Hamler had an opportunity to compete for a roster spot this offseason on a thin Bills' depth chart, but he wasn't able to earn one and is being waived by the team. He is eligible to be claimed by another team over the next few days, but if he isn't, he'll hit the open market as a free agent.

Free agent WR KJ Hamler, who took time away from football to deal with a pericarditis diagnosis, has signed with the Indianapolis Colts' practice squad.

Hamler, who was dealing with a heart issue, was waived by the Denver Broncos with initial reports saying they intended to re-sign him after he was ready to return. Either they had a change of mind, or Hamler did, but now he is in Indy. The Colts could use some more WR depth, and Hamler could be a potential 53-man-roster add later this season.

The Indianapolis Colts hosted KJ Hamler.

Hamler was waived by the Broncos back in July. He could land as a depth wide receiver with the Colts if he signs with them.

The Broncos are planning on waiving WR KJ Hamler with a non-football illness designation. The team is hopeful to bring him back once he is healthy.

Hamler shared on his Instagram that he began having chest pains while working out prior to training camp. Hamler was diagnosed with mild heart irritation, or pericarditis. The team does not believe that his condition is serious and he is expected to only miss a few weeks. With the injury to Tim Patrick in practice Monday, the team needed to free up a roster spot to bring in another healthy wide receiver.
