The Indianapolis Colts' season has taken a hit after star cornerback Sauce Gardner suffered a calf injury during Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. Gardner, acquired by the Colts at the NFL trade deadline in a significant deal involving first-round picks and a wide receiver, was taken to the medical tent in the first quarter after a non-contact hit. Mekhi Blackmon stepped in to replace him, and the team later listed Gardner as questionable to return due to the calf issue. Gardner's impact on the Colts has been impressive, allowing just five catches on 10 targets for 38 yards and breaking up two passes in his first two appearances. The Colts' acquisition of the All-Pro defender was seen as a bold move to solidify their young secondary. The Colts' depth chart shows a strong defense, but Gardner's injury raises concerns about their ability to contain opponents. As the team looks to navigate this setback, fans will be eagerly awaiting an update on Gardner's status and the team's chances of returning him to the field.
