Colts' Ahmed Injury Likely Season-Ending After Tackle

Indianapolis Colts running back Salvon Ahmed suffered a severe lower right leg injury during a developmental training camp session after a banned hip-drop tackle by rookie safety Trey Washington. The incident happened during a live-tackling drill, and Ahmed was immediately placed in an air cast and taken to a hospital for X-rays. The team gathered in support, with a field prayer held for Ahmed’s recovery. Head coach Shane Steichen reiterated the team's opposition to hip-drop tackles and expressed sympathy for both players involved, noting that Washington was distraught. Practice was briefly paused and later resumed after discussions with team leaders to maintain developmental opportunities. The Colts have not released an official prognosis, but the injury is expected to sideline Ahmed for an extended period, possibly ending his season.
