While it isn’t a bigger name some might have expected, a former Cincinnati Bengals defender has followed coordinator Lou Anarumo to the Indianapolis Colts.
There, linebacker Joe Bachie signed with the Colts, returning with Anarumo, the former Bengals coordinator who was let go by Zac Taylor at the start of the offseason.
Bachie, 27, was a former undrafted free agent who carved out a nice role for himself on special teams with the Bengals from 2021-2024.
