Gets first NFL sack Latu had one total tackle but it was a key strip sack that forced a turnover late in Sunday's win over Chicago. He also had a pass defensed.

Impact It was Latu's first career sack and came at a key point in the fourth quarter. Latu played on 35 of the defense's 90 snaps and had five total pressures on the quarterback, according to Pro Football Focus, so he should soon see an increase in playing time and sacks.

SEPTEMBER 22 • COLTS.COM

Good to go for Week 3 Latu (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears.

Impact Latu opened the week with back-to-back DNPs, but he earned a questionable tag after practicing in a limited capacity Friday. The rookie first-round pick will suit up for Sunday's game and provide rotational depth at defensive end behind starters Kwity Paye and Tyquan Lewis.

SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Gets questionable tag Latu (hip) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.

Impact Latu sustained a hip injury in the Colts' Week 2 loss against the Packers. The rookie first-round pick logged back-to-back DNPs to start the week, but he was able to practice in a limited capacity Friday to give himself a shot at suiting up Sunday. If Latu cannot play, Dayo Odeyingbo would serve as the Colts' top rotational defensive end behind starters Kwity Paye and Tyquan Lewis.

SEPTEMBER 20 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM

Stays sidelined Latu (hip) will not practice Wednesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Impact Latu suffered the injury in last Sunday's loss to the Packers, but it wasn't expected to be anything serious. His absence from practice Wednesday doesn't necessarily change that, but it's possible he may not be ready to return in Week 3. Better clarity on his chances of playing this Sunday against the Bears should come Thursday or Friday.

SEPTEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Should be OK Latu, who left Sunday's loss to the Packers early with a hip injury, is expected to be fine moving forward, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports.

Impact Latu is expected to undergo further tests Monday to confirm those expectations, but in the meantime should be considered questionable for Week 3 against the Bears. The 2024 first-round selection picked up his first career tackle and fumble recovery before exiting against Green Bay, and if healthy, could see a larger role this Sunday if DeForest Buckner (ankle) is unable to play.
