Moore Treated for Achilles; Colts Sign Mike Hilton

The Indianapolis Colts are treating slot corner Kenny Moore II for an Achilles issue — he did not practice and could miss a couple of weeks, with coaches cautious to avoid a full tear but not currently planning to place him on injured reserve. To bolster the nickel/slot depth, Indianapolis signed veteran cornerback Mike Hilton to the practice squad with an expected elevation for Week 4; Hilton reunites with defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo and may need a short ramp-up after being released by Miami. To make room on the roster, the Colts released wide receiver Tyler Scott. Mekhi Blackmon, acquired in a trade, is expected to take on increased slot responsibilities and will be backed up by Hilton. The team is also monitoring wide receiver Alec Pierce in concussion protocol while trainers and doctors guide Moore’s rehab.
