The Colts on Thursday activated veteran pass rusher Trent Cole from their injured-reserve list.
Cole had been placed on IR on Sept. 27 and recently returned to practice.
Cole, 34, is in his 12th NFL season and second with the Colts. He had three sacks last season. If he can get healthy and still can get in the backfield, he’ll get snaps for a Colts team hoping to make a late run at the AFC South title.
The Colts created a roster spot for Cole by waiving quarterback Stephen Morris, who’d been called up from the practice squad last week with Andrew Luck out due to a concussion. Now that Luck has been cleared, Morris will likely land back on the Colts’ practice squad if he clears waivers.
The Colts are at the Jets Monday night.
