The Indianapolis Colts drafted a pair of Cincinnati Bearcats in second-round receiver Alec Pierce and sixth-round defensive tackle Curtis Brooks.
When the draft concluded, the Colts added Miami RedHawks safety Sterling Weatherford - seen by some as a potential defensive back/linebacker hybrid - as an undrafted free agent.
The 6-foot-4, 224-pound Weatherford joins fellow MU defensive back Mike Brown (signed by the Minnesota Vikings) and defensive back Cedric Boswell (signed by the Detroit Lions) - in addition to receiver Jack Sorenson, signed by the Bengals - among confirmed UDFAs.
Weatherford, who played in the Senior Bowl, finished his career at Miami with 209 tackles, 10.5 tackles for loss, three sacks, 19 pass breakups, four interceptions, three fumble recoveries and two forced fumbles. He was voted to the 2021 All-MAC Second Team Defense at DB.
RedHawks defensive end Dominique Robinson was drafted by the Chicago Bears in the fifth round on Saturday.
