Colts guard Will Fries to have surgery for serious tibia injury

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Colts right guard Will Fries sustained a serious right tibia injury in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars and will undergo surgery Sunday night in Jacksonville, coach Shane Steichen said.

Fries was injured with 5:22 left in the third quarter of the 37-34 loss when he, while run blocking for running back Trey Sermon, got caught in between two Jaguars defenders in a pile and saw his leg bend awkwardly.

The team's medical staff attended to Fries on the field and ultimately placed his leg in an air cast, indicating a possible fracture.
