INDIANAPOLIS — The Indianapolis Colts can be with out beginning cornerback JuJu Brents for the foreseeable future.
Brents, a 2023 second-round decide and a participant into whom the Colts have invested an excessive amount of hope, suffered a knee damage in Sunday’s loss to the Houston Texans and was positioned on injured reserve Tuesday.

Brents now should sit out no less than 4 video games, however a crew supply confirmed to ESPN that the damage may sideline him for the rest of the season.
Brents, 24, was capable of end Sunday’s sport, the supply stated, however additional examination revealed the extent of the injury. Surgical procedure can be required to restore the difficulty, and a timeline can be established after the process is carried out.
The damage leaves a skinny Colts secondary in an much more precarious spot. It doubtless will press into motion Dallis Flowers, a third-year participant who’s coming off an Achilles damage suffered final season. He was inactive in Week 1.
The Colts just lately claimed Samuel Womack III off waivers from the San Francisco 49ers. He didn’t play any defensive snaps in his first sport with the Colts.
