The Colts are in the middle of one of the toughest tasks of the year. Indianapolis has spent the days since Saturday’s preseason finale making hard decisions, whittling the roster down from 90 players to 53 in a marathon cut that takes a toll on everybody involved,

The Indianapolis Colts and the rest of the NFL must have their rosters blasted down to 53 players by 4:00 p.m. E.T. this Tuesday, so some very difficult conversations are currently being had behind the scenes to determine who is worthy of a roster spot.

The Indianapolis Colts have begun to trim their roster down from 90 to 53 before the deadline on Tuesday at 4 p.m. The team finished its preseason with a dominant win over the Bengals, 41-14, on Saturday.
