Hits COVID-19 list The Colts placed Leonard (illness) on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday.

Impact Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, Leonard tested positive for the virus and is unvaccinated, so not only will he miss Saturday's game at Arizona, but a Week 17 matchup against the Raiders as well as he enters a 10-day quarantine. This is a huge blow for those in leagues with IDPs, as Leonard has supplemented his 107 tackles with six forced fumbles, three interceptions and two fumble recoveries in 14 contests this season. Some combination of Zaire Franklin and E.J. Speed likely will take on Leonard's assignments over the next two contests.
