Cleared for Week 17 The Colts reinstated Leonard (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
Impact Leonard was aided by the recent change in the NFL's COVID-19 return-to-play protocol, which allows unvaccinated players who test positive for the virus to rejoin their respective teams if asymptomatic or showing diminished symptoms at the conclusion of a five-day isolation period. Under the previous rule, Leonard would have had to complete a 10-day quarantine following his positive test, which came shortly before last Saturday's win over the Cardinals. Instead of missing two games, Leonard will now return to the team facility for practice the next two days, setting him up to play a normal snap count this weekend against the Raiders. The fourth-year linebacker has remained a high-end IDP option in 2021, totaling 107 tackles, six forced fumbles, three interceptions and two fumble recoveries through 14 games.

Has chance to play Week 17 Leonard (illness), who was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 Saturday, will be eligible to play Sunday against the Raiders if he's asymptomatic or showing improvement in his recovery...
Impact As an unvaccinated player who tested positive for the virus, Leonard was slated to face a 10-day quarantine, but that timeline was cut in half Tuesday, when the NFL and NFL Players Association reached an agreement to set isolation time at five days for all players who test positive for COVID-19, regardless of vaccination status. Though Leonard wasn't available for the Colts' Week 16 win over the Cardinals and is expected to remain away from the team through at least Thursday, he should be ready to go by Sunday so long as his symptoms have resolved while he's in isolation. The fourth-year linebacker has tallied 107 tackles, seven pass breakups, six forced fumbles, three interceptions and two fumble recoveries through 14 games this season.
