Indianapolis Colts defensive end Samson Ebukam suffered a torn Achilles tendon during practice, ending his season just three days into training camp. Ebukam, who led the Colts with 9.5 sacks last season, was a key free-agent acquisition in 2023. His absence will place additional pressure on other defensive ends, including Kwity Paye, Dayo Odeyingbo, and first-round pick Laiatu Latu. Despite the Colts' depth at the defensive line, the loss of Ebukam is significant for a unit that ranked fifth in sacks last year. The injury also comes at a time when Odeyingbo is dealing with a calf issue, which may further test the Colts' defensive resilience.
