Overview
- Davis-Gaither is expected to compete for a starting role as Indianapolis reshapes a thinned linebacker group following the trade of Zaire Franklin and the departure of Segun Olubi.
- Contract terms for Davis-Gaither and Westbrook-Ikhine were not disclosed by the team.
- The former Bengals fourth-round pick (2020) spent five seasons under Anarumo in Cincinnati and brings extensive special-teams experience to Indianapolis.
- Westbrook-Ikhine, an Indianapolis native and former Titans receiver, joins a receiving corps adjusting after Michael Pittman Jr. was traded, following a 2025 season in Miami with 11 catches for 89 yards.
- The additions continue a busy week for the Colts, who also added DT Jerry Tillery, TE Carson Towt, safeties Juanyeh Thomas and Jonathan Owens, and CB Cam Taylor-Britt, and re-signed TE Mo Alie-Cox.
