Leonard has played just 16 snaps all season and isn’t showing a sign of returning anytime soon. It hinders the run defense, which could spell disaster with Tennessee Titans star running back Derrick Henry as the opposition this Sunday. It will be an all-important AFC South clash this weekend, as the winner will get sole possession of first place in the division.

In 2022, Leonard appeared in just one game, recording two tackles against the Tennessee Titans in Week 4. His practice designations will be something to monitor throughout next week as the Colts prepare for the Washington Commanders in Week 8.
