The Indianapolis Colts have signed free-agent cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt, the NFL team announced on Tuesday.
An All-State quarterback at Park Crossing High School in Montgomery, Taylor-Britt played the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Cincinnati Bengals to complete his four-year, $5.953 million rookie contract signed as a second-round selection in the 2022 draft.
Taylor-Britt became an unrestricted free agent on Wednesday. Terms of his contract with the Colts were not disclosed.
In 2025, Taylor-Britt had 21 tackles and five passes defended in eight games, with two starts. He sustained a foot injury in the Bengals’ 34-12 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Nov. 16 and spent the final seven games of the season on injured reserve. Taylor-Britt had played 61 percent of Cincinnati’s defensive snaps when he went down.
In his first three seasons, Taylor-Britt played in 42 games, including three playoff contests, and started all but one of them. He had seven interceptions, 33 passes defended, 182 tackles and two forced fumbles in regular-season play from 2022 through 2024. He also had a postseason interception.

By joining Indianapolis, Taylor-Britt reunites with Lou Anarumo. The Colts defensive coordinator was the Cincinnati defensive coordinator in Taylor-Britt’s first three NFL seasons.
During Taylor-Britt’s first three NFL seasons, opposing quarterbacks had a 93.5 passing-efficiency rating when targeting receivers covered by him. In 2025, that number ballooned to 134.1.
Indianapolis returns the four cornerbacks who played the most defensive snaps for the Colts in 2025, along with two-time first-team All-Pro Sauce Garner, who joined the team halfway through the season in a trade with the New York Jets.
