LARAMIE — Before the season began, Chad Muma was looking for a new home. Jacksonville, the team that drafted him, had cut him. The former University of Wyoming linebacker was left wondering where his NFL journey would continue.

Indianapolis signed the four-year veteran, and after a Week 1 inactive status, Muma has earned playing time and contributed. He made a tackle in the Colts’ 31-27 come-from-behind victory over Arizona on Sunday, giving him a tackle in four of the last five games while playing on special teams and getting reps at linebacker.

The surprising 5-1 Colts travel to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.
