The Indianapolis Colts have been patient in Malik Hooker’s return from an anterior collateral ligament injury suffered in October of last season.
It’s paying off, and it was evident in the Colts’ preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers.
According to Pro Football Focus, Hooker was the second-highest graded player on defense for Indianapolis, just one spot behind Ryan Delaire — who just signed with the Colts this month.
Delaire, a player that has been impressive in a short amount of time, graded out at 92.
