The Indianapolis Colts’ defense will be looking to build off the momentum they established last season, but the group will have their work cut out for them following the offseason departures of linebacker Anthony Walker and edge rushers Justin Houston and Denico Autry.
Speaking strictly in terms of the linebacker position, the pressure will be on Bobby Okere to fill Walker’s shoes as Darius Leonard’s partner in crime. While Okereke logged a 66% snap share last campaign, he only started eight games and that number figures to double in 2021.
