STACKED’s take
Undrafted rookie Booth signed to Colts practice squad after Browns waived him.
The Indianapolis Colts signed the 5'9", 192-pound undrafted rookie running back from Mississippi State to their practice squad after he was waived by the Cleveland Browns. Booth appeared in 3 preseason games for Cleveland with 17 carries for 109 rushing yards and 1 rushing touchdown, plus 3 receptions for -3 receiving yards. As a senior at Mississippi State in 2025, he recorded 136 carries for 553 rushing yards (4.1 ypc average) and 7 rushing touchdowns, plus 15 receptions for 165 receiving yards and 2 touchdown receptions in 12 games. NFL.com's draft profile notes he is a compact runner lacking ideal size and athleticism, with adequate quickness and solid decision-making in finding his lane, but lacks wiggle or power to create for himself; he carries some third-down value but may struggle to lock down a roster spot. His Relative Athletic Score is 3.68 out of 10.0 due to lack of size and explosion. The source suggests the Colts may have felt Booth offered more developmental upside than the practice squad running back he replaced (Ulysses Bentley IV).
