The Indianapolis Colts placed defensive tackle DeForest Buckner on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday, the team announced.
Buckner has racked up 41 tackles, 2.5 sacks, one forced fumble, and a fumble recovery through 10 games.
The Colts could be down two of their best defensive linemen, with Denico Autry also on the team’s COVID list.
Indianapolis is preparing for an important AFC South showdown against the Tennessee Titans. The Colts came away victorious in the previous matchup, winning 34-17.
If Buckner is unavailable for Sunday’s matchup, expect defensive tackles Tyquan Lewis and Taylor Stallworth to receive more playing time.
