Colts Sign Linebacker Germaine Pratt After Raiders Release

The move reunites Pratt with defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo from his Bengals tenure.

Overview

  • Indianapolis finalized the deal on Wednesday, with head coach Shane Steichen confirming a corresponding 53-man roster move will follow.
  • Pratt previously played under Anarumo from 2019 to 2024 in Cincinnati, logging 616 tackles and seven interceptions in that span.
  • Las Vegas released Pratt on Monday after he did not travel to Indianapolis for Week 5 for non-injury reasons, a detail reported by NFL reporters and not explained by the team.
  • Reporting indicates the Raiders will take on roughly $3.75 million in dead money from the move.
  • The Raiders filled a roster spot by signing linebacker Jon Rhattigan to the active roster, while Pratt departs after four games with 25 tackles this season.
