Colts mid-season awards: Best defensive player

A lot has happened in the first 8 games this season. The Colts lost a quarterback, another one got hurt, and the whole team seemed to be on the injury report at one point. The defense has played surprisingly well at times this year though. There have been a lot of good performances.

No player has been better through the first half of this season than Justin Houston. Houston was signed as a big free agent from Kansas City. The Colts looked to him to give them a consistent pass rush. That’s what he’s done so far in his time in Indy.
