Veteran cornerback Xavien Howard is signing a one-year deal with the Indianapolis Colts after a one-year absence from the NFL.

New Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo already has a sense of what four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Xavien Howard brings to his injury-depleted secondary — even at age 32, even after a year out of football.

The Indianapolis Colts are signing veteran cornerback and former Miami Dolphins star Xavien Howard, his agent, David Canter of Aura Sports Group, announced Monday. Howard, a two-time All-Pro, will join the Colts on a one-year deal worth up to $5 million, a league source confirmed to The Athletic.
