The Indianapolis Colts have made an addition to their Week 13 game day roster for Sunday's matchup with the Houston Texans.

The Colts announced on Saturday that defensive tackle Chris Wormley is being elevated from the practice squad to the active roster for this week's matchup.

Along with that move, the Colts are now listing tight end Tyler Warren as questionable for this game.

Wormley was signed to the Colts' practice squad less than two weeks ago.

The veteran defensive tackle was a third-round draft pick by the Baltimore Ravens in 2017. Over his eight NFL seasons, he has appeared in 87 games, including making 31 starts.

He has appeared in just seven games between the 2023 and 2024 seasons.

Wormley's most productive season came in 2021, when he logged 29 quarterback pressures and seven sacks, according to PFF.

The Colts are without DeForest Buckner, who is on injured reserve, and have relied heavily on just a three-man rotation at defensive tackle in his absence, with Grover Stewart, Neville Gallimore, and Adetomiwa Adebawore shouldering the workload at that position.

Around the NFL, four-man rotations at this position group are common, and are what the Colts did before Buckner's injury.

It remains to be seen how extensive Wormley's role will be, but he does provide depth at the position. The Colts also have Eric Johnson on the roster.
