Colts Beef Up OL with Former Saints Starter
The Indianapolis Colts have been busy trying to fortify the depth on their team. On Thursday morning they announced they signed former New Orleans Saints offensive lineman Lewis Kidd to the practice squad.
In a corresponding move, the Colts placed offensive lineman Jack Anderson on the practice squad injured list.
It was a short run for Campbell who had just signed Tuesday with two other players in a trio of moves.
Kidd (6'6/311) turns just 26-years old on Friday. He was originally signed as an undrafted free agent out of Montana State.
He saw action in 13 games with the Saints last season including one start. Pro Football Focus gave Kidd a 29.6 grade with the Saints last year.
More on Kidd from the Colts' official release:
Kidd participated in the New Orleans Saints' 2023 offseason program and training camp. As a rookie in 2022, he played in 13 games (one start) for the Saints after originally signing with the team as an undrafted free agent on May 16, 2022. Collegiately at Montana State (2016-21), Kidd saw action in 54 games, including 48 consecutive starts at tackle and guard. He registered the third-most starts in school history. Kidd earned First Team All-Big Sky honors (2021) and Second Team All-Big Sky recognition (2019). -- Indianapolis Colts
