Laiatu Latu is, by all accounts, rounding into form as the second half of the 2024 season progresses. The Colts’ 2024 first-round pick became the first defender taken off the board at No. 15, and although he had an inconsistent start to his rookie campaign, Latu has taken off in recent weeks.
Fresh off his best game of the season since Week 3 versus the Chicago Bears, Latu shined bright amidst a dark day against the Lions. Per NextGen Stats, Latu led all Colts vs the Lions with six pressures, two QB hits, two QB hurries, and a strip-sack.
