Colts might have brought back Roy Hall

I have no life. I admit it. And since I have no life, all I do all day is hit F5 on the Colts roster page, hoping for some kind of change to the list. Today, the Colts updated their page, adding names like J.D. Skolnitsky and removing names like Raheem Brock.
However, one name that was seemingly re-added was wide receiver Roy Hall, assigned #81.
I'll try and get confirmation on this, but the page is marked as being updated March 9, 2010, and players like Tim Jennings and T.J. Rushing are off the list. So, if Hall is there, it likely is not a mistake.
Hall was placed on the injured-waived list in mid-August of last year. The general feeling at the time was his career with the Colts was over. Perhaps that feeling was inaccurate.
Interesting side note: Recent Colts signing Andy Alleman is not listed on this new roster page.

Shouldn't he have been on Injured Reserve anyway?
I thought that when a player is placed on the Injured-Waived list, there is a set time period for how long he can be picked up by another team. If no team adds him in that time and he doesn’t appeal his injured status, then he lands on the team’s injured reserve and his contract is kept. Correct?
That's what PFT wrote
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2009/08/13/colts-waive-roy-hall-sign-walter-mendenhall/
I confess, I thought he was waived, period, and I thought we discussed that on Phil B’s blog. But I can’t find the mention.

So we don't have Lilja, Sorgi, Brock or Jackson.
But we DO have Roy Hall. Fabulous. Just fabulous.

No, wait.
Just kidding – I figured everyone here knows I’m in smartass mode 99% of the time anyhow. ;-)

Well,
i guess you can add me to the list, now that i know you have a smart-ass mode.
Handy, that! I should look into getting one.
;)

I don't think ptb
has anything OTHER than a smart-ass mode. This is why we all love her so.
How can you not love a team that does this?
aww... that's sweet!
and yeah; she does kinda grow on ya! :)

We don’t have Jennings! How will the players rest without his cushion around 56th St?

I think that after the success of Collie and Garcon last year
Polian has rethought the whole untested young WR concept.
Plug ’em in, get 7 TDs and 700 yards and keep on going.
Plus, Hall is TALL, Like those SD WRs, man, he’s like his own basketball team. And we all know how far that got them in the playoffs…. oh, wait, um, never mind.
I hate Joe Namath. That's how long I've been a Colts fan.
I don't think so I think he was just not taken off or something. I know he wasn't taken off of the roster on the CBS site ever.

Manning bashing occuring on BRB as we speak
Oh well I guess you have to come up with something to bash the guy that owns your team every year. It must be hard to come up with discussion points about the postseason when your team has never been there.

There's a few swipes at BBS in there, too.

Sadly, I responded. I posted Manning’s and Brady’s QB ratings. The blog is a cesspool pf assholes and I just made the mistake of stirring the asshole pot. Ready the banhammer, shake.

They've never been to the playoffs

I never get tired of that photo
But I have one question: I know Freeney is not as tall as, say, Vincent Jackson (who is like a basketball player, man….), but Rosenchoppa is about seven feet off the ground there.
How the hell does that happen? When has a QB’s feet being more than two feet off the ground ever been a good thing? I can imagine maybe a goal line plunge where he goes over the top instead of under the pile… but seven feet up there?
Now I have to go find a clip to enjoy it all over again.
I hate Joe Namath. That's how long I've been a Colts fan.
Wow.

It doesn't matter at all
Even if he’s on the team he’ll get injured and/or cut.

Yay!
Why of why do I fool myself every year into thinking Roy Hall will turn into the dominant WR/TE tweener I thought he’d be after watching his pro day? I still have a small spot in my heart for the guy, and I have no idea why…

I hope he turns into something.

God help the Colts WR's ankles
God knows when this genius will attempt another tackle to a fellow teammate after a TD celebration!

not to the colts wr
in his final OSU game against Florida…Ted Ginn Jr ran a kickoff to the house and Roy Hall decided to bring down/tackle Ginn from the waist down and injured his ankle and was out for the game
Most buckeye fans dislike Hall for what he did…

We needed Roy in the SuperBowl to tackle Colston.
An injured ankle there could have also changed that game. Oh wait Freeney’s ankle did just that.

Roy Hall has his own open thread?
He’s a bigger deal than I thought….

That's a little much.

They gave him
Oh Hanks number ehh?

At least he's not Stokley's old number this time.

We need the ST help
Hall may never see the field as a WR, but we could sure use the help on ST.

I think they have some issues
in their data entry department
How can you not love a team that does this?
You should volunteer.

Missing King
and Guise also.
You should come over to myspace and twitter my yahoo until I google all over your facebook.
By my count
62 guys are on the roster(57 listed). Do the league expects final4 teams to sign a bunch of rookie FAs and bums to the off-season roster??? The Colts have to add around 25 guys for OTAs and stuff…..They should be allowed to have more freedom.
The don't "have to" have that many guys on the roster

honestly as much as I hate the impact to the Colts
I love the "poison pill’-esque impact of the cap expiration. It has been paramount that the NFL maintain parity (at least in my mind) and these new rules have done that… for this year. It remains the requirement of the owners, managers and coaches to do what they can with what they have… I trust Polian can still navigate the waters under these new constraints.
I agree with gizzardfanny that there is no requirement to completely fill the roster, but I would think it behooves the team to get as many viable options as they can (key word of course being “viable”).
How can you not love a team that does this?
they can sign cut players, untendered RFAs and undrafted free agents
that’s a big portion of the camp fodder anyway.

Especially the undrafted guys.
We commonly get like 10 names from that alone.
