It looks like this
NFL offseason is the one where unretirements are cool. A former Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver retired at the start of March, only to
change his mind a month later and sign with the Tennessee Titans for one more season.
Others flirted with retirement, such as
Travis Kelce. The legendary tight end decided to run it back with the
Kansas City Chiefs after a tumultuous 2025 campaign.
More recently, a player who was out of the league for a whole three years decided to make a surprise comeback. He joined the
Indianapolis Colts ahead of the 2026 season.
Indianapolis Colts Add Safety With 44 NFL Stars
The Indianapolis Colts added Nasir Adderley to the roster on Tuesday. Adderley retired from the league in 2023 once his contract with the
Los Angeles Chargers expired. He played four seasons,
starting 44 games.
Adderley will join a secondary that already saw Jonathan Owens and Juanyeh Thomas sign in free agency. The Colts saw Nick Cross and Rodney Thomas II leave, too. The 28-year-old will bring depth to the defense, but it remains to be seen if all those years outside the competition affect his game.
Indianapolis enters the 2026 campaign with renewed expectations after re-signing both quarterback
Daniel Jones and wide receiver Alec Pierce.
