Hakeem Nicks signs one-year Indianapolis Colts deal

The Indianapolis Colts announce the signing of wide receiver Hakeem Nicks on a one-year deal.

The Indianapolis Colts have announced that they have signed wide receiver Hakeem Nicks on a one-year deal.

The 26-year-old was allowed to test the free-agent market by the New York Giants after five years with the club.

Chuck Pagano's side sealed a deal for Nicks worth $3.5m (£2.1m) with the option of further incentives.

"Hakeem is a big, tough, and highly competitive wide receiver who knows what it takes to win," general manager Ryan Grigson told the club's official website.

"His big-play potential requires attention from the defense every time he's out on the field.

"He adds another highly talented playmaker to our offense and we are happy to announce he is now an Indianapolis Colt."

Nicks recorded 56 receptions for 896 yards during the 2013 season, but failed to a score a touchdown.
