- Cam Taylor-Britt was suspended one game by the NFL for violating the personal conduct policy, forcing him to miss the Colts' Week 1 home matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
- Taylor-Britt served a five-day jail sentence in January after pleading guilty to reckless driving and an unclassified no-license charge stemming from a September 2025 incident, when a Cincinnati police officer said he was driving recklessly following a Bengals game with pedestrians still in the area.
- Taylor-Britt signed a one-year deal with Indianapolis this offseason after four seasons in Cincinnati, where the 60th overall pick in the 2022 draft helped the Bengals reach the AFC title game as a rookie and posted a career-high four interceptions in 2023.
- Taylor-Britt's 2025 season was a setback, with two starts in eight games before a season-ending Lisfranc injury sustained in Cincinnati's Week 11 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
- Taylor-Britt reunited in Indianapolis with defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo, who held the same role with the Bengals during Taylor-Britt's first three seasons; Anarumo's first-year Colts defense ranked 21st in points allowed and 31st in passing yards allowed.
Why it matters: The Colts open the season without a veteran corner they just signed, forcing their secondary — which already ranked 31st in passing yards allowed under Anarumo — to adjust for Week 1 against the Ravens. Taylor-Britt's January jail sentence and now league suspension trace back to a reckless driving incident in Cincinnati, putting his off-field record under the microscope as he tries to revive his career in Indianapolis.
