twitter. com/Wx5DMH2RH4 — Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) March 17, 2026 Taylor-Britt, a former second-round pick in 2022, spent his first four seasons with the Bengals. In his four seasons with Cincinnati, the 26-year-old cornerback appeared in 38 games and recorded 151 solo tackles and 7 interceptions.
The move for Taylor-Britt makes sense for the Colts for a number of reasons. For starters, Indianapolis’ cornerback room dealt with a number of injuries last season — specifically to starters Sauce Gardner and Charvarius ‘Mooney’ Ward. Ward appeared in only 10 games during the 2025 season after suffering three separate concussions — two of which landed the star cornerback on injured reserve.
