Indianapolis Colts cornerback Vontae Davis has been ruled out for Sunday's season opener against the Los Angeles Rams with a groin injury.

Per Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan, Colts head coach Chuck Pagano announced Davis would miss Week 1.

Davis injured his groin on Aug. 29, and Pagano told reporters it was "significant."

The Colts are starting the 2017 season banged up, with Davis joining quarterback Andrew Luck as two of the team's key players on the sidelines for the opener.

Davis has been one of the Colts' best defensive players since being acquired in a trade with the Miami Dolphins prior to the 2012 season.
