Colts DT DeForest Buckner Set to Return vs. Packers

Key Details

According to Jordan Schultz of The Score, Colts defensive tackle DeForest Buckner is expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Packers.

Buckner has been dealing with an ankle injury that has kept him out of the past two games.

The Colts are hoping that Buckner's return will provide a boost to their defense, which has struggled in recent weeks.

Buckner suffered a high ankle sprain in Week 2 against the Jaguars.

He missed the next two games against the Chiefs and Titans.

Buckner practiced in a limited capacity this week and is expected to be a game-time decision.

Buckner is one of the Colts' best defensive players.

He is a disruptive force in the middle of the defense and can generate pressure on the quarterback.

The Colts have allowed an average of 30 points per game in Buckner's absence.

If Buckner is able to play, it will be a major boost for the Colts' defense.

He will help to improve the team's pass rush and run defense.

The Colts are hoping that Buckner's return will help them turn their season around.
