Indianapolis Colts rookie cornerback Johnathan Edwards has made headlines by securing the sixth-most guaranteed money among undrafted free agents (UDFAs) in the NFL this year, with a total of $280,000 guaranteed. This notable figure reflects the Colts' commitment to Edwards, a player who excelled at Tulane after transferring from Indiana State, demonstrating a highly competitive completion rate against him of just 54% during the last season.

Standing 6'1" and weighing 201 pounds, Edwards showcases exceptional speed, having clocked a 4.42-second 40-yard dash. His speed has earned him recognition from Colts' head coach Jon Sumrall, who regards him as potentially the fastest player on the team. Edwards' versatility as a cornerback extends beyond standard outside coverage, as he brings valuable box and nickel experience. The Colts' investment in him signifies their strategic approach to building a robust secondary to compete in a dynamic AFC South.
