Can Tyson Clabo be signed to add depth to the position?
The Indianapolis Colts could look no further than their own division to find depth at right tackle. 9-year veteran Tyson Clabo spent 2014 as a backup right tackle for the Houston Texans. Prior to his time in Houston, Clabo played in Atlanta for seven years starting in all 101 games he played in.
Clabo started 15 games for the Miami Dolphins in 2013 following their locker room scandals. He started out poorly for the dolphins but rebounded to finish strong for them in 2013.
Clabo is by no means a competitor for a starting position, but has experience and could step up in a pinch if needed. It is not hard to believe after a career with Atlanta, Miami and Houston, that he might sign a short-term low dollar deal to chase a ring in 2015.
