The Indianapolis Colts will likely be without one of their brightest young defenders when they face the Denver Broncos on Sunday. Defensive end Laiatu Latu, who has quickly emerged as a difference-maker on the Colts’ defensive line, is dealing with a hamstring injury and is considered “unlikely to play”, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

Rapoport added that the injury is “not a major one”, but the team intends to take the cautious route. Latu was listed as questionable heading into the weekend after being limited in Friday’s practice, following two straight days of sitting out. While his progress was enough to leave a glimmer of hope, the Colts appear unwilling to risk aggravating the injury early in the season.
