If the Colts wanted to bring back Denbow off of IR this season, then Denbow needed to be on the initial 53 man roster.
So they needed a roster spot for 24 hours.
If you pick a vested veteran as the cut for that roster spot, that player won't be subject to waivers. The Colts may have even told Dennis Kelly that if he waited a day or two and not pursued other free agent openings that the Colts would sign him back to the active roster.
