Colts Happy With Shaquille Leonard's Progress
2 years agoThe Indianapolis Colts are optimistic about the progress that linebacker Shaquille Leonard (back) is making after having a second surgery on his back last year. "Shaq has been progressing well," new head coach Shane Steichen said. "I'm not going to put a timetable on his return." Leonard is a three-time first-team All-Pro who is entering his age-27 season as one of the leaders on defense for Indy, but he's also trying to get back to the player he was before two back surgeries in 2022. "Not only are the nerves re-firing, they're just strengthening everything back up now," Leonard said after last season ended. The Colts will likely take it slow with Leonard this summer, but if he can return to his pre-injury form, it will be a huge boost to the Colts defense and for those drafting in IDP leagues.
