Colts Release Ambry Thomas After Failed Physical
The former 49ers cornerback, waived earlier this week, remains unsigned as questions persist about his recovery from a forearm injury.
- Ambry Thomas, a former San Francisco 49ers cornerback, failed a physical with the Indianapolis Colts after being claimed off waivers on Wednesday.
- The Colts cited concerns that Thomas' broken forearm, sustained during the preseason, has not fully healed despite being cleared by the 49ers over a month ago.
- Thomas' agent, Drew Rosenhaus, maintains that his client is healthy and predicts he will pass his next physical with another team.
- Thomas, a 2021 third-round draft pick, had shown promise early in his career but struggled to secure a consistent role with the 49ers in recent seasons.
- The failed physical leaves Thomas back on the waiver wire as he seeks another opportunity in the NFL.
