The Indianapolis Colts are finalizing their top-30 visits for the 2026 NFL draft, hosting several prospects for interviews and evaluations. These visits are not necessarily for the top 30 players on their draft board but for those they want to assess further.
Tracking the Colts' top-30 visits for the 2026 NFL draft
INDIANAPOLIS — With the NFL draft a little more than a week away, the Colts are still in the process of getting a good look at every player, hosting a handful of prospects in their final top-30 visits of the draft cycle this week.
Every NFL team is allowed to host 30 draft prospects at their facility for interviews, medical checks and other information-gathering purposes.
But the term "top-30 visit" is a bit of a misnomer. NFL teams typically do not use top-30 visits for the top 30 players on their draft board. These visits are reserved for players a team hasn't gotten a chance to interview yet, or a player the team wants to spend more time evaluating after initial interest.
The visits also are not the only time a team can thoroughly evaluate and interview a player. NFL teams, including the Colts, do similar work at the Senior Bowl, NFL scouting combine and Pro Days, as well as the team visiting players for private workouts during the draft process.
With that in mind, these are the 14 reported "top-30" visits. IndyStar has been able to confirm most with league sources, offering a look at the players who've made the trip to Indianapolis.

Alec Pierce #14 of the Indianapolis Colts scores a touchdown in the first quarter against the Jacksonville Jaguars at Lucas Oil Stadium on January 05, 2025 in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Cole Payton, QB, North Dakota State (NFL Network)
Payton's an intriguing small-school quarterback with dual-threat capability who would be a developmental piece, potentially sliding in behind Riley Leonard if the Colts are able to find a trade partner for Anthony Richardson.
Garrett Nussmeier, QB, LSU (NFL Network)
Nussmeier's a developmental quarterback who went through an injury-plagued season in 2025, leaving him unable to replicate the 4,000-yard season he produced in 2024.
Chris Bell, WR, Louisville (source)
Bell, a 6-2, 220-plus pound receiver, is coming off an ACL tear suffered late in the season, but he was a high-volume target for the Cardinals, making 72 catches in 11 games before the injury.
Ted Hurst, WR, Georgia State (source)
Hurst, who narrowly missed posting back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons in his final two years at Georgia State, ran the 40-yard dash in 4.42 seconds after measuring 6-4 at the NFL scouting combine, making him a prototypical deep threat.
Chris Brazzell, WR, Tennessee (NFL Network)
Another size-speed prospect, Brazzell's a blazing deep threat who ran an impressive 4.37-second 40-yard dash at 6-foot-4, coming off a breakout 2025 that produced 62 catches, 1,017 yards and nine touchdowns.
Kyle Dixon, WR, Culver-Stockton (source)
An NAIA receiver, Dixon turned heads at his Pro Day, posting incredible all-around numbers at 220 pounds after dominating NAIA competition with back-to-back 1,100-yard seasons.
Malachi Lawrence, DE, Central Florida (source)
Widely considered a potential second-round pick, Lawrence has the length (33 5/8-inch arms) and speed (4.52 seconds in the 40-yard dash) that Colts GM Chris Ballard has historically tried to find in defensive ends. Lawrence averaged 6.3 sacks in his final three college seasons, but he never had more than 7.5 in a season.
Romello Height, DE, Texas Tech (source)
Height broke out with a 10-sack season for the Red Raiders after stints at Auburn, USC and Georgia Tech, but with a 6-3, 239-pound frame, he'd likely profile as a situational pass rusher early in his career, rather than an every-down starter.
Uar Bernard, DL, Nigeria (Denver Post)
Bernard, who is part of the NFL's International Player Pathway program, created a lot of buzz with an otherworldly workout for a player who weighs more than 300 pounds.
Christen Miller, DT, Georgia (source)
A developmental nose tackle who started for the Bulldogs in 2025, Miller would be considered a potential heir to Grover Stewart.
Jackson Kuwatch, LB, Miami of Ohio (source)
A likely Day 3 pick, Kuwatch was not invited to the Combine after one year as a starter, but he played well at the Shrine Bowl and ran a 4.62-second 40 at his Pro Day, making him an intriguing possibility for a Colts team that might draft multiple linebackers.
Charles Demmings, CB, Stephen F. Austin (source)
Demmings has size (6-1) and speed (4.41 seconds in the 40-yard dash) as a cornerback coming from a small school who might be available on the third day of the draft.
Kapena Gushiken, S, Ole Miss (source)
A smaller defensive back who wasn't invited to the NFL scouting combine, Gushiken turned heads with an impressive Pro Day workout, running the 40-yard dash in 4.35 seconds.
Jalon Kilgore, S, South Carolina (Essentially Sports' Tony Pauline)
A big-bodied safety at 6-1, 210 pounds, Kilgore profiles as a potential Nick Cross replacement at strong safety who has the speed and instincts to moonlight in other roles for Lou Anarumo's defense.
