Adam Schefter reports that the Colts are releasing veteran receiver Breshad Perriman as they work to trim their roster down to 53 players.

Perriman, 29, is a former first-round pick out of Central Florida by the Ravens in the 2015 NFL Draft. He spent over three seasons in Baltimore before he was cut loose.

Washington signed Perriman to a contract during the season, but elected to waive him soon after. From there, the Browns signed him to a contract and later agreed to a one-year, $4 million contract with Cleveland before asking the team to let him out of the agreement so he could sign with the Buccaneers.

The Jets signed Perriman to a one-year deal worth up to $8 million for the 2020 season and he later joined the Lions on a one-year contract worth $3 million. He did not make the final roster coming out of camp. 

After a brief stint with the Bears, Perriman caught on with the Buccaneers and returned to Tampa Bay last year on a one-year deal. The Colts signed him to a contract in June. 

In 2022, Perriman appeared in 11 games for the Buccaneers and caught nine passes on 110 yards receiving and one touchdown.
