Latest Fantasy Rumors
Visits with Indy
Thompson visited with the Colts on Thursday, per Mike Garafolo of NFL Network.
ANALYSIS
After spending the previous four seasons with the Cowboys, the free agent safety could be closing in on a deal with a new team. Thompson would likely take on a depth role if he signs with the Colts, as he mustered just three tackles in five appearances for Dallas last season.
