Let’s take a closer look at each of the Colts’ UDFAs. Up first is Temple kicker Maddux Trujillo.

In addition to their eight draft picks, the Indianapolis Colts have also reportedly signed a number of undrafted rookies after the 2025 NFL draft to add to their 90-man offseason roster.

Just as we did with each of the eight draft selections, let’s take a closer look at each of the Colts‘ UDFAs. Up first is Temple kicker Maddux Trujillo.

Maddux Trujillo’s profileBreaking down the Colts’ UDFA signing

The 2024 season was Trujillo’s first at Temple. His previous three seasons before that were played at Austin Peay.

This past year, Trujillo made all 21 of his extra point attempts and he was 16-for-22 (72.7%) on field goals. This included going 5-for-5 from 40-49 yards and 5-of-8 from 50-plus.

Trujillo finished his four college seasons with a 72% hit rate, and was 73.1% from 40-49 yards and 60% on 10 attempts from 50 or more yards, according to PFF.

It’s been common for the Colts to have two kickers on their 90-man roster. This is still Spencer Shrader’s job, but the team does want to continually look for high upside players at this position.

“We usually always bring in two kickers as it is,” Ballard said via the team site before the draft. “We’re always looking for a guy with upside, kind of like last year with Spencer (Shrader). I give our special team coaches all the credit for that. They identified Spencer last year and said, ‘Look, he’s got upside.’ We didn’t necessarily have a vision that this is how it would work out, but you never know.

“So, they do a great job finding guys with some upside. So, we’ll look for a guy with some leg strength and upside, and think we can work with and see how it plays out.”

Maddux Trujillo’s scouting report

Lance Zierlein: “Long-limbed kicker with eye-catching range to make field goals. Trujillo transferred from Austin Peay and showed impressive power in his lone season at Temple. He hits the ball with consistent flight and is capable of handling kickoffs as well. He needs to prove he can be more consistent on shorter kicks, but his ability to hit from distance creates value.”

They said it

Special teams coordinator Brian Mason via the Indy Star: “We think (Trujillo is) very similar to what Spencer was last year,” special teams coordinator Brian Mason said. “Maybe, statistically, wasn’t what you’d think you’d be looking for from a college standpoint, less than an 80% kicker. … But you can see a lot of guys — even Harrison Butker was less than 80% in college — if they have the talent and mental makeup, be able to take the next step.”

Mason would add: “We’re looking for somebody that, No. 1, is going to have a really special leg,” Mason said. “Leg strength. What’s the trajectory they’re getting on their kicks? What’s their ability to make 50-plus-yard field goals?”
