Former Tennessee Titans third-round pick and running back Darrynton Evans is set to have a work out with the Indianapolis Colts. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Evans will meet with the Colts on Friday to show his stuff.
The Appalachian State product spent the 2022 campaign with the Chicago Bears, where he tallied 14 carries for 64 yards and one catch for 33 yards in six games (no starts).
Prior to his stint in Chicago, Evans was a 2020 selection of Tennessee, but like too many Titans picks in recent years, he didn’t pan out. Evans simply couldn’t stay healthy and was off the team after two years.
Free agent running back Darrynton Evans is working out for the #Colts today, per source. The former third-round pick had 14 carries for 64 yards with Chicago last season.

Of that disastrous 2020 class, only two players remain on the Titans’ roster in second-round pick Kristian Fulton and seventh-round pick Chris Jackson, who was waived and then brought back last season before getting hurt.
Jackson likely isn’t long for this roster, and Fulton is on the hot seat going into a contract year after injury issues over his first three.
