Desir agreed Wednesday with the Colts on a three-year, $25 million contract that includes $12 million guaranteed, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Desir emerged as a standout in the secondary for the Colts last season, racking up 79 tackles (60 solo), one interception and two forced fumbles. The 28-year-old will fill a starting role for the club once again in 2019, with Kenny Moore the leading candidate to start at the other cornerback spot.

Milton agreed to sign a one-year, $1.75 million contract with the Colts on Tuesday, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.
Milton is a special-teams guru, but he rarely contributes on defense. It'll stay that way in 2019.
The Colts will extend a tender to Farley, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
Farley only suited up in five games in 2018, racking up 19 tackles (11 solo) and one interception. In 2017, the 26-year-old started 15 of 16 games, making 98 tackles (60 solo), two interceptions and a forced fumble. With three Colts safeties unrestricted free agents, Farley again could step into a starting role in 2019.

Colts' Chester Rogers: Likely to be tendered

7D ago
The Colts are slated to extend a tender to Rogers, Stephen Holder of The Athletic reports.
A restricted free agent, Rogers served as the veritable No. 2 wide receiver behind T.Y. Hilton last season. While he averaged 9.2 YPC and 6.7 YPT and scored just two touchdowns, Rogers hauled in 53 of his 72 targets, which was good for a 73.6 percent catch rate. Assuming he sticks with the Colts, he'll have additional competition at the position in the form of Devin Funchess, who is expected to become Rogers' teammate once the new league year begins Wednesday.
Colts' Marcus Johnson: Receives tender from Indianapolis

The Colts extended a tender to Johnson on Friday, Stephen Holder of The Athletic reports.
The Texas product was only able to suit up in five games last season, and caught six of eight targets for 102 yards and a touchdown. It should be noted that Johnson received medical clearance following ankle surgery, so he should be a full-go this offseason.

The Colts will not be putting a restricted tender on Moore as he enters free agency, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio reports.
Moore was claimed off of waivers by Indy prior to Week 1 and spent the season with the team. He was primarily a special teams contributor. It looks like he will be in search of a new landing spot once free agency officially commences.

Colts' Margus Hunt: Gets extension

11D ago
Hunt signed a two-year, $9 million contract with the Colts on Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Hunt's deal includes incentives that could make the deal worth up to $10 million. The 31-year-old started 15 games last season and posted a career-high five sacks.
General manager Chris Ballard said he will meet with Geathers' agents this week to discuss his contract status, Andrew Walker of the Colts' official site reports. "Do we want Clayton back? Yes, we want Clayton back," Ballard said Wednesday.
The 26-year-old is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. When healthy, Geathers has been an effective player when operating near the line of scrimmage and could certainly be of service to the up-and-coming Colts defense in 2019, though his going rate on the open market may be too rich for Indianapolis.

Colts' Jack Doyle: Aiming for training camp
Rotowire
18D ago
Doyle (kidney) had offseason hip surgery and hopes to be ready for training camp, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.
Doyle missed Weeks 3 though 7 of the 2018 campaign with a hip injury and later landed on injured reserve when he suffered a kidney laceration in late November. The second issue may have pushed back his timeline for getting the hip addressed, but he's still hoping to get back on the practice field by late July or August. Once he's back up to speed, Doyle may find himself in a timeshare with Eric Ebron, who erupted for 750 receiving yards and 14 total touchdowns in 2018.
