Former UConn linebacker Greg Lloyd Jr. was traded by the Philadelphia Eagles to the Indianapolis Colts in a deal which landed Philadelphia defensive back Kevin Thomas and a conditional 7th round pick in next year's draft.

Lloyd had two unassisted tackles for the Eagles during the 2011 preseason but spent the majority of last year on the practice school. He spent the last five weeks of the season on the active roster but did not appear in a game.

Lloyd becomes the third UConn product on the Colts roster joining fellow linebacker Scott Lutrus and running back Donald Brown.
