INDIANAPOLIS -- The Colts are giving running back Chris Rainey a second chance to prove he can play -- and stay out of trouble. Evgenii Dadonov Jersey . Pittsburgh took Rainey in the fifth round of the 2012 draft, but released him in January following an arrest in Florida following an alleged altercation with his girlfriend. It wasnt the first time he ran into legal trouble, but for the Steelers it was the last straw. For 11 months, Rainey worked out and waited to be signed by another NFL team. Indianapolis (7-3) reached out to him Tuesday and signed him Wednesday. "Eleven months is a long time so Im just glad to be back," Rainey said Wednesday. Rainey is the latest gamble made by the Colts this season. They had previously signed receiver DaRick Rogers, who admitted to flunking multiple drug tests in college. They also have receiver LaVon Brazill, a second-year player they drafted in 2012 who missed four games after violating the leagues substance-abuse policy, and tight end Weslye Saunders, who was suspended eight games after violating the leagues performance-enhancing drug policy. Theres little doubt the 5-foot-9, 198-pound running back has talent. Coming out of the University of Florida, he was clocked in about 4.3 seconds in the 40-yard dash. And last season, Rainey played in all 16 games, rushing 26 times for 102 yards and two touchdowns while catching 14 passes for 60 yards. He also averaged 26.5 yards on kickoff returns. And he finished ninth on Floridas career rushing list with 2,464 yards. But the problems have come off the field. In college, he was reportedly charged with stalking -- something the Steelers investigated before taking him. In Pittsburgh, he reportedly received citations for driving with a suspended license, which was later dismissed, and "defiant trespass" at a casino -- and that was before the alleged trouble in Florida. Colts coach Chuck Pagano said Wednesday that the Colts made their expectations clear before signing Rainey even though its unclear how long hell stick around the Colts locker room. "We worked him out. We sat him down, spent a lot of time with him, obviously," Pagano said. "We feel like hes learned from his mistakes and theyre behind him." Rainey later acknowledged he has a different attitude about this chance because he spent so much time waiting to get back in the league, even turning down chances to play in the Canadian Football League. Wednesdays move is Indys latest attempt to shore up its offence since top receiver Reggie Wayne went out with a season-ending knee injury, and theyre hoping this one works out. Rainey insists hell make sure it does. "All I can do is move forward and just stay positive from here," Rainey said. "I know what people read. They dont know me, so the people who know me, they know me. I cant do nothing about it." Aleksander Barkov Jersey . Kelli Stack and Alex Carpenter also scored for the Americans, who avoided a repeat of Finlands upset at the Four Nations Cup in Lake Placid, N.Y., in November. Finnish goalie Noora Raty made 58 saves in that one, but the three-time Olympian could stop just 40 of 43 U. Cheap Panthers Jerseys . Tensions rose in the first period when Penguins defenceman Brooks Orpik hit Bruins forward Loui Eriksson with what appeared to be a clean hit. http://www.nhlpanthersauthority.com/authentic-roberto-luongo-panthers-jersey/ . Forward Iker Muniain scored the winner in the 70th minute after Bilbaos incessant pressure recovered the ball and sparked a counterattack inside Barcelonas half. Neymar was once again tagged to pick up Messis goal-scoring duties, but when he wasnt frustrated by slippery footing Bilbaos defence got the better of him.NIAGARA FALLS, Ont. - After her 10th-place finish at the U.S. Womens open, Canadian teenager Brooke Henderson says shes keeping her options open when it comes to turning pro. But the 16-year-old from Smiths Falls, Ont., says right now she remains committed to a scholarship at the University of Florida once she finishes high school. "I am still committed to the University of Florida right now but well just see," she said Monday, as she prepared to compete in the second stop of the season for the Canadian Womens Tour in Niagara Falls, Ont. "LPGA is definitely my goal and I hope to have a successful career out there sometime soon. I dont know when that is right now, if its this year, next year or four years, after I finish university." The Open was won by another former teenage golf legend, Michelle Wie, 24, who turned pro just before her 16th birthday. The Open was her first major win. Henderson, who had the best score among amateurs at the challenging No. Vincent Trocheck Jersey. 2 Pinehurst course, admitted to some anxious moments at the start of her second Open. "The course was very difficult . . . and the beginning of the week I was a little bit intimidated because it was so hard and it was running so firm and fast," she said. But she got more comfortable as she worked her way to that final round 69. "I just knew that i had to hit certain spots on the fairways and certain spots on the greens and then it would be all right. I was able to hit the ball really well (last) week and hit those spots, which made it a little easier on me." Henderson, the No. 3-ranked amateur in the world, edged the top amateur, Australian Minjee Lee, by three strokes to take the low-amateur medal. She didnt get much of a break after the Open with a long drive to Niagara Falls but says shes always happy to be playing on the Canadian Tour.
