INDIANAPOLIS -- Colts cornerback Vontae Davis is week-to-week with right medial ankle sprain, coach Chuck Pagano announced Monday. Davis was seen walking out of the locker room with a cast on his right foot. He is coming off back-to-back Pro Bowl appearances. Davis' injury adds to a secondary that is dealing with a number of setbacks. Patrick Robinson, who is expected to start with Davis, has a groin injury. Nickel cornerback Darius Butler is working his way back from a hamstring injury. Pagano described his current cornerback situation as being "scary."  The Colts plan to work out cornerback Antonio Cromartie, an NFL source said, confirming a report by the Indianapolis Star. Cromartie was released by the New York Jets earlier this offseason, ending his return to the franchise after just one season. Cromartie, 32, struggled in 2015, allowing a team-high seven touchdown passes, according to Pro Football Focus. He acknowledged at midseason that he wasn't playing up to his standard. In 15 games, Cromartie failed to record a single interception for the first time since his rookie season with the San Diego Chargers, in 2006. He made 26 solo tackles and had one fumble recovery. He also was the Jets' leading kickoff returner, averaging 25.1 yards per return. ESPN Jets reporter Rich Cimini contributed to this report.
