Colts' DeForest Buckner and Laiatu Latu Suffer Injuries in Loss to Packers

Both key defensive players were forced to leave the game, with Buckner's ankle injury appearing more severe.

DeForest Buckner left the game in the third quarter with a right ankle injury and was carted off the field after being unable to put weight on his leg.
Rookie defensive end Laiatu Latu exited in the fourth quarter with a hip injury and is awaiting further evaluation.
X-rays on Buckner's ankle were negative, but an MRI is needed to determine the full extent of the injury.
Buckner was already limited to third downs due to a back injury and has a history of playing through significant injuries.
The Colts' defense, already struggling against the run, faces further challenges with the potential loss of their two best pass rushers.
