Starter Andrew Luck is still out with a lacerated kidney. Backup Matt Hasselbeck is considered doubtful after hurting his throwing shoulder Sunday, and third-stringer Charlie Whitehurst went on injured reserve Monday with a hamstring problem.

That left Stephen Morris, who was signed Dec. 24, as the only healthy quarterback on the roster before Sunday’s game against Tennessee.

Freeman was a first-round pick in 2009 and started 60 games. He has not played in the NFL since 2013. He played at Kansas State from 2006-08.

Indy also promoted inside linebacker Amarlo Herrera to the active roster, signed guard Kitt O’Brien to the practice squad and put linebacker Josh McNary on injured reserve.
