Injury Update On Colts Pro-Bowl Linebacker

He's only played one game this season. 

Indianapolis Colts star linebacker Shaquille Leonard was not listed on the team's injury report Wednesday.

This is a great sign for Leonard as he's missed the past three games due to a broken nose and undergoing surgery in Week 4. 

Shaquille Leonard: “I feel more explosive this week. I feel like a linebacker.”

Leonard will have two more practice opportunities to get a better idea of what his game status will be for Sunday's contest against the Washington Commanders. 

The twenty-seven-year-old linebacker posted 122 total tackles (75 solo), eight forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and four interceptions over 16 games in the 2021 season. 

Leonard's return to the Colts defense will be a big boost to the team, which has struggled to a 3-3-1 record so far this season
