Availability
The Colts' D/ST logged two sacks and allowed 33 points in Sunday night's overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Fantasy Impact
Indianapolis' defense looked bad for a second-straight week on Sunday night. They weren't able to force a single turnover against the Chiefs and ended up allowing 33 points over the course of the night, which was enough to give Kansas City the win in overtime. This unit should not be played in most fantasy leagues for the foreseeable future, even in more favorable matchups.
The Colts D/ST forced one turnover (one fumble recovery) while also registering two sacks in a 41-23 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1.
Fantasy Impact
The unit had no answers for a dynamic Ravens offense in the season opener, allowing 506 offensive yards highlighted by four rushing touchdowns in the win. The defense will be difficult to trust in Week 2 against a Kansas City Chiefs offense led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes and free-agent acquisition Kenneth Walker III.
The Colts D/ST allowed 38 points on 339 total yards with one interception, one sack and two fumble recoveries on Sunday against the Texans.
Fantasy Impact
It was a rough finish to end the season for a Colts defense that battled injuries all year.
The Colts D/ST allowed 23 points on 370 total yards with one interception, one fumble recovery and two sacks on Sunday against the Jaguars.
Fantasy Impact
It was just two rushing touchdowns by Trevor Lawrence that the Colts allowed. They will close the season in Week 18 against the Texans.
The Colts defense surrendered 41 points on 440 yards of total offense, coming up with one sack and one interception in Monday's 48-27 loss to the 49ers.
Fantasy Impact
The 49ers got one of their six touchdowns from their defense Monday. The other five, as well as two field goals, came against the Colts defense. The Indy unit was burned for nearly 300 yards and five scores through the air. It also allowed 145 yards on the ground. The Colts are not recommended for a matchup with the red-hot Jaguars in Week 17.
