to help replace the absence of Parris Campbell.
McKenzie should give the Colts a solid depth option in the slot receiver role while Michael Pittman Jr. and Alec Pierce lead the room on the boundary. The Colts also have Ashton Dulin returning after re-signing with the Colts this offseason.

The Colts have signed wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie. Different kind of body than Indy's normally had under Ballard. 5-8, speedy, shifty.
Averaged a shade under 30 catches per year in four full seasons in Buffalo. https://t.co/RLamXbiNv5

Ideally, the Colts can pick up a WR3 through free agency/the draft and have Isaiah McKenzie slide in as depth behind the top three.
Explosive player that will likely be the day 1 punt returner
