While the Colts' initial 53-man roster is now set, the Colts have been known to be active on the waiver wire following cuts in the Chris Ballard era. So more roster shuffling should be expected in the coming days as the Colts prepare for their Week 1 matchup at home vs. the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, September 10th at 1 p.m. EST.
