Odeyingbo (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against Miami. Odeyingbo picked up a hamstring injury in Week 6 against the Titans. He finished the week as a DNP on Friday, but the 2021 second-round pick will play through the injury for Sunday's game. Odeyingbo has accrued 11 tackles (six solo), including 2.0 sacks, and one forced fumble through the first six games of the regular season.
Odeyingbo (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins. Odeyingbo downgraded from limited practice Thursday to a DNP on Friday, suggesting he could be trending in the wrong direction ahead of Sunday's contest. If the Vanderbilt product is unable to play through his hamstring issue in Week 7, expect 2024 first-round pick Laiatu Latu to start opposite Kwity Paye as part of Indianapolis' top defensive-end duo.
Odeyingbo (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday. Odeyingbo returned in the second half of the Colts' Week 6 win over the Titans after sustaining a hamstring injury earlier in the game. However, Wednesday's DNP indicates he's still nursing the issue and could be in jeopardy of missing more time. Odeyingbo will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to suit up for the Colts' Week 7 matchup against the Dolphins.
Odeyingbo (hamstring) has returned to Sunday's game against the Titans, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports. Odeyingbo is available to start the third quarter after leaving the game in the second quarter due to a hamstring injury. He recorded one QB hit in the first half and has 2.0 sacks on the season.
Odeyingbo has left Sunday's game against the Titans due to a hamstring injury, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports. Odeyingbo's exit will be another blow to the Colts' defensive line. Isaiah Land and Laiatu Latu will be tasked with seeing an uptick in work while the Vanderbilt product is sidelined.
Odeyingbo tallied three tackles (one solo), including 1.5 sacks, during Sunday's 27-24 win over the Steelers. Odeyingbo had a solo sack on quarterback Justin Fields for a four-yard loss late in the second quarter, and the former followed that up with a split sack with Tyquan Lewis (calf) just four plays later. Odeyingbo has logged 50 defensive snaps in each of the last two games, which coincides with Kwity Paye missing time due to a quadriceps injury. Through the first four games of the regular season, Odeyingbo has accumulated nine tackles (five solo), including 2.0 sacks.
Odeyingbo had one total tackle in Sunday's win over Chicago. Odeyingbo played on 62 of the defense's 90 snaps, but had little production with one tackle and just two QB hurries. He's having a slow start to the season with just 0.5 sacks and only six tackles in three games. The 2021 second-round pick had a breakout season last year with eight sacks.
Odeyingbo (calf) returned to practice Wednesday, 93.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports. Odeyingbo is coming off the best season of his three-year career, finishing 2023 with 38 tackles (22 solo), including 8.0 sacks, two passes defended, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries across 17 regular-season games. Odeyingbo and Kwity Paye are locked in as the Colts' top pass rushers heading into 2024 after Samson Ebukam suffered a torn Achilles' tendon.
