INDIANAPOLIS -- The last time the Indianapolis Colts faced the Tennessee Titans -- some 33 days ago -- their starting quarterback was limited in the pocket by two sprained ankles and their All-Pro linebacker moved around like he was on the decline of his career because he, too, was also dealing with an ankle injury.
The Colts walked off the field at Nissan Stadium Sept. 26 with a 25-16 loss, their third straight to open the season.
But now, quarterback Carson Wentz is playing some of his best football in years and linebacker Darius Leonard said he feels about “80% better” than he felt in late September.
