Colts Star Linebacker Questionable, Could Make Season Debut In Week 4

 

The Indianapolis Colts are finally on the board in 2022, with a shocking victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3, taking their record to a very unique 1-1-1 on the season, and ahead of their Week 4 battle with the division rival Tennessee Titans, they've received some potentially good news. For the first time in 2022, All-Pro linebacker Shaquille Leonard has been marked as questionable, and while his return would still be a shock, there's a chance he can lineup with the team for the first time this season.

Leonard had issues with his back in the off-season, leading to a surgery, and through two weeks, it was very clear that the Colts were missing their leader on the defensive side of the ball, and after a big upset, his return would be another jolt of energy through this very talented locker room.

Colts fans shouldn't get their hopes too high at this point, as there's a definite chance that Leonard is out another week or two, but for a team fighting for first place in the AFC South, they could certainly use their leader back. Even if he isn't at 100%, Leonard would be one of the best linebacker's in the NFL, and given the task ahead of the Colts, it would be fantastic to see him back on the field for the first time in 2022.
