The Colts on Friday signed free agent defensive tackle Derrick Nnadi.
The 6-foot-1, 317 pound Nnadi has spent all eight of his pro seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs, where he contributed to three Super Bowl-winning teams (2019, 2022, 2023). Nnadi started and totaled four tackes in the Chiefs’ Super Bowl LIV victory over the San Francisco 49ers, and he also started in Kansas City’s Super Bowl LVII win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
Nnadi, 29, joined the Chiefs as a third-round pick (No. 75 overall) in the 2018 NFL Draft out of Florida State. Over his eight-year career, he’s only missed a total of three regular season games; he’s played 130 games (98 starts) and totaled 249 tackles, five sacks, seven tackles for a loss, one forced fumble and one interception.
Nnadi will join a group of Colts defensive tackles including Adetomiwa Adebawore and Colby Wooden behind entrenched veterans DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart.
