Togiai originally signed as a rookie free agent out of Oregon State following the 2020 NFL Draft and was released during the final roster cutdown, with the hopes of being stashed on the practice squad. Togiai was claimed by the Indianapolis Colts where he spent the season. The 6-foot-4, 244-pound Togiai could see time on Thursday with Zach Ertz now in Arizona.
