Ricardo Mathews will start at right defensive end with Fili Moala (torn ACL) out for the season.
Mathews had been playing nearly as many snaps as Moala in a rotation the past few weeks. The Colts run defense has stiffened of late while holding five of the past six opponents to 20 points or less. Thu, Nov 29, 2012 02:58:00 PM

Ricardo Mathews - DL - Colts

Colts promoted DT Ricardo Mathews from their practice squad.

The Colts lost DTs Eric Foster (ankle) and Drake Nevis (back) on Monday night, and were already down Fili Moala (ankle) coming into the game. Mathews appeared in eight games as a rookie last season, recording one tackle. He's an undersized, tweener end/tackle and isn't going to save Indianapolis' run defense.

Ricardo Mathews - DL - Colts

Colts waived DT Ricardo Mathews.

A seventh-round pick out of Cincinnati last year, Mathews appeared in eight games as a rookie, tallying just one tackle. Still eligible for the practice squad, that should be where Mathews ends up.

Ricardo Mathews - DL - Colts

Colts agreed to terms with seventh-round DL Ricardo Mathews on a four-year, $1.83 million contract.

As a tackle, the Cincinnati product was seemingly a better fit for former defensive coordinator Larry Coyer's Tampa-2 scheme. Instead, the Colts plan to utilize Mathews as a situational "power end" in the Raheem Brock mold. He's likely ticketed for the practice squad as a rookie.
