The Indianapolis Colts (8-7) made a roster move ahead of their Week 17 matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders (7-8).

It's a move that the Raiders are probably raising an eyebrow too.

We have signed LB Austin Ajiake to the practice squad.

The Colts signed LB Austin Ajiake, a rookie out of UNLV, to their practice squad. The Denver Broncos signed Ajiake as an undrafted free agent this season. He has since spent time on the Green Bay Packers and Raiders practice squad. Ajiake signed up for the Raiders practice squad on November 1st, and it only lasted six days, as he would be released on November 7th.

Ajiake appeared in 48 games in college and produced 232 tackles and four sacks.

This move is interesting as a little over a month ago, Ajiake spent time with the Colts Week 17 opponent, the Raiders. Some could wonder if this move has to do with that fact and if the Colts are trying to get a leg up on their upcoming competition.
