Former Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt is expected to sign with the Indianapolis Colts, according to a report from Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The defensive back visited the team on Tuesday, leading to an agreement that will see him join the Colts secondary for the upcoming season.
The signing marks a major reunion for Taylor-Britt, who will once again play under the direction of Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo. Anarumo previously served as the defensive coordinator for the Bengals, where he coached Taylor-Britt during some of the franchise's most successful recent seasons. The familiarity between the player and the coordinator is expected to ease Taylor-Britt's transition into the Indianapolis defensive scheme.
Taylor-Britt brings significant starting experience to the Colts roster. Having played a pivotal role in the Bengals defensive backfield, his arrival provides Indianapolis with a veteran presence as they look to solidify their coverage units. The Colts had been linked to secondary help throughout the offseason, and the addition of Taylor-Britt addresses a key area of need on the depth chart.
Details regarding the length and financial terms of the contract are currently pending. Taylor-Britt is expected to officially join the team once the paperwork is finalized following his visit.
