Colts Sign Two New Quarterbacks

That headline isn’t something you’d expect to read these days, but with the recent news of Peyton Manning’s surgery on his knee, it makes sense.

With Peyton being out for an unknown amount of time, Sorgi will be stepping up, but who will back him up if needed?

Gray, who played collegiately at Florida A&M, spent 2002-2007 as a backup quarterback with Jacksonville, throwing for 1,252 yards, 12 touchdowns and five interceptions. He became an unrestricted free agent following this past season and signed in March with the Houston Texans, who released him in June.

Lorenzen, who played collegiately at Kentucky, played in four games in three seasons with the Giants, throwing for 28 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions.

Jaren Lorenzen and Quinn Gray will be working out with the team because Dungy likes building on what he’s already seen with these two players instead of starting fresh with a rookie with no NFL experience.

I’m not expecting either one of them to see much action if any, but I’d like for Lorenzen to get some time being from the University of Kentucky. I think it’s also cool that he played under Peyton’s brother Eli with the New York Giants.
