Just three days after losing running back Vick Ballard for the season, the Indianapolis Colts are without another piece to their running game.
Colts released running back Chris Rainey on Monday for an undisclosed violation of a team rule. The team is expected to discuss the reason for his release after practice on Monday.
Rainey was released by the Steelers in January 2013 after a simple battery arrest after an altercation with a woman over a cellphone in Gainesville Florida. The Colts signed Rainey in November of that year but was placed on injured reserve in December with a foot injury.
With Ballard out and Rainey released the Colts are weak at the running back position. While Trent Richardson is in camp, he is unable to practice because of a hamstring injury. This leaves just Ahmad Bradshaw, Dan Herron and Zurlon Tipton as the only backs currently available to practice and play.
