Indianapolis, IN (SportsNetwork.com) – The Indianapolis Colts released starting center Samson Satele among a flurry of roster moves announced by the team Thursday.<\/p>\n
Satele, who started all 27 games (including three postseason tilts) he appeared in during his two-year tenure in Indianapolis, was to have counted more than $5 million against the salary cap this season. The 29-year-old was entering the final season of a three-year contract he signed with the Colts in March of 2012.<\/p>\n
A second-round pick of Miami in the 2007 draft, Satele has started 98-of-102 games over seven seasons with the Dolphins, Oakland Raiders and Colts.<\/p>\n
Indianapolis, which agreed to a reported four-year, $22 million deal with free agent linebacker D’Qwell Jackson earlier in the day, also extended tender offers to a pair of restricted free agents, cornerback Josh Gordy and guard Joe Reitz. Additionally, the team retained outside linebacker Cam Johnson, an exclusive rights player.<\/p>\n
Gordy saw action in 12 games last season, his second with the Colts, and recorded 12 tackles with one interception. Reitz was an eight-game starter at left guard in 2012 and has opened 20 games over the past three seasons.<\/p>\n
Johnson tallied six special-teams stops in 12 games in 2013.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
