Colts Meet With LB Korey Toomer

The Colts are meeting with linebacker Korey Toomer on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN.com tweets. Toomer has spent the last two seasons with the Chargers but is now exploring free agency. 

Toomer came to the Bolts in 2016 when he was signed off of the Raiders’ practice squad. Since then, he has racked up 125 tackles for the Chargers. The Chargers retained Toomer with a $1.797MM low tender last season but, this time around, he’s likely looking at a pay bump.

After Jonathan Bostic signed with the Steelers and Barkevious Mingo joined up with the Dolphins, the Colts are looking at a little thin at linebacker. They’ll have opportunities to add to the unit in the draft – particularly after trading down with the Jets and scoring two additional second picks – but Toomer would represent a proven veteran option.

In 2017, Toomer racked up 48 tackles, one sack, and one interception returned for a touchdown in 15 games.
