The Indianapolis Colts officially reduced their roster to 53 players Tuesday with only a handful of surprises.
Though the moves are far from complete—Wednesday’s waiver period will see to that—we know which players failed to make the initial roster. Whether it was due to injury or simply being a part of a numbers game, the Colts made 38 total moves in order to reduce the roster to 53 players.

Six of them, though, were transferred to reserve lists so they won’t be counted here.
We should expect the Colts to be active on the waiver wire considering they hold the fourth spot in the order so these aren’t the only players who will receive a pink slip this week.
Here’s a look at the players who the Colts cut as they assembled their 53-man roster:
