The Indianapolis Colts entered Sunday’s game with one of the best pass-blocking offensive lines in the NFL, having only surrendered 16 sacks all season. They had a veteran stalwart at left tackle in Anthony Castonzo, and Braden Smith manning the right tackle position. But neither would play against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Heinz Field.
Smith would be placed on the Reserve/Covid-19 List in the middle of last week. Toward the end of the week, the Colts announced that Castonzo would be ruled out for the game due to injury. Which is how they ended up starting Will Holden and Chaz Green at left and right tackle, respectively.
