Injuries leave Indianapolis Colts shorthanded in key area of defense
Last week, without Ebukam or Lewis, the Colts relied mostly on Kwity Paye and Laiatu Latu at defensive end, with JT Tuimoloau and Durell Nchami combining for 13 total snaps. At what is often a heavily rotated position, there was very little rotation taking place.
Indianapolis Colts cornerback Sauce Gardner was thinking about a pick-6. “I was trying to score, so I was already looking at the end zone,” Gardner said. The Colts were trailing 17-13 at the time, on a third-and-8 with just under 10 minutes to go in the third quarter.
The Colts' other starting defensive tackle, Grover Stewart, went to the medical tent after collision on the first play of the second half for a possible head injury then to the locker room, eliminating the heart of the Colts' run defense against Atlanta's Bijan Robinson. He is questionable to return.
