The Indianapolis Colts signed free agent cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt, and Over the Cap has those contract details.
Taylor-Britt signed a one-year, $1.402 million deal to join the Colts. This includes a base salary of $1.215 million, $500,000 of which is guaranteed. He also received a signing bonus of $187,500.
In total, $687,500 of Taylor-Britt’s contract is guaranteed. His salary cap hit for the 2026 season is $1.262 million.
Cam Taylor-Britt’s fit with the Colts
Taylor-Britt played his first four seasons with the Bengals, which includes playing under Lou Anarumo for three of those years. Early on, he showcased high-level playing, allowing a completion rate of just 54% in his first two seasons. He’s had strong ball production in his career as well, generating 38 passes defensed with seven interceptions.

However, there has been inconsistency as well. He’s been penalized relatively often and has surrendered 14.6 yards per catch during his career, per PFF. It has seemingly been boom or bust for Taylor-Britt.
In a crowded Colts cornerback room, Taylor-Britt will be competing for a roster spot. Realistically, Taylor-Britt, Mekhi Blackmon, Jaylon Jones, Johnathan Edwards, and Cameron Mitchell are competing for two or, at most, three roster spots.
Given Taylor-Britt’s familiarity with Anarumo’s system, that should help him hit the ground running. This is also a low-risk move for the Colts. Releasing Taylor-Britt during roster cutdowns leaves behind a dead cap hit of only $687,500. However, if Anarumo can help Taylor-Britt regain a version of his previous form, the Colts’ cornerback depth gets a major boost.
