"The Colts have signed free-agent linebacker Germaine Pratt two days after the veteran was surprisingly released by the Las Vegas Raiders. Pratt signed a one-year contract with the Raiders during the offseason and was just four games in when he was left inactive in last Sunday's loss to the Colts while not traveling with the club to Indianapolis."
"The signing reunites Pratt with Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo, who coached him during his time with the Cincinnati Bengals. Asked what Pratt will bring, Colts coach Shane Steichen said, "Veteran experience. [He's] been in the system. So, obviously Germain's familiar with what we do defensively. From what I've heard, very smart player, physical football player.""
Germaine Pratt signed with the Indianapolis Colts two days after being released by the Las Vegas Raiders. Pratt had signed a one-year contract with the Raiders in the offseason and was only four games into that deal when he was inactive in the loss to Indianapolis and did not travel with the team. The move reunites Pratt with defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo, who coached him with the Cincinnati Bengals. Pratt brings veteran experience, familiarity with the Colts defensive system, intelligence and physical play. The Colts had been unable to settle on a second linebacker to pair with Zaire Franklin; Joe Bachie was placed on injured reserve Wednesday.
