Oct 19 (Field Level Media) – Indianapolis Colts cornerback Sauce Gardner is ​week-to-week with a mild calf ‌strain sustained in Sunday’s 26-20 home loss to the Tennessee Titans, NFL Network reported on Monday.

Gardner, acquired ‌from ​the New York ⁠Jets at the trade ⁠deadline last November for two first-round picks and receiver Adonai Mitchell, was hurt in the ​third quarter. He attempted to return to the game ⁠but was unable ⁠to do so.

In 10 games with ⁠the ‌Colts dating back to ⁠last season, the 25-year-old ​Gardner ‌has 33 tackles and ​seven pass ⁠breakups. In 65 career games with the Jets (2022-25) and Colts, he has 234 tackles, three interceptions, 53 PBUs and one sack.
