Avery was waived by the Colts on Saturday, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.
Avery logged just two snaps with the Colts earlier this season and became unnecessary depth with the return of Tyquan Lewis. Avery has played on four different teams since being drafted by the Browns in the fifth round back in 2018.

Colts' Genard Avery: Past foot injury
Avery (foot) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Avery missed the Indianapolis' Week 8 loss to the Texans due to a foot injury, however, Wednesday's full practice suggests that he's now moved past the issue. The Memphis product has only suited up for one game this season and is expected to continue serving as a depth piece on the Colts' defensive line as the season progresses.

Colts' Genard Avery: Will miss Week 8
Avery has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Texans with a foot injury.
Avery didn't practice at all this week due to the injury. He's played in only one game so far this season, logging two defensive snaps Week 5 against the Jaguars, so Avery's absence Sunday isn't likely to have much of an impact on the Colts' defensive game plan.

Colts' Genard Avery: Back in the mix
Avery (leg) recorded four tackles (three solo) during Saturday's preseason win versus the Cardinals.
Not only has Avery managed to recover from the LCL and meniscus issues he'd been nursing since last August, but he was often in the middle of the action during Indianapolis' second preseason contest. It would not be shocking if he found his way onto the Colts' final 53-man roster for 2024.

Avery suffered an injury to his abdomen in Week 14 and has been sidelined since.
