The Indianapolis Colts may be adding another pass catcher to their roster today in the form of Ryan Grant:

Source: Colts close to signing WR Ryan Grant, no deal yet. Sounds like it's happening. Grant has already passed Indy's physical. Free agency starting to take shape.

After failing his physical with the Baltimore Ravens, where he was set to sign for a four-year $29 million contract, Grant was thrust back into the free agent market.
General manager Chris Ballard and his front office quickly set up a meeting with Grant this past Saturday, and after visiting with the Oakland Raiders, seems to have come to an agreement with the blue and white.
The 27-year-old Grant was drafted in the fifth round by Washington in 2014, with his best statistical season coming in 2017 in the form of 45 passes for 573 yards and 4 touchdowns.
He will be joining T.Y. Hilton and Chester Rogers in the wide receivers room in Indianapolis and will look to bolster a unit that is in desperate need of some stability.
Update:
It’s 1-year and $5M for Grant. After the physical issue in Baltimore, he’s going to prove it for a year https://t.co/J89bPTmkMI
