The Indianapolis Colts removed linebacker Shaquille Leonard from the PUP list, which means he’s eligible to practice right now with the team.
While Leonard may still be at least a few weeks away from making his regular season debut, as he ramps up his physical activity and conditioning, this is an encouraging update regarding the positive progress of his recovery from offseason back surgery.
Leonard may return to the football field sooner than initially expected—as it was starting to look like it may be a prolonged absence for the Colts’ 4x NFL All-Pro linebacker.
