Let’s take a closer look at each of the Colts’ UDFAs. Up next is Ohio wide receiver Coleman Owen.

In addition to their eight draft picks, the Indianapolis Colts have also signed 15 undrafted rookies after the 2025 NFL draft to add to their 91-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 next is Ohio wide receiver Coleman Owen.

Coleman Owen’s profile

After five seasons at FCS Northern Arizona, Owen transferred to Ohio for the 2024 season. At both schools, he was featured heavily in the offense.

During Owen’s final three seasons at Northern Arizona, he had at least 70 targets each year, including 93 in 2022. For his career, you won’t find many with more pass-catching opportunities than Owen, who totaled 381 targets while catching 67% of those passes at 13.8 yards per catch with 25 touchdowns.

During the 2024 season, specifically, almost all of Owen’s snaps came from the slot, which was the case at Northern Arizona as well. He would go on to catch 69% of his 113 targets and averaged an impressive 16.0 yards per catch with eight scores.

Owen was particularly good after the catch, totaling the eighth-most YAC out of any receiver last season and ranking 13th in average YAC. He was also a very efficient target, ranking fifth in yards per route run, according to PFF.

In addition to his contributions at wide receiver, Owen is also an experienced punt returner and has some kick return attempts as well. Owen finished his college career with 39 punt return attempts, averaging 9.7 yards per return with two scores.

They said it

In an interview with Justin Melo of The Draft Network, Owen described how he would attack different coverages as a route runner.

“If it’s man, I’m looking at the leverage of the defender and depending on how he’s playing, I’m either sticking the route inside and running a 10-yard speed cut-in,” Owen told Melo. “If he’s playing heads-up, I can sell our inside fade route and still hit that 10-yard speed cut-in.

“If the defender is playing Cover 2, I’m chasing the face of the safety and running a post route. If it’s Tampa 2, I might sit the route down. There’s a lot of different options on the table. I have to execute my pre-snap read and then react to the coverage post-snap.”
