  • Colts' DeForest Buckner: Production hurt by injury in 2024

    Buckner tallied 61 tackles, including 6.5 sacks, along with a defensed pass over 12 games during the regular season.

    After playing in every regular-season game for Indianapolis during the previous three campaigns, Buckner missed five contests in 2024 due to an ankle injury. He remained productive when healthy, though, ranking second on the Colts in sacks and finishing with just 1.5 fewer than he logged in each of the previous two seasons. Buckner signed a two-year contract extension last April and should be a vital part of Indianapolis' defensive line again in 2025.

  • Colts' DeForest Buckner: Gets another sack Sunday

    Buckner recorded seven tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's 25-24 win at New England.

    Buckner's sack came on a third down in the red zone to hold the Patriots to a field goal on their first drive. He has been as efficient as ever as a pass rusher when healthy this season, keeping him on the IDP map for the fantasy playoffs in some formats.

  • Colts' DeForest Buckner: Practices in full Thursday

    Buckner (foot) was a full practice participant Thursday.

    Buckner was listed as a DNP on Wednesday due to a foot issue, but he was able to return to Thursday's practice without any restrictions and should be good to go against the Jets on Sunday. In his last three outings since returning from injured reserve, Buckner has logged 17 tackles (nine solo), including 2.0 sacks.

  • Colts' DeForest Buckner: Begins Week 11 prep with absence

    Buckner didn't practice Wednesday due to a foot injury.

    Buckner played a season-high 57 defensive snaps and recorded eight total tackles in Sunday's loss to the Bills, but he may have hurt his foot in the process. The veteran defensive tackle will look to put in a full practice by Friday to help erase any concerns about his status heading into Sunday's game against the Jets.
