No rumor, just a fact: Indianapolis Colts put Mike Elgin on the practice squad

I don’t know how I missed this but on November 19 the Indianapolis Colts (drumroll, please) added Mike Elgin to the practice squad. That’s right, the Mike Elgin. The offensive lineman from East North Central Iowa Community College Hawkeyes (or something like that) who was drafted by the New England Patriots, showed excellent skills during training camp and pre-season games but then was cut at the end of camp, then picked up by the New York Jets/New Jersey Rats, then cut, and cut he remained for week after week after week until the Colts finally picked him up. What’s funny about the Colts picking him up is that when they signed Corey Hilliard I found it absurd that Hilliard, who stinks, would be in football but not Elgin, who can actually play.
