INDIANAPOLIS -- The winless Colts placed Pro Bowl defensive tackle DeForest Buckner on injured reserve Tuesday with a right high ankle sprain, the team announced.
The news is a blow to a reeling Colts defense that has been bombarded by opponents' rushing attacks through two games, allowing a league-worst 474 rushing yards to the Houston Texans and Green Bay Packers.
Buckner will miss a minimum of four games, easily the longest absence of his impressive career. The nine-year veteran has missed just one game to injury in his career.
