Colts head coach Shane Steichen said Thursday rookie cornerback Justin Walley sustained a torn ACL and will miss the 2025 season.
Walley exited Tuesday's joint practice with the Baltimore Ravens and did not return.
A third-round pick (No. 80 overall), Walley had turned heads during training camp. The Minnesota product had worked alongside veteran cornerbacks Kenny Moore II and Charvarius Ward with the Colts' first-team defense throughout camp, and Walley made plays both at outside corner and in the slot.
"Huge blow," Steichen said. "I think he was having a hell of a camp. His man coverage skills were great, he was making a ton of plays in practice too before it happened."
Cornerbacks JuJu Brents and Jaylon Jones have both missed practices recently with hamstring injuries. Steichen said
