The Facts: Colbert was released by the Seattle Seahawks on Tuesday following a disappointing stint with the team.
Diehards Line:Colbert came to Seattle in a trade with Denver on Sept. 17. The Seahawks gave up an undisclosed draft pick to acquire him, hoping he would boost an injury-depleted receiving corps. But Colbert struggled to get involved in the offense, catching only seven passes in seven games with one touchdown. He also had a critical drop on third down early in the fourth quarter of Seattleās 21-19 loss at Miami last Sunday. Local reports suggest Courtney Taylor will be promoted from the practice squad to fill Colbert's roster spot.
