The Indianapolis Colts signed punter Matt Haack and waived kicker Jake Verity, the team announced Thursday.
Haack joins the Colts roster after the unfortunate news that starting punter Rigoberto Sanchez suffered a torn Achilles during practice Tuesday when running sprints at the end of the session.
Haack, 28, has been in the league since joining the Miami Dolphins as an undrafted free agent out of Arizona State in 2017. He spent four years with the Dolphins before signing a three-year deal with the Buffalo Bills in 2021.
However, the Bills opted to go with Matt Araiza, “The Punt God,” this offseason and Haack was released on Aug. 22.
In order to make room on the roster, the Colts waived kicker Jake Verity, who had been battling with starter Rodrigo Blankenship.
